AIR RACE STILL.
"A PROBABILITY

WINDSOR, Ont, Aug. 20 F-The
weather seemed to be conspiring today
with Phil Wood and Duke" Schiller,
pilot of the monoplane Royal Wind
sor, to make their dream of trans
Atlantic air marathon come true, a
dream that seemed to go glimmering
when the rival plane, Sir John
CARING, took off from London, Ont,
for London, Eng, this morning.
Wood and Schiller had hoped for
a three-cornered race, but all hope
of that was lost when Edward F..
Schlee and William S. Brock hoped
off from Harbor Grace Saturday, to
land at London yesterday and pro-
ceed to Munich today.
That left only the Sir John CARING
as a potential rival for Wood and
Schiller. The Sir John CARING took
off from London, Ont, at $3.50 o'clock
this morning. with the Royal Windsor
still unready.
But over Lake Ontario, Terry Tully
and James Medcalf, the pilots, ran
into dirty weather that caused them
to turn back to their starting point
With the return of the Sir Jonn
CARING to London, Ont, after five
hours and ten minutes in the air,
the race became a real likelihood
again.
It was considered probable that
if the weather was good tomorrow
the dawn would see both ships cutt-
ing their way toward the rising sun.

settlement of the power question If

dam bill can be passed without it.
Immediately the bill is passed, he
explained, California interests are
anxious to purchase power generated
by the dam from the secretary Of the
interior, who under the terms OF the
measure is authorized to sell it.. Ne
vada, he contended, is entitled to half
the power and Arizona to the other
half, inasmuch as the dam would be
built on their soil and would i'm
pound their waters.
Francis Wilson characterized the
resolution as "the magma charta OF
states rights of the seven states IN

states rights would be one Of the

PARIS, Aug. % CP-Charles A..
Levine's surprising jump today from
lie Bourget flying field here to
London. in his transatlantic air
plane Columbia, was the talk OF
Paris tonight.
All the afternoon newspapers strung
great headlines across their front
pages to let the public know the
Columbia had flown from her coop,
leaving Maurice Drouhin, the French
aviator, behind with no present
means of achieving his ambition to
fly to New York. Even those who
have openly expressed a dislike of
Mr.. Levine's methods in getting ready
for the return flight. complimenteG
him on his cleverness in slipping
away unannounced as pilot of the
plane which he was supposed to
fly only as passenger.
There was CONSERVATION among the
pilots at LIE Bourget when they
learned the American business man
had gone away in the Columbia.
In the fraternity of French airmen
it had been more or less understood
when Levine and Drouhin first began
to disagree that none but Drouhin
be "allowed to take the Columbia
off the field" Other fliers, it was
said, would see to that.
A few minutes after Levine took
to the air today, two French pilots,
Delage and Bodin, set out with the
avowed intention of catching him.
They failed, however, and Mr.. Levine
went straight to London.
Drounin announced he was think
ing of suing Levine in America for
breach of contract. Some of his
sympathizers suggested he take ans
other airplane and go to London TO
see Levine but Drouhin replied he
feared he would feel like killing"
Levine if they met today.
Before leaving LIE Bourget, Drouhin
sat taking for a while in luxurious
limousine with Miss Mabel Boil, the
American heiress, who has been saying
she wants somebody to take her to
the United States in an airplane.

GRECO-CARRILLO
TRIAL MAY NOT
COMMENCE TODAY
Postponement Until To
morrow Indicated

The trial Of Calogero Greco and
Donate Garlic, anti-fascists, charg-
ed with the murder of two fascists
last Decoration Day in the Bronx,
salated to start this morning before
Judge Cohn in the Bronx County
Court, may be postponed until tomor-
row, it was learned yesterday.
The reason for the possible post
ponement is the trial Of Mario Giletti
who is on trial before the same Judge
on charge Of shooting two fascists
on Jan. 25. The case will go to the
Jury this morning end it is doubted
if decision will be reached in time
to start the Greco-CarriIlo case to-
day. 1t will begin tomorrow morn
ing, at the latest. it is believed.
Since Summer.
Greco and Garlic have been in the
Bronx County Jail since July II,
when they were taken into custody
on the murder charges. The fascists
killed are Joseph Carisi and Nicholas
Amorrosa. It is believed in many
circles that the two fascists were kill
ed by rival group Of Mussolini's
organization.
Clarence Darrow heads the legal
battery that will defend the two
framed up workers. The associate
attorneys are Newman Levy and
Isaac Shorr.
Defense Is Active.
A special defense committee as the
Greco-Carrillo Defense League had
been. organized to coordinate the de-
Tense work. Felipe Greco, brother of
one of the two defendants is secre-
tary The International Labor De-
Tense is also active in the defense
activities. James P. Cannon, national
secretary has modified the branches
Of the organization throughout the
country to help in the work.
According to many people the
Greco-Carrillo case has many of the
earmarks of another Sacco-Vanzetti
frame-up. 1t is virtually admitted
that the fascist government of italy
is active in the present prosecution.

union found itself in as a result both
Of the attacks of the mine bosses and

saved from the same fate and called
upon those present and the forces
represented there to get behind the
miners strike. The delegates and
visitors to the conference responded
by pledging over fifteen hundred dol

Boston Jury Frees
8 SympathizorS Of

BOSTON. Mass, Dec. Am i'm
promptu reception was held in the
corridor Of the Supreme Court when
the verdict which acquitted Sacco-
Vanzetti sympathizers. Powers Hap
good and Cosmo Carvotta had been
accused of disturbing the peace" at
a protest meeting on the Boston Com
mon.
The seven who participated in the
death march, picketing the State
House, were also freed. They are
John Dos Passos, John Howard Law
son, playwrights; Mother Ella Reeve
Bloor, labor leader; Edna St. Vincent
Millay, poet; Ellen Hayes, former
WELLESLEY professor; Catherine Hunt
ington, George Kraska and George L.
Teeple.
John Dos Passos, who was recently
acquitted by Boston jury of ''loiter-
ing" together with six others because
they picketed the State House on the
eve of Sacco and Vanzetti's murder
said, I'D rather spend week in jail
than in Boston courtroom"
I'm spite of an excellent speech
made by Arthur Garfield Hays, and
an extremely comic outburst by Dis
trict Attorney Doyle" continued the
director of the New Playwrights' The
atre, who was like. all the district
attorneys in crook melodramas, the
trial lasted too long to be a good
show.
THE verdict Of not guilty was a
surprise to everybody, particularly to
the defendants, as the cards, after
the judges charge to the jury, seemed
pretty well stacked against them.
"It showed that public opinion in
Boston is changing little about the
Sacco-Vanzetti executions. 80.
John Howard Lawson, who was also
acquitted, said, at seems sufficiently
ridiculous in itself to spend a whole
week in solemn courtroom, arguing
about riot and charge of 'saun-
tering and lettering, when it is
patiently apparent to any reasoning
person that no such thing occurred,
but at the end of the week, the two
juries disregarded technicalities and
justified the principle that people
have free right to assemble and pro-
test in any cause, popular or I'M
popular in spite of whatever learned
judges and equally learned cops may
have to offer to the contrary"

will be produced at the New Play
