LONDON, July 23.-Capt. Charles Kingsford-Smith has ambitions. Not satisfied with the fame gain ed in his 7,800-mile trans Pacific flight from Oakland, Cal, to Syd- ney, Australia, year ago and more recently in his 12,000-mile journey from Australia to England, the Australian airman is making pre- parations for a projected trans-At- lantic flight from England to the United States.
 He did not wait to complete his Australia England venture to an- nounce his proposed westwar trans Atlantic flight, but told news : papermen in Rome, where he stop ped en route from Sydney to Lon don, that he had decided upon the England to America journey.
 Immediately following his ar rival in London, mechanics were called to overhaul the motors of the historic Southern Cross, while Captain Kingsford-S Smith and Capt. Charles T. P. Ulm, his navigator began their search for the most

feasible route for their newest ad venture.
 Two routes are under considera- ton. The most likely-the south ern route-calls for a takcoff from the mainland from Dakar, Senc- gal, after a flight from England with stop in Spain. This would call for an ocean hop to South America and the northward jour ney to the United States by easy stages.
 While the three motorcd South ern Cross is being overhauled me chanics will determine whether the monoplane's weight may be les sened to enable it to take off with sufficient fuel for at least 45 hours flying. If this can be accom- plished the Australian flyer may decide upon nonstop flight from Croydon to New York.
 Captain Kingsford Smith and Captain Ulm first demonstrated their capabilities as long distance fliers in 1928 when they blazed the first air trail across the Pacific in the Southern Cross.

Suggests Reform for
 Thick Turhish 4nkles

STAMBOUL, Turkey, July 23.- Among the reforms which remain for the Turkish government to un- i1ertake, the semi official press of Stamboul cites the ankles of Turk ish women.
 In serious editorial writer for one of the leading dailies points out that the Turkish woman, so satis- factorily new" in other respects, retains the unwieldy ankles of the old type of Turkish belle when beauty was measured in pounds instead of by lack of inches.
 He urged government taboo on high heels and that the rough cob ble-stones which form Stamboul sidewalks be smoothed, considering that these factors instead of racial traits were responsible for the un- aesthetic ankle displayed by ninety per cent of the short-skirted women

 They are bracketed with Lord Dawson of Penn, the personal phy- sician of the king of England, to receive degrees of doctors of laws. AS far as is known, it is the first time in English history that two brothers will have received honor ary degrees at the same time.
 The degrees will be conferred upon Dr. Charles H. Mayo and Dr. William J. Mayo when they visit Manchester in connection with the conference of the British Medical association. Their regulations ex- tend throughout Europe.
 A special occasion is being made of the conferring of the degrees, which they will receive from the hands of the earl of Crawford and Balcarres, chancellor of the univer- sity. The three will be the only honorary degrees bestowed at that time.
 Manchester university was found- ed in 1851 by John Owens, a Man chester merchant. It was origi- nally known as Owens college. The charter of Victoria university was granted in 1880, and by a subse- quent charter became an independ- ent university under the title of the Victoria University of Man chester.
 It is customary to nunOr in this way distinguished foreigners CT prominent persons who visit Man chester. The degree given is usual ly doctor of laws. Occasionally science degrees are given to scien- lists, as in the case of the late Dr. Adolph Brodsky, and degrees of music to musicians, but an honor ary degree in medicine never has been given.
 Other distinguished foreigners who have been honored include Richard Willstatter, the German scientist, who received the degree of doctor of science, and Prof. J. G. Adami, who received the doctor of laws degree.
