CAPE HORN TO CANADA ROAD, HOOVER HOPE Scenic Highway Stretching Length of Continents Is His Dream. SCENERY IS MARVELOUS Mountains, Deserts, Ruins Ages-Old on Proposed North-South Route. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Foreign Editor, Scripps-Howard Newspaper*. WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—The early completion of a 7,000-mile automobile highway stretching temptingly from away up in Canada almost down to Cape Horn is one of the likely results of Herbert Hoover’s visit to Central and South America. The highway will be the tourist’s delight, the prize scenic route of the world. Starting from your own front door you will be able to make your way over paved roads to the Mexican border and thence on through an unending garden of wonders. You will see every variety of country and pass through every category of climate, frigid temperature and torrid. You will cross flat plains and wind your way through some of the highest mountains the earth affords; past gardens of Eden and across deserts where mirage succeeds mirage. Peru Has Famed Ruins The civilized raved over the discovery of King Tut’s tomb. Tourists annually flock to Egypt and the Nile country, to Rome, Greece and Palestine to view what is left of dead civilizations. In Peru, right here in the so-called new world, there are ruins every bit as interesting in their way as those of the old world, preserved reminders of a people who flourished long before r Christ was born, but of whom we Americans, as yet, know next to nothing. The great Pan-American highway will reach from your garage to these ancient ruins and thousands of miles beyond. What a chance for a future vacation! The proposed road—crossing *> Mexico, Guatemala, Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Columbia, Ecuador. Peru and Chile lengthwise, with east-and-west feeders carrying you out into the jungles or up over the Andes—will bring the whole Western hemisphere within the limits of your own playground, granted that you can extend your vacation for a while. Links Are Important To promote a real understanding between the United States and Latin-America. there is no doubt that the President-elect’s attaches , first importance to the question of communications—highways, airways, steamship lanes and the telegraph, to facilitate a more complete exchange of news and views. Being an engineer, Hoover sees the material obstacles in the way of such a railway. South of Panama it could not anything like pay expenses, even today. Building railroads in sparsely settled, mountainous country is costly business. So an automobile highway is favored instead. It is more economical. represents less capital, opens • up the country better, and permits of a more intimate come-and-go between peoples. Thousands of miles of paved road already exiscs along ihe route of the proposed -highway, particularly in Canada, the United States, and, to less extent, in Mexico. Salvador, Costa Rica, Colombia. Ecuador. Peru and Chile. The other countries will-be urged to help close up the gaps. not. however. just to provide, the world’s grandest and longest scenic boulevard for joy-riders, but as a business proposition, which will pay for itself by aiding in the more rapid and, velopment of the countries thus op med.

‘LITTLE SICILY’ KING SLAIN IN HIS HOME

Ally of ‘Scarface Al’ Dies Four Months After His ‘Coronation.’ Bu United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 9.—The throne of Chicago’s “Little Sicily” and a gangland alliance with “Scarface Al” Capone proved a death warrant for Pasqualino Lolordo. Lolordo was shot to death in his luxurious west side apartment Tuesday night, four months to the day after his predecessor, Tony Lombardo, was assassinated on a crowded loop street. The newly recognized Mafia chieftain was killed during a conference with three men, who, police said, were members of the Aiello brothers’ clan which disputes the gangland rule of Capone and his allies. Usurped Leadership Lolordo and his brother, Joseph, who escaped the volley which killed Lombardo last August, had usurped the leadership of the Unione Siciliano, Sicilian governing body in Chicago. Police said Pasqualino Lolordo was one of twenty-seven Sicilians seized by Cleveland police, Dec. 5, when they met there, presumably to elect Lombardo’s successor. The theory was that Pasqualino was elected to the hazardous office and that his acceptance cost him his life. Lolordo represented himself as a wholesale grocer and olive oil importer. He often had been questioned in connection with gang murders, police said, and was known to have controlled an immense traffic in alcohol. He lived on the third floor of an old frame building. Police arrived to find his body lying on a luxurious Oriental rug in a room filled with antique furniture and hung with rare tapestries and valuable art. Wife Identifies Slayer The slain leader's head was cushioned with a brightly colored pillow. Beside him lay a stag-gripped, bluesteel revolver, apparently he had drawn his revolver as he fell, but had died before he could return the fire of his assassins. His wife heard the shooting from an adjoining room and reached her husband in time to see three men, whom she had admitted to the apartment an hour before, disappear through* a doer. A maid corroborated her story. The widow identified one of the three men as Joseph Aiello, who also was held responsible for Lombardo’s death.

