AIRCRAFT FIRM TO COME HERE

The announcement late Thursday afternoon that the Victor Aircraft corporation now located at Freeport. la to establish Its . business of engineering and designing airplane parts in the plant of Starr Piano company in Richmond. It is stated that the president has issued orders for the engineering hnS designing department to mobilize preparatory for the transfer to Richmond. This was the announcement made by the representative of the company Guido Gores. The Starr piano company will furnish the building which will be needed and al3o skilled labor x wherever it may be needed. Transportation of labor is discouraged, if possible. The primary reason for the transfer lo Richmond is traffic congestion and the difficulty encountered In accomplishing the results wished for in the construction of airplanes. It is necessary to get the units nearer together. Locations have been investigated within a radius of Dayton for some. It was necessary to find an organization that was capable of actual building and production. Richmond has been chosen because of the co-operation and the support which can be gained from the Starr Piano company by the Victor Corporation. This was the thing that made Richmond stand out as more favorable than any other place. It is thought that transferal will take place immediately. Mr. Gores stated that the facilities which the Starr company has are being more and Tnore appreciated by officials.

John P. Thistlethwaite An Appreciation

BY B. B. JOHNSON The death of John Thistlethwaite, aged seventy-eight years, marks the passing of one of the more conspicuous of Richmond's old time citiens. He is well remembered as one of the few Democratic mayors of the city, and while his election was proof of his personal popularity, his administration of the office was equal proof of his fitness for its duties. But Mr. Thistlethwaite will be remembered by our older citizens rather as a newspaper marf than otherwise; for he was identified with the business management of the local press for most of the years of his active career here. He came to Richmond over fifty years ago, and was connected with The Palladium longer than with any other paper, although his last work was with The Telegram under E. C. Martin. After his retirement as mayor in 1891, Mr. ThUtleihwaite accepted the position of steward at the Eastern Insane Hospital, the responsible duties of which he performed accceptably for twenty-two years, retiring about five years ago. Since then he did a great deal of miscellaneous reading and devoted much of his time and strength to the care of his home and the cultivation of his garden and his flowers. There was probably no man in Richmond who loved flowers mo-e, or took a more intelligent interest or real delight in their propagation and cultivation than did he. By all who knew him John Thistlethwaite was known as an honest man and a natural gentleman. And while he was not a member of any religious order, he was a man of fine instincts and high ideals. No man better appreciated exalted views of life and duty or was more ready to meet the responsibilities of citizenship, whether his conception of them was popular or otherwise. He vas never a dodger or time server, and his impulses were as patriotic as his convictions were positive. His was an ingenuous nature and he was intuitively opposed to anything that was mean or smacked of cant or pretense. He was so thoroughly genuine that he preferred to be thought worse than he war, rather than better.

His was a very social nature. He loved his friends and clung to them through good and evil report, and he held in turn their deep and lasting regard. Somewhat irascible in temperament in his later years, beneath it all he was as simple as a child and his heart was as tender as a woman's. Knowing that his days were numbered and inevitably filled with pain, he was ready, even anxious, to reach the journey's end. He suffered much for months, but endured it with characteristic courage. ' " As a family man the homt was his kingdom, and the home life the Joy of his heart. His wife's death fifteen years ago was a sad blow and the great sorrow of his life. She was indeed an ideal helpmate, and while he seldom referred to it directly. It was evident he felt that "her passing was to him and the family an irrepairable 10SS placing heavy burdens upon the young, and withdrawing the steadfast support and tender ministrations of a devoted wife and mother. John Thistlethwaite was an honorable man, a good citizen, a true friend and a fond husband and father. He was by nature cheerful, optimistic, unpretentious and sincere a true and manly man. His memory will be cherished by all who knew his worth, and those who remain will have the sympathy of the entire community. . This is written in loving remembrance of a loyal friend. Basalt is being used in Australia as the raw material for "mineral wool." which is required as a heat-insulating packing for machinery and refrigerators and a3 a substitute for asbestos.

AUTO FACTORIES TO REMAIN OPEN

Richmond automobile factories will be able to continue the manufacture of pleasure cars. It is understood that small allotments of steel are being received from time to time which, with the material in stock on . hand will keep the Richmond concerns supplied for some time. It is thought that next season's orders can be put out in a satisfactory manner, and that no factories will have to close down.

DEMOCRATS DISCUSS CAMPAIGN PLANS

An informal . Democratic meeting was held last night in the headquarters in the Colonial building. Campaign plans were discussed special emphasis being placed on having a good Democratic registration of voters in Wayne county. Harry Strickland, Democratic candidate for congress from the Sixth district; W. M. Jones, candidate for auditor of state, and Walter Chambers, district chairman, and Joshua Allen, county chairman, with a few local Democrats were present. Chairman Chambers stated ' that there were more than 1,000 Democrats

in the county who had not yet registered. An extensive campaign was promised by the members, present A notary public will be at the headquarters , every night from now until October 7, to receive registrations.

A motion picture camera Qas. been invented for taking portraits which are separated and mounted in book form, the appearance of motion being imparted as the pages of the book are turned rapidly. .

Says His Prescription Has Powerful Influence Over Rheumatism lJIseoverrr Tells Irua;Klstn Net to Take a Cent of Anyone' Money Unless Allenrhu Completely Banishes All Rheumatic Pain and Twlnsjres. Mr. James H. Allen Buffered for years with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work.
