RIPPED
FROM MOORINC,
TOTAL WRECK
MayfIoWer Is Destroyed by
Flames; Pilot Badly
Burned.

By United Press
KANSAS CITY, July 13.-The
Goodyear blimp. ''Mayfiower," was
a total wreck today after being
torn from its moorings and blown
across high tension wires at
municipal airport.
It's pilot, G. E. Brannigan Of
Akron, O., is in hospital, criti-
cally burned.
The explosion which wrecked the
100000 airship occurred after the
hlimp had been forced to land
Sunday night because Of a sud-
den wind storm. A gust of wind
tore it loose from its mornings and
carried it across the wires.
r. H. Hobensack, Brannigan's CO.
pilot, first noticed the hiimp was
loose. He leaped to the ground
and yelled for help. 1t crashed
against a hangar and Claude Hen
dershod, mechanic, was hurled
overheard. Three of his ribs we're
broken.
The ship then struck the high
tension wires, bursting into flames.
Ray Horton, another mechanic,
jumped through the flames and
landed unhurt. Brannigan was
trapped in the cabin and fell with
the ship. Hobensack dragged him
from the wreckage, saving him from
probable death.
The "Mayaower" was on its way
back to Akron, after an exhibition
flight through the middle west. 1t
was to have gone on to Akron today.
The Mayflower was in Indianap-
oils overnight ten days ago, en-
route from Akron, o., to Belleville,
Ill. The blimp was moored at Hoo
sier airport and several fights we're
made over the city.

Boy INDUCES in Orgy of
Ice Cream, Pastry; Won't
Be Whipped.
BIZ United Press

By Unttcd PreSS
CHICAGO, July 13.-Mrs. Rose
Amato is disguised with her 13-
year-old son, Johnny, who took her
life savings of $4,000 and spent
$2,908 of it in four hours On ice
cream, pastry, bicycles, roller skates
and coaster wagons, but "his heart
is in the right place" and he won't
get a whipping when he comes
home.
Johnny was detained at the Max
well street police station where he
was taken after his orgy of shop
ping. Police were attempting to
salvage part of the money from
playmates to whom Johnny with a
lavish hand passed out $40 $40 and
$50 bills.
"All my life I've worked hard and
saved $3,000," Mrs. Amato said to-
day. Every week, I put a couple OF
dollars in roll of bills 1 kept
it hidden on a top shelf behind the
canned tomatoes. Last Friday, the
money was there-the next day II
was gone.
Then two of Johnny's friends
walked into Mrs. Amato's store
bought candy and paid for it with
a $40 bill. AS they walked out
Johnny came in bearing a package
and shouting:
Look, Mama, I bought you some
roller skates for a present"
In his pockets was $92, all that
was left of the $4,000. However, he
had opened an account at neigh
borhood candy store and placed $3.50
ION deposit" and Mrs. Anato hoped
to get some of that back.
mo, I'm not going to whip John
ny when the police let him CO.
Mrs. Amato said today. I'm dis
guSted, but anyway he bought me
some roller skates. didn't he? That
shows his hearts in the right Mace. y

PATRONAGE, patronage, what
L multitudinous evils and troubles
are contained III that word.
F'rinstance. When the Democrats
won the county election here last
fall the party leaders were stormed
by approximately 12,o00 applicants
for jobs, all fighting to get to the
/ trough.
Down in Vanderburg county the
Democrats turned a clever trick by
getting majority of county COM
misioners six months before one OF
The Republicans was due to go off.
Because of this change, eighty addi-
tional jobs have been made available
TO the organization.
Here's the yarn: The newly elect
ed Democratic county assessor, An
drew Garrison, died a month ago,
and it was up to the county COM
missioners to fill the vacancy.
Democrats, seeing that by CARR
sons death they could gain control
Of the commission six months ahead
of time, engineered the deal where
by the short term Republican COM
missioner John Stark would be ap-
pointed to the vacancy.
Fearing that the Republicans
might hear of the swap before it
was conSummated, Stark was kid
naped (willingly) by Bailiff Frank
KanoWsky from Saturday until the
commissioners met the following
Monday morning.
This permitted one of the newly
elected Democratic commissioners
to take Office Immediately giving
that party two votes to the Repub-
leans one on the board.
Firing of G.. o. P. henchmen be-
gan at once and it is reported
Highway Superintendent Matt Fos-
ter, seeing the writing on the wall,
has acceded to demands of the
Democrats that he replace his
workers with those Of their party.
Now there are 1900 applicants
for the eighty jobs. Patronage,
patronage.
Losing jobs on all sides the Van
derburg Republican organization
had to get into a Squabble concern
ing which local architect should be
appointed to draw the plans for
the addition to the veterans hospital
there.
Appointment of local architect
meant an Evansville contractor vino
in turn would employ laborers liv-
ing in that city.
Every G.. o. P. architect began
pulling wires when announcement
of an addition was made, while war
veterans in need of medical atten-
ton were being turned away because
no room was available at the hos
pital.
While politicians there were in a
deadlock over the architect, the
treasury department, irked with the
delay, announced that government
architects could do the work as well.
Now the Evansville contractors
lose the work, laborers don't get the
jobs and further delay is necessi-
tated.
That's politics.

