great issue" In the speech of Repre-

His name and fame, however. are not
confined to the State Of Indiana, I
dare say he has q broader acquaintance
tnAn any other man In public life today.
He can call more men and women BY
their first names than any other man
living today. He has made more Re-

living today. He has Travelled from one

For more than 40 years our can

that he preached, his reputation spread
rapidly, and 1t has never been diYnmed.
AS an advocate he hasn't an equal in

2STORMSH HIT
TEXAS AREAS
Debris Being Cleared
In Northeast and
Northwest State

DALLAS, Tex, May 17.-(R-Two
widely-separated portions Of Texas
today were beginning salvage work
in an effort to minimize loss from a
tornado and a heavy rain and hail
storm which struck respectively in
the Texas Panhandle and Oklahoma
and northeast Texas and Arkansas.
Damage was expected to prove
greatest ear Texarkana where the
rain and hail storm was estimated to
have caused loss estimated at $780,
600. In this section, Daingerfieid,
Tex, apparently was hardest hit, a
cloudburst having broken two dams
and flooding valuable farm lands
with a loss of $4,000. Several
highway bridges and one railway
bridge on the Louisiana Railway and
Navigation company line were wash
ed out. Many acres of cotton, which
must be %replanted, and truck crops,
which cannot be replanted. were
washed out in the vicinity of Horatio.
Ark, by waters from normally small
creeks.
Telegraph and railroad communica-
tons in the Panhandle near yelling
ton, Tex, were being restored TODAY
after a general wind, rain, and hal!
storm which struck in that section.
Two houses were reported demolished
in Wellington and the roof of the
community school at Reed, Okla, was
blown off. The Fort Worth and
Denver railway between Hedley and
Giles today was repairing about 500
feet of track that washed out. Teie-
graph lines were down at many
points.

rance said. "Thsy will have wings
six or seven feet thick, which even
tually will accommodate passengers
who will be able TO walk about in
them, eat and sleep in their roomy
interiors. The fuselage will then
shrink TO a mere vestige Of its pres
ent form.
"The coming planes will be 50
large that it will be possible for
mechanics to work on the engines in
flight. In fact they will be able to
take down an engine while flying.
The airplane Of the future will be
one Of the greatest factors in abol-
ishing war"
Cost To Decline
Mr.. Ford envisioned the discovery
OF a new fuel in the development Of
aviation. he said interest in avia-
ton was increasing, and implied that
ne was interested in efforts to pro-
duee a new fuel lighter than gaso-
line and thus add TO the load-carrying
capacity Of airplanes.
The transportation of freight by
airplane is limited to its weight-lift-
ing capacity" Mr.. Wright said. Il
do not believe airplanes will supplant
steamships as the principal freight
carrying medium for long distances,
nor do | believe they will supercede
railroads for transportating passen-
gers short distances at moderate
prices. This does not mean that
believe the plane has reached its linn
it Of development. There will be
greater development, but / am not
prepared to discuss its extent. The
cost Of construction will be greatly
decreased in the time and in conse-
Guence the cost of aerial travel will
become less expensive"
