TREASURE DIGGER WINS SUIT
New Jersey Preacher Doesn't Have to
Pay Farmer $4,000 on Note,
Says Court.

Paterson, N. J.-Frederick Loehrs,
pastor of the Congregation of Eniight-
eminent of Soul and Spirit, will not be
compelled to pay $4,000 for the priv
ilege of digging up farm in quest of
buried treasure. A jury in the, cir
cult court here dismissed the suit
against him on grounds of mo cause
for action"
The plaintiff was Daniel Balsinger,
who said he had loaned Loehrs $4,000
on a note. The pastor testified that
Balsinger told him of conversation
Balsinger had with woman, in which
the latter recounted dream in which
over 100000 worth of jewelry and
gold was hurled on Balsinger's farm
in Oakland, N. j.
The pastor agreed to buy the farm,
he said, and gave Balsinger $40 in
cash and the note for $1,000. Then
he and Mrs. Sophie Sautter, treasurer
of the congregation, and Mrs. Marie
Blumer, secretary, dug and dug in
vain for the valuables.

New Devices to

for the transcontinental service when
it is installed. Heretofore the only
argument against the aerial mail plane
| was that railroads were more depend
able than flying machines for long
| hauls, that planes could not make
| transcontinental or long cross-country
| flights with surety of success be-
cause the weather might either delay
the start or force a landing on unde-
sirable ground.
There was much in that argument
| until the wireless was called into play
| in behalf Of the air mail plane"
Cut Down the Time.
Air service across the continent from
New York to San Francisco will cut
down the time of transmission of mail
by almost two days, according to Mr..
Braeger. He says:
"The proposed transcontinental air
mail from New York to San Francisco
is the result of our inability to get the
railroads to give the Pacific coast
cities, notably Los Angeles, San Fran
cisco and Seattle, an efficient mail
service. A letter mailed in New York
and making all connections takes 90
hours to reach San Francisco.
IF you write letter Monday it will
leave New York at 8 40 o'clock that
night, and if the trains are on time
will arrive in San Francisco at IL 80
o'clock Friday afternoon. During 20
days In October the mail reached San
Francisco on schedule only five times.
When the trains were as much as an
hour late the mail was not delivered
until Saturday morning.
"By the air mail route letters writ
ten Monday would leave New York
Tuesday morning, arrived in Omaha,
Neb.. that afternoon in great planes
of the type which are now being COM
pleted for the mail service; arrive at
Battle Mountain, New, on Wednesday
afternoon and be in the San Francisco
post office by 8 o'clock Thursday morn
ing; in fact, delivered almost two days
ahead of the mail sent overland by
train.
"This route, If congress permits the
carrying out OF present plans, will be
operated by multimotored planes car
rying ton of mail from New York to
Omaha, and then onto the Coast by
planes carrying 1900 pounds over the
Rockies.
1.-THE West has been aroused in
favor of this service, but what con-
gress will do in the matter remains to
be seen. The trouble with aviation in
America is lack of vision and ignor-
ance of the problems that confront
manufacturers. Until the national
congress obtains a clearer grasp Of
this subject the United States will
steadily slip back while Europe goes
forward. y1G

Life for Those in
Shadou of Death
Plea to Kenosha

A call to Kenoshans to rally for the
$4,000 campaign for Jewish relief over
seas, is being made by the Kenosha com
mittee in charge of the work this week.
The plea for funds to carry on this
much needed relief, is stated as fol-
lows by one Of the leaders in the cam
paign: cit is matter Of life or death
for millions who are starving in the re-
gions devastated during this war. For
almost year pitiful faces have been
turned toward America, wistfully wait
ing for food. The signing Of the armis-
tlce silenced the guns, but has not
quelled the pangs of starvation.
More than 100000 Jews are suf-
fering today as people never suffered
before. In Poland alone there are
100000 children who will die this win
ter il their condition is not relieved.
They are hungry and homeless, sleeping
in streets, shivering with the cold
Up to this time the Jews of America
have among themselves collected about
$25,000,Q00, all of which has been wise
ly and carefully distributed abroad as
evidenced by statement from Herbert
Hoover. Thirty-fve million dollars
are now needed to carry on necessary
relief work
The campaign is purely on a non
sectarian basis, it is an appeal to peo-
pies of all religions and beliefs to join
in the giving and share in the knowl-
edge that they have really helped a
worthy cause.
Contributions are purely voluntary
and should be left at any of the Ke-
nosha banks.

Letters Tell of Need.
This is the rather odd proposition
which is being put up to the women Of
the local Jewish Ladies Aid Society.
Letters which have just been received
from the Zionist headquarters in New
York put the question up to the Off
Gals of the local organization. One
of these letters states that it is i'm
possible for many of the orphans in
Palestine to take advantage of the free
baths which are furnished at the clinics
as each child must come supplied with
soap and towels. The letter urges the
officials to contribute a towel in which
is tied a piece of soap and wash cloth
and asks that they ask their friends to
do likewise.

Extend Thanks for Contributions
One of the letters thanks the local
Hadassah chapter for the two boxes of
clothing which was contributed for the
orphans. These boxes contained new
clothing to the value Of $500 and
$500 in cash. While it is still neces-
sary to supply infants layettes, out
fits for the orphans, and hospital sup
plies, it is most urgent that the eleanli-
ness of the orphans be looked after
first and the Jewish Ladies Aid Socie-
ty will do what they can to make it
possible for the little boys and girls in
Palestine to get their baths.
The general committee will meet at
the Chamber of Commerce this even
ing to receive reports of the progress
of the campaign. 1t was said that a
considerable sum Of money was being
received at the various repositories
for funds.
