BITTER CLASS WAR PLOT IS LAID TO REDS Nation-Wide Strikes and Riots Planned, Gotham Police Charge. BY HENRY F. MISSELWITZ I nltrd Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, May 2.—Confidential documents from Moscow baring the honeycombing strategy of red propaganda in fomenting strikes and riots and inciting bitter class warfare throughout the United States were disclosed today by the New York police department. Photostatic copies of letters from the Third International to agents in America instructing the reds to spread discontent among the workers and among the military and naval services of the United States were produced. Sent secretly, some of them in code, they outlined schemes through which it was hoped the “economic crisis” could be used to cause laborers to unite and possibly revolt. The messages came from Moscow through the Soviet embassies in Berlin or Paris, it was asserted—always sent by official courier and delivered to a known Communist in New York. Several of the letters were to G. Grafpen of the Amtorg Trading Corporation, a Soviet commercial enterprise. Charges recently against the Amtorg Corporation alleging it was a fount of red agitation had been discounted as false and without evidence to support them. HOPI BRAVES TO DANCE IN PRAYER FOR RAIN Indian Signs Causes Drought Fear by Medicine Men, Hu I ,iilril rum TUBA CITY. Ariz., May 2.—Hunt dreds of Hopi braves assembled today for the Katchini dance, the first of the colorful summer prayers. Gay costumes are ready for the sunrise Saturday morning when the two-day ceremony begins. Throbbing of tom-toms and chant of heathen songs keep the dance going through the heathen prayer for rain. At Moencopi, high among the mesas inhabited by this vanishing race of southwestern Indians, the Hopis gather each year. Fearing a drought, Chief Towakewptew has called his clans together for the dance. Indian signs have caused the medicine men to forecast that desert people will suffer this summer.

Learning to Fly—No. 17 Dead Motor Landing Is Taught Times Air Pupil

BY LOWELL NUSSBAI'M, | Times Aviation Editor Learning to fly has its ups and downs, figuratively as well as literally. Thursday, under good weather conditions, I was a complete washout,” giving a fair demonstration of what a student should not do. Today, taking my lesson at Hoosier airport, when the air was quite “bumpy,” consequently making it harder for a green student to perform well, I made a much better ( showing. From the first take-off. things j seemed to go much smoother, de- , spite the tendney of the plane to j bounce around in the rough air. Today Bob Shank, my instructor. ; gave me practice in simulated dead : motor landings to a mark. In the past I have confined myself to getting into the field at Hoosier airport and making as good a landing as possible, without paying attention to location. Today Shank pointed out a bare spot on the field and told me to try to land the wheels on that spot as we glided in. non IT isn't necessary to come to a stop at the spot, but rather; to have both wheels and toil skid touch the ground there,” Shank explained. “Try to judge your distance so you can glide in to the spot without opening your throttle on the way down, pretending your motor has stopped.” Twice I hit the mark, once by side-slipping when I saw I would overshoot it. The other two attempts were near the mark. After that Shank had me practice simulated forced landings in strange fields. Flying along at a safe altitude, Shank would close the throttle without warning, forcing me to put the plane in a glide to keep up flying speed. Then he would ask me where I would land if the motor really had stopped. Looking around quickly at the landscape beneath us, I would try to pick out a field where we could make an emergency landing safely. nan “'T'HIS practice teaches you the I approach to different fields on forced landings,” Shank said. “Also, it teaches you how to judge a field from the air. Try to select a meadow, if possible, but avoid a field with rows in it, because such a field usually is rough. “Fields planted in grain usually are all right to land in, unless the grain is high. In time your judgment as to suitable emergency landing fields will be improved. But you must remember always to have a field in mind before your motor stops. This will become a

habit, and a good one, after you have flown a while.” Taxing the plane up to the hangar after the lesson was concluded, Shank told me it wouldn't be long before he would permit rm to solo, or fly alone, if I continued progressing.

_ THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

FOES OF HEAVY VOTE SPENDING STUDY ILLINOIS Silent on Exposure of Quarter Million Used by Mrs. McCormick. BY PAUL It. GALLON L'nited Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, May 2.—Silently the senatorial opponents of large campaign expenditures today greeted the news that Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick spent a quarter of a million dollars of her own money—or four times the salary of a senator for a six-year term—to obt?T. the Republican senatorial nomination in Illinois. While public comment was lacking, private speculation was not. There was every indication that the question of senatorial campaign expenditures may be raised again in a seating contest if Mrs. McCormick wins the November election. Those who led the fight to censure Senator Truman H. Newberry of Michigan because he spent $195,000 in his primary election are withholding judgment because the full evidence about her case has

not yet been developed by the senatorial investigating committee. The committee has sent agents to Illinois to determine, if possible, I how much additional was spent in 1 Mrs. McCormicks behalf by the i various independent groups which supported her. Banner-tail, the kangaroo rat, is the champion high-jumper among all rodents.