CO-OPERAT|vES
SAVING SMALL
RETAIL STORES
Band to Meet Competition
of Chains, Federal
Board Reports.

BIZ scripps-HoDord Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON. July l3.-The
corner grocer and the neighborhood
butcher are combining to meet
chain store competition.
In a report to the senate today
the federal trade commission dis
closed that 53,400 retail dealers
throughout the country have band
ed themselves into 1916 cooperative
grocery systems which did a total
business during 1929 estimated at
5000 900, 900 TO $500, 100000.
The report is the first Of a series
to be submitted under resolution
passed three years ago. The in
vestigation was sponsored by Sena-
tor Smith w. Brookhart Of Iowa,
who plans TO introduce further leg
islation 70 regulate chain stores.
Seek Advantages
The commission found there are
between $1,000 and $1,000 centrally
owned chain grocery stores.
In letter to the senate the COM
mission explained that it forwarded
its report on the co-operatives in
advance of the report on centrally
owned chains because Of "the en-
phasis which has frequently been
placed upon the idea that the CO.
operative chain may be the saliva
ton of the independent retailer"
The cooperative chain is defined
as an association of independent
retailers acting comparatively either
by themselves or with wholesaler
to obtain advantages in buying, ad-
vertising and other merchandising
activities
Extend Manager Service
A large majority of the report
ing cooperative chains require or
recommend uniform store signs or
uniform store fronts. More than
IS per cent Of the grocery co-opera-
tives extend managerial services to
their retail members.
Less than 43 per cent of the CO.
operative chains use supervisors. In
the case of each one of these cen
Trailing features the wholesaler
retailer organizations report great
er activity than do the retailer
groups.
The cooperative movement
among independent retail grOcerS
had its first definite beginning in
1887. The early cooperative efforts
of the retailers consisted merely in
buying as a group, or buying and
warehousing, In order that they
might purchase merchandise di-
rectly from the source and save for
themselves at least some part Of
the charges formerly paid to the
wholesaler for his services.

WITHDRAW CUTTERS IN
ICEBERG FAMINE
u. S. Guard Taken From Atlantic
Patrol in Light" Year.

By Science SerUice
WASHINGTON, July 13.-Due to
the continued absence of icebergs in
the North Atlantic, the United
States coast guard cutters Mojave
and Pontchartrain have been with
drawn from the international ice
patrol work for the season.
The General Greene, which has
been scouting off Newfoundland, to
the north of the steamer lanes, will
proceed up the coast of Labrador as
far as Resolution Island, to the
Northward of the entrance to Hud-
son Strait, making a scientific study
of oceanographic conditions as they
affect drifting ice.
The present year has set an all
time low record for icebergs. 1t is
a record which it will be impossible
to break, because to date not a
single iceberg has been seen on the
steamer lanes nor anywhere near
them. In ordinary years there are
dozens of bergs, and in bad years
hundreds of them.

Harry N. Riley and his wife, Elsie, also were fined $2bO each by Justice Ieets in the District of Col umbia supreme court.
 Mrs Riley probably will be con fined in the women's reformatory at Alderson. W. Va. while her husband will probably be commit ted to the nearby federal jail at Iorton. Va. The step-mother was calm and white-faced as the sent encc was pronounced. Five minutes later, however. her boise had de- serted her and she was sobbing bitterly in her cell at the district jail. Justice Leets. in pronouncing sentence, said he considered the fact that the husband usually IS more to blame in crimes committed jointly by a man and woman.

FIVE DEAD IN CRASH AT VATICAN
Waterbury Banks Safe;
 Don't Lose Your Heads

The present is no time for anyone to become anxious about deposits they may have in any bank. Now is the time to keep your head. The banks in Waterbury have . remarkable record for stability and honor.
 With the exception of one private bank, there has never been loss to any deposi- tor in this city. This record will undoubt- edly be maintained in the present crisis. The trouble in which the Merchants Trust Company unfortunately finds itself is purely temporary. Patience and sym pathetic interest on the part of the de- positors will greatly aid in solving its diff culty and prevent loss.
 The Democrats advice to all its read. CTS is not to spread alarm, but to aid in re- habilitating the Merchants Trust Com pany. This bank has served the needs of large clientele. We sincerely trust that matters will be 90 adjusted that it will resume this service.
