MIDDLE-AGED JOBLESS MAN
 SEEN AS NATIONAL MENACE

BROOKLYN.-w foresee a great national peril unless the business men of the country make a concentrated effort to solve the problem of the middle-aged jobless man," Senator w. L. Love said at a meeting of the Mems Club of St. Vincent's church, in talk on "The Problem of the Job less Middle-Aged Man." H eto]d his listeners that countless thousands of mature, honest, .hard-workin:y men have been "shoved to the wall and thrown down the chute of enforced likeness through no fault of their own.
 "Where is tre village blacksmith? ? Where is the old family coachman?" Dr. Love asked, adding: "In many cases the vocation has been sacrificed upon the altar of progress in modern labor saving machinery"
 Senator Love told his audience that he had been informed that at least one Brooklyn concern has adopted the practice of employing, as office boys, middle-aged men who have been thrown out of work, adding that "they find them great improvement on the cigarette-smoking, chewing male fappers, whose chief concern is in watching the clock.

ADVERTISING.

All progressive merchants adver- tise these days, and so do many pro- fessional people.
 Merchants simply have to advertise to be progressive. They have found that advertising pays.
 But some of themS4 would be more progressive if they'd advertise con- sistently. They advertise when busi- ness is good, of course. But they de- crease their advertising or eliminate it altogether when busineas is not SO good.
 That is just the opposite of what should be the case. The.4ime to ad- yertise more than ever is .xhen busi- ness is not so good. !Hhat 1asti7e way to make it good again-to. advertise.
 John Wanamaker made millions as retail merchant. Of newspaper ad- vertising he said: "When the times

ATTACK IS RENEWED
 UPON .APE3MAN THEORY

PHILADEEEHIA. -Rrof. Henry Fairfield Osborn, president of: the American Museum of Natural 1His- tory, today renewed his attack upon the ape-man theory of evolution and defended his own pro-dawn~ man thesis
 E He spoke before the Amarican- Phil osophical Society meeting here.
 "Granting," said Dr.. Osborn, E"alk the very strong. circumstantial evir dence in favor of the apeman theory, which has been piled mountain thigh by investigators since the etime of Darwin, and has been recently re- vised and stimulated to new force by the attacks of fundamentalists on the whole evolution theory, we must look for the diretc evidence which can come only fro mgeology and paleon tology."
 Referring to the Central Asiatic ex- petition of the American Museum which left Pekin on April IA for the rich Mongolian fossil beds,, Dr. Os- born said that proponents of the ape man theory held that the party would find a primitive ape that would have been capable of giving rise to the human family in Miocene times.
 According to the new theory, the Mongolian deposits should yield a true prototype of man.
 The final solution of this problem, said Dr. Osborn, rests with the fossil hunter and the explorers. q do not know the exact figures, but l think it safe to say that 50,00O to 1 is the ratio of probability of the discovery of fossil remains of lower orders of primates of tertiary times.
 Meanwhile the circumstantial evil dence of geology and geography is all in favor of the theory that the pro-man stock was we'll established in oligocene times and conservatively estimated at sixteen million years ago."

A1RPLANE SOLVES ITS
 OWN FUEL QUESTION

BERLIN.-A transatlantic flight with an airplane towing a motorless plane carrying gasoline reserves is being planned by the Raab-Watzen- stein Airplane works, in Gassel. The flight issexpected to take place in the fall.
 The glider will be lowed by a strong cable. From this glider gaso- line will be drawn through "a hose to feed the airplane motor.
 When the. gasoline of the glider tank is exhausted the trailer will be set. free and the plane will continue it's journey alone. It will then draw it's fuel from it's own tanks.
 :. Officials said today that the venture is in no way fantastic and declare that they have found a way of taking og with a heavily. loaded plane and glider trailing.

DO YOU KNOW THEM?

Inquiry has been received at the Governors office for the following persons:

 Benjamin F. Decker, whose descrip- tion is given as 40 years old, height about feet 8 inches, heavy set, light complexion, blue eyes. Was last heard from near Juneau.
 Any information concerning the above should be sent to the Cover nor's office, Juneau, Alaska.

passing it? And as you jockeyed for position you perhaps muttered to yourself, I wonder who rides in those things, anyway?
 Ask that question today and the answer will be, Last year they car ried 2,525, 100000 passengers
 "'Oh, well,' you say, probably from New York to Coney Island. But the answer will be- There are 27O,O0O miles of common carrier bus lines in this country as against 257,- 900 miles of rail lines.'
 eff that doesn't bring you up with a start, then think of this: "The American public paid to common car rier bus lines the sum of S312, 2,500,0 ,000 for transportation in 1927. The best figures. available indicate that the busses themselves travelled approxi- mately 100000 miles.
 "The average tax per bus is about $750 per year as against the average tax of about $50 per private car per year, while the average bus load is ten passengers and the average pri- vate car load is two and one-half pas sengers"

NEWARK,. N. J..IThe suits filed by five, young women whose doctors say they have been doomed to early death because of Eadium. poisoning were settled out of court early this afternoon.
 Under the settlement, arranged by : Federal Judge Clark. the United States Radium Corporation agreed to pay each plaintiff what would. .4ap- :. proximate $50,000 in a jury award.
 The successful arbitration of the strange industrial tangle occurred at | conference in Judge Clark's, cham bers. He. had volunteered to act. as referee after the case had been fought on many technicalities in the Jersey. courts of equity.
 Each woman will receive ,000 in cash, an annuity of $500. and all doc tors and hospital expenses for the rest of their lives. The corporation will meet counsel. fees and court ex- penses. Raymond H. Barry, the at torney who sought to get the women a legal hearing, is to receive $15,O00 for his services.
