A REAL ECONOMY
Because of Extra Wear

There is no better judge of shoe wear

Ne6lin SoleS serve me better than any
others / have ever used. They keep my
feet dry at all times, and do not Slip"
When you buy new shoes, be sure
they are Ne6lin-soled, and you, too, will
know better service from shoes. More
over, these shoes are real economy be-
Cause of the extra wear they give. Most
good shoe stores carry them in styles

Handley-Pa age Plane
To Attempt Atlantic
Flight Early in June

London, April ia fight from

early in June is contemplated by
Handley Page, though he will not
make it himself.
The inventor has informed the
Daily Express that he has entered a
plane of what is called the "Berlisa
bombing: type with four engines,
1000 gallons and radius of $500
miles. The plane will carry a crew
of six, including three pilots and a
Marconi wireless operator.
1T is machine similar to that
which flew to india" he said, with
wing span of l27 feet and speed
of 95 miles an hour. 1t has the ad-
vantage of four engines; if two fail
it can complete the trip with the
other two.
"The machine will use the new
Marconi wireless which can receive
messages all the way across the At
lantic. and it will be able to steer
through fog. It will also have an
apparatus by which it can communi-
cate with ships within 200 miles.
In case of forced descent in mid
ocean the wireless set in the tail
of the machine can be utilized.

Release 10000 Alien
Enemies From. Paroles

Washington, April 1l.-Putting
into effect the policy of removing
wartime restrictions as fast as
possible on enemy aliens, the De-
partment of Justice has ordered the
release from parole and cancellation
of bonds of more than 10000 of
these aliens throughout the United
States. As fast as their records
can be examined in Washington,
orders for removal of restrictions
are sent to United States attorneys.
Some enemy aliens will continue to
be held under restrictions and bond
until peace is declared, however.
This applies only to the aliens ar
rested during the war and sub
sequently paroled, and not to those
informed.
