AIRPLANE TAXI
SEEN AS NEXT
AVIATION STEP
U. S. Report Shows Interest
in Flying Scared After
-Lindbergh's Hop.
BY LEO R. SACK

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1O.-"Cleve-
land, James"
With the same nonchalance that
he tells the chauffeur to drive him
home the busy business man of
the future will direct his pilot to
start the motor and hop off for
York, or Cincinnati.
This is predicted by Clarence M.
Young, director of aeronautics Of
the Department of Commerce, in
his annual report to Congress.
Just as luxurious airplanes travel
ing on schedule are flying from Ber-
lin to Paris to London, and other
European centers, Young sees the
time not far distant when the Unit
ed States will be network of
charted and Illuminated airways.
Sees Air TaxiS
There will be "taxip airplanes and
luxurious pleasure planes, types of
which now are making their ap-
pearance in New York, Washington
and other cities. The danger fac
tor will be no greater than in auto
mobiles, according to this Govern
lnent official.
Although the United States has
been slow in its development of
civil aeronautics and has fallen be-
hind Europe; the nation now is go
Ing ahead at top speed, the report
shows.
Airplane construction in the fiscal
year which ended June 80, was more
than $4,000, 000-sixty per cent in
crease over 1925. And since June
80, the pace is even faster.
Lindbergh's fight across the At
lantic and the subsequent hops of
other trans-oceanic f1iers have
stirred the American Imagination
with the result that the aviation in
dustry is: experiencing real revival.
All airplane factories are heavily
booked with orders. New type
planes are replacing the war sur
plus types which had been doing
service until recently.
New air routes are being charted
in all parts of the country; cities
are vieing with one another in the
construction of the most improved
airports.
tt is estimated that by the end
Of 1928 a thousand airports will be
In operation, a large percentage Of
them municipal. Numerous cities
and towns are being unmarked, one
company alone having painted city
names on more than 1000 of its
stations.

her from side to side.
isn't that kind of hard on you,
Calvin?" she asked as the procession
tumbled on it's way up the hill,
"Oh, no." Mr.. Coolidge replied, II
like the exercise"
Camera men rushed from hillside
to crag as the drive proceeded, catch
ing this view of the president from
all angles, and he laid a hand SO
hard on the rear of the wagon,
helping the horses pull their load,
that his shirt and suspenders showed
belo whis vest Mrs Coolidge took
on slightly worried expression, as
if she felt such strenuous exercise
might have dire consequences.
Mr.. Coolidge, however, appeared to
enjoy the event as much as any OF
his party of 80 which followed him
closely on foot and in straw-laden
lumber wagons.
Finally, after an hours ride, the
president and Mrs. Coolidge reached
the McKelvie camp. The former
governor had met them at the station
to direct them into the Businesses of
the mountain, and Mrs. McKelvie
greeted her distinguished guests as
they reached the spacious log cabin
which nestles among pine trees and
close by a swiftly moving creek.
Hello, dear" Mrs. Coolidge greeted
her hostess. I'm simply delighted to
be here, and what a beautiful and
interesting drive that was. It was
SO much fun"
The president merely said: "How
do you do" but smiled seemingly in
agreement with Mrs. Coolidge's senti-
mertS.
A luncheon table filled with all
manner of picnic food awaited them,
but it was-.not long after he had
eaten that the president put on his
hip boots, selected rod and reel,
and virtually slid down the mountain
side to Slate Creek.
But the rain of the night before
proved too big an obstacle for sue
cessiul angling and the muddy water
today succeeded in keeping its sporty
occupants from nibbling at the presi-
dental hook.
The journey to Mystic City from
Rapid City, to where Mr.. and Mrs.
Coolidge had motored from the sum-
mer white house, was made up a
railroad line which runs through
Rapid canyon.
AS the liCGle train puffed its way
among the hills and over streams,
the president watched with great in
terest the scene of beauty which
stretched up from him on both sides.
His train seemed almost like a toy,
jerking along the narrow valley where
steep cliffs rose as far as the eye
could see.
At various little hamlets along the
lines, natives and summer residents
who find contentment in this section
during their vacation gathered to
wave hand as Mr.. Coolidge's open
Cal went by.
At last a long bend in the line
disclosed the tiny village of Mystic

