Telegram From One of Pair
Proves False Report
When Traced.

BHI-nited Press
YUMA, Ariz., Oct. 1.-two young
aviatrices, who had ambitions to set
a new women's endurance flight
record, have vanished in the far
southwest, apparently much to the
mystery of their parents and GER
tainly to the discomfort of the po-
lice.
The girls, Peggy Paxton, 10, and
Lucille Wallingford, 25, left their
homes in Los Angeles Fridev. Mo-'-
day, v. L. Paxton, father Of Peggy
received a telegram saying the 49,
were safe in Yuma.
Today police and newspaper men
had searched the town from hotels
to quarantine stations and found
no trace of them.
The girls were seen last at Patton
airport in Whittier, Cal, where they
had gone to arrange details of their
proposed flight. Both of them are
fliers of more than local note in Los
Angeles.
When police were unable to find
them here, they speculated on the
possibilities of romance and adven
ture having 1ured the girls from Los
Angeles but found no evidence to
substantiate their speculati0ns.
Yuma is no large city and if the
girls actually are here, as reported
they must be hiding under the pro-
verbal bushel, police said
No planes landed here Monday
eliminating the possibility they came
as passengers by air.

Pitted against the terrible cruel
power of Dracula is Abraham Van

Jonathan Harker, Lucy'S sweetheart.
And if you have read the book, you

Without going more into the plot,
I will state that the stage version
has been masterfully arranged for
thrills from the book of Bran
Stoker. All of the more terrible
things that the vampire does in the
story has been crowded in the &C
ton of the several hours required
to do it on the stage
Now as to the cast. ''Dracula"
has as effective a cast as ever

Many Of those present in the cast

best in the second act when he was

audience. Splendid work
Magnificently cruel is the work Of
Bernard Jukes as r. M. Renfeld,
the lunatic. I know / would not
want to play this mailman role
night after night. But it is mar

Joan Colburn is Lucy. Here is a
difficult role to impart realism, but
she does it with magnificent ease
and sureness. Fine work. The bal

The stage settings and the many

LOS ANGELES, July 8.-(P-
new aerial navigation instrument,

many of the dangers of night and
blind flying and eliminates the ne

device resembles a compass with
an indicator sticking up in the CEN

force, the inventor says, and there
is nothing to get out of order, there
being only two working parts.

New England Hopes
For New Factories
Despite Its Losses

BOSTON, July 8.-(P)-The mi
grafton of industries from one sec
ton Of the country to another,
shown in recent surveys to have
reached the point Of a major in
dustrial movement, has raised
hopes in New England.
The treasurer of the New Eng
land council, John S. Lawrence,
told a recent meeting of the Ma
tional Association of Real Estate
Boards that there is nothing new
about industrial migration" and
that New England has been
watching this process going on for
years"
He referred to the migration of
New England's rxtile industry to
the southern states, saying that
this industry constitutes only five
per cent of the total manufactures
in Connecticut and Vermont, 10
per cent in Maine and Massachu-
sets and 20 per cent in Rhode
Island.
In the past, he said, commune
ties relied largely on single indus
tries or a limited number, whereas
today the tide Of economic devel-
opment has changed definitely to-
ward a diversification of activities
within our communities"
New England, he declared, well
coined migration Of industry and
economic changes. "She has been
successfully meeting these prob
lens for over 100 years."

STONE WORKS
UP TO MINUTE
Brownsville Marble And
Granite Works Grow
Under Wigington

Bringing his equipment up to the
last minute, j. A. Wigington, owner
Of the Brownsville Marble & Gran
tie Works at GAL Levee has ordered
a sand blast machine which he eX-
poets to place into operation in the
near future.
The sand blast machine will be
used for cutting and carving in
marble and granite. In the past
this has been done with air ham
mers. When Wigington came here
three years ago and took over the
shop, all work was being done by
hand chiseling.
Wigington says that the installa-
ton Of machinery does not lower
the quality Of work done on monu-
mentS, corner stones, etc. While
the work is machine made to a
certain extent, it merely puts bet
ter tools in the hand of the work
man, he declares. The human
hand has to guide the sand blast
machine just as it did the chisel
in olden days.
The sand blast is an interesting
machine. There are several types
of them but the principle of opera
ton is the same in all. The ma
chine to be used by Wigington will
throw a stream Of compressed air
and sand against the stone to be
cut at a pressure of one hundred
pounds to the square inch. This
cuts the stone much quicker than
was possible with. the old hand
chisels.
Wigington specializes in Vermont
marble and Texas granite but can
obtain any type Of stone desired.
He keeps the two mentioned stones
in stock. e.
The local business is Is years
old. Wigington took it over three
years ago and has made many
modern improvements in equip.
ment and methods used. 4
In installing the sand blast
machine" Wiggington says, we are,
trying to give the public what they.
want. This is the latest machine
on the market and we feel that
the public is entitled to any reduc-
tons that we may be able to make
through it."

