HOLLYWOOD, Calf, February 10
(N.AN.A).-ScoreS of strange faces,
shabby persons and shy, hesitated at
the door of the funeral parlors where
Louis Wolhein Is lying, to bid farewell
70 one who had done numerous little
kindnesses for them in a village where
the hand can be continuously in the
pocket 4 The heart is in the right
place.
The surest way to tell how a man has
lived in Hollywood is to see how that
man dies. The professional colony SUI
fered a genuine depression yesterday.
Even those newcomers who had not
known Wolheim sensed from the atti-
tude of their co-workers that a great
soul had gone.
His wife, too Frustrated today to set
tie definitely on the funeral arrange
ments, has been the recipient of hun
graphed condolences. The famous ac-
tor, whose fortune was his broken nose,
ranked among his friends the leaders of
this cinema industry.
But those apologize, shabby, self
ehacing ones, stopping moment TO
bid farewell to great soul and kind
friend, are the golden epitaph Of Louis
Wolheimt Hollywood career.
It's a village of here today and there

hopeless eyes. It's a little world of
kings and beggars, with very few middle
men. When the cinema gives it gives
with both hands. To those it merely
tolerates it is a life of ups and downs,
with the added curse of eternal hope
fitness
These shabby but eternally hopeful
have lost their two best friends within
q twelvemonth; Lon CLANCY and Louis
Wolheim. They knew, both these men,
the look Of hunger in q mans eye even
II his lips were smiling. They could
give without patronage. They could be
Kind without awakening resentment in
the object Of their charity.
And perhaps above all other things
even beyond their talents-this has
been the secret Of their success. This
quality Of human understa nding which
sl1one out Of their eyes and which was
sensed more than seen by movie au-
diences.
Welheims funeral will be as quiet as
he would have had it be-he cared
nothing for ostentation. Aside from his
career as an actor, he was a loving
husband and charming citizen who
dispensed gracious hospitality.

OFF ON TRIP
 TO BUDAPEST
 BY AIR ROUTE
George Endres and Alex ander Magyar Are
 Crossing Atlantic

HARBOR GRACE, Newfoundland, July 15.-George Endres and Alex ander Magyar, Reserve Officers in the Hungarian Army, took off in their plane Justice to Hungary at 918 o'clock this morning, Pa cific Coast Time, on their project ed nonstop flight to Budapest.
 The flight is planned as means of calling attention to the wrong they contend has been inflicted on their country.
 The fliers planned to traverse the Great Circle Route over which the Weather Bureau said was dan gerous with low clouds but favor able winds.
 Emil Salay, aged 58, retired Flint, Michigan, sausa age manufacturer, who invested $30000 in the flight, awaits the arrival of the fliers at Budapest. He bought the plane, underwrote the flight and financed preparations for the trip. The flight was conceived on the tenth an- niversary of the Treaty of Trianon to emphasize what the Hungarians assert was an unfair division of the Hungarian territory after the World War. Salay was accom- panied to Budapest by Mrs. Andres and her son William.

INJUSTICE HAS BEEN

Criminal Procedure L aw $ Condemned - No
 Recommendations

WASHINGTON, D. O., July l5.- The Wickersham Commission de- nounced as shocking to ones sense of Justice the laws under which the famous Mooney Billings, case was conducted.
 Embedded deep in the formal re- port to President Hoover on the methods of criminal procedure, the Wickersham Commission cited the case, arising from the bombing in San Francisco, as one for which motions for new trials are "held inadequate to prevent injustice"
 The report made no direct rec ommendation, however, as to how that case could be reopened. The Commission concluded that blame should be laid to the door of "in- competent weak or politics ridden judges" for much of the general complaint against the country's criminal procedure.

 MINING GROUP
Timmons Has Working Op- ton of Clearwater Group
 on Tulsequah River

With the entry of the Timmons interests of Ontario into the Taku mining district recently, revived in- terest in that area was reported here The Ontario capitalist has obtained a working option on what is known as the Clearwater group of claims from Capt. William, Art Hedman and associates.
 A crew of 12 men was put to work recently, it was made known here this week by Capt. Strong who left port Monday for his trading post at the mouth of the Tulsequah River. He received instructions while here to increase the force.
 J. P. Woodworth, an engineer representing Timmons, made an in- vestigation of the group within the past two weeks. He sailed from here for Vancouver on July T, talk ing with him ore samples for assay. The tests were said to have been highly satisfactory. And as result ot the showing made, the force was increased.
 The Clearwater group of claims is located on the Tulsequah River between the mouth and the Tulse- n,,ah Chief property on which con- siderable development was done two years ago by the United Eastern, The former group is said to carry good values in gold and indications are favorable for large body of ore. The present program of the Timmons interests is entirely ex- ploratory.

