PROPOSE NEW I PLAN FOR CITY i LANDING HELD Extension of Present Port by Municipal Aid Suggested. Anew plan for a municipal airport has been suggested to Mayor L. Ert Slack, he said today. Under the plan the Indianapolis Airport Corporation or some similar organization would lease 282 acres of land which has been proposed as an addition to Indianapolis airport. The 282 acres would be operated as a municipal airport and the National Guard would continue to operate the Indianapolis airport, with all fliers being entitled to use both fields in landing and taking off. Mayor Has Other Plans The two fields would give an “L” shaped airport, 474 acres in size, with runways a mile long in almost all directions, extending a mile along Holt Rd. to Morris St., and west along Morris St. to the Pennsylvania railroad tracks at the northwest corner. The city would purchase the tract In a few years when its financial condition is better. The city cannot sell bonds to purchase an airport at present. Slack said he is in favor of a municipal airport if the citizenship signifies its desire for such a field. “It would be a park board project,” the mayor said. “The city general cannot enter the airport business: Personally I favor use of a large tract of land, 500 or 600 acres, along White River, with some fifty acres devoted to park purposes and the remainder to a landing field. “The project is not ripe yet. I have talked it over with several people.” Holds Option National Guard officials recently proposed that the city join with the guard in purchasing the 282 acres for a large joint city-National Guard port, Sut Mayor Slack opposed this plan. William .H. Kershner, Indiana adjutant general, said the ' armory board expects to buy the 192 acres in the present airport within the next month. At present the guard holds a lease with option to purchase. Recently James W. Hurt, City Trust Company real estate manager, obtained options on the 282 acres, representing the guard and the Indianapolis airport corporation. Leases have been obtained, it is reported, on all but 120 acres of the 282 addition proposed as a municipal airport.

Allied Friendship Won War, Says Foch on Anniversary

Lauds Spirit of Drive in 1918 Which Brought* Victory. PARIS, France, July .18.—“ Ten years ago today the sky of France veas singularly overcast^"Ten years ago today the allied forces with a united front turned valiantly against the enemy hordes which had been pressing us with such desperate energy, and began the great drive that ultimately brought us to victory.” Marshal Ferdinand Foch, former generalissimo of the allied armies in France, spoke these words deliberately and quietly, but none the less dramatically. And though his face was kindly, almost fatherly, the keen, deep-set eyes were the eyes of an eagle, and of a fighter. Recalls Great Drive He was recalling the Allied French and American offensive on the forty-mile front from Fonteboy to Chateau Thierry, which was begun July 18, 1918, and which pushed all the German troops beyond the Marne, by the 20th. “This anniversary is worthy of profound reflection,” he went on, “because the movement always will be associated with this date. “The Germans had opened a breach and Paris once again was threatened when in this grave hour American forces, fresh and full of fight for freedom, came to aid. “Together we put forth a mighty effort, with the will to win and the capacity for sacrifice. In our struggle, we forged bonds of friendship which must never be broken. It is happy for us to recall these bonds.” Difficult it is to believe that Foch is 76 years old. He stands straight, his movements are quick and decisive. There is vigor to his body, and keenness to his mind. Union Brings Victory “In those days we had one supreme object—victory,” he continued. “To fortify us we had a splendid spirit of comradeship which never ceased to give increasing strength to the allied armies. “Friendships between the allied peoples before the period of bloodshed became, during hostilities, the most living and enduring of realities. It was this union, at the price of the greatest effort and sacrifice, and by pooling the resources of our various countries that enabled us to command the means and to summon the strength to reach the ultimate goal.” FLIER SAVES ALPINISTS TRAPPED ON MOUNTAIN ( Warns Climbers With ‘Don’t Move’ Sign Painted on Wings. Btl United Press PARIS, July 18.—The story of how two Alpine climbers on Mt. Blanc —stranded when their guide rope broke —were saved through the quick thinking of M.

Royal Ratting Bn United Press TURIN, July 18.—The old sport of “ratting” or killing rats with terriers in rat-pits, has received royal sanction on its introduction into Italy.

The second part consisted of a contest to show the dogs’ ability in getting the rodents out of specially prepared burrows.

DOCTOR CLAIMS NEW CLEW TO CANCERORIGIN Disease Is Not Caused by Living Germ,. View of N. Y. Physician. Bn United Press LONDON, July 18.—A theory that cancer arises inside the body and is, not caused by a living virus or germ, was outlined to the cancer conference today by Dr. James B. Murphy of New York, in charge of the diaphysics division of the Rockefeller institute. Dr. Murphy’s theory, regarded as the most important recent, pronouncement, is in direct conflict with that of W. E. Gye and J. E. Barnard, British scientists, who announced three years ago their discovery of a living cancer virus. The Gye-Barnard discovery was considered of transcendental importance. It came after perfection of a microscope far finer than any previously conceived. Studied Sixteen Years Dr. Murphy said that formation of his theory was the culmination of sixteen years’ research. Cancer, he suggested, w j as due to j a ferment produced within the body, i He said he formed his theory finally after he and Dr. Peyton Roos, in 1922, brought scientists’ 'attention to their success in transmitting a series of tumors in chickens by extracts that had been filtered with minute care, so that any living virus might be eliminated. Numerous efforts to transplant a certain type of chicken tumor to other species had failed. Dr. Murphy said, but he had succeeded in producing a protein fraction by means of which he was able to create tumors in fowls with great regularity. I "These facts,” he argued, “indicate that it is hardly conceivable that the active fraction thus obtained—by a substance purified by repeated precipitations—could carry with it through all these manipulations any living organism or virus." Old Question Revived Sir Thomas Horder, physician-in-ordinary to the Prince of Wales, revived an old controversy—the right of a physician to prolong or not to prolong life when a patient is suffering from an incurable, fatal disease. Sir Thomas worded his speech most carefully. He indicated his belief, however, as have many physicians, that in certain cases a merciful death is preferable to prolongation of suffering. "The question of prolonging life in the presence of tancer, which is neither operatable nor capable of resorption by radiation,” he said, “is merely a part of the question of prolonging life in Incurable diseases generally.” BAGS, $550 CLOTHING STOLEN FROM AUTO Vandal Cuts Top, Scrapes Paint Off Car.

