WHO'S WHO
With the World Flyers
NO. 5-IIEUT JOHN HARDING.
NO. 5.-LIEUT. JOHN HARDING
IEUT. JOHN HARDING, JR.

Y IEUT. JOHN HARDING, JR.,
who is accompanying Lieut.
Nelson on the world flight, is
IL the SON of Mrs. Roberta Chase
Harding of S03 Camden drive,
Beverly Hills, Calf. He is 81 years
of age.
At the outbreak of the war in 1917
Lieut.. Harding enlisted In the Avia-
tion Service at Fort Oglethorpe. Ga.
from which he was sent to the Air
Service Mechanics Training School
school he was among the first in his
section and when he graduated 1T was
with a very creditable record. A nat
ural understanding of internal COM
bustion motors and keen desire to
learn quickly brought him to the at
tention of the officers under whom he
served so that he was gievn favorable
opportunities for advancement. He
rose steadily, soon attaining the grade
of master sergeant, which is one OF
the important ranks in the non-com-
missioned branch of the Air Service.
He was one of the mechanics picked
to accompany the pilots in the famous
round the-rim' f1ighc. which was
made in 1919. His service on this
flight was one of the factors which
caused him to be chosen for such i'm
portant duties later on.
Once Stationed at Boiling Field.
In 1920 he was stationed at Boiling
Field. Anacostia, ID. {. In 1921 he
was assigned as an aviation mecha-
nician at McCook Field, Dayton,
where he was given many important
duties. Long before the world flight
had become definitely established
there was a great friendship between
Lieuts. Nelson and Harding. friend
ship founded both on the personalities
of the two men and their common
love and understanding of mechanical
matters. 1t was but natural, then,
that when Lieut.. Nelson was named
as one OF the pilots of the round-the-
world flight, he should send in an ur-
gent reoueSt to the chief of the Air

RAIL REVENUES DROP.
Class l Lines Take
Loss in july.

Decrease of 10 per cent in operating
revenues and expenses of class l
railroads in July as compared with
July last year is noted in a state
ment giving detailed statistics issued
today by the Bureau of Railway
Economics. Class 1 roads represent
a total of 235,725 miles of line.
Operating revenues for July were
s4S1 296. 200. n decrease of $54,714, 400,
or 1912 per cent, from July, 1928. Ex-
penses were cut by $45.037 900 to
1863 I'll 900, a reduction of 10.9 per
cent. The decrease in operating rev.
enues, the bureau announced. was due
principally to falling off of coal
and ore traffic and a general decrease
in all freight traffic from the July,
1923, level.
Twenty-seven lines operated at a
loss in July, the bureau reported, as
compared with 3S lines in June.

Service that Harding be assigned as
his mechanician.
The request was speedily granted,
and Harding. who had already passed
examinations for commission In the
Reserve Corps, was called into active
duty as an Air Service officer.
While Harding's actual time In the
air is less than that of the other
flyers, unless it be that of Ogden, his
mechanical knowledge and his ca
pacity for hard work under the most
trying conditions have made his serv-
ices of special value on this unpre-

VALUE OF TOURISTS

! BOISE, Idaho,-Mark Means, COM
missioner of agriculture of the state
of Idaho, believes that the tourist is
valuable asset to every city, town
and community and nothing should
be left undone to make him welcome
He makes this clear in q somewhat
unusual bulletin he has Just issued,
in which he says:
The tourists after arriving in the
parks OF different towns and cities
are tired. They have their own cars
loaded down and do not care to drive
out alone to see the surrounding
country, because they think they
nave had enough driving. Every COM
muntty should have an organization,
especially the real estate men and
md out each day as to the people
In the parks who are seeking homes
l would suggest that every morning
at $3.50 one or two representatives of
the organization go to the parks,
visit the people who are camped
there, to find out the home seeker
and those who would like to take an
auto trip, which would be furnished
by the organization. They should
be shown the points of interest, the
dairy herds, poultry fiocks, fruit or
chards, grain fields, alfalfa, corn,
sugar beets, and other crops that are
grown from our splendid producing
lands
by SO doing they will probably re-
lieve many men of part of their hold
ings of Idaho land who have become :
involved during the speculative per-
iod and place two or three other
citizens where there was but one.
This in my mind, would not be
boom work but practical, construc- I
tive work. The people who are seek
ing homes can be honestly pointed to
the most productive soil that you
will find in any part of the American
continent To the people who wish
to build homes, we certainly can
point out that Idaho has fine eli
mate in her valleys that will main

AT CRATERs OF THE MOON

| Fifteen members of the Tech geo

Professor Flick Plastino, were ART
walls in Arco last Thursday afternoon
from Pocatello. They left immedia-
tely for the Craters of the Moon
where they spent Sunday morning
exploring the region and gathering
specimens for class study. This is
the second trip to the region by the
class; a similar trip having been
made last year for the same purpose.
Several of the students In attend
ance are members of the Tech en-
cheering class. They surveyed prac-
tically all of the territory embraced
in the National Monument and are
various craters, water holes, peaks
and caves are to be accurately placed
on the map, after which it will be

The class viewed many of the
wonders of the region and gathered
much information which will be val
liable to be put on display at Poca-
tello for some time for the benefit
Of the people of that community who
have not visited this unique region.

and above the others, on a higher
'taff.

The present calculations assume
