RELIEF WORRIES
HOOVER BOARD
Winter to Bring Problem of
Feeding Poor.

By Scripps-Hotcdrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, July 2S.-Frank-
ly worried over the seriousness of
the relief problem during the COM
ing winter. President Herbert Hoo
verS employment committee has
dropped most of its other work to
concentrate on the task Of feeding
the hungry.
The committee is working with
the association of community chests
and councils in New York to help
local communities in the great fall
cooperative drive for relief funds.
The amount to be raised has not
beet set, each Of the $50 local COM
munitieS of the association setting
its own quota, collecting and ad-
ministering its own money.
The campaign will be between
Oct. 10 and Nov. Is and three
fourths of all the cities and towns
in the nation will join in the drive.
While the community chest will
call on the public for private char
ity, an even more important assault
will be made on the local public
treasures for tax fund relief. IN
aSmuch as it has been found that
q per cent of all family relief now
comes from local tax budgets, the
city councils are expected to take
the lead in supplying funds.

Faces Perifous Route
By United Press

by CHtEeU Ef66S
EDMONTON, Alberta, July %
Colonel and Mrs. Charles A. Lind
bergh have selected the "dirtist fly
ing conditions possible" for their
journey to the Orient, c. H. Dickins,
veteran of the Canadian airways,
said today.
He has flown the route from Bak-
er lake to Aklavik, across the bad
lands-a dreaky stretch of sand
ridges, rock and water, devoid of
vegetation-and he calls It one of
the worst stretches of flying country
in the world.
'Lindbergh certainly has picked a
dirty route" Dickins said. "I be-
lieve he should have planned to go
farther south. The best route, in
my opinion, would be more directly
west or come to Edmonton and go
north to Aklavik. There is a con-
tinuous chain of trading posts from
here to Aklavik and plenty OF
lakes"
Fog, caused by the glazing sun
beating on the cold water, will be
one of Lindbergh's obstacles, Dick
ms said. If Lindbergh skirts the
Arctic ocean north or Baker lake
he will find more fog, but also an
occasional trading post or Eskimo
settlement.
'The only post with radio COM
munication is Coppermine. If the
inland route is chosen, Colonel and
Mrs. Lindbergh will encounter less
fog. but they will not see a human
being, because even Eskimos avoid
the bad lands.

Guests Of Castle
State department specialists on
far eastern affairs who could tell
the Lindberghs much about the
countries they will visit were among
the guests at a dinner Castle gave.
Lindbergh said he expected to fly
most of the time at about los miles
an hour, the most economical speed,
since the Lockheed plane has
been equipped with pontoons.
They cut about ten miles an hour
off its speed. The plane will carry
no more than normal load of $50
gallons of gasoline, preparations for
refueling having been made at each
scheduled overnight stop.
From Ottawa the great circle
course charted by Lindbergh lies
northwest, touching Moose Fac
tory, Churchill, Baker Lake, Aka

From Nome the course back tracks
that Of Post and Gatty, round the
