John f. Dietz Laid to
Rest at Rice Lake, Wis.

Rice Lake, Wis.-John F. Dietz, who
died in Milwaukee last Thursday,
came back home on Sunday, back
home to rest forever in the north
woods cemetery.
Just across the river from the farm
he left to seek happiness in the
Thornapple river clearing, all that is
mortal of the defender of Cameron
dam, on this Mothers day, was low
cred into a grave beside that of his
own mother in Meadow Creek ceme-
terry.
There was something pathetic in
the sad Homecoming of the defender
of Cameron dam. All the glamor
which the north once threw about the
life of John Dietz is gone. A few of
his old faithful friends gathered at
the railroad station whenN his body ar
rived on a North Western flyer, and
few of his neighbors tenderly car
ried the flower laden casket to the
grave.
A few were present at the Presby-
terrain church, where the last rites
were said, but except for these few,
Rice Lake, where Dietz lived from
boyhood until he opened up the i'll
fated clearing on the Thornapple river,
seemed to have forgotten.

Amended Tax Bill
Is Passed BY Senate

Washington, D. C.-The senate Sat-
urday passed the tax bill and sent it
to conference with the house. As
passed, the measure has virtually no
resemblance to the bill as reported by
the senate finance committee three
weeks ago.
All the important rate schedules in
the Mellon plan were wiped out by
the Democratic-P Progressive coalition
and the Democratic rates substituted
for them.
The measure carried a provision for
a rs per cent reduction in taxes, pay
able this year on 1928 incomes.
The bill carries out completely the
Democratic theory of big tax reduc-
lions on small incomes, with lesser
reductions on large incomes. The
Progressive coalition OBJ
tanned adoption of their normal sur
tax, inheritance, corporation and big
gifts rates.
On every point where the Republic
cans resisted the Democratic program
they were defeated.
The Mellon plan of rate reduction
was easily defeated in both houses.
The house adopted the Longworth
compromise plan, which represented
a medium between the Mellon rates
and a Democratic proposal. But the
senate went further and adopted OUT
right the Simmons Democratic plan

MISSING AIRMEN
ARE FOUND ALIVE
Maj. Martin and Companion
Safe After Thrilling E1-
Perience in Alaska.


Cordova,. Alaska-Maj. Frederick L.
Martin and his mechanic, Staff Ser
geant Alva L. Harvey. who have been
missing since April 80, when they left
Chignik in their round the world
flight, are safe at Port Moller, Alaska
A radio message was received here
from Maj. Martin Sunday morning.
The plane struck a mountain near
Port Moller an hour and half after
it left Chignik, according to Maj. Mar
tins message. Although the plane
was wrecked, neither of the aviators
was hurt, he said Port Moller is 1879
miles west of Chignik
The ayiators owed their existence
the radiogram said, to concentrated
food and nerve" Exhausted, the flight
commander and his mechanic finally
reached a trapper's cabin at the SOUTH
ern most point of Port Moller bay on
the morning of May T. Here they
found food and regained sufficient
strength to walk the beach three days,
before they were rescued.
After a rest in the trapper's cabin,
the flyers walked to the beach and
were able to fash the first message
of their safety to the world, after be-
ing reported missing ten days.
The trials and privations of the
aviators were circulating, but they
plodded on persistently and won a.
gigantic battle with the elements
against great Odds The brief radio
note said they would remain at Port
Moller until receipt of further orders
from headquarters in Washington
The discovery of Maj Martins To-
cation has ended an intensive search
by every agency at the command of
the government Two United States
coast guard cutters, the Algonquin
and Haida, plowed through turbulent,
gale dashed waters of the North Pa
cific day and night in search of the
two aviators.

PRESIDENT COOLIDGE
WINS JAP BAN DELAY
Conference Committee De-
fers to His Opinion.

Washington.-Pre Coolidge, by
strenuous last-minute efforts, obtained
from senate and house immigration
bill conferees an agreement to recon-
mend postponement of statutory Jap
anese exclusion until March /, 1928.
Such a postponement would give the
State department opportunity to nego-
tate with Japan for exclusion by
treaty.
Confronted with the prospects Of ex-
clusion effective July next, as agreed
to by the conferees, the President held
a number of hurried conferences, with
the result that the conference commit
zee, at a session late in the day, re-
scinded their previous action and voted
for the new effect date.
Insistence by the President for the
delay in operation Of the exclusion Sec
ton was the reason given by the con-
ferees for their unusual action. Sen
ator Reed (Rep., PAD, as spokesman
for the conference, said the new pro-
vision had been proposed by the house
members Eat the request of the Pres
ident," and had been accepted by the
senate members for that reason.
The provision for exclusion as now
agree on is in the following language
"This subdivision shall not take eff
feet as to exclusion until March 1.
1925, before which time the President
is requested to negotiate with the Jap
anese government in relation to the
abrogation of the present agreement
on this subject"
The new date was suggested to
Chairman Johnson by the President.

SIX Men HANGED
FOR Staying ONE
Sent to Their Deaths in Pairs
by Aged Cowled
Hangman.

Amite, La.-Six men who three
pears ago attempted to rob bank,
resulting in the murder of a man,
went to their deaths at the end Of
the hangman's moose in the Tangipa-
hOa parish jail.
They were executed in pairs, the
aged cowled hangman running from
the improvised platform Immediately
after each pair had dropped, only to
return after their bodies had been
cut down to prepare for the nooses
for those next. The executioner
brought his total to thirteen.
The men were hanged on the double
gallows in thirty minute intervals
with clocklike regularity, four dying
calmly and the other two, one as a
result of an attempt at suicide and
the other of nervous collapse, realizing
little of what was in progress. The
executions began at noon.
Lamantia, while Leona and Dea-
more, the first pair to hang, were
swaying from the gallows and RIM
and CYCLIC were waiting to begin their
walk to the scaffold, obtained a small
pocketknife he had secreted and
stabbed and gashed himself in the
chest several times.
RIM and CYCLIC were returned to
their cell and Lamantia was taken
into the corridor for an examination
Oy physicians. They pronounced the
wounds superficial, and those in
charge Of the executions sent Lamar
tia and Bocchio to the scaffold. Boo
chic had to be carried to the scaffoid.
Lamantia, with his shirt stained
with blood from the self-lnflicted
wounds, could not stand and he was
seated in chair on the trap and went
to his death in that manner.

world was not ready for peace, saying:

are often the most Quarrelsome. When
you get among them they talk about
a better world, and they knock you
down when they get you in the lobby.
The greatest enemies of peace are the
pacifsts. If we had had the peace
some Of them wanted we would all be
