lists Of the south Was announced TO-
day by spokesman from the An
kuochun, the present organization oI
the allied northern armies.
This organization, the north
erners declare, will surely tuse the
northern armies which nave been
loosely cooperating under the ci-
rect leadership Of ttieir own com-
rnanders and Will arouse a new spirit
which will restore the importance OF
Peking which has been politically
dead for the past year.
The program OF the Ankuochun
leaders, who held q conference III
lesIing & week calls for ad-
nil.istrative reforms iii the civil
rules of the north as well as a
unified command of all the northern
armies All the northern war lorGi
have approved the plan which will
wipe cut The provisional distinctions
between the Shantung,' Chilli and

degree of cohesion which was lack
ing in the old Ankuochun organlzao
ton.

DUTY TOST.|AIE I
IN new HOTEL
L. A. Herring, Former C..
of C. Secretary, Boosts
Project

"In the building of new tourist
hotel Douglas is doing duty not
only to herself but to the state of
Arizona" L. A. Herring, former sec
retary of the Douglas Chamber of
Commerce and Mines, writes w. W..
Windham, Southern Pacific agent
here, from Glendale, Arizona
"In one of the recent issues Of
The Dispatch I read the results of
an interview with you on the sub
ject," Herring continued, land I be-
lieve I should take you to task for
being just a little pessimistic with
regards to the successful financing
of the project.
1T will be done, of course, but
as you say, it is going to require
the unlimited cooperation of not only
those located on G avenue but of
every property owner in the city.
Douglas never yet has fallen down
on proposition that was made a
community affair and I firmly believe
that under the arranged financing
plan the necessary funds will be
Forthcoming "muy pronto" and by
'muy pronto' 1 mean in time for
the hotel to get some of the benefits
of the late winter and early spring
tourist travel, which will be greater
during the coming season than ever
before.
"I had quite long talk with a
party who is interested in the enter
tainment Of eastern visitors and he
is very enthusiastic over the pos
sibility of first class hotel in Doug
las, in fact he is already planning
Ia twice a week sight seeing tour
taking in the southern part OF the
state, which will include Tucson
Nogales and Douglas with side trips
from Nogales and Douglas. He says
he can keep SO room hotel filled
in those cities during the months
/ of November, December, January and
February"
Douglas has the best of either

ST. LOUIS, June II Ca graceful,
silver monoplane, trailed by a work
worn biplane of the United States air
mail service, hummed suddenly out OF
the deep haze hanging over Lambert
st. Louis field at 1882 o'clock this
afternoon and five minutes later Col
onel Charles A. Lindbergh was home.
OF all the planes up to meet the
world acclaimed hero only that piloted
by a buddy of the air mail service,
from which the young history maker
is on leave, was able to find him in
the murky Is miles between the flying
field and st. Louis. 1t was flown by
Philip r. (RedD Love and carried an
Associated Press correspondent as
Messenger. Hundreds OF thousands OF
st. LouisaIls grouped on roofs, river
banks and in open spaces had cheered
Lucky Slim to an echo perhaps
inaudible to him as for 20 minutes he
maneuvered his Spirit of ST. Louis"
over the downtown and residence dis
trict, cavorting in sweeps and sWlrls
of sheer JOY at being again over ms
own home town.
But it remained for love to be the
first TO greet the intrepid king OF the
air and guide him to Lambert-St. Louis
field, where 5000 ran-drenched men
and women, including the world famed
young flier'S mother, Mrs. Evangellne
Lodge Lindnergh, and Dwight Davis,
of st. Louis, Cecretary of war, waited
to greet him.
The crowd, which might well have
numbered 100000. was held to the COM
parative handful by strict injunction
of the arrangements committee to keep
away from the flying field.

youth, who has spread its fame before
the eyes of the world for more than
q month since he arrived here from
San Diego and hopped off for New

Sunday, when all the llonors that a

| had made an especial request that
l do everything in my power to
become better acquainted with Miss
Lincoln, saying that he hoped to
get her to pose for him for a series
of illustrations for which he needed
her type. Yet I knew my mother-in-
law well enough to realize that ]
was jeopardizing my future associa-
ton with Miss Lincoln far less by
my request, in apparent acquiescence
with her opinion, than by defending
the girl.
Mother Graham raised her eyes to
the ceiling, and left them in that
lofty contemplation for a long min
ute. Then she said judicially:
In my opinion. Margaret. that
would be the most foolish thing
you could do. The fact that this
Young woman has taken The Larch-
es and lives in the style she does is
a basis for the argument that no
one knows OF her identity and that
the gang to which she belongs is
composed OF unusually shrewd peo-
pie. perhaps even Of well-born men
and women who have taken this
means of recuperating their for
tunes"
She was so patiently enjoying her
self that, even if it would have
changed her opinion I do not be-
,ieve 7 would have had the heart to
gainsay her.
"By dropping her acquaintance"
she went on. still in the manner of
judge upon the bench hand 'ng
down decision, you not only may
arouse her suspicion that you know
something concerning her, and thus
put her upon her guard. but you
also lose an unparalleled opportun-
ity to share her daily life and per-
laps find out the secret of her or
ganization. No, I should say by all
means go on as you have done IN
every respect. But be careful never
to leave Mary in her company unless
you or Richard or that young Yer
itzen are also of the party"
