I'VE could have made a landing then.
but thought we would like to make n
more decent flight. and so decided to
go on. This We did at $ o'clock. The
weather was fine at first. but later in
the evening we ran into gale with
heavy rain and were not sure where
we were About midnight we saw a
city below us and decided it was OF
tawa, Canada. but there was little
chance to make landing. and so we
decided TO wait until morning.

fully dark, but although We were
travelling fast and the wind was blow
ing from the southwest. we thought
we would be in good shape to make q
landing in the morning. At daylight
IL was still raining. with a thick fog.
Occasionally we would get below the
low hanging clouds, but always we
could see nothing but great forests,
and there was nothing 20 do but go on.
I'VE had eaten all the food we had
with us during the night. and were
beginning to get n little hungry We
had n couple OF packages OF cigarettes.
but OF course We could not smoke. be-
cause of the inhammable material OF
the balloon. and We began to realize
that We were in poor shape. We had
twenty-one bags of sand weighing
thirty-one pounds each. which was all
the expendable ballast. and after we
had thrown that out we still touched
the tops Of tall trees a number OF
times.

was the pilot that flew the NC-i across
the Atlantic with Read.
4 fierce storm hit us that night and
finally we were forced to land next day
on account OF low ballast. We found
we had flown miles out of civilized
country and north over fields. lakes and
forests covered with snow and ice. We
had to land Tuesday at 80 p. II. We
did not know where we were
We had no charts, only a compass,
three carrier pigeons and no food Our

TELLS DRAMATIC TALE
KloOr's BOyish Enthusiasm
Spurned Chance to Land in
New York State.

Special Despctch to THE New YORK HERALD.
MATTICE, Ont, Jan. 1.-THE trip OF
the American naval balloon A-559S, ac
cording to the three officers who rode
in the basket from Rockaway Point
n. Y. TO the shore of James Bay
never has had parallel. From the
moment when New York city dropped
out of sight below great bank OF
clouds to the time when the faint cry
of trapped dog echoed up to the
three officers as they scudded along
thousands of feet above northern On
tario every minute was packed with
thrills, discomforts and danger of i'm
m!nent death.
SO the story Of the flight goes as il
was related late to-day, first by one
airman and then by another.
The story with the fullest details
was that of Lieut.. Farrell. He said
Eve left Roclaway Point on De
cember 13 on q little balloon hop fol
just us three, our object being to get
experience and practice. We left with
four pigeons. but let one go when fly
ing over the Brooklyn Navy Yard
Lieut.. Kloor was in charge, although
was the senior officer. having twenty
five years connection with the naval
service and having had three years
flying experience. Lieut.. Hinton, al
though an experienced airman. was
never before up In balloon.
''When we left had my uniform in
my grip, Hinton and Kloor wearing
theirs. None Of our uniforms were
electrically heated. We carried flying
shoes, eight sandwiches. two thermos
bottles of coffee, but had no water, as
we expected 10 land the next morning
somewhere In New York State.
"We had no chart or map, except a
map of the Quebec Central. which be-
longed 10 me. In the course Of our
first day out we had three chances to
land. AS matter Of fact we did be-
come enmeshed in tall tree and were
there long enough to talk to a man,
who did not appear clear as to just
how far we were from town or city
Of any size. although he said the place
we were at was called Wells.

THE SUDDEN RISE OF COTTON

TIE sudden and rapid advance in cotton has been the feature of
the business world in the last few days. Some business experts
: see in il the beginning Of a general revival in business conditions.
Especially do they think this is true when coupled with the announce
menf OF the war finance corporation that il is ready TO make large
loans
II the rapid rise in cotton is followed by similar advances in live
stock prices and in agricultural products then it may be true that bet
ter business conditions are here for there will be a general renewal Of
buying.
But in the present phases Of readiustment the outstanding task
for finance and business Is TO start activities that will diminish the
ranks Of the army of the unemployed. For months the balance sheet
Of American business has been suffering from timidity aud a lack Of
enterprise. As fall and winter loom ahead several million Americans
who want to toll seem unable to find am outlet for their desire. Labor
is pcrisbable, too, and cannot afford to wait.
The calling of the unemployment conference by President Hard
ing last week reveals a grasp Of the significance of the situation at the
capital. An exchange of ideas will be helpful and is commendable,
hut the READ cure for the present situation will be an improvement in
general business. But the question of quhkened activity in business
generally lies not in the hands Of distant, PARKWAY denies, as the IA
taliStically inclined who would wait with folded hands for the last
yestiges Of the storm 20 pass away seem TO believe. Better business
will come a $ a result Of the desire for it, buttressed by courage and an
intelligent grasp Of the facts as the administration at Washington
seems 10 have. Congress enacted legislation that will provide ample
credits for the agricultural and livestock interests. The memploy-
ment conference may be expected TO assist in providing more employ
ment and when business men begin TO think business is better the
country can expect a general business revival

present congress have done their best to rescue the west and its
