J ROOSEVELT FIELD, N. Y,
Sept. Is QN.S.) Two planes in
which their pilots hope to make
new record flights across the At

tests, but it was not figured they
would start on their ocean span

the week.
r. W.. Ammel, of Chicago, who
is planning to fly to Paris and
possibly on to Berlin, tested his
plane at pace of from 140 to
$50 miles an hour. He said
weather conditions would make
a start today impossible.
Roger @, Williams, Ted Lund-

liam Marcelis were ready to hop
off in their huge plane on a
flight around the world. VIII.

NEW YORK, Sept. IS G.N.S0.
An official effort to solve the
strange disappearance of Supreme
Court Justice Joseph F. Crater
will start today when District
Attorney Grain will present to
the county grand jury testimony
Of friends of the missing jurist.
The investigation, in which
testimony will be. taken behind
closed doors, resulted, from an
order declaring the John Doe
proceedings first proposed by
Grain were illegal. After Chief
Magistrate Corrigan made this
ruling, Grain decided on his own
investigation.
More than dozen witnesses
have been summoned. Grain de-
clined to make public their
names.
Meanwhile police continued
their efforts to run down new
clues in the mystery, although
scores of tips passed to the
authorities since the justice was
last. seen August 6 have proved
false leads. Police said they
were without any definite clues.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-World-
ly-wise old Broadway, at one time
or another in the past, has seen
nearly everything in the way of
matters theatrical, but this fall it
is to have its first view of the
drama as 1t is practiced IN India.
A troupe of Hindu actors and
dancing girls, headed by Prof.
Sisir Kumar Bhaduri, who is
locally regarded as the leading
light of the modern Hindu drama,
embarked for New York Thurs
day afternoon from Bombay.
Coming by way of the Suez

rive on october 16. and shortly
after that they will invest one
of the theaters on Broadway to
give a season of their native
plays.
Plays in India are given with
ballet and musical accompar1i-
ment, and for this purpose Prof.
Bhaduri is bringing with him a
chorus of nautch girls, the native
formal dancers. celebrated in
song and story. It Is said that
these will be the first genuine
nautch girls to appear in this
country.
Plans for the appearance arc
not yet completed, but 1t is prac-
tically certain that the perform
ances will begin during the first

Ford Arouses Curiosity Again

Henry Ford is spouting some sense but likewise much
seemingly idle idealism again when he lays down the
principles of industrial recovery, and his ideas are not
going to enter into practical operation with the celebrity
Of fiat as he would s%weepirgly have them.
Gould he transrnute but one of his several ideas into
practice, the problem of farm relief, for instance, would
be settled presto. Setting out his belief in quantity pro-
duction from the soil in the face Of a surplus Of staple
agricultural products already stagnating, he argues that
this sort Of policy would adjust economic conditions now
unsettled. It would entail neither waste nor surplus. he
holds, on the contention that everything produced from
the soil is capable OF use for some purpose. Industry,
he says, has need OF everything that the soil grows that
is not converted into foodstuffs.
Henry will confer a great boon on the nation if he can
indicate, for instance, a use for the surplus wheat pro-
duccd. True, it might be used to feed the starving
Chinese, but that may not be what his contention i'm
plies. He hints at something entirely a secret unto him
self as though the national farm relief plan had over
looked the actual key to the solution of the vast agri-
cultural problem. Is 1t possible that we have been run
ming around In circles in respect to the farm crisis and
overlooking something perfectly obvious that would save
us all this lost motion and bother?
MI. Ford has excited our curiosity and expectations. He
might demonstrate a bit what he contends and predicts
and so blandly holds to be perfectly obvious.

amounted to nearly 1~5o,000,o00 tons, valued at nearly
$780, 000, 900. The rates are from one-seventh to one
tenth Of those per-ton mile for similar transportation
by rail. It is estimated that United States vessels would
average an annual economic saving of $4,000, 900 because

A Mechanical Band

The United States army Is experimenting with a me-
chanical music box mounted on a three quarter ton truck
to see II possibly it cannot replace the traditional army
band and army bugler; and II the army is wise it will
presently report that the whole scheme is Impractical
and visionary.
Imagine q stirring military review led, not by a quick
stepping, inspiring band but q magnavox on a truck!
Imagine the ~plaintive, haunting notes of TAPS sound
Ing over an e-ncampment-not from a bugle at the lips of
an immobile trumpeter, but from a tin horn connected
with a set Of electrical gadgets and gimmicks! How long
would the glamour Of military life survive?
The whole suggestion, really, sounds as if 1t had been
cooked up by a group Of pacifists. The band and the
bugler are two Of the best props the army ever had. If
it substitutes for them a contraption that emits music
through q leud-speaker the army will rob itself of about
90 per cent Of its appeal.

Editorial Comment
No Patent Traffic Remedy
est. Paul Dispatch)

WV SS0A NAOHWVSA
1ndlscriminate use Of traffic control lights is con-
demned in the findings of the committee for the Relief
OF Traffic Congestion Of the National Conference on
Street and Highway Safety. The committee finds that
the control lights have been increasing as well as reliev-
ing congestion.
In st. Paul the signals on Sixth street offer a case in
point. The intervals at which the red and green lights
alternate are not adjusted to the varying flow of traffic
at different hours of the day. Traffic is piled up at
Intersections. while motorists wait ~needlessly for the
signal. The traffic capacity Of the intersection is thus
leSsened.
The committee finds that the maximum traffic of
streets has been reached in but a few areas. BY effec-
tive planning streets can be made to accommodate more
TRAGIC than they are now handling. This planning in
cludes making signal light control more flexible so that
1t can be adjusted to the conditions that prevail in va
rious hours Of the day.
The survey Of the traffic situation has offered no
handy aids that can be put into effect wherever there
is congestion. The only device that is offered for gen.
eral application Is a competent committee in each city to
study that city's peculiar problems, such as fitting a con-
troll signal to the conditions of certain intersections
There Is no patent remedy for traffic congestion. There
must be diagnosis for individual cases.

FALL OF ~CONSTANTINOPLE

FALL OF CONSTANTINOPLE
On May %, 1853, Constantinople,
after a memorable siege, was cap
tured by the Turks.
The fall of the city, which was
then the capital of Greek civilization
and the stronghold of Christianity
in the east, marks an epoch in Euro
pean history. Not only was 1t a mill
tary victory, but a triumph Of MO-
hammendanism over Christianity.
It had a far-reaching effect on
history, for, by driving the scholars
into Italy from the east. it helped the
great revival Of learning. In Flor
ence, Lorenzo the Magnificent gath
cred around him these scholars and
revived the writings which had been
shut up so long in the east. This re-
vival of letters was called the Renais-
sance.
During the years that followed the
taking Of Constantinople, the Mo-
hammendans sought to subdue Chris
tan nations, but after their defeat at
the hands Of the Poles, desisted.
