AERIAL MAIL SERVICE
TO ALASKA IS PLANNED
POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT ALSO
is CONTEMPLATING SIMILAR
WORK IN MASSACHUSETTS.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The post
office department is planning aerial
mail service.
The service will be to isolated
points in Alaska and Massachusetts.
There will be eight routes, seven in
Alaska. The service will start about
October LIST.
Bids on the routes have been asked
by the department. The routes will
be established, the government an
nounces, as much to stimulate devel-
opment of aviation, because OF its re-
lation to military preparedness, as to
improve the mail service.
The department believes that eff
forts already begun to finance an
aerial patrol of the Atlantic coast
indicate ready capital will be found
for the mail service undertakings.
May Extend Service.
If the service is successful it is an
a gradual expansion will
follow to other routes where trans
portation is slow and inadequate.
The Massachusetts route is from
New Bedford to Nantucket, fifty-siX
miles, and return, partly by land and
partly by water. Trips would be
made thirteen times a week during
the summer months and six times in
the winter.
An aeroplane would have to be
able to carry weight limit of 5000
pounds. The present cost of the SER
vice is $4,000 a year.
The Alaskan routes form a con-
lecting link from Seward to Nome,
hence to Fairbanks and back to Val
lez. Most of them call for service
vice a week throughout the year.
On some of the routes the cost is as
nigh as 100000 a year, and in win
.er six weeks is required to make the
rip. Tire aeroplane contracts allow
.wo days for most of the trips.

rines. and with these We are rapidly
equipping ourselves.
our system of Notifications is
reasonably adequate for all purposes
which they are likely to be called
upon to meet.
Now. take the matter of expense,
The five-year naval program calls tor
an increase of $500, 1000, at the
rate of S100,000,000 a year. The in
cdentaI expenses to this will amount
TO another 100000. 600. The army
four-year program demands a $3.50
coo. 600 increase. All of this is extra
appropriation over and above the
large appropriations which we have
been annually making, and at the
expiration of the fVe-year period our
country will then be eXpending on its
army and navye more than any ma
ton in the world ever expended in
times of peace.
Defense Cost Huge.
If the proposed military and navy
program becomes a law the United
States will be expanding over 20 per
cent of its total revenue for military
and naval purposes; that is, out OF
every 500 collected from the people
over $40 will go into the army and
the navy.
This proposed increase is in the
face of a present national deficit, and
it will mean the imposition of taxes
greater than the country can legiti-
mately bear.
But in addition to the great finan-
cial objection to providing ourselves
with something which we do not need
is the even greater objection that we
propose to present ourselves to the
world as an armed camp and thus
postpone for generations the day of
peace"

MRS. TOM THUMB NOW "a;
SHE'S IN BEST OF HEALT TIL
THE LITTLE LADY'S BIRTHDAY
is MADE NOTABLE EVENT
IN HER HOME TOWN.
As Countess Magri She Is Held in
High Esteem i'm the Bay State.
Met Many Notables.

MIDDLEBORO. Mass.-Mrs. Gen.
Tom Thumb. now the Countess La
vinia Magri, a day or two ago cele-
brated her 74th birthday in the pres
ence Of more than 300 neighbors and
friends from all over New England,
and with her husband, Count Magri,
another of the most famous Lilipu-
tians of all time, stripped back the
Stars and Stripes that yelled boul-
der on which was mounted bronze
tablet in memory of Richard Warren,
a passenger on the Mayfower and
founder of the Warren family in this
country. Mrs. Gen. Tom Thumb is
of the eighth generation of this illus
trious family which contributed so
much to the preservation of this
country in revolutionary days and to
the development of the country af
terward.
Her diminutive matrOnly figure
was to be seen everywhere. Her snap
ping eyes glanced merrily at her old
time MiddlebOro friends and school
mates and those who came from more
distant points, and she was constant
ly nodding and waving in her fairy
like and sprightly manner to some
newcomer.
Out on the lawn in front of her
Middleboro home, on which she al
ways spends her summers and spare
moments, was erected big band
stand. At the left within the circle
of more than 300 people was the flag
draped boulder, the latest addition to
those markers of historic interest
which dot New England, erected here
because this part of MiddlebOro is
known as Warrentown, where gem
erations Of Warrens have lived as
She and her tiny sister, Minnie War
rem, lived and went to school years
ago.
On the platform sat Mrs. Tom
Thumb in her tiny chair with her lit
tie fur coat and great yellow chrys-
anthemum-fOr she and the count
are ardent ffragists-with the
count in another midget chair at her
side. When the time came in the
program she arose and in her flute
like tones to them all how pleased
she was with her birthday party, and
boosted valiantly and right truly that
she was IA years young. Then F. W.
Holman gently lifted both these IA
nous little midgets to the ground
while the bugler played taps and they
unveiled the Richard Warren boul-
der together, Mrs. Tom Thumb max
ing d short speech of dedication.
Mrs. Tom Thumb is supposed to be
the most famous Liliputian in the
world. She is so famous and so much
has been told in song and story, fact
and fiction about Tom Thumb and his
wife that a great many people think
that the name is only a fairy tale
creation. She is famous for her
diminutive size and her brilliant, Vi
vacous personality This little wO-
man has toured the world five times,
and has grasped the hand of more
kings and queens and nobility than
any other theatrical person. She has
met every president from Abraham
Lincoln to w. H. Taft.