 BELIEVED SURE

 Are Unusually Heavy

One of the greatest packs of red salmon in the history of that in- dustry in Alaska seemed indicated by pack reports received this week from every district. Led by Bristol Bay and Alaska Peninsula areas every district is showing a splen- did output of red fish, attended by excellent escapements.
 Out of an approximate total pack of all varieties last Saturday night of l,800,000 cases, almost 100000 cases were red salmon. Bristol Bay alone, which had dismal fail ure in 193o, reported more than 850,000 cases packed to Saturday and 95 per cent of them were reds
 May Total 1,250,000
 This points to an unusually large pack in that district, probably about 1,250,OOO cases of reds, de- spite the fact that the Department of Commerce today began to tight en regulations and add to the week ly closed areas.
 Adyices received here by Capt M. J. O'Connor, Assistant Agent of the United States Bureau of Fish, cries from Agent Dennis Vim said the run continues to be fair along the east shore of Bristol Bay, but has slacked off to poor at Nusha- gak.
 The escapement is indicated by weir counts at Naknek which show ed more than three-quarters of a million fish had passed up that stream to the spawning beds. At IUgashik 120,0O0 fish had beer counted through.
 Chignik Comes Back The Chignik fishery came back with bang this season. To date it has packed about 85,0oo cases over 280,000 cases of which are reds, as compared to some l,750 al the same time last season.
 Kodiak reported almost 150,0o( cases Saturday night, about thirty per cent of which were red fish. Prince William Sound has put | up about 80,000 eases, more thar 20, 900 ahead of the same date 1T 1930.
 The South Side of the Alasks Peninsula is having great sea. son, reporting to date practically 200, 900 cases and is ahead of las year The North Side of ths peninsula is practically 400 per cent ahead of last year, some 47,00' cases as against a total of 12,00t odd cases in 1930.

 Associated Press

Associated Press Princess Ilena's approaching wedding is awaited with interest by an admiring world. And the in- terest is not because she has the blood of the Hohenzollerns and the Romanoffs and the Windsors in her veins,
 ,, It is not because she is a beauti- full princess who will have a royal wedding attended by so many fig ures who have been prominent in the melodramatic snarl in which King Carol has involved the Ru- manian royal family of recent years
 The world admires Ileana for her wholesome personality. for her love of outdoor activities and the un- selfish and democratic manner in which she has sought to brighten the lives of girls in Rumania re- gardless of class.
 Automobiling six ing, skiing, swimming, horseback riding, yacht ing goIfing, tennis and flying have left Ileana little time for pink teas and balls.
 Is Anti Flapper Type When the charming IT year prin- cess visited the United States with her mother in 1926. her healthful complexion. free from makeup, and her simple girlish wardrobe were generally commented on by 1 the press. In the age of flappers and makeup Ileana was just a beautiful, simple girl with lips which needed no rouge and lovely natural skin. And five years have worked little change in her ap- pearance.
 It comes as no surprise that Prin- cess Ileana should have a court ship in the air and choose a pro- fessional flier, Archduke Anton of Austria, as her fiance. Her pros pective husband is an aeronautic engineer as we'll as a practical fly er and is associated with builders of airships in Barcelona, where his i family fled after the Hapsburgs were overthrown.
 Princess Ileana has not qualified yet as an air pilot, but that will probably come very shortly after her marriage and it would not be surprising if she and her husband were to Nscome the European Lind berghs.

Governor Bone Discusses
 PIdns of CaIuin Coolidge.
 Admits They Are Unknoun
By SCOTT U. BONE

Insistent efforts are under way to bring Calvin Coolidge into the Presidential race. Persuasiveness thus far has been vain. As in 1927, he does not choose to run" On the subject of returning to the White House, he is as silent as a clam. Always a man of few words. he now says nothing. A usually con- servative correspondent, in New York, who went to Northampton recently and tried to draw out" the ex-president, found himself on a fools errand. He came back to base barren of the slightest hint as to his possible ambition. He appeared wholly unreceptive. This correspondent ayers that 80 per cent of the Republicans prefer Coolidge to Herbert Hoover. They feel that he could be elected, while Hoovers chances, with hard times still felt, will be problematical, at the very best. That depression will seriously affect Republican pros- poets, is generally admitted. But the thought that Herbert Hoover will be side-tracked for Calvin Coolidge or any one else, is too inconceivable for rational enter tainment.
 Third -termism in the opinion of some party men, would handicap the New Englander hopelessly. This fear is fanciful rather than real. He has only once been elected President. Under like status, Theo- dore Roosevelt did not hesitate to accept independent nomination in 1912, and he had served longer continuously than did Coolidge. The third term bug-a-boo is not of en- during importance. If success full President, why not keep him at the helm indefinitely? Oppor- tunity, is constitutionally afford ed every four years, to dispense with his services, if tried and found wanting. He cannot, as forefath- CTS feared, hoist himself upon the people and turn the Republic into kingdom. Their apprehension, a century ago, may not have been groundless, but it is imaginary at this modern date. Probably the electorate is the least concerned about it now. Third-termism has not been an acute issue in politics since the defeat of Ulysses s, Grant in 1880, and it cannot easily be re- vived.
 A humorist in print the other day accepted Coolidge's suspen- sion of his syndicate for the sum- mer as a sure sign that he was preparing to run. Facetiousness only. It has no such significance. He craves vacation, as do men in all walks of life. That is all. His daily philosophy has not set the country on fire or appealed largely to the masses; but busi- ness men and bankers have daily devoured it with zest and inspira- tion, and given it their adamant approval. It has lacked the hu- man touch to delight popular read ing, but, invariably contained sound reasoning. An ex-President, in the very nature of thigs, must weigh his words and watch his step as every move he makes is subjected to wrong interpretation. Epigrams or humor or criticism or comment on the policies of sue ceeding administration do not be-
