FLIERS PHYSICALLY FIT AFTER TWO WEEKS IN ARCTIC

TELL OF LONG TRIP OVER ICE; FISELJAILEO .Food Following Landing Was Limited to Small Portions of Pemmican. ' PLANE IS UNDAMAGED Told to Use Own Judgment in Matter of Salvaging Machine. 'By l iiilat Press JULIANEHAAB. Greenland. Sepc. 4.—Physically fit. although they spent two weeks wandering through .little known parts of Greenland , while they sought Mt. Evans. Bert Tflassell and Parker D. Cramer today made plans to proceed to the Greenland coast. The pilots of the airplane Greater Rockford, which was forced down Aug. 19 on the Sukkertoppen ice arm, expect to proceed to Holstensfoorg shortly. Hassell and Cramer arrived at Mt. Evans—the destination of their flight from Cochrane, Ont.—late Sunday night. They were fatigued, cold and in need of food. Ever since their plane landed Aug. 19, they had been beating a ■weary way through the unknown Greenland passes, seeking to find Mt. Evans. Their food had been limited to small -portions of pemmican. But neither was hurt when the forced landing was made and their plane, a trim Stinson-Detroiter, was undamaged when it was forced to land. They had attempted to fly to a special landing field that had been provided at Mt. Evans, where the University of Michigan now -has an 'expedition, but in some manner lost their way. When their fuel supply was exhausted they had to start afoot towards the university expedition—the only group on Greenland that they knew. When they reached the expedition Sunday night, according to advices relayed to Julianehaab, they were given food and within a short time rallied sufficiently to tell of the hazardous two weeks they had spent wandering about Greenland. However, they immediately made plans to leave for Holstensborg by motorboat, where it is possible they will await a ship to carry them back to the United States.

Plane Condition Good By United Press ™rd's two fliers, Bert Hassell and Parker Cramer, have been instructed to use their own judgment in the matter of salvaging their plane, the Greater Rockford, stranded on ,the ice of Greenland. The fliers radioded the backers from the headquarters of the University of Michigan expedition at Mt. Evans, advising that they had left the plane on the ice. They asked whether they should attempt to salvage it. The radio message said that the filane was in good condition when he two fliers left it and went to the expedition’s headquarters, but they feared it might be damaged by high iwids or a breaking up of ice. * Hassell and Cramer had attemptfed a flight from Rockford to Mt. Evans and were lost for several Ways. News of their safety was flashed to Rockford Sunday, turning the city into a bedlam of joyous '^excitement. No Word for Days When no word of the fliers had * "been received here for days. Rocklord had ail but given up hope. Only the close relatives of the two retained a degree of hope for their safety and they too were beginning to fear that the men might never be heard from. The faint hopes were bolstered at times by rumors of radio signals from the monoplane and a report from Greenland that the Greater Rockford had been sighted. Then nothing further was heard for several days. Once the town was thrown into a near frenzy by a. rumor which started when a locomotive whistle t got caught. The whistle blew for minutes. Other whistles •jbined in the belief the fliers ahd been found. This report was quieted, leaving even greater despondency over the fate of the two. Finally, late Sunday night, the definite word was flashed that all was well. Rockford outdid even its celebration at the time the armistice was signed. Every conceivable noisemaking device in the city was brought into play to aid in telling the world that Rockford was glad.

Cutter Is Offered Hassell’s wife was told by the United Press of an offer by Almiral F. C. Billard, commander of the United States coast guard, to order the cutter Marion, in the North Atlantic, to bring the men to the rrtitcd States She expressed appreciation of the offer, but added that she did not want to accept it and “find out that Bert had other plans.'' “If he wants to contine his flight, I shall cheer him on,” she said. Rockford, however, wants a chance to tell the two men how glad it is they are safe and the town is concentrating on plans for a homecoming.

Visions Rocket Plane to Make Berlin-New York Flight in Hour

Here are three drawings of the proposed rocket airplane of Max Valier, who appears at the upper left. On the right is a graphic sketch of a single rocket plane as it would appear in flight. On the left, a double rocket plane. The sketch below shows the construction of a large rocket plane with parachutes under the nose, steering room and cabin—and rocket tubes in the tail.

