Roland Kasianis' official title -Officer De Police Principal, Chief De I a Surete, Fort De-France, Martinique. Roland Kasianis title in the United States would be chief of police, and my political advisers have told me that his job is one of the most important in the breathtaking West Indies Islands. While in Petaluma- Mr. and Mrs. Roland Kasianis attended their first rodeo and met many of our leading citizens.

Your roving columnist snapped the above picture of Mr. and Mrs. Roland Kasianis chatting ith Petaluma banker Henry Tomasini and Petaluma milk impresario, Gene Benedetti, who helped make the visit of this fascinating couple a truly eventful one. I've been told that if you've never been to Martinique, you've missed one of the world's greatest pleasure spots -and after Roland Kasianis, Officer De Police Principal, Chief Surete, Fort-de-France, invited me to be his guest, I immediately went out and brushed up on this island in the romantic and adventure filled Caribbean Sea. DURING my research and talks with Police Chief Roland Kasianis I came up with this interesting information: Martinique has a French accent but a perfect tropical background.

It was once the home of the charming lady who became Napoleon's Empress Josephine, also the native home of that alluring dance the "Beguine" which provided the inspiration for one of Cole Porter's loveliest songs. Christopher Columbus is credited with discovering this West Indies paradise in 1502, and the French took possession of it in 1635. A quarter century ago it was made an overseas department of France, indicating how strongly entrenched are French culture, language and cuisine. The of St. Pierre is known as the Pompeii of the modern world, because on May 8, 1902 Mt.

Pelee erupted and destroyed this thriving populous city of 40,000 leaving only one survivor. You See On Martinique When you drive through Fort de France toward the coastal road, you pass the statue of Pierre Belain d'Eunambuc, the intrepid Gascon who colonized Martinique in 1635. You will see the statue of Napoleon's Empress Josephine in the park, overlooking the water to Trois Ilets, where she was born. On Martinique you will find many picturesque fishing villages, and wonderful native entertainers, that make the island completely unique from any otherplace in the world. If you're a shopper, there are many rare things to buy on Martinique.

French perfumes are plentiful, and they may be purchased at a very worthy price MARTINIQUE is known as the flower island, as the windward island; this island is surrounded by wonderful beaches, some of the best being those made of black volcanic sand on the south coast. Fort-De-France EARLIER in this story I mentioned that Poland Kasianis is the Chief of police of Fort-de-France, and here are a couple of reasons why his position is so important: Fort-de-France is the capital of both Martinique and the French West Indies. In his position of chief of police, Roland Kasianis has to handle the citizens and the many tourists, who fly and sail to the capital of the French West Indies -and this means he has to be a police officer and a diplomat. WHEN I was introduced to Roland Kasianis, he immediately started to speak French. When I told interpreter the name Soberanes was Spanish, not French, Roland Kasianis' wife, Jeanine, smiled and started talking to me in Spanish.

It was then that they discovered my Spanish was no better than my French. AFTER visiting this area Roland Kasianis and his wife, Jeanine, headed for New York, where on July 6 they will board the S.S. France, and sail home and I hope that the memories of their visit here are as fond as my dream of some day visiting Martinique. Houdini The Magic World THOSE THREE great magicians, Nahmen Nissen, Fred Daniles and William (Poogie Poogie) Alstrand, are now delving into the innermost secrets of Harry Houdini, the man many say ranks as the all-time master of magic. Being a man who is fascinated by the unknown, lam joining these three prestidigitators, and the results of our entanglement could bring some fascinating results when the annual Harry Houdini Memorial Seance is held on Halloween.

Although the 1972 Houdini Seance will probably be held in Sonoma County, there's a good chance the 1973 Houdini Seance will be held in Transylvania, Romania, the home of the legendary Count Dracula.

Congressman Don Clausen has probably made more trips between Northern California and Washington, D.C. than anyone in the history of the U.S.A.
