Lord Locke. who presided at a
luncheon, said the enterprise was
a venture by British sportsmen,
designed to continue the British
traditions Of exploration and dis
covery. Captain Mains explained
that arrangements for the flight
were secret. as other countries
were going to- compete; that II
Captain Macmillan and he were
successful they would find the
best airway around the world for
commerce. They wanted to sur
vey for the commercial point &c
view, he said, and get the best
landing places, the shortest
routes and the best times Of the
year for flight. They also hoped
to find the best winds, heights
Of fogs, etc.

ship will carry a number Of sam.
pies OF goods from British firms.
At each port of call we shall dis

And his conceit works more
than one way. If it causes him to
fancy himself somewhat, it also
drives him toward pride of
achievement as well as pride Of Q

And his family and friends bene-

they rather lose the idea that
what they appreciate him for &C.
tually springs from conceit!
The man-ef today is weak
sometimes. So is the woman of

the psychological evidence of

responsible for it, though it some
times may be overcome.

LONDON MILITARY EXPERT BARES
 SECRETS OF RUSSIAN RED ARMY

LONDON, June l.. - Associated Press. )-Much of the mystery and speculation which have existed con corning the strength of the Soviet Red Army is said here to have been cleared up by a military correspond ent of the London Daily Mail who has just returned from Moscow. He says that at the beginning of 1923 the strength of the army had fallen from 950,000 to 500,000. At the pres ent time there are 2S0,000 men in the infantry, 60,000 in the cavalry, 10000 in the technical units, and 30,000 in the navy The Chekas frontier units contain 50,0O0 men, and it's internal units 60,000.
 The army has 2,000,000 rifles, 14,- 800 machine guns, 5,700 light ma chine guns, 5000 cannon, more than 3,000,000 shells, and 1,000000,000 mu- nitions The war establishment of a division consists of 15,0O men and 6,500 horses, comprising three infan- try regiments, three squads of cav airy, three batteries of field artillery three howitzer batteries. and the usu- al contingents of sappers, engineers, munitions columns. etc.
 There are 23 airplane factories, but only five are now working. The aviation department, which is in the hands of a committee of three, with Trotsky at the head, expects to have 10000 airplanes in 1924, with cores bonding personnel
 The correspondent adds that the Bolsheviks also have received many shipments of airplanes from Italy England and Germany,
 Realizing the necessity of produc ing officers from the working classes, the Bolsheviks have established many military schools. They are more num- erus and better equipped. the Daily Mail expert says, than similar schools in the United States and England. The schools embrace special classes in general staff work. engineering, infantry, cavalry and signals.

MASON GIVES
 ENCOURAGING
 WORD ON MINE
Expect to Put on Third Shift in Mill This Summer at Will
 fam Henry Bay Property.

Charles w. Mason, president Of the Endicott Gold Mining Company operating at William Henry Bay, ar rived in Juneau today on the steam CT Alameda. after spending the win ter in the States, maintaining his headquarters in Tacoma where he re- sides. MT. Mason left this afternoon on the Earl M. for the mine where he will remain until the latter part of this month.
 It Is probable a third shift will be put on in the mill within short time MT. Mason said, depending on the outlook of the development and which will be determined when he has made a survey of the operations. Two shifts have been working since June 1. A ball mill classifier and filter have yet to be installed before a third shift can be put on. MT. Mason said he can give no definite date but he anticipates the installa- ton of this machinery will be as soon as work can be started.
 Seventeen thousand feet of lumber were recently shipped to the mine for the erection of an addition to the mill building to house the compressor and other machinery for further op- erations The building and the in stallation of the machinery will take some time but it is expected all will be completed and the mill will be in full operation before the end of the summer.
 The mill now puts through 90 tons of ore per day and with the installa- filter, will be capable of putting through 15O tons, MT. Mason said. Twenty men are employed at the present time, and 30 more men will be required when operations are in. creased.
 Many complications may arise al any time in mining operations. but we expect to carry out our plans this summer" said Mr. Mason. Should it be that we cannot put on third shift in the mill we now have two shifts operating and are taking out pre-"
 MT. Mason will return to Juneau about June 27 in time to take the Alameda for the States. He will not return until the latter part of July when he will be accompanied by a party of about seven of the stock holders, who will spend several wetks at the mine

CAVE-N AND WATER HALTS TUNNEL AT
 THE JUALIN MINES

According to word received by H Berner's Bay Mining Company from Manager Jean Vanophem. now at the Jualin mine operated by the company a serious cave-in of the tunnel work fngs in one spot, together with the tapping of heavy flow of water has caused the temporary cessation of operations of the mine. Part of the crew is laid off for the present and part is standing by at the mine until such time as a decision has been made as to the best plan of handling the situation.
 An engineer representing the Bel. gian interests locally Is at the mine and the head office of the company has been notified of the happening. It is expected that activities will be resumed soon. Manager Vanophem is expected to come to Juneau to- morrow.
 The course of the big development and drainage tunnel was changed somewhat when work was resumed on the big prospect last Spring. which resulted in striking the geolo. gicsl fault which now presents such difficulty to operations. It may be necessary to abandon the workings so recently made, back up on the present line of work and start over again. In order to establish the right course to pursue and to deter mine how best to avoid the geologi cal fault it will probably be neces sary to have some diamond drill prospecting done.
