AIRWAY PILOTS > WILL OBEY NEW TRAFFICJULES Congestion Necessitates Law to Prevent Crashes in Sky. BY THOMAS L. STOKES United Free* Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.—Congestion on airways, with increased danger of collision, will be a problem of the future, so that the boy Os today who becomes a pilot of tomorrow probably will have to master a much more delicate technique In handling an airplane and ftis book of traffic rules will be more Voluminous than those of today. The Commerce Department has established a set of traffic rules for the air. The young man who aspires to become a pilot must learn a code which rivals in complexity those in the average large city whose streets are thronged with automobiles. Officials expect to add to this set of rules from time to time, so that the air traffic rules of the future probably will be encased In a fair-sized volume. Rules for Stunts There Is a regulation against low ■lying over residential districts in the traffic code, and an offender can be prosecuted. The civil fine is SSOO, and the violator also may be held for criminal action. Over cities and congested areas, a pilot must fly at a sufficient height so that he could make a safe landing beyond the congested area, and at no time can he fly at a height less than 1,000 feet. Acrobatic flying, or “stunt” flying as it is more commonly called, is prohibited over congested districts of cities and can be done over openair assemblages only with the permission of the Secretary of Commerce. It is not allowed over airports or landing fields, or in the Im - mediate vicinity. If a flier stunts on any established airway, he must per.orm his tricks above 2,000 feet from the ground. No pilot of a regular passenger plane is allowed to stunt. Keep to Right As in automobile traffic on city streets, airplanes keep to the right on established airways and the flier crossing the course from the right has the right of way. When two. planes are approaching head-on, and there appears danger of a collision, each plane must change its course so that they will pass on the left of each other. When one plane overtakes another, it must keep out of the way of the plane overtaken. A plane that is landing has the tight of way over planes moving on the ground or taking off. When two planes are maneuvering in preparation to land, the plane at Phe greater height is responsible for avoiding the plane beneath, and jpiust keep out o' the way. PROPOSED BUDGET FOR COUNTY TO BE HIGHER Compilation of Requests Under Way, Sajte Auditor Compilation of the proposed county budget for next year is under way it was said today by County Auditor Harry Dunn. Appropriation jequests from various county departments have been received. The proposed budget, which Dunn laid will be higher than this year’s, will be submitted to the county council Sept. 6. One item, In addition to regular mintenance, will be the cost of refunding taxes paid under the now Illegal horizontal tax increase of 1919, 20 and 21.

The PASSING PROCESSION

_By VOLTA TORREY

NEWS of the WEEK Boiled Down

The stage was all set. Laborers had gone on strike. Reds had paraded. Protests from perspns of such varied importance as Henry Ford, Mme. Nungesser, William S. Green, and obscure Italian peasants, had rang in the ears of Massachusetts.

Guards were stationed everywhere. Subway passengers were trembling with fear. And the bombs were exploding their prelude. Then the execution of Sacco and Vanzetti was called off for another twelve days. In addition to the respite wrenched from Gov. Puller at the eleventh hour, defense workers have made progress in the courts. Attorneys will appear before the full bench of the Supreme Court with their plea next Tuesday. Meanwhile, personally conducted tours to the scene of the crime are being offered Boston visitors by wealthy liberals. While the courts thumb the thick files on the case, sightseers will be visiting South Braintree, where the paymaster and guard were shot, the Stoughton shoe factory where Sacco worked, and the neighborhood where Vanzetti peddled fish. Vanzetti predicts: “The court will do nothing. “There is no use,” Sacco told doctors who urged him to eat. “I will do it my way.” Vanzetti predicts: "The court will do nothing.

