could do about it. A digging in" is
as popular as an oldfashioned hang

First the victim is chased into a
deep tunnel. which he himself may
have helped to eXcavate. Then all
his fellows unite in closing up the
tunnel. The victim himself is no
mean digger, but his efforts to extrt-
cate himself are hopeless. 1t Is one
against a dozen or more. The only
thing he can do is to dig deeper into
the ground and eventually he is suf-
focated.

C0SGRAVE REGIME
 IS EXTENDED YEAR
Governments Majority Not to
 Exceed Five Seats

Dublin, Sept. q tP-President cosgrave's Free State government. despite the disappolntirg outcome of the parliam entary elections, in tends 70 carry on with the expec'a- ton Of at least year Of life, In making this announcement, Ernest Blythe, vice president of the coun- ell, stated that a new loan will be tloated in December.
 The ministers. all of whom were reelected are confident, it may bo taken from this, tha- when the new aail conyenes on October II it will approve rha continuance of Nr. Cos grave as president Of the council and that he will accept the man date.
 There is no doubt. observers say, that such an outcome would meet ctth the wishes of rhe business com muni-v throughout the Free State, regardless of political affiliations It is realized, however. that the ad- r2inistratior will have 10 go wafily, and that its success will depend up- on how far it is able to carry with it one or more of the smaller groups n the dail.
 The governments majority. with the support Of both the farmers and independents. would be only five, as Mir. Cosgraye. although elected for two constituSncles, possesses only one vote.
 T. is though that in seeking 70 strengthen its position the admlnis- tration may try 10 attract the sup port Of the lahorites, hitherto reck- oned among the permanent oQposi- ton, but there is nothing definite vet in this regard.
 Tom Johnson, the labor leader las criticized President Cosgrave's action in calling the election as "a grastlv hnnder" The laborites, he vas quoted as adding, would only support any party which turthered the labor program and would op- pose any which attempted to legls- late against labor,
 The position at the moment is, therefore, that Cosgrave IS prepared 70 take the reins with a small ma iority if the dail confirms him fin the presidency. Tn the contrary event, De Valera is ready 10 accept the post.

OLD GLORY GOING % MILES AT FALL
(Continued From First Page)

nett, Canadian f7ier representing tht government Of Newfoundland, and ! Hector Alexander, engineer who ! helped prepare the Old Glory tor is flight, on the steamer Silver City 10 meet the steamer Kyle, which re- covered the wreckage. 4 report by I Bennett says:
 The rescued parts consist Of the center portion Of the wing fairly in- | tact, containing three petrol tanks. From the center portion, extending from front to rear, spars in both di- rections are all broken off inside the wing tips. The left tire. inflated, was attached. The landing and two fly ing struts were attached 10 the wing, but severed from the fuselace.
 The only remaining part Of the undercarriage Was the vertical shock absorher strut The fuselage had broken from the wing below the fittings, leaving part Of the tubular framework attached, Tangled cables, tubes, etc, have no indication of the reason for the descent. There is considerable evidence that the ma chine was greatly buffeted by the sea after landing.
 "The only point emerging from the examination appears 10 be that the machine made it's first contact with the water with the right wheel and it IS impossible 10 determine whether the destruction was due mainly to the impact or to the subsequent ac- tion Of the sea.
 From the wrecIlago picked up by the steamship Kyle I consider it quite impossible to arrive al a definite reason for the forced de scent Of Old Glory"
