HISTORIC RECORD OF. GREAT FLIGHT
Movies, Photos and Paint ings to Record Every Step
 of NC Achievement
By Associated Press

New York, June 21.-One of the unique and interesting features of the navy's recent transatlantic flight is the compila- tion for the historical archives of the navy department of a complete pictorial record of the flight, including drawings, sketches, photographs, motion pictures and oil paintings. This record will show the construction and trace the develop ment of the NC type of planes in which the flight was made besides depicting actual scenes of the preparations for the flight and it's progress across the ocean.
 Navy photographers photographed every interesting phase of the preparations and the trial flights at Rockaway Beach. Later when the course had been selected, other photographers were sent to Hali- fax, N. S., Trepassy, N. F., Ponta Del gada, Azores, Lisbon, Portugal and Ply mouth, England. where landing stations and bases had been established Several thousand feet of motion picture film and several hundred photographs were taken at these stations, and from these a care full selection will be made for the de- partment's permanent pictorial record.
 The task of making a pictorial record on ca nvas was entrusted to Lieut.. c. E. Rut- tan, U. S. N. R., of New York, who was designated by the navy department as the official artist for the flight He was assigned to the United States steamship Melville which acted as supply and repair ship for the seaplanes at Ponta Delgada. Lieutenant Ruttan, who is a qualified pilot, brought to the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-06-22

work a long and valuable experience ob- tained in painting naval aviation pie lures on the western front.
 During the three weeks the Melville was stationed at Ponta Delgada, Lieuten- ant Ruttan made nearly dozen sketches in oil, illustrating the most interesting and exciting scenes of the flight. One sketch shows the arrival of the NC-4 at Ponta Delgada with cheering crowds lin- ing the beach, and all ships in the harbor outlined in bunting and flags. Another shows the arrival of the damaged sea- plane NC-3. which motored into port un- der her own power after being adrift for 53 hours.
 Two of the pictures illustrate planes passing a destroyer station ship. The first, day view, shows the plane flying above storm clouds and the destroyer toss ing about in a rough sea The other, night view, shows the plane silhouetted against the moon and the destroyer aglow with lights and her searchlight piercing the darkness. Another sketch represents the crew of the NC-1 being rescued by the Greco steamer Ionia. Others picture ex- citing incidents during the periods that the NC-1 and NC-3 were adrift n the rough seas.
 The artist contemplates painting panoramic view of Ponta Delgada harbor at the time of the NC-4s arrival for frieze in the building or section of the navy department to be devoted to aero nautics It is probable that the pictures will be placed on exhibition within short time and later assigned a perma- nent place in the navy department build ing in Washington.

Iananasa Ehost Tales

From "The Mechanics of Japanese Ghost
 stories" by James S. de Bonneville, in
 Asia Magazine.
 The elements at the base of the ghost story of Japanese thought are simple. They are fear and anger, two emotions not separable, the one implying the other and forming a single motive--a fact per haps true throughout the rule of the ex- ercise of these two passions. They deal with men ndewomen and are com plete novels of every day life. Of the past, there is the carefully preserved tra- ditional treatment; as accurate as the delightful reproduction of old-time cos tunes and old-time life found in the long line of artists of the bursh, whether in painting or literature. But this is a trait, of the race, so eminently given to minute detail in featuring it's environment. It's prejudces are instanced in the great inn portance and strict injunction as to ob- servance and practice of longtime cus- tenn, in the ready reference of divers ills to old superstitions always uppermost in the popular mind, some widely spread, others severely local. With all the varied detail and confusion of plot the stories are all cast in the same rigid lines. Tn general terms-one read, all have been read This can be attrabuted to the essential sameness found throughout JaEanese social life. The ghost itself is
 
 spirit or, owing to some atrocious in- jury in life, it stays to wander the earth and to secure vengeance on the living per petrator. The mind concentrated in it's hate and malice at the last moment Of life secures to the spirit continued and unhappy sojourn among the living until the vengeance be secured, the grudge sat isffed and the spirit pacified. There are other unhappy conditions of this revisit ing of lifes scenes: as when the dead mother returns to nurse her infant, or the dead mistress to console a love. Ven geance satisfies the grudge time assuages grief; but the ghost can err by excess and find no easy pacification. The most strenuous efforts of any but the saintliest of men are without success in the redemp- tion In the case of Sainen, the repro bate cleric yet stalks the earth in spite of the prayers of generations of sinners and sinless, offered at the Suwa shrine; an instance of malignant persistence rare even in the ghostly annals of Nippon

TEACHERS OF PORTO
 RICO PLAN STRIKE.
Will Refuse to Sign Con- tracts at the Present
 Rate of Pay
By Associated Press

