Life in Tiny Plane to Cross

Radio Is Not Carried in
Brave Attempt to

LONDON, Oct. 18.-Grave
anxiety was felt this afternoon
for the safety of Lieutenant
Commander II. c. Macdonald,
R. N, retired, who left Harbor
Grace, Newfoundland, at II 40
a. M, eastern standard time,
Wednesday, on an attempt to
fly across the Atlantic to Ire
land or England.
AT 6: 40 GAO p. m. eastern
standard time) Commander
Macdonald had been gone from
Harbor Grace twenty-six hours
and no word had been received
of his whereabouts.
At a consumption of four gallons
an hour, Macdonald would have a
margin of twenty-five hours before
his fuel was exhausted. Using four
and one-half gallons. his margin
would be cut to twenty-five hours.
The twenty-five hours was up at
$40 a. m. (E. S. T)
Winds Are Favorable
However, while unfavorablc
weather prevailed in his course ap~
preaching Ireland, winds reported
across the Atlantic may have en-
abled the flier to conserve his fuel,
and it was thought he may still
have a chance to achieve his goal.
Visibility was good on the south
coast of Ireland. but earlier it had
been poor, and similar conditions
prevailed elsewhere, so that Mac
Donald could cross the coast with
out being observed.
England was aroused to a high
point of interest by the exploit of
the young naval officer, who is
Only 33.
While an experienced navigator,
and a British submarine officer dur
ing the war, his flying experience
was small.
Storms Over Atlantic
From mid-Atlantic to the Irish
coast there were reports of high
winds, rain and poor visibility.
At mid-Atlantic the winds were
reported to be raging at between
forty-five and fifty miles an hour.
The De Haviland Gypsy Moth
machine Macdonald took to New
foundland in September, is one of
the tinieSt of the planes now in use
in the British empire. It's wing
spread is only twenty-six feet. 1t
has only eight-five horsepower,
whereas, Lindbergh's machine could
develop 225 horsepower. Its cruis-
ing range is estimated at more than
5000 miles.

Anxiety Grows in England
as Hours Pass Without
Word of Filler.
BY J. G.. MEANEY
limited Press Snecinl Cnrresnnl


ST. JOHNS, Newfoundland,
Oct. 16.-For a thrill, which
capture by cannibaliStic Afri-
cans and wartime submarine
service had failed to provide,
Commander H. G. Macdonald
today was risking his life in a
daring attempt at a trans
Atlantic crossing.
The former British naval off
Ger started-without any great
advance publicity-from Har-
Dor Grace, Newfoundland,
about noon Wednesday, hop
ing to land in England within
eighteen hours.
So transformations was the start
that many believed he was just
taking his 85-horsepower Dehaviland
Moth up for an air jaunt. But as
darkness crept over this area and
the first streaks of dawn came to-
day it was certain Macdonald was
risking his life in a daring gamble
that the little plane would carry
him to England.
Most Daring Flight
1t is the most daring trans
Atlantic flight ever attempted and
made by a man whose air expert
ence is almost negligible as COM
pared with the other illustrious
fliers who have attempted overseas
flights.
A year ago. Macdonald started
flying. He made long distance
tour in a Moth down into Africa
and there was captured by natives,
rescue coming Just when the canni-
balistic natives had decided to kill
him.
That had not given him the thrill
he wanted. He announced a trans
Atlantic fight. With little advance
notice he arrived in Newfoundland,
Sept. q, and started preparations.
No Radio in Machine
So tiny was the plane Macdonald
intended using that mnay could not
believe the serious intent of this
ruddy, S3-year-old former naval
officer. The plane weighed but 800
pounds. Its wing spread was but
twenty-Six feet. Its motor could de-
velop only eighty-five horse power
Its cruising range was only about
$500 miles.
Like Colonel Lindbergh, MacDon-
aid did not install radio into the
and planned dead reckon
ing for the selection of p fight
course.
In many ways the start CT Mac
Donald and Lindbergh's flights were
not dissimilar.
When the proper conditions
availed Lindbergh quietly climbed
into his Spirit of st. Louis and
started for Paris.
So it was with Mcdonald Wednes-
day.
He heard conditions we're favor
able over the Atlantic. He prepared,
a thermoS bottle with
coffee, a few sandwiches, and walked
over to his little Moth, a mechanic
twisted the propeller.
The engine roared and with a
wave of his hand to the mechanic
and the five or six spectators about,
he was away.

