JOHN BROWNING,
INVENTOR, dies
W HILE ABROAD

OGDEN, Utah, Nov 26 P).-John
NJ Browning, famous inventor OF
firearms, died early today at Liege
Belgium, cablegram to his SON
John Browning of this city, an
nounced No details of the inventors
illness have been received here and
it is believed by membrs of MS fam
ily that his death was unexpected.
Mr.. Browning was 72 years ola.
With his wife, the inventor left
for Liege or October 10 last. AT
Liege they visited with their son,
val Browning, VINO is his fathers
representative in that city, where
many Of the firearms manufactured
along lines of Brown:ng's. invention
| are manufactured.
John M. Browning, despite his adj
vanced years, went to Belgium to
| perfect his latest invention an "ovel
and under double barrelled shotgun
The gun had one barrel above the
other instead of two horizontal bar
rels and was to have been manu>
| factured at the Leige plant, where
SO many Browning weapons have
| been manufactured. In 1913, when
| the millionth automatic Browning
pistol was turned out, King Albert
of the Belgians conferred upon the
inventor the title of "Chevalier of the
Order of Leopold
Although he considered ogden his
home, Mr.. BroWning spent much of
his time in the east and abroad,
where mis- inventions We're manu-
factured. Three of them are in
cluded in standard equipment in the
United States army. These are the
machine gun, the machine rifle and
the automatic pistol. In the las:
few years Mr.. Browning had worked
almost steadily in his shop here de-
veloping his anti-aircraft gun and
his new type of double barreled shot
gun.
From time to time he had been
engaged III work for foreign govern
ments, representatives of which
brought their problems to him here.
Unlike many great inventors who
were deprived of the fruits of their
creations, John NJ Browning, origina-
tor of the famous machine gun which
bears his name, has been described as
"a success from the start"
The Browning water cooled machine
gun, the .45 calibre automatic pistol
adopted by the United States army
and the machine gun rifle, all Brown
ing inventions, We're supplied to the
American and Allied armies by the
million and played tremendous part
in winning the war from Germany
Browning inventions never lacked al
market. From the time he manufac-
turned his first gun at the age of 1S,
until the World war made him more
widely known, Browning received flat
tering offers for his ideas and inven-
tions almost as soon as they had taken
definite shape on the work bench.
The son of rifle manufacturer
Browning devoted much of his time as
a child fashioning simple toys from
scraps of metal picked up around his
fathers shop in ogden, Utah. 1t was
from such scraps that he made his

ENJOYS VISIT
IN THIS CITY

Hudson Maxim, interna-
tionally famous inventor,
spent a very interesting day
in Douglas Friday. Under
the guidance of E. J. Hux-
table, Fred D. Hubbell and
-. w. Tardy, the distin-
guished visitor, with Mrs.
Maxim and Miss M. ".
Birney, his private secre-
tary, was shown the battle
ground Of the Villa-Lopez
forces at Aqua Prieta,
watched the moulding Of
copper plates in the Doug
las smelters and saw other
interesting sights in and
near Douglas and the bor-
der.
The Maxims will leave Douglas
early this morning for Tombstone,
where they will stop for lunch with
Judge and Mrs. Albert M. Sames.
From Tombstone, they will go on to
Tucson and Phoenix Both Mr. anc
Mrs. Maxim were greatly impressed
with Douglas and this section of the
southwest and Maxim remarked FRI
day night that the model Home
Beautiful" show them by Fred Hub
nell had destroyed Mrs Maxim's con-
tentment in their own home in New
Jersey.
When informed that John NJ.
Browning, famous inventor of fire
arms, had died at Liege, Belgium,
Friday, Maxim paid fine tribute to
Browning, whom he did not know
personally but of whose work he Is
fully informed Concerning Browning
he said:
John M. Browning was one of the
greatestN inventors and provers of
firearms and succeeded in inventins
some very effective and practical
types of automatic guns. The Brown-
ing automatic machine gun, which
with pair of folding legs in front,
was made possible to fire from
low position, has been adopted by
the u S. army and is being widely
used.
"a later development in automatic
machine guns over Browning's is tho
one invented by man named
Thompson, which is SO light that IT
can be fired from the shoulder like
rifle and is capable of firing 1,z0c
to 1,50O shots per minute. This gun
is particularly suitable for police
work"

