'NEW SPIRIT IS SEEN IN MEET OF GOVERNORS Farm and Industrial Area Split Healed, Says Brewster. '' LANSING? Mich., Aug. 19.—The outstanding development of the recent conference of Governors at Mackinac Island, Mich., was the “sympathy with which the agricultural districts and the industrial sections looked upon each others’ problems,” in the opinion of Governor Ralph 5. Brewster, conference president, of Maine. Agricultural relief, and Federal aid for an American merchant marine, were two of the major topics under discussion at the conference. Western Governors came out strong for the McNary-Haugen bill, while eastern Governors, notably Brewster, advocated a merchant marine. Historically the West, especially the interior sections which now feel the pinch of the agricultural situation, have opposed the East’s plea for a merchant marine. By the same token, the chief opposition to the farm relief plan has come from the industrial centers of the country. New Spirit Seen Self-interest was the ‘ rock upon which the opposing sections split, but in the levelling atmospehre of the annual conference of Governors there developed anew spirit, according to Governor Brewster, in which was featured the apparent belief that self-interest perhaps included consideration of demands. , . The conference president referred v to a round-table discussion led by Governor Theodore Christianson of Minnesota, in which Christianson went so far as to suggest that “perhaps these two aims, formerly fought by rival factions, may now present the basis for some sort of trade.” Highly Significant Brewster regarded that statement of a farm-relief, McNary-Haugen advocate as “highly significant,” especially since it followed Christianson’s specific reference to the demand of industrial centers for a jiatlonally supported merchant marine. The Minnesota Governor admitted that agricultural districts “now probably see your point of view better than ever before.” Other Governors at the conference admitted 'that the development was "highly significant,” Governor John S. Fisher of Pennsylvania, a “Coolidge” Republican, told the United Press “if the two forces are smart enough to bring their projects up in Congress at about the same time, they may both get what they want.”

He is only a few feet above the heads of the people waving farewell from the roof of a hangar. Jensen flew about forty feet above the water during the whole journey. His earth inductor compass wouldn’t work when he flew higher than that, so he took a chance on sudden nose dives, squalls and other dangers and flew “close to the water.”

My car does ninety miles an hour, but that’s not fast enough these days. When I was a kid I rode in a buggy. That wasn’t fast enough, so I got a bicycle. That wasn’t fast enough, either, so I got an automobile,” Shoemaker said. Mrs. Shoemaker also is a flying enthusiast and the two are planning several air tours as soon as Shoemaker gets his pilot’s license.
