ldzikowski and Kubala Hop Of First, Closely Followed By Coste and Bellonte- French men Radio Progress No Word from Poles.
Both Hope to Land At
 Roosevelt Field Tomor- row-Expected to Fol- low Azores Route-Per- feet Flying Weather Re- ported All Across Ocean.

Le Bourget, France, July 15 R- Two rival airplanes, one bearing the colors of Poland and the other those of France, today were speeding swiftly, so far as known, westward over the Atlantic in the first great transatlantic air race from Paris 10 New York
 Perfect weather conditions gave every hope that the Polish and French rivals of the air were well on their way, the Poles on a north erly route, and the Frenchmen on more southerly one.
 Major Ludwig Idzikowski and his companion, Major Casimir Kubala, took off first in their plane. the Marshal Pilsudski, at 4:47 o'clock this morning G0:47 p. m Friday, Eastern Standard time) while Cap tain Dieudonne Coste. famous French flier, and Jacques Bellonte. followed just 45 minutes later at 5:32 a. m.
 
 By 1 o'clock today both planes should have been out over the At lantic. The French f1iers were re- ported four times. In their passage across France from Paris over the Bay of Biscay and finally at Santan- der, Spain, in the region of which two other transatlantic flights, the Yellow Bird, and the Pathfinder ended so recently.
 The men were sighted over the Spanish coastal city at 9:30 a. m., i local time (3:3G a. m., eastern stan- dard time), having covered nearly 40 miles in slightly less than four hours, indicating a good average speed of more than 115 miles an hour.
 The progress of the Polish plane wal not so clear. No word had been received as to it's whereabouts this afternoon, Lut as it was last seen going strongly, having made the | hazardous takeoff with it's enormous load of gasoline, the presumption was it too was safely on it's way. Then too the Polish flight had not received as much notice as the Coste attempt and the Marshal Pilsudski might have passed with little at- tention.
 Seen Over Tours
 The French f1iers were sighted ;hree times. once over Tours, the second by fisherman off the French coast due west of Bordeaux and the third time over Santander. While flying between Tours and 1 Bordeaux. Coste dropped a note say ing everything was gong fine and he | intended 10 follow the steamship lane.
 Both planes should reach New York tomorrow afternoon if al! goes well. the French little in ad- vance. for their machine is faster than that of the Poles.

Government Order Called Severe Blow to Brew
 ing Industry

Milwaukee. July 13 Pl-James M Doran, |. S prohibition commission CT, has ordered Milwaukee brewers to discontinue at once the manufac- ture of "12 per cent" malt tonics. Brewers spoke of the order today as the most severe blow to the in- dustry since passage of the 18th amendment.
 The order. delivered through F. C.. Yellowly, prohibition enforcement chief at Chicago, stated that cffec- tive immediately malt tonics must contain minimum of IS per cent solids derived from malt and not more than two per cent alcohol by volume.
 The IS per cent product, the or | der decreed, must be bottled and | distributed under the same restric- l tions as now govern the "12 per | cent" All such tonic made on or before July Il may be marketed | but manufacture must cease at once. Brewers said this meant the loss of | thousands of dollars through de- struction of tonic now in process of manufa cture and the virtual junking of machinery used in it's manufac- | ture.
 It was pointed out by some brew CTS that a nationwide advertising campaign has just ended and that the breWeries were just beginning to profit from it.
 S2,00O,000 Loss Expected
 Should the order force the aban- donment of manufacture of the malt tonic. it was estimated Milwaukee would lose an industry earning more than s2,Oo0,0oO annually.

STUDENTS FROM FAR AWAY
 OFTEN BECOME HOMESICK
Candidates From New Britain, PlainyilIe, Berlin and Bristol to Be Chosen Ahead of Others-Authori- ties Decide to Insist on Rule Re- quiring Aspirants to Have Two Years At High School.

Years At High School.
 A new policy on the part of of- hcials of the New Britain training school for nurses, conducted in con- junction with the New Britain Gen. eral hospital, was announced today by Miss Maude E. Traver, directress of nurses, in the statement that henceforth the institution prefers New Britain girls for students. Thls does not mean, according to Miss Traver, that girls living outside this city are barred. It means anyone from this vicinity.
 Girls from distant points will be considered as in the past but where girls who can qualify are available from New Britain. Berlin, Plainville or Bristol. they will be given prefer ance.
 The reason for this, according 10 Miss Traver, is the fact that girls who are closer to their own families always are happier. When they have afternoons off they have some- where to go. They are not trans planted bodily into new environ- ments as are girls who come from Massachusetts or even farther away.
 Long For Home and Resign
 In the past the school has lost one or two students who seemed to show facilities for becoming good nurses because of homesickness. These girl came from such distant points that they were forced by cir cumstances to develop an entirely new set of contacts here. They were among strangers and the hospital discipline IS such that they de- veloped new friends slowly Home- sickness proved too strong and they succumbed to the extent that sev- eral gave up their training courses entirely and returned to their homes. In each case letters from , Miss Traver were sent to the mothers expressing the regret of the