OUR HOOSIER DRY DRAMA The decision of the Indiana Supreme Court that Supt. E. S. Shumaker of the Anti-Saloon League, should serve 60 days for contempt of court, arouses more interest locally —where many are dry but few are red—than the Sacco-Vanzetti battle. Shumaker has two gxoups of allies. One consists of crusading drys. They send in money, and seek publicity by offering to go to jail in his stead. • The other consists of men concerned with the rights of free speech They attack the theory that “the judge can do no wrong” and battle for independence. Shumaker’s attorney, James Bingham, Sr., will present several motions before the State Supreme Court next Thursday, and may appeal to the United States Supreme Court. LINDY, JACKSON, FORD Governor Jackson dismounted and greeted Lindbergh Tuesday at the Indianapolis airport. The flier (who resents the praise of the W. C. T. U. and allied gangs so much that he smoked a cigaret over in Cincinnati just to shut them up) sat at a banquet in the evening between Governor Jackson and Mayor Di tVrtli. The fact that a ghost of his fighting father, who devoted his life to scouring politico, did not appear at the banquet proves that there are no ghosts. The Governor had nothing to say at the dinner. Ditto Statehou^e. The next day Lindbergh visited Detroit and took Henry Ford for his first airplane ride. Ford had plenty to say, and told the colonel, “I want you to consider my house your other home whenever you are in this vicinity.” Ford advertised his new models further this week by letting them whisk through Detroit streets just a trifle too fast for reporters to note full particulars. He boasts that they will make 50 miles an hour with ease. OCEAN AIR DERBY The Dole race to Hawaii and the Costes-Levine race from Paris to New York were to have started Friday, but both were postponed. The planes in San Francisco weren’t in shape for the flight, and the weather west of Paris wasn’t fit. The Dole contest for $35,000 already has cost four lives. Three died when one of the monoplanes entered crashed during a test flight early in the week, and a fourth died when another entrant fell late Friday. Os the fifteen entrants, only about half will start. Mildred Doran, Michigan schoolmarm, is still in the list. Over in Paris, Levine has been quarreling with his pilot, as usual, but is determined to fly home aheqd of anyone else. Meantime, a German firm has ordered a flying boat to be equipped with ten motors capable of 1,100 horsepower each, and capable of carrying 170 passengers. Regular service across the Atlantic is contemplated. Paul Redfern, who hopes to fly from Brunswick, Ga., to Diode Janerio, plans to start ext week. NATIONAL POLITICS A civilian probably will be appointed governor-general .of the Philippines to succeed General Leonard Wood, who died early Sunday in a Boston hospital. General Wood was buried Tuesday at Arlington beside the famous Rough Riders with whom he fought in Cuba. For 67 years, he served his country as doctor, soldier and administrator. Secretary of the Interior Work has conferred with President Coulidge and it is expected that Philippine authority will be transferied from the War Department to un Interior Department shortly. Among those considered for the Island post are Carmi Thompson of Ohio, Henry L. Stlmson of New York, and former Senators Rice W. Means, Lenroot and Wadsworth Secretary of the Navy Denby was at Rapid City with Wilbur. Although no great change in the naval program is contemplated as result of the Geneva parley failure, political correspondents predict that the navy will cost the people considerably more than it would have otherwise. Coolidge and Wilbur have decided that the air fbree needs strengthening, too. If Mr. Coolidge keeps out of the next campaign, Secretary of Commerce Hoover appears, at this stage, to be the strongest man in the Republican ranks. He is understood to have the backing of W. H. Hayes, former chairman of the Rep iblicar. national committee; C. Bascom Slemp, former secretary to Coolidge and rounder-up of southern votes; and Everett Sanders, who succeeded Slemp as secretary at the White House. Tammany Hall is praying that Mr. Coolidge will be "drafted” as the Republican nominee, because A1 Smith's chances are considered best if Mr. Coolidge is the foe. And many republicans who have visited the President out west believe he will consent to drafting. Mr. Coolidge has made but one noteworthy movie scene this week. That was when he went to Keystone, S. D„ to speak at ceremonies

marking the beginning of work on a gigantic monument '.o Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt, by Gutzon Borglum. WITH OUR BUSY DRYS Canada has adopted the slogan: “See America thirst, on the way to Canada!” It may be noted, however, that a half million dollar liquor cargo reached New York Friday. To be sure, the coast guard caught it. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be mentioned here. In Florida, two officers on a patrol boat were killed by captured rum smugglers. Necessity of using “kid glove” tactics to prevent public criticism is blamed by coast guard officials. Dry Czar Lowman has looked the situation over and decided that there in enough medicinal liquor in government chests to last several years without more distilling being permitted. New York bootlegging has been made hazardous by the Sacco-Van-zetti case. Officers have been searching packages carried on subways for bombs,. They have found more personal than architectural explosives. INTERESTING PEOPLE King Ben of the House of David colony took the stand Friday. He admitted that he married Queen Mary without having obtained a divorce from his first wife. He denied immorality charges of women members of the cult. Eamon De Valera and the Fianna Fail deputies took the oath of allegiance to the British crown, and gained entrance to the Irish Dail. The Prince of Wales and his brother, Prince Albert, are emulating Coolidge now by playing cowboy in Alberta. Here’s another opportunity, but beware of horse jokes if you don’t want to choke on a ccb! Mayor Jimmy Walkei has sailed for Europe. Someone called the Prince of Wales a "salesman” for the British Empire, so New Yorkers borrow the expression, without shame, and say that Jimmy is out drumming for their city. John D. Rockefeller made his annual pilgrimage to his boyhood home near Auburn, N. Y., and distributed a few dimes. Senator James E. Watson was reported slightly ill at his summer cottage, Linda Loma, on Lake Michigan. Doctors have advised a rest. Marshall B. Lloyd, who was known as a "baby carriage king,” died Thursday. His career as an inventor was exceptional., He received $3,000,000 for a fiber furniture weaving machine, and a large sura from other patents. James Oliver Curwood, novelist, is seriously ill at his home, Owosso, Mich. BUSINESS AFFAIRS Governor Donahey of Ohio has called off his trt-State conference of miners and operators because the latter have refused to attend. John L. Lewis, of the United Mine Workers, had expressed willingness to discuss wages at such a parley in the hope of ending the strike. Announcement of a huge melon for stockholders of General Motors in the form of a "two for one share split” of stock, has been followed by talk of an extra cash dividend of $2.50 a share before the end of the year. A New York stock exchange seat sold this week for $222,000. The previous high mark was $220,000, and the last previous sale was at $218,000. Heavy rains in Kansas, Oklahoma and Arkansas have boosted corn crop hopes, but floods have caused great losses in some localities. Rumors that Gimbel Brothers would buy the May Company department stores are denied by officials of the latter firm. Resources of national banks of the United States, Alaska and Hawaii passed the $26,000,000,000 mar* on June 30, according to Comptroller of Currency Mclntosh. Coal dealers report prices scarcely effected as yet by the mine strike, but predict greater rises than usual during the fall.

