"White God” of New Jungle Kingdom
The secret of the mysterious legend of a "white god" ruling over a jungle kingdom in the unexplored Brazilian jungle is now beLieved to be known. Investigators are convinced that the "white god" is Paul Redfern, the famous U.S. airman who vanished ten vears ago while flying from the United States to Brazil. It is believed that Redfern, crashing in the jungle, was found and tended by Indians. Three men and a woman, under the leadership of Mr Thomas J. Waldeck. have set out into the interior to investigate. Strange rumours have recently filtered into villages on the Venezuelan border, telling of a wonderful new kingdom created under the inspiration of a “miracle-worker who appeared out of the sky." With all the fantasy woven into these tales the description of the central figure always bears a weird resemblance to that of the missing airman.
