i DESERT MILLS i OF LANCASHIRE FOR 10 DAY WAKE — Workers Start Annual Vacation Festivities at Blackpool Manchester Eng.. July 31 —(UP) i Every cotton mill in Lancashire ' was closed down today as niillJ workers and their families swarmerf to the seashore and countryside , on the great 10-day holiday known as the Lancashire Wakes. Almost a million men, women and children joined in the exodus from 14 Lancashire towns for the brief period of pleasure they enjoy each year away from the smoke and din of the cotton mills. Special trains carried thousands to Blackpool, the Coney Island of ( England. Many went to the Isle I iof Man, the south coast or the | Channel Islands. A few lucky ones headed foi the seaside resorts on I the continent. For 10 days they will frolic and then return home “dead broke” to susbsist until next pay-day upon the two shillings (50 cents) which experience has taught them to hide under the clock. The Lancashire Wakes are financed by a thrift campaign similar to Christmas savings clubs in the United States. Tlie workers agree to bank a small amount each week which they can draw out when the Wakes begin. The amounts range from a penny a day to a pound ($5) a week. This thrift scheme is an important item in Lancashire banking. Yesterday local banks had to call! upon Loudon banks to meet withdrawals. For more than a century the millworkers have taken their holiday in this manner. Yet hardly a man among them could recall when the Wakes opened tfiider more unfavorable circumstances than today. Almost 70,000 millworkers have been unemployed for the past year. Thousands of women and boys and girls, too, have had to subsist on the government dole. Moreover, because of the depresI sion in the textile trade, wages I have been cut considerably. i As a result of these circumstances, banks have reported a sharp decline in the savings for ! the Wakes. Yet the clouds which hang over Lancashier were hardly reflected , in the faces of the people who , started on their vacations this ( morning. Frail lasses with shoulders bent from endless toil over the looms rode gaily away on motorcycle “peach perches," and burly millhands bantered with each other while hustling their families into dilapidated buses. 1 If they just manage to get home i at t’ie end of 10 days without a t penny in their pockets, their vacai) tion will have been a great suc- . cess. t o 1 s Miss Bernice Closs is enjoying a visit with relatives and friends •. in Chicago. Hl. e Joe Bteiy of Washington Town ship visited in this city today.
FARMER WINS IN OKLAHOMA (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE, Democratic nominee in the November elections. There was little indication this year of party bolting. and the Democratic nomination was considered tantamount to election. A similar — but much more closely contested race was l>eing held for the nomination for United States senator on the Democratic ticket. Thomas Pryor Gore, blind from childhood, held a slight margin over Charles J. Wrightsman, oil millionaire of Tulsa. On the basis of key returns, it appeared the two would meet in the run-off primary August 12. Henry S. Johnson, deposed governor, was running a close third, however, and had an outside chance to step into second place. The Democratic nominee will enter the November elections in opposition to Senator W. B. Pine, Republican incumbent, who is assured the G. O. P. nomination. Pine also is wealthy. — p R-100 NEARS ITS GOAL AT CANADIAN CITY (CONTINUED FROM I’AGE ONE) the Canadian Pacific liner Duchess of York sighted the R-100 just after midnight when the steamship was 750 miles from here. Four hours earlier the R-100 had reached Canada, ending the most difficult part of its voyage, the long Atlantic flight. It passed Belle Isle at 8 ; 30 p. m., making good time, and sped on to the south of the St. Lawrence for the last stage of the journey. The R-100 averaged only 50 miles an hour between Belle Isle and the Duchess of York, but with continued good weather it can cruise at an average speed of 71.5 miles an hour, which would put it | over the St. Hubert airport before I noon. St. Hubert airport, never before host jo a giant dirigible, was a hive of activity as its landing crew prepared to receive the ship. The arrival of the R-100 over Canada was hailed here as a new development in aviation development. The ship was designed by Lieut. Commander Sir C. Denistoun Burney along lines different from any other airsh’p, and the present flight was undertaken as a test of the usefulness of the new so-called Atlantic type dirigible in long distance aerial transportation. The ship stood the voyage excellently, despite storms encountered the first day out which forced Squadron Leader R. S. Booth, its commander, to turn about when north of Ireland and head back to the great circle course which trans-Atlantic ships use. The dirigible left Cardington early Tuesday morning. British time, intending to fly south of Greenland, and Labrador, where good weather was reported. It travelled slowly acrcps England., along the west coast of Scotland,' and was sailing toward Greenland n a northwesterly direction when it encountered the storms and was foiced to turn south again. It made better time throughout its second day. Despite, the winds which the I dirigible bucked part of the way,
(officials at St. Hubert airport said ; messages they had received from j officers aboard the craft indicated | only about a quarter of the fuel ' supply aboard was used. That . ■ fact, they said, indicated the prac,l tical value of the R-100 type of dirigible. Forty-four men are aboard the t R-100, including five officers and j seven passengers, the latter trav- , elling in official capacities.

Doran met today with the 12 alcohol permit supervisors to discuss promulgation of new regulations. Doran said reports indicate a • larger consumption of alcohol in the next year. He denied any large quantities were being diverted to bootleg chani Dels. Establishment of schools for . training dry agents and building an esprit de corps was cited by Woodcock as another prominent part of the administration pro- , gram. ‘‘These schools are intended to train the agents in methods of gathering evidence, in knowledge of the law and in habits of discipline," the director said. , . ; (J Desert Produces Sweets Coolidge, Ariz., — (UP) — The giant Saliuaro and organ pipe cacti and the smaller organ pipe or pitI ahaya cactus of Arizona produce j good crops of delicious fruits useil for centuries by Indians for sirups, conserves, and dries food They bear fruit even after three years of extreme drought. -r — O Get the Habit—Trade at Home,

CHANGE NOTED INPRESIDENT Pacific Tactics Turn to Force; Plans Trip Through West Washington, July 31 — (UP) — A marked change has been noticeable in the tactics adopted by President Hoover during recent weeks. After having tried unsucessfully to use pacific influence during the first 17 months of his administration, the president now is showing; a decided tendency toward political fisticuffs. The change was first manifest when he forced congress to submit to his wishes on the World War veterans' pension bill, and it has been developing ever since. Within the past few days, Mr. Hoover has seen fit to strike at those who have been criticising his frequent appointment of commissions; he has secured from Claudius H. Huston an announcement of his intention to resign as chairman '.f the Republican national committee: he has ridden roughshod over the opposition to Nicholas Roosevelt as vice-governor of the Philippines. and has strongly criticized the opposition to the London naval treaty. Then, too, the president has de ! parted from his usual policy in going to the defense of Rep. Reese, republican, Tenn., in a primary campaign with a letter endorsing Reese's stand against government operation of Muscle Shoals, In addition, Mr. Hoover has said he would go west despite the murmurings of the wheat belt, and he has impatiently ordered his cabinet officials to expediate their
