morning.
1t was stated that the cause of
Mr.. Gary's death was chronic myo-

for about a month. At the offices of
the steel corporation the exact time
Of death was placed at $40 o'clock.
Beyond that bare announcement it
was said no details would be avail

On the 25th of July. Mr.. Gary,
who at that time had been ill for
about u week, was reported ION the
mend" and. it was expected at that
time that he would return to his

One of Mr.. Gary's last public acts
was on the 18th of June when by
passing his hand over an electrically
sensitized mechanism he set in mo-
ton the gigantic electrified Home
stead steel plant near Pittsburgh.
To perform this operation he sat
in his office at II Broadway and the
feat involved building up minute

Coolidge Saving nets

Costs Slashed Everywhere

Capital

Washington. Aug. is UP)-The
economy policy of the Coolidge ad-
ministration resulted in the govern
ment conducting its business at a
lower cost during the last fiscal year,
Director of Budget Lord announced
today in his annual report.
The loyal order of woodpeckers"
the term given federal employees
by General Lord because they peck
here and there to cut expenses-sav-
ed the government s91,0OO,OO0 In
cash and many more millions which
would have been spent had not
economy been practiced, the report
said.
Ordinary receipts of the govern
ment for the year ended June 80
totaled 81, l29, 1000 as compared
with 5000 the previous
year. Expenses amounted to 3d.
4t3, 5S4, 900, a decrease of more than
SCI, 100000.

present budget calls for expenditure
Of only s3,2000o0,0 1000. The 1929
budget will not exceed $500. 000,-
600, he predicted.
In his report Lord said the COM
munication services of the govern
ment earned approximately s1.710,-
900 in Il months by handling COM
mercial and federal messages.
Liquidation of surplus property,
standardization of supplies and
equipment, transfer of property from
one department to another and CO.
ordination of work saved the tax
payers millions of dollars in the year,
Lord said.
One of the major economy policies
Of the government was to cut per-
sonnet wherever possible, the report
showed. When it was necessary to
replace an employee who resigned,
appointment was made at lower
wage scale if possible.
The government also got cut"
from the telephone company at
Washington. The treasury collected
two cents on every nickel call made
from a pay station located in a fed
eral building.
Other economies included reduc-
ing expense accounts. using paper on
both sides, sharpening pencils until
they were only an inch long, return
ing pay envelopes SO they could be
used twice. turning typewriter rib
hons over so they would last longer.
and long list of other things the
''woodpeckers" practiced.
General Lord recommended that
the next congress enact legislation
CO. ordinating the activities of the
many border patrols. He also urg-
ed enactment of the federal building
program which would ultimately
save the government millions now
spent for rent.

Dessau. Germany. Aug. Is Up
The first attempt of Germany to ne
gotiate the westward course Of the
transatlantic flying lane from Eu-
rope to America came to an unsuc-
cessful and unexpected end this
afternoon when the German Junk
ers monoplane Bremen returned to
the flying field here baffled by
storm and bad weather.
The Bremen landed safely after
having been twenty-five hours in the
air bucking storms the like of which
were said to have been unknown in
recent aviation. The Junkers plane
came down at AGO o'clock this aft
ernoon. German time.
The return Of the Bremen caused
great surprise as her approach had
been unheralded. the plane not
having been sighted while flying
above Germany because of the
heavy clouds and rain.
Country Disappointed.
Disappointment over the Brem-
ems return was all the greater be-
cause the North German Lloyd re-
ccived a wireless from the steam
ship Columbus this morning saying
the weather was beautiful west of
Ireland: hence it was thought that
the monoplane was past the bad
weather zone.
The homeward flight was made
under full power. While crossing
the North Sea the Bremen encour-
tered a terrific electrical storm
which increased in fury and com
PEELED the filters to give up any hope
of again heading westward, and to
return to Dessau.
The flight to Dessau was fraught
with great peril at times. Because
of storm the plane was occasion
ally only six or seven feet above
the round and had to dodge oh
stacles that threatened to wreck
her.
Plane Tninjured.
Although the hope of German air
conquest has been dashed for the
time being, some consolation Is de-
rived from the fact that the Bremen
rode the storms unscathed and the
pilots were lauded for keeping her
in the air until she reached her
home port.
The pilots Of the Bremen and F.u-
ropa will now enjoy period OF rest
during a thorough inspection Of the
Bremen and further dispositions re-
specting the selection of third
plane to replace the crippled Euro
pa, pending further decision re-
garding a transatlantic flight.