Arrangements had been made to bury Benjamin Wycott, 50, in the pauper's field when police discovered a packet of papers and clippings in an old suitcase beneath the ‘•flophouse’’ > bunk where Wycott died of heart failure.

INDIANAPOLIS, WEDNESDAY, JAN. 9, 1929

Modern Prospectors Use Planes in Barren North Country Wastelands. BY HORTENSE SAUNDERS NEA Service Writer NEW -YORK, Jan. 9.—Hardy sourdoughs who mushed over Yukon and Klondike trails would have been staggered by the thought of taking along a ping-pong outfit to while away the winter months at their diggings. And many a gold-seeker who nonchalantly braved the perils of roaring rivers and rocky trails, blizzards and starvation, would have trembled at the idea of invading the fastnesses of the northland in fragile airplanes. Yet these things are just what Captain Charles Sutton and a party of flying adventurers are going to do. Sutton, chief pilot, and about fifteen other aviators and geologists comprise the field expedition of Dominion Explorer, Ltd., a syndicate which is hunting gold throughout the snow-covered stretches of Northern Canada. Sutton is in New York to buy additional airplanes and supplies. Hunt Gold With Planes “There’s gold in Canada,” he said. “There are big deposits of geld in those rocks under the sr *w. We expect to find mines as profitable and maybe more extensive than those found in Alaska. But the cold climate and the difficulty of transportation have kept anyone from finding it. “Our plan is to cover the 60,000 square miles at the top of Canada, between Hudson Bay and Alaska, right under the pole in the Arctic Circle, from the aiar “We will fly over this whole country, with expert geologists who can tell by the rock formation where the gold may be hidden. All country that locks favorable will be marked on maps and other planes will take miners and engineers to these places to do the actual prospecting. Wasteland of Rock and Snow “Air hunting can be done the year around because the tops of the rocks always are swept free of snow. Actual prospecting can be done only between May and November, when the weather is sufficiently temperate.” The expedition started last year, ana already has had one year at the base which was established at Tavane, about 1,000 miles directly north of Winnipeg, considerably above Churchill, the last settlement. This is a wasteland of rock and snow with no vegetation. All the necessities for life have to be taken there. Now the party has seven shacks, built with double walls to keep out the snow and dampness. Ten thousand tons of coal have been taken up by boat, and gasoline caches have been established at the various sub bases. Large supplies of food, blankets, oil, clothing, and lumber have been provided. Millions to Spend The equipment also includes three Fairchild planes, a tractor and a Ford car. This year they will add two more Fairchild cabin monoplanes. Sutton was a war time Royal Flying Corps pilot, has three German planes officially to his credit, and years of commercial flying since the war. The explorers are a subsidiary of the Thayer Lindsley mining group, a syndicate of Canadians who have enormous capital and are willing to put years of work and millions of dollars into aerial gold rushing. Blind Pastor, 54, Weds Girl, 11 CARBONDALE, 111., Jan. 9. Joseph Benton, 54, blind Pentecostal minister, was married here to Selinda Clendenin, said by her school mates to be only 11 years old.

