Granada is reported. Hail is said
to have been found on the ground
and on the roofs to the depth of
six or eight inches at Granada and
McClave.
Had the storm come month lat
er it would have been disastrous to
growing crops. There is a greater
supply OF moisture in the soil
throughout the valley now than at
the same period for years, and crop
prospects were never better for dry
landers than now.

TO MANDAMUs STATE BOARDl
New Method May Result In Better Pay
for Teachers.

A new development in the tax con-
troversy at Jefferson City that may
aid the Columbia school teachers comes
as a result of declaration by Rep
resentative C. H. Miles of Benton
County that he will mandamus the
State Board of Equalization in order
to compel the equalization of property
at its true value in money, if an at
tempt is made again this year by the
majority of the board to ignore the
assessors figures and substitute val
uations of their own making.
Il told the school people of my
county that / stood for the lawful as
sessment of property which will per-
NIT the districts to get enough money
to pay teachers living wages and TO
maintain schools for eight months in
the year. 1 propose to make this
statement good by becoming the
plaintiff in a mandamus proceeding
against the State Board of EQualiza-
ton if it attempts to strike down these
assessments as was done last year and
curtail the educational opportunities
of the boys and girls in Benton Coun-
ty and other counties of the state"

STRIVING FOR MORE REVENUE
House FayOrs a Tax on Theaters and
Amusements.

The lower house of the Legislature
has engrossed a bill putting tax on
admissions to theaters, picture shows
and all other places of amusement.
The only exemptions are entertain
ments where all the proceeds go to
charitable, religious or educational
institutions. The tax is fixed at one
cent for each twenty-five cents or
fraction of the admission price.
The bill provides for tax on caba-
rets, the tax to be 20 per cent of the
amount paid for refreshments and
service, the tax to be paid by the
consumer.
Does the bill include a tax on
poker games?" Representative Nc
Pherson of st. Louis asked in the
House.
Il understand there is no admission
to a poker game; that you pay when
come out" Jones replied.
There was no opposition to the en-
grossment of the bill.
Following the engrossment of the
Theater Tax Bill, there was fight on
another revenue bill placing per
cent tax on coal and other mineral
products mined in Missouri, with
similar tax on natural gas and oil.
Chairman Jones said the bill was pre-
pared by Attorney General Frank W.
McAllister.
Representative Waring of Jasper
County, mine operator led the fight
against the bill. Finally the consid-
GRAFTON of the bill was postponed.
The house, however, did engross
bills placing 10 per cent tax on Gig
arettes, cigarette papers, playing
cards, cigars, smoking tobaccos and
toilet preparations.

TRAVEL IS IN j. S.
Overseas Flights Not Prac-

NO UNIVERSAL AIR
Mail Routes Open to ALL
America Has Best Oppor-
tunity to Use Planes.
By FRANK ]. TAYLOR
UNITED Press Stan Correspondent)

lOnlteu PreSS stan CorreSponuent)
BERLIN, April 2S.-Flying to Amer
ica can be done, but it will never be Z
practical means of navigating thu
oceans, either the Atlantic or the Pa
cific, according to Ferdinand Rasch
director of the Zeppelin works al
Staaken. Rasch was one of the prin-
cipal engineers who developed the
giant German planes for use in bomb
ing London, planes which would carry
several hundred bombs and were three
times as large as "gotha."
Rasch said the Zeppelin people have
decided it is not worth while trying to
develop air navigation to America.
Planes would have to carry so much
fuel that there would be little room
for either passengers or baggage. AS
a mail service, the planes would be
useful, but they would not be as fast
as the cable, and using them for post
would be an expensive matter, unless
governments did it.
For shorter distances, Rasch sees
no end of possibilities and the Zeppe-
lin people are preparing to use their
works producing a new peace ma
chine. For cross country work there
is nothing to compare to aeroplanes,
according to Rasch, but the air must
be internationalized, everywhere, ex-
cept possibly in America, If air navi-
CATION is to be made the most of.
European countries are too small
to make air serice worth while, espe
cially with the huge Zeppelin aero
planes" says Rasch. "The route that
planes will be most useful for will be
from Berlin to Paris or London, Rome
or Constantinople. That is where the
great savings in time will count.
Going from one city to another in
Germany, for example, will be all
right for small planes, but it will not
be nearly as big possibility as the
overland routes from country to coun-
try. To do this successfully, the air
must be internationalized, for the ben
eft of all countries.
America is the only country where
this will not apply, for all other coun- |
tries are too small to keep an aero
plane within them. / look for the
most remarkable aero development in
America, where there are vast areas
uncovered by railroads, or where rail-
roads have to go around mountains. |
PLANES can follow routes that will
save hundreds of miles and hundreds
of hours, both of which will appeal to
Americans. In addition, Americans
have the energy and capital to develop
the air route possibilities, while Eu-
ropean concerns are depleted in
finances"
Rasch says the Zeppelin people are
expecting Americans to take up the
Zeppelin engine, and build factories
to produce it in America Dirigibles
require house big enough to enclose
the Vaterland, the worlds greatest
steamer, and are more subject to wind
changes. These factors make the
plane the cheapest and most useful for
peace work.

team placed fourth in the mile ma
tional championship race at the Penn
sylvania Relay Games Saturday
Sylvester, Barlow, Brownlee and
Parker, running in that order, were
beaten by Pennsylvania, Nebraska
and Cornell. The winning team COW
cred the distance in 1925.
C.. L. ("Chuck") Lewis, Missouri's
entry in the pentathlon, captured
third place in that five-event tour
nament, by placing fourth in the
broad jump, 1900 meter race, and dis
Gus throw, and fifth place in the jaw
elm throw, Friday. n
Coach H. F. Schultz decided that
Captain Sylvester was not in condi-
ton to run the hurdles and sprints,
and then come back strong for the re-
lay, therefore he did not enter the
Missouri hurdler in the events in
which eastern critics considered him
dark horse.
The eight starters in the American
mile relay championship were Cor
nell, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Dart
mouth. Pennsylvania State, Massa-
chusetts Technical, Pittsburgh and
Nebraska. Cornell was in the lead
for the first two laps with Nebraska
and Missouri fighting for second
place. At the beginning of the third
lap Pennsylvania moved into first
place. and Nebraska, with McMahan
running, nosed out Cornell for second
in a beautiful sprint at the last.

There are five fewer schools enter

most up to normal. Entries in Class

nine men being scheduled to appear
this year, as compared with eighty |
entrants last year.
The larger number of men entered |
by individual teams this year indicates
that more schools are out to win the
