HOPE FOR ELK IS
 THOUGHT LIKELY
Extinction of Noble Animal
 May Be Avoided

Washington, April 13 fP --- Hope for preventing extinction of the elk was held out today by M. P. Skin ner of Jamestown, N. Y., field natur- ahst of the Roosevelt Wild Life For est Experiment Station at Syracuse.
 Mir. Skinner. who spent Is years as park naturalist in the Yellowstone National park, where the largest band of elk exists, presented q paper at the annual meeting of the Ameri- can Society of Mammalogists on the present situation of these once abundant animals.
 Expressing doubt that as many as c5,0 900 elk survive today, he recalled that formerly they roamed in every state except Maine, Delaware. Missis- sippi, Louisiana and Florida and may have extented into Mexico. In that wide ranging, he found ground for hope that they can be saved as wild animals.
 "The animals that cover a wide range are those that are best suited to the habitat, and that most easily survive there,' he explained
 The Yellowstone region, he con- tlnued, offers the best chance for preservation of the elk, despite that the high, mountainous country is not q natural range for them in winter.
 ''To propertly care for such won- derful animals he said, Eve should know all about them. Actually, we know very little: not near enough to formulate a good and successful working plan."

 Arnaldo Mussolini, brother of the premier and editor of Il Duce's organ. Popolo DItalia, today said in that paper that those responsible for the bombing undoubtedly were in genlous political criminals.
 He asserted that the elaborate preparations and the nature of the internal machine itself precluded the theory that the act was commit ted by crazed and irresponsible per- sons. Therefore, he urged, the per petrators should be punished with all the severity which the law allow ed.
 He rejoiced at the extraordinary calm of the people of Milan, and the admirable attitude of the King and his lnsistence in continuing the fix ed program and then going to the hospitals to see the victims and

 All of which goes to show that the tall young man from Minne- sota meant what he said when he announced, after his return to the United States. that his life was dedicated to aviation. It is certain that his realization of his poten- tialities for the promotion of avia tion has turned his entire future activities, for many years at least, into this one channel. He may not make large sums of money, but his friends believe he will accomplish much toward attaining the end he has set for his goal-the further de- Velopment and increased public support of aviation.

ITALY REJOICING
 AT KINGS SAFETY
Happy That Bomb Which Killed IS Did Not Slay Monarch

Rome. April 1s R,-Italy was united in rejoicing today that King Victor Emmanuel had escaped death at Milan when bomb ex- ploded killing 16 persons and in- turing 70.
 Public buildings and private houses were bedagged with the na- tional colors. Walls were placarded with manifestos denouncing the dastardly attempt and deploring the loss of so many lives. Above all they exulted that Ire soldato" lthe soldier king) whose reign saw the redemption of the lost provinces :nd the crushing of an hereditary +nemy-Austria-at Vittorio Veneto ten years ago, had escaped an at tempt upon his life.

 Romans! In contrast to the mur- slerous hand which had no horror at holding the instrument of death, there remain the blessed hands of millions of citizens ever strongly holding their instruments of labor and bearing aloft the flags of the mother country to show the soldier king their passionate devotion''
 Similar expressions were forth- coming from the provincial gov efnors throughout the country and from patriotic societies.
 The fascist of Trent, formerly Austrian territory. sent homage "to the victims Of anti national tn- fanny" Perugia was placarded with Inscriptions Of Long live the King" and Long live II Dnce.' Florence was bedecked with banners cele- hra'ing the escape of the monarch.
 The kings son, Crown Prince Humbert. received the news by wireless At Rhodes in the Aegean sea and messages of congratulations to pour into the Quirinal and Chigi palaces.

FIVE GIRLS FOUND

nAs Vain Attempt to Travel as
 StoWaWays

Washington. April 13.-lP'-Five girls who sought adventure on the high seas might still be sailing with Uncle Sam's navy had not one of them confided to her chum that she intended to ship on destroyer as q stowaway. But she did, and now five girls are on land again, one sailor is under arrest, and a court Of in quiry will go into the matter.
 The girl who told is Cynthia AL berta Poole, Is year old high school student Of St. Petersburg, Fla. The chum told Cynthia's $ parents and her father got in touch with the naval authorities. A search of the destroy CT Billingsley resulted in te discovery of the girl and she was put ashore at Mayport. Fla.
 Poole's message also brought about q general search Of vessels in South Atlantic waters and four other girls We're found Besides the Poole girl, the navy had been informed that one girl each was discovered on the light cruiser Concord, the de- stroyer Sands and the destroyer re- pair ship Dobbins
 The four gave their names as Billy Lacer. Rose Mcclure, Flossie Rice and Ramilda Avary. Put ashore at Key West by the Concord, they said they had shipped" at New Orleans to return to their homes in Phila- deiphia where they were employed as waitresses. All were given fares back to New Orleans
 Cynthia Poole was said to have told the commander of the BiIlingslev that she met a sailor named Kramer at soft drink stand in St. Peters, burg. She added that Kramer, who is being held by the authorities, per suaded her to board the destroyer.

