AMMEL PREPARES
FOR ATLANTIC HOP
Hopes to Better Col. Lind
bergh's Solo Flight to
Paris.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press,
ROOSEVELT FIELD, N. Y, Septem-
Der l0.-Hoping to better Col. Charles
A. Lindbergh's time for solo flight to
Paris, Capt. Roy w. Ammel of Chicago
today was preparing his fast .monoplane
for a transatlantic flight.
He said he planned to take of within
two days or as soon as his motor and
instruments can be checked, provided
weather conditions were faborable. He
arrived from Chicago yesterday after a
hour and 80 minute nonstop flight.
His plane is q low wing Lockheed
Sirius monoplane powered with a AIS
horsepower Wasp motor. 1t is similar
to the plane in which Col. Lindbergh
and his wife set one-stop transcon-
tinental speed record last Easter Sunday.
Capt. Ammel said his plane has a
cruising speed of 140 miles an hour and
a maximum speed of 181 miles. Case
line tanks with a capacity OF BIT gallons
have been installed.
If he has SUFFICIENT gas when he
reaches Paris, he said he would circle
the French capital and fly on to Rome
or Berlin.
He expressed confidence in his ability
to make the flight to Paris in less than
80 hours. Col Lindbergh made his
flight In 1872 hours. The distance from
here to lie Bourget Field at Paris Is
measured at $3.50 miles
Capt. Ammel said he would not carry
radio equipment.
He has had more than 1000 hours
flying experience, much of 1t in Central
and South America.

won over Ransden Fpy approximately
$4,000.
Wet Candidates Win.
Outstanding in the primary results
were the victories of wet candidates
for Republican nominations for the
House in Washington and Michigan
Although the returns are not yet COM

dry Republican members of the House
from Washington have suffered defeat
at the hands Of candidates who lean

The new government Of the Argentine

President, Hipolito Irigoyen.
Rule by martial law was frightened.
Heavy guards were maintained over the
city; troops moved through the streets,
and fighting planes maneuvered over
head.
A censorship more rigid than has been
known heretofore was imposed. The
chief of the Argentine press section adj
vised all foreign correspondents that no
messages could be sent out of the coun-
try which had not been approved by
authorized censors. The prohibition
applied alike TO cable, telegraph and
telephone. The correspondents were
told that any one violating the order
would be expelled. No code messages
were accepted.
The government appeared greatly
concerned because quantities of arms
were taken from city arsenals during
the fighting Monday night.
Military Edicts Issued.
Two military edicts were issued pre-
scribing trial by court-martial for any
one found in possession Of arms after
6 pm. yesterday, for any one acting In

STRIKING PARENTS
POSTPONE SCHOOL
BeItsviIIe Fire Exit and Plumb
ing Facilities Are Pro-
tested.
BY a stan Correspondent of The Star.

BELTSVILLE, Md, September 10
A parents strike, laid to the lack of
adequate plumbing facilities and fire
exits in the Beltsville School, now being
enlarged, forced Prince Georges County
school officials to postpone the opening
of that school along with the others of
the county today.
A large group of parents assembled at
the school when the scheduled time for
opening arrived this morning and fatty
refused to permit their children to enter
the class rooms under the present phys
ical condition of the building After
considerable discussion, Perry Boswell,
president of the Board of Education,
and j. Albert Miller, assistant superin-
tendent of schools, ordered the opening
postponed until Monday.
School Being Enlarged.
The school is being enlarged from
3-room to a 4-room structure, and is
also being raised to provide bigger base
ment quarters. When the building oper-
atoms are completed entrance to the
school will be afforded by wide cement
steps. but at present a temporary ramp,
said to be only few feet wide, serves as
the main entrance.
The parents say that, in case OF f1re,
all of the 125 pupils in the school could
not reach safety down the temporary
ramp.
School officials had ordered temporary
plumbing connections installed, ana
when the County Board OF Education
met yesterday and studied reports from
the contractor, it could see no reason
for postponing the schools opening.
According to the parents. however,
the temporary plumbing connections
failed to provide either sewer or water
facilities.
Reluctant TO Allow Opening.
II sewer and water is provided, and
a full set of entrance steps is built, the
striking" parents will reluctantly per-
nit their children to return to the
building and suffer the inconvenience
of noise and confusion until the en-
largement operations are completed,
they said.
The parents say the work on the
school started only three weeks ago, and
complain that an insufficient force OF
men has been employed to have the
building in shape for the scheduled
opening of schools.
Although school officials promised the
plumbing conditions and entrance needs
would be made satisfactory by Monday,
the parents assumed Judge for-our-
selves" attitude, announcing they will
decide whether or not the building is
safe at a meeting of the local home and
school association Monday night
