U, S. HAS FAITH

Yep Breakdown Won't Halt

BIZ Seripps- HoUdrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, May 22.-The
failure Of the Graf Zeppelin to con-
TRUE its flight across the Atlantic
because of engine trouble will not
cause a revision in the navy de-
partment plans for two new diri-
gibles now being constructed by the
Goodyear Zeppelin Company at
Akron, O., Rear Admiral William a.
Hofett, chief Of the navy bureau
of aeronautics, announced today.
Eight motors similar to the five
NIaybach motors on the Graf Yep
pelin are specified for the new
American airshipS.
eve are not certain what caused
tie breakdown of the Graf zeppe-
Inns motors" Admiral Mofett said.
1--WE have received no definite re-
ports from Lieutenant Commander
Vincent A. Clark, who was our OBJ
server on the ship. We have no
plans now for revising our specif1-
cations and I don't think a change
will be necessary"
Admiral Moffett said the dirigible
Los Angeles is powered with May
bach motors, as is the Graf zeppe-
lin, and these motors have worked
very satisfactory on the Los An
geles."

PLANE BOMBS
new YORK IN
SHAM AIR WAR
Lone Raider Destroys Fort
in HarbOr, Slips Away
in Gale.

BB United Press
NEW YORK, May ga lone air
raider rode bnndly out Of the west
on gale last night to pound New
York's harbor defenses to gravel
and slip away unframed behind
protecting cloud banks.
It was only a game which the
army bomber that flew here from
Dayton, o., was playing, but the re-
suits of the tactical problem caused
military experts to revise their
opinions today.
When Lieutenant Odas Moon and
his four companions aboard the
bomber exploded three flares for
dead hits on Governors island, they
also exploded the theory that fog,
rain and clouds would be sufficient
protection for New York against
hostile airmen. The war game end
ed in a complete victory for the at
tackerS and after Fit. Jay had been
destroyed the army plane swept
triumphantly up Broadway, lights
blazing. and headed into tire dark
ness. presumably for Boiling field,
Washington.
The attack was considered all the
more remarkable because the bomb
err had failed to establish contact
with a refueling plane at Union
town. Pa, because Of the muggy
weather. Lieutenant Moons ship
would be so short Of fuel when it
arrived that no attack would be at
tempted, fliers here believed. Prep
arationS were made at Mitchell field
for the army plane to land. officers
were surprised when Moon not only
carried off the assault successfully,
but demonstrated that he could es-
cape as well.
The fight up Broadway was made
to demonstrate that the city was at
the mercy Of the bOrnbers after the
guns on Governor island had been
silenced.
Experts said the bombing was as
tonishingly accurate, for the plane
flew so high over Fl. Jay that it was
impossible for officers to see it, al
though they could hear the motors.
Flares, which brought even the
row boats in the harbOr into bright
relief. were used instead of bombs.

thankful for the wonderful results I

amounted to anything. 1 was grow

Health, Weight and Energy.

Every woman who Is weak, run
down or undernourished Will be in
terested in the experience of Mrs. S.
Kuharic. 924 S. 5Oth street. South
Bend Ind. How she won back her
health, appetite and weight, is told
in her letter as follows:
For months I was badly run
down; thoroughly tired out and
awfully weak all the time. I had no
appetite and what food I could eat,
didn't agree with me or Go me any
good. I lost weight until I was down
to only 81 pounds. Ny vitality was
so low that I had no pep at all. My
husband and friends began to be
alarmed about me. They had me
try several medicines, but I felt no
better. Then a relative suggested
Viuna. and after just a few doses.
I began to feel a difference. Before
the first bottle was gone. I had a
good appetite for the first time in
months. Soon I had gained seven
pounds. Now, my system is regu-
lar, I feel fine and can eat any
thing. Viuna helped me so Won
derfully that I gave it to my daugh-
ter. She had kidney and bladder
trouble Tor some time. In only two
days I noticed she was much better
and now she Is entirely relieved of
her ailments. She is gaining every
day and looks fine We both owe
all our good health to Viuna."
There must be something differ
ent, something truly wonderful
about medicine which has
promptly ended so many severe
cases o. back-ache. stomach trOu-
BILE. kidnev pains and rheumatism.
Try one bottle of Viuna under posi-
tive guaranty. 81 at druggists or
