ATLANTIC Filler
RESCUED FROM
FIRE IN PLANE
Farmer and Mechanics Pull
Unconscious Man Free
From WreCkage.
BY JOHN T. DTEANEY.
United Press Stan Correspondent

ST. JOHNS, Newfoundland, July
THE courage and agility of a
Newfoundland farmer and two me-
chanics were credited today with
saving Major G. s. Wynne- Eyton
from death in his burning plane as
he was leaving for Harbor Grace to
begin transatlantic flight to Lon
don.
While several hundred other spec
tators fed from the local airport
when they saw Major Wynne-
Eyton's Moth De Haviland plane
dive heavily to the ground after the
take-off, the three men ran to the
wreckage, and pulled the uncon-
SciouS English aviator from the
pilots seat less than a minute be-
fore the plane blew up and burned.
The major already was injured
when his rescuers reached him,
however, and today he lay in Grace
hospital, suffering from bad cut
on the upper lip, which required
eight stitches, a cut on the inside of
the lower lip and several broken
teeth and shock. His condition
was not considered serious by physi-
clans who examined him.
Major Wynne- Eyton was grief
stricken over the end of the pro-
posed fight before it even had
started. Despite messages from the
De Haviland Company, for whom
he was flying the plane, telling him
not to worry, he was disappointed
that his first accident in twelve
years of flying should have occurred
at this time, and hurt that the
plane was destroyed.
What an ending!" he said of
the transatlantic flight, when his
mechanic informed him of the de-
tails of the accident during his first
lucid moment. II wish they had
let me burn with the plane"
George Symonds, a 55-year-old
farmer; James Davis, 40, and Dan
Reardon, Is, mechanics, were the
men who saved him from that fate.

They reached the wrecked plane
almost Immediately after it struck
the ground, ar1 found the major,
unconscious, leaning forward in the
cockpit.
ReScuerS Work Fast
His head was bent toward the
left, against the instrument board.
and blood was streaming down his
face and clothes. Little tongues of
fire already we're leaping up around
his feet and over the top of the
engine.
The men worked quickly to I'M
tangle him from the cramped quar-
tiers. Drawing his shoulders through
the narrow opening on the left, the
rescuers found the majors feet were
entangled among the levers and con-
trolls, and although the opening was
scarcely large enough for one man,
Davis wriggled beside the uncon-
Scious form and released the leg.
The three then drew the major
from the plane, and had carried
him scarcely twenty feet when the
engine exploded and the entire ma
chine vas enveloped in flames.

U. S. ASKED TO
DELAY TARIFF
Immediate Enforcement Is
Unfair, Says Britain.

Bv United Press
LONDON, July z. - A plea by
Great Britain against sudden en-
forcement of the new United States
tariff, has been forwarded to Wash
ington, it was disclosed today.
Sir Ronald Lindsay, British am
bassador to the United States; was
instructed by his government to ask
the United States to allow British
ships, already en- route, to unload
their cargoes without interference.
The plea was on the ground that it
is manifestly unjust to enforce the
new tariff suddenly, without warn
ing to shipping.
The tariff became effective when
it was signed by President Hoover,
and there was a rush of ships in
transit to make American ports be-
fore the new rates were started.

Despite the fact that he has retired from public office and has a big job on his hands in prlVate capacity New York is finding plenty of work for ex-Gov.

 That he would make excellent Chairman fol Che Commission is undoubtedly true.

WOMEN'S CLUBS ASKED TO HELP IN
 "BUYING" STUDY.

The modern housewife must choose what she needs for her home from hundreds of different retail articles. Her mother and grandmother found only limited number of kinds and qualities Of articles offered for sale, and because they made many things themselves at home they knew quality. The homemaker of today has little to guide her in respect to quality and is greatly in need of authoritative buying information
 The Bureau of Home Economies of the United States Department of Agriculture and the Ameri- can Home Economies Association have been inter esed in the possibility that specifications might be provided on the most commonly used household articles offered for sale One necessary step in drawing up such specifications, or statements of facts concerning quality performance is to learn what information the homemaker lacks; what facts she wants especially in the of larger pur- chases.
 Discussion of points connected with the purchase of food clothing textiles and equipment, by wom- ems clubs, would help in the formulation Of spec- fications in several ways. First as each topic comes up every homemaker can list the commodities under that head which could be purchased more satis- factorily if they labeled with quality or per- formance information This will help indicate what articles should receive attention Then each woman give in detail the particular facts she wants to know about each article on her list.
 One woman wants to know how to choose a blanket Is all-wool better than part-wool? How should table linen be judged? What is meant by weighted silk. and how can one tell it? How does 1t wear? There are dozens of other commodities on which questions immediately suggest themselves Careful consideration of few articles will be more helpful than casual attention to a larger field.
 The Bureau of Home Economics and the Ameri- can Home Economies Association will welcome lists of commodities suggested by womens clubs along with statement of the points needed on each as an aid in buying. Forms for recording this infor- nation will be supplied request to the Wash ington headquarters of either of these organizations
 A series of definite programs for womens clubs on the subject of consumer purchasing has been outlined by Ruth OBrien, of the Bureau of Home Economics. It also may be obtained by writing to the bureau in Washington, D. C.

The Battle Begins in Illinois.
(New York World.)


 James Hamilton Lewis, a member of the Senate from 1913 to 1919, will be Mrs McCormicks oppo- nent in the Illinois election next November. MT. Lewis has lost time in choosing an issue for his campaign Immediately after his victory in the Democratic primary he announced that he repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment and carry the fight to Mrs. Mccormick until she was forced to declare her position.
 What MT. Lewis do with the Prohibition issue in the campaign it is much too early to begin guessing. He will face, in Mrs Mccormick, can didate who starts the campaign with three enor- nous advantages: she is Republican running for office in Republican State, she is good enough tactcian to have the support of Big Bill Thompson's machine in Chicago, and she is a woman, running for office to which no woman has been elected and therefore armed with special appeal to the women voters of her State Against such candidate MT. Lewis faces odds which may seem insuperable. But the very fact that the odds heavily against him makes his prompt choice of Prohibition his issue even more significant For it shows that the time has come when the candidate of minority party sees in Prohibition his best chance to carry populous industrial State if the majority party dares to dodge the question:
 This is vastly different from the days not long ago when candidates for public office were trying to damp down the question of Prohibition insteal of helping to make it burning issue. Times are plainly changing.

Games for Brains.
(New York Times.)


 After visit to America Bernard Fay said that our outstanding trait is passion for testing meas uring comparing through competition. If that is true it should have been an American instead of a Rumanian professor pleading for the organiza- tion of intellectual Olympic games In his re- cent lectures in Paris he suggested meets for the best brains of all countries with specialists in various lines chosen for the different events.
 Though detailed plan is not reported, it is not likely that the professor meant to have the noted mathematic.ans astronomers philosophers of the world shut up in examination rooms and subjected Ito tests all alike American university students have undergone that sort of comparison in intercollegiate intelligence meets, but men who have progressed high beyond organized studies into the fields of independent research have never submitted to such lschoolboy stuff
 The Olympic games result in championships that are source of qualification to the country of the winner. Intellectual rvalries cannot be settled so definitely Anyhow, of real intellect not interested in competitions of wits but in exchang ing ideas and information.