San Juan, May 26-Porto Rico is Threatened with a strike of 25oO school teachers unless the legislature makes pro- visions for an increase in teachers sal aries. The teachers are expected to re- use to sign contracts for the next school year at the present scale of salaries.
 Francisco Vicenty, president of the Teachers association, started the strike campaign this week.
 Commissioner of Education Paul G Mil- Ter put the question of raising funds to pay teachers adequate salaries squarely up to the legislature
 If the legislature takes the view that there is no money in the treasury with W hich to pay teachers the answer is that the legislature is the only agency in Porto Rico that can put money in the treasury by proper revenue measures said Com missioner Miller. Tt is high time that teachers should have an addition of real cash rather than mere words or praise"
 Rural teachers are receiving $40, graded teachers s60, principal and teachers of English, $75 month This is far from what they should receive for their ser vices in view of the high cost of living and especially in view of the fact that Porto Rico has been highly prosperous in recent years. Not only has the assessed valuation of property been increased from $1S2, ,00o,0O0 to $243, 736000, but our mer- to war prices and our planters have sold their products at figures never received before.
 "On the other hand, teachers salaries were materially reduced by the legisla -' ture in 1914. Rural teachers have since received an increase of $2 month, which is insignificant"

London, May 3o.-(Special)- )-During the last few weeks there has been q distinct improvement in the relations between employers and employed in Great Britain and the fact that diff cult questions have been discussed in public and settled is a good augury for the future The formation of indus trial councils, that is. joint bodies of the representatives of employers and of trades unions, brought together for purposes of consultation and open dis cussion has been partly responsible for the improvement. Mir. Gompers took considerable interest in the pro- posals for the establishment of these councils. when he stayed in England last year, but they have developed considerably since that time.
 Before the war there were arbitra- tion boards, but they often carried os their work in an atmosphere of bit terness, for they were usually only summoned when a dispute had reached an acute stage. During the war a committee was set up under MT. Whit ley, deputy speaker of the House of Commons, to consider suggestions for securing a permanent improvement in the relations between employers and workmen, and to review such relations systematically with view to the inn
 
 mfttee was unanimous in thinking that organizations must be established in which men of opposing views could meet. Hence arose the idea of the Whitley councils.
 The complete plan of the council is only applicable to industries in which there is already effective organization and the present idea is to have a na- tionai joint industrial council for each fT<45xs rixad The Ia two years the councils have been formed on these lines. Equal num- bers of representatives of employers associations and of trades unions are elected, usually for a period of a year. When the constitution is approved by both sides the ministry of labor is then asked to give recognition. This nyeans that all government depart nseuts in London will communicate with the industry through the coun- cf1-

France Gives Aid

The pouring out of French blood and the enormous financial sacrifices are not the only aid France has given America We are indebted to the French peasants for a perfect remedy for stom- ach. liver and intestinal ailments, which has not only been maryelously success full over there, but has been equally so over here. The ingredients are im- ported and put up for sale in this coun try by Geo H. Mayr, for many years leading Chicago chemist, under the name of Mayr'S Wonderful Remedy. It is a simple, harmless preparation, that removes the catarrhal mucus from the intestinal tract and allays the inflam- nation which causes practically all stomach liver and intestinal ailments, including appendicitis.

ATLANTA IS AFTER

The Atlanta papers of June 20 carry notices of the opening of a big campaign for securing for that city the 1920 con- vention of the Associated Advertising clubs of the World.

The phrase "amen corner is said to have originated in London, where, at the end of Paternoster row, the monks at one time finished their recitation of the "Pater Noster'' as they went in process sion on Corpus Christi day to St Paul cathedral. They began in Paternoster row with the Lords Prayer in Latin, continuing it to the end of the street. and then said amen" at the corner of the row. As used in this country the phrase describes the corner of church where the elderly members sit and pro, nounce the word amen at intervals. a

Vanguards of Turkish Nation


 From 'The Founders of the Turkish Em-
 pire," by z. T. Sweeney, in Asia Mag
 azine.
 The origin of the Ottoman Turks is ob- scured by the mists which overshadow the past. But leaving the realm of tra- dition and emerging into the clear light of history, we find a small band of mo- mads under the leadership of one Soly- man Shah leaving their home in Khoras- san and emigrating into Armenia, then powerful and prosperous nation. They were hospitably received and kindly cared for by the Armenians, who then and there received the serpent into their bosom which has since stung them to the death. Led on by the wander lust they left Ar menia and started down the Euphrates river toward Syria. On the way Solyman Shah was drowned In the Euphrates river and his followers dispersed. A small rem nant under the leadership of Solyman's two sons, Ertoghrul and Dundar went westward to find dwelling place in Asia Minor. Their intention was to throw themselves upon the hospitality Of Ala eddin, the Sultan of Iconium. As they ap- preached the city of Angora they beheld a battle between strong force and much weaker one. Not knowing who the mere, nor the justice of the ssue, Ertoghrul, the right-hearted man. formed the resolution to espouse the cause of the weaker side, and at the head or his 40 warriors instantly charged the stronger force and drove 1t from the field of battle It so happened that the leader ,f the weaker side was none other than Ala-eddin, to whose domain they were In gratitude for the effective lid lent him by Ertoghrul. Ala -eddin be- slowed upon him a rich country at the western edge of his domain which joined he territory of his old-time enemies, he Byzantine emperors. Whether 1t was gratitude or policy that caused Ala-eddin 70 place his band of fierce fighters be- .ween him and his enemies has never been definitely determined.
