NEW YORK. Sept 2.-Tommy Nc
Ginty, Cleveland boxing promoter,
surely took flyer In order to hook
Jawn Patrick Kllbane and Danny
Frush. With his partner, Sammy
Deutch, McGinty guaranteed Kilbane
$65 900 to risk his featherwelght title.
Frush is to get $25O0 and is glad his
bit Is that big, because most of all he
wants the chance to win the crown
that Kilbane has held for so many
years.
McGinty blew into New York the
other day on business and while here
discussed the bout.
Il think 1t is going to be the biggest
attraction the middle west has had in
a flstic way sincb the willard -Demp-
sey scrap" said Tommy. "Ill admit
that the guarantee Is large. but il
Deutch and had not figured the bout
worth 1t we certainly would not have
hung up such purse. 1t was report
ed that we guaranteed Kilbane $60,-
900. Well. we had to raise the ante
$4,000 more before he would finally
sign. The fact that the bout will be
over the twelye-round route to ref

are standing. A no-decision bout was

FRENCH OPEN POTASH MINES

been installed, the extraction shafts
repaired and refining plants put in

JAPS LOSE MILLION
Census Of 1920 Shows Bio De-
crease in Population.
Practically Every City Shows = Biz
Drop as Compared With lncor-
rect Figures Of 1918.

Tokyo. Population figures that
prove the population of the ,Japanese
empire over 100000 less than it was
estimated in 1918 were given out by
the bureau of national power inyesti-
cation here recently. Practically ev.
cry city shows a large decrease as
compared with the incorrect figures
of 1918, Tokyo alone being 10000 less
than it's semi-oficial figures indicated.
The population of the empire. ac-
cording to these figures, which are the
result OF months of labor on the part
Of the bureau officials, is 1905 80:
that OF Japan proper, exclusive of
Korea, Formosa and S~aghalien, So
961,14O.
Both of these figures are less by
more than q million than the figures
given in 1918. The population of the
empire, then estimated from a compi-
lation Of old registers, was given at
1921, 856, or 1,235.346 more than the
census of 1920 gives. The decrease
for the Japanese empire, therefore. is
1.6 per cent.
Thus Japan, by it's first modern
census. for the 1920 figures are the
first made along modern lines of in
vestigation. fails to bear out it's story
Of eve increasing population which is
literally driving the nation to seek
new lands in Asia and send it's i'm
migrants out into the far corners Of
the earth.
Since the fall of the TOkugawas 1t
has been customary to compile all CEN
records from old registers and it
has been known for some time that
Implications were not only apt to
creep in, but that they had come to
be the customary thing.
According to the new figures, there
are 12S,S50 more males than females
in Japan proper. The total number
Of families in Japan proper is 11,222,-
O53.
Tokyo, Osaka and Kobe rank the
first three cities of the empire in the
list of statistics.

FLYER IN JAIL
Barcelona Engineer Claims His
Machine Will Rise Vertically
From the Ground.
CAN DIP IN ANY DIRECTION
French Government Is interested in
Invention and Will Send Technical
Commission to Barcelona to
Witness the Trials.

London.-PariS, according to the
London Daily Telegraph correspond
n is talking about a new flying ma
chine and the romantic story of it's
invention.
1t is called the ~"heiicoptere," and
the inventor, NJ. Pateras-Pescara, a
Barcelona engineer, made his discov-
cry Ia the Sante prison at two o'clock
in the morning. 1t is claimed for this
new flying vehicle. in which the
French government is interested, for
1t will send a technical mission to Bar
ceiona to witness the trials, that pas
sengers can descend from the air with
the same comfort as though they we're
sitting in armchairs.
How II Works.
The Invention consists Of an axle
liked to a motor which is placed in
the vehicle. The axle sets in motion
sets of propellers, one set turning one
way, one another. The vehicle rises
vertically from the ground it can dip
In every direction, remain immobile In
space, and decend like an airplane
with engine stopped.
M. PateraS-Pescara. a natiOnalized
Argentine, who married an Austrian
princess, had to leave Italy when that
country entered the war. He came
to France, where he was employed in
the ministry of inventions. In 1916
he was at work on a bombing machine
which was intended to fly between
Paris and Berlin with a cargo of ex-
plosives at a speed of 1870 miles an
hour. He had had trouble with the
dipl0matists and was watched by the
international police.
Arrested. he was taken to the Saute
prison, and it was in his cell on De-
cember Is. 1916. that he solved the
problem of the "helicoptere." The ex-
pulsion proceedings against him were
dropped, and after his release he APP
piled himself to his invention.
Proves Successful.
In August, 1919, a mission from the
French air department went to Bar
celona to witness the trials Of his
pdIdCiuIc HcilCcRltiC di1O as q "
suit of its report a contract was
with the inventor. Compelled
to reside outside France. M. Pescara
built a definite model of his machine
at Barcelona. 1t was tried recently,
and it is said that the propellers
worked admirably.
With reference to this claim Of the
Barcelona inventor, it may be pointed
out that there is nothing whatever
about the idea Of a 'helicoptere,"
/. e., a machine capable of rising from
the ground by the action of horizon
propellers. The plan, in
fact, is one of the oldest in the history
Of aeronautical theory and expert
ment, and has been put forward more
than once during the past quarter Of
1 century. Whether NJ. Pescara has
succeeded in surrounding the difficult
ties heretofore encountered remains
TO be seen.

FIND LATENT TALENT
Psychology Used in Tests at
University of Wisconsin.
Material for Likely Journalists
and Machinists.

Madison, Wis.-Psychological tests
Of ability for machine shop work evil
denced by freshmen in the college Of
engineering are being undertaken by
the department OF psychology at the
University of Wisconsin.
The results of the tests are being
computed by students in vocational
psychology as a part of their work in
preparing to become employment
managers.
Another set of tests designed to
gauge journalistic ability is to be Civ
en- to freshmen in the course of jour
nalism in conjunction with schools of
journalism in other universities. These
tests will be given for several success
Siye years TO determine whether it is
possible TO discover latent newspaper
talent through psychology tests.
The system of giving psychological
tests, instead of regular entrance TX
aminafions TO students who wish to
enter a university, has been tried In
several universities. The idea is that
a student who has a good mind, but
has insufficient or inferior high school
training, may be advised as to the
lines of study for which he is best
fitted.
In this regard, the University of
Wisconsin is giving more specific tests
than most other universities. BY CIV
ing a dozen or more tests for the same
results, the psychologists at the uni
versity are determining which tests
are best. In a small series Of tests
already conducted, however, the re-
suits do not correspond well with the
tested.
