airy Capt. Malcolm Camp
bells greatest ambition is to
drive an automobile 800 miles
an hour.
The 46-year-old British race driver
who Thursday hung up a new world
land speed record of 245 miles an hour
on the beach speedway here, expressed
such a desire tonight while making
final preparations for his return trip TO
England.
1T is my very great ambition to be
able to drive a car at that speed" he
declared as he opened and read nun
dreds of cablegrams and kilograms, re-
ceived from all parts of the world. con-
graduating him on his record-oreaKlng
achievement in his huge Bluebird
racing car.
II have said that I am not satisfied
with my present record of 245. That
is true, but 1 do not contemplate any
more record trials soon. There is
plenty more speed in my Bluebird, but
these trials are so beastly expensive.
Needs Millionaire to Aid.
Perhaps If / can f1nd some mllllon-
aire who will help finance such an
undertaking I shall shoot for the 800
mile mark within the next few years
There Is nothing I should like better
to do. I should say that at present 1t
Is my greatest ambition"
Campbell would make no definite
predictions as to when he thought an
automobile speed of 800 miles an hour
would be attained but intimated it
would be within the next three or four
years.
Campbell declared he would have no
fear in trying for a speed of 300 miles
an hour, provided he had car that
was absolutely stable and a course that
was perfect.
Il am what you call fatalist. I
believe that am not going to get mine
until I am supposed to. When that
time comes I shall be ready to meet
it. But why talk of that now. have
no fear. I absolutely get no sensation
or thrill while travelling at so fast
speed"
The British driver plans to attend
testimonial dinner in his honor here
Monday night and leave for the North
Tuesday morning. His two racing cars
are to be shipped either tomorrow or
Monday.
Campbell expects 20 stop over In
Washington for day for q conference

You have done some good work al

when transposed into terms of the
present deprecated silver price.
This situation is not entirely unsatis-
factory to the Chinese government, but
since it leads to a great decline in
customs revenues and is lowering the
living standards of the Chinese even
below previous level, the government
is disposed to view with favor any
move toward the rehabilitation of sill
yer, in the opinion of Senator Pitt
man.
More than one of the great New
York bankers has listed the rehabili-
tation of silver as among the four es-
sentials of economic recovery. 7. w.
Lamont was quoted at the conference
as saying in public interview that
one of our most serious mistakes was
the abandonment of the double stand
ard Of money
In his speech at the banquet, DR..
Thomson emphasized IF the plea for
the rehabilitation comes only from the
silver miner, then he has no greater
justification than has the producer of
wheat, rutabagas, olive oil or altar of
roses. But if the rehabilitation of silver
and its restoration as a money metal
in present gold standard countries will
be even partial remedy for our pres
ent economic ills, then of course the
matter becomes one of concern to
every man. woman and child in the
world
Over the Spokane meeting lowered
the old spirit of bimetallism, of the
silver and gold ratio. of the glowing
speeches Of William Jennings Bryan,
DR.. Thomson said However, he de-
clared that the present-day Northwest
mining men are considering the silver
question from the modern viewpoint.