1t was high noon when Lila, ra-
diant and beautiful as the flowers
she carried, walked slowly up the
aisle of fashionable st. Timothy's,
between pews marked by tall stand
ards of Easter lilies.
She saw only Herbert, as he
waited in the chancel; grave, good
looking, carefully groomed. Her
tiny, wavering smile was so beauti-
full that his stern face took on an
expression of sheer alteration that
brought catch to the hearts of the
older onlookerS.

"Six months more of this-maybe
only three!" he was saying, half to
himself, half to his companion,
"and then III be in shape to go

me. I haven't seen her for five

He began to talk about her with

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Oct. 49,
Funeral services will be held here
today for Mrs. Genevieve Stults.
beauty parlor operator, whose body
was found near Elkhart, Monday.
buried in lime pit, and who police
believe was murdered because of
her clandestine love affair with a
married man.
Three persons have been charged
with the murder. Charles L. River
and his wife, jamie Rhyer, are in
jail in Elkhart while police still are
searching for Harvey L. Smith,
private detective.
1t is believed Smith is travelling
with a carnival in Alabama. Mrs.
Rhyer has admitted she hired the
detective to get Mrs. Stults out of
town, but she said she did not be-
lleve he would commit murder.

Commitment papers were
served on Shumaker by Viii
liam l.. Resoner, supreme court
sheriff, early this afternoon.
Shunaker was ready to begin the
trip to the farm at once, but on
suggestion of Resoner, who said his
automobile was not Immediately
available for the trip, the start was
postponed until Friday.
Ethan A. Miles, league attorney,
and James A. Bingham Sr., filed
todays motion with Judge Julius c.
Travis, Benjamin M. Willoughby
and Clarence r. Martin.
Motion Is Granted
The court granted the motion at
once.
The motion which Shunaker
asked be withdrawn was filed ir
anticipation of proceedings in the
United States supreme court, TO-
days motion declared.
"The respondent (Shumaker)
does not now intend to take such
proceedings in said cause, and Ii
justice and fairness to this honor
able court hereby withdraws said
motion for new trial on said mo-
ton for a rehearing," it said.
A hint that Shumakers follow
ers have a faint hope of a habeas
corpus appeal to Federal Judge
Robert G. Baltzell later was given
by Miles.
Were not forfeiting or waving
any rights in this court. There are
other courts besides the United
States supreme court" Miles stated.
Shumaker has little belief that
an appeal to the local federal court
would aid him, it was understood,
however.
There also was believed to be
little possibility that Governor Jack
son would pardon the dry league
superintendent, although friends of
Shumaker recently discussed that
possibility with him.
The Governor has that power,
however, declared a minority opin-
ion on various points in the Shu-
maker case, handed down today by
Judge Martin and concurred in by
Judge Gemmill.
Opinion Covers Three Motions
The opinion covered minority
findings on three motions in the
contempt case. They were the mo-
toin of co-defendant Jesse E. Martin
for a new trial and additional
response of Attorney General Arthur
r. GilliomS motion to modify
judgement and increase the Shu-
maker sentence, ad the Shumakcr
petition for rehearing and motion
for new trial.
Both Martin and Gemmill
disented in the original findings of
the court by which Shumaker was
sentenced to sixty days at Indiana
State Farm and fined $3.50.
At the close of the opinion, cov-
ering thirteen closely typed pages,
Martin declared that the courts
original findings in the case have
been criticised almost universally.
He cites various law journals in sup
port of this contention.
Then. as in his minority opinion
on the original findings, he pointed
to allegedly contemptuous comment
on the case published by various
papers in the editorial columns.
Editorials Are Cited
Two editorials from The Indian
apolis Times and one from the In
News we're cited.
The decision to drop the fight
against Shumaker's contempt SEN
tence was reached because the Anti
Salon League now has insufficient
funds to carry an appeal to the SUI
preme court, a statement issued by
the leagues headquarters commit
tee today declared.
Shumaker, the statement said, re-
peatedly has asked headquarters
to close the case, avoid
further expense and permit him TO
serve his time.
