 The two officers stopped in Bisbee long enough to inquire as to whether Associated Press reports carried any word of the missing officers. They then drove on to Nogales.
 Lieutenants Siefert and Richter flew to Nogales several days ago from Rockwell Field, with other army pilots, to join in the search and. since their arrival in Arizona. have flown hundreds of miles in an effort to locate the missing officers.

RUSSIA CONTRIBUTES
ANOTHER SENSATION.

GENOA, April 26.-(By Associat-
ed Press. Soviet Russia contribu-
uted another sensation to the eco
nomic conference Tuesday by send
ing a note to the Polish delegation
demonstrating against Poland's ac-
tion in joining with the Allied pow
ers in protest against a seperate
treaty between Russia and Germany.
Russia claimed that the peace treaty
between herself and Poland covers
all relations between the two coun-
tries, SO that Poland, like Germany,
should not participate in the discus
sion Of Russian affairs, even inti-
mating that Poland, by her present
action in the conference, has abro-
gated the treaty signed at Riga on
March 18, 1921.
Russia has a strong Red army
encamped near the Polish border, and
for that reason, the Russian remon-
strances are regarded by some of the
delegates as equivalent almost to a
threat against Poland.
The experts on the Russian ques-
ton, sitting without the Soviet dele
gates, compared notes on the new
proposals presented by the Russian
delegates at yesterdays session, and
decided to forward their report to
their respective governments. 1t is
expected that when the answers are
received from the various capitol;
the powers will submit counter prop
ositions to the Soviet couched in firm
language, in an endeayor to reach
working basis for an accord.

How Memorial Day Way Born
At Columbus, Ga, April26, 1866

Ut is to a little group of Southern
. women that America owes the
custom of setting one day apart every
spring for honoring the dead. I'm
der different dates American every
where follow the practice.
On April 26, 1866, number of
women in Columbus, Ca, went to
Linwood cemetery where they deco
rated the graves of the soldiers. At
the home of Mrs. John Tyler they
organized a memorial society and
pledged themselves to observe the
ceremony every year on the same
date-the anniversary of General
Joseph E. Johnston's surrender.
Others Spring Up.
Other local memorial societies
sprang up through the South. In
many places the Southern women
impartially decorated the graves of
the unknown Federal troops. News
of this tribute spread through the
North, breathing new life into the
national love and amity which the
war had nearly killed.
General John A. Logan, COM
mander-in-chief of the Grand Army
of the Republic, issued general or
der on May 5, 1868, from his office
in Washington, designating May 80
for the purpose of strewing flowers
or otherwise decorating the graves
of comrades who died in defense Of
their country" Thus the North
Joined the South in the annual ex-
preston of reverence and gratitude
toward its soldier dead.
Dates Vary.
Most of the Southern states recog-
nize April 26 as Confederate Memo
rial Day." while the Northern states
celebrate Memorial Day. on May
80. The Carolinas have set apart
May 10 as their day to observe MEM
orial services. Some authorities
say that Charleston, South Carolina,
held the first memorial day on May
Day, 1865 Louisiana observes June
8, the birthday of jefferson Davis.
Virginia celebrates May 30.
AS the years have passed, the men
and women who lived through the
days of '61 to '65 have turned over
the Memorial Day services to younger
and stronger generations.
National Day
Now movement is on foot to
have a national holiday set apart,
when on certain annual date the
whole country will honor not only
it's soldier dead but all of those
who have passed on. While this
movement is not opposed by those
who are of the generation that
founded Memorial Day." many ex-
pressions are heard from them that
the proposed national day should not
be- permitted to hide the significance
of Memorial Day as it was first con-
ceived.
In many parts of the country,
Memorial Day" has popularity come
to be called. Decoration Day." At
numerous times during the past so
years efforts have been made to
have Decoration Day stricken
from the American vocabulary, but
for some reason the term still lives.

FORT WORTH, Tex, April 90
Rain continued to fall here early to-

more menacing with the continued
rapid rise in the flooded Trinity riv,
er. Fears were expressed that the
death list, now Approximately twen-
ty, would be increased today. The
property damage already has reach
ed several million dollars.
The flood followed a heavy storm
Monday night and Tuesday morning
Nine inches Of rain fell between 10
p. m. and / o'clock a. M, breaking
all previous records. Streams al
ready were at flood stage before the
storm.
The flood was confined chiefly to
the lowlands adjoining the tributaries
of the Trinity river. Marine, Syca-
more, Clearforks and the Trinity riv-
er were swollen, overflowing the
bottoms nearby.
The flood is the most severe in the
history of the city, according to old
time residents. Trinity river stood
at 36.7 feet at noon yesterday and
was still rising. The guage measured
only seven feet. With the break of
the East First street levee late Tues.
day, it was believed the water on be-
ing released would spread out, losing
some of its force.
John G. Mccain, Forth Worth city

broken flooding the lowlands of the
