MUELLER SEEKS
UPPER CURRENT
AER0NAUT WILL ASCEND TO
HIGHER AIR STRATA
Will Make Hazardous Journey for
Benefit of selence-Hopes to
Encounter Anti-Trade
Winds

Captain Augusta Mueller has the bal
loon "United States" inflated ready for
his scientific quest of eastward air
currents this afternoon. He will go up
alone and without a basket, straddling
the concentrating ring which brings
the netting down under the big gas
envelope, determined to ascend, If neces-
sary, to height of $4,000 feet, where
aeronauts say breathing Is difficult,
and the veins on ones hand stand out
like whipcord
The balloon will be released between
$3.50 and O'clock regardless of any
sunshine, as the ascent is made solely
for it's scientific and experimental value,
and not for any admission fee or COM
mercial return. Instruments necessary
to record altitude and air pressure will
be attached where the aeronaut may
reach them, and Capt. Mueller's long
experience with air currents will en-
able him to determine when he reaches
the wind he is seeking-if he finds 1t.
His ascension will be the first at
tempt at exploration of the upper cur
rents on the Pacific coast, and great
value is attached to 1t by scientists.
With them, the actual conditions above
the local winds are purely guesswork.
They admit that they do not know
whether the anti-trades may be found
adaptable for a balloon voyage on the
lines proposed by Dick Ferris, but
say that if Capt. Mueller finds them
he will secure the currents which will
take him over the desert and lift him
on above the Rockies.

Members of the church are instructed
that it shall be their duty to promote
peace, but are informed that it is not
necessary to form outside associations
to do this. The object. it is stated, is
to carry on the work for peace within
the church itself.
DR.. Gale asserted that there is no
hostility toward the large peace move
ment which is to find expression In a
specific organization, but simply a de-
sire TO do the active work within the
church.
eThe new rule, covering both the ques-
tion of peace and affiliation with other
rganizations. follows:
1t shall be the duty of the members
of the mother church and of it's
branch churches to promote peace on
earth and good will toward men, but to
do this it is not needful to form outside
organizations Members of the mother
church shall not hereafter become
members of other societies except those
specified in the church manual, but they
shall strive to promote the welfare of
all mankind by demonstrating the rules

six navy chaplains from the Atlantic

church workers who are members OF

yesterday afternoon. About so guests

steps to bring about an increase In
the number Of chaplains in the navy
were urged by Chaplain Dickens, who
said that only "a are now authorized
by congress. He declared that at least
"a were necessary. Dickens also stated
that the life Of a naval chaplain was
more filled with temptations and pit
falls for the unwary than any other
line of ministerial work.
The real navy chaplain's work is
never done" he said in the course OF
his address. He must be a personal
friend 10 every man on board, and he
must be able TO don a baseball mitt or
pair Of running shoes and make good.
Delivering his Sunday sermon is almost
The least part Of his labors. Why. he is
even called upon by the men to write
love letters for them, and almost every
week he receives inquiries from some
anxious mother who wants TO know
about her son and how he is getting
along
Nobody in the wide world realizes
the temptations that are set for him.
He is asked to drink-and there are
some chaplains who do-but when that
happens he loses his influence and the
respect Of the men. IN general. his Ia
bors are so arduous that ] think 1t
should be provided by law to retire a
chaplain after he has served 10 or 10
years He must mix and associate with
young men. and he should be young
and enthusiastic man TO do it,"
Mayor Taylor also spoke and declared
emphaticslly for large and up to date
