As to the statement of Mr.. Green's
fearing Mr.. Willis strength as pos
sible candidate for the supreme chan
cellor in 1929, the propaganda was
placed in circulation by Green sup
porters. who broadcast the report
throughout the convention hall and
city that the only reason the Texas
jurisdiction desired the next biennial
supreme lodge was to "set the stage"
for Willis election as titular head Of
the Pythian fraternity; that as the
most popular man in the supreme
lodge Mr.. Willis stock might be
boosted considerably as result of the
meeting in Texas, and that the time
is not ripe yet to supplant Mr.. Green.
The opponents of Dallas and propo-
nents of Green are responsible for this
"puerile and childish" talk, which
demonstrates that the Green adherents
and devotees undoubtedly have the
mentality of children. Mr.. Green,
himself, knows that this report was
prevalent at the Chicago meeting, and
before placing Dallas in nomination as
the next convention city, Mr.. Willis
took the floor and plainly stated his
position and attitude with reference
to the office of supreme chancellor.
Mr.. Green's chief pastime seems to
be making straw men and then knock
ing them down; yelling "Wolfl Wolff"
when there is no such animal even
roaming around the fraternal forests !
Mr.. Green, in taking the floor
against the South, did himself i'm
measurable injury, and, because this
paper dared to expose him, he charges
The Informer editor with having made
vicious attack" upon him; wher, as
a matter of fact, our former editorial
was free from any personal attack
upon the New Orleans fraternalist,
but merely an editorial dissertation
upon the supreme chancellor's attitude
at Chicago as contrastod with his attl-
tude when attending the grand lodge
in the Texas jurisdiction.
In our former editorial we made this
assertion: "The Informer has here
tofore mad very high opinion of Mr..
Green, and we have regarded him as
a consistent, conscientious leader-a
man with vision, backbone and stam-
ina; one who believes in playing the
game according to Hoyle, and this
editor would be panied to have such
opinions changed at this time"
This editor has no personal spleen

NEWS DISPATCHES FROM ALL OVER
 THE WORLD

NEW YORK-The wreekage of the plane sOld Glory in which Lloyd Bertaud, James Hill and Phil lip Payne. newspaperman. set out for Rome last Tuesday. has been found floating on the north Atlantic 100 miles from the position at which the fliers sent out cry for help.
 The wreck was discovered by the steamer Kyle which was char tered by the newspaper of which Payne was the managing editor, to make a search for the plane. Word of sighting the wreekage was sent by Douglas Muir. newspaper man Of Newfoundland. who went with the expedition.
 It was evident from Muir's mes sage that none of the crew had been found and that hope has been defi- nitely given up. It is not known whether a wing or the entire plane was found by the searching party. It is generally conceded by sea cap tains, however, that the improVised boat possessed by the fliers could never have survived the buffeting of the North Atlantic seas.
 The finding of "Old Glory was d grim coincidence Reports from London said that remnants of an airplane had been washed up at Cornwall. England. It was pointed out that the wreckage might be that either of the Nungesser plane or the Prince Lowenstein eXpedi- tion

COOLIDGE ADVISED AGAINST
 SPECIAL SESSION BY CHIEFS

WASHINGTON- President Cool idge will not call a special session of the Senate or entire Congress IL was indicated in official circles fol- lowing a conference the President had with Senator Curtis. leader of the Republicans in the Senate. and John c. Tilson. Republican leader in the House.
 Both men reported that there is no strong sentiment for an extra session. It is understood that Pres ident Coolidge will accept their re eommendation and refuse to sum mon Congress for special session to consider flood relief and senato= rial contested elections.
 President Coolidge personally op poses calling a special conference and with the advice of the leaders to support his opinion there is little likelihood that one will be forth coming. Senator Curtis declared that there is nothing to prevent a tax reduction of $30o,000,o ,oo0, which shows clearly that there is no urgent need for a special session. II minutes.

Wrangell radio fans had the pleasure of hearing the news over the radio last night of big recel- ton which was given to General pershing on the S.S. Leyiathan last night in celebration of his 62nd birthday. The message stated that the Leviathan would reach Cher bourg this afternoon. No mention was made of the Wrangell delega- tion but from long habit it is very probable that Nick Nussbaumer was chairman of the finance committee Mrs. Gartley had charge of the deco rations, Mrs. Nussbaumer baked cake and Mrs. J.
