ENGINE Is INVENTED
tBy The Associated Press

London, Feb. 2.-The successful
testing Of a 1000 horse power aero
engine, said to be the most pow
erful known, has opened up claims
by the experts of the possibility of
regular London-New York aerial
service and passage within
twenty-four hours. either direct or
by changing aircraft at the Azores.
It is being recalled that Capt.
John Alcock in 1919, flew from
Newfoundland to Ireland in less
than sixteen hours, using two 375
horse power engines. The engine is
called "The Cub" 1t was ordered
by The Royal air force. 1t is un-
derstood that the Titania, a flying
boat destroyer which is to be used
in long distance patrols, will be
equipped with two Cubs" and
have a range of 1900 miles. For
war time crew will number ten
and for civilian use the craft can
accommodate fifty passengers.

Precious Metals Very "PrcCious."
The majority of the people have

600 crowns for a kilogram (of 2.2
pounds) of scrap gold and dealers
are offering 10000 crowns in an
effort to coax another kilogram
from people who may be boarding
their precious metal. For pure
gold 100000 crowns a kilogram is
offered with no takers. The eX-

has been struggled to other coun-

n warning to 10000 labOrers of
Hungarian origin in the United
States to desist from their reported

that the economic crisis in Amer

PUNISHMENT IN
ANE R|CAN ARMY
TO Be REDUCED
Executive Order, Effective
Today, Cuts Down Court
Martial Sentences Limits
DiShonorabIe Discharges.
(By The Associated Press.)

Washington, Feb. 3.-Reduction
in the number of dishonorable dis
charges from the army and q grad
ing down in the severity of courts
martial sentences are expected by
the judge advocate generals de-
partment to result from an eXecu-
tive order limiting military peace
time punishment which goes into
effect tomorrow. The order follows
wide agitation over coUrtmartia
penalties during the war period.
A memorandum from the presi-
dent attached to. the order directs
that maximum punishment and
dishonorable discharges be imposed
only in aggravated cases. This is
expected to have more effect in re-
ducing penalties, it was stated,
than the actual order, which re-
duces punishments for twenty-One
different offenses under the mill
tary code.
The old maximum of eighteen
months confinement for desertion
by men less than one year in serv
ice has been reduced to one year,
and in cases of more than SIX
months service, from two and one
half years to two years. The period
of absence from which desertion
penalties can be imposed is in
creased from thirty to sixty days
The maximum penalty 1of
fraudulent enlistment has been re-
duced from one years imWison-
ment to six months. The greatest
reduction of maximum confine-
ment is for assault without dead
ly weapons, which was five years,
reduced to one year. The maxi
mum where weapons are usel still
is five years.
The maximum for obtaining un-
der false pretenses money valued
at $50 or more is reduced from
five years to three years.
1.-THE executive order will not
result in a radical reduction of pen
alties," Col. C. A. Kreger, acting
judge advocate, declared. Punish
ments for offenses in the army
have been based since 1914 on "A
consensus of those fixed by differ
ent state laws for similar civil Of
lenses. The executive order re-
duces the maximum penalties for
such offenses as fraudulent enlist
ment, desertion and other pecul-
iarly military in nature, but max
imum penalties seldom have been
awarded for these offenses,
THE presidents memorandum
calling attention to the articles OF
war which provide for a grading
down from maximum penalties
where cases are not ! aggravated
probably will have more effect in
tightening punishments than the
reductions which he actually or
ders. His memorandum, however,
but stresses what is already a part
of military law"
Since 1890 the president has
been authorized by congress to fix
the limit of military punishment
by executive order, and several
such orders have been issued from
time to time by different presi-
dents.

Monmouth, Kans., Feb. S.-John
WillheiIrer's experiment with the
grounding theory of ancient origin
and annual discussion, ended in fail
ure yesterday.
After standing in his observation
tower near the billet which he had
established for a squad of five
groundhogs last fall, Willheimer
received visit from his 14-year-
old son, John Willheimer, Jr. The
boy advised his father faltering-
ly:
I'm sorry dad" young Will
heimer began. 81 didn't mean to
do anything wrong. But there
won't be any ground hogs stick
ing their noses out of that den to-
day. Last fall some fellows were
out here hunting from town and
said they wanted some possums.
Sam Willets and / sacked these
ground hogs and sold them to the
fellows for 50 apiece as possums.'
