MUSTAPHA MAY
PASS ON TOMB
Turks to Construct Fine
SepuIchre For Kemal's
Own Approval

ANGORIA, Turkey, July 20.-(P
Turks little and big are digging in
their pockets for piasters to con-
tribute to the building of a mighty
sepulchre worthy of housing the
body Of Gazi Mustapha nal
when the first preside Of the
Turkish republic dies. The while
they pray that his life may be I0Pg,
the citizens Of the young repubyic
have decided to construct his tomb
at once, SO as to be sure that it
meets with his approval.
Millions of liras are to be ex-
pended on the erection Of the Pan
theon which is to rise On the ruins
Of the ancient TO 'ess that towers
over the new capital city Of mush-
room growth. For miles in every
direction from the ~ i that sur
round Angora, the lofty tomb Will
be visible and commanding.
The building is to constitute a
memorial to he Turk republic,
while in its ~catacor1bs will one day
be placed the bis or President
Renal and Whatever other leaders
Of the new regime may W voted
worthy Of such hon1- by the ma
tional assembly.
The construction of the Pantheon
is one Of the most important points
in the program for the reconstruc-
ton Of AngOra p-esented by the
German expert, Hermann Jansen,
whose plan for the future eXpan-
sion of the city has been unani-
mously approved by the Turkish
governments commission. Every
man and in Turkey Will
be expected to contribute to the
fund.

australian Ace Turns Hopes
TOWARD EMgIdMd-Ameyicn Hop

LONDON, July 20.-P-Captain
Charles Kingsford- Smith has ambi-
tions.
Not satisfied with the fame he
gained in his 7,80O-mile trans-Paci-
fic flight from Oakland, Calf, to
Sydney, Australia, a year ago, and
more recently in his 12,000-mile
journey from Australia to England,
the Australian airman is making
preparations for a projected trans
Atlantic flight from England to the
United States. y.
He did not wait to complete his
Australia England venture to an
nounced his proposed westward
transatlantic flight, but told
newspapermen in Rome, where he
stopped en- route from Sydney TO
London, that he had decided upon
the England to America journey.
Immediately following his arrival
in London, mechanics were called
to overhaul the motors of the his
toric Southern Cross, while Cap
tain Kingsford-Smith and Capt.
Charles T. P. Ulm, his navigator,
began their search for the most
feasible route for their newest adj
venture.
Two routes + under conSidera-
ton. The most likely-the southern
route-callS for a takeoff from the
mainland from Dakar, Senegal, af-
ter a flight from England with a
stop in Spain. This would call for
an ocean hop to South America and
the northward journey to the
United States by easy stages.
While the three-motored South
ern Cross is being overhauled me-
chanicS will determine whether the
monoplane's weight may be lessen
ed to enable it to take off with Suf-
ficient fuel for at least As hours
flying. If this can be accomplished
the Austrian flier may decide upon
a nonstop flight from Croydon 70
New York.
Captain Kingsford-Smith and
Captain Ulm first demonstrated
their capabilities as long distance
flierS in 1923 when they blazed the
first air trail across the Pacific in
the Southern Cross.
They took off from Oakland Nav
81 and landed at Sydney June 10.
They covered 1900 miles in less
than 80 flying hours. Stops were
made IN Honolulu, Suva, Fiji
islands, and Brisbane, Australia.
They were accompanied by two
Americans, Capt. Harry Lyon and
James Warren.
Their first attempt to fly from
Sydney to London in March ended
when the Southern Cross was
forced down in the wildS OF northern
Australia.
The four members of the planes
crew, which included two Ameri-
cans, Harold A. Litchfield, naviga-
tor, and Thomas H. McWilliams,
radio operator, were lost for a fort
night until they were rescued by

DODGE COPIES
With TRAFFIC
New Six Car Meets With
Present Day Highway
And Street Demand

Increasing traffic on streets and
highways Of America offers a
unique challenge to automobile
manufacturers who are seeking to
adapt their cars to the multiple
complexities Of modern tranSporta-
ton, according to Jesse Denett, To-
cal Dodge Brothers dealer.
To meet the demands of present
day motoring, new standards OF
performance and safety have been
developed by engineers" said MI.
bennett. Typical Of this, is the
fact that the new Dodge Brothers
six was built to specifications de-
signed to cope with all conditions
encountered in heavy traffic. In
this model, engineering skill has
produced a al with maximum fleX-
ibility and a~cceleration, in traffic
or away from signal lights, a turn
ing circle of small diameter for
easy parking, four-Wheel, hydraulic,
internal-expanding brakes that al
ford positive control, convenient
controls requiring the minimum Of
effort in driving, mono-piece body
free from annoying SqueakS and
rattles, fuel economy that provides
the greatest mileage possible when
the engine is idling in traffic.
ut is only a matter of a few
seconds to accelerate from a stand
ing start through gears to Is miles
an hour, or from five to IS miles
an hour in high, with the new
Dodge Brothers six" Mr.. bennett
continued. Such power and fleX-
Utility when protected with posi-
tive braking facilities insure the
greatest degree Of safety. State and
municipal officials have recognized
these features by taking the me-
chanical condition Of cars into
consideration when handling traf-
fic cases.
1.-The Dodge car can be turned
completely around in a street only
500 feet wide, the short turning
radius providing easy parking. The
ease Of operation, convenient con-
trolls and full vision afforded by the
Mono-piece body construction sim
plify its operation under every con-
dition."

