PRESMONT TO RETIRE
FROM GORDON'S STAFF
Assistant District Attorney Will
Resume Practice of Law
October /.

Arthur n. Presmont, for the past
three years an assistant United States
attorney for the District OF Columbia
has submitted his resignation to United
States Attorney Gordon, to take effect
October l. He will resume the practice
Of law. During his connection with the

engaged in many of the most important
cases in both branches Of the Criminal
Court.
He is a native of Philadelphia and
ment of the University of Pennsyl-
vania in 1912 and admitted to practice

ice of the Government as a land law

CITIES IN CONTEST
FOR WORLD PLANES
D. c. Assured of One for His
toricaI Exhibit-May Re-
main in Use Longer.

Since The Star announced on Septem-
Der that one or both of the world
girdling planes would be given to the
Smithsonian Institution for permanent
historical exhibit, the War Department
has been besieged by requests from
other cities for the first planes to make
this momentous circuit
There seems to be no doubt that
Washington will get the flagship. Lieut..
Lowell Smiths plane, the Chicago. But
when the gift will be made, and what
disposition will be made Of the other
plane, the New Orleans, which com
pleted the trip under Lieut.. Nelson. is
not decided.
Need Planes in Service.
The Army Air Service only had five
of these Douglas cruisers to begin with.
The Seattle was lost in Alaska and the
Boston at sea near Iceland. The fifth
plane, the Boston II, met the surviving
two of the flight after they landed on
this continent, an has only flown on
the world trip across the country to the
coast The three left, therefore, really
are needed for current flying service,
officials assert.
Each of the cities for which one of
the planes was named Is clamoring for
it's namesake, New Orleans, Chicago,
Boston, while Los Angeles is making an
equally strong plea on the ground that
the flight started in California and the
State should have one Of the planes for
it's airplane museum.
VIII Take Vacation.
The flyers themselves. after com
pleting the fight officially at Seattle
today will fly their planes back
to San Diego and then are expected to
take leave for recuperation from their
arduous and dangerous enterprise.
They have many invitations to speak
before scientific and other societies,
including some in Washington, and
later probably will accept some OF the
Invitations.
The air service already has learned
much from the trip about the wear
ing qualities of metals, WOOD, ana
cloth in hot. temperate and cold cll-
mates, and the planes Will be disman-
tied and examined minutely In Cali
fornia for further facts. After a
time they may come on to Dayton,
Ohio.
Many Lessons Learned.
Among important facts now in hand
from the fight are the discovery OF
the different requirements in radiators
for torrid and arctic temperatures;
propellers over water where moisture
is great and over land where the air
Is dryer; and the durability of wing
coverings under the same conditions.
The air service does not feel, like
so many Washington motorists, that
leaving planes out all night is a rea-
sonable policy, or all day, either.
Moisture and heat play havoc with
the planes. The world-girdling planes
are so large that hangers seldom were
availa BILE during the flight. and often
they were moored in water, getting
wet and then being blistered by the
sun.
The great Barling bomber can find
only one hangar in the country to
accommodate it and has the same
problem OF deterioration from the
elements. This problem, it is be-
lieved, can be solved only by expert
mentation in materials, and the world
flight has given a great impetus to-
ward a solution.

FRANCE SAYS GERMAN
IMPORT TAX is LEGAL
Cites British Precedent as Means
Of Collection of Repara-
tions.
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, September 27.-The French
reply made verbally yesterday at the
foreign office to the official protest
submitted by the German charge
daffaires against Frances imposition
of a 26 per cent import tax on all
goods from Germany, was, it is
learned today, that this way of col
lecting reparation is entirely legal
and according to established pre-
cedent. Great Britain having imposed
a similar recovery tax without elicit
ing protest.
Official circles are inclined to be-
lieve that Premier Herriot will make
no further response unless Berlin reit-
crates it's protest, or unless Owen d.
Young. temporary agent general for
reparation payment, takes up the
matter.

TURKS VIOLATE MOSLEM
RULE 13 CENTURIES OLD
Order Statue of Mustapha Kemal
First of Kind in History
of Country.
BY the Associated Press.

ID
NEW YORK, September 27.-Tur-
key has defed a MosIem prescription
of Is centuries standing by ordering
from Gutzon Borglum a huge made
in-America equestrian bronze statue
of Mustapha Kemal Pasha, head of
the new Turkish republic.
Since early in the Christian era
the Turk has been a destroyer rather
than a builder of statues. They vio-
lated his Moslem precepts and
aroused his religious ire. But strange
things are said to be happening in
the land of mosques, fezzes and
harems under the reign of the popu-
lar Kemal Pasha.
The statue will be 80 feet high, of
cast bronze, will cost approximately
100000 when erected in Angora, and
probably will reqCdre two years for
completion.

of young people from all over the
State OF Maine. They represent the
Baptist, Congregational, Methodist,
Christian and Friends churches and
are vitality interested in the work Of
their church. Some are Sunday school
teachers, some workers in the Chris
tian Endeavor Society while still
others hold some church office; in
fact everyone is connected with some
religious work in the State.
This Christian Endeavor Conven-
ton is held every year to gain enthu-
siasm and instill in the hearts of the
young people the desire Of following
Christ and helping others.
Augusta is fortunate in having such
bunch of earnest young people to
come to Augusta. The sessions are
to be held in the Penney Memorial
United Baptist church and everyone
is asked to attend as many of these
sessions as possible. Quite a few
have signifed their desire to help en-
terrain the delegates, but there is a
great demand yet.
The committee states: I'VE must
have homes where these delegates
may be entertained: that is: given
lodging and breakfast. Will you not
look at this great enterprise in a real
Christian spirit? 1t VII be real act

SERIOUS SITUATION
SEED CORN 1924

The seed corn situation in Maine
and all over New England is in a
serious condition due to the watery
condition of the stock. Good seed
corn of the flint variety of high
germation will he high priced being
about double in cost over that of
1923.
The corn harvested in New Eng
land last fall carried an unusually
high per Centage of moisture. The
unfavorable moisture content was
due to lack of dryness and the damp
foggy weather. During the carly part
Of January very cold wave struck
here. further reducing the cremation
of thousands of bushels of corn that
were in storage.
An authority on the situation de-
Clares that 80 per cent of the seed
corn growers in the big seed corn
belt in the West will have to buy
seed from other sources. People are
urged to use special care in the sell
ection of seed corn for grain or sill
age.
Seed corn which was $3.50 a year
ago. by the Farm Bureau cooper
alive plan. will he $3.50 to s. and Sc
in 1924. This applies to the Man,
moth Flint corn. The big Western
Dent corn will be cheaper but is not
as satisfactory for Maine condi-
tons.
