CANADIAN PLANES TESTED.

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, December %
P)-As warm weather brought a haZy
ceiling over Fairbanks today the three
Fairchild cabin planes which will be
used by the Canadian airmen in the
search for Carl Ben Eielson and Earl
Borland, lost between Teller and North
Cape, Siberia, since November 8, arose
from the SnoW-coVered field and circled
in test flights over the city.
The three ships we're said to be ready
for the long hop to Teller via Nome,
which probably will start not later than
Monday. While the Canadians were
planning to be actively in the search
for Eielson and Borland not later than
Wednesday. silence enveloped the flyers
already on the search, except for a
Christmas message from Marion Sven
son, 17-year-old Seattle high school
girl, who is on the fur-trading vessel
Nanuk, frozen in the Ice of North
Cape.
The girls message, which was re-
layed through here to Seattle, said all
was well aboard the tightly held little
motor ship. She told very little, how
ever, OF the search being conducted by
Harold Gillian and Joe Crosson, who
recently few from Teller to the Nanuk
She said that her father, Olaf Sven
son, head of a Seattle fur-trading
company and Gillian had mace two
flights in search of EielSon or the
wreckage Of his plane, but did not men
ton whether Crosson had been in the
air. Gillian and SwenSon located three
deer camps on their flights and dog
teams were being sent to ask the herd
ers to use reindeer teams to scour the
country for the missing airmen.

LEXINGTON, Va, December %
DR.. Henry Louis Smith, 10, professor

after serving 40 years as college teacher
and university head. it was announced
today.
His resignation becomes effective at
the close of this year. It was rendered
in october. 1928, but was deferred at
the trustees request.
DR.. Smith plans to leave January

to serve education as lecturer and
writer.

During the interregnum until Sep

committee OF the faculty will govern

about his long career.

buried-typify the college which for 1871
years has delivered education for
scarcely half what it has cost to pro-
duce it. Business profit has been sacri-
feed to teach young men.
This note of plainness. this quality
of character struck a visitor yesterday
as he listened to DIR. Smith answer his
questions about half century of teach
ing, of romantic research in science,
which would close oficially in a few
hours.

CHICAGO, December 28.-Grover
Whalen, police commissioner of New
York City, said tonight that he and
William F. Russell, Chicago's police
commissioner, had determined on a
program of joint efforts to combat
racketeering.
The plan as outlined by Commits
sioner Whalen, will provide for estab-
lishment Of racketeering squads in
each city and a continual interchange
Of men and efforts. Commissioner
Whalen said the first step would be
taken next week, when several men
would be assigned to come to Chicago
with available New York evidence in
the NARROW and Yale gang Staying
cases.
Racketeering Vital Problem.
Bullets, shells. confiscated guns and
other material held in both cities are
to be compared for what information
they may hold.
"Racketeering is the most vital of
our police problems" Commissioner
Whalen said. Business men are losing
millions.
Most Of them won't fight their own
battles, but pay tribute to avoid
trouble. The system also leads the
gangsters to fight among themselves;
they are covetous of the spoils Of the
rackets and they kill their competi-
tors"
Favors Ban on Parking.
Whalen spent today in a visit to the
stock yards. whence he talked via radio.

Side boulevard system and a tour
through the Loop to study trafic.

cluSion. Your downtown traffic is
much faster than ours for that reason
Our situation is becoming steadily

constructive suggestions for the
maintenance of the purchasing pow
er of the consuming public, has ap-
parenuy met with whole hearted
approval, and peSsimism, even in

and have such excellent chances of
materailizing that it is difficult to
single out the one that might be re-
garded as the most important, but
to us the consolidation program, in
volving the railroads, offers from
market standpoint possibilities
that should be embraced in full
measure. There are many bargains
in the better grade of rails and from
an investors standpoint, they are
most attractive. While it is prob
able that the general recovery in
stock values may have been little
too rapid, such technical reactions
as may develop give promise of be-

The market, particularly in the bet

HAWKEYE WINS

Iowa Boy Shows Champion
Steer in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Dec. 4.-The highest
mark of distinction a livestock man
can gain, the grand championship
steer award of the international
livestock exposition, Tuesday was
pinned on the overalls of Elliott
Brown, 20, Rose Hill, Ia.
Elliott's pet steer, Lucky Strike,
black, marcelled cross bred Aber-

sion by Walter Biggar, Dalbeattie,
Scottish judge who is short on words
and long on livestock judging.
Waldo Mommsen, sun tanned,
Miles 1a.) farm boy, was the re-
serve champion winner with his do
cile and combed Mike, with which
he won the junior feeding contest
for baby beeves.
Biggar judged the two steers amid
a fanfare of ragtime music from
the band in the gallery, which so
fused Lucky Strike that he forSook
his usual docility and jumped and

Grain PRICES
OPEN STRONG
IN TRADE BOARD
World Wheat Situation Is
BuIIiSh; Traders Buy
Only on SetbaCkS.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Dec. 4-Wheat opened
strong on the Board of Trade today
as a result Of gains at Liverpool and
BuenoS Aires, although BuenoS
Aires had a slight reaction from the
top figures. Another heat wave in
South America brought reports Of
further deterioration in Argentine
grain fields. Corn and oats ad-
vanced fractionally with wheat.
At the opening wheat was un-
changed to l cent higher, corn was
unchanged to z cent higher and
oats was Is cent to y cent higher.
Provisions opened steady.
Although the world wheat situa-
ton is growing more bullish, most
traders are buying only on the set
backs. Prices had advanced so
rapidly that fears Of a reaction
make the bulls more cautious. Both
liverpool and Buenos Aires were
higher than expected this morning.
Liverpool was Is to 21s cents
higher about noon and Buenos
Aires opened Is cent higher.
There is more of a sentiment for
buying corn owing to the strength
of wheat and the delay in December
deliveries. Traders are adverse to
taking a long position in view of the
long expected heavy movement to
market, which still has not set in.
Trade in oats remains quiet with
cash interests taking December as
it is delivered and selling May.
Strength in wheat and corn enables
it to hold it's position.