4,500-Mile Speed Would Be Attained in Thin Air of Sky Ceiling. By SEA. Service Like a fiery comet sailing through the sky, the rocket airplane proposed by Max Valier, Austrian aeronautical inventor, would link Berlin to New York within the remarkable time of one hour. The strange machine out-rivals the wildest dreams of Jules Verne. Valier’s proposal is an outgrowth of recent tests conducted outside Berlin with the rocket-motored automobile built by Fritz von Opel This machine attained a speed o' 230 miles an hour, but on a subsequent test it was destroyed by an explosion. Such a car may go even faster if a body can be designed to keep to the ground. 4,500 Miles An Hour Since Valier’s rocket airplane, however, would have the entire upper regions to itself, he has designed is so that it will attain a speed up to 4,500 miles an hour at an altitude of more than thirty-fiva miles. High up in this rarefied atmosphere, there would be practically no wind resistance to retard the rocketing plane. Valier’s proposed airplane looks like a huge fireworks rocket from the back of which would belch the explosions of powerful gases that would propel the ship through the air. Charges of explosive would be fed continuously into two or four magazines, shooting the ship into high air and over the ocean at a speed reaching 4,500 miles an hour Oxygen In Tanks Within, in what is practically an air-tight cabin, would be the passengers, feeling no ill effect from the speed or the almost instantaneous propulsion into the extremely rare atmosphere thirty-five miles above the earth An oxygen-supplied ventilating system would accommodate their normal breathing for the hour or so the plane would be in the air. The height the rocket airplane is supposed to attain would be more than four times that ever reached by man. Man’s altitude record so far is that of the late Captain Haw thorne C. Gray, who died on his descent in a balloon after he had reached the height of 42,470 feet—more than eight miles. HUNGRY: SURRENDERS DANNEMORA, N. Y„ Sept. 4.

QUAKER CITY IS HELD IN GRIP OF LIQUOR WAR BY 3 GANGS

Shootings Start Probes; Gigantic Crime Ring Bared. Recent grand jury Investigations In Philadelphia have brought out stories of an amazing underworld situation which has as its background a bcotlegglng syndicate that in one year’s time has deposited $10,000,000 in Philadelphia banks. The mushroom growth of this gang operation in Philadelphia will be told by the United Press in a series of articles, the first One of which follows: BY HARR'Y FERGUSON United Press Staff Correspondent PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept, 4. A scant half mile from where William Penn’s statue stands as a constant reminder to Philadelphians that this is the City of Brotherly Love, there has sprung up the machine gun belt of the East. Most of Philadelphia’s 500,000 families were unaware of the undercurrent of strife that has been seething for years until last Aug. 9. It was on that day that police came upon the body of Hughie McLoon, a twisted, handsome little hunchback, who was sprawled on the sidewalk in front of his Cuthbert St. cabaret, with a bullet through his throat The murder of McLoon was the spark that started the series of shootings, investigations and charges and counter-charges that has been under way since. The shooting brought to the attention of Philadelphians the fact that there are three gangs operating here. They are the Duffys, the O’Learys and the American Blackies. Only the first two are important, for the American Blackies made up chiefly of young, inexperienced gangsters, have hovered on the edge of the liquor business, contenting themselves with minor jobs. Strange Death of McLoon It is Mickey Duffy, the charges say, head of the gang that bears his name, who has ruled the Philadelphia underworld for years and shaped it to his own liking and profit. The rise of the O’Learys—headed by the four O’Leary brothers —challenged Duffy’s prestige. Now police are seeking to determine if the strife between the Duffys and

G. 0. P. ORATORS TAKE STUMP TO WIN IN MAINE Curtis Heads Speaking List for State Election Next Monday. BY PAUL R. MALLON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, 3ept. 4.—Republican stump orators were converging on Maine today in accordance with the campaign plans devised by Herbert Hoover. Republican Presidential nominee and his advisers. The Hoover leaders want to make an emphatic showing in the Maine State election to be held next Monday, for the affect it will have on the rest of the country. Their plans were worked out under the old adage that “As Maine Goes So Goes the Nation.” The proverb has been deprived of some of its significance by the regularity with which Maine has gone Republican the last few years, but leaders are mindful of the fact that a sweeping victory for the Hoover State ticket could be interpreted as a win in the first test of strength with the Democrats. In the Maine election next Monday only state offices and the United States senatorship are to be filled. Electors for the presidential race will be chosen in November. Senator Charles E. Curtis, Republican vice-presidential candidate, is leading the speakers in Maine. He is preparing to leave here tonight. Those already headed northeastward for speeches in behalf of the Republican ticket include Senator James E. Watson, Indiana; Col. Theodore Roosevelt, New York; Representatives Edith Norse, Massachusetts; Bird Vincent and Joseph L. Hoover, Michigan; Louis Monant, Rhode Island; Fletcher Hale, New Hampshire; John Barlett, assistant postmaster general, and former Gov. W. L. Harding, lowa. Hubert Work, chairman of the Republican National Committee, is already on the ground, directing the stump maneuvers. He left for Portland, Maine, Friday.

