br Arthur Brisbane HE’LL TRY A LINDBERGH WILL MUSSOLINI FALL? ANGELS THAT WATCH US OAKLAND’S FINE IDEA

Roy a red haired young man from North Dakota, wno did some air fighting in the war, and enjoyed it, has invested his >40,000, including his last dollar, in a fast Lockheed Explorer plane, and plans to fly by himself to Paris. He calls the trip that he plans “Doing a Lindbergh,’’ and hopes to cover the distance, 3,610 miles, in about twenty- five hours, beating Lindbergh’s time by nearly eight hours. If he does that, Lindbergh will be well pleased. The engine decides the speed, and Lindbergh, like everybody else, knows that the trip will be made eventually in ten hours and less. George Seldes, able newspaper man, returns from Europe predicting “Mussolini’s fall from power with his Facist government tumbling about his ears within a year.” Revolution will do the job. says Mr. , Seldes, and Mussolini's enemies at home are preparing it. He thinks Mussolini might plunge Italy into war to stave off revolution. Other rulers have done that successfully. France evidently is convinced that her first trouble will come from Italy, and seeks alternately to placate and terrify the implacable and forever unterrified Mussolini.Concerning that powerful leader, the marvel is that he has endured so long the terrific strain of gigantic responsibility. And a greater marvel is that, with absolute power and so many attacks on his life, he has ruled so moderately. . - . Angels that watch us and perhaps talk about us, must have been amused when they saw Henry Ford sleeping at Nancy, in a bed once occupied by the Sultan of Morocco. That bed could not well have held two individuals farther apart than the sultan of Morocco and the sultan of Detroit. But to angels we may seem as much alike as ants seem to us. Oakland, one of the most progressive cities in progressive California, establishes {hanks to the University of California, the country's first "adult educational center." The adult rather than the craves information, eagerly seeking to repair lack or neglect of-opportun-ity in childhood. No man should feel that he is “too old to learn." Desire to team proves of itself that you still can learn. On. the opening day of the university for adults, students admitted included a banker, a day-laborer, school teachers, two doctors, a dentist, a photographer, clerks, bookkeepers, insurance agents, a successful merchant and two truck drivers. ° Well might the ancient Chinese aay: “He that knows not, and knows that he knows not, is wise. Encourage him." Crime becomes more efficiently organised. A gang of automobile thieves, alleged by the to be managed by a distinguished criminal, formerly of Chicago, takes orders thru regular salesmen for any car you want. They explain that some cars were ordered for shipment to Russia and the shipment refused. You give your order for a fine car at half price. They steal the car and deliver it. It costs ISO as a bribe, to arrange for license plate changes. Chicago’s police, in the fight against racketeers, raided 10 labor union offices. Papers seized show the detrmination of racketeer gangs to “muscle" into reputable labor groups and control them. Fortunately, union labor as a whole it free thus far from any racketeer- > ing taint But union racketeering does exist on a gigantic and dangerous s«e. The welfare of the dnions demands that it be stamped out In a secret test Captain Orlebar, squadron leader in the British air force, beat his own new world’s record for speed, made when be won the Schneider cup, 355 miles and a fraction per hour. _ < He has recently several times exceeded 400 miles per hour, a ipeed that would bring him across the Atlantic in less than a day, across the Pacific by the daylight of one day. We are not far from real flying. Congressman Hamilton Fish, Jr, able, earnest young man, head of the committee appointed to investigate the “Reds,** says investigation should < cover the United States. He is right. I The United States should know a- ' bout all important activities, including those of “Reds,” and, if possible, I some others, including nationpl graft- 1 era, racketeers, bootleg organizations, i (Continued on Last Page) '

STREY ASKS ' COMMISSION TO EXPLAIN State Senator Objecting To Use Os Funds — Tells His District The Editor of the Syracuse Journal has received a letters from Charles L. Strey, state senator, concerning the bridge acrhoss the Ohio river at Evansville. In his letter, Senator Strey wishing to reach the people of this section of his district, writes: “To the People: “In order to give the people of my district an Mnsight into the questionable transactions and unfitness of some of the members of the State Highway Commission who virtually sold out our state to the tune of $2,000.0W.00, I am having the Syracuse Journal and others newspapers in my district reprint the following editorial appearing in the Indianapolis Star under the date of September 16, 1930. I am sure that after you have carefully read the editorial that you will insist upon the prompt dismissal of the guilty members of this Commission by our Governor. The names of the members are: A. J. Wedeking, Chairman; Jesse L. Murden and R. B. Boren. “It is “needless to say that such incompetency and reckless disregard of the taxpayer’s money is inexcusable, which undoubtedly accounts' for the delay in taking over the Hills and Lakes Highway. 1 think it is high time now for everyone, regardless of their political affiliations, to insist upon the Highway Commission to take over this important route immediately. especially before donations of a similar nature , are made to other states adjoining oiir good state of Indiana. Sincerely, Charles L. Strey, State Senator ■ / The editorial was as follows: Evansville Bridge. Plans Announcement of an agreement between the Indiana and Kentucky highway commissions to begin construction of a bridge across the Ohio at.Evansville,marks the end of a losing battle to rescue Hoosier motorists from an indefensible contract. Kentucky must fulfill certain clauses in the financial arrangement, but they are mere formalities in placing funds from a >2,000,000 bond issue at the disposal of Indiana authorities.