the glory of the dynasty and the power of the Fatherland. ] beg
 Your Majesty to accept an express sion Of my profound devotion" l The premier sent a squad of
 special inspectors to Milan with
 orders to leave no stone unturned to bring those responsible for the
 outrage to justice. He kept in touch with all developments by private telephone line to Milan. Several 1 members of the special court for the defense of the state also went to investigate. Every other municipal and national facility for running
 down the perpetrators was set in motion.
 IL was due to the siowness of the royal procession that the king es- capped being in the midst of the disaster. The bomb was placed at the base of one of the electric light lamp posts lining Piazza Giulio Ce- sare and exploded about the time the king was scheduled to pass the spot.
 In some official quarters In Milan the opinion was expressed that the attempt was not aimed at the king himself, but that terrorists took the occasion of his presence at an im- mense gathering to commit a crime similar to that which on March eS, 1921. occurred in the Diana theater In Milan when bomb killed 2l persons and wounded 70.
 This theory was strengthened when survey of the Piazza showed that none of the splinters from the bomb or the lamp post fell at the nearest spot where the monarch would have been had the procession been moving on schedule. It was pointed out that +ys route the king was to travel was published in ad- vance.
 Having learned of the catastro- phe, the king proceeded with the 1 inauguration of the fair, for which | he had come to Milan, and then l hastened to the hospital where the | wounded were.

.LINDbERGH MORE
 THAN AMBASSADOR
Serves Half Dozen Various Coy.
 ernment Departments

Washington, April 1s (UP)-Col Charles \. Lindbergh has become one of the most important and in- fuential government officials, in an
 unofficial way. He is serving half a dozen government departments di- rectly and in advisory capacities, and has qualified as q super-lobbyist and salesman for the idea of com mercial aviation, in addition to his
 flying ambassa dorship."
 The department of state, com- merce, the post office, war and navy have employed his services directly in the last few months. Dwight Nor row, |. s. ambassador at Mexico, is credited with responsibility for the invitation which resulted in Lind bergh's nonstop flight to Mexico City. which caused new expressions of good will between the two Amer ican republics and led to the flyers triumphal tour of South and Central American countries.
 Lindbergh has appeared before three congressional committees here advocating bills to provide more pay for military flyers and 10 provide for extending the congress sional frank to the airmai.
 Government Aids Flicr
 Practically all of Lindbergh's ac- tivities since his arrival in Paris have been under direct government sanction. It was at the govern ment's request that he returned inn mediately on the cruiser Memphis, instead of following his original idea of seeing the world from an airplane. The flyer himself dis closed this after his return.
 The Guggenheim Foundation for the Promotion of Aeronautics has sponsired his flights in the United States, but the govern ment has been active through its many agencies in promoting his ventures. The commerce depart rhanics and secretaries for his na- tionwide tour in the Spirit of St. Louis in which he visited every state to make speeches in promo ton of aviation.
 Took Up HOO in Week

above all at the demonstration of patriotism by a hundred thousand persons in the square before the cathedral.
 The article suggested that the per- petrators should be judged by the special tribunal for the defense of the state and should be sent from Milan to Rome for trial. It con- cludes:

The incident began in the morn

down the Italian consulate flag,
which had been raised in anniver-

The consul protested to the gov

RAINFALL IN ENGLAND
Last Fourteen Years Have Been Be-
low Average.
By Science Serutce

bD science S6TCtC6
LONDON, May 25.-A survey of
two centuries Of rain in England
shows that the rainfall of 1927 was
1914 per cent of the normal and was
exceeded by only eight other years.
The records, dating back to 1927,
show that the three years 1853, 1852,
and 1872 were markedly wetter than
1927, with 1856, 1877, and IA per cent,
respectively.
There was no year so dry as 1921
with only SO per cent of the normal
since 1888. The reports show that
there were nine consecutive wet
years from 1875 to 1883, while the
longest run Of dry years was only
six, from 1900 to 1905.
A remarkable feature of the rain
fall of recent years is that in all
but two of the last fourteen years
the fall has been below average.
