MONTEv1DEO, Uruguay. July "a
Arrests of army officers and civilians
in four provinces and two territories
of Northern Argentina indicate that
Mondays abortive counter-revolution at
Corrientes was part of a widespread
plot between. followers of former Presi-
dent Hipolito Irigoyen and certain
army officers to overthrow the pro-
visional government.
Provisional President Gen. Jose Fran
cisco Uriburu has closed the National
Committee headquarters of the Radical
party in BuenoS Aires, OF which former
President Marcelo T. Alvear Is presi-
dent, and arrested radical leaders in
the Provinces Of Corrientes, Catamatca,
Tucumsn and Santa Fe and the Terri
tories of Chaco and Misiones. These
leaders occupy positions corresponding
to State and county committeeman in
the United States.

Gov. Gomez Cello of that province and
several former Congressman are among
persons arrested in other places. Eight
hundred civilians were arrested in the
association with organizers Of the revolt.

of the capital and the town OF EN-
pedrado and Bella Vista for two days
and also were in possession of
Resistencia, capital Of Chaco territory,
and of at least one other important

Help Increase Confidence
in FatherIand.

FRIEDRICHSHAFEN. Germany, July
24-In glorious weather and before a
field damned with well-wishers. the
dirigible Graf Zeppelin took off for
Berlin today on the first leg OF her
cruise to the Arctic.
The take-off was made at 9:5l am.
1851 am, E. S. t. just 16 minutes
after the huge ship was taken out OF
her hangar.
In a brief broadcast from the dirigible,
Dr. Hugo Eckener. the commander,
said he regretted he was starting out
at time when Germany was in such
dire distress. but he felt the flight
would serve to increase confidence in
the Fatherland. ~
so long as there is breath left in a
German, science will never be neglected, -
he said.
Flight Purely Scientific.
He emphasized that the flight was
of purely scientific nature and pointed
out that IS per cent of the expenses
and a newspaper organization, and IS
per cent by stamp collectors.
The Graf Is taking along an enor-
nous amount of mail which will DC
exchanged in the Arctic with the
Russian ice-breaker Malygin-and the
Cancelled stamps will be primed items.
Aboard the dirigible were As men, II
of whom are Arctic experts or scientists.
There are 80 members of the crew,
three newspaper men and a special Rus
sian wireless ope: ator named Krahnkel.
DR.. Eckener's captains who will assist
in running the craft are Ernst Leh-
mann, Hans Fqemming, Hans Won
Schiller, Anton Witteman and Max
PruSS.
Grew Cut to 80.
The Graf ordinarily carries a crew
of Al, but this time. in view of equip
ment requirements, only 80 could be
put aboard.
After an excursion over Lake Con-
stance, the Graf passed over Friedrich
shafen at 1890 am. and pointed her
nose toward Berlin, where DR.. Eckener
expected to arrive between 4 and 5
pm. Go and IL am, E. S. To.

HOLBROOK, Ariz., July 24.-Moi;A-
tain men and Indian department spe-
cial officers searched pine-clad peaks
and mountain caves today for Henri
eta SCHNEIDER, Columbia University
student who, sent into the Apache
country by her alma mater to study
the Red mans mode of life, dropped
from sight Saturday.
For month Miss SCHNEIDER had
lived alone in shack at East Fork,
four miles from the Apache reserva-
ton at White River: White friends
said they saw her last Saturday morn
ing, and she intended to go to Fort
Apache to dance that night with
Claude Gilbert, a 25-year-old Apache
buck. They said he had served as one
OF the subjects Of her Indian life ex-
perimentations.
Gilbert. arrested yesterday at White
River denied knowledge of Miss
SCHNEIDER. He asserted she did not 90

posse from the Fort Apache Indian
School, whose students chiefly are
Navajos, and party from the White

May Meet Police Trouble.
While there has been no indication
from any of the other flat-rate COM
panies that they would join in the rate
cutting melee. some of the taxi operators
are confident they will be forced to come
down at least to 20 cents The leaders
in the rate cutting also are understood
to be ready to get down to bed rock on
rates by offering free ride on condition
that the rider tip the driver.
If such tactics are adopted. however,
it Is likely that the Traffic Bureau will
step in and make trouble for the op-
ertaorS, because the police argue that
the tags issued the hackers under the
law can go only to vehicles for hire.
And II the drivers give away rides, the
police contend, they no longer can b.
considered in the category of public
vehicles. The Traffic Bureau. it was
said, is not concerned with the rates
and the taxi operators can drop as low
as l cent a ride, but they must make
a charge to escape the tag regulations
Meter Rate May Be Cut.
The metered cabs-the Black and
White, Yellow and the Nickle-have not
yet Joined in the price slashing war
but it is unlikely that they will remain
out of it much longer
How the war will end and when. none
of the taxi operators are inclined to
predict, but before it's over some OF
the cab operators who own and drive
their own vehicles are expected to be
forced out of business. Many of these
men, it. was said, bought cabs and
went into the hacking business after
losing their former jobs, and it is
virtually impossible for them to earn
a livelihood on the low rates and paw
the installments on the vehicles when
they come due.
Unlike price wars in other cities
Washington has thus far been free OF
clashes between the competing drivers
although police report that some of the
taxis are violating the speed laws in
an effort to do more business on the
starvation rates

At the ethereal command the Stod-

Every officer and man OF the Stod-
dert was transferred to the Perry prior
to the test.
With a radio robot at her wheel the
Stoddert moved out to open sea at

of the Stoddert was stepped up to Is
then 20 knots. She blew her whistle
and blinked her great searchlights al

at 26 knots, or about 80 miles an hour
