FLIGHT Of SULTAN
 GIFTS CONDEMNATION
Minority Of Indian ROhammedanS
 DlsapproVe Of Step

Delhi, India, Jan, so,=Indian Mo,
 hamnedahs are divided into two fac iiens in their attitude toward inc sit
 uaiiOn in the Near East, The nation ailsts, who constitute the larger ele,
 ment, have approved of the change in the sulianate and have indicated their loyalty t9 the new sultan of Tur- key, There is a minority, however who give no support to the Turkish nationalist, These are mostly Mo- hammedana who have held them selves aloof from the n0nreoonerati0n movement in India.
 The conservative section has dis approved of the change on the ground that it will impair the prestige ai Turkey in the eyes of the Moslem world This action, they say. is en- tlrely opposed to the very precedent which the AngoFa government pre- tended to follow, for even during the earliest period of Moslem history the elected kahlifs were heads of both the state and the church. Though The news Of the threatened prosecution of the sultan and his flight from Con stantinople has not yet had time to reach all Indian Mohammedans many have expressed mlsgiyinfs ns to the future intentions Of the Angora na- uonal assembly with respect to the Khalifat.
 Nationalist opinion. which is unani- moualy in favor of accepting the de- cisions Of the Angora assembly. has been voiced by Moulvi Kifayatullah. president of the Jamait- ul- ulcma. He condemns the sultan's flight as prov ing the correctness Of the Angora as- sembly's apprehensions ns to his atti- tude toward the welfare of Islam. By his action the sultan. in the opinion of Moulvi Kifavatullah. forfeited the sympathies Of the Islamic world.
 In the larger cities of India and Burma. mass meetings have been held to congratulate the new sultan. The meeting at Rangoon. though held at Mohammedan mosque. was at tended by number of Buddhist monks, one of whom appeared on ihe 1 The attendance at this i was said to be more than | twenty thousand.

EYES FROZEN, PILOT

Aviator Rights Plane After Fall.
 ing 18,600 Feet

Mount Clemens Mich. Jan. 3o.-
 Numbed and unconscious from thu
 cold and his eyes frozen Lieut.. Jame,
 D. Summers. pilot of the First Pur
 suit group at Selfridge Field. fcl
 with his airplane from an altitude O 19,o00 to within 400 feet of thu ground---a drop of nearly four miles, before he recovered his senses. righted his plane and landed safely.
 Though Summers remarkable ex. periepce occurred Saturday during maneuyers ordered by Brig. Gen. Will liam c. Mitchell it was not made pub lie until today. Summers was out with several other aviators. A patrol" of several minutes was maintained at a height of 19,000 feet. The thermome- ters on the plans registered 20 degrees blow zero.
 Suddenly Summers plane fell, ap- group was over Canadian territory. The other aviators rushed to the spot where they expected Summers to fall. Then they saw that his plane had be- come righted and was landing without disaster.
 Summers was almost unconscious and exhausted, when the fellow avia- tors reached him. Army surgeons said vital optic nerves and others had been frozen suddenly and that unconscious ness must have followed in few sec onds. The thawing of those nerves at a lower altitude they said, probably restored his senses.
 At 19,000 feet my motor was run ming smoothly and everything was ap parentIy going well, but the intense cold seemed to chill me through and Summers said today. T was making about 175 miles an hour. it appeared as if everything was hay and then numbness set in Tn half crazy way I started work ing the controls. Then everything went dark.
 Suddenly l came to and found my self dropping rapidly and swirling ,round' about 400 feet from the ground, out of control. Somehow got my ship out of the fall and-here am.''
 That Summers was able to bring | lis plane out of the fall so close to he ground after the terrific speed ,ained in such descent was consid- cred to be an amazing feat.

