Aviation ‘MISSING LINK' TO BE CLOSED INAIR MAIL Direct Service, Pittsburgh to Washington, Will Be Provided. WASHIINGTON. May 18. The greatest “missing link” in America’s air mail and passenger service between Washington and Pittsburgh, will be filled June 8. Postmaster General Brown has extended to Washington *the air mail route of Pennsylvania airlines, which already connects Cleveland to Pittsburgh. Three planes a day, carrying passengers and mail, henceforth will fly in both directions between Washington and Cleveland. They will connect here with eastern air transport’s lines to Atlanta, Miami and South Carolina. Use Tri-Motored Planes They will connect at Pittsburgh with Transcontinental and Western Air for Kansas City, the southwest and Los Angeles. They will connect at Cleveland with National Air Transport, Thompson Aeronautical Corporation and Century Airlines for Detroit, Chicago, San Francisco and the northwest. Tri-motored Stinson monoplanes will be used. They will carry eight or ten passengers and 250 pounds of mail, making in two hours the Pittsburgh-Washington trip that takes eight hours by rail. Planes will leave Washington daily at 9:20 a. m., 12:10 p. m., and 5:30 p. m., arriving in Cleveland at 12:50, 3:50 and 9 p. m. Mail to Go Direct Southbound, the planes will leave Cleveland at 8 a. m. and 1:45 and 4:15 p. m., reaching Washington at 11:10 a. m., 4:50 a. m., and 7:30 p. m. It is understood that Youngstown, 0., will be removed as a regular stop on the line, and Akron substituted. A flag stop for passengers may be made at Hagerstown, Md. At present, it is necessary for air mail from Washington for the west to go first to New York. New Safety Device By Times Special PITTSBURGH, May 13.—A new device to warn pilots of dangerous stress on the wings of their planes is being tested in Westinghouse laboratories. The device consists of five tiny robot machines, placed in the wings, which transmit impulses to a flashing red light in the cockpit. Should an undue stress be placed on the wings, these robots flash the danger signal to the pilot. Aged Woman Dies By Times Special GREENCASTLE, Ind., May 18.

ILLITERACY LINKED TO BONE DRY LAWS

'Prohibition Thrives Where Ignorance Prevails,’ Say Crusaders. WASHINGTON, May 18. The prohibition issue, whose importance in the 1932 campaign has been a subject for controversy recently, demonstrated remarkable vitality today with a flurry cf statements, speeches and analyses, purporting to show that both sides in the wetdry fight are right. From the Crusaders came a lengthy study of prohibition and illiteracy, with the conclusion that prohibition and illiteracy go hand in hand, and that when illiteracy largely is abolished in the United States, prohibition too will vanish. This consummation, the Crusaders,' estimate, will come about 1934 Issue Long Broadside The Women's Christian Temperance Union issued an eight-page broadside intended to demonstrate that the fight against prohibition is futile, that it has been a dismal failure so far, and that the trend in state legislatures since 1920 has been to strengthen, not repeal, state enforcement acts E. Scott Mcßride, general superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League, made public a bulletin to members of the central committees, in which he characterized claims of antiprohibitionists as a case af “whistling through the graveyard.

DEAD HAND OF 1 'TIGER' STRIKES DOWN - BRIAND ■— rg ■ ■■ ‘Shade’ of Old Hard-Hating Clemenceau Rises to Defeat Ex-Foe. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Scrinps-Howard Foreign Editor WASHINGTON, May 18.—The dead hand of “Tiger” Clemenceau reached up out of the grave to strike down an old enemy. Aristide Briand, and elect an old friend, Senator Paul Doumer, to the presidency of France. Always dramatic, France's parliament lived up ta its reputation last week when it sat as a national assembly in the historic chateau of the Louis at Versailles. Up to the very hour of voting, Foreign Minister Briand was the popular favorite. Since the end of the war his star has gone on mounting until it looked as if nothing could stop him. Devastating in Death Suddenly, however, the shade of the old hard-hitting Clemenceau, whose body stands buried upright down in southern France, stalked into the chamber and proved as devastating in death as its owner had been in life. Briand was removed on the first secret ballot. What had taken place was this: Ever since the World war Briand has been devoting most of his time to the promotion of peace, particularly with Germany. It was that, he said, or war, Briand was instrumental in bringing the French troops back from the Ruhr and the Rhineland. He helped scale down German reparations. He collaborated with the late Gustav Stresemann—the Briand of Germany—to bring about a better understanding between Paris and Berlin. Coup Costs Presidency So earnestly did he labor in this > direction that he earned for himself the name, of “the man of peace.” All the while, up to the moment of his death, Clemenceau, “the man of war” and “father of victory,” stood growling on the sidelines. Germany, he kept repeating, was making a dupe of France and sooner or later would knife her in the back. Thus it was that when Berlin exploded its bombshell announcing that Germany and Austria had formed a customs union, the followers of the now dead and gone Tiger raised the furious cry: “See! I told you so!” The agreement, they insisted, was only a thinly camouflaged political entente aimed at France’s undoing. After all, it was said, the Germans had fooled Briand, and the coup undoubtedly cost “the man of peace” the presidency. Hated With All His Soul In life, Clemenceau hated Briand with all his soul. France had won the war. Germany had lost it and should pay. Yet there was “Briand . . . Briand . . . always Briand!” CAs he once exclaimed) forever holding out a Friendly hand. This, Clemenceau could not understand, and said so. “Briand, the defeatist!” he snarled. “Briand, the Guizot in carpet slippers! Why does France follow such birds of passage?” Then he answered his own question: “Ah, well!” he snapped ironically, “France followed the third Napoleon as well as the first. And, I suppose, she’ll keep on doing so until at last Germany carves up Europe and tells us what little corner she will permit us to crawl into and die!” Lifelong Resident Dies By Times Special SOUTH BEND, Ind., May 18.—Fu- ; neral services were held today fer j Mrs. Nettie E.

