Flames Sweeping Through Northern
 Minnesota Forest

ST. PAUL, Minn.. Sept. 5-Forest fires of varying extent were reported tonir.lt in seven scattered counties of cer -ral and northern Minnesota, but a gradual recession of the wind caused the hope that an all night fire fight would put most of them under control.
 Fires are reported in sections of Lake, St. Louis, Mile Lacs. Kanabec, Beltrami, Carlton and Aitken coun- ties, with the most serious blaze near McGrath and Aitken county, where nearly 500 Minnesota national guardsmen were being concentrated as fire fighters.
 No loss of life has been reported up to a late hour tonight.
 Only incomplete reports were available from the numbering settle ment of White Pine and the town of Solana. menaced for two days, but these indicated both were un- scathed
 While efforts of state forestry of ficials. were centered on the Aitken county fires today. other fires broke out in sections near Duluth and in several cases gained considerable headway before the calm of evening enabled fighters to control them, at least temporarily

[RepubIiean A. p. Leased Wirel

LONDON, Sept. 5-The swimming exploits of Mrs. Arthur Hamilton. noted English swimmer, are being subjected to the same sort of attacks as those prevalent after pr. Cooks famous polar exploration.
 Since Aug. 20, when she claimed to have nearly swan the English channel after having been in the water 20 hours, other swimmers have been demanding proofs The Eve ming Standard today printed an affi- davft of a Margale business man, A. L. Porter, alleging her exploit of September, 1920. when she claimed to have spent 12 hours in the water in bad weather and to have gone within nine miles of France was a fraud. He asserts he lent Mrs. Hamilton 8 motor boat to accompany her: that she left the water and spent the night in the boat in Margale harbor with MT. Porter and other members of the party.
 Mrs. Hamilton was accompanied on her last trip by a tug occupied by French sailors. Her rivals are now demanding a chart of her trip. of which the tug captain says there is none.
 Mrs. Hamilton tonight repudiated the statements of Mir. Porter. She characterized his accusation of fraud as vile libel"

CoreIessness
 Caused 547,5OO Fires Last Year

Every time the minute hand passes a mark on the clock face, at least one more fire has broken but somewhere in the United States.
 There are LAO minutes in each day, and an average of 1500 fires oc- cur in that time-a little more than one every minute.
 The loss from these fires averages s2.1O for every American man, wom- an and child. There is an enormous indirect loss impossible to estimate accurately. These fires, nearly all caused by carelessness, burn up wealth amounting to more than the combined value of all the gold. silver and copper mines and oil wells in the country.
 Truly useful patriotism lies in sav- ing this money for your country and yourself. The National Board of Fire Underwriters has prepared an illus trated booklet, Safeguarding the Home Against Fire" telling in detail the causes of fires and how they may be prevented and fought.

Sim Fein Chiefs Deny DaiI Eireann
 To Coerce Ulster
TRepubIican A. P. Leased Wire1


 DUBLIN, Sept. 5-Attention of the Sim Fein publicity department to- day was called to the address at Armagh yesterday of Owen ODuffy, chief Sim Fain liaison officer in Ulster in which he was quoted as advocating coercion of Ulster. It was asked whether O'Duffy's speech had the approval of the Dail Eireann. Eamonn De La Valera, republican leader, and other Sim F'ein chiefs were consulted, after which the fol- lowin statement was issued:
 "The Dali Eireann does not pro- pose to use coercion against north esat Ulster any more than it pro- poses to submit to coercion itself. MT. O'Duffy's statement refers to the defense of the national minority at Belfast, who last week were wan tonly shot down by organized and directed Orange gangs, which were permitted to act for two days with out interference from the British. Coercion will not be paplied by us to minority but it is not proposed that that minority should be per mitted to use firearms with impunity against our people resident among them"

NAVY AIR. PROGRAM. CALLS F()R
 b|G' FUND
Ten Billion Dollars Will Be Spent In Development Of Naval Air Force In Next Ten Years
 PLANES ESSENTIAL Bombing Tests Demonstrate Need of Efficient Air Force and R a d i C a l Change In Battleships
By Herbert Corey

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5-Eighty- four cents out of each dollar will not be enough hereafter. Ninety at least must hc taken. Or else we cannot go to war at all.
 This is what the report of the Pershing Bombing Test Board means when it is boiled down and skinned riose. General MitchelIs contention that the airplane is a major weapon has been confirmed. Precautions must be taken against it. and the navy must be provided with it. That rosts more money. Today's battle ships must be reconstructed. Airship carriers must be built. In a recent hearing Admiral Fiske stated:
 If we do not provide for airplane carving ships, we will have navy that will go to war only to get licked
 Planes Absolutely Essential
 The Pershing board confirms this gruesome prediction of Admiral Fiske's. when it declares that air plane carriers are absolutely essen tfai to the highest efficiency of the fleet" The funny part. as George Ade used to say. is that according to the United States Bureau of Effi- riency we are now paying S4 cents in taxation against the cost of past, -DIt<tllt anu ldtQTe as tOit PdA Ot with 16 cents for all the other costs of gox ernment. If the airpfane en- thusiasts are right-and the Pershing Bombing Test Board is composed of high officers of the army and navy then that s4 cents must be at once swelled to the higher figure. 90, perhaps, or 91. No one knows just what Gn absolutely efficient air force. provided with carriers and dirigibles and semi-rigjds and hangers and Mickey knows what would cost. But in the latest house bearings on the proposition to establish an united air service Representative Harry E. Hull of Iowa made this statement:
 ~The report of the board of general officers made up of General Haas, General Snow, and others. on the air service contemplates an appropria- tion of $500, ,O00. .000 year for 10 years. A total of 10000, ,000,0 ,00."
 Meaning to the Taxpayer
 This was for the moment doubted by others present. They seemed to think that such a demand from as pacific a country as the United States

Following the dfrec- tion of the sounds, he said, he discov- cred the wrecked machine, the nose of which had buried itself in the ground. The bodies of three victims. Hughes said, were suspended, head down, in mid air, held in their cockpits by footstraps. The fourth body, discov- cred hours later, was caught in the wreckage. The injured man had crawled several yards from the wreckage and was found face down ward. Hughes partially revived Cor poral Hazelton by giving him drink of water.

 ST. LOUIS, Mo, Sept. 5-Economfc difficulties and industrial problems can be and will be solved in only one way and that is by finding exact justice and enforcing it. Postmaster General Hays declared tonight in Labor day address before the Na- tional Association of Letter Carriers convention.
 Every problem Is soluble" he as- serted. Tt is simply matter of a square deal"
 Live. and let live is not enough" he continued. We must live and help live in America. The labor of the country constitutes it's strength and it's wealth. It is entitled to and must receive fair representa- tion in all councils of the nation. The bet fer that labor is conditioned, the higher it's reward and the wider its opportunities, and the greater its comforts and refinements. the better will he our civilization and the safer will be our government, the more sacred our homes.
 '.For myself, l am convinced that the true solution of the questions arising between labor and capital lies in awakened public conscious ness. in a thorough medication of the spirit ol lHe ldiA e'ctNAAiAs . then in organization and wise. hu- mane leadership and in the establish ment of boards of conciliation or ar bitration which are free rom the nolluting touch of selfish interests of political demagOgues in which the interests concerned may freely and confidently apply.
 q believe. too, that we must de- velop a reasonable method for non sst and efficient labor to have an cnportunity to acquire an interest m rhe business to which it is to give ,fs hest efforts.
