Poison. Mont, July LP-Cheap winters for the Flathead Indians are power for farmers and no more hard seen in the development of the Muscle Shoals of the Vest on the Flathead river near here.
 Nearly S1O.O0o.o00 will be spent on the project.
 The dam will bring some afflu- ence to 2.5oo Indians in the Flat head tribe. which owns the site and drove a bargain for it.
 Nearly $3.0O0.o0O will accrue to the tribe in the first 20 years after the dam is built. with additional amounts thereafter.
 Power for pumping will he avail able for farmers on the fertile Flat head irrigation project, which in Cludes 124,000 acres. The contract reserves 15,ooo horsepower for this purpose.
 The total capacity of the dam is expected to be 100, ,OOO horsepower. Much Of this energy will find a market in the copper mines Of Butte and the ore reduction plants and factories Of Butte, Anaconda, East Helena and Great Falls The Mil- waukee railroad, which operates hy electricity through the mountain country also will be q potential con- sumer Of power.
 The Flathead river is an outlet of Flathead lake, whose storage facili- ties insure a flow Of 6,0Oo second- feet at the proposed dam. The sit allows for a fall Of so feet. and the base of the dam will be 50 or 40 feet below the river bed.
 Four other power sites on the Flathead river below the location of the present project await develop ment when moro energy is needed. They will furnish another 100000 horsepower, with falls ranging from fl to 40 feet.

C0STES ID RETURN !. L|NDBERGH'S VISIT
French Ace Ready for Long,
 Deferred Atlantic Attempt
BY MINOTT SAUNDERS

Paris, July "I shall not rest until I return Lindbergh's visit, go- ing the way he came Only the weather is holding me up
 Dieudonne Costes. foremost of French aviators> and holder or several world flying records, has had this ambition for three years. With determination to realize 1t increasing, rather than diminish ing. he is building high hopes on his chances this sumner. He has kept his plans as secret as pos sible and made his tests quietly. and if he has his way he will take off without any flare or cheers Of encouragement.
 Costes wanted to start his Al lantic flight early in May. to ar rive as near as possible to the time of the year that Lindbergh flew from New York 10 Paris May 20 - but meteorological con- ditions were hopeless and at no time since have they greatly i'm proved Storms. rain and fog have maintained along the coasts Of France and England for weeks.
 But the weather will break in time and we shall have our chance" Cos5es is very confident. When that time comes We shall be ready"
 Costes' We" means the same trio that attempted to span the Atlantic by the southern route last year his Breguet biplane Question Mark" and his faithful companion and navigator. Maurice Bellonte.
 Costes holds the worlds endIr- ance record and the worlds record for distance in nonstop flight. He has never been accused Of tax ing unreasonable chances.
 To Take Northern Route
 On his forthcoming flight Costes plans 10 take the northern route, generally considered more hazard ous because Of weather and ad- verse winds, but it is shorter and conditions that he met last year Oil the southern route have con- Ninced him that there is littln choice from the weather point Of view. He plafs to follow the ship lane.
 While Costes and Bellonte will fly the same plane they tsed last year. they have replaced the 6O9- horsepower lIispano-S -Suiza motor for a 65O-horsepower of the same type. His tanks are capable O. carrying 5,20O litres of gasoline and 20 litres of oil, and he fig Ures this will give him a radius of action of $500 kilometres, or 2500 more than required under normal , flight 10 cover the distance from i Paris to New York. This, he thinks, is a reasonable safety fac tor and will enable him to over come the adverse trade winds. He is planning on reaching Curtiss Field some time between B and 45 hours of flight. and he will 1 have fuel to keep him in the air for more than 50 hours.

FISHERMEN FIND THREE

St. Thomas, Ont, July tF, - The fate Of three men who attempt cd 10 navigate Lake Erie in frail stift, was revealed yesterday when fishermen. hauling up nets, brought the bodies of two of them 10 the surface.
 The victims were Stanley A. Win ters. 30 years old, d salesman Of Cleveland, Ray Carroll, so, a sales man from Detroit and Oscar Layno, q, of Fairview, Kentucky.
 Two fishermen, Martin Miller and W, H. Lindenmann. found an over- turned boat They hauled it ashore. then pulled in the net with two bodies entangled in it's meshes. The third body was found floating near Ly. l. Relatives of the men said they had crossed from Cleveland to Port Stanley. Ont, on a lake steamer, taking with them a small dinghy fitted with two sails. They set out from Port Stanley for Terrace beach to miles away where they were to join other members Of their families for the holiday.

