WORLD PLIERS ARE AT CHICAGO TODAY City Momentarily SuspendS
 Business to Greet Them LEFT DAYTON AT 10 A. M.
Arrive Over Lower Chicago At 12:34 p. m. Plan to Continue Their Trip On to Omaha Tomor- row--Greeted By Thousands.

Air Mail Field, Haywood, H., Sept. 15.-Lieut. Lowell Smith and his round-the-world flying com panions descended at the United States air mail field here at 12:55 p. m. completing their 2g4 mile hop from Dayton in 2 hours and 55 minutes.
 Lieutenant Smith in his fagplane, the Chicago. came down at 12:55 p. m., Chicago time. Lieutenant Eric Nelson, in the New Orleans landed at 12:59 p. m,, and Lieuten- ant Leigh Wade with his Boston II followed at 1901 p. m.
 The fiiers arrived over lower Chi cago at 12:S4 p. m., flying north- weasterly along the lake shore to- ward the downtown district.
 Thousands watched the arrival from the roofs of skyscrapers, from the new municipal stadium in Grant park and other points of vantage near Lake Michigan.
 Whistles shrieked as the fiers scared over the shore line and boulevards and parks held their quotas of the spectators.
 The planes instead of circling over the stadium continued north ward along the lake shore until they passed Lincoln park and then turned in a southwesterly direction for the ail mail field at Haywood.
 The world girdlers with an es- cort of five planes reached the downtown district at 12:SS p. m. eastern standard time, the three army planes flying in close forma- tion.
 Fire escapes, as we'll as sky scraper tops and windows of tall buildings were black with people.
 The three flyers, before anyone could reach them, jumped briskly from their planes and were enfolded by the receiving party and the crowds. The police. which up to this time had successfully held the people back, were overwhelmed. The fliers had great difficulty in entering the three automobiles which took them on q tour oc the field. . 'f" Greeted by Parents
 Lieutenant Wade's father and mother, who live at Cassapolis Mich, were the first to embrace him, and it was done over the struggling forms of others surrounding his plane. Mrs. o. s. Palmer of Cicero, a long time friend of Lieutenant Wade gave him a resounding smack on the lips.
 As the fliers passed the Speedway hospital, many of the afflicted war veterans there attempted to give them an ovation. The attempt was acknowledged by the fliers rising in their seats. They remained seated on the rest of the trip.

MILL OPERATIVES TO FIGHT WAGE SLASHES
Agitation Starts in Rhode Island-Proposed Cuts
 in Manchester, N. H.

Woonsocket, R. l., Sept. 15.- Three organizers of the United Tex tile Workers of America will speak at the gates of the Manville-Jenckes company mills here apd in Manville tomorrow in campaign against re- cent wage cuts in the mills, Presi- dent Thomas F. McMahon of the United Textile Workers, announced today.
 President McMahon said the re- duction was unnecessary, declaring that the Manville-Jenckes company and other manufacturers had cut wages already by speeding up ma chinery, reducing piece work price lists and giving leavers and spinners additional machines to care for.
 'The matter of fighting the wage cut has been left in my hands by the executive committee of the union," he said. When the workers 3.naake their decision l will name the time and place without hesitation. We did not starve in 1922, neither will we in 1924"
 Workers reported as usual at the company's plant here where a ten per cent wage cut went into effect today.
 Manchester, N. H., Sept. 15.-A committee representing the 14,000 operatives employed in the mills of the Amoskeag Manufacturing com pany will meet Agent Parker Straw of the mills tomorrow to discuss a proposed reduction of wages and curtailed working schedule. The mill management called the confer ence on the ground that reduction of wages in Rhode Island mills had made necessary similar action here.
 Leaders among the operatives eS- timated that the proposed cut would be 121s per cent and that a five day working week would be suggested.

Moscow.--Fs1ssia has discovered the worlds wonder cbiId-a boy aged four years and ten months, who has the strength of t fall-greaa man, but the mental faculties of 3 eAlld. He has a deep bass voice and | fally-grown mus tache and beard.
 He was born ut ladieostok, as a normal baby of normal parents, but after his first year began to mature at an astounding rate.
 The subject. WA5 stands about three feet high, t0daigs like a child, but has fully developed muscles.
 Similar cases are soId by no means to be rare. It is on record that brother of D Greek king was so ab- normal in his development that he was doing man work mad married and was the father of family when he died at the age oHseFea.
 A boy born in l74l at a village near Cambridge, England, developed so rap idly that be was acting us a farm la- borer at the age of 6Fe years and was as muscular as the average man.
