Berlin. June B—(United Press)— Clarence D. Chamberlin and Charles A. Levine may fly back to the L’nit‘cd States, Chamberlin told the United Press today in an interview. “An American organization has offered us SIOO,OOO if we fly back to Roosevelt field,” the flier said. “The offer is so attractive that we are again considering the possibility of returning home by airplane.” j Chamberlin discussed his future planr in Europe and told of offers he had received. “We are also planning to fly to Rome. Paris. London, and are considering a flight to Moscow, possibly pausing at Poland on the way," fie said. Chamberlin said he was not yet certain about Moscow and Poland. He spoke of his mother and the talk he had with her over radio-tele-phone immediately after arriving at Berlin yesterday. “I have suggested Ito my mother that she sail immediately for England and meet me at London, which is her native city,” he said. “Among the hundreds of offers we • have received one is to appear at a circus at home. There are many offers to go into movies, vaodeville. ‘on the stage, on the lecturing platform. and others.” Chamberlin said he was going to be received by President Von Hindenburg and that he would have to go wearing the and * leather sporting jacket which he wore on tite flight over. Criticized By Newspapermen Berlin, June B—(U. P.) —Clarence Chamberlin and Charles Levine were subjected to criticism by German and American newspapermen today when Chancellor Clinton Pocie. of the United States embassy announced at a press conference that the airmen had sold exclusive right to the story of their flight to an American newspaper. * Poole said the fliers would not divulge further details of their flight to the press as a whole.

M. from Von Hindenburg's home in Wilhelmstrassa. Hindenburg congratulated Chamberlin and Levine, expressing admiration for the flight which "was more than a sporting feat because it brings the 'United States and Germany, always bound in Friendship closer together. Tile achievement will be an example of peaceful progress to both Nations. The interview lasted 40 minutes, during which the President asked scores of questions and gave each of his guests silver framed photographs el* himself. U. S.

CUCUMBER BUGS AT WORK ALREADY Best Method of Killing Pest Is Described; Beetles Often Kill Plants Calls for information regarding the lieat way to kill cucumber beetles indicate that residents of Admits county arc already being harassed by tills insistent pest. Although cucumber beetles are not < troublesome some years, it seems that usually they appear to be sitting nearby waiting for the cucumbers to raise their heads above the ground upon*which the beetles immediately devour them. At other times, the Insects-wait until the cucumber has attained considerable growth and a crop seems assured then the pest pounces upon the vegetables and practically devours it over night. Although many preventives and remedies have been suggested, it seems the calcium arcenate and land plaster mixture proves most successful according to information furnished by Purdue University. One pound of calcium arsenate is mixed with twenty pounds of gypsum or land plaster, and the mixture is dusted on the plants. The former material can be obtained at drug stores while the lumber yards have the latter. In applying the material, it is suggested that nail holes be punched in the bottom of a tin can to make a duster. The material should be dusted on the plants from the time they peep through the ground until they are three tit four weeks old. This material is superior to lime in that it sticks better and absolutely will not burn the plants. This material is also used for melon beetles or similar eating insects. It is of no value for cabbage worms, potato-leaf-hoppers or cabbage lice. o —_ GRADE PUPILS GET DIPLOMAS <CO.VH.XI ED FROM PAGE O.XE) marvelous beauties of nature all all of us know.

ATTORNEY WANTS TO ATTEND PROBE Michigan City, Ind., June B—(United8 —(United Press) —The state board of charities was asked today to relax some ’ of the secrecy it has shown about its investigation of D. C. Stephenson’s charges that officers of the state prison here disurlnuinatled him. Robert H. Moore, attorney for Stephenson, made request of a member of the board for permission to attend any session of the inquiry before which Stephenson is summoned.

AUTO BRAKES ARE TESTED tCOXTIXVED FROM PAGE OXK> officers deemed it ncessary. Officers Ayres and Serfght have conducted tests in Portland and Huntington, also, this week. The result was as follows: In Portland, 44 cars had good brakes and 16 had poor brakes. In Huntington, 53 had good brakes and 13 cars were ordered to have their brakes tightened. More 'Stringent Test Here Officer Ayers stated that thetest in Decatur was more stringent, however Inasmuch as the cars were taken off the streets and those participating did not know their cars were to be tested. In Portland, each garage had a car in the test and those owners had previously fixed their brakes. The average of good brakes would naturally be better iu Huntington, Mr. Ayers said, because the country near Huntington has more hills. The cars tested here yesterday were driven to a speed of 20 miles an hour and the brakes were applied. If the car had 4-wheel brakes it was necessary for it to stop within 25 feet, after the brakes were applied. Cars with 2-wheel braks had to stop within 37 feet. If cars failed to meet these requirements a state order was isued for the owner to have the
