in this envelope are the first regular
news matter ever sent across the At

Through the courtesy Of the United
States navy and the British air minis
try, they were placed aboard the R-SA
a few hours before it cut loose from
Scotland.
Lieutenant Commander Zachary
Lansdowne, U. s. ~, the only Amer
lean aboard the British air dread
naught, personally took charge Of the
package. A United Press representa-
tive carried it from the London bu-
reau of the United Press and handed
it to Commander Lansdowne at the
British air station.
The incident forecasts new epoch
in practical journalism. 1t represents
the first application of new method
in dissemination which in a few
wears will be one of the accepted
practices of newspaperdom on both
sides of the Atlantic.
The Importance of this in future

The County Court
Rescinds Action
Taken Yesterday
100000, However, Is Appro-
priated for the Purpose of
Completing the Roads Now
Under Construction Through
out the County.

The county court reconsidered the
action taken at the forenoon session,
in which appropriations were made
for the building of the connecting
link with the North Carolina High
way and the Baileyton-Hawkins coun-
ty pike, which was published in the
Daily Sun Monday afternoon. 1t IS
not made plain just why the court
was persuaded to rescind it's action in
this matter, however it is stated that
it was on account of special bill
passed by the last legislature not hav-
ing included an appropriation for the
Baileyton road. Anyway, the matter
stands just where it did and there
is not likely to be further action
taken soon, according to the best in
formation that can be obtained.
That the action of the court in re-
considering this appropriation will be
a great disappointment to our people
goes without saying. It has been ap'
parent for some time that the com
pletion Of the connecting link to the
North Carolina meant much fol
Greeneville and Greene county.
The court passed a resolution allow
Ii ing the members of the road commits
sion to complete the roads in differ
ent sections of the county and ap
propriated 100000 for this purpose
The commission. expects to take vi
the work again at an early date will
the hopes of completing these road
before winter.
The tax levy for tne coming yea
was fixed at $3.50, being an increas
of only SC over the past year.
Court adjourned about a O'Clock
after having passed upon the appro
priation docket and dispensing wit
some minor matters.