But when-if ever-the world Of science asks; Did you measure the distance yourself?" the doctor will not be able to boast that he did hence the construction Of S4o,00o iron tube one milo long near here and the second test.
 Although seemingly a tremendous problem in mathematics, Dr, Michel son asserts there Is little Of com ploxity 10 his experiments.
 Uses Mirrors
 A beam of light races up and down the milo-long vacuum tube. It flashes back and forth on revolv- ing mirrors set inside the tube. making in all five round trips-or 10 miles,
 Emerging from the tube it is caught again on the revolving mirror. The mile between his mirrors can he measured with an error of less than one-siXteonth Of an inch and can he checked with case.
 Prior to Dr Michelson's earlier research. light speed was measured by the calculated distance of some astral body-such as the sun. Now this procedure is reversed and the distance of stars. planets and such is measured by the light speed for mula, which increases accuracy greatly.
 My formula is correct within one part in 20O,ooo approximately The previous measure was accurate within about one part in 5,oQo,' eX- plaincd Sr. Nicholson.
 Three factors entetr into the ob- servations, the mirrors. the inter vals at which the tests are made and the observers. 1 do not plan to make any Of the tests myself, and probably will be directly con nected with the experiments only if my assistants get into trouble"

Santa Ana, Calf, July - For 30 years Dr. Albert A. Nicholson. internationally known scientist. ha5 studied the problem Of light and now, at the extensive Irving ranch near here he is concluding his most famous achieyement-the calcula- ton Of lights speed.
 In 192G, Dr. Nicholson performed the seemingly impossible feat of measuring this speed and arrived then at the figure accepted through out the world-299,79 kilometers a second, or, roughly, 156,2S4 miles a second.
 Since all solar distances are com- puted on the speed Of light, one in- toresting effect of the famous scicn- lists new researches may be to change the distances of the sun and the stars as We now know them. For example. the distance to the nearest star (Alpha Centauri) is four and one-half light years, or 0.0OO,00 100000 miles, and thus even the slightest correction in the speed of light might change this distance by many millions Of miles. It is even possible that a change Of 1,00O miles or so might be made in the distance to the sun. which is now calculated at 93,oo0,ooo miles.
 The present figure Of 299.796 kill nt nf q g iF1 l. son, is not more than 50 lilometcrs off, Why. then. you might ask, does the physicist return 10 his tests?
 First Test ''Too Easy"
 First, he wishes to check his previous results because he thinks they were too simply arrived at certainly a paradoXiCal situation, And second-this. too, reveals the passion for truth Of the scientific mind-Dr. Nicholson was not Cer- tain of the distance over which thtc light beam was measured in it's flight.
 Tn tests were conducted by fash ing light beams between two noun tain peaks near Los Angeles. Mount Wilson and Mount Baldy 92 miles apart.
 Before Dr. Nicholson arrived. the |. s. coast and gcodetic survey spent weeks in calculating an exact 22 miles, and Dr. Nicholson was satisfied with their statement that the measurements were correct.

GANGSTER BLOCKS
 HIS EXTRAD|TI0N
Alleged Slayer of Lingle Seeks
 Habeas Corpus Writ

Los Angeles, July P-Having temporarily blocked his removal to Illinois by 6 surprise move for writ of habeas corpus, Frank Foster, indicted in Chicago for the murder Of Jake Lingle, newspaper reporter, waited in jail here today as his at torneys fought for his release.
 Foster, q lieutenant Of the George Bugs Moran gang of Chicago, sued out the writ yesterday as the hour for his secret departure east drew near. The writ was made returnable today.
 District attorneys investigators said the move would result only in a brief delay and predicted Foster would be on his way to Chicago soon. Extradition papers have been signed by Governor c. c. Young.
 Chicago detectives made various interpretations of Fosters move. Fear on the prisoners part that he might be killed by gangsters was suspected.
 Foster was arrested a week ago with five others in roundup of Chi cago suspects alleged to have fled here following the Lingle staying. Foster insists he can prove he was not in Chicago when Lingle was shot to death. He is accused of once owning the gun used in the killing.
