The Speed Limit.

WHAT will be the limit of mans
W speed through the air2 Accord
ing to Science and Invention, experts
and engineers have tried TO estimate
this limit since the Wright brothers
made their first successful fight in a
power-driven airplane. One hundred
miles an hour was once considered an
amazing speed limit for airplanes.
This, with many estimates that fol-
lowed. has been surpassed by tho
rapid advance of aircraft and motor
designs, until up to the present time
it is difficult to estimate what the
maximum speed Of future airplanes
will be.
There are, however. two conditions
to be considered, namely, the mechani-
cal limit and the physical limit. The
latter has already shown itself I'm
closed circuit speed trials when max
ing turns, due to the fact that CEN
trifugal force begins acting on the
blood, forcing it away from the
pilots head and rendering him tempo
rarly unconscious. While there arc
practically no physical defects noted
in flying Il straight course, outside of
nerve strain, the mechanical limits
are present This is known as an air
planes speed range, which is the dif
ference between the low landing speed
and the highest level flying speed the

ing the point of departure in the de
sign.
At the annual international air races
a landing speed not to exceed rs miles
an hour is fixed, so that safety is not
sacrificed in the work of science to
advance the worlds speed records.
AS the airplane at present is the
most effective weapon of war, due to
its speed and maneuverability and
with the leading countries Of. the
world striving to attain constantly in
creasing speeds. it is safe to estimate
velocities in excess of 400 miles an
hour in the near future.

HEALTH AND ACCIDENT
INSURANCE GAINING

1t is a matter OF public interest
hat there are about eighty-nine &C
cident and health insurance COM
panies doing business in western
states. n losses were paid by 6S
com panies in California last year of
about S4,959,515.33.
The first mutual benefit health and
accident policy vas written on the Pa
cific Coast in the fall of 1918. and
since then this class OF benefit in
surance has increased to the extent
of millions of dollars.
Working men and women and
their families are learning that this
kind of insurance offers a basis of
credit and stability to them to as
great an extent as fire and life in
surance offers a basis of credit to all
business.
VIM. p. Jarvis of Oakland, Gen.
Mgr, Mutual Benefit, Health and Ac-
cident Assn, an authority on insur-
ance compromising workers of all
classes In cases of injuries and health
disability. says the number of poll
cies covering such risk are increas-
ing rapidly. In 1924 the company
which he represents paid more than
100000 in health and accident
claims in California alone.
This type OF insurance enables n
workman TO provide for himself and
his family in a businesslike manner.

YELLOWSTONE PARK, WYO.,

The basis OF this statement is taken
from the shortest railroad route

SECOND CLASS
POSTAL RATES
ARE ATTACKED

ATLANTA, GA, JULY 23.-With
the newspapers of the country grad
ually weaving away from use of the
postal service there is danger still of
more OBJECTIONS if the United States
government continues to raise rates
on second class mail matter, accord
ing to a brief by the Southern News
paper Publishers Association, pre-
pared for presentation Thursday to
the joint postal committee of con-
gress.
The brief takes exception to a be-
lief that the postal service should
be self-supporting. Rather it points
out, the rates should be based on
what will the traffic bear?"
The traffic to newspapers, it says
has already reached the breaking
point. Many newspapers deliver
their entire editions in the cities and
nearby towns by their own service
for II of these two reasons: More
prompt delivery service, or less cost"
the brief claims.
I'VE maintain that ever the pres
ent basis of second-class rates is I'M
reasonably high. We strongly pro-
test against any adjustment that
would increase these rates and urge
tudt lHc Investigations Oh your COM
mittee will be such as to prove to
you the ACCESSIBILITY of the restora-
ton of the rates on second class mat
ter that were in effect in 1920, af-
ter the second advance of the war
revenue act, which are the same
rates that were advocated by Senator
George at the last session of con-
gress" concluded the brief.
Going back to the formation of
the postal service the brief points
out that it was instituted primarily
for the transportation of letters or
first class mail and that other class
es there after are to be regarded as
by products.
Taking up the cost finding report
the brief contends that the auditors
charged against the second class
matter items that properly should
MOI have been charged against it, and
asks IN entire revision of these
charges in order to reflect a true
charge against that class. This, it
is commended, is necessary to obtain
figures which may reliably be used
for the purpose of making rates.