BY BEN STERNr?ROM electric trouble shooter to interior decorator for Governor Harry G. Leslie and now to oblivion would be the history of Frank Caylor, statehouse custodian, if Floyd Williamson, auditor of state, could have his way. But, for some unexplained reason, Williamson doesn’t seem to be able to obtain the co-operation of Frank Mayr Jr., secretary of state, in the move to oust Caylor. This refusal of Mayr to join with Williamson is causing a lot of unfavorable comment among Democrats. The statutes provide that the Governor, auditor and secretary of state constitute the state building and grounds committee, which appoints the statehouse custodian. Soon after Leslie was inaugurated, he obtained the consent of the board to appoint Caylor as custodian. a a st THE Governor’s faith and trust in Caylor’s artistic ability and taste was unbounded. Recently Leslie intrusted the decoration of his private office to the custodian, who spent 59,000 on the project. Williamson, since first assuming office, has been willing to appoint a Democratic custodian, but was said to be averse to giving the post to Jack Shea, Indianapolis Democratic worker. When, however, Williamson saw the redecorated office, he immediately declared: “I am for any Democrat for the custodianship, even Jack Shea.” During the controversy over a new custodian, Mayr had been holding out for Shea, he said. But when Williamson capitulated, it appeared that Mayr had changed his mind and was willing to cast the deciding vote for Caylor. ss tt a THIS sudden swing to the Republican custodian is a puzzle to intense Democrats, who want all Republicans ousted and jobs turned over to the “faithful.” However, it is recalled by those who watched closely the last legislature that the secretary of state sponsored several pet measures which would increase his political power. One of these provided for doubling the size of the state police force and the other makes compulsory the payment of a special 25-eent fee to branch automobile license bureaus. Although Leslie knew who had backed measures, he signed them without a murmur. Far be it from any one to suggest that a, deal was made for CayIcr and the two bills, but many partisan Democrats are considering the situation with this in mind.

DARK FUTURE IS FADED IN SPAIN. SAYSPOPE PIUS Pontiff Says Anti-Religious Riots ‘Foreboding of Many Ills.’ BY FRANCIS REA Cnlted Press Stiff Correstrandent VATICAN CITY, May 18.—Pope Pius XI today is convinced that the antireligious riots in Spain last, week were the “foreboding of many ills.” The pope told a group of Spanish pilgrims here in connection with the commemoration of the “rerum encyclical of Pope Leo XIII, issued forty years ago on the problems of capital and labor, that even prior to the vandalism last week “things in Spain already were bad.” “It is certain the responsibility of those permitting such a sad situation to arise is most serious,” the pope said in addressing the pilgrims Sunday. “Likewise the responsibility of those who performed such sad acts and the responsibility of those who did not prevent their materialization is most serious.” The pope then referred to the attitude of the new republican government, which has moved to separate the church and state in Spain “Things in Spain already were bad and foreboding many ills.” he said, “even without these violent sacrileges against God and the holv religion.” The holy see last Friday officially protested to the new republican government in Spain against the rioting which resulted in attacks on church buildings and the looting and destruction of two score religious buildings by fire. The republican, leaders, however, have been inclined to deprecate the significance of the protest. Measures have been taken in Madrid, however, to punish persons responsible for the attacks.
