(SPEED RECORD FOR CAMPBELL Error Discovered Which Places Speed Above 300 Miles An Hour Bonneville Sull Flats, Utah, Sept. 4. <U.R) Sib Malcolm Campbell toi;day prepared to return to his na- ' Itive England after establishing a I record of 301.1292 miles per hour | in his racing ear, the Bluebird, on I the salt flat* course here, Campbell said he would sail for j I Englund from New York on the Majestic. Sept. 12. He was undeI elded whether he would ever race ' again. "1 am delighted and believe the > , Bonneville tj-ui k is the best in the , world." he said after being informed he had expected 300 miles an ' hour and attained his long-sought I I goal. "My Bluebird left an indel I ilde mark on this truck, one I am J i proud of; I <lo not know whether ’ll shall ever race again, or come - i here next year, or build a new Bluebird, but I feel the keenest of i pleasure in ex. e-ding my goal of | 300 mill's per hour.” An air of uncertainty was cast j lover the Briton's performance by ‘a conflict of corrections in timing. Campbell was not credited officially with a mark above 300 miles an I i hour until last night, nine hours i after the Bluebird made two trips j i through the measured mile on this I ■blinding desolation of salt. Ted Allen, secretary of the Am-: I erican Automobile Association, is-; ' sued an official statement admitt-' ing that the tiniFiig board had ' made a simple error in computa-, tion. Instead of being timed at 299 875 miles per hour as announc-1 ed after the race, it appeared Camp-1 I bell actually had gone 301.137' miles per hour. After All n had given the correction press men and racing authlorities at the track figured the I time by accepted means of copi- ! putation and reached a figure of ' 301.129. Later contacted by the United 1 Press in Salt Lake City. Allen con i : firmed the latter figure, only carry-' 1 ing the computation a decimal 1 point further, and said the official . average should have been an-1 inounced as 301.1292 miles per hour.' iHe explained the error, stating that during the excitement some•'one had picked up a wrong paper) while preparing his announcement , for the press. The fractional discrepancy made : little difference in actual speed of ' the car since there was no doubt ! the Bluebird exceeded 300 miles I .' per hour. | During the run yesterday on the salt flats headwinds and motor 1 fumes entered the cockpit and blinded Campbell temporarily. Sir Malcolm was highly enthusiastic over the smooth racing surface of the Bonneville salt flats and declared there was no doubt I but that this was the best track I in the world. Never before had he had such , a long straightaway nor a course so perfectly level. The salt cooled his tires greatly despite the fact that one of the casings blew out yesterday at more than 300 | miles an hour. ■ o MUSSOLINI DEFIES CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE • would be a world calamity.

Mussolini no longer regards the Italian-E' iopian friendship pact of. . 1928 as binding. "The Italian government,” he said, "has been obliged to conclude that the treaty of 1928 has failed I in prac tise to guarantee the peace- ■ ful existence-of the Italian colonies. "Therefore Italy can no longer count upon the provisions of that treaty. Nor. when a country like ( Ethiopia is involved, can Italy rely. lon purely legal guarantees to ful-j fill the duty of banishing forever the dangers menacing her colonI ies.” Aloisi announced that Italy refuses to betreated on an equal , footing with Ethiopia before the, I league, because Ethiopia violated iter obligations as a member of the [ league. In a remark which Gaston Jeze of Ethiopia interpreted as an Italian move to oust Ethiopia from the Teague, Aloisi said: “All solidarity with a state which allows such abuse to exist within its borders must be refused by civilized nations.” In an address preceding that of Aloisi, Premier Pierre Laval of France announced that his country would fully support the council. ’ He expressed confidence that a peaceful solution would be found, “which would assure Italy the satisfaction she would claim without disregarding the essential rights of the Ethiopian government.” expressed satisfaction with Eden's statement that Britain remains loyal to the collective systejn among nations. o TROPICAL TOLL COM-INUF.D FROM PAGE ONE again.

THE HIGHWAYS OF BUYING “Follow the highway markings and you can’t go wrong.’ ... That’s the advice the Automobile Club gives you before starting on a motor trip. You follow the wellknown, well-marked roads. And you teach your destination the safest, most comfortable way. V, hy not follow the same rule in your shopping? Why not stick to the “highways of buying?” They have been just as carefully plotted, and are just as carefully marked as the great motor roads you’ve come to depend upon. Marked by the trade-names of reliable, advertised products. The next time you go shopping follow these “highways.” Before you start, look through the advertisements in these columns. Pick out the products you want. Notice the trade-names tkat identify them. And then ask for them, by name. * * * The advertisements are sign-posts to guide you to the best and most reliable merchandise.

GIANTS START WESTERN TRIP Battle For National League Lead Is Baseball s Feature New York. Sept. 4 (U.R) The New York Giants open today their last western campaign of the season. a three week drive which may send them home within easy reach of the National league pennant or drop them Into the also-rans. League leaders by seven games when they last went west in July, the Giants find themselves now two games behind the first place St. Louis Cardinals and only half a game ahead of the Chicago Cubs as they begin the 16-game western invasion with the Cincinnati Reds today. After they finish with the Reds, the Giants have four games with each of the other teams of the first division— Pittsburgh. St. louis, and Chicago in that order. They return home Sept. 21 to finish the season with five games against Brooklyn and seven with Boston. The Giants, to a man. agree that the team to beat is St. Louis. They figure th* Cubs, who have played more games than the Giants and Cards, are definitely handicapped by the fact that they have lost six more than New York and five more than St. louis.
