DO-x, was roaring 5000 feet above the old Brooklyn
bridge, outside this office window, her way up
the East river after $4,000 mile fight, via South

Taking Samuel Johnsons advice:
Let observation with extensive view,

In response to pitiful appeals the ''bg shot," Mr..
Capone had said 81 shall what can do" He
did see and the kidnapped man came home. And
now Chcago's police are looking for Capone to ar

Mussolini announces program of winter work

Hoover and Walter S. Clifford, in charge of our prob

mittee of sixty.

all other authority for years, and he possesses
unique experience
An investigating committee alleges that Bishop
James Cannon, Jr. received contributions amount

Governor Smith for President. This emphasizes
the fact that the campaign in 1928 was religious

in jam. Please get permission from Japan to
fly the Pacific, nonstop to the United States"
Senator Borah will probably do his best, and the
wise japanese will say "Al right, go fly, but don't
