years publicists, professors and
statesmen from this country and
abroad have assembled at the 1nsti-
tute of Politics for the discussion Of
world affairs. has witnessed an IN
mistakable transformation.

feminine"
Audiences that used to present a
sombre appearance to the speaker
are today dotted with an array OF
colored summer frocks and early
fall chapeaux.
Registration figures show that
there are no more than usual
which means about a third of the
1S2 regular members are women.
Wives of the speakers, however,
and 70 associate women members,
explain their predominance, officials
of the institute say. Associate
members may attend general con-
ferences and the lectures held each
morning and night, They are not
allowed to join round table sessions
open to experts and the press.
OF the regular women members
many are college professors, repre-
sentatives Of the international Y.
w. c. A., lecturers on current events
or politicians interested in the in
ternational section of the League of
Women Voters. Among them are
Miss Eloise Ellery of Vassar college
and Dr. Mary Mills Patrick. presi-
dent emeritus of the Women's col
lege in Constantinople. Viscountess
Bryce, also a members, will remain
at the institute only few days.
Members are allowed to attend
but one round table. Most of the
women exercising that privilege
chose the round table on dictator

Ger of Ohio State university Is

DR.. Walter MacLaren, executive
Of the institute, is at loss to ex-

trace of the other three ships
First Long Air Ride

Captain Paul Schulter. navigator
of Jensen's plane, appeared slightly
dizzy after landing. 1t was his frs,
long plane ride. His navigating ex-
perience was gained as a shipmas-
ter and he deserted that calling 70,
the glamor of the skies.
Jensen, native son, was almost
buried beneath leis. The crowd re-
fused to obey orders of the police
and military to move back, so
enamored were they of their own
hero.
Damned If didn't lost my way"
Jensen calculated. And that's
strange, for ! know these islands
better than any of the other flyers"
He was tired.
But I'm very happy" he added.
4 never doubted my ability to reach
the old home port
Dole. who gave the purse, too, was
happy in the success of Jensen and
Goebel.
Il knew they would; oh, l knew
they would" he repeated.
AS for the other two planes and
their five occupants, for the first sew
eral hours OF silence when the planes
were believed safely on their way it
was assumed that they had been
hidden by fog and clouds from ships
along the path. They had no radio
sending sets and it was thought that,
like Marty Jensen, they would sud-
denly dart out from the eastward
sky and sNoop down toward the
field.
But the fuel carried by the two
planes would not keep them aloft
for the period which has passed
since they hoped off from Oakland
airport Tuesday.
It was understood 40 navy ships
would be called into action from the
mainland today beside those in
Hawaiian waters.

Full descriptions of the lost planes
were sent out to the searching ships
