(By Associated Press) LONDON, Nov. 3. The remark made yesterday by Major John J. Astor, who said "I am transferring my wealth from America to this country," was treated as a bi item of news In

this morning's papers. One headline read, "Astor"s Millions Coming Here. By some it was assumed that the ma jor, who is a brother of Viscount Astor, merely referred to his recent in vestment in Lord Northcliffe's share of the London Times stock, which ho and J. A. Walter purchased for more than $6,000,000, but others gave the remark a more sensational turn. Major Astor, who is contesting for a seat from Dover in the coming elec tions, made the statement in replying to a heckler who inquired whether he was going to expose his own wealth to British taxation. NEW YORK, Nov. 3.There was much speculation in New York today over the reported announcement in London yesterday by Major the Hon. John Jacob Astor that he was trans ferring his wealth from America to England. The realty and personal holdings cf the late Baron (William Waldorf) Astor in the United States totaled more than $S0,000,000, accord ing to a referee s report filed last March in supreme court. If this vast, fortune, in which Major Astor participates with Viscount As tor, his eldest brother, $50,000,000 is represented in realty. The property was conveyed to the two sons in trust in 1919, and the income from that source is placed at. $5,291,260. In ad dition. Major Astor was given out right by hi3 father Manhattan realty valued at mpre than $7,000,000. Several pieces of New York proper ty have been sold by Major Astor in the last few years, but it is consid ered unlikely he will dispose of all real estate in this country, but rather will transfer his income or personal property to England. Major Astor, in conjunction with John A. Walter, recently purchased the late Lord Northcliffes London Times at a price stated as $6,075,000 Election Judges To Meet At Democratic Office All election judges in the county will meet at Democratic headquarters in the Colonial building Monday even ing at 7:30 o'clock, County Chairman Frank McFail announced Friday.

(By Associated Press) SAN DJEGO, Calif., Nov. 3. For the second time within a month Lieuts. John A. MacReady and Oakley Kelly, army aviators, today faced an attempt to cross the continent without a stop in their giant monoplane, the T-2. Their plans which had not been altered early today called for them to fly directly from Rockwell field hero to New York. The plane was loaded last night with 735 gallons of gasoline, 100 gal Ions of lubricating and 25 gallons ot water. It was estimated this could be more than enough fuel for the voyage, which was expected to be made in

rrom 25 to 30 hours. On Oct 5, the two aviators took oft here on the same attempt and when fog forced postponement of the transcontinental trip they remained aloft over San Diego more than 35 hours, breaking all endurance records for a flying machine heavier than air. Since then the two lieutenants have been waiting for federal weather conditions. Reports from across the central belt of the continenfgave a favorable forecast late last night MacReady and Kelly tossed a coin to determine which would pilot the take-off. The coin selected Kelly.

M., the Franklin mountains, 40 miles east of El Paso, across the foothills into the Texas Pan Handle and cer Fort Sill, Okla across the northwest part of Arkansas, J over southeast Missouri, southern Illi nois, Indiana and Ohio, entering Pennsylvania at the southeast corner.
