Inform press.—Baron von Hupnfeld.” In the second message the Baron reported that in addition to the gasoline supply being exhausted, the propeller was broken and a landing gear cracked. In answer to ,this, Schuengel and Fraulein Herta Junkers sent the following wireless to the fliers: “In view of reported damage and on account of lack fuel, Junkers F-13 will be sent to you to continue your voyage to New York. Junkers will leave at daybreak tomorrow, proceeding to Old Orchard Beach, Me.” The F-13, however, is delayed by bad weather.

First to Send Word

Sil United Press NEW YORK. April 14. W. F. Barrett, operator of the small radio station at Point Amour, Labrador, was the first man to tell the world that the German fliers and their Irish comrade were safe, thus ending the hours of suspense over their fate. By relays the message of the fliers’ safety was sent over the lowpower station to St. Johns, Newfoundland, and then rebroadcast to a world that was anxious for news. Here is the message: “Point Aramour, via Fogo, N. F. “United Press, New York. “German plane landed Greenly Island noon, slightly damaged, crew well, no particulars, landline source information.—W. F. Barrett.” The United Press correspondent at St. Johns, Newfoundland, who for hours vigilantly had been seeking trace of the airplane, also received a message from Point Armour and relayed to New York the following: “Plane came down noon today damaged, but crew all well and comfortable quarters. Scene landing five miles from wireless station Point Amour.” KAISER SONGS BANNED All Mention Ordered Eliminated From Prussian Books.

Transplant Legs, Heart of One Frog to Another BY SCIENCE SERVICE ANN ARBOR, Mich., April 13.—Transplanting legs and hearts from one animal to a distantly related species was the feat reported here today before the American Association of Anatomists by Dr. W. M. Copenhaver, of the Unviersity of Rochester. The animals involved were two rather remote relatives of frogs and toads, more nearly akin to salamanders. One was the Mexican axolotl, the other a European creature called the triton. They are rated as rather' distant zoological cousins. At an early stage in their existence the beginnings of legs were removed from the axolotls and plaifted on the tritons in place of their own limbs. They were a little slow in taking hold, but after they did they made up for lost time, becoming larger than the tritons’ own legs which had been left in place on the opposite sides of their bodies. Dr. Copenhaver also grafted axolotl hearts into triton bodies. Here also the transplanted hearts grew bigger than the normal hearts of unoperated tritons of the same size. Moreover, they did not seem to become wholly “naturalized” in their new homes, for their pulse persisted at something like that of the normal rate for the axolotls from which they came.

. THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

PASTOR URGES FAITH IN DIVINE WORKSOF GOD Oregon Minister Cites Aid of Christian Science in Noon Talk. The law of divine provision and Christian Science was the subject of a lecture given by Paul Stark Seeley, of Portland, Ore., at Keith’s theater Fridtty. His talk, which was broadcast over WFBM, was sponsored by Second Church of Christ, Scientist, of this city. “We are all interested in the development of human inventions, the airplane, the radio, the automobile and electrical appliances. Some of these lessen the burden of physical toil. None of them can lessen the burdens of the heart. Their scope is in a limited material realm and they are powerless to minister to man’s spiritually mental needs. % “So it is with, material wealth. With it we may acquire things which afford a temporary sense of satisfaction. Yet no amount of material wealth of itself can bring to us a healthy body and a happy mind. “These can only be found In spiritual understanding, an understanding of God and the relationship of unity which the true individuality of man has with God. Fear and tjie press of economic necessity, the human need of making a living, are some of the obstacles to the turning by men of thought to God and spiritual things. Someone may say: It is all well enough to say that a man should understand God and His laws, but what about the family that must be supported, the bills that must be paid. I have to think of those things first. And the point of view seems plausible. Yet in it there is a fallacy. Christian Science shows that the real individuality of man exists as the effect of a power and intelligence which it defiAes as divine mind. The power and intelligence which gives man being, it reasons, is capable of sustaining and providing for man ar.d is always willing to do so. God Supplies Needs “As we learn to turn thought to God, the one intelligent cause, first, and let our thinking express more of God and His thoughts, w 6 find that our life's work is directed mto constructive channels and our needs intelligently supplied. "Fear of lack and the feverish struggle to provide against it is a state of thought which does not evidence an understanding of God's care for man. Jesus, it is very evident, had no such outlook. He had no bank account or accumulation of material possessions, and yet he was the richest man who ever trod the globe. He_ knew and he proved that mind will'supply the needs of men in ways which mortals never would have thought of. “My ways are higher than your ways,” says Isaiah. “He showed that the arguments of material limitation lack the sanction of the divinely intelligent cause and are overthrown through an understanding of that cause. He proved the superiority of divine intelligence over the false sense that there is not enough work, not enough supply, not enough provision for every one.