BOIL COUNTY BUDGET Council Faces Hard Task to Cut Further. Marion County council which was to start its two-day budget-paring session today, faced the problem of cutting expected expenditures when they already are held to a minimum. So close are the anticipated expenditures to the expected Income from taxation, that it was expected the council would find difficulty in trimming the budget perceptibly, although both the general fund and the sinking fund must feel the knife before the county finances are in safe condition, Auditor Harry Dunn said. Included in the budget is the request of Sheriff Cttner Hawkins for sixteen adidtional deputies at $1,740 to form a county patrol system. Stone Age Village Found By United Press LONDON, Sept. 4.—A stone age village, almost complete and believed to be 2,000 years old, has been found near Skara Bare in the Oakney Islands, Prof. V. G. Childs announced.

O’Learys was responsible for McLoon’s death, McLoon, a dwarfed, misshapen man, stood only four feet high, but in his wizened little hands rested vast power. In his twenty-seven years he rose from the position of glorified office boy in the State boxing commission to an influential henchman of Max (800 Boo) Hoff. McLoon was a strange blend of courage and cowardice. One week before he was shot down he laughed when someone warned him his life was in danger. The next night he might have been found in an Arch St. speakeasy, babbling “Remember the Day” and “O, What a Pal Was Mary,” in his high, clear tenor. There are two theories of why McLoon died. One story is that the shot that killed him was fired at William Belko, with whom McLoon was talking in front of his cabaret. Belko is a member of the Duffy gang. He, too, fell to the ground slightly w-ounded in the attack that resulted in McLoon’s death. , Working on the theory that O’Leary’s gang was out to “get” Belko, police arrested Samuel Feldman and Francis Petersen, members of the gang, and are holding them without bail, pending the preferiing of charges. Love Element Probed Through the other theory of McLoon’s murder runs a story of the hunchback’s love for the beautiful blond, Doris Kerns. Police proceeded upon the theory that McLoon had been shot because he tried to win Doris from Samuel Grossman, garage owner and alleged member of the O’Leary gang. Doris testified that McLoon came to her apartment two days before his death and beat her severely because she persisted in going with Grossman. Persons familiar with the underworld are loathe to single ou either the Duffy or O’Leary gang as the aggressor in the fight. On only one point will they commit themselves, that a powerful bootleg ring has arisen in Philadelphia, and that this city has become the leading distribution point for the illicit alcohol traffic. Charges and denials fly so fast

GENERAL MOTORS PRESIDENT COMES OUT FOR HOOVER

Country Does Not Need Management Change, Says Sloane. By United Press NEW YORK-, Sept, 4.—Because, he says, the country is well managed rTOw and does not need a change in management. Alfred P. Sloane Jr., president of General Motors, favors the election of Herbert Hoover as President of the United States. Sloane is the third official of the corporation to take an active personal political stand. John J. Raskob resigned as chairman of the board to become chairman of the Democratic national committee, while Pierre Du Pont, one of the directors, offered his resignation when he announced support of Smith. Sloane made it emphatic that he spoke, not as president of the motor corporation, but merely as a voter. He did not mention any plan to resign, as did Raskob and Du Pont. Favors Prohibition In the statement Sloane also said he fa v'ored prohibition because it had increased business efficiency, although he admitted there were defects in the present enforcement program. Du Pont gave his support to the Democratic party, partly because he did not afree with prohibition. Sloane’s statement said in part: “I am in favor of the election of Mr. Hoover for President. I am for Mr. Hoover because I believe ui him personally, his record, his experience and what he represents; also in the organization behind him. History demonstrates that this country has been more generally prosperous under Republican administration and as a result of Republican policies. We have never been so prosperous as a whole as under the administration of Mr. Coolidge. I am confident that Mr. Hoover can be counted upon to carry forward all the policies and principles which have contributed to this prosperity. Asa matter of fact, that is his policy. He has the experience and capacity to do this constructively. Pick by Ability To my mind picking out the chief executive for any government—the greatest business in the world—is no different than picking out an executive for any other business. I believe I should pin my faith on the ability, integrity, honesty of purpose and principles that the executive stands for. Would the stockholders of any business, the mangement of which has built up generous profits, made liberal disbursements in dividends, increased prestige and the value of the corporation’s securities, brought prosperity to the organization, be likely to change that management? As stockholders of the United States have we not received excellent dividends in the way of reduced taxes, improved standards of living with quite general prosperity. Why then is a change logical? ‘I appreciate there are problems ur solved—some of them important. There always will be. Blame Alcoholism for Death LA PORTE.