BUENOS AIRES, July %, R-All

BuenoS Aires, including the United
States embassy and the home of
Charge d'AffaireS P. l.. Gable, we're
under heavy guard today as result
of the explosion of a bomb at the
statue of George Washington last
night which is attributed to Sacco-
Vanzetti sylnpathizers.
Police this afternoon raided several
radical centeUs and arrested sew
eral men for examination. The chief
of police, however, said that it would
be most difficult to find the guilty
men as attempts at bombings usually
are committed with the utmost Sc
crecy. He added that nothing would
be left undone to discover the per-
petrators.
The unexploded bomb, which was
found in front of the Ford automo-
bile agency, was wrapped in news
papers printed in Italian and contain
ing articles concerning the Sacco-
Vanzetti trial.

AIMEE'S MOTHER
IS ELIMINATED
TEMPLE
Church Members Insurrec-
ton Leads To Mrs. Ken
nedy's Retirement

LOS ANGELES, July 23R)-The
Angelus Temple insurrection was
quelled temporarily today by the re-
turn of the church's evangelist leader,
Aimee Semple Mcpherson, and her
immediate announcement that her
mother, Mrs. Minnie Kennedy, prin-
cipal center of the storm, was re-
placed by Rev. G. E. Jaynes as busi-
ness manager.
The insurrection Of a large num-
Der of the church members, led by
Rev. Jaynes, was due to their objec-
tions to the control of Mrs. Kennedy
of church finances and it's routine
affairs. She announced three days
ago, when it became known that her
daughter had been srecalled imme-
diately from an uncompleted revival
campaign in Illinois, that she would
sever all official connection with the
church when the evangelist arrived
here.
Mrs. Mcpherson did not deny that
she had by telegram authorized Rev.
Jaynes to represent her in the con-
troversy and to take charge of all
church records, books, monies and
collections.
Concerning her difficulties with her
mother Mrs. Mcpherson declined to
be quoted, saying only Mother is
my mother, and even if these things
were true I could not say anything
about them"
The evangelist stated that she would
return to preach in the temple to-
morrow
An ultimatum that Mrs. Kennedy
remove herself from the temple home
and church affairs tomorrow, leaving
for vacation in Alaska or any dis
tant point, was issued by Mrs. Nc
Pherson to her mother this after
noon, the latter, tearfully and ap-
parently brokenhearted, admitted to-
night. She stood beside the dining
room table at the temple home, on
which was the mute evidence of her
half packed suitcase.
Mrs. Kennedy said her evangelist
daughter threatened that otherwise
she would return to Alton, Ill, at
once and for all, there to resume her
revival work, and declared that she
already had wired Alton representa-

New England Fog Disrupts

Atlantic Ace Makes Perfect
Landing On New Hamp-
shire Field

CONCORD, N. H, July % Up
A New England fog today accom-
plished what the Atlantic ocean fall
ed to do and disrupted the schedule
of Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh. 1t
blocked the path of the flying youth
on short 100-mile hop from Bos-
ton to Portland, Me-. forcing him
inland to Concord, N. H., where he
landed after five hours of wander
ing in the murky air. He will re-
sumo his flight to the Main city to-
morrow morning. -. -.
Next to regret over disappointing
his Portland hosts, who had gather
ed to welcome him this afternoon,
Lindbergh's chief concern on reach
ing here was solicittide for his plane,
The Spirit of st. Louis. His first
duty was to see the Spirit OF ST.
Louis safely under cover. Then he
accepted an invitation to spend the
night at the home of Colonel Charles
H. Mason, director of the organized
reserve in New Hampshire.
Taking off from the Boston air
port at 1885 o'clock when conditions
looked far from cheering. Lindbergh
flew north to Nashua, NJ H., and
then turned east to Portland, find
ing fog all the way. He was over
Portland about 4 o'clock. but fog and
heavy rain prevented him from Sec
ing the ground. After many excur-
sions seeking a hole in the fog, he
was forced to turn westward.
At $40 o'clock he passed over the
Concord airport proceeding about
las miles before he turned and
made for the landing field The
Spirit of st. Louis was brought to a
perfect landing at 5:35 o'clock.
In the meantime, the report had
gone out that the flier had landed
safely 20 minutes before in a field
at Dayton, Me- It was learned later
that an army biplane had been
forced down by the fog at that
place.
The flier communicated with Port
land soon after landing in order to
plans for his visit to that
city. He will fly to Portland TO-
weather permitting He was
to have visited Concord on Monday.