Four Factor Make for Perfect Crawl Stroke

y

Bernice Zitenfield photographed in the crawl stroke. On the backward stroke of her left arm, her head is turned to the right.

Here is the fifth of a series of articles by the famous Zitenfield twins, Junior long distance swimming champions. They are explaining the easiest methods of learning how to swim. BY THE ZITENFIELD TWINS For NEA Service We have said that your count for the crawl is three-six. This means j that while putting your left arm; forward down, back and your right! arm back, up, forward, you kick, six times. This one complete revolution of the arms to six kicks gives about the most perfectly co-ordmated rhythm for the average person. There is one place in this rhythm when your arms are exactly opposite each other. It is when your forward a.m goes down and your backward arm comes up. During this part of the stroke, your head still is turned slightly from the side where you have just been breathing. One Arm Rests While both of your arms look in about the same position when pictured, there is a great difference in the feel of them to the swimmer. One is relaxed, being brought up to strike out for the next stroke. Its fingers are easy, even loosely apart. It is the moment of rest for that arm. The other one is poised for action. Fingers are close together, prepared to scoop the water and force the body forward. The arm is gathering force for pushing. It should not be strained, but nevertheless ready for that drive that will send the body toward its goal. During this part of the stroke, one should watch the line of the body in the water. Arch your back. In fact, the easy and good swimmer keeps lfis back arched all the time. This brings the water up to about the bridge of your nose if you hold your head naturally. Keep your eye out of the water, but get used to having the rest of your face in until you turn to breathe again. Keep Stroke Slow You may have a hard time keeping your stroke slow 7 because of your

But it is far better to learn carefully and correctly and try to go very, very slowly until you can sense by the windmill revolutions of your arms and the paddling motion of your feet that your extremities are in accord Keep your kick steady. Never let it ,ag. Speed is an unimportant thing until your stroke is perfect. And for this perfection you have four things to consider; stroke of your arms, position of your body, kick of your feet and breathing. Chi!* Dies of Burns 7? if Time* s ,i -rial RICHMOND. Ind..

HOOVER WILL STRESS WORLD PEACEAFFAIRS Plans to Follow Program Laid Down by Coolidge in Foreign Policies. By United Press OMAHA, Neb., July 18.—Foreign affairs will loom large in Herbert Hoover's presidential campaign. Fresh from two days’ political confab with President Coolidge, who gave the Republican nominee some political pointers out of his twenty successful candidacies for public office, Hoover believes that Coolidge’s recent handling of international problems is one of the chief Republican assets. A1 Smith's comparative inexperience with regard to international problems may also incline Hoover to stress these questions. Republican strategy also is designed to win to Hoover’s standard the women of America, who already have indicated they have a soft spot in their hearts for the man who fed the babies of Belgium. In any event, Coolidge will devote the last eight months of his Administration to gaining a reputation as a world peacemaker. He is elated by Secretary Kellogg’s attempt to have European nations adopt his multi-lateral treaty. Britain’s expected reply will be big news on Hoover's train and at Coolidge’s lodge.

Indianapolis Man Rejoices Since Taking Konjola Says Rheumatism and Kidney Trouble Had Weakened His Whole System. !

It contains the juices of 22 roots and herbs and works ih Nature's own way, invigorating and strength- | ening the inner organs until the I sufferer’s health is fully restored in every way. , Thousands of local people have ! already called to see the Konjola Man at Hook’s Drug Store, Illinois and Washington Streets, Indianapolis, and hear his personal explanation of this celebrated compound, and vast crowds are still calling every day to find out for themselves what this new medicine* will do. At the same time letters of praise and gratitude are coming from men and women all over this section telling how this Konjola has helped them. One of the latest received by the Konjola Man is from Mr. G. T. Wright, 342 Parkway Street, Indianapolis. “I have improved so much since taking Konjola that I feel I can help others by telling what this medicine did for me." said Mr. Wright. "It Is the best medicine that ever entered my home and I rejoice to think that after several years of suffering I found a medicine to give me lasting relief. "A stubborn case of kidney trouble caused my whole system to become very much rundown. I was bothered with frequent night rising and this destroyed my rest every night. Doctors told me I had acid in my kidneys, which resulted in terrible burning sensations in the bladder. As this trouble continued, rheumatism gradually set in and added greatly to my suffering. At times my limbs would get cold and it felt as though a thousand needles were piercing my flesh. The pains kept me in almost constant misery and I could never find anything to help me. In time my stomach, too, became disordered and nearly everything I ate would sour and ferment, filling my system with gas until I was so bloated up I could hardly breathe. “I will frankly admit that I didn't think Konjola would help me at the time I started taking this medicine, but in a few days’ time I noticed such wonderful relief in my stom- * ach that I could realize it was true. As I continued to tal e this medicine faithfully all the other symptoms disappeared and now my health is back to normal in every way. Konjola worked remarkably fast and in my case, considering my advanced age. My rheumatism is gone entirely and every trace of kidney trouble has left me. I have new strength and energy and wake up every morning with the feeling that I am glad I am alive.” The Konjola Man is at Hook's Drug Store, Illinois and Washington Streets, Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is sold in every Hook drug store in this section and by all the leading druggists throughout this vicinity,—Ad,-
