has been asked to check up on a re-
port received by George A. Long

1t seems that the boy left his
home at 119 Seventh avenue. Long

MUST HAVE NERVES OF STEEL
Plotting and Control of Airplane
While Travelling $50 Miles an
Hour Requires Skill.

The plotting and control of plane
hurting through space at four miles
a minute or better is a feat to con-
lure the skill and resource of the most
flyer. Coordination of
brain and hand, nerves of steel, in
slant judgment and every faculty on
tiptoe-these are essentials for sue
cess and safety. In the test flights
for record speed at Mitchell field,
Lieutenant Brow handled his plane
with machine-like precision. "Not a
thrill" was his comment after his Az
miles-a-minute clip. If the mick of
time" means anything as standard
of measurement Williams displayed
that he had a full understanding of
it's meaning Diving from an altitude
of 5000 feet to gain speed before he
leveled off over the course, he ap-
preached to within ten feet of the
ground, headed for almost certain de-
struction. One-fortieth of a second
more and the crash would have come.
But in that "nick of time" Williams
leveled off and sped away to new
worlds record He estimated the
speed in the dive at $50 miles an hour.

quent recurrence and easy of. OBJ
servation. Assuming that light re-
quires time wherein to move from
place to place through space, the in
terval between successive eclipses
would appear too short when the earth
Is approaching Jupiter and too long
when the earth is receding therefrom.
Romer found in his observations that
such was the case, and that the in
terval was conditioned by the rate of
speed at which the earth changed
places relatively with Jupiter. From
these constants Romer computed that
light expended about 1914 minutes in
crossing the earth's orbit. From this
is deduced a velocity of about 10000
miles a second.

Forest fires alone burn over 100000
acres of forest land every year, de-
stroying not only mature trees, but
what is worse-the young growth as
well.

If the soviet authorities are ready to
repeal their decree repudiating Rus
sia's obligations to this country and
appropriately recognize them, they can
do so. 1t requires no conference or
negotiations to accomplish these re
suits, which can and should be
achieved at Moscow as evidence OF
good faith.
"The American government has not
incurred Liabilities to Russia or re-
pudiated obligations. Most serious Is
the continued propaganda to over
throw the institutions of this country
This government can enter into no ne
gotiations until these efforts directed
from Moscow are abandoned"
Mr.. Hughes followed this up by
making public the text of instructions
by Zinoviev, president Of the commu-
mist international and of the Petrograd
soviet, to the Workers Party of Amer
lea, dated August 1923, telling the com
munist organization how to carry on
the work of undermining the institu-
lions of this country. The Department
of Justice vouches for the authenticity
of these instructions, which must be
interesting reading for those senator's
and congressman who, having visited
Russia during the summer. are now
clamoring for recognition of the soviet
regime.
Senators Borah and Norris attacked
the administration Russian policy
sharply and Senator Lodge promised
the foreign relations committee would
investigate the question of recognition
Secretary Ruthenberg of the Workers
Party of America says the alleged
Zinoviev letter is fraudulent and was
never received by the organization.
He accuses the State and Justice de-
partments of devising "frameup."
ID AMSAY MACDONALD, leader of
IN the Labor party, is ready to I'M
dertake the government of Great Brit
ain soon after parliament meets on
Jan. 8, and it is now taken for granted
that he will be given the chance. In
recent conference with Sir John
Bradbury, British member of the rep
arations commission, he emphasized
his opposition to partial and linn
tied inquiry into German affairs and
also to an inquiry conducted solely
by financial experts, who he thinks
might be too much influenced by the
French. What he now plans is to
call a general world conference to
deal with the European situation and,
if necessary, to revise the Versailles
treaty. However Mr. Macdonald does
not desire to antagonize France, for
he aims at disarmament and knows
this requires the cooperation of the
French.
The Russian soviets tried to make
capital out of the Laborite victory in
the British elections and sent con-
gratulatory telegram with an offer of
assistance in consolidating the power
of labor in England. MI Macdonald
replied that he would consider the
message as never sent. His govern
ment when it comes into power will
nor be "red" nor even strictly trades
union and will be little more friendly
to the soyiets than was the old gov
eminent.
