CONTINUE HUNT FOR AVIATORS, LOSU DAYS Chesapeake Bay Waters Are Dragged in Search for Trio. By United Press WASHINGTON, March 2.—For the fifth successive day Army and Navy aircraft at several points took off today in search for Commander T. G. Ellyson, Lieutenant Commander Hugo Schmidt and Lieut. Roger Ransehousen, lost early Monday on a flight from Hampton Roads, Va., to Annapolis, Md. Chesapeake Bay waters around Horn Harbor, Va., were dragged late yesterday and today, because three witnesses said they heard the trio’s plane, with engine missing, pass there at 2:30 a. m. Monday, and feared the airmen had drowned. United States Naval Academy craft searched off the mouth of the Magothy River, near Annapolis, after an oil slick 25 feet across, such as might arise from a submerged gasoline tank, had been reported there. They found no trace of the missing men or their plane. The United States was one of the last great nations to adopt the national budget system.

TOOK DOCTOR’S ADVICE -COLD GONE NEXT DAY

Many Here Find Way to End Colds Overnight at Home by Hospital Tested Method By taking the advice of her doctor and using a method that has relieved even the most extreme hospital cases, Miss Agnes L. White, like numbers of Indianapolis people, found the quickest way to get rid of a stuffy cold. Miss White, for example, had neglected her cold several days in the hope that it would clear up of its own accord. Instead, it started settling in her nose passages and chest. She began to feel feverish, and finally called the clinic for advice, when her mother feared pneumonia. Relief began almost immediately when doctors gave her double doses of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral —a concentrated mixture of wild cherry, terpin-hydrate and other ingredients used in treating even the most extreme hospital cases. _ She felt its comforting warmth instantly—from her nose passages deep down into her chest. In a few hours the redness of her eyes was gone; her nose passages began to clear up and in another day or so, doctors report, the cold was completely gone.

DOLLY SISTERS TO QUIT STAGE FORHOME LIFE Rosie Confesses Secret Marriage to Son of Tobacco King. BY RALPH lIEINZEN XTnited Press Staff Correspondent PARIS, March 2.—The Dolly sisters who have been dacing in Paris music halls for ever so long, made three announcements today which will be considered important by some part of the population. 1. Roszika Dolly confessed she has been married since last March 31 to Mortimer Davis, son of the Canadian tobacco magnate, Sir Mortimer Davis. 2. The Dolly sisters have decided to quit the stage forever, w r hich means tearing up this year’s $40,000 contract. 3. While Roszika was convalescing at Cannes she won $200,000 at the gaming tables, part of which is being used in setting up house. Jenny, however, won and lost $750,000 in six weeks, later dropping SBO,OOO in a vain effort recoup the winnings. Even Jennie Didn’t Know Rosie—when the Dolly Sisters played the American boards she was Roszika, fresh from Hungary—said the decision to quit the stage came after she decided to raise a family. “It took a long time to decide to quit,” Rosie said. “Music often sets my legs to dancing, despite my determination to be honestly and truly domestic.” She told of her mariage to Davis, the secret of which, she said, she had kept for eleven months even from her sister. The wedding took place at Brewster, Conn. The Dolly Sisters were to have starred, as usual, in the next revue of the Casino de Paris. Boulevardiers have come to think that no Paris season is complex without the Dolly Sisters’ dancing. "We are finished with the theater.” said Rosie, quite happy at having made a decision. “I love the stage which I have followed since I was 13 years old. But I won’t interfere with my domestic duties. Wants Children “I hope to be a good wife and Icve my children,” she continued. “I will adopt a baby to complete our domestic bliss if we don’t have one soon. "Jenny,” she went on, “is angry with me, not because we are deserting the stage, but because I kept my marriage secret, even from her. “We wanted to quit the stage in a blaze of glory, put on a dancing act which would make Paris gasp. But I guess we felt that we reached the height of our career last season at the Casino De Paris. “If I can t resist the music and if my feet won’t behave,” she added, ruefully, “I may participate in amateur programs—as a strict amateur.” Rosie hinted that Jenny may marry soon. “1 don’t believe anyone has pro-

FLOOD CONTROL BILL OPPOSED BY SENATORS Jones’ Measure Provisions Protested by Caraway and Robinson. By United Press WASHINGTON, March 2.—Senators Caraway and Robinson of Arkansas, acting for Mississippi Valley tributary States, lodged a protest against the Jones flood control bill as soon as it was reported to the Senate today. Caraway expressed hope that the bill would be amended to extend flood control works to tributaries of the Mississippi River, “because there is the seat of the greatest trouble.” Robinson introduced an amendment to the Jones bill, which would direct the Secretary of War to investigate and prepare a complete project for flood control on tributaries. Robinson said the $5,000,000 fund for tributary construction work, provided in the bill, is insufficient to care for more than the immediate situation. The objections were made as soon as Chairman Jones reported the bill from the commerce committee and announced he would press for its consideration soon. Caraway pointed out that committee hearings had been held for sixty-three days and that the 3,500,000 words of testimony taken from 300 people covered 5,000 printed pages. "But this bill reported by the Senate takes no consideration of the damage done in Arkansas, where the greatest damage was caused by overflow of navigable tributaries,” he said. “The Army engineers are planning works below Pine Bluff, Ark., but none above, and that is where 12,000 persons were driven from their homes and seventy lost their lives.” JUDGE SUBSTITUTES John Royse Hears Divorce Cases for Chamberlin.

SOVIET JUSTICE) IS SWIFT FOR i PUBLIC FRAUD C. of C. Speaker Stresses Honesty of Russian High Officials. “When a public official is proved dishonest his punishment is swift 1 and sure.” This statement was made not of Indiana, not of the United States, but of Soviet Russia by Charle* Hadden Smith in addressing the open forum meeting of the Cham-: ber of Commerce at noon today. Smith, a native of Rushville, Ind., is vice president of the AmericanRussian Chamber of Commerce and speaks in the interest of increased trade between the Soviets and the United States. Government Is Stable “The present Russian government is stable, because it is flexible,” Smith said. “It is not perfect and makes no claim to perfection. Through its system of r;ceiving reports regarding the desires and needs of the people from its many, thousands of observers, it knows the composite pulse of the masses and prescribes medicines accordingly. "Both stability and flexibility are assured by the character of the government’c higher officials, who are honest and true to their trust, which is the emancipation of theRussian people from ignorance and virtual serfdom. Trade on Increase “No thinking Rusian within his country today, regardless of political belief, impugns their honesty and endeavor to unlift the masses. He may decry their methods, their theories, but not their integrity; he may and does growl about taxes, a rather universal disease; he mav consider that government funds are improperly expended, but lays it to inexperience, not dishonesty.” In 1927 the trade turnover between Russia and the United States was in round numbers $100,000,000, as compared with $48,000,000 in 1913, the year preceding the World War, Smith cited. Last year the United States sold Russia $75,000,000 worth of goods and purchased from hes $25,000,000. In trade turnover. Germany stood first. England second and the United States third.