WIFE TO SHOW PROOF HOUDINI MESSAGE TRUE Envelope in Vault to Test Validity of Word From ‘Beyond.’ MEDIUM REPEATS CODE Reveals Secret Arranged by Magician With Mate Before Death. By United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 9.—Mrs. Beatrice Houdini prepared today to take the final steps to prove to a skeptical world the authenticity of the message which she says came to her Tuesday from her husband, Harry Houdini, in the spirit world. From a safety deposit box in the Fifth Avenue branch of the Manufacturers Trust Company, Mrs. Houdini expects, as soon as she has iecovered from a sprained back suffered in a fall New Year’s day, to take the sealed envelope containing the message placed there by Houdini in a pact with her, before he died, to test the validity of communication from beyond the grave. Mrs. Houdini declares that the message will be found to be identical with that received through Arthur Ford, minister of the First Spiritualistic church, Carnegie Hall, in a trance at her home Tuesday afternoon. Foe of Spiritualism “My friends will call me mad, I know,” Mrs. Houdini declared. “I have received advice and warnings from many who are near to me not to go on with this. But it is what Harry asked me to do. He ordered me to do it. It was the arrangement we had before he passed on. I can do nothing else.” The widow of the late master magician was reared in the Roman Catholic faith, she explained, and was even more opposed mentally to the idea of spirit communication than her husband, who was known as the bitterest foe of spiritualism in the world before his death. He had exposed numerous fake mediums and so-called psychic phenomena. In the latter part of the purported communication Tuesday after the code had been explained as the single word “believe,” the purported words of Houdini continued to come through Ford and a “control” called “Fletcher” as follows: “Mother Has Helped”

“I shall now stay close to this instrument (medium) and will have many talks with you, Bess, (his pet name for his wife), I shall try to undo so much that was done by me.” Houdini was represented as saying that “mother has been with me and has helped me to get this through,” Houdini, attempting to test to the uttermost the mysteries of spiritualism, in which he professedly had no faith, had arranged with his mother to send, if possible, a message to him from beyond the grave if she should preceed him. The mother died and for thirteen years Houdini waited in vain for contact with the spirit world through his mother. On Feb. 8, 1928, Ford sent to Mrs. Houdini a message from her moth-er-in-law which she accepted as the message prearranged between Houdini and his mother. It was the single word: “Forgive.” Repeats Complicated Code But the message prearranged between Houdini and his wife was much more complicated. It was in the code they had used in mindreading acts on the stage. The code words: “Rosabelle, answer, tell, pray, answer, look, tel! answer, answer, tell” were reported by Ford as having come to him through his “control,” “Fletcher,” last Saturday night. The result of this trance, as recorded by Francis R. Fast, broker and importer of 150 Broadway, and dispatched to Mrs. Houdini on Sunday was in these words: “Jan. 5. 10:45 p. m. Now he wants to dictate the exact message you are to take to his wife. This is to be written down in long hand —no notes. “The time: 9:23. Medium in deep trance. Controlled by Fletcher. Pulse 63. “Present: Francis R. Fast, John W. Stafford, Mrs. Helen E. Morris, Mrs. Dorothy Stafford. “Fletcher speaking: A man who says he is Harry Houdini, but whose real name is Ehrich Weiss, is here and wishes to send to his wife, Beatrice Houdini, the ten-word code which he agreed to send if it were possible for him to communicate. “He says you are to take this message to her and upon acceptance of the message *he wishes to follow out the plui they agreed upon before his passing. This is the code: Rosabelle, answer, tell, pray, answer, look, tell, answer, answer, tell. The code key was explained in the trance Tuesday after Mrs. Houdini had announced that the words were those Houdini had promised to send back. Mrs. Houdini revealed the key was that used in her mind-reading act with her husband for years. It consisted of ten words: "Pray, answer, say, now, tell, please, speak, quickly, look, quick.” The first word in the key represented the first letter in the alphabet, A, the second B, the third C, and so on. After the tenth letter of the alphabet words were doubled as are numerals, for instance the eleventh letter, K, was pray pray,” the twelfth, L, was pray answer and the twenty-second, V, was “answer answer.” • ' V. • V ” i* • ■. - > '•' w

ROBINSON MUM ON PACT VOTE Senator Asks U. S. Stand on Monroe Doctrine. By Times Special WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—Senator Arthur Robinson of Indiana late Tuesday delivered a prepared speech in the senate in which he advocated a clear statement of position by the United States in respect to the Monroe doctrine. He refrained, however, from stating how he will vote on the Kellogg peace treaty if the proposed reservations to the pact are defeated. Senator James E. Watson, who has assured various Indiana groups friendly to the treaty that he is for it, sat by Robinson during the delivery of the speech. It is understood Watson will vote for the proposed reservations, but will vote for the treaty in case of their defeat. Robinson never has said. The reservations proposed by Robinson are similar to those laid down as necessary for American ratification several weeks ago by Hiram W. Evans, imperial wizard of the Ku-Klux Klan. Robinson had the experience, rare in his senatorial appearances, of getting through Without being heckled. Only once was he interrupted, when he declared he believed that redent utterances unfriendly to the United States by Dean Inge of St. Paul’s, London, echoed the popular sentiment of the British per. .e. This was challenged by Senator Reed (Rep., Pa.) and Senator Bruce (Dem., Md.).

