Two Blackberry Pies Nearly Wreck
Hopes of Aviators in Record Flight
Long Distance Fliers Take on Fuel and Food in Air
Without Accident-Richter
Gets Thrill.

Fuel, lubricating oil and food were
taken abroad in mid-air with consum-
mate skill and almost incredible
rapidity.
The first contact was made at ]
this morning. Lieut.. Virgil Hines and
Frank Seifert handling the refuling
plane.
Because of the glare of the sun,
Hines and Seifert waited until the
racing plane had passed pylon No.
2 near Nestor and headed toward the
north before thesl let go the 40-foot
hose. Within three minutes, 80 gal
Ions Of gasoline had been transferred
to Smith and Richter's plane. and
long before the big De Haviland had
passed the sighting wires at the
marine base, Hines and Seifert were
back at North island.
Additianal contacts were made at
2, and $50 for gasoline at for
lubricating oil and at for food.
At tomorrow morning, if the fliers
are still in the air, the first worlds
speed record will be broken. This is
for $500 kilometers. Every four hours
thereafter until the 1000 kilometer
mark is reached. the aviators will
smash speed records now held by
Lieut.. Oakley Kelly and John A. Mac
Ready. No records have as yet been
established by any American or
European aviator for distances great
er than 1000 kilometers.

San Diego, Cal, Aug. 27.-Two
pies in a metal lined
bucket to which was attached so
pounds of lead nearly wrecked the
hopes Of Capt. Lowell H. Smith and
Lieut.. John Dichter, who are trying
for world air record laurels here to-
day. The incident occurred at 1850
this morning, when the fliers. after
going aloft at 5:O4 and covering $50
miles at an average speed of 92.44
miles an hour, signalled for some
luncheon.
Another plane at once went aloft
and made contact with Smith and
Richter's craft, lowing the pies and
some sandwiches. Richter, standing
in the pickpit, had grasped the bucket
containing the pies, when a sudden
gust of wind caused the upper plane
to nose UP. For few seconds
Richter. clinging to the bucket, was
suspended in mid-air. Cap
tain Robert G. Erwin. pilot OF the
contact plane, quickly whipped the
nose of his plane downward and
Richter settled back in his seat with
the blackberry pies and sandwiches in
his hands.
The aviators set a whirling pace
on the so kilometer course, speeding
at 90 miles an hour all day in their
effort to break the worlds endurance,
distance and speed records for $500
kilometers and over.

Answer TO British Note Mild
and Cordial, but Offers
No Constructive
Proposals.
Favors Secret Parleys
BY Universal Service.

London, Aug. 27.-The Belgian
memorandum. which arrived tonight.
while 1t tries to be as mild and cor
dial as possible, is pathetically help
less.
The note does not contain q Sin
gle constructive proposal and make,
not even the slightest reference I.
any impartial international commis
sion to investigate Germany's c.
pacity to pay.
Proposes New Agreement.
Though the note oyerflows with az
surances Of gratitude to Britain 70
its help. and with expressions of sym
pathy for Its burden of unemploy
ment and trade depression, and re
pudiates any idea that Belgium
wishes to deprive Britain of its dues
it proposes the substitution of a new
percentages agreement based on ma
terial damage only and excluding
damages to persons. This plan. while
nearly doubling Belgiums share ant
materially increasing that Of France
would seriously depreciate that o.
Britain.
About one-third of the note is de
voted to a discussion of the Belgian
claim to priority, citing numerous
diplomatic declarations in support of
the claims, including one from ex-
President Wilson, together with a
summary of facts and figures, and a
list of concessions made by Belgium
in previous conferences from the Spa
congress to the London meeting in
DECEMBER, 1922.
Repudiates Annexationist Aims.
While repudiating any aim to as
sist the annexationist movement on
the Rhine, the passage relative to
the progressive evacuation of the
Ruhr has been masculated by
Premier Poincare and left painfully
vague.
The note winds up with the hope
that there will be no more notes but
that there will be a return to private
conversations or resumption Of
secret diplomacy.

Irish Election
for Dali Eireann
Marked by Quiet
Polling Is Light and Little In
terest Taken-Few Dis.
orders Are Re-
ported.