POPULAR SCIENCE • The Soviet will establish 100 seismological stations throughout Russia and gather data by which it is hoped means of predicting earthquakes will be discovered. A 11,385,000,000 candle power searchlight, capable of producing the effect of sunburn at a'distance of two miles, will be turned, on at Charlottesville, Va., next Tuesday. Thomas A. Edison celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of the invention of the phonograph Friday with a party of friends. Anew Diesel engine designed by Canadian railway engineers made the 335-mile run from Montreal to Toronto In two hours less than the crack trains. A Colorado surgeon has attempted an operation to remove “criminal tendencies” by scraping the brain. The patient lived. Germany reports increased numbers of applications for patents since the trans-Atlantic flights. In this country, we have quit chasing reds to shout about flying—and it is astounding how much dust airplanes can stir up, and how much hot air there la about them.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BUILD LARGEST PLANE MOTOR FORJLS. HERE 24-Cylinder Engine Will Pull 1,400 Horsepower; Cost $68,000. The Allison Engineering Cos., Speedway City, has under construction anew 24-cylinder airplane motor. Two years ago the United States Government asked the company to design and build the engine. Cost of construction will be approximately $68,000.

It is an air-cooled affair, pulling 1,400 horsepower, the largest pulling strength of any motor built in this country. Almost two years were required to design it. According to N. H. Gilman, general manager and chief engineer of the company, the Government did not specify to what use the motor will be put. As an indication of the general present interest in aviation, the Allison plant is working at capacity, giving Indianapolis a full-fledged airplane motor industry. Much of the work being done at the plant consists of rebuilding motors built during the war and bringing them up to modern qualifications for the Government. Besides motors, the Allison firm manufactures super-chargers and reduction gears. The super-charger is a device used on a plane to obtain as much power from light air, at high altitudes, as the plane usually gets from low air at normal heights. WEATHER HALTS GERMANS’ HOP Fliers to Bring Sacco Appeal From Berlin. By United Prut BERLIN, Aug. 13.—The Junkers trans-Atlantic planes, Bremen and Europa, will be unable to start their flight to New York unless the weather suddenly changes for the better, in which event the start would be made about sunset tonight, Junkers officials announced. Weather reports showed poor weather conditions over the Atlantic. The fliers will take an appeal from the Rote Hilfe, an international organization for ’he relief of political prisoners, in behalf of Sacco and Vanzetti. Junkers officials announced the route had been changed so that the planes would fly along the channel to the ocean instead of over England. This will give the aviators the benefit of the Croydon beacon and the lighthouses along the channel. BANKERS PLAN MEET Federal Reserve Board Head to Speak Here. D. R. Crissinger of Washington, governor of the Federal Reserve Board, will be one of the principal speakers at the annual convention of the Indiana Bankers Association here. Sept. 22 and 23.