Understoood God’s Ability “Because Christ Jesus understood God's ability to care for and supply the needs of His creatures at all times. He was enabled to feed the two great multitudes, one of 4,000 and one of more than 5,000, when no sufficient material supply was apparent. He found His tax money in a fish's mouth. “The trouble with us mortals is that we have allowed erring material thinking to substitute itself for an understanding of our true individuality and Tour individual until with God, and so hide from us the fact of His loving control and constant provision for His own. “Christian Science is restoring to us a realization of man’s spiritual unity with God, supreme intelligence, and enabling us to see that God, divine mind, has provided and will forever provide for us if we but recognize and express Him in our thoughts and lives.”

Commander McDonald examines the newest in radio sets. To get your favorite station you just press a button—no dialing.

Station Owner Sees Great Religious Possibilities in Broadcasting. BY HORTEXSE SAUNDERS NEA Service Writer NEW YORK. April 12.—“ The Billy Sundays of the future will convert from broadcasting stations rather than tent platforms, and the trail to salvation will be carpeted with radio waves instead of sawdust.” So said Commander Eugene F. McDonald, Arctic explorer, archaeologist. yachtsman, radio manufacturer, and owner of station WJAZ in Chicago. Nothing that goes over the air has the general and consistent appeal of the Sunday morning religious services, McDonald has found. Lost Is Regained McDonald and Commander Byrd went on an Arctic trip together in the “Peary” the year before Byrd flew over the pole. In an isolated part of Labrador, they found an old man of 80, who constituted onetenth of the population of Jack Laynes Bay, and they gave him a radio sot. “He had been out of touch with the world for sixty years," McDonald said. “His joy at bring able to get stations in both Europe and United States was almost pitiful to behold. “The music and the th'atircal programs were remote and strange to him. for he broke down and cried when he again heard the hymns of his childhood in a church service. “It often has been reported that clergymen who broadcast regularly are receiving more contributions

| from their radio audiences than from those who actually sit in the pews and listen to the service first hand. Attracts Patrons “Radio is all so new. The church has not made the adjustment to it that more commercial agencies have. The theaters know that by broadcasting parts of their program, I they arouse interest and bring in I patrons. “Those who listened to ! symphonies and operatic programs over the radio are the ones who ; stand in line to get tickets for the actual musical events. “Undoubtedly the churches, too, will realize this more fully. Radio already is indicating that the impulse to worship is not declining, and that a spiritual renaissance is not impossible.” Capt. Kidd of Radio Radio is but one of McDonald’s interests. This summer he is taking an expedition to explore prehistoric ruins recently discovered on Isle Royal, on the Canadian shore of Lake Superior. He came to New York to participate in boat races between Manhattan and Albany, on the Hudson. His own efforts made McDonald wealthy. In his youth he worked as a mechanic for $6 a week. Radio caught his fancy when it was first developed. Because of his bent for testing out the validity of certain radio restrictions, he came to be known as “radio's Captain Kidd.” Yard-Long Ballot Returning TRENTON. N. J..

U. S. HAS FORTY AUTOMOBILES TO MILEJFROADS Space for Operation on Improved Highways Becoming Scarce. WASHINGTON, April 14.—There were forty motor vehicles registered in the United States in 1927 to every mile of improved highway of every type. The comparative figure for 1926 was thirty-four motor vehicles to every mile of improved highway of every type. The comparative figure for 1918 was seventeen motor vehicles to every mile of improved highway, showing in the ten-year period an increase of 130 per cent in the number of motor units to every mile of improved highway. With the maximum load on the improve highways in 1927, each car would have had a space of only forty-four yards in which to operate as compared with fifty-two yards in 1926 and 103 yards in 1918. In making public these figures toi day, the American Automobile Association, acting on behalf of its 958 motor clubs throughout the country, called attention to the serious extent to which the American car builders and the real owners are crowding the road builders of the nation. The A. A. A. figures disclosing the gradual contraction of the available space for car operation on the improved highways of the country is based on the 1927 registration of 23,125,000 motor vehicles and a total of 575.000 miles of improved roads. “The tremendous increase in the ratio of automobiles to the mileage of improved highways,” said Thomas P. Henry, president of the A. A. A., “constitutes a situation on which national attention must be kept constantly focused if we want to keep car saturation at arm’s length and if highway traffic is to move with a reasonable degree of dispatch and safety.” The A. A. A. executive declared that the time has come to bring more of the nation's secondary highways forward for the application of improvement programs to them as a means of increasing floor space and to relieve congestion on main highways. “Asa matter of fact,” said Henry, "the improved highways constituting 575,000 out of a total of more than 3,000,000 miles of road, are carrying the load today and it is largely in relation to the improved surface that we must regard saturation and safety, as well as expeditious and economical highway transport. “Our car producers and car buyers are crowding our road builders; the ratio of car increase from year to year is much higher than the ratio of improved roads, all of which spell increased congestion and the inevitable diminution of the open driving space on our roadways. * “There Is no doubt whatever that at the present the motorists are paying a disproportionate share of the burden. They are willing to pay more money for more miles, but they want to call a halt in the ascendihg ratio of the cost of every mile that the trend of recent years has imposed on them.”
