NEW BILLS SUBJECT
OF FORUM SPEAKER
Undersecretary of Treasury
viii Tell Radio Audience
About New Paper Money.

The American people will hear all
about the new small sized paper money
soon to be issued in place of the present
bills, when Ogden L. Mills of New York,
undersecretary of the Treasury, speaks
in the National Radio Forum, arranged
by The Washington Star and sponsored
by the Columbia Broadcasting System,
tomorrow. He will deliver his address
through station WABC in New York
City over a nationwide hookup.
The first of the new small bills will
be available at all banks on Wednes-
day morning, July 10, and it will be
Mr.. Mills purpose to explain to the
people why the Government is chang
ing the size of the currency, tell of
the methods of distribution and make
some announcement of future plans Of
issue.
Much interest attaches to the ques-
ton, especially in view of the fact that
only limited amount of the new cur
rency, in the denominations of one,
two. five. ten and twenty dollar bills,
will be available. Both the new small
size bills and the old large size bills
will be in circulation together for some
time, and the public is eager to know
many things about the new money
and how fast it will replace the old.
Undersecretary Mills, as the ranking
official Of the Treasury Department next
to Secretary Mellon, will speak with
authority on the Governments money
program. He has been associated at
the Treasury with Secretary Mellon
since March 4, 1927, and prior to that
time occupied post of national promi-
nence in Congress, where he was a
member of important committees, in
cluding the House ways and means
committee.
It is considered likely that Mr.. Mills
may discuss also some of the fascinat-
ing details of manufacture of the new
supply of paper money-a prodigiouS
task, accomplished in Washington at
the Bureau of Engraving and Printing,
which also prints stamps for the Post
Office Department. The Bureau of En-
craving and Printing is under jurisdic-
ton Of the Treasury Department.

SEEKING QUARTERS
FOR FARM BOARD
Smoot Orders Survey With idea
of Making Room in Southern
Building.

The new Federal Farm Board may
be housed in the Southern Railway
Building, which is now being taken over
by the Government. Senator Smoot Of
Utah, chairman of the Public Buildings
Commission, said today that he was
having a survey made to determine
whether it would be possible to place
the Farm Board in that building. He
intimated that if the required space
could be set aside for the Farm Board
the board would have its headquarters
in that building.
1t has been estimated that the Farm
Board will require $4,000 feet Of floor
space. The Southern Railway Build
ing has upward of 100000 feet Of floor
space, but already other department
bureaus of the Government have been
assigned space there. The problem is
to work in the Farm Board along with
these other Government agencies.
Realizing that it Is the hope of the
administration to get the Farm Board
to work as soon as possible, Senator
Smoot will do everything possible to
have quarters ready for the board as
soon as the President has completed
the boards personnel.

MISSING A|RMEN
TAKE AIR AGAIN
Location of 'Untin' Bowler,
Unheard From After EnCoun-
tering Storms, Is Unknown.
BY the Associated Press.


OTTAWA, July 5.-The 'Untiu'
Bowler, the Sikorsky amphibian manned
by Parker Cramer, Bob Cast, co-piiot,
and Robert Woods, aviation editor of
the Chicago Tribune, was in the air at
9:37 o'clock this morning. according to
message received here by the federal
wireless station at Port Burwell, on the
Hudson Straits.
The station heard the plane calling
at that hour. The signals were loud.
Reports from Port Burwell indicate
that the weather along the Hudson
Straits is bad. The government station
is broadcasting the weather reports
every other hour for the benefit of the
flyers.
While, in the absence of other news,
the planes situation could only be con-
jectured, the Burwell message was taken
to indicate one of two things; either
that the 'Untin' Bowler took the air
in order to receive the weather reports.
or, in view of the loudness of the
signals, that it was continuing its flight.
Anxiety earlier had been felt for the
plane as radio stations sought to locate
the ship, last reported at Rupert House,
trading post on the lower extremity
OF James Bay.

SHIP ENCOUNTERS BAD WEATHER.
Chicago Loses Track of Craft as Radio
Is Silent.


Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO, July 5.-The "Untin''
Bowler, the pathfinding amphibian
plane which started wednesday on it's
way to Berlin, today was somewhere in
the wild country north of Rupert House.
Its journey was accomplished in the
race OF unfavorable weather conditions.
No communication from Parker D.
Cramer, co-pilot, who is handling the
Bowler's low-wave radio set, was
picked up at the radio plant in Elgin,
Ill, where constant watch has been
maintained since the take-off after $40
pm. yesterday. Until then, however,
there had been fairly constant stream
of information, which led to the belief
that the big plane had reached its next
destination, Great Whale, on the east
ern shore of Hudson Bay.
Message Tells of Storm.
Promptly at $50 am. yesterday
Pilots Robert Cast and Cramer and
Robert Wood, historian on the trip, took
off from Remi Lake, Ontario. where
they had refueled and spent the night.
Here they severed their last wire con-
nectionS with the rest of the world and
swung out into the trackless wastes of
the Sub-Arctic.
visibility clear. Ceiling unlimited.
Scattered clouds. All o. K. Cramer''
was the text of message received at
6:45 am.
Another message, caught at 1921, in
dicated that the Untin Bowler had
reached the shores of James Bay. The
words Meyers, Rupert House, were re-
peated several times. Then q cryptic
'eight five" eight five" and 'iand"
were added. 1t was at first believed
that Cramer intended to say that they
were landing at Rupert House, but as
the hum of the motor in tempo show
ing that it was in flight continued it
was decided that they had changed
plans and gone on.
From $40 until 1912 o'clock, with
brief periods of fading out, the signals
continued to come through. Then there
was lapse in which nothing was heard
until 1:13 pm. From that time until
$40 Cramer repeated his cali letters at
frequent intervals.
Meanwhile the radio station at Port
Burwell, on Cape Chidley, operated by
the Canadian department Of marine
and fisheries, reported it had received
from the Bowler a code message stat
ing that it had passed Rupert House,
but was turning back because Of low
visibility. This was before the long
halt, and it was taken as apparent that
conditions had improved in the early
afternoon.
May Have Abandoned Plans.
Under the conditions, it probably was
impossible for the flyers to attempt
their announced program of a 17-hour
hope that would carry them to Mount
Evans Observatory, in Greenland, where
they are to take the long jump over
the mile-thick ice cap which has never
been crossed by any plane before.