LEGISLATURE TO COST MORE THISSESSION Pay Boost to Members Is Reason for Increased v Expense in 1929. GAVEL FALLS THURSDAY 150 Lawmakers to Start 61-Day Grind; Monday Inaugural Day. Indiana’s $2,000-a-day legislative department reopens for business Thursday, when at 10 a. m. gavels will rap to order the seventy-sixth general assembly. One hundred fifty lawmakers and almost as many assistants will be started once more on their sixty-one-day grind. Estimates of the bare expenses of the legislative session this time approximates $132.000, while appropriations and salary Increases may entail the raising of hundreds of thousands of dollars by increased taxes. Practical certainty that the 1929 legislature, as one of the first acts, will have to break precedent by appropriating more than the usual SIOO,OOO for legislative expenses is due to. the salary increase senators and representatives voted themselves two years ago.

Boost Own Pay Holding $6 a say small pay, they promptly voted to increase the amount to $lO a,day; but did not so promptly receive it. When the supreme court upheld the constitutionality of their pay boost, the legislators received belated checks representing the added $4 a day. On the $6 basis, senators’ salaries and mileage amounted to $19,874 in 1927, while doorkeepeistenographers, clerks, janitors and other help boosted the total senate cost to $34,832. With 100 representatives in the house—twice the number of senators —the lower house paid its members for their services and mileage the sum of $40,525. Total house expenses amounted to $61,814. The $lO rate of pay will increase these figures by approximately $36,600, so that the legislature will be costing $2,000 a day, in round figures. Get Better Salaries The Lieutenant-Governor and Speaker of the house have the best paying jobs in the lawmaking body. Each receives the municificent sum of sl2 a day, the Lieutenant-Gov-ernor receiving, in addition, a salary of SI,OOO a year. The secretary, assistant secretary, and principal doorkeeper of the senate and the principal clerk, assistant clerk, and principal doorkeeper of the house are paid at the rate of $6 a day. Although clerical forces are recruited from all parts of the state, only the legislators receive mileage, at the rate of $5 for every twentyfive miles they must travel from their homes to Indianapolis. Once here, they are supposed to stick, theoretically, for they get this allowance for only one round trip. The flat rate of $5 is paid all other legislative employes, be they clerks, assistant doorkeepers, janitors, or what-not. Only the pages who scamper down the aisles with bills and motions draw a lesser amount. They get $2 a day and vie for the honor of holding their jobs a week or two. Fifieid to Sound Cali Secretary of State Fifieid will call the house of representatives to order, while Lieutenant-Governor F. Harold Van Orman, or, in his absence, Senator James J. Nejdl, of Whiting, president pro tern, in 1927, will have this distinction in the senate. Following roll call, new members will be sworn in. Then the senate, by a formal vote, will elect it*, president pro tem. amounting to the majority floor leadership. Meanwhile, the house will proceed with election of Speaker, who will take the gavel immediately upon election. After organization of both houses is perfected by election of secretary, assistant secretary, and principal doorkeeper in the senate, and principal clerk, assistant clerk, and principal doorkeeper in the house, both branches Sll go into joint session to hear jvernor Ed Jackson’s parting address. Adjournment will follow until Monday, when the speaker will name house committees and another joint session will be called to hear the address of the incoming Governor, Harry G. Leslie. Leslie and Lieutenant-Govemor-Elect Edgar D. Bush will be inaugurated Monday at 10:30 a. m. Bush then will take the gavel as the permanent presiding officer of the senate. Senate committees will be announced Tuesday, he says.
