OF that amount, sl.209.9 .943 went for

ages. sl33.6lo for furnishings and
sl85.i00 for the purchase of church

The total for the year just closed is
less than the total for the preceding
year. despite the fact that statistics
show an advance in liberality rather
than decline.
The smaller sum reported for build

Between 1917 and 1929 the churches
had lean years, as far as construction

BUFFALO, N. Y, July 10.-Re-

over the shooting of Jacob 2. Han

of Hoover's intentions. They will
take it for granted that this silence
means that Hoover will abide entire
ly by the Republican platform and
frame their policy accordingly, bu-
reau officials said.
Purpose of the meeting is to out
line that policy 1t was expected to
be adopted late this afternoon.
A similar request to Governor Al
fred E. Smith. Democratic presiden-
tial candidate, brought immediate
response. Smith declared that if
elected he would call an immediate
meeting of farm leaders to deter
mine a definite and practical farm
relief policy, to be recommended to

Settle and other leaders already
had expressed their approval of the
Democra c farm plank and disap-
proval of the Republican. Today
they were loud in praise Of Smiths

stand for the Democratic program

Radio Silence Indicates
Members of Italia Crew
Have SuCcumbed.
Copyright. 1928. by United Press,


VIRGO BAY. Spitzbergen, July
10.-Eight hours silence from the
four haggard, starving men left
within sight of land on the dirglble
Italia ice camp off Northeastiand,
caused alarm today.
Lieutenant Sarko of Finland pre-
pared to fly over the camp at once.
In his last message today Giu-
seppe Biagi, radio operator, sald
Rescue seems so near and yet so
far"
The operator tapped out on his
little short wave station the word
that the men are embittered by
cold and morose as they watch
planes, unable to land, circle over
head.
"It is too cold to wash or bathe,
Biaggi reported.
Relief for the men is questionable.
Relief Is Doubtful
The Russian aviator Chukhnov-
sky, aboard the ice breaker KraSSin,
broke the runners of his plane.
The Swedish planes, due to con-
stant hard use. are urgently in need
of repairs.
The Italian relief planes Of Majors
Maddalena and Penzo need new
motors. These can not be installed
within six days.
The ice is melting so rapidly it is
nearly impossible for a plane to
land These four men have been on
this ice foe since May Is.
The men are strictly rationed.
Supplies are guarded closely. The
main food is bear meat.
The first complete story of how
Natole Ceccioni died at the ice en-
campment became known today.
He died alone on a smooth, cold
ice pack, Succumbing to the wounds
he received when the Italia crashed
May 25 and to the freezing temper
ature."
After Lundborg made one flight
to the island and removed General
Mobile, the four other men on the
Italia carried Ceccioni, suffering
terribly from his injuries, to where
Lundborg had made his first land
ing.
Lundborg flew in the second time.
His plane crashed.
The four Italians attempted to
carry Ceccioni back to the camp.
They were exhausted from exposure
and lack OF uourishment.
The injured man was left out
under the open sky for the night.
He was found the next day. dead,
frozen.
Crash Story Told
How the Italia suddenly crashed
May 25; how ten men, stranded on
an ice foe, crawled into sleeping
bags to await death, and how Gen.
Umberto Mobiles dog, Titiana,
fought off attacking bears, was told
today.
The craft dropped suddenly and
crashed. Mobile was knocked un-
conscious. Nine other men were
brushed from engine cabins to the
ice.
Mobile awakened to find Finn
Malmgren and Capt. Adalberto Ma
riano lying beside him.
Vincenzo Pomella, an engine man,
approached to aid Malmgren and
Mariana. He fell dead.
The remaining nine men sought
their bed-bags, apparently ready to
die. Later, they regained strength
The envelope Of the dirigible had
floated away, carrying six other
men with it.