Mabie, in which the constable is accused of having failed to pay his wife support money for his two minor children as ordered by Judge L. W. Royse, when the divorce was granted. Mabie was cited to appear in court on September 10 and to show cause why he was not in contempt of court, it being alleged that he is behind on his payments. The defense filed an answer claiming that Mrs. Mabie had two children with her at the time the order was issued, whereas, since that time one of the a son, has been living with the constable. Last Thursday morning, the plaintiff, Mrs. Mabie, filed a denial to the answer of the defendant and Judge Royse will hear arguments on this action in the near future. —o WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON CLUB MET AT COLWELLS The Wednesday Afternoon Club met at the home of Mrs. Warern T.

TWO BOATING MAGAZINES DESCRIBE - NEW STORAGE PLANT ON WAWASEE

Lake Wawasee and its boating at- • tractions are advertised in the SepItember editions of two magazines of national which have published illustrated articles which describe the equipment of the Wawasee Boat Service, the new business established on the lake this year. One article, “How a Day Dream Led To Modern Boat Plant,” is published in “Boating Business,” and the other, titled “Mid-West Resort Lake Has $25,000 Service Plant,” is published in “Motorboat," the Trade Journal. The first, article starts out by explaining that Ken Harkless had a day dream in which he “conceived the idea of dredging a channel from Lake Wawasee to the ditch parallelling the North shore of the lake, which had been excavated for the purpose of building the elevated highway that runs along besid ( e it.” It tells how he entered into partnership with L. A. Seider who had been in the grocery business at Syracuse for 27 years and how the two men “sought to find the most efficient and convenient method of moving boats.” Describing the boat plant as “probably the. most modern establishment owned by any boat dealer in the Hoosier state today,” the article in "Boating Business” goes on to tell ho W’the two men visited the Hackercraft factory at Mt. Clemens, Mich., in order to see an electric hoist at work. They ordered one, and the APPOINTED CADET OFFICER Lafayette, Ind., Sept. 24.—A. J.

LOCAL BOY BITTEN BY DOG INS.BEND Eugene “Bud" Houston, son pf Mr. and Mrs. Guy Houston; who was injured in an automobile accident this summer, received further injuries in South Bend, Saturday a week ago, when he was bitten on both legs by a police dog. As Mr. Houston works in South Bend, the family moved there this fall, where Dorothy, Frances and Bud entered school, coming home to Syracuse for week ends. On the Saturday night of the accident, Bud and Dorothy had stayed in South Bend that week end, only their parents and Frances coming home. Bud started to the store in the evening to get some candy for Dorothy, and he says, when crossing the street, even before he reached the sidewalk, the huge police dog rushed out of the yard where her owner lived, and sank her teeth into the leg which had been injured in the automobile accident. He tried to kick her away, and tore loose from her, only to have her catch the other leg. A crowd quickly gathered as Bud managed to get loose from the dog, and she started for home. A friend rushed Bud to the hospital to have his injuries treated, and a policeman hunted for the dog to shoot it. The owner begged him not to • kill the animal, saying she was nursing 10 young puppies, and insisting some one must have released the dog from the yard where he had the animal imprisoned. The officer only wounded the animal with the understanding that unless she became mad it would not be necessary to kill her. Bud missed a week of school on account of his injuries. Mr. and Mrs. Houston and family came home for the first time since the accident, Tuesday evening, Mrs. Houston staying on here in Syracuse this week, the others returning to South Bend early Wednesday morning. — o JI RE DESTROYS BARN The small barn belonging to Dale Juday was destroyed by fire Sunday morning, at his farm east of Solomon’s Creek church.

CHLORINATING PLANT GIVEN BOARD’S O.K. Special Meeting Hears Final Objections On Alley Question Final approval of the purchase of a chlorinating plant for Syracuse’s city water, was given by the Town Board, and the remonstrance of Mrs. Bert Cleland concerning the laying out of certain streets and alleys was overruled by the board, at its special meeting, Friday evening, Sept. At its regular meeting on Tuesday, the chlorinating plant had been purchased by James Searfoss, the only member present, .subject to the approval of the othei - two members of the board. The chlorinator is of the syphon type, is made by Wallace & Tiernon, and is approved by the State Board of Health. It is to be bought and installed for SBSO, and is to be guaranteed for one year against any defect in workmanship. The purchase keeps the town’s name out of the bulletin to be published by the State Board of Health on Oct. Ist, in which Syracuse’s name was to have been published in the list of towns having unsafe drinking water.

To Searfoss's question, how long has the alley been used, Mrs. Cleland said, “Since 1903.” She was then asked how' long the electric light company had its poles in this alley. To this question she said that she did not know, but she remembered telling- linemen of the electric light company that it was private property, and she showed the linemen where they could place the poles. Asked by the board if her father had ever plowed up the land in question, Mrs. Cleland answered “No." (Continued on Last Page)
