FLYING
TEACHER FALLS
1t. Tom Potts Crashes
Near Plains-Not
Badly Hurt

Reserve Lieutenant Tom Potts,
former flying instructor at Souther
Field, was painfully injured late Fri
day afternoon when plane in which
he was flying with Sergeant Pat Jan
ney, of Souther Field, fell distance
of $50 feet mile from Plains, near
the old landing field there. Sergeant
Janney, who was seated in the sec
ond seat of the machine, escaped
without Injury while Lieutenant
Potts had severe cash cut in his
lower lip and one of his ribs broken,
in addition to numerous scratches and
bruises sustained. Nine stitches were
required to close the gash in his lip,
this being perhaps, the mist serious
of his injuries.
Lieut.. Potts left Americas in
January. 1919, being transferred to
the reserve flving corps at his own
request, and since that time had had
little practice in flying. Recently he
came to Americas on business con-
nected with the engineering depart
ment Of the Southeastern Underwri-
tiers association and Friday decided
to take a practice spin.
He left the field and flew leisurely
to the Plains landing field, where
he alighted, examined his machine,
and soon afterward decided to return
to Americas. His plane had reached
height of $50 feet, and he had it
in steep "bank" when the motor
went dead, and he Immediately be-
gan maneuvering to make landing.
This he was unable to successfully
do and in landing the plane was badly
damaged.
A number of persons witnessed the
crash and Potts was carried to Plains
where his injuries were dressed. AT
terward he returned to Americas, and
is now at the Windsor hotel.
He was regarded as an expert fly
er while an instructor at the field,
and has many friends in Americas
who will learn with regret of his &C
cident, which he said yesterday was
an unavoidable one.

fed Poland that the Soviet army

RUSSIAN REDS ORDER ARMISTICE WITH POLAND
New Cox Manager a
Former Dry Leader
White A Princeton Man
Who Looks and Acts
Like Son of Toll
By c. c. LYON

MARIETTA, O., July 24-Down
here in Marietta, where folks gem
orally like to take life easy, George
White the new Democratic national
chairman, is known as fast worker.
The day after he moved to Mariet-
ia from Titusville, Pa, back in 1902,
White thought he'd like to represent
Washington county i. the Ohio leg
islature.
He was total stranger in the town
SO he started in to electioneering the
hotel clerk.
1t is the testimony of the old res
ldents that within month White had
introduced himself to every voter in
town and was ready to begin in Che
outlying districts.
The people just naturally couldn't
resist the affable and clever stranger
He didn't get the Democratic nomi-
nation for the legislature in 1902 but
he landed it two years later.
His First Victory
The county was SAFELY Republi-
can" but he was elected.
Here's how he did it,
The wet and dry issue in 1904 was
forging 20 the front. The big majority
of politicians in both parties were
wet but White was bone dry.
He sent word out that he'd vote
dry on every proposition if elected.
His Republican opponent wouldn't
promise.
In the legislature he kept his prom
Use. He became dry leader in the
House.
The Anti-Saloon League in their
conferences and prayer meetings
would generally end up with "Let
George do it.
In 1908 after two terms in the leg
islature White had become so dry
that the arid counties along the Ohio
river, constituting his congressional
district turned in and sent him to
Washington.
He was there two terms with Con-
gresham Jim Cox of Dayton, and
they became fast friends and pals.
The secret of Whites success in
politics is that he's cultured rough
neck" He's got everything any high
brow has. He's a graduate of Prince
ton and there he was a student under
Professor Woodrow Wilson.
But White came up in the school of
hard knocks.
Hates to Shave
The mere fact that White, from be-
| ing a well-driller has made more than
a million dollars in Ohio and West
Virginia oil, hasn't put any drawing
/ Oh HI In 81 1.c
| ill-fitting clothes and his wife has to
keep everlastingly at him to shave
every other day.
White is bulldog when it comes
to gaining his point. AS boy in
Princeton h was in love with a girl
in his home town of Titusville. He
spoke to her father soon after his
graduation.
The "old man" was rich and he
/ liked George.
en- tell you what I'll do, George"
said the father. "Pll give my consent
as soon as you have earned 100000
| for yourself and if you can do
/ that I'll give Charlotte another $780,
/ 600 the dav you are married.
/ For several years Titusville saw
nothing of young White. Stories drift
| ted back from the Klondlke gold
| fields that he was there and making
good
Then, one day, Old Man McKelvey,
of Titusville, got a telegram from
George at San Francisco, and it said
'T'm coming for Charlotte. Get your
| hundred thousand ready"
George married the girl and now
they have an interesting family of
| five children.

We ate that evening in the kitchen.
In bedroom, off the dining room,
slept our two-year-old boy. In that
room, In n drawer of the dresser was
a box containing all of my jewelry.
When my husband had finished his
dinner he made his way to the front
part of the house and while doing so,
he ran squarely into man. He ask
ed the man what he was doing there,
and the man answered: Pardon me,
sir, but I'm piano tuner, but think
I've made a mistake
My husband turned on the light, and
there, "A little satchel in his hand, bow
Ing and apologizlng, stood slim, fair
haired, innocent-looking individual.
My husband kept on berating him, and
I, somewhat ashamed of him, begged
him not to be so hard on man. who
had made mistake and seemed truly
sorry for 1t.
Finally, amidst more bowing and
profuse apologies, the man took his
departure, We found out later that
the shabby little tuners satchel con-
tanned the contents of my jewel case.

cause II was on my finger.-Chicago

"lou are poor creature and ought

Only rich men can take things with
out paying for them. And then you
must steal In the great town of Wind

Senator Chase, the greatest man any

why didn't you steal in some little
town In New Hampshire and the boots
Of some man who wasn't of any con-
sequence?
"And then you must steal from him
when he was on his way TO Washing
ton and perhaps the only boots he had.
You night have compelled him to
wait until some shoemaker made him
another pair, and shoemakers never
keep their promises. And perhaps by
the delay some important treaty might
have failed Of ratification because he
was not present in the senate"

know derned deal more about steal
Ing boots nor what l do" piped the
prisoner.
"Thnt is a sound observation" he
said. 81 will give you only one month
in the county jail and that not so
much for stealing as for your igno-
rance in not knowing better than to
steal the boots of great man like
