was instantly killed Sunday after
noon when her airplane crashed l.,
600 feet to the ground.
Miss Bromwell took off Curtiss
Field in her single scatter Canadian
j. N-4 type plant at 3 o'clock. She
climbed steadily until slightly more
than 1000 feet in the air. Then she
looped the loop once and started on
the second.
AS the machine swung into the
second loop watchers on the field
saw the plane lurch sideways. The
plane, out of control, turned upside
down and dropped at breakneck
speed to the ground.
As the machine turned turtle,
Miss Bromwell was apparently
swung out of her seat although held
to the machine by the usual straps.
The seat cushion, freed by the JOLT
dropped free of the plane. For some
seconds watchers though that Miss
Bromwell had fallen from the ma
chine
1t was pointed out by officials at
the field that the fact Miss Brom-
well swung clear of her seat out or
reach of the control levers probably
was responsible for her death. 1t is
thought that had she been able to
reach the levers she might have been
able to right the plane before reach
ing the ground.
The machine, still upside down,
crashed heavily to the ground near
the Curtiss factory in Garden City.
A watchman from a nearby factory
and two officials of the Curtiss COM
pany who heard the crash, rushed
to the scene but found Miss Brom-
well beyond aid, crushed to death
beneath the wreckage.
Miss Bromwell was % years old,
May Is she established her two
worlds records for women in ayia-
tion. On that day she looped the
loop l99 times and established a wo-
mans speed record of las miles an
hour.
She was living at 166 Lexington
avenue, Manhattan. Her home was
in Cincinnati.

DEMANDS RATE
, c Ut n D "
FARM BUREAU FEDERATION IN
AUGURATES FIGHT.

Chicago, June 8.-Immediate re-
duction of freight rates on the basic
commodities is to be sought by the
American Federation of Farm Bu-
reas, which claims the schedules as
they now exist practically force an
embargo.
j. r. Howard, president of the ma
tional organization, has issued a
statement for the information of the
various farm bureau associations
throughout the country. THE recent
20 per cent reduction in rates from
the Pacific coast, where the haul is
in competition with water transpor-
tation through the Panama canal,
demonstrat tes the railways can prof
itably lower charges applicable to
intermountain, middle west and 9th
er sections" says the Howard letter.
IF decreased rates bring more busi-
ness from the Pacific coast the same
may be true of the middle western
and intermountain states.
Excessively high transportation
rates fro mthe far west and inter
mountain states to eastern points is
choking agriculture. Consumers in
the east are denied great quantities
of excellent fruit and vegetables and
live stock because the high freight
rates make shipping impossible.
THE freight more than equals the
market value of products before
they have travelled very far in the
direction of the people that want
them. Only products with fancy pri-
ces can be sold. The freight rates
should follow the wage reduction OF
IL per cent"

the course of a recent workout, 1.-The
theory of military strategy may be
boiled own to good use in a fight of
this sort. Imagine, for instance, that
Dempsey, my foe, on July 2, is an
opposing army, then remember that
the Jersey City ring will indeed be
the battle ground.

of the foe and the battle ground and
we might say, familiar to us. We
might say that the enemy is danger
Gus, and that it will take something
besides direct assault to defeat him.
So it SINNERS down to a battle of
speed, endurance and strategy.
"Our scheme is to show more clev-
erness than the enemy and to throw
our forces into the battle in such a
manner that he will be able neither
to strike that direct and early blow
that always spells defeat, nor launch
at any time telling attack"
