 EXILED IN EUROPE
Afghan King Joins Turk, Per- sian, and HejaZ Rulers

London. Aug. 16 UP)-Europe ic sheltering another royal exile from the east, ex-King Amanuliah of Afghanistan, He has come to i've in the western civilization that cost Linn his throne. Amanullah con- pletes a quartette of former eastern potentates who have been forced to leave their native lands and seek refuge in the west; the cx-Sultan of Turkey, the ex-Shah of Persia anI eX-King Husain of Mecca already had resigned themselves to life in strange lands.
 Amanullah has always liked Eu- rope, and it is therefore expected that his life in exile will be happier than that of the other three eX- monarchs. His beautiful wife. Souri, ya, is credited with having tauGh; nim to prefer the ways of the west.
 AS a farmer in Italy he will have ample opportunity to reflect upon the comparative values of eastern and western civilizations, Amanul . lah has at least learned that the two will not mix. As he enters upon his new existence it is interesting to speculate whether his life will re- semble that of any of the three other potentates; the Sultan is still every inch a Turk of the old school, proud and poor in his exile; the Shah is quartered in Paris clinging 10 the saiety that has always been his life, although he has been reduced to

Several Moves Considered Several possibilities have been dis cussed: Separate agreements between the creditor nations, excepting Great Britain and Germany on the matter of reparations and, as trading point evacuation of the Rhineland; i; mere adjournment to meet again at Geneva in September, when the as sembly of the League of Nations convenes; or call for another con- ference a few weeks hence.
 Meanwhile, of course, the tentative agreement which has been reached on evacuation of the Rhineland probably will be voided; the Dawes plan. about to die a natural death. will be continued in operation; and other developments soothing to the peace of Europe which had been counted upon will be withheld.
 The conference was not without hope that the fatal stalemate would be avoided, but its hope was a for lorn one. It involved one of the two national camps backing up on pro- positions reiterated so often that re- treat will be possible only at the eX- pense of loss of face and and pres tige.
 Private conversations between the various delegations continued to- day but the conferees worked with the apathy of people who seemed impressed with the futility of their task.

 Honor Guest" Escapes

Palatine. Ill.,, Aug. 16 P-Th' reason Palatine didn't dedicate its new, escape proof jail this week was because the prisoner, capt d1- ed especially for the event, es- capped.
 The dedication was to have been held Tuesday. On Monday night, therefore, policemen SCOUT cd the town for a jail guest, in ally arresting A. L. Failka of Chi cago. The following day found Failka wa3 gone. He had decid . ed that the escape proof jail was merely figure of speech.
 Chicago police yesterday ar rested Failka and held him on a charge of Jail breaking for Pala- tlne officers. It is not unlikely that when the Palatine jail is ded- icated next week its prisoner will be Failka, and the charge against him will be escaping from the iail being dedicated.

 The ship headed for Portland and from there flew directly south to San Francisco Bay Portlanders fail ed to see the craft, but no fear was entertained for the safety of the ftiers, as they planned to pass high above the Oregon city, It was ex- pected to reach the bay area in time for refueling at dawn.
 Chief BlcsSeS Plane
 A guttural blessing from the lips of old Chief Garry. of the Spokane Indians. sent the ship on its way.
 My children of the sum-" he said, "call upon the Sun God to bring them back safe and happy" This same prayer followed countless gen erations of Spokane braves on the field of battle

 He used the Flathead dialect He also told the spectators that to the Indians Manner was known as "Pike Ululin," or Silver Eagle. The f1ier was adopted by the tribe two years ago.

 Turns Toward North

 At 800 a. m. (S:00 D. m. E. 8. I Thursday) the Graf Zeppelin radio ed information to the Soviet authori- ties here that it was compelled to proceed to the north and avoid Mos COW because of unfavorable wealth CT Previously Dr. Hugo Eckener, it's master, asked and secured per mission to change the agreed upon itinerary in this wise.
 Dr. Eckener pleaded unfavorab'e weather conditions. The authorities replied that flight by the airship over this capital was urgently de- sirable but they left to its command CT the final decision, depending upon meteorological conditions with which he found himself faced.
 It was believed here that possibly Dr. Eckener. finding tail winds which helped him northeastward at the comparatively rapid rate of 75 miles an hour, felt constrained to take advantage of them rather than to steer due eastward from the Lat vian frontier over Moscow.
 Although the Moscow press prom inently displayed the announcement that the Zeppelin would fly over this city during the night, escorted by an air squadron. the Moscovites' inter- est was not aroused By 100 a. m. streets were deserted. and from that time on a group of foreign corres- pondents, wandering in and out of the imposing new telegraph build ing, appeared to be the only persons interested in the Graf's progress.
 May Meet Heavy Winds
 No definite weather reports were available but 1t was understood the Zeppelin probably would meet ad- verse winds and heavy weather be- fore reaching and crossing the Ural mountains, probably near Ogolovskii. near the confluence of the 60th meridian east and the 60th parallel north.
 From Wischni- -Wolotschok to the Urals, if the crossing was made at Bogolovskii. as Dr. Eckener planned at his departure, it was approximate ly 1000 miles, the course eastward and slightly north. There were no large cities along the route, although Rybinsk and Vyatka lay slightly to the south.
 The Ural crossing was not expect ed to present any considerable haZ- ard since the average height of the mountain area is only something more than 1,500 feet. Barring mis- haps it was expected the Graf Zep- pelin would be well in the noun tainous area by early afternoon.
 Section Least Dangerous
 At Wischni-W Wolotschok the Graf had flown over between fifth and sixth of it's 6,500-7,O00 mile journey the least dangerous to be crossed. More than three days of the expect ed five day journey will be spent in cruising above the vast Siberian Steppes, where a forced landing might have serious consequences.
 Speed of the Graf Zeppelin yes terday as 1t cruised northeastward from Friedrischafen varied with the weather conditions encountered. The average, up to reaching Soviet Rus sia remained in the neighborhood of 50 miles an hour.
 Little difficulty was experienced in maintaining communication with the ship and it's position was report ed frequently.
