Los Angeles, April 4. —'.U.R> — The ] ] homing plane, a modern counter-1 part of the homing pigeon, has I been perfected by Gerhard Fisher., I consulting radio engineer for West|ern Air Express, and placed at this I disposal of naval and military auth-] orities. ■ \ The invention is a development of direction finding in the radio I field and readily converts any plane whether of the commercial or tight-1 I lug type, into a veritable homing I I “bird.'’ : This radio "pathfinder" will obvi-l ] ate such occurrences as happened: ’during the recent Pacific naval' maneuvers when two pursuit squad ■ rons were lost tor a short time. L’.l the pilot will have to do in | i future is to tune tn on his direction finding set and a little needle will ' indicate his course back to the ; mother ship, or airport from which! Ihe came, or wants to go to. Any deviation is immediately re-1 .corded on the dial by the swinging | of the needle off the direction originally indicated. | Recent tests have proven thatj the set can pick up stations from the ground at a distance of 1,000 miles, while an air test worked a distance of 350 miles. Fisher says.' however, that the distance while operating in the air can be in-! creased. The set weighs in all 18 pounds ! and insofar as Its use commercial-] ly is concerned requires no ini provements other than what new Inventions will bring forth. Adaptability to fighting planes.] however, has to ’be perfected. At, I the set is constructed flow, the' aerial would be in the way of machine gun bullets. Fisher is working on a device that will make the unit adaptable to this type plane.

■ rot cd ion promoted by the While , House conference, called by I’resi-1 dent Hoover last November and, by Harry Leslie in Indi-, ina last January. Following the state conference,' which was attended by several ’ Adams <. ounty' people, it was urg-1 ed that individual conferences be hchl in every county in the state. Sev-ral of the counties, including Allen county, have already held Hr- contWencoi;. Huntington county is to hold its meeting next i week and Bishop Noll will prols ably attend both conferences, i Tilting here from Huntington for the evening session. • A general committee, planning the program and places for holdng the meeting Is composed of i Uui> p, E. Striker, county , superintendent of schools; M. F. V

FUNERAL PYRE IS PREPARED PA,!E ONE in a burial ditch back of the centetdry,' five on the public dump; ■ three near the water works and J two in Crater fake behind the pros! dentlal palace. The strain oh the refugees as ’ well as the Marino forces and the ' National Guards was demonstrated L last night by seven shootings. A ’ guard at the water tanks which . formerly supplied the city, shot

ifour persons attempting to take polluted water. The natives had been warned repeatedly against using the water, but the shortage forced them to extremes—with the resultant danger, of an epidemic. Earlier, another guard shot three I looters who were fleeing from the ruins of the city. One of them had $7,000 on his person. The evacuation of the last groups of American women and children' was resumed. The transport ■Chaumont at Corinto, where they were taken, will carry about 150 of them to the Canal Zone. The others will be taken to the United States by other ships. "I have never seen a city so utjtfcrly destroyed as Managua," said Swift after ills first survey of the! | capital. He commented on flie orderly 1 and voluntary evacuation of the populace. Only about 15,000 refugees from the city are left in this | vicinity and they are being cared! |for by the relief committee which I Swift organized after conferences with American Minister Matthew Hanna and President Jose M. Moncada. Swift said there would be no need . for more nurses, although there are about 2,000 wounded among the • refugees. Many of the natives who f have not gone to other cities have ' returned to their damaged homes, ■ where they are living in distressing ' circumstances. Swift said there was no danger, so far as he could see, of an epidemic, due to the precautibns alleady taken.- He pointed out that ) the present dry season was not likely to prove harmful to natives . living In Ute fields or in damaged - homes, and that such conditions i- could continue without danger un- : til the rainy season in May or '1 June. • I "The problem can be solved then," ho said, expressing the opinsiittn tiiat Managua probably would (• never he rebuilt. dl Rear Admiral Arthur St. Clair A Smuh, from the cruiser Rochester, 111 arrived by airplane and conferred tlwliu officials here about supplies.
