You know how a fleet was sent across the Atlantic to search for me, how the restrictions against crossing thirty to one hundred seventy-five were removed forever, and how the officers were brought to Peking, arriving upon the very day that Victory and I were married at the imperial court. My return to Pan-America was very different from anything I could possibly have imagined a year before.
These are the utility naval vessels that have transformed the navies of old, which burdened the peoples with taxes for their support, into the present day fleets of self-supporting ships that find ample time for target practice and gun drill while they bear freight and the mails from the continents to the far-scattered island of Pan-America.
Speculation was discouraged. For two hundred years the Eastern Hemisphere had been wiped from the maps and histories of Pan-America. Its mention in fiction, even, was forbidden. Our ships of peace patrol thirty and one hundred seventy-five.
These children had, doubtless, been too young to retain in their memories to transmit to their children any but the vaguest suggestion of the cataclysm which had overwhelmed their parents. Professor Cortoran, since my return to Pan-America, has suggested another theory which is not entirely without claim to serious consideration.
I found Teresa de Leon registered at the Pan-America, as Craig had surmised. Such inquiries as I was able to make about the hotel did not show a trace of reason for believing that Jose Barrios had been numbered among her visitors.
He was astounded when I told him that I was a Pan-American.

It was a half question. "You are not from across the water there?" "No," I assured her. "I am from Pan-America, far away to the west. Have you ever heard of Pan-America?" She shook her head in negation.
"When when you lost out that time five years ago on 'Pan-America' and I seen how Linger made a fortune out of it, I says to myself, 'It can never happen again. You remember the next January when you got your raise to fifty and I wouldn't move out of this flat, and instead gave up having Annie in, that was what I had in my head, Harry.
Remember it is quite as important that you should tell him all as it is for him to tell you." She looked at me a moment, then drew from a fold of her waist a yellow paper. It was a telegram. I took it and read: Beware of Teresa de Leon, Hotel Pan-America. "You know her?" I asked, folding the telegram, but not returning it. Eulalie looked at me frankly and shook her head.
My boy's going to get that right start." "But, Harry, college will " "I seen money in 'Pan-America' long before Unger ever dreamed of producing it. I sicked him onto 'The Official Chaperon' when every manager in town had turned it down. I went down and seen 'em doing 'The White Elephant' in a Yiddish theater and wired Unger out in Chicago to come back and grab it for Broadway. Where's it got me?
