A|RPLANE USED
i. T0FIGHT FIRE

Gray-haired Americans who in
their youth 40 and so years ago
read stories Of the pioneering
days and the covered-wagon trek
across the Western plains will re-
member tales OF how the prairie
fires were fought by backflr1ng,
how the wagons were drawn in
line and little blazes were started
to clear space over which the
onrushing fire could not leap.
Sometimes this was successful,
and again it failed and lives were
lost. Just so settlements were
often saved from the flames by
back-firing against the fiery on
set driven by the wind.
. Now a new method has been
developed, a method that could
not have been used in the pio-
neering days for a very simple
reason, because there was no
means of raising wind" at Will.
It is reported from Riverside,
Calf, to the War Department
that when a prairie fire started
to sweep across March Field, a
large airport, some of the army
aviators ran their planes out TO
the edge of the fire and, turning
on their propellers, held the blaze
at a sufficient distance to enable
emergency squads to extingu1sh 1t.

LIQUOR IS BLAMED
FOR CHICAGO CRIME
Illegal Profits Basis of All
Gang Activity, Randolph
Declares.
~ tn. Associated Press.

~ the Associated PfeSs.
CHICAGO, May 2l.-Col Robert
Isham Randolph president Of the Chi
cago Association Of Commerce, believes
the liquor trafic largely responsible for
Chicago crime.
Addressing the National Safety Coun-
Gil last night, Col. Randolph, who heads
the Secret Six Committee" organized
to fight crime, said, Whatever may be
thought Of the volstead act, RESPONSE
bility for crime here can be traced to
Illicit liquor traffic.
Beer costs 50 a barrel to produce" he
said, land sells for $50. Alcohol costs
40 cents gallon to cook and they get
$12 for 1t. Enormous profits there. And
the paying of enormous graft to some
body goes with 1t. Illicit liquor couldn't
be distributed otherwise. We can't cope
with crime as long as this source Of
bootlegging profits exists"
Gangs perpetrating almost every kind
Of crime-bootlegging. hi-jacking, rack
eteering-are interlocked. IF the booze
industry gets overcrowded they turn to
something else" he said.
The speaker urged that crime news be
printed on the front pages of the news
papers, saying You can't clean room
by sweeping the dirt under the bed"

''The vultures of finance, Who

RothSchild cited several in
stances in which widows had been

He urged the companies and their
representatives to stress the slo-

This should be done, he said.
not only for selfish competitive
reasons but for the protection of

Replying to the introduction of
j. H. Snyder, president of the as

that it was the mutual hope of
the two organizations to not only
protect those insured against
financial fraud but also to work
for the improvement of the high
ethical standards that already
exist in the insurance business.
