NEW PLANE METER
MAY DEFEAT FOG
Altitude instrument Designed
to Give Pilot Exact Height
at All Times.

BY the Associated Press.
A new instrument designed to defeat
fog. an arch enemy of aviation. has
been developed by Army Air Corps
Engineers.
1t is new style altimeter, at present
highly experimental, which registers
the exact distance between airplane and
ground objects instead giving, as the
present aitimeter does. the distance
above sea level. Its value Is expected
TO be demonstrated in night and foggy
weather flying.
THE value OF this height recording
device" Assistant Secretary Dawson,
said yesterday In announcing the i'm
proyement, becomes apparent when
one considers the fix In which pilots
have often found themselves when N.Y.
ing or in trying to land In fog or at
night.
TT must be remembered that the old
altiIneter works by atmospheric pres
sure. Its zero Is at sea level, but pilot
who flies 1000 feet above that level
may actually have only so feet clear
ance between himself and tree tops in
high and rolling country. Lift one of
these instruments above desk and 1t
records exactly the height at which 1t
Is held suspended
Another experiment is being conduct
cd to reduce danger in bad weather
landings. 1t Is a series OF wires that
radiate from the center Of the airport
like spokes from q wheel. Each wire
sends at various intervals radio signals
informing the pilot, about to make q
landing. how to govern his descent and
even tells him, the engineers say. when
to put his wheels on the ground.

White Mans Jazz
Music Sobs Death
of Indian Custom

Garrison, N. D., Aug. H.
(AP)-Jaz5 music has exerted
its influence over the Arickara
Indians living on the reservation
west Of here. As . result the
Dead Grass society Of the tribe
may have held its last cere-
monial.
The old braves participated in
the ceremony as Of old, but the
young men and women were not
interested. Instead Of conform.
ing to the customs of their an.
eestors they attend the enter
tainments of the white man,
dancing the white mans dances
to the rhythm Of the white
mans music.
The Desd Grass society is .
secret fraternal organization
which is rs old as the tribe it.
self. Each year, at this season,
Z week is given over to the tribe
rites. The organization symbol
ICES the grass which dies each
year to make way for new grass
in the spring.
The Arickara contention is
that the old men are the dead
grass and the young men the
new grass. Each year, at the
dead grass ceremonial. the old
men have handed down the ira:
ditions of the tribe to the new
generation.
But the chanting Of Red Bear.
Bears Belly and Little Sioux
held q new note of plaintiveness
this year. Each is Z veteran Of
the Custer campaigns. They
take their traditions seriously.
White Shield, the tribal chief,
also is disappointed.
The white mans music and
the white mans ways have
wesned the young people away
= from them. White men came
to the Dead Grass ceremony
this year. L. F. Crawford Of the
state historical society, Major
|. A. B. Welch of Mandan and
George F. Will Of Bismarck
were there. But the young

and the ceremony Of the Dead
