Interfere With Scheme, Ex-
pertS Say.

Establishment of an aerial route
from the Pacific to the Amazon as
means of surmOunting difficulties OF
road travel among the Andes is advo-
Gated by G. M. Dyott, until recently
a squadron commander of the British
Royal naval air service.
There is no serious difficulty I'm

the Royal Geographical society. ave
have heard of the great height OF the
Andes, but there are low attitudes at
which they may be crossed. One of
the Andes ridges can be negotiated at
height of 1000 feet, but there is an
other rising to 1900 feet.
Peru" he continued, as peculiarly
suitable for aerial traffic. Aerial high
ways will undoubtedly play large
part in the future development of
that country. 1t is of Importance that
rapid communication should be es4

coast, and in order to do this the air
plane must come to the rescue"
Discussing the difficulty of travelling
by road, Mr.. Dyott said that it took
him five days to travel from one part
of the Andes to another, whereas the
airplane would cover the distance in
Is minutes, and In another stage of
the journey 1t took him exactly week
to travel q distance which would be
negotiated by the airplane in 30 min

"MENTAl MURDER"
Man viii Be Compelled to Face a Trial
on That Charge.

ou tHah o'8Ss
A man Is to be tried at Monganfield,
KY, on the rare charge OF mental
murder" II was announced by Earl
Fowler, commonwealth attorney of
Union county. The defendant is Rob
ert Millstead, alias Thomas Logan, a
paroled convict, who is said to have
served time In an Ohio penitentlary.
The man is alleged to have driven to
death, with fear as a weapon, Robert
Morehead, a prominent Union county
farmer, who committed suicide OH De-
cember 7. The specific charge against
Mlllstead is accomplice before the
fact.
Attorney Fowler says he will seek
to prove that Millstead impersOnated
q federal officer, causing Morehead to
choose between death and disgrace
which would come from the exposure
of some deed of his Of which Mill
stead had knowledge. Morestead made
known that he void rather die than
have his family disgraced. The case
is the first of its kind ever reported
In this section of the country and Is

OF more ti.an -FOUR day. Membership
figures have not yet been compiled, but
when II is realized that at least ten
women are a necessary requisite for
the formation of any one auxiliary
unit of any American Legion post it is
seen that probably $1,000 or $4,000
women were thus indirectly associated
with the legion through its auxiliary
units before the end of last month. To
what proportions this total will have
grown in another six months is for ex-
perts 10 say, but an estimate Of 1000
units with total membership of more
than $4,000 is not considered extrava-
CANT.

such units completely organized, has
a substantial lead over all other states