STREAMS RUIN
OLD CATHEDRAL
Religious Rites Suspended
AS Collapse of Ancient
Shrine Feared
BY C. p. NUTTER

MEXICO CITY, July 2O.-(P=
Holding of the first religious SER
vices, following settlement of the
governments dispute with the Ro-
man Catholic church in the great
national cathedral Of Mexico City,
an event looked forward to by mil
lions of the devout, failed to ma
~terialize because Of the dangerous
condition of the four-century old
shrine. For years it has been
threatened with partial collapse.
The massive cathedral, said to be
the largest and Oldest on the Amer
lean continent, has been closed for
weeks with workmen busy in its re-
pair. 1t likely will require months,
perhaps a year, thoroughly to
strengthen it and repair the ravages
Of time and the elements on the be-
loved shrine.
$1,000, 900 Repairs
Announcement has been made
that the repairs may cost as much
as 81, 900, 600. Much of this money
will be spent in damming under
ground streams which have washed
away the supports of the great mass
of stone and caused it to settle at
an incongruous angle.
These streams, together with a
great lake of mud underlying Mex
leo City, often wreck the best laid
plans Of builders and architects
here, sometimes within a few years
after construction. The slight sub
terranean shocks, often felt in
Mexico City, usually start and then
help along the sinking process.
Beneath the cathedral it is plan
ned to sink great caissons down to
the underground currents, and into
these pour tons of cement for the
combined purpose of damming the
destructive waters and Of supplying
a solid base for the cathedral sup
ports.
To Straighten Walls
Once this is done, the Workmen
will attempt to straighten the inside
supports OF the building and will
try to rectify in some respect the
slanting walls. Cracks caused by
the settling will be patched later.
The cathedral, occupying one
side of the national plaza or Zocalo,
is probably the most famous mem
orial Of the ConquiStadores of New
Spain. Started -oon after the Con-
quest on the site o., and with stone
taken from, a great Aztec pyramid,
the shrine was more than a hum
dred years in building. A large
part of it is constructed Ct hewn
volcanic stone, brought to the spot
by the Aztecs or their predecessors.

Horse Is Coming Back

TIE passing Of the horse and the iask
which has been going Oh steadily since
the development Of the automobile, truck ana
tractor, has progressed little Sit TOO RAPIDLY.
and some Of the passing win have to be re-
tracted. according 70 the Bureau of Animal
Industry Of the Department of Commerce.
1t Is estimated that during the calendar
year 1928 the equine population Of the country
was cut by more than half o million horses
and $1,000 jacks. This reduction was too
great. in view Of the demand for the aninfsls.
and experts believe that there win be an In.
sistent demand during the next few years for
high-grade stock. The colt production at the
present rate Is believed to be only about SO
per cent Of what it should be to meet the
needs Of the country.
The growing interest in horseback riding
Is making q great demand for pure-bred stock
for saddle purposes, while high grade draft
stock IS still eagerly sought.
Prices have been going up steadily and this
is likely to stimulate the breeding Of thorough
bred stock. Unless the demand becomes unduly
stimulated. three or four years should see the
needs Of the country met ass-...e.

the creak of an automobile brake came through

His big features stiffened with displeasure.

Miss jimmy Pickens was coming down the
aisle.
But not the Miss jimmy pickens he remem-
bered; frail, little old woman with bent back
and brown time spots on her wrinkled cheeks,
who wore shabby clothes and walked slowly,
leaning on cane
A swift sense came back to him of the Miss
jimmy whose foot had tapped the floor as
positively as woodpecker's beak against tree:
whose back had been as straight as child's:
whose movements had been marked with crisp
decisivensss; whose clothes had been mag

Or had they only seemed so to the ragged

He couldn't tell; but then and always she
had been Miss jimmy Pickens, and . member Of
the super-supreme court which in the last
analysis settled everything Of importance In
that countryside. No Negro in the State had
ever openly crossed one Of them and lived out
the day. He looked with swift hope at Draper
and saw that things had changed.
Something inhered in Miss jimmy that stood
for power, but Draper didn't see it. He waited
there in naughty, calculating silence, watching
her progress down the aisle, through con-
temptuous half-closed eyes, unimpressed and
unafraid.
The consciousness that the issue lay solely
between him and Draper grew tight about
Woodie's heart. Miss jimmy faded out for him
almost before she had settled herself in the
chair that some one brought from the little
room behind the melodeon.
And Draper, too as soon as he began to talk
again, forgot her. His voice took on the sound
Of something started on its way which could
not be stopped-not even by the preacher him
