| Governor FiarQW1ck stated MOI

men who kidnapped r. F. Mills, Of
Macon, last Saturday night and

the guilty persons" said the COVER
nor. "Outrages of this kind cannot
be tolerated. propose to use ire full
power and authority given me by
cases. I have directed Attorney
General Napier to assist in the prose
cution in this case if arrests are
made"
Mills was quoted in Macon dis
patches as saying that this attack
was the second committed on him
in the past few weeks, that he wrote
the governor for protection after the
first attack, and that man repre-
senting himself to be an emissary Of
the governor came to Macon to see
him and get the details of the first
attack.
Regarding these statements, Gov
ernor Hardwick said he had received
no letterfrom Mills and sent no ennis

MILLS MAY APPEAR
BEFORE GRAND JURY
MACON, Ca, Nov. 6-There is a
probability that r. F. Mills, who On
Saturday night was kidnapped and
severely beaten by several men, will
appear before the Bibb county grand
jury, which convenes today, and tell
of the attack, the second within a
year, upon him. In the meantime "A
reward of $500 has been offered by a
relative of the alleged victim for the
arrest of members of the party.
Mills is still under the care of ply
sicians who attended him shortly
after his arriva lat his home early
Sunday morning with blood oozing
from several scalp wounds on the

beaten with clubs after he had been
kidnapped from his automobile in the
presence of his two children and car

Business jealousy is responsible for
what he termed his persecution"
declared Mills. He says he was kid
naped a year ago and carried to a
| cemetery, where he was horse
whipped in the presence Of his
twelve-year.old son, and the latter,
according to his mother, has not re-
covered yet from the horror of the
scene.
Mills claimed that members of the
kidnapping party threatened to hang
him, but after beating him on the

$4,000 "vAGS" IN NEW YORK
Very Few Former Service Men Are
AmongN Migratory Army Of the
Homeless.

New YOrk.-There are, according to
conservative estimate, $4,000 home
less men in this city today. Since
1914 the average age Of these men
has dropped from forty-seven to thirty
two, and many of them are mere
youths. Roy Z. Gates, member~o of the
national committee on yagrancy,
stamped as incorrect report pub
lished in San Francisco newspaper
under a New York date line, that New
YOrk's homeless are drifting to the
Pacific coast because they have been
ordered by the police to find jobs or
get out of town.
If there has been an influx of home
less men and panhandlers TO the cit
les of the west coast it is a sign only
of q condition which is general, ssays
Mr.. Gates.
aFew eX-Service men are among the
migratory army of the homeless.
Mr. Gates said that the lowest type
of destitute man is the one who begs
aims on the street, and that the prac-
tice of giving him money is bad one,
since it encourages him. The better
plan is to direct him to some reputa-
Bile charitable agency which can help
him.

Negroes Born IN North Mi.
crate to the South

WashingtOn.-The total number Of
negroes reported as born In Southern
states and living in the North and West
had Increased nom 44O.o34 in 1910 to
7SO.194 in 1920. the census bureau
announced in a special report ON negro
migration based on returns of the last
census. The southern boundaries of
New Jersey. Pennsylvania. Ohio.
Indiana. Illinois. Missouri and Kansas
were taken as the dividing line between
the North and South for the purposes
Of the report.
Of the 1881 300 negroes enumerated
in the last census. there were $3.50
for whom no state of birth was re-
ported. The 7SO.794 southern born
negroes shown to have migrated to the
North or West constituted 81 per cent
Of the total Of 1900. 943 negroes born
in the southern section. The percent
age of this migration for the pre-
ceding decade was not shown.
Against this migration from the
South to the North and West. of the
total of 741,791 reported in the last
census as born in states of the latter
region. 1929, or GA per cent, were liv.
Ing in the South. Thus the proportion
of sOuthern-bOrn negroes who migrated
to the North or West, according to
the report. was only about one-fOurth
larger than the proportion of those
born in the latter region who migrated
to the South.
"While it is impossible to calculate
exactly the extent of negro migration
from the South during the decade
ended with 1920" the census report
said. ''the available data indicates that
approximately 100000, or somewhat
more than half of the 1873, 81 survivors
of the net negro migration from the
South to the North and West prior
to January l, 1920. left the South SUBJ
seQuently to April Is, 1907
although migration to the North
and West has not taken place among
the far southern negroes to the same
extent relatively to their total num-
bers. as among the negroes in the
northern part Of the South, there was.
nevertheless, pronounced increase in
such migration from the Far South dur
ing the past decade" ~ Pa
As examples Of this gain, the report
cited increases in the migration of
negroes from southern states to Penn
sylvania from 1910 to 1920 as follows
Georgia, 1878 to 1915; South Caro-
lima, 2,115 to 1924; Florida, 1913 to g.

BLUE GRASS SEED GROWERS
ORGANIZE

Initial steps toward formation of
a cooperative marketing association
of the blue grass producers of Ken
lucky were taken at a mass meeting
of the growers, held in the court
house at Winchester, last week
at which time committee was
appointed to draft a contract suita-
BILE for the use Of the proposed or
ganixation, this committee to report
back to the growers at meeting to
be called at some date in the near
future
About thirty-five growers, repre-
senting the blue grass seed produc-
ers of six Central Kentucky coun-
ties, were present at the session
The personnel of the committee
named at the meeting follows: Sam
uel Clay, William and Warren Rog-
ers, Bourbon county; Edward Prev
lit and Chenault Woodford, Mont
gomery: Rhodes Estill, B. e. Allen
and Dave Prewitt, Fayette; Lewis
Neal and T. J. Prewitt, Madison;
Ben Goff, Joe Lindsay and T. w
Brock, Clerk.
This committe is expected to get
in touch with the Bureau of Mar
ket. Of the Kentucky Experiment
Station, and secure data relative tc
the possibilities of the plan, and
also to confer with Aaron Sapiro
California marketing expert, with
regard to the compilation and ar
lengement of the contracts.
The main aim of the proposed as
ISOLATION, according to local growers
who are interested, will be an effort
to stabilize the market. 1t is point
ed out that as the crop Of blue gras:
is one that is subject to a degree OF
variance insofar as production l.
concerned and that the great need
of the producer is for an organiza.
ton that will bring the stabliza-
tion of the market.

