WORLD CRUISERS
 LEAVE AT NOON
 FOR NEW YORK
Hop To Washington Is Scheduled To Be Un-
 dertaken Tuesday
lBy Associated Press.l

BOSTON, Sept. 7.-The army air men who have only to cross this con- tinent to complete their flight around the world had their planes on wheels again tonight for the short hop to New York tomorrow.
 Tt should be plain Sailing from now on," the flight commander, Lieut.. Dowell H. Smith, said, adding that, although no new itinerary had been worked out, it was expected to make the series of flights to seattle inside of 10 days.
 Sunday was just another day of work for the fliers and they showed in constant personal attention to details here the same spirit oe sticking to the job until it was done that brought notice from airmen abroad. Maj. A. Stuart MacLaren, the British flyer, whose attempt to girdle ,e globe met with failure, spent much of the day with them, exchanging ideas as the American officers tested wire pumped oil into bearings, buckled on a new undercarriage. or swabbed off plane surfaces. .s4s-s z
 To Start At Noon
 With everything ship-shape for to- morrow's flight, Lieutenant Smith said the world cruisers would take off from the Boston air port at noon for New York, to arrive at Mitchell Field at 3 p. m. They will fly first to Providence, R. l., thence along the shore over New London, New Haven and Bridgeport, and along the shores of Long Island Sound to New York. They will circle over the city at height of about 2,500 feet, then swing back to Mitchell Field on Long Island.
 The world fliers will be preceded by an aerial escort of three planes headed by Maj. Gen. Mason M. Patrick, chief of air service, and several other planes will accompany them also, bringing up the rear.
 The fliers will stop in New York orly overnight, probably to Seattle is still uncertain. The world cruisers will stop at Dayton, O., Chicago, St. Joseph, Mo- and Omaha, Neb. Thence they will fly either to North Platte, Neb., or Cheyenne, Wyo., and the route to Seattle will te worked out ac- eOrdingIy.
 After concluding the world circum- navigation at Seattle. the planes will be flown by the world fliers or other pilots to Los Angeles or San Diego. The army air serrice is considering proposals for disposing of the planes to the cities for which they were named, but it was said another request that the flag plane Chicago be presented to the Smithsonian institution as an histor- ical exhibit was under consideration also.
 The sloughing off today of the pom toons carried by the Chicago and New Orleans marked the close of the water jumps of their world flight. The wheels that were attached were those left behind when the flyers sped away from Seattle April 6. The Boston II, which replaces the original ship of that name lost in Iceland waters, joined the flight only at Pictou, N. s.

Food Shortage Threatens People Of Shanghai As Wards Are Closed
 SHANGHAI, Sept. 7.-Fighting with redoubled intensity developed in the Liuho sector last night and continued throughout the night It is apparent from the reports of the latest activity that the Kiangsu forces are concentrat- ing their attack here.
 The Shanghai-Tachang road into the Liuho sector, which had hitherto been open to anyone willing to risk the dan ger of flying bullets, was closed this morning to everything except military traffic. Even holders of passes through the military lines were turned back.
 Artillery fire in this sector has been increasing but at noon today neither side had achieved decisive results.
 An unconfirmed rd port current here is that the United States army trans port Chaumont is bringing POO marines here from Cavite.
 Butchers of Shanghai are facing a shortage of meat supplies. They are said to have on hand sufficient food to care for the demands of the city for only two days and to be unable to pro- cure more from the interior due to in- terrupted traffic.
 General Ho Feng-Ling, the military governor of Shanghai, today personally visited upward of 800 men who have been brought from the battlefields to the hospitals here.

NEW CHRONICLE OF CHRETS LIFE
 IS UNCOVERED
Nation Scholars Find To
 Startle World, He Says

NAPLES, Sept. "A detailed chronicle of the life and martyrti0m of Christ, written in the fifty eighth year after his birth. has been discovered by the Italian scholar Mario Di .fartino. according to Commander Della, super intendent of the Nsples public libraries.
 Della has forwarded summarized re- port of the discovery to the minister of education in Rome. Di Martino's find Is not an orinigal work. according to Della, but is a transcription from the original.
 The revelation contained in the new ly discovered p: ges of parchment are expected to cause a tremendous sensa- tion throughout the Christian world, as the book is said to. reavel many un- known particulars of the life of Christ.
 Just before his discovery of this record, Di Martino came upon the com plete manuscripts of Livy, the Roman historian, and Della has vouched for the authenticity of the discovery.
 "The authenticity of Liv. books cannot be doubted" he said "Repre- sentative Casati is investigating for the government and ht soon will make a report more detailed than mine, but fully confirming my summar:'. The books certainly are here and no one can take them a ay."

JONES SEES VICTORY
 INV BOTH HOUSES
Senator Urges Democratic Pres
 ident For Sake Of Harmony

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-Senator Jones of New Mexico, chairman of the democratic senatorial committee, in a statement today, declared the election ''of democratic senate and house ap- pears to be certain and common sense will dictate to the American people the advisability of the election of demo- cratic president, and thereby bring har- mony between the executive and legis- lative branches of our government"
 I've all know" the senator said, 'that the republican party is welded to reaction, but for the sake of the cleo tion in some instances, the campaign orator would have us believe that 1t is the chief apostle of progressivism. Com mon sense as a campaign issue is noth- ing, if not unique. It is hardly an ap- peal to intelligence to suggest to the American electorate that it should have to choose an administration that would use common sense in governmental mat ters."

BAVARIAN KICKS AT INJUSTICE OF BEER DATA

MUNICH, Sept. "A gross in- " justice has been done the
 3avarian capacity by statis- tics recently compiled for Il Ger many, according to local beer drinkers.
 The Bavarians assert that if separate statistics had been com piled for their state, instead of i'm cluding Bavaria with the "half pro- hibitionist" north, their per capita consumption of Leer would have been shown to, be 255 quarts'a year. This would give Bavaria first place among the European states, with Holland ranking next at POT quarts for each person.