FIELD OF JEWISH
 RELIEF BROADENS
White Russia and Ukrain eAlso to
 Be Included in Program

Moscow. Jan. 3O.--A comprehensiv : reconstruction program in the Ukrain
 and White Russia has been launche, by the Jewish Joint Distribution com mittee, which has heretofore con
 centrated its resources on emergenc
 famine relief. An agreement with th
 Soviet government, detailing the en
 larged program, was signed las
 month. In affiliation with the Amer.
 ican Relief Administration, the Jew.
 ish Joint Distribution Committee is tc
 continue its famine relief by providing | funds for the feeding of 300,000 chil-
 dren for ten months.
 l The reconstruction program pro- vides for the introduction of tractors
 and other improved implements; the importation of selected seeds from the United States; the provision of farm credits through cooperative associa- ton, and the establishment of tech nical and agricultural schools in vari- ous districts. New machinery is to be supplied whenever possible, and old machinery will be repaired.
 "A large share of the agricultural troubles of Russia" said Dr. Joseph Rosen, director of the Jewish Joint Distribution Committee in Russia, out lining the program of reconstruction, has been due to failure to take up the newer and better methods of farming. Our first step will be the introduction of the tractor. Some of these are al- ready here, and by summer we expect to have 75 at work. In the spring we will blow as much ground as possible, and the Jewish Join Distribution, per sonnel will instruct the peasants in the use of the tractors.
 We intend to introduce the best seed into Russia, selecting it from the proper areas in the United States. The seed will be sent to agricultural sta tions where it will be planted, and the harvest will be turned, not into food, but also into seed. We hope this pro- cess within a. few years will give an adequate amount for the Russian paintings.
 Russian live stock is to be put on it's feet again, too. We hope to help ! in this by importing bIooded bulls and | stallions."
 The Joint Jewish Distribution Com | mittee has appropriated s1, 1000 for work. In addition S250,000 has been set aside for the re establishment of schools and to provide better facilities and teachers. The appropriation for farm credits is s25O,000 the money being advanced to peasants for the building of homes md the purchase of implement for he farm.
 Of the 100000 children being fed II Russia at this time by the American Relief Administration. 300,000 are be- ng supplied with food from an appro- 'riation of s1,250.00 provided by the oint Jewish Distribution Committed. his work is to continue until Septem- CT 1, 1923. Independent of the Amer ,an Relief Administration and of the oint Jewish Distribution Committees wn reconstruction program, the Jew ih Committee has appropriated also 200,000 for fuel relief and s300,000 pr clothing for the poor.

IF RHEUMATIC
EAT NO SWEETS
Says Glass of lad Salts Helps
to Overcome rheumatism
Acid.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid
than to cure, states a well-known
authority. We are advised to dress
warmly, keep the feet dry, avoid
exposure, and above all, drink plen-
~ of good water and avoid eating
sweets of all kinds.
Rheumatism is caused by body
waste and acids resulting from
food fermentation. 1t is the func-
ton of the kidneys to filter this
poison from the blood and cast it
out in the urine; the pores of the
skin are also the means of freeing
the blood of this impurity. In
damp and chilly cold weather the
skin pores are closed, thus forcing
the kidneys to do double work;
they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate this waste
and acids, which keeps accumulat-
ing and circulating through the
system, eventually settling in the
joints and muscles, causing stiff.
ness. soreness and pain. called
rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheuma-
tism get from any pharmacy about
Tour ounces of Jad Salts; put a
tablespoonful in a glass of water
and drink before breakfast each
morning for a week. This is help.
full to neutralize acidity, remove
waste matter, also to stimulate the
kidneys, thus often Kidding he
blood OF rheumatic poison.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and il
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with lithia,
and is used with excellent results
by thousands Of folks who are
subject TO rheumatism.

The board, in refusing to raise
funds for such purpose, denounced
the plan and flayed Congress for
it's failure to appropriate funds for
a counsel to represent the Com
mission in valuation cases involving
utilities rates.
The board unanimously voted to
reject Colonel Keller's plea for
funds. This action is expected to
have a powerful influence on the
action taken by other bodies in con-

The matter will be taken up by
the board of directors of the Wash

The Board of Trade members
based their rejection on the ground
that payment of counsel through
