been to decrease the land held by the

At the beginning Of the planting

Most Of this was rented on the share

that had its inception back in 1916
will be realized next week when a
caravan Of airplanes starts westward

Before the event is concluded on
Sept. q the racing planes will have
spanned the continent, from Roosc-
welt Field. l.. l., to the finish line
in Spokane, Wash. 4
Tentative plans for an air derby,
proposed IL years ago. had To be
abandoned when many Of the military
planes that would have been the
mainstay Of the contest were re-
quired on the Mexican border. The
situation was little changed in the
next year, and in 1917 came the war.
Last year saw the onto Philadelph in

Commercial Planes Enter
Significant Of the onward sweep
of commercial aviation is the fact that
this first air derby is not dependent
upon the entries Of military planes
In fact, the two classes into which
the event is divided permits only Of
the entry Of machines OF the com
mercial type.

At about the same time another
event, the Pacific Coast Air Derby
will start group Of planes wingin2
northward from San Francisco &c

mercial planes and is similarly divid-
ed into two classes.

and robbed before her house was
burned to the ground at Suitland,
Nd, early yesterday, Sam Clark,
colored. 3042 Dennison st. N. W.,
today appealed to the Washington
police for assistance. He was ad-
vised that local police are powerless
to aid him. 49,
Clark said that his sisters large
11-room house on the Marlboro Pike
caught fire shortly after 2 o'clock
yesterday morning and completely
destroyed when he was notified.
When he arrived, he claims, his
sisters body was lying in the base.
ment. still blazing. He grabbed some
water and extinguished the flames.
He then examined the body, he al.
leges. and found plain marks of
ropes on her arms and legs.
Despite this. according to Clark,
an inquest was held on the premises
and verdict of accidental death re-
turned. Not satisfied, Clark had the
body removed to. an undertaking
establishment In Anacostia. where he
is holding 1t so that the rope marks
may be seen. He feels that, because
his sister was colored, no action is
being taken to apprehend the per.
sons who, he is sunre, bound and
robbed her, and then set her house
on fire.
She raised chickens, and always
had money in the house, he claims.