making it's way through the
Ozark mountains the storm
struck with its greatest
fury near the Ozark foot
hills late yesterday and
swirled through the town
of Heber Springs, Ark.
Then it twisted across into

tions and characteristics
of a mid-fall tornado, dip
ped into half a dozen Ark
ansas counties and into
Louisiana whence it veered
to the east into Mississippi
and then into Tennessee
Alabama.
In Texas the disturbance
whipped up a sand storm
which took one life and
caused extensive property
damage about L u bbock
county.
Heber Springs suffered most. Half
Of the town was left in ruins, and
about the town more than 20 per sons
were killed and so injured. Quitman,

AID ARMY IN
CARROLL 5 PLAN

PARIS, Nov. 26 (AP)-
Rumania seemingly is on
the Threshold of momen-
tous political events. King
Ferdinand is reported to
be near death and western
Europe is flooded with un-
verified and unverifiable
reports that former Crown
Prince Carol may return
from France to the home
land and by a coup d'etat
take possession Of tn e
throne, the rights to which
he renounced last January.
simultaneously there are reports that
the king, who is suffering from can
Ger, is on the road to recovery, and that
Carol has no other intention than to
continue to lead an easy life in Neu-
lily For three days, Bucharest has
been cut off from telephone and tele-
graphic communications with Belgrade,
the Jugo-Slav capital, from which
place, however, volumes of news con-
tinue to emanate concerning what is
supposed to be going on behind the
scenes in court and political circles of
the Rumanan capital.
With Queen Marie on the Atlantic,
voyaging homeward from her visit to
TToif nd 1111a 10 fn TO q
part in the negotiations, it is reported
that the political parties, despairing
of the life of Ferdinand, are preparing
for new fight. This report says it
is more than a possibility that Carol,
supported by the peasants party and
certain elements in the army, with
which he is popular, will attempt to
return and make bid for his fathers
throne
So far as the other political parties
are concerned they reached an agree
ment in January. They decided it was
best to make Carol stand by the re-
nunciation of his rights One of these
parties is led by Premier Averecu and
the other by forme9 President Ba-
tiano. Both are of equal stength and
both are said to fear the consequences
of Carols return.
Last January parliament passed an
act accepting Carols decision to give
up the rights to the throne rather than
the woman of his choice. The act
named his five-year-old son, Prince
Miachael, born of Carols marriage to
Princess Helen of Greece, as heir ap-
parent council of three regents
was then named to rule in the event of
Ferdinand's death until Prince Michael
should reach his majority.
The French surgeon and cancer spe-
cialist, Professor Lecene, left for Bu-
charest tonight, having been summoned
by Dr. Roggot, French radiologist, who
arrived yesterday at the Rumanian
capital While the king is known to
be a sufferer from cancer, his exact
condition is uncertain. Official circles
in Bucharest have constantly main
tanned that it is not serious; they have
taken occasion frequently to deny
alarming reports disseminated from
neighboring countries.

HEBER SPRINGS, Ark, Nov. "a
Eight hundred homeless persons
most of them without sufficient
clothing, suffered today as a severe
cold wave hit Heber Springs, thirty
six hours after two tornadoes al.
most demolished the town and killed
twenty-five of it's inhabitants.
There has been no water in the
town since Thursday, thereby max
ing necessary orders prohibiting
fires in even the few houses left
standing.
Scenes of almost indescribable suf-
fering and pathos were enacted upon
the debris Uttered streets today.
Frantic mothers in search of missing
children, doctors giving treatment in
rude shelters and wagons taking the
place of hearses, all are to be seen.
The courthouse is being ed as a
medical dressing room, all undertake
ing parlors are filled to capacity and
streets are strewn with dead animals.
Survivors search for traces of their
belongings in the tangled masses of
splintered wood and twisted iron
which now sprawl over the territory
formerly occupied by a prosperous
little farming town.
Some bankers declare that the
town is completely ruined and not
worth rehabilitating. Others more
optimistic, say that Heber Springs
has been set back twenty-five years.
Other officials who announced they
have the situation well in hand,
said today they expected to have all
twenty-five victims buried by night
fall The burying goes on in shifts
with squads of men digging graves
in the frozen soil. There are no
burial services, only a small group
of women, who go from funeral to
funeral, singing.