Developed in Ten Years.

THE catapult OF this particular
type is new, but the elements are the
result Of navy catapult development
initiated In 1911 by Capt. Washington
i. Chambers, at that time in charge
of naval aviation experiments. The
flrst flight was made Nov. 10. 1912.
by Commander, then Lieutenant. r..
G. Ellyson in a Curtiss seaptane from
q catapult.
The matter was resumed in 1915
when the development of naval sea
planes had proceeded to such a point
that ii was clear to the Navy it would
be desirable to take aircraft to sea.
A new design of catapult, based on
experience with the first one, was in
stalled Oh the stern of the armOred
full flights were made. The North
Carolina installation proved so re-
liable that similar catapults were in
stalled on the armOred cruisers Sc
attic and Huntington, and during
the early winter of 1916 successful
flights were made from these cruisers.
AT the time the United States en-
tered the war the principal naval eff
fort was anti-submarine i'm its object
and the convoy of shipping Aircraft
were not needed aboard these cruisers
for this purpose. and the catapuits
were removed After the armistice,
the catapult problem was again taken
up and catapult, similar to the
North Carolina design, which had
been in use at Pensacola for training
aviators while mounted on coal
barge, was brought to Washington and
further tests and investigations made.
T. .srhe old catapults, such as were
used on the North Carolina, consisted
of a track along which a carriage
was propelled by compressed air
cylinder The airpiane was mounted
on this carriage, and as the carriage
speeded I'D it released the airplane at
the end of its run, allowing it TO ny
into the air. The track for this cat
apult was mounted along the center
line of the snip, and since it was neces-
sary to launch the airplane direct into
the relative wind, ii was necessary
for the ship to set herself Oh such
course that the wind blew in the direc-
fion of the catapult track.
This ntaneuver. while entirel!
feasible. necessitated the ship turning
out of formation. or heading upon
some course which might prove, very
Instantaneous. The turntabde cat
apnlt obriates this and is relatively

All Metal Gonoplane in Favor.

"This all-metal mOnOplane continues
to gain favor, and it's performance is
characterized by q remarkable low
gas consumption, due, of course
largely to its excellent motor. There
has been q remarkable revival of in
terest i'm the mOnoplane as good type
for moderate speeds. The thickness
of wing which is necessitated by inter
nal bracing is unsuitable for the high
est speeds. Leconte used biplane
with the characteristic thin wings of
the modern racing machine.
Multiple engines, so coupled up as
to be capable Of being run independ-
emily, are growing in favor. Martin
and Gallaudet, among American de-
signers, have secured excellent results
with this arrangement. Regular air
plane passenger service, running on
schedule, has made progress, slow, it
may be, but encouraging.
Abroad, the French and British are
still maintaining their LOndOn-Paris

been running consistently, and new
routes have been established during

ENORMOUSLY SIMPLE DEVICE

Without Regard to Direction

pressed Air Is Used.

Washington.-The navy has been
launching airpianes from the decks
OF batteships for several years, but
it has hitherto been necessary always
to maneuver the battleship so as to
launch the airplane directly into the
wind. This manifestly, would be i'm
possible in actual battle. So the Uni
ted States Navy department has just
developed system whereby an air.
plane may be catapulted into the wind
without regard to the direction the
battleship is headed.
The Scientific American gives q
complete description of this ingeniously
simple device, which is now being
shown at the Philadelphia navy yard.
Following Is the article, slightly con-
densed:
ITO permit the launching of air.
planes from battleship or other war
vessel the catapult has been resorted
to, and a special type of catapult has
been developed which has been des-
ignated turntable catapult because
the catapult mechanism proper is
mounted on a turntable so that it can
be pointed into the wind when launch
ing plane.
Zone catapult of this type could be
installed on every battleship and
could LAUNCH when needed a fighting
airplane, SO that a feet Of battleships
would be able on the approach Of hos
tile bombing airplanes to send into
the air instantly large number of
fighting planes to shoot them down
before the bombing attack could be
developed. This is the real answer
to the threat of the bombing plane,
which was demonstrated In so spec
tacular manner by the recent bomb
ing from the air of the ex-German
warships.
I'm the bombing attacks Of these
ex-German warships 1t was shown
that bombs dropped from the air
could do material damage to war
ships which did not defend them
selves. Obviously a warship can de-
fend itself By anti-aircraft gunfre,
but never by attack In the air. The
weapons of Offense and defense in
the history OF naval warfare have
always developed step by step and
the development Of the heavy bomb
ing airplane is being met by this de-
velOpment of catapult which, will
shoot fast combat planes from the
decks of battleships into the air to
repel bombing attacks.

and Normal avenue, deal has also
been made for the Frank White resi-
dence next to it. The school pur-

the entire half block giving the school
some valuable land for future build

the new gymnasium, for which the
legislature made an appropriation at
the last session will be erected on this
land. The state and school needed
this property as the institution has
been crowded for space for future
buildings and expansion and with a

now purchased the State Teachers
College will have a chance to put any
new building where they will show off
to better advantage and at the same
time keep them all together close to
the main building.
