 The plaintiff was represented by Attorney O. Gibson. of Tombstone. and the defendants by David Ben shimol, of Douglas.
 According to the evidence, the de fendants purchased the homestead ranch from Arthur Landers, whose wife subsequently died. The heirs instituted suit to recover the dece- dents share of the equity.
 Defense attorneys maintained that the United States government home stealing laws did not recognize the equity of a wife in a homestead. This gave rise to a point of law which Judge Sames has taken under advise ment, and will render his decision at later date

Gov. Harvey. Columbia. s. G.
Dear Gov. Harvey: Allow me to
express my approval of the stand
YOU have taken in the case Of Dr.
r. Lyman Love of Charleston, and
of YOUR advice to him to secure a
license to practice Chiropractic.
You may possibly recall that
last war when / went before the
State Medical Board for examine
ton. was the only Palmer School
graduate in the state that had
done so.-and as consequence. be-
came the. object Of severe criticism
by some OF the. other members, DE-
Love among the number.
That we should have :: Chiro-
praetic examining board in South
Carolina like they have in other
states. is agreed upon by all who
haze given the matter sufficient
study. but how to get that is
where the difference. of opinion
comes in.
1t was my idea to comply with
the present law. and get Chiroprac-
tic we'll known in the state, then
work for a better law.
Your stand in the matter. and
the recent Developments in the
state go to substantiate that po-
sition.
thank you. and beg to remain,
Very sincerely.

American Aviator
Sets the Pace
Lieut.. Maugllan Establishes
New Record For Speed
in Air

Mt. Clemens. Mich. Oct. 1T (EF
the Associated Press
at a greater speed than any human
being ever before attained, Lieut..
E. L. Vaughan, army pilot. today
set a new worlds airp!ane speed
record by. covering u one kilometer
course at the rate OF e48.5 miles an
hour.
|. The record was made during Off
tela1 government tests Of speed
planes that participated in the ma
tional air races at Seifridge field
last week and was electrically TIM
ed by officers from McCoek field.
Aeronautical engineers and army
land navy! officers who Witnessed the
flight were astounded. The DEM
onstration, they declared, proved
|! that there was no limit to the
speed that might be attained in the
air.
Lieutenant Maughan made the
record breaking fight in the same
plane with which he won the
Pulitzer trophy race Saturday. The
machine is a Curtiss army bipfane,
powered with Gurtiss ,409 horse
power engine.
After setting the new record,
lJ5ieutenant Maughan continued his
fight to show that the tremepd Gus
pace could be maintained. On four
laps he was timed at the rate Of
232. % miles an ,1:oar, and his :sav-
erage for eight laps wses 22s miles
an hour. - .@s.. -..es.=9
Examination OF the machine af-
tier the fight disclosed that it was
in perfect condition and that noti-
ing in the nature OF. a trick fight
figured in the performance.
Later Lieutenant Vaughan add
ed to the astenishment OF pilots and
officials on the field by flying ap-
sproHmateiy one mile with, the ma
chine on its side. The feat in real.
it: was a Mgtte without the ard
OF wings.
In other trials during the day
the speed record for moneplanes
was shattered by one navy and
three array laeliines.
Lieutenant Barksdale covered the
lone kiiometer course at the rare
OF 1sl miles. an hour and Lieuten-
ant Whitehead made ls5. They
drove Looming Packard planes.
ECaptain Hunter in Thomas
Morse was. timed at ia miles an
hour and Lieutenant Galloway. in
the navy's Bee-Line racer, made
III miles an hour.
The: trials are to be continued
most of this week and
will determine to a large extent
the type of machines to be ~devei-
..eped for the army and navy.
/ Lieutenant 1faughan's record was
said to have made it virtually GER
tain tho army would select the
-curtiss army biplane as the stand
ard pursuit type.
The tests may also have a
bearing. ON the decision as to
whether the government shall build

Learned Hand today reserved de-
cision on applications by American
and foreign owned steamship lines
TO mako permanent the stay re
s.raining government officials from
putting into effect the Daugherty
ruling that vessels must not carry
hauor inside the three mile line,
even under seal. when touching at
American ports.
I Meanwhile. Judge Hand extend
ed the stay he had granted last
week until he should reach a de-
cision. This decision, he indieat-
ed. probably would be rendered
before October 21.S the latest date
on which the Daugherty ruling has
been ordered into effect. ENten-
SION Of tic stay affects both Amer
ican and foreign lines.
Judge Hand made. known his in
tention after listening to all day
arguments presented by a large
array of counsel representing ten
Of the most important trans-Atlan-
tie steamship companies, and a
number of attorneys representing
Secretary of the Treasury Mellon
and tlse federal prohibition en-
1forcenent Headquarters. Tile con-
tinuation OF the stay. he made clear
would hold, even If he failed to
announce his decision OF the i'm
.ianction before October 81.
The foreign lines affected by the
extension of the temporary stay
were the Cunard. Anchor. White
Star, French, International Nav
igation, Holland America. Scandi-
navian-American and Royal Mail
Steam Packet. The American
Line of the International Mer-
camille Marine and the United
American Line.
The stays were original in the
cases Of the Holiand-Anerica.

Mail Lines, which though migrant
ed the original stay. declared
through counsel that they had
eases identical with those; Of the
|other foreign lines,
|: Judge Hand announced he would
receive briefs and papers tenlor-
row and that he would attempt
10 make a decision as soon as pos
sible so that the case might quickly
be brought TO the United States
supreme court. .fhe stay. he said.
would be valid until the entry
OF the order. on the motion for a
Judgment.
United States District Attorney
Hayward objected to motion
made by counsel of the foreign
lines for granting of a tempor-
ary stay until decision by the
supreme court In denying the
contention of his opponents that
serious damage to- the steamship
lines would be caused by the en-
.frcenlent OF the Daugherty ruling
before final supreme decision,
he said the governments had been
very courteous III the matter and
had gone to great lengths to
avoid embarrassment to the ship
owners.
He also declared that he dia not
know the intentions of the treas
ury department which, he repre-
sented and of the government and
accordingly could not but object to
the motion for an indefinite stay.
