Washington, ID. g.. Oct. 16.
The Navy Department to-day an
>nounced the invention of a catapult
which is expected to permit the
launching of heavy airplanes from
the decks Of battleships.
The aviation branch of the service
has been working on this contrivance
for several years. Its successful use
will permit each battleship to carry
its own complement Of planes and
increase it's efficiency to remark
able degree.
At present light planes are launched
from turrets of battleships on plat
form supported by the gun muzzles.
Only the lightest planes. however. can
be launched in this manner and a
sudden side gust of wind is apt to
cause a disaster.
The catapult consists Of carriage
moving on tracks. Motive power will be
used to start the plane along this track
at high rate Of speed, so it shall have
attained Its minimum flying speed at the
end of the deck The momentum of the
carriage is stopped by shock absorbers
and suitable brakes.
A complete unit is now ready for in
stallation and will be placed ON bat
tleship for trial. II successful. arrange
ments have been made so that the "cata-
putt can be produced in quantity
AS the airplane cannot land ON the
deck Of the vessel 1t will have TO be pro-
vided with means Of floating on the wa
ter, and will be lifted to the ships deck
by cranes. which will be part of the
equipment. Each ship will have suit
able repair shops. so that 1t will be a
base for as many planes as it may carry.
The number of planes a single vessel
will carry IL the catapult is a success is
not determined. Developments probably
will be made so that a number of them
can be carried, some of them assembled

Elaborate ara ngements have been

comes effective. Code messages have
been made up.
If these messages are received by the

PrOnt by One Strike Mfstake.
This arrangement is the result. it is
said. Of a strike several years ago, that
was ruined by the receipt of messages
on it's eve that the call was off and the
men were to return to work.
Though the strike is against the 12h
per cent. wage cut already announced
by the labor board, the railway execu-
tives' action in announcing that they
would ask for another reduction had a
marked effect in causing the mailing Of
the orders, 1t was said by the brother
hood representatives.
Mr.. Lee made it plain few days ago
that he had used his influence to averr a
wafkout over the 1914 per cent. reduc-
ton. but the action Of the executives
blocked that.
He took the position that III a pledge
was obtained from the executives that
no further reductions would be asked,
the workers could afford to remain on
their jobs.
No such conciliatory attitude was met
with at the recent Chicago conferences,
however. it is understood.
The railway employees say the cheaper
freight rates and consequent reduction
in food costs are being taken out Of

sively. the executives trying to pass all
such freight rate cuts onto their en-

NATIONAL GUARD
To STOP KANSAS
MINE TROUBLES
District Has Been in Furore
Over Activities Of Women
Strike SympathizerS Who
Have Checked Work.

Pittsburg, Kans,, Dec. 15.-Ar-
rival of national guard troops to-
day, the issuing of an order direct
ing all loyal union" men back to
work and steps by authorities for
the prosecution Of women mob
leaders, were today's developments
in the Kansas coal fields. The dis
trict has been in a furore all week
over activities of women strike
sympathizers, who sought to deter
striking miners from working.
The guardsmen tonight had os-
tablished camp in Franklin, Ringo
and Mulberry, mining communities
which have been the scenes of
most serious disorders. No dis
turhances were reported today.
The order calling upon the men
to return to work was issued by
the provisional administration set
up in the district by John l.. Lewis,
president of the International mine
workers union several months ago
when he overturned the adminis-
tration of Alexander Howat.
c. A. Burnett, county attorney,
devoted himself to ascertaining
what steps might be taken to pros
ecute leaders of the demonstra-
tion9. Tonight he was advised by
the office of attorney general
at Topeka that he should begin
Immediately to arrest the leaders.
The proclamation issued by the
Representatives of the international
union commended non union strik-
ers for ''fortitude" and self re-
straint, saying that the march of
the women to the mines this week
was a scheme to entrap the "loyal
members into combat. with the
women. in order that the charge
might then be brought that the
adherents of the international
union had attacked defenseloss
women" 1t assured them that IL
was now safe to return to work
and directed them to DO so to-
morrow
Crowds OF idle miners watched
the troops pitch camp Mt Franklin.
Two or three women shrilled iibes
at the soldiers, who ignored them.
For the most part, however, the
crowd was silent and grave.
At Ringo the crowd of miners
watching the soldiers was in gen
ial mood.
The men who are idle do not ap-
pear to be suffering Every one
looked well fed, including the
children.

CURT|sS GIVEN
PATENT ON IDEA
OF FLYING BOAT
(By The Associated Prrss)

New York, Dec. 15.-The United
States circuit court Of appeals to-
day held that Glenn H. Curtiss was
the first person to invent and oper-
ate flying boat and issued an or
der awarding him the broad patent
for hydro-airplanes
The decision, said by aero
nautic experts to be one of the
most significant developments in
aviation since the Wright patents
were upheld, reversed the lower
courts ruling which awarded the
patent rights to A. s. Janin, an
inventor on Staten Island. 1t con-
stituted the latest development In
a legal battle fought since 1913.
The decision was based on the
fact that Janin had been granted
his patent on the strength of an In
vention not reduced to practice
but that Curtiss, while applying
some months later. had already
demonstrated its operation.
The decision eliminated from
the contest for the fundamental
patent, the French pioneer, Fabre,
who in 1908 constructed an hydro
airplane with which he rose from
the water but which he never sue
ceeded in landing without wreck

Los Angeles, Calf, Dec. 15.--
The trial Of Arthur C. Burch for
alleged murder of ]. Belton Ken
nedy, was adjourned late today un-
til Monday morning, after the pros
ecution had rested, and defense at
torneys announced that they had
several motions to make and wish
ed time to prepare them.
The court granted a request that
the prosecution be granted the priv
ilege of re-opening its case later to
exa mine witness who has been
i'll. This witness, Mr.. Keyes said,
is Mrs James w. Warren, of Santa
Barbara. Mrs. Warren was a pas
senger on the train Burch is al

to Los Angeles last July, about two
weeks before Kennedy was shot.
The last points scored by the
prosecution today was testimony

Richard Parsons, owner of the car,

Recalled this afternoon Parsons
testified that he drove over the
route declared by the prosecution to

return with two trips up a side

offenses or fails to repudiate un-
worthy servants promptly, the acts
of the individuals become the acts
Of the party. These men know that
promises Of reform will be away
below par with the people If the
party fails to act at once.
They also sense the fact that
right now is the time when 1t is
possible to enact a measure giving
the state a proper accounting law
with adequate supervision over the
expenditure of public money. Dur
ing the legislature the schemers
were in a position to defeat the re-
form legislation asked for by the
governor. Now, with public opmicn
arounsed and the public eye focused
it is possible to pass such legisla-
tion as the governor thinks neces-
sary. BY next winter the scandal will
have died down and another legis-
lature can refuse, at the behest OF
the ring, to do anything to prevent
a repetition of the scandal.
None of these men doubts the
need of reform legislation.