MYSTIC, S. D., July % (H9-In the
heart of the Black Hills, near the
head of one of the most picturesque
canyons, President Coolidge today cast
trout line into a tumbling creek
and later panned for gold which SO
years ago made this canyon famous.
Perched on crags overhanging slate
canyon and on other points of want
age, camera men worked busily to
record the first pictures ever made
OF Mr.. Coolidge fishing, but when the
waters, made muddy by an all night
rain, declined to yield it's quarry,
the president turned to Joe Bullish,
a native prospector, for detailed in
Structions on how to pan gold.
After an hour or more at Slate
Greek, to which he travelled nearly
70 miles from the summer, white
house, huge sparkle of the metal
came from the presidents pan, and he
smiled broadly as Mrs. Coolidge looked
on and congratulated him on his
good fortune.
The President and Mrs. Coolidge
came to the summer lodge of Sam
R. ATcKelvie, former governor of
Nebraska, who is now publisher of
the Nebraska Farmer, over tortuous
mountain trail which led two and a
half miles into dense pine forests
from Mystic The last stages of the
journey were made in rumbling
lumber wagon drawn by two heavy
farm horses, but when the animals
puffed from the long, hard pull the
president stepped down, took his coat
off and in his shirt sleeves helped
push the wagon up the hill.
The road was rocky and uncertain.
Rain caused streams OF water to run
down the ruts, but for nearly mile

way along the trail while Mrs. Cool

NO COMPROMISE,
NO NAVAL PACT
SAYS CAPITAL
Washington Government Is
Determined TO Maintain
Its Position

WASHINGTON, July %, R)-Press
reports from London indicating that
the British cabinet had given complete
approval to the attitude of the British
delegation at the Geneva three-pow-
er naval limitation conference evoked
no comment in official quarters to-
day aside from the suggestion that if
there were to be no compromises at
Geneva, obviously there could be no
agreement.
Up to the time the state department
closed over the weekend it was said
authoritatively that no report had been
received from the London embassy as
to the action determined upon by the
cabinet in it's conferences with w. c..
Bridgeman and Earl Cecil. There was
no suggestion, however, that Washing.
ton officials were deeply concerned over
the reports that the cabinet was pre-
pared to stand squarely behind the
cruiser tonnage figures advanced by
the delegation at Geneva and which
the United States regards as alto
gether excessive.
The Washington government is
equally determined to maintain it's
position on the essential points of
parity in fact with British naval
strength and the right to construct
vessels suitable for it's own needs both
in size and armament. The only ele-
ment of the cruiser problem in which
there appears to be any prospect OF
elasticity at Geneva SO far as the
American delegation is concerned is
on the question OF the proportion of
cruiser tonnage which might go into
If it had been found possible at
ships of 10000 tons displacement.
Geneva to agree on total tonnage
cruiser limitation figure, it seems
quite probable that the Washington
government would have been willing to
find also satisfactory limit on the
number of 10000 tonners each gov
ernment should possess. There is no
prospect, however, that it will accept
any suggestion of a restriction to six
inch guns in size for vessels smaller
than 10000 tonners.
In view of this understanding OF the
attitude of the Washington govern
ment which has grown even more
fixed during the recess of the Geneva
meetings, the reported determination
of the British cabinet to insist that it
must be free to construct such cruis-
er tonnage as admiralty plans require
for an understanding when the Geneva
discussions are resumed next week.
Washington officials would not
make any prediction, however, as to
when the Geneva conference might be
adjourned or what the form OF ad-
iOurnment would be-
