Alabanaa Will Be In Rear of Cotton
 Producing States

Montgomery, August 1.-(Special) ) Alabama will produce less cotton than any other state of the cotton belt this year unless conditions be- come better than reports showed them to be during July, according to announcement of F. w. Gist agricul- tural statistician. today. following the publication of the Alabama con dition by the bureau of crop esti- mates. This condition showed the cotton crop in Alabama to be 5S per cent of normal, which indicates to MT. Gist that the total yield this year will be only 440.000 bales.
 The condition for July showed only a slight inprovement over June. The prospective harvest in Alabama is the lowest in the south because of the havoc wrought by the boil wee vii This pest has been operating in every section of the state and weather conditions have been in his favor. The cotton plant is small but Is well developed and had not the boil weevil appeared in such great numbers the crop in Alabama would have been much better.

DASH FOR THE POLE,
 100 MILES AN HOUR
Fuel Is the Chief Problem of Proposed Expedition, With
 Landing Next
By Associated Press

Washington, August 1.-Plans for a transpolar flight in September from Point Barrow, Alaska, to Spitz- bergen and the North Cape, Norway, were announced here today by Ed win Fairfax Naulty of New York. Scientific observation of ocean, air and ice currents will be the chief purpose of the trip, he said, with the hope of establishing the feasibility of the new route for commerce as q secondary consideration.
 t As announced, the start will be made from Seattle with convoy of several planes which will proceed by easy stages up the Alaskan coast to Point Barrow, stopping at Ketchikan, Anchorage and Nome. The arctic flight will be made by one plane which has already been constructed carrying four men, including MT. Naulty. The other three are former service men and 1t was stated their names would be announced soon.
 Originally, it was explained, it was the intention to make the flight next year but reports of warm weather near the arctic circle had led to the advancing of the date.
 Make Flight Early
 We plan to make the flight as early as possible" Mir. Naulty said, and, strange as it may seem, to do 1t in late September. There rare good reasons for the choice of this time. Our flight speed will be about loo miles an hour, to which might be add ed the speed of following air cur rent"
 Fuel was conceded to be the chief problem of the proposed expedition. A supply ample for 50 hours of con tinuous flight will be carried, it was said. and those planning the attempt expressed the belief that this would furnish an excess which would per- init short byflights at the first land ing place on the polar ice and at the pole itself. If no landing places are found it is the intention to make the l50 mile hop without a stop.
 If the first flight is successful. oth- CTS will be undertaken at once, tt was said, with view to settling definitely the location of the mag netic pole and the determination of magnetic polar verticity"

.wALkING. MOTOR CAR

A true, no-skidding motor car. de- scribed with illustrations in the Pop ular Mechanics Magazine. has been evolved by d Czecho- -Slovakian inven- tor, in which the driving members are feet and legs instead of wheels. and which propels itself by a heel and-toe walking action. The four legs of the odd contrivance are at .tached to the throws of a crankshaft in such a way that as it revolves they are first lifted. then carried for ward and lowered, and again carried backward. Another part causes them to rock backward at the top as they descend. which brings the heel of the foot in contact with the ground first. As the shaft continues to turn, the heel gives a backward showing impulse and rises. The toe then comes into contact and imparts a shove. The throws of the erankshaft are so spaced that the eight heels and toes follow each theor with their impulses in rapid succession and at exactly equal intervals.