Canyon station, visitors going to the
buffalo ranch will ride in the stage
coaches much in vogue during the
late nineties. The Lamar river,
across which the coaches with their
four and six horse teams will ford,
will bring back many a recollection
OF the earlier means of tr%ansporta-
ton, and will add a thrill to the
outing.
The Indian of yesterday, bedeck-
ed in the costumes of primitive days,
and reinstated in a district which
was once their stamping grounds, will
take active part in the roundup Of
the buffalo, one of the exciting
events of the week. A number of
cowboys will add magnitude to the
activities, while the buffalo them
selves, the same herd which glori-
fed the film depletion of the "Thun-
dering Herd will be seen in their
! natural haunts and in the roundup
staged on the plateau of the buffalo
ranch.
In the indian camp, visitors will
be given the opportunity of ~visualiz-
ing this great country as it was not
SO many years ago. Typical camps
with their teepees, open fires, ira
vols, the ''big chief" squaws and
papooses, handiwork of the tribe, all
will be open for the visitor to gaze
upon.
A roundup of what is given as the
Lamar river herd of the Yellowstone
the majority of the buffalo now
within the park boundary, does not
imply the proper degree of action
which will ne seen when the cur-
tain raises npon the roundup. Ac-
cording to the plans of the officials
the entire week will be II of the
! features of the park season and
those attending are assured of an
entertainment never before attempt
ed, all to be performed before the
eyes of the spectators from their po-
sition overlooking the sweeping coun-
try of the range.

Deputy Game
Warden Requests Aid
In Protecting Game

Jas. r. Little, editor of the En-
campment Echo, was recently ap-
pointed a special deputy game war
den by the Carbon County Fish and
Game Protective association.
That Mr.. Little is entering upon
the duties of this office conscientious
ly and with the determination to pro-
tect the game and fish of his sec
tion is shown by the following arti-
Gle in a recent issue of the Encamp-
ment Echo:
In May of this year., by request of
the Carbon County Fish and Game
Protective association, of which |
am a member, and without any So
licitation whatever OIL my part, l was
appointed deputy game and fish COM
missioner for this section by State
Commissioner A. A. Sanders, and l
wish to- appeal to all sportsmen
and those interested in the welfare
of our wild game and fish to aid me
in UNFOLDING the game and fish laws
of the state.
There are none of us that ever
tished or hunted any but what have,
at one time or another, violated the
game laws. In fact, when the Car
bon County Fish and Game Protective
association was organized at Rawlins
early last spring, practically every
member admitted that he had done
so, but took an obligation not to do
so any more and to report any viola
tons that might come to- his know
ledge.
The game and fish of Wyoming,
especially the latter, are becoming
more scarce every year, but If those
who really enjoy the sport of hunt
ing II fishing will exercise their
energies in helping to protect what
we have left, within a few years
there will be a noticeable increase.
BY seeing that all fishermen have
a license and that none take more
than the limit and those OF legal
size, will aid materially in having
good fishing for u own sport in
the future.
AS stated above, my appointment
as deputy commissioner here was
unsolicited on my part, but any vio-
lations of the state game and fish
laws coming within my knowledge,
or reported to me, be the violator a
friend or foe, will be Investigated
thoroughly and prosecuted when
conditions warrant, and l will ap-
preciate any assistance and coopera-
tion that l may receive. Myself and
several others IN Encampment each
have a supply of all kinds of licenses,
any OF whom will be glad to issue
them.
Thanking you in advance for your
cooperation in seeing that our fish
and game laws are observed, that
future generations may also enjoy
the sport. l will try to be
Gratefully yours
