Sees Friendship Link B’/'Vn itcd Press LONDON, June s.—The flight of the airplane Friendship from the United States to England—which j if successful will terminate in the j harbor of Southampton—will serve to link a continued friendship be- ; tween America and England, Mrs.. Frederick Guest, backer of the | flight, said today. “We hope the flight will serve as a link of continued friendship between America and England as only such permanently will outlaw war and make for a federated world, closer understanding and mutual appreciation,’’ she said. “I originally planned for the Friendship to land on the Thames opposite the houses of Parliament, a common heritage of both England and America, but the air ministry said it woul dbe safer to land at Southampton. I concurred in this." I She expressed her indebtedness to the active cooperation of Commander Richard E. Byrd, former owner of the Fokker plane. She said that $40,000 probably was an extremely conservative estimate of the cost of the venture, but that the cost was no consideration. Notables to Attend Parley Men whose names stand high in aviation achievement are included among the 500 to 1,000 aeronautical engineers who will attend the 1928 aeronautical convention of the American * Society of Mechanical Engineers in- connection with the Detroit Air-Olympics June 28 to 30.

Campaign Log

Bn United Press Hoover forces won nine additional delegates in the deciding of contest over seats at the Republican national convention. Other contests will be decided today. James W. Good, campaign manager for Herbert Hoover, said the commerce secretary would go into the Republican national convention with 500 delegates. Clarence Buck, manager of the Frank O. Lowden campaign, said the former Illinois Governor would have 300 delegates from the outset of the Republican national convention and that disagreement over farm relief would enhance the Lowden candidacy. Governor Adam McMullen of Nebraska, leader of the Mid-West group that urges inclusion of a farm relief plank in the Republican platform, withdrew from the proposed march of farmers on Kansas City, calling such a march “a clowning circus parade.” He said he thought farmers merely should go to Kansas City and make known their demands for a farm relief plank. C. C. Talbott and F. L. Graham announced between 200 and 300 motor car loads of farmers from North Dakota, under leadership of Governor Sorlie, would start Saturday for Kansas City to demand that the Republican party include an adequate farm relief plank in its platform.
