FLYER TO LAND
SHIP HERE WITH
ENGINE CUT OFF

George Faw, we'll known aviStion
pilot who flew from the local field
with passengers in October, dropped
lightly down here again last evening
in his trim Eagle Rock plane and an
nounced that on Sunday afternoon he
will demonstrate that a plane in the
air with a dead" motor is safe.
Faw, licensed pilot and one who
says that it is nothing short Of Grim
inal for a. flyer to do stunts with pas
sengers aboard, is at the same time @
stunt flyer of some reputation. He
points out that the general public is
under the impression thai when an
airplane motor stops while the ship is
in the air the machine Immediately
falls to earth.
On Sunday, at the local field, Flaw
will take his plane high over Douglas,
cut off his motor and make landing
on the field to demonstrate to the
public what every flyer knows, that
plane can be landed safely even when
the engine is entirely out of order,
provided there is a smooth bit of land
anywhere near on which to land.
The pilot will carry passengers here
over the week. end, working in con-
junction with The Munsell-Brill flying
service which has now completed the
repair to the tail of their plane which
was caught on rock at the field.
Both planes will be in service all day
today and tomorrow. On Sunday night

''This tends first 10 equalize the tax
burden of business conducted by in
diyiduals, partnerships and corpora
tions, whose net profit is $4,000, is
about S per cent. The rate under this
bill on corporations with incomes of
$4,000 also is, 5 per cent.

the tax income would be greatly

the tax income would be greatly
reduced.
Inasmuch as treasury estimates fix
the surplus for the current fiscal year
at $252,O0O,O0O, of which $75,0OO,0O0
will be homecoming, he considers
that a tax reduction of $225,00O,O0O
is adequate and safe.
He believes that taxes should be
reduced as far as is practicable,
but he considers it unwise for any
business, even one which is handling
transactions aggregating $4,000, 900 600,
to operate in such way as tc inn
pair the chances for at least a small
surplus.

WARMING ISSUED
CONTINUED from Page One)

Mr.. COolidge's desire to hold tax
reduction to 1925 100000 already has
rounded up q champion in the senate
in Chairman SmoOt, of the finance
committee, who announced today
that he will make every effort to
cut down the figure approved by
the house. Senator Simmons, OF
North Carolina, ranking democrat on
the committee, declared simultan-
eously, however, without committing
himself to any definite program. that
he believes a reduction OF $400, 900 900
feasible.
Although there was no suggestion
at the White House. that the preSi-
dent had made up his mind to veto
the bill, If the reduction is in excess
of the treasury figure, or too much
out of line with Mr.. MELONS recon-
mendations, it was apparent that
some leaders in congress are fearful
Of such action Representative Tilson,
the republican house leader who was
a White House caller today, was
among those who declared they would
not be surprised if Mr.. Coolidge sent
back bill calling for a reduction
of taxes materially above $225, 10000.
The president was represented at
the White House as being particularly
eager to hold down the total reduc-
ton because there is no certainty as
to what the future has in store He
believes that it is probable that the
country will continue to prosper and
that the revenues of the government
would therefore be accelerated. On
the other hand, he also has taken
into consideration the possibility OF
business depression in which case

States and Mexico. Even today air.
planes can be flown at no greater
expense than automobiles can be
driven and an airplane will outlast an
automobile.
'The Spirit OF ST. Louis has flown
$4,000 miles, practically with no over
haul or replacement, only a few minor
parts having been replaced.
"In the future we will be flying
regularly between Mexico and the
United States. BY the time you are
ready to travel there will be regular
air lines.
"Your country here is ideally
situated for flying and I know you
will be, availing yourselves Of this
modern means OF transportation.
A committee representing the
chamber of deputies and the. senate
called at the embassy today to thank
Lindbergh formally for his visit tG
congress yesterday, when he received
honors never before given foreigner
and rarely extended to Mexicans.
The colonel, with the ambassador
at his side, met the committee tc.

felt honored in honoring him. Lind
bergh replied that he appreciated the
expression more than he could say
and thanked the committee for it's
courtesy in coming to see him.

him hung up the receiver. The

Nests IL, Safe Place

The wood duck is wise in choice
Of nest sites. She lays her eggs
in holes In trees from four to forty
feet above the ground, says Nature
Magazine. How are the ducklings
going to get out of the nest cav
ity, which Is sometimes three or
four feet deep? Having escaped
from the hole, how are they to get
safely down to the ground without
falling and breaking their necks2
And finally, having reached the
ground intact, how are they to
reach the nearest stream or pond?
Some say that the mother duck
dies and carries the ducklings on
her back. Others state that the
young are carried one at time in
her bill as q mother cat carries her
kittens, others claim the ducklings
scramble out Of the nest and fall
to the ground or into the water as
the case may be.

Theories Proved BY
Giants of Intellect

Three notable figures in science,
Copernicus, Kepler and Newton,
stand for the three most far-reach-
ing generalizations known In the
history Of human intellect.
Copernicus, entirely nnaided,
worked out the theory that the
earth moved around the sun, In
stead of the sun moving around the
earth. That was In 1881. Then
in 1909 Kepler announced that the
earth and other planets moved
around the sun In elliptical orbits,
and stated the laws Of motion that
determined it.
Then in 1887 came Newton with
the "Principia" and "Gravitation,
and the mechanism of the heavens
was complete. Ever since the pub
'lication Of Copernicus' book, 1875
years before, the existence of some
kind of force had been thought of
as accounting for the movements
of the planets, but it was left to
Newton to demonstrate what that
force was. He spent twenty years
studying the problem before he was
able to. give to the world his con-
clusion.--Kansas City Star.
