New Speed Mark of
200 Miles an Hour
Captain Moseley's Record Is
Made in Thanksgiving Day
Race, but Is Unofficial; :;
Average Time 1886 Miles

Captain c. G. Moseley Of the United
States Army Air Service, established
an unofficial worlds record for
straightaway speed by making 200 miles
an hour on three different occasions
during his fight around the 135-mile
triangular course over Long Island on
Thanksgiving Day.
This fact is brought out In his re-
port to Major General Charles T.
Menoher, director of the Air Service,
made public yesterday. Captain Nose
ley's average speed for the 1876 miles
was 1856 miles an hour, which is the
official worlds record for closed cir

NEED FOR GOOD ROADS
SHOWN BY STATISTICS
Though 100000 Motor Vehicles

Cent of Highways Are Surfaced.

Despite the fact that the United

the roads OF this country are surfaced.

299.135 are surfaced or improved.
Indiana shows the greatest percen-
tage Of improved highways. 4o5 per
cent of its roads being surfaced. based
on the last available figures of 1918.
That there is great need for good

(larly by the fact that 10000 employees

just before dawn and shot to death.
Mademoiselle Hoeltzer, a stage favor
lite, who betrayed the counter revolu-
tionists was found in a gutter in a
deserted street about the same time.
Marks upon the throat of the actress
showed that she had been strangled to
death. She had been playing in a
theatre and was very popular with all
classes of people. After her regular
stage performances, the Mademoiselle
would sing and dance among the audi
ence and at times leap upon the tops
of the tables of the diners and dance
for their especial benefit. In this way
she gained the confidence of an or

were apprehended were hurriedly tried

selle was lured by friends of the con-

had betrayed the plotters' condolences.

Near London Bridge

London.-Half dozen men who were
preparing to set fire to large lumber
yard in the district of Finsbury, an
important section of the city of Lon
don, less than mile north of London
bridge, were surprised by policeman
Saturday night. This attempt was al
most coincident with the breaking out
of incendiary fires in Liverpool. The
policeman challenged d loiterer, who
Immediately attacked the officer and
shouted for help. Five men with re-
volvers answered his call, emerging
from behind some empty wagons and
rushing upon the policeman who was
compelled to liberate the man he had
seen. All the men escaped. Searching
behind the wagons, the policeman
found cotton waste soaked with gaso-
line had been pushed through a gate
way Of lumber yard and he also dis
covered two revolvers and 100 cartridg-
es. One of the supposed incendiaries
was later arrested.

for Athens are officially denied here.
He has no intention of leaving Lucerne
before the Greek plebescite next Sun
day. Present arrangements, which are
tentative are that Constantine, his

train for Brindisi week from next
Tuesday or Wednesday and it is in
tended to embark there on a Greek
warship. Should deputation be sent
here from Athens to announce to Con-

few weeks ago married Princess
Nadejba Toubetzkoy, said to be the
most beautiful Red Cross nurse in
Europe, has filed a complaint for a
divorce at Green Bay. Schultz has re-
quested the court to grant an imme-
didate divorce and to refuse all claims
of his wife to share in his estate. The
complaint is based on an accusation
that the princess has former hus-
band, Victor A. Turin, at one time an
officer in the Imperial Russian Guard,

covered alive in New York state. It
declares that no divorce decree has
ever been secured from this husband.

Apologies and is Alb
solved of Blame.
DOVE OF PEACE ISBACK

The dove of peace hovers again over
the executive committee and officials
of the American Legion of the De
partment of Wisconsin.
Kenosha members of the American
Legion were informed this morning
that as c result Of the meeting in Mil
waukee on last Friday and Saturday,
all of the differences had been ironed
out nicely and that the officials now
had q perfect understanding with each
other. Because of the prominence of
State Commander Claudiusu G. Pendill,
formerly of Kenosha, in the affair, the
Kenosha post of the Legion was very
much interested in the outcome of it.
All charges against R. w. Gibson,
state adjutant, have been withdrawn
and the committee in a signed state
ment acquitted Mr.. Gibson of any
untoward act, or of any intentional
desire to hamper the work of other
officers or of any deliberate intention
to involve the organization in poll
teal affairs. Mr.. Gibson in turn apol-
ogized for harsh words trhat he may
have used in the recent controversy.
To Dismiss Injunction.
The temporary injunction restraining
the committee from proceeding with
the hearing of the charges against Glib
son will be dismissed on Mr.. Gibson's
application.
The adjustment. was due to the eff
forts of Attorney w A. Hayes, repre-
senting the Legion, and Attorney t. w.
Brazeau, Wisconsin Rapids, who rep
resented Mr.. Gibson The two law
yers, with the committee were in ex-
executive session all one afternoon.
Apology is Made.
When the committee met in open
session, Mr.. Gibson arose and made
his opology. State Commander Pen
dill accepted the apology and thanked
Mr.. Gibson for making it,
Mr.. Hayes then read the written
statement absolving Mr.. Gibson.
An assistant adjutant will be EN-
ployed and will reside in the same
town with the state commander
At the Saturday morning session of
the committee the office of state SER
geant at arms, held by Oakley L. Park
hill, Abbotsford, Wis, was declared
vacant. This action was taken after
Bernice Maltby of the Abbotsford post,
had presented to the committee evil
dence showing that Parkhill had been
expelled from membership on charges
of misconduct. A new sergeant al
arms will be elected lated.

ORDER CLEANUP
OF ALL SUSPECTS
Police Are Ordered to Pick
Up All Suspicious Char
acters in City.
TO STOP CRIME WAVE

With view of preventing a "wave
of crime" which has been sweeping all
over the country following conditions
of unemployment, Chief of Police Owen
O'Hare today gave a formal order to
the members of the police department
here to arrest and bring into the sta
ton every suspicious character found
lurking about the city. The officers
were not told to put out drag net
and pull in every one and everything
they found on the street, but to make
an intelligent cleanup of suspicious
characters about the city. 1t is ex-
pected that scores of these men will
be brought in for examination in the
next few days and that the announce
ment that Kenosha is guarding against
the floaters will have the effect Of
keeping many of the suspicious char
acters away from the city. /.
Driven Out of Chicago.
The activity of new police head
in the city of Chicago is having the
result of driving hundreds of crooks
out Of that city and it is declared that
many of these men are seeking new
pastures in cities along the north
shore. On last Saturday night a meet
ing of the police heads Of cities be-
tween Waukegan and Chicago in Illi-
nois was held at Which plans were
made for the most complete possible
cooperation in battling against inva-.
sions of north shore towns by these
suspicious characters It is understood
that this informal organization of po
lice officers will work in complete har-
mony with the police officers in Keno
sha and Racine and other cities in
Wisconsin. The order of Chief of Po-
lice O'Hare to pick up the suspicious
characters is in keeping with plans
made at the conference of the north
shore officials.
No Infringement of Rights.
1t is understood that there is to be
no infringement of the rights of citi-
zens in this effort of the police to
prevent Kenosha being overrun by the
criminal class coming in from other
cities, but men who are about the
streets late at night without any APP
parent reason for their being there can
be expected to explain themselves to
the police officers. Every one of the
suspicious characters taken in will be
booked on some charge and 'examina-
tions into their stories will be made
just as rapidly as possible. Scores of
strangers have been seen in the city
in recent days and the police fear that
these men may have come in from
other cities with a view of commit
ting crimes. Many petty burglaries
have been reported at places along
the north shore, but Kenosha hos not
had more than its average run of
these crimes.