Coast Guard Celebrates 137 Years of Service

Navy Itself Can’t Boast as Great Age; Proud of Brave Deeds. BY RUTH FINNEY WASHINGTON. Aug. 12.—One hundred and thirty-seven years old and still going strong, the scrappy old sea dogl The United States Coast Guard celebrated its birthday this week. The Navy itself can’t boast so many years of service. Proud of its record, too, is the Coast Guard, fighting pirates and Indians, and the British navy and German submarines, and saving thousands of lives and millions of dollars’ worth of property. There was the cutter Eagle, attacked by a British vessel during the War of 1812. Fight Against Odds The British vessel was too big for the little Eagle, and ran it ashore on Long Island. The Eagle’s crew dragged her guns up onto a high bluff and started firing. They fought the British vessel all day. When they had no more shot they dug out the enemy's cannon balls which lodged against the hill and fired them back, tearing up the Eagle’s log book to use as wads. Pirates of the early nineteenth century found what It is like to rim afoul the Coast Guard. Jean La Farge, in his vessel Bravo, ordered an attack on two small cutters one day in 1819 off the coast of Florida. The cutters’ crews boarded the enemy’s ship and carried his decks in a hand-to-hand struggle. The Coast Guard finally drove the pirates from the gulf coast. The story of the Coast Guard cutter Seneca is an epic of the World War. Seneca Story Is Epic The Seneca was acting as ocean escort to a convey of vessels when one of them, the British collier Wellington, was torpedoed. Lieutenant F. W. Brown, the Seneca’s navigating officer, took a volunteer crew of nineteen men to try to work the Wellington into port. Later the master, first and second officers and eleven of the crew of

Asthma Nearly Made Him Change Climate Got Well at home, two years ago, and trouble never returned Sufferers who are thinking of changing climate for asthma or bronchial troubles will be interested in the experience of Earl L. Harvey, 231 N. Tacoma Ave., In'dlanapolis. He says: “I had asthma for about nine months, and was in very bad condition. I had spent $98.00 for treatments without any relief. My trouble really started with flu back in 1918. I couldn't sleep at night, would choke up and have to be propped up in bed. I had shortness of breath, a tight cough and pains in my stomach. I sold my household goods, intending to go to Colorado for relief, but a friend recommended Nacor and I began taking It in August, 1924. I had r.ot been able to work all spring and summer. On the 13th of September, 1924, I started to work sgain and have since been able to work hard every day without any ill effects. I have only taken 2% bottles of Nacor and am entirely well; no symptoms of asthma, pains or cough and my breathing is good again. I haven’t taken any medicine since November, 1924, and am enjoying the best of health.” Hundreds of people who suffered for years from asthma, bronchitis and severe chronic coughs, have told how their trouble left and never returned. Their letters and a booklet of vital and Interesting information about these serious diseases will be sent free by Nacor Medicine Cos., 413 State Life Bldg., Indianapolis Ind.

the Wellington, rejoined her. Aboard the torpedoed boat, men who had never fired furnaces before passed coal and fired, and then took a gun watch as they came off duty. Other men kept the pumps working. Four hours later the'men took to hastily-built life rafts. Lieutenant Brown and eight of his men were rescued from the water by a United States naval vessel that rushed to their aid. Rescues 14,730 Persons In six years just past, the lifesaving branch of the coast guard rescued 14,730 persons in peril, and assisted vessels bearing another 84,691 persons. The first Congress created the revenue cutter service, whose nami was changed to coast guard in 1915 when It combined with the life saving service. The present commandant of the coast guard. Rear Admiral F. Cl. Billard, is the only man who has brought a vessel to port after la mine had exploded under it. He was piloting the U. S. S. Aphrodite through the North Sea Just after the armistice had been signed, when the ship struck a German mine.

M’ADOO RAPS WETS' PRIVATE RIGHTSTHEORY ‘Government May Interfere With Anything Under Proper Channels/ Bu United Press UNIVERSITY, Va., Aug. 13. Former Secretary of Treasury William G. McAdoo today attacked wets who argue that the Government shall not Interfere with “private rights.” McAdoo. told the University of Virginia Institute of Public Affairs there are no private rights with which the community cannot interfere when acting through proper channels. He also attacked corruption in Government and advocated keeping Government out of dishonest hands as the best safeguard against graft. Goals of good government were defined by the speaker as “Conveniently enough described by the time-honored words, life, liberty and property, or more broadly, the pursuit of happiness.” These were characterized as conditions guaranteed only by the existence of Government, and hence subject to modifications which the community sees fit to impose. McAdoo cited zoning laws as examples of the right of the Government to regulate property in the interest of the community. "Constitutional Government of the Democratic variety is the only possible way of harmonizing liberty and law; It is the only half-way ground between anarchy and despotism,” he said. “The individual can enjoy liberty only insofar as he is protected by law from the lawless liberty of others.” The doctrine of “natural rights” of Individuals, which cannot be infringed by the community, he said, was that of “reactionary extremists, and extreme and unthinking radicals.” MOUSE LIVES ON FLIES Station Agnt Claims to Have Seen Strange Hunting ST. JOSEPH, Mo., Aug. 13. There is a fly-eating mouse in the union station here. F. E. Robertson, news stand manager, says he has seen it pouncing on flies on the station floor.
