Mrs. Fournier's injuries were found to
consist of dislocated shoulder and
elbow, and she was brought to the st.
Johnsbury hospital to have the full ex-
tent Of her injuries determined. Her

SEA-PLANE CATAPULT
SUCCESSFULLY TESTED

WASHINGTON, Aug, 25.-(Capital
News Service).-A sea- plane has been
launched by the new navy catapult
device from the battleship Maryland
off West Ninety-siXth street, New
York
The carriage of the catapault de-
vice attains a speed of between so and
60 miles din so feet. When the plane
reaches the end of the catapault rails
it has sufficient velocity to rise at
once in the air.
The improvement in the catapault
is that the running carriage does not
drop off into the water, but despite
its speed of close to a mile a minute
the ship. ~
Aviation experts in Washington, the
cradle of government flying, recall
with interest the first Wright Broth
ers experiments in 1908, at Fort Mey-
er, Va, across the Potomac from
Washington. AT this time the Wright
biplane was helped into the air by a
catapault, in which a falling weight
pulled rope which jerked the little
flying machine into the atmosphere.
1t is considered odd that in view of
the difficulty experienced in persuad-
ing the Wrights that wheeled fusilages
must be designed in order that air.
planes by Independent of launching
devices. the most modern develop
ments in aviation should return to the
original idea. Long before Wright,
DR.. S. P. Langley, then chief of the
Smithsonian Institution, designed a
flying machine which also was launch
ed by catapault.
The new navy device makes sea-
planning, to a large extent independ-
ent of the weather, since planes may
rise regardless of waves, although
completely protected landing device
for the high seas has yet to be per-
fected.

German Baby Crop

Dollar RisesA

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
BERLIN, Aug. 25.-U. PD-The
birthrate in Germany rises and falls
in direct ratio to the fall and rise in
the value of the American dollar.
Figures gathered by the govern
ment from cities of 1900 population
and over show that the principal fac
tors, aside from the fluctuation of the
dollar, affecting the warerinG birth
rate line are eXorbitant wholesale
prices and the high cost of living in
general.
The figures, tabulated by months
show that the rate of birth in Ger
many during 1921 was highest in Feb
duary. From March until June, 1921
aecided downward trend set in. This
ceased abruptly in July. During the
corresponding propagating months, ir
is pointed out, the dollar stood at a
comparatively high level in exchange
value. The. minimum birthrate, act
ually expected in November came In
October January was also n low
birthrate month. In February and
March, 1921, the value of the dollar
was much more acceptable from the
German viewpoint and correspond
ing increase in birthrate was recorded
in November and December
Medical authorities in the govern
paratively low value of the mark will
do much to curtail the birthrate in the
spring and summer of 1923.

Attorneys Seek

fight to obtain release of John d.
Dodge, young Detroit millionaire,
from the Detroit house of correc-
tion, where he was sent yesterday
for a five-day term by Judge C. L.,
Bartlett on speeding charge, was
begun by his counsel this morn
ing. AS young Dodge was being
classified for his term in the work
house writ of habeas corpus was
served this morning upon the su-
perintendent of the institution,
returnable this morning.
Dodge spent his first night of
imprisonment on a cot in the Jail
corridor, having summoned ply
sician, who declared he was suf-
fered from fever, induced by
nervousness and excitement.
This morning he was assigned
to work with other prisoners.
Three "jobs" were held out as
possibilities, washing dishes, work
ing on the coal pile or taking care
of the prison furnace. The writ
of habeas corpus came as the "job"
was about to be selected.

At the morning session 1t was
brought out that trucks which
were engaged in occasional trips
with picnic parties and on similar
trips involving the transportation
of passengers must take out sep
arate indemnity insurance to COW
er this feature. Such a require
ment. 1t was protested by truck
owners, was prohibitive and
would mean that trucks would
hereafter be withdrawn from this
class of business, which, 1t was
contended, was really only an ac-
commodation to the passengers at
the best without any profit to the
truck owners.

surance. Interinsurance compan-
les, Mcguire declared, were writ
ing indemnity insurance and were
doing it at rate of premium 25
per cent under the old line com
panies.
A. ID. Leedy, representing stage
and truck operators of Grant
county, and Walter E. Meacham,
secretary of the Baker Chamber
of Commerce, Joined in a plea for
a readjustment of the insurance
requirements under the new law
which would give the small opera
tor of the sparsely settled sections
of the state chance to continue
in business. Present insurance re-
quirements, they contended, were
exhorbitant and prohibitive. Their
enforcement, Leedy d clared,
would wipe every for-hire car out
of existence in Grant county.
Meacham suggested revision
of the insurance requirements to
make provision for seven-passen-
ger cars with lower indemnity
rates and chance to post person
al bonds without the necessity of
paying tribute to the insurance
companies. He would also exempt
from the insurance requirements
truck lines which do not operate
in competition with the railroads.
An intimation by Gus New
berry, Medford attorney, that the
new law was designed in part at
least for the benefit of the South
ern Pacific railroad, brought a
protest from Chairman Williams
of the public service commission,
who declared that the commission
must be guided by the law as 1t
was handed to them for admins

What S New

of sugar will take effect in some
stores Monday. This increase will
bring the price per sack up to
$500 which will probably be ad-
vanced to seven dollars before

Arkansas sweet potatoes were
offered at a special price today of
five pounds for a quarter. This is
extremely reasonable for the mar
ket is three pounds at that price.
The special price is not general.
Bakers flour dropped 40 cents
on the barrel yesterday, but the
price of family flour remained
unchanged. The fluctuations In
bakers flour seldom affects the
price to the housewife. The drop
will not affect the price of bread.
