LONDON, Oct. 20.-Arthur Hender-

representatives. expressing regret that
he cannot attend the conference and
saying he hopes to make an extensive
trip through the United States and
Canada next year
Secretary Wilson's decision, as made
puolic IN letter to Secretary Lansing
October II, did not refer specifically to
the possible non-representation Of the
United States at the conference, but
was based upon the fact that the con-
ference itself would have no standing
unless the treaty was in effect. He
pointed out that as there was no pro-
vision in the treaty for postponng the
conference, If it were not convened in
October it could not be convened at
all without amending the treaty. He
announced therefore that if the treaty
we're not in effect on October 29 he

WASHINGTON. Oct 2O.-"Authen-
tic information regarding the reported
capture of Tetrograd by General Yu-
denitch's army was asked of the State
Department in a resolution to-day by
Representative Mason, Republican, OF
Illinois
Delpl of the anti Bolshevik victo-
ries, the resolution said, was Sub
merged in press dispatches. and it
added "the purpose of flooding the
press with these misleading reports
was to enable certain interests to bull

PARIS, Oct. 2o.-The situation at
Riga is critical, according to news
reaching Paris yesterday, says the
Petit Parisien." The Lettish army
has insufficient electives to resist the
attacks of forces commanded by
Colonel Avaloff- Bermondt, and also
lacks artillery and materials of war,
the newspaper says.
Contradictory reports are received
from Russia and it is impossible to
confirm rumors that Petrograd has
been taken by the Northwestern Rus
sian army under General Yudenitch.

Army Plans Flights to
asia, Alaska, Panama

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-The Senate
Military Committee voted unanimously
to-day to recommend an additional ap-
preparation of $15,000,0OO for army air
craft construction, in order that plans
of the Air Service to establish routes
to Panama, Alaska, and even to Asia.
may be carried out.
Action by the committee followed the
appearance of Secretary Baker and
Brigadier General Mitchell of the Air
Service, to explain the army's plans.
General Mitchell said a three-dav
flight to Alaska across Canada would be
attempted this winter. If cold weather
flying proves successful, he added. a
regular route to Alaska will be estah-
lished, to be followed probably bv n
route to Asia, with only twentv-one-
mile water span to be crossed The
Panama route. he said, would be via
Florida and Cuba, and both routes
should be developed, he added. for mil
itary reasons.
Congress voted $4,000 900 for avia-
tion in the army bill Secretary Baker
asked that the additional $4,000 900 be
appropriated in the pending deficiency
bill.
With total of $4,000, 900, General
Mitchell said, it is proposed to build
200 pursuit Liberty -motorcd planes.
200 Martin bombers and 200 expert
mental pursuit planes.

Kerr Sets Endurance Record
FLYING With IL PASSENGERS

The giant Handley Page super-bi-
plane Atlantic, which landed at
Greenport, L. l., in darkness and a
driving rain Thursday midnight, estab-
lished a worlds record for endurance
with twelve passengers.
Vice-Admiral Mark Kerr, commander
of the plane, said yesterday, "No
other machine carrying twelve passen-
gers has ever been in the air continu-
ously SO long as twelve hours and one
minute.
we flew the first part of the trip
at 10000 feet, but bad weather forced
us down to 5000 feet. We we're only
200 feet up when over Greenport. Over
that place we were using our reserve
supply of petrol, which is in twenty
gallon tanks, one over each of the four
engines. Our main tank was empty.
We were flying over here looking
through the darkness for a landing.
We had our special water suits ready
in case we should have to come down
in the water"
Admiral Kerr is fifty-five years old
and has been flying for seven years.
He declared there was nothing to the
claim that young men are better fitted
for flying.
The giant ship will proceed to
Mitchell Field. Long Island, as soon
as supply of gasolcne can be had.
