of River Valley.

By United Press -1,
motor boats, horses, rowboats and
Just plain man power were used to
deliver mail during the height OF
the Mississippi flood, w. 1. Glover,
second assistant postmaster general,
said today.
Glover has just returned from the
flood zone, where he studied re-
Mobilization of rural mail routes.
Practically all the mail that &C
cumulated during the height Of the
flood has now been delivered, Clio
yer said, and no additional conges-
ton is expected.
At the beginning of the flood
Glover dispatched superintendent
to key positions and they directed
the delivery of the mails using what
ever means they could obtain.
ct was expensive, but we deliv-
cred" Glover said. 1.-THE uncer-
tainty was the greatest trouble. One
day mail could be delivered over a
route by truck and the next day it
would be necessary to use motor
boat or a rowboat.
Sometimes a horse would be
needed, or, if the road was impass-
able for horses, oftentimes a mail
man would start out on foot.
zone route set a record. The mail
started in a truck, was transferred
to horse, thence to power boat,
then a motor boat and finally man
had to transport it the remainder
of the distance"

BIZ -YimCs Special
WASHINGTON, June "a 100
hour nonstop fight may be the
next big aviation development, &C
cording to Maj. w. G, Kilner, execu-
tive officer of the army air corps.
The Wrights. builders of the
motors carried in the Lindbergh and
Chamberlin airplanes which sue
cessfully hoped the Atlantic, have
tried out on the "block" a new
motor which has gone 100 hours
without stopping and without
trouble.
Lindberg's flying time was thirty
three and one-half hours to Paris,
Chamberlin and Levine were in the
air forty-four hours and thirty-five
minutes en- route to Germany.
Before this o100-hour nonstop
motor can function on what would
be approximately a 10,000-mile voy-
age, at an average speed of 100
miles an hour, it is necessary to de-
velop a ship which will carry the
tremendous quantity Of gasoline
necessary for such a sustained voy-
age" Major Kilner said. Another
development necessary is a fuel
lighter than the present aviation
gasoline"
Major Kilner is one Of the pioneer
aviators of the army and during the
World War he was in charge of the
training overseas of all American
airmen. Lindbergh and Chamberlin
are products of the army training
school at Kelley Field, Texas.

SLAP FOR NEAR

Even Wore Cap Instead of
Plug Hat, Baltimore
Sun CritiCiSeS.
Times WASHINGTON Bureau. -.
1922 Nelc YOrE Arenne


WASHINGTON, June 8.-Did the
President review the fleet Saturday
as the commander-in-chief of the
Navy ought to review it, or did he
not?
This promises to be a mooted
question because Of an article just
published in The Baltimore Sun.
The article criticises the Presi-
dent severely, asserting he wore a
Yachting cap instead of the more
formal silk hat, that he only spent
twenty minutes of the two hours Of
review on the bridge of the May
flower at attention, that he reclined
on a couch on the lower deck in
stead of watching the warships
pass and that he left his more
formal duties to the presidential
yacht captain.
1t is asserted that there is quite
a buzz among navy men at the
manner in which the President
CLOSED over his review.
To the Navy the review by the
President is a big event, for which
there is much preparation. 1t is
formal occasion with everyone from
the highest ranking officer to the
lowest COB on dress parade.
The Navy did its part in carrying
out the formalities, but the Pres
ident failed to his, if one may judge
from the conversation undercurrent.

