IS To HOP
OFF FRIDAY

NEW YORK, June Is. - with
Comdr. Richard e. Byrd returning
from Winchester, Va, tomorrow,
mechanics at Roosevelt Field today
were putting the final touches on
the Fokker monoplane America. for
a probable take-off on the hop to
Paris early Friday.
Though no official announcement
has been made, it is understood at
the field that Commander Byrd and
his associates, Bert Acosta and
Lieut.. George Neville, win tarry in
Paris only long enough to refuel
before starting the return journey.
In contrast with the flights Of
Lindbergh and Chamberlin and
Levine, the journey of the America
will be primarily scientific.
The most economical engine
speeds from fuel standpoint,
utilization of favorable wind cur
rents, and the use of the radio are
some Of the things to be studied.
Commander Byrd's course, more
over, will differ from that taken on
the preceding transatlantic flights.
His route will be 'tflatter'' and
consequently somewhat longer, but
will be nearer the steamship lanes.
Radio station WODA at Paterson,
N. j., will endeavor to keep in touch
with the America" through the EN-.
tire flight, furnishing Government
weather reports, ship news bulletins

HOUSE Of DAVID
IS ACCUSED
BY WILLIAM J. BUTLER
International News Service

ST. JOSEPH, Mich, June is.
Charging the House of David with
obstructing justice in tampering
with a States witness, Assistant
Attorney General George E. Mich
OILS today demanded an investiga-
ton of the disappearance of Mrs.
Cora l. Bundy, of Gary, Ind, after
she had promised to testify against
the cult.
Little Marie Moore. the famous
House of David Christ Child" was
named for, the first time late yestsr.
day in the cult dissolution suit.
The mother, Estadorpha Smith,
erstwhile alleged favorite Of king
Ben" was married to James
Moore, her cult virgin law" hus-
band, two months before the child
was born, Mrs. Elisa Bamford, of
Detroit, testified on cross-examina-
ton by defense counsel w. J.
Barnard.
Mrs. Bamford is the mother of
Mrs. Ruth Bamford Reed and Mrs.
Gladys Bamford Rubel, of Detroit,
who have filed assault charges
against Purnell and are suing him
for 100000 damages.
When her daughter started a
raid to nab Purnell in 1923 while
he was hiding in the House of
David. Ben fixed" the time for
the raid with Sheriff George Bridge
man, Mrs. Bamford indicated.
Right after the raid I heard
Bridgeman tell Mary Purnell my
girls wanted the raid between mid
night and a. M, but he held it
off until 1880 a. m. When the
raiders got there, Benjamin, of
course, was gone"

WOMAN TO TRY
ROME FLIGHT

| NEW YORK, June 15.--Man
spanned the Atlantic with high.
powered wings. And. now. q wom-
an will follow in his tracks. She
is Luba Philips, who will take-off
from New York on Juy 10, weather
permitting, on her nonstop flight
| to Rome.
Luba Philips. Russian born, is
| at once an idealist and realist. She
is quiet, pretty, dreamt-eyed and
practical. She ID not unlike the
personable, easy-going birdmen who
sailed the skies and wondered at
earth's connection.
The motto of this young woman
/ seems to be-"First in woman's con-
quests of the sky" She was the
pioneer woman aviator OF Russia;
she was the first to fly the original
Fokker military plane and the first
woman to better the European man
made altitude record. She knew
Fokker when he was q boy, and
although the decision is not definite,
she expects and wants to fly
Fokker plane on her transatlantic
flight.
Decided Lack OF Emotion
Lindbergh seems to have decreed
how the Well.mannered ocean flier
shall act. Luba Philips displayed
absolutely no emotion toward the
daring flight. And, seemed, is any
thing, slightly amused when asked
1 IL she entertained fear or anxiety
at the obvious risk.
A tall, graceful woman, essentially
| feminine, Liba Philips Is not what
one might expect to see announced
as the prospective woman candidate
for the long, perilous flight from
New York to Rome.
When she gave this exclusive in
terview. she was wearing a smart,
blue felt hat, tailored suit, with
a soft gray fur collar, an exquisite
real lace vest, ecru tone; q twisted
strand of large pearls, biege kid slip
pers with extreme high heels!
Start Is Only Problem
The take-off is the only part Of the
trip which seems to worry her. And
even that doesn't seem to be caus-
Philips sailed Russian skies for the
Red Cross when they were cracking
with war clouds, and that may have
| 5tCoAACA 1ICL AACAN YES as Sic SoS4O
''At least when I cross the At
lantic I'll have clear sailing"
Sleep?
No, Luba Philips doesn't think
she will grow sleepy on the flight.
She feels she will be too alive,
tense and interested in every inch of
the sky to grow tired.
Food? That hadn't occurred to
her.
But, whatever there Is in the way
of sustenance, it will be very little,
she says.
What will Luba Philips want to
do when she lands her plane on Ital-
ian soil?
There was no delay In her answer:
| II will come home to America on
the first ship out" she replied.
Explains Motive ior Hop
Luba Philips says she is never so
much at home as when up in the
air." She flies for the pure joy of
1t, and gave as her reason for this
flight, one which she accompanied
with delightful laugh:
"A mother swan the Channel for
her babies-why not hop over for
my hushand?"

hold the shifting sands with beach
grass and plant the suitable areas
with young trees. Trees thus plant
ed would soon be large enough to af-
ford protection to the area and thus
increase land values and add to the
general prosperity Of the State.
It is the general opinion of Della
ware people, acquainted with this land
that such an afforestation project is
impossible. However, the State OF
Michigan, under similar conditions
have been very successful in reclaim
ing sand dunes with Jack Pine.
Again, the largest artifcially estab-
lished forest in the world, consisting
of some $4,000 acres and known as
the Maritime Pine Forest is in the
Landes Region of France. It was est
tablished on just such land as lies on
the eastern coast of Delaware. al
though it may be difficult to establish
forest here, nevertheless, it can be
done and is an entirely feasible prop
osition to undertake.
1t is BY direct cooperation with the
owners Of woodlands and wastelands
that the work will progress. To this
end, it is the purpose Of the State
Forestry Department to give the land
owners the scientific knowledge nee
essary to the solution Of the problem
involved. The problem which is the
guiding principle of the service, to be
rendered involves a continuous pro-
duction Of trees in forest lands.
Since practically the entire wood
land and waste land acreage in the
State is privately owned, the extent
Of assistance given is dependent on
Cd the number Of requests received
for such aid; and (2) the funds avail
able for the work The assistance
given is divided into two classes (1)

ing and estimating timber for the
owners. In the second case the for
ester must spend a great deal Of time
estimating the harvest,marking which
trees are to be removed and which are
to be retained for the purpose Of pro
viding future forest.
This work of assisting woodland
owners Is Of benefit not only to the
individual by introducing better for
est management on his land, but will
render a much greater service as OBJ
ject lessons to the community and
State at large. Each project Of this
kind will constitute a concrete exam
