See Rum Runners Reprisal
on U. S. Revenue Collector;
Toledo Sheriff Pushes Hunt

TOLEDO, Ohio, June II
I'm 81 With the silent waters
of Lake Erie still secreting the
tate of the eight prominent
Toledo men who disappeared
from a speedboat early Saturday,
Sheriff Joseph Zimmerman today
expressed fear that the men have
been captured or slain by rum
runners or hi-jackerS.
e Acting on that theory, the
Z sheriff left this morning for
Bono, Lake Erie hangout point
Tor underworld denizens Of the
lake waterfront.
Postmaster General Walter
Brown, Of President Hoover'S
cabinet, has been asked to obtain
further cooperation on every
coastguard craft in this part Of
the great lakes in the search for
the missing men. Brown is a
personal friend and political asSO-
ciRte Of Charles H. NautS, col.
lector Of internal revenue at
Toledo, who is one of the missing
men.
:, The fact that Nauts is collector
of Internal Revenue lends weight
to- the Sheriff's theory that rum
runners may have acted against
him in repriSal for activities of
his department. On the other
hand. the sheriff points out,
every man aboard the speedboat
was very wealthy and kidnapping
or robbery by hi-jackers might
account for their disappearance.
AirplaneS were still being en-
plpyed in the search today.
The missing men are NautS;
his son, Herbert, an attorney:
Arthur e. Kruse. Franklin B.
Jones, Frank Miller, Henry j.
HRinbuch, John Meyer, and John
LMkzgach, pilot of the craft.

CHEWING GUM NOT CANDY, RUL|NGSAYS
Commission Passes on Freight
 Rate Plea Of Makers

Washington, July II P-Chewing gum today obtained officially the right to be classified as a commodity Of higher quality than candy.
 The decision, announced by the interstate commerce commission. will not be entirely 10 the satisfac- ton of chewing gum makers and dealers, however, since it justifies the express companies in charging higher rates for chewing gum ship ments than for candy. The express companies nay apply first class rates 10 chewing gum, but will con- tInue to classify candy as second class shipment taking lower rates.
 Chewing gum interests in attack ing the classification attempted 10 establish that chewing gum was d food.
 We do not think that the evil denCe definitely establishes that this is so," the commission observed. \ We cannot avoid the concll- sion that chewing gum is not form or traffic which is fairly entitled 70 preferential rates as food product"

AVIATION RULING
 CAUSES PROTEST
Manager Says 300 Foot Limit
 Altogether Unfair to Planes

Cleveland. July II P-A menace to aviation was seen today by Ma jor Louis G. Meister, Cleveland man ager of the Curtiss- Wright Flying Service. in the ruling of Federal Judge George P. Hahn at Toledo in setting 500 feet as the minimum height at which planes may fly over property adjacent to airports.
 Major Meister asserted that more than 4,5O0 feet of ground space are needed for pilots 10 bring their planes down from an altitude Of 500 feet and that very few airports in the country are large enough for this.
 Judge Hahn's ruling was in con- nection with the suit brought by Raymond and Frederick H. STet- land seeking to have the airport at Richmond Heights Village adjoin- ing their estate be declared a nui- sance. Judge Hahn refused to de- clare the airport a nuisance but stipulated that planes must not fly over the Swetland property at less than 500 feet altitude.
 Major Meister announced that the airport would be closed August 1 as a result Of the ruling and his com- pany's activities removed to another base.
