driving rain and biting wind. Presi.
dent Hoover with the first lady be-
side him, drove for Il miles today In
an open automobile from Dearborn
to this city to greet thousands Of
people who jammed the plaza in front
Of the city hall.
The purpose of the visit was to re.
ceive an official welcome from Gov.
ernor Fred w. Green and Mayor John
c. Lodge but it gave the people Of
Detroit their opportunity to glimpse
a president for the first time in more
than a decade.
Throughout the long drive the
presidents car passed through an al
most solid lane of humanity. All
along the line the chief executive re-
ceived an ovation. with the crowds
cheering and automobile horns. bells
and clappers adding to the din.
Get Wet During Drive
Although both Mr.. and Mrs. Hoover
had rain coats thrown about their
shoulders during the drive they were
fairly wet upon arriving at the city
hall In this building Mayor Lodge
was presented to Mr.. and Mrs. Hoo
yer and escorted them short way to-
the main entrance where a covered
platform had been erected.
Mr.. Hoover was given tumultuouS
welcome by the thousands of persons,
most of whom stood in the rain with.
out protection even Of umbrellas.
Governor Green. who had vel.
coined the president upon his arrival
at Dearborn early III the morning,
stepped forward to the micrOphone
but it was more than minute be-
fore he could make himself heard

to thank you again for your cordial

Data on the teacher training prob

body two weeks ago.

pard and Dean A. .. Weeks Of the

Others attending were E. p. Grain

partment OF Public Instruction.
Pick had completed about half Of
hts survey when the conference ad-
journcd at noon. This afternoon he
will discuss the management Of the
normal schools and other institutions
problems relating to the certificatton
Of teachers and the manner In which
the normal schools may meet higher
standards for such institutions a.
fixed by the north central conference
to which control Of such matters has
been delegated.
Advocates Intensive Course
Reaffirming his view that normal
schools should give an intensive one
year course to prepare teachers for
work in the rural schools, Pick said
subjects which he believes should be
stressed are: Rural life problems
practice teaching and observation
rural school management. general
teaching methods. art and music
English fundamentals. educational
psychology. children's literature, agrt-
culture and nature study, and hy-
rienc and sanitation.
It might be arranged. he said. SO
that all persons attending the normal
schools could take the courses, re-
gardless If they intended to attend
for one or four years, and that the
courses might be SO arranged that
credit could be given those persons
seeking q degree.
Another feature suggested Is to re-
quire applicants for entrance to 9
normal school to pass an examination
to make sure they actually know the
subjects to be taught up to the eight
grade. Those who failed In such ex-
animation would be given special
work to correct the deficiency and
would have to take = special sum-
mer course, either before or after the
regular term, before the course would
be regarded as complete.

First Time in History So Many
Persons Have Been Car
ried Into Air
DESIGNED TO CARRY FORTY
Giant Oornier Plane Takes to
Air With Greatest Ease
After Short Run
DESIGNED TO CARRY FORTY

Altenrhcin. Switzerland. Oct. 2l--
R,-The huge u : engined flying
Do-X.. which was launched here last
July. today rade an amazing one
hour flight with human load of 169,
the first time in the history of avi-
alton that SO many persons have been
carried into the air on any convey
ance.
The giant Dornier plane took off at
l1:l5 a. M. and landed just one hour
later The machine flew over Lake
Constance, her motors working fault
lessly and landed with her 5l-ton
load at 1915 p. m. without hitch.
The Do-X carried 159 passengers
and a crew Of 10. She had made pre-
vious test flights but this was the
first time that SO great load was
taken up.
Carries 40 Normally
The flying boat. which may be used
for transatlantic crossing for the
purpose of trying out her capacities
was built in the greatest secrecy. She
was designed to carry 40 passengers
normally but has accommodation for
100 II necessary. Her II engines can
develop a total of 5000 horsepower
and each engine can be treated indi-
vidually without affecting its neigh
bOrs.
The Do-X measures $50 feet from
tip to tail. Its wings arc 10 feet
thick and $50 feet from wing tip to
wing tip. Six great turrets project
from each wing and each turret is
equipped with two engines Of 500
horsepower. The turrets are manned
by mechanics who can walk along a
passage on the inside of the wings
from one turret to another.
When the Do-X was launched last
July she carried "a tons Of weight
and was able to get into the air with
the greatest ease after take-off run
Of only 500 yards. other trials were
similarly successful.
Has Three Decks
One of the features of the plane is
her three decks while another is that
the machine can fly with only eight
motors In use.
DR.. Dornier built the plane at Al
tenrhein which Is on the Swiss side
Of the German.SwisS frontier because
Of the limitations on German aircraft
imposed by the treaty of Versailles.
While the ship was being built
there were many skeptics who MAIN
tanned that 1t would never fly owing
to its enormous weight. Aviation ex-
perts. however. were enthusiastic
about her ability to take the air.

Atlee Pomerene Presents Clos
ing Arguments Of Gov
ernment's Case
DOHEMY'S LETTER Is READ
Wise Old Man 6lurted Out He
Expected to Make $780,
600 on Deal

Washington, Oct. 2l.-lP)-Final
arguments In the bribery trial Of
Albert b. Falls, were started today
when Atlec Pomerene. special gov
ernment counsel. told the jury which
will determine Falls guilt or inno-
cencc they must determine whether
the 500. 900 obtained by the defend
ant from Edward L. DOheny was =
loan or not.
Fall, who arrived q few minutes
before court opened. walked into the
room and to his chair. For the last
week he had been wheeled to his
place in an invalid chair. He was
supported by attendants but appeared
stronger than at the start Of the trial
in which the government charges he
received 100000 from Doheny for
awarding the latter company lease
to the Elk Hills naval oil reserve in
California.

The former interior secretary con-
ferred for 10 minutes with William

Justice william Hitz to mount the
bench.

layed about an hour while counsel
conferred with Justice Hitz on dis
puted prayers each side wanted In
cluded In his charge to the jury.
pomerene read . letter from Fall
to Doheny before the Elk Hills lease
was made which showed, he said, the
latter was being kept informed OF the
oil reserve situation" The prosecutor
also read the famous policy letter In
which Fall had inserted after the
clause, These leases shall be awarded
by competitive bidding" the words
and otherwise" and said he would
give the reason for this insertion.
Points Oct Improprily
Referring to the 100000 which
Doheny gave to Fall, Pomerene as
serted "there Is not man or woman
on the Jury who does not realize the
impropriety Of q public official ac-
cepting money from . man dealing
with his department.
