Standard of New Jersey expects to

its general expansion program.
Under the reimbursement program,
the Standard of New Jersey-now the

units which will comprise the parent
company.
Each subsidiary will be managed by
the board of directors of the parent

complete Reconsideration of the Stand

first step in this direction has heen
taken with organization of the Stand

Although no statement regarding

Times says it has learned that the re-
adjustment of the company's operat-

Under the plan separate units of
the parent company will control pro-
ducing, marketing, domestic transpor-
ration and export activities, and Just

Of President

RAPID CITY, S. D., July 28 G0-
The drum fire OF politics sounded
almost within ear-Shot of President

Sam McKelvie, former governor OF
Nebraska, assailed some of the farm
relief policies of Frank O. LoWden,
who has been mentioned as cam

nomination
Mr. McKelvie who is publisher OF

Mr. NIcKelvie had been guest at

since entering the White House, to
the home of an individual.
McKelvie called at the executive
offices today before going tc lunch

Mr.. Coolidge added another en-

Representative Williamson OF this

"A irplanes Join In
Search of Tuo Men
Lost in Yuma Desert

YUMA, Ariz., July a28, R-Out in
the trackleSS desert of central Yuma
county today the airplane and the
saddle horse-the new and the old
means of travel-Were serving a COM
mon purpose in the search for two
men who have been lost for days and
for whom every hour lesSensN the
chance for survival.
Under blistering sun, desert men,
some afoot, some on horseback, cir
cled in an ever widening radius, while
overhead two United States naval air
planes skinned low, carrying five men
who scanned the dry washes and ar
royos with field glasses in the hope of
locating the missing pair.
The airplanes came to Yuma this
forenoon, at the request of the Sher-
iff's office, delayed long enough to
refuel and started for the desert, with
Deputy Sheriff Jack Doolittle as a
passenger to direct the search
At dawn this morning Sheriff Jim
Chappell, veteran desert tracker and
Undersheriff Bert Smith joined the
little group of anxious mining men
who were awaiting them at Palomas,
65 miles east of here, to lead the
search for Harry NcEanee who has
been lost since Monday in the vicinity
of the EmgasSer mine.
The arrival of the planes made pos
sible a renewal of the hunt for Andrew
ArsenauIt, 30, Wellton, Ariz., mining
man, who has been lost in the Castle
Dome country, SO miles northwest of
here, since a week ago today. A five
day search by a dozen men afOot and
on horseback was abandoned yester-
day as hopeless.
NTcEanee is an old timer in the Pa
Tomas country, having prospected in
the region for nearly 80 years and
those who know him believe that he
either was a victim of SunStroke or
that he fell and injured himself
In charge of the naval planes is

There is no means of communica-

late tonight, but unless the search to-
day has been successful, the sheriff's

KILLED
IN EARTHQUAKE
INCHIN A,SAID
Worlds Greatest Catas-
trOphe Occurs in Remote
Province in May

LONDON, July % (P)-What is
considered as without doubt one Of
the worlds greatest catastrophes oc-
province of Kansu, China, when towns
and cities were leveled by great
earthquake, with the casualties
placed as high as 100000.
The Westminster Gazette'S Shang-
hal correspondent sends the first
detailed news of the earthquake,
which came in the form of letter
from Monsi9nor Buddenbrock, vicar
apostoline Of the Sseyl mission at
LanchoW, Kansu. No report Of the
catastrophe previously had reached
Shanghai owing to the total destruc-
ton of telegrapflic and postal services.
Monsignor Buddenbrock described
how the cities of Sisiang, LiangchoW
and Kulang were wiped out in the
twinkling of an eye. At Liangchow
alone, he says, at least 10000 were
killed. The city Of Tumentse was
completely wrecked and buried be-
meath a moving mountain.
Missionaries estimates place the
casualties as high as 100000 and the
suffering of the survivors is de-
clared to have been indescribable.
Monsignor Buddenbrock tells a
stirring story Of how the quake at
Sisiang occurred during the celebra-
ton of mass Immediately after the
conservation, terrible subterranean
rumblings were heard. Dozens oil
worshippers, including the mother
superior, were buried when the church
suddenly collapsed. Priests worked
franticaIly to rescue the living an6
administer the sacrament to the dy-
ing.

When the cabin is pumped out so it

Early tonight % bodies had been

his statement partly on an investiga-

PHOENIX, Ariz., July % R)-
Rumors Of a compromise over high
way matters between majority forces
and the administration were current
at the capitol today, when admins
tration men vouchsafed the opinion
that legislative committees now in
Prescott will present a highway bill
to both houses next Monday which
will be acceptable to Governor Hunt
Governor Hunt, who is on a TRIP
to the Fort Huachuca military post
could not be reached for statement
and the only announcement from
majority leaders is that contained in
press dispatches from Prescott, where
senate committee of three ano
members of the house appropriations
committee, are busy revamping the
vetoed highways bill of the regular
session.
Prior to their departure for Pres
colt late yesterday majority members
of the legislature said they woule
draw up bill providing payment oi
the creditors of the highway depart
ment through commission, which
would be established along lines very
similar to those provided in the
original majority highway measure.
Administration informants at th'
state capitol declared the governor
had agreed on certain points witt
the majority and that it was probable
the new highway bill, known as hous'
bill 25 and senate bill l, would b
satisfactory to him.
However, it was explained, fourth
special session may be necessary be
fore actual adoption of measure
providing for payment of creditors

of highway commission of five mem