Lindbergh Felt Fear
During Flying Circus
panying ship.

couldn't find my pilot anywhere.
The kid kept hanging around like
he was looking for someone, and
after while he saw I was about the
only ones left Then he came up
to me and said heSitatingly
care you Captain Vaughn?'
II said that was.
"I'm Lindbergh,' the kid said.
81 looked him over again and said
to myself those fellows down in st.
Louis are slipping me something
If this kid is a pilot I'm horse
But the first time 1 saw him In
the air I knew 1 was wrong. There
never was another like him."
Lindbergh remained with the Fly
ing Circus until late in 1924 when
he decided to take the army train
ing course in aviation and become
a reserve flier.
So, one day, he got into his air
plane and flew to Brooks Field,
Tex, to enroll as a flying cadet.
DiIapidated Bi-PIane
"I remember when he came,' said
Sergeant ID. Wood, of Brooks Field.
"He had an old. dilapidated Stand
ard bi-plane with most of the fabric
gone from the lower half of one
wing. But that didn't seem to
bother Lindbergh any. He handled
it just as we'll as if the wing were
sound.
HE was a quiet, unassuming chap
who seldom went to town and was
always studying"
He completed his primary train
ing at Brooks Field in September,
1924, and went to Kelly Field, San
Antonio, to attend the Advanced
Flying School. 1t was while flying
there that he made the first of his
famous parachute jumps when his
plane was disabled in that most
rare and spectacular of accidents,
AN aerial collision.
II felt slight jolt followed by a
crash" Lindbergh wrote in his Off
cial report of the accident. MY
head was thrown forward against
the cowling and my plane seemed
to turn around and hang nearly
motionless for an instant / closed
the throttle and saw an SE-5 plane
with Lieut.. McAllister in the cock
pit, d few feet on my left. He was
apparently unhurt and getting
ready to jump.
Ships Locked Together
"Our ships we're locked together.
My right wing was folded back. The
ships started to mill around and
the wires began whistling. The
right wing commenced vibrating
and striking my head at the bottom
Of each vibration.
II climbed out and jumped back
wards as far as I could.
ST was afraid the planes might
. fall on me, so I did not pull the cord
of my parachute until I had drop
ped several hundred feet.
u saw Lieut.. McAlliSter floating
above me and the wrecked ships
about 100 yards to one side. 1
watched them until, still locked to-
gether, they crashed in the mes
quite and burst into flames.
although the impact of landing
was too great for me to remain
standing, I landed in ditch at the
edge of the mesquite and was not
injured in any way.
During my descent lost my
goggles, a vest pocket camera which
fitted tightly in my hip pocket, and
the rip cord of the parachute"

FARMERS LOOK
TO Is PER CENT
, VALUATION CUT
State Tax Boards Land
Figures Show 1911 Per-
Cent 0verCharge.

While the first figures garnered
by the State tax board at farm
revaluation hearings indicated that
present assessment was 1911 per
cent greater than "true value" In
diana farm bureau leaders have
harvested "a bushel of figures"
which lead them to believe reduc-
ton Of Is per cent should be made.
1.-THE trouble with the tax board
figures are that they are not deal
ing with 1927" Farm Bureau Secre-
tary l.. l.. Needer said.
1.-THE purpose of that section OF
the Lindley-Shake-J ohnson law,
which provides for 1927 revaluations
is to afford immediate relief to the
farmer.
1.-THE board is taking 1925 and
1926 figures and using them in max
ing estimates, while they should be
confined to 1927 valuations en-
tirely."
9O3 From Sales
The bureau figures include a list
of SO farm sales in Clinton County,
covering three-year period. The
average assessment for this list Is
20 per cent high, figures indicate. A
Grant County list shows that while
1925 sales we're $500 per cent Of as
sessed valuation, the 1927 sales were
81.39 per cent.
There has been depreciation OF
12.1 per cent in valuation since last
year." Needler contends. "The 1925
value was much nearer the assess
ment than now"
AS Well as Sales
The 1927 statute provides that
true cash value must be based on
production income and speculative
value, as we'll as sales, but Needer
contends that this definition was
meant to apply only to the general
revaluation and not the local unit
revaluations being made this year.
The tax board believes true cash
value" should be determined now as
set out in the 1927 statute.
Hearings are being held today at
Martinsville and Friday at Spencer.

ance, as well as being easier on the

improvement over the former meth
cd of printing.
A. G.. CAVENS, Assistant United

down as one who favors the new

tinct contrast on the white of the

the Ionic is the best.
