—Aviation — THROWN FROM PLANEi SAVED BY PARACHUTE National Guard Observer Lives Through Dangerous ‘Stunt.’ Sergeant Fred Roulette. National Guard member, today wa;. busy blandly explaining bow it ieel.s to wake up 2.000 toot in the air. hurtling toward the earth, with no visible means of support. For a time Sunday Roulette derided he had had enough pi this aviation business I hen he found himself famous, instead of mourned. It all happened while the sergeant, was an observer m a guard plan** piloted by Lieutenant Paul A. /'artman was attcmpung a loop. Thimn From Plane T;;e plane whipst ailed, ipsidc dom, halt way round the loop. Zartgnan righted the plane and looked around at the back cockpit for a sign of approval ot his skill from Roulette. But Roulette wasn't there. Ijfre we leave Zartman t.o land and sorrowfully report to his -superior officer the ignominious fact he had lost a passenger. Now for Roulette. So suddenly that his recollection of the details are somewhat hazy, the .sergeant, as the plane stalled upside down, was attracted toward tiro earth, just as was Newton's apple. Unfortunately his safety belt was j jerked loos. His shoe caught in the j cowling of the plane, but the .shoe j wasn’t tied tight, enough and he ; wiggled out of it. Revived by Air By that time great masses of ozone, as he whirled downward through it as a dizzy pace, revived him. Memories of tiresome ground school instruction flashed through his mind, and he reached loivlound and yanked on the rip cord of his parachute, which he most fortunately had remembered to wear. The silken chute unfolded and checked his speed and Roulette's descent was halted as the chute caught in the top of a tree between the Rockville road and West Michigan street. A little swinging and he was able to grab the tree, release the chute and climb the remaining fifteen feet to the ground to receive an ovation from his lellow guardsmen on his stunting exhibition.

Two films, one showing early airplane flights, and the other depicting modern aviation history, were shown through courtesy of Allen Jackson, Standard Oil Company of Indiana vice-president.

April I.—Smarting under criticism that he was “suppressing evidence and delaying investigation" into the slaying by dry raiders of Mrs. Lillian Dc King. George D. Carbary, state's attorney, moved today to place the entire inquiry in the hands of the state at-torney-general. Carbary announced lie would go betorc a circuit judge in Sycamore with a petition to have Oscar E. Carlstrom. attorney-general, supplant him in the case. “So much criticism had been directed at me by the defense and other sources that I want to wash my hands of the investigation except to retain an advisory capacity." Carbary said. Charles W. Hadley, assistant at-torney-general, has been acting as an observer since Carbary asked a representative of the attorr.ey-gen-eral's office ut in on tae investigation. This move came simultaneous with announcement by attorneys for the De King family, that Philip Johnson. 27, a missing witness, had accused Eugene Boyd Fairchild, dry investigator, of perjury in swearing to the search warrant upon which the raid on the De King home was made.

‘WEEDING OUT’ OF OFFICIALS STARTS

Offices of All U. S. Attorneys to Be Investigated by Mitchell. BY C. J. LILLEY Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April I.—Weeding out of federal officials whose records have not been any too good has been started by the department of justice following AttorneyGeneral William E. Mitchell's announcement that offices of all United States attorneys will be investigated. The process will not. be confined to the district attorneys, but will extend to Unitec! States marshals, commissioners and others who serve appointive terms in the federal service, it* was learned both at the justice department and the White House. The administration is preparing

“dying for a drink." but owed a bootlegger money and couldn't get credit. “We stoped in front of Stafford’s filling station at Aurora,” Johnson’s affidavit stated, “and a man came to the roadside. I told him what he wanted, and he bought me a pin. of moonshine. “Fairchild an'7 I drank the entire bottle.” On the next day. Fairchild appeared before Carbary and swore that he personally had bought moonshine from a woman "about 50-years old.” Mrs. De King was 38 and the only woman who lived at the house. After impressive funeral services for Mrs. De King, who was killed by Deputy Sheriff Roy Smith when dry raiders invaded the De King home, preparations for the resump- | tion of the inquest went forward. Another week-end development

to get reports on all officials who will come up for reappointment. Already many oi these officials are serving beyond their appointed time while the justice department is being reorganized. Names of attorneys, marshals postmasters and other appointees for minor offices will not start coming out of the White House until the special session begins April 15. The fact that Mitchell has failed as yet to name his assistants is delaying appointments of those who serve under the justice department. The postoffice department already has issued stringent instructions as to how appointments will be made under the new Hoover patronage program. The same instructions will be applied by the justice department, it : is said, except that applicants do 1 not have to qualify under civil serv- ' ice for many of the positions.

(•which preceded the Johnson affidavit was the confession of Fairj child that an acquaintance and not he had bought U*. :nr at 1h? Dc K_ig home. >.i the search warrant Fairchild swore lie personally had bought the liquor at a house described as the De King home. Fairchild fled Aurora after the raid and later was found in Odell, 111. He told the following story concerning the liquor purchase: He drove past the De King home with a man he had known only a short time and suggested that they buy a drink. Fairchild said he asked the stranger to make the purchase because he was not known at the De King home. He said lie gave his companion $5 and that the man went into the house and came out later with a pint of liquor and S3 in change.

H I LJIJO

MR. MERLE J. BROWN AND SON —Photo by National Studio. Tclne, one that nature herself would ('recommend. Each day the Konjola ; Man, who is at the Hook Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, this city, hears amazing reports from former sufferers about the manner in which Konjola restored their health. The Konjola Man makes no promises or claims for Konjola—he merely points out facts, the surprising accomplishments of this master medicine. Cases like that of Mr. Merle J. ; Brown, 1252 Markwocd avenue, Unii versity Heights, Indianapolis, and ! that of his son Master Cieo Clifton i Brown, are not unusual to Konjola. | Read the statement of Mr. Brown, as he told it to the Konjola Man a few days ago: “Not only has Konjola benefited me to an amazing extent but it has also given new strength and health to my son, 6 years old. We were both in a rundown condition. I had suffered for eight years from stomach trouble, constipation and many symptoms of stomach trouble. Among them were gas bloating, a sour condition and a gnawing sensation in the pit of my stomach., Due to constipation I was unable to; throw off the poisons in my system.j My kidneys became weak and caused' severe pains throughout my body. I was weak and nervous and for three weeks I was confined to my home with lumbago. My son, Cleo, who is 6 years old had been in nervous state ever since infancy. He was never a strong and healthy child. He was underweight, very pale and was afflicted with a stomach disorder. Meals never appealed to him, and when he did eat, he always complained about pains and uncomfortable feelings afterward. He was subject to colds, failed to sleep well and was becoming a very sickly boy. I was very worried about him. “Konjola was so strongly recommended to me that I decided to give it a trial. I started taking it first and gained amazing benefit.-? from it. My stomach and kidneys were regulated, strengthened and cleansed before I had hardly started the treatment. I found that food of any kind digested perfectly. Sound sleep was restored to me and all aches and pains driven from my body. Konjola regulated my bowels so that the poisons in my system were properly eliminated. When I saw how Konjola helped me I decided to give it to my son. Now, I want to say that four bottles made a different child of him. He eats well, sleeps like a top and has gained in strength and weight. Ail signs of nervousness disappeared and have never returned. It is a marvelous thing the way Konjola won two victories right in my own home. I indorse Konjola to every father, mother, son and daughter. I what it will do and believe it a boon to suffering humanity. This is not an exceptional case. Konjola has thousands of them to its credit. It is sound and logical reasoning to believe that what Konjola has done for others it will do for you. All Konjola asks is the chance to make you well.