TOLEDO WORKS
ON TERMINAL
Wharves Being Built to Ac-
commodate Ocean Co
ing Vessels

TOLEDO, July 3.-P)-Work on
the largest terminal on the Great
Lakes, large enough to serve ocean
going steamers, will be begun this
summer by the Hooking Valley rail-
road.
1t will be built on Pressure Isle, in
the northeast section Of Toledo,
where the Maumee river joins Maui
NEE bay in the outlying reaches OF
the Toledo harbor. On this site
formerly was located n OF the best
known amusement resorts on the
Great Lakes.
The development calls for an i'm
mediate expenditure of S6.129,000
There will be a frontage on the wa
ter Of 2 2 miles.
Four slips will accommodate lake
freighters. There will be a con-
crete dock 200 feet wide and $4,000
feet long, a warehouse 1000 feet
long and miles of railroad tracks in
the loading, holding and support
ing yards.
At each of three of the slips there
will be two coal loading machines
with a dumping capacity of nearly
a car a minute. There will be ore
machines to unload 1873 tons Of iron
ore an hour. each bucket holding
II tons. The fourth slip will have
space for two elevators and a mill.
Back of the handling and loading
docks will be a supporting yard
with a capacity of .5.O75 cars. The
present Hooking Valley docks in
Toledo have a capacity Of only 1000
cars.
The Toledo Terminal railroad will
join the south end of the develop
ment and will shunt cars into the
Presque Isle area.
Construction will require a huge
amount of dredging from the dock
line to the present channel. All the
earth dredged will be used on the
fill, back of the dock line for the
yard railroad tracks.

MORGAN BEHIND
MERGER MOVES
Consultations Viewed AS
Merely The American
Way
BY WILLIAM r. KUHNS

ASSOCIATED Press Feature Writer
NEW YORK, July 8. P)-Ask
Wall street where the merger parade
is going and the echo answers
''Where?"
AS far as can be. learned from
several dependable sources of in
formation, many Of the men res
ponslble for the current swing to-
ward consultations in finance and
industry are working these long
summer hours e~ffecting mergers for
the JOY of merging.
ut simply is the American way
said one who has been something
more than a spectator Of recent
mergers. This is a period of
drawing together fragments of in
dustries and small banks into
smoothly working units. There
have been similar periods in the
past. Next year it may be some
thing else
There is the simple and alluring
runor, of course, circulating for
many months, that the Morgan
interests" in the east, the insult
interests" in the middle west and
some shadowy group in the far west
have agreed to divide the country
into three spheres of influence for
the purpose Of developing power
and utilities.
J.. P. Morgan and his associates
have pushed vigorously to the fore,
In the size of their mergers, in va
riety and the skill with which they
achieve necessary changes in man
agement and organization, the third
generation of Morgans has distanced
most other banking proups.
Electrical power, oil, food, trans
portation and gas are among the
commodities in which, n by one,
J. P. Morgan and his cabinet have
effected important consultations
since the beginning Of the year.
At present there are three great
eastern power combines that are
Morgan financed and Morgan a6-
ministered. Each has a host Of
allied units and all are linked in a
network of super-companies.
Certain familiar names in the dir
e~ctorates and among the executive
Of these concerns run like strong
threads through the entire group.
The three companies are the United
corporation, headed by George H.
Howard; the Commonwealth and
Southern corporation, controlled
by B. @. Cobb, and the Niagara
Hudson. headed by Ray P. Stevens,
with others said to be in the pro-
cess Of formation.
Superimposed- on these is the
American SuperpoWer corporation.
Closely allied, as a management
system of properties touching SO
states of the union, is the Electric
Bond and Share corporation. The
latter concern. owns the American
and Foreign Power company. which
is developing vast properties in
South America and Asia.