Dublin, Aug. 27-The electorate OF
the Irish free state went 70 the polls
today in 20 constituencies for the
election of the $50 members of the
new dan eireann, and up to the last.
the elections maintained the unique
character Of the previous campaign
and were quiet and orderly. almost TO
dullness. This was particularly the
case in Dublin, while reports from
the provinces tell similar tale. with
trifiing exceptions in few cases,
where enthusiasm outrsn discretion
and csused slight disturbances.
The universal verdict IL that this
has been the quietest election In Irish
history. There was no excitement. no
laughter at the polling booths in Dub
lin nor in any Of the waiting lines
of voters. Judging from appearances,
the public is taking only small inter
est in the affair. and the polling has
not been heavy.
Civil guards and others responsible
for keeping order were at their
posts, but were not required in this
model election. and seemingly there
has been only the very smallest amount
OF intimidation. personation or at
tempts at personation, this being due
10 the heavy penalties provided.
According 10 some reports tonight
there has been poll throughout the
state of about so per cent OF the
electors. The only places where any
hriskness or excitement was shown
were Cork. Waterford and Kilkenny.
where the balloting is said to have
been heavy: reports from all other
places indicate a certain amount of
apathy.

reau announced in a bulletin Monday

Compared with Omaha's population
of little more than 100000. II is easy
to recognize the magnitude of this
business. done purely in retail stores.
But Omaha's position as a NOR

To Be Omaha s'Suburb"

A suburb of 900 homes to rise
"over night" on the Iowa side of the
Missouri river, short distance from
the Council Bluffs end of. the Doug
las street bridge. is the plan of Omaha
and Council Bluffs capitalists, it was
| learned Monday.
| The low price of ground on the
Iowa side of the river, the scent
street car fare through the purchase
of mileage books and the demand OF
persons working in Omaha for lower
rents has brought on the plan Of the
suburb of reasonable priced homes.
one of the proposed syndicate said
Monday.
Meetings Held.
This Omaha business man brought
out that person who resides in this
suburb will be able to travel to Omaha
on the street care for cents fare,
while his fellow workers pay cents
fare. or four fares for a quarter.
Meetings Of those who expect to
take part in the syndicate were held
in Omaha and Council Bluffs. The car
rying out of the plan Is almost a cer-
tainty. according to several inter
ested.
Under the present plan the houses
300 of them-will be erected the
way the cantonments were erected
over night" during the war and the
way complete suburbs are being
erected in California within a short
time.
"Quick job" Promised.
E. A. Wickham, contractor of Coun-
Gil Bluffs, has consented to take on
the task of erecting the suburb ard
advised the syndicate that he can do
quick job" It is his plan to use
several hundred workers. With
large number OF carpenters and other
workingmen on each house he ex-
poets to finish all the HOUSES at about
the same time.
Wickham's paving and sidewalk
gangs meanwhile would be paving the
streets and building the sidewalks.
The suburb will be ideal from the
standpoint Of reasonable priced homes.
plenty Of room between houses, wide
streets and sidewalks and proper cleo
trio lighting, gas and sewer arrange
ments.
More Planned.
The syndicate Of business men who
will build the suburb hope to receive
a fair return on their investment and
at the same time meet the problem ef
furnishing low rents to the mass Of
laborers.
II this suburb proves success sew
eral more may be erected.
A special appeal will be made to la
borers in industries near the river
front. such as the American Smelling
and Refining company.

Optimistic
Joy M. Hacker Finds Pioneer
Spirit of Faith Prevalent
in Western Nebraska
and South Dakota.
Coming Through Safely

A first hand report of conditions
in western Nebraska and South Da-
kota was brought back yesterday by
Joy M. Hacker, business man of
Omaha who formedly lived in that
country. He found a spirit Of con-
fidence and optimism on every hand.
New buildings are going up, good
roads are being built, and bountiful
crops are in prospect, with less small
grain raising and more diversified
farming.
1T would do any city man good
to go out in the country and note the
confident spirit with which those on
the farms and in the small towns are
handling their affairs" said Mr..
Hacker. "They know that they are
coming through all right. In an auto

Omaha. After all, South Dakota is
the same sort of country as Nebras
ka, and 1t is only an imaginary line
on the map that separates the two
states. At the rate development Is
progressing in the western end and
as patents to the Indian lands are
