PLOT TO BREAK
JAIL DISCLOSED
Prisoner at Columbus Made
500 Offer for Weapon.
By Times Special

By Times Special
COLUMBUS, Ind, Aug. 24.-Wil-
liam Payne, 35, and Hubert Riley,
81, of Winston Salem, N. O., arrested
here on instructions of officers Of
that city, made an attempt to break
jail here, it was learned when a
hack saw blade was found in the
county Jail. The blade was pro-
duced by Chester Peck, Negro, who
is being held on a charge of second
degree burglary, who said he found
it near a cell occupied by Payne.
Other prisoners informed Sheriff
j. w. Foust that Payne had offered
them 500 if they would have a
revolver struggled to him and an
additional 500 if any one of them
would have an automobile stationed
at the south side of the Jail at a
certain time. The prisoners also
claim that Payne had three 500
bills hidden in a pack of cigarettes.
Payne also told the prisoners, they
said, that there were two 500 bills
in the back of his watch which Of
ficers took from him at the time of
his arrest. The watch and other be-
longings of the two prisoners were
turned over to North Carolina Of
f1cers who came here after the
prisoners both of whom were wanted
for escaping from the state prison
and on robbery charges.

Stunting of Girl FHe,; 19, to
Be National Air Race Feature
NEA Service Writer

CLEVELAND, Aug. 24.-Of the
thrills spectators will experience
at the Snational air races here,
perhaps the most exciting will be
the stunning of 19-year-old Doro-
thy Hester Of Portland, Ore.
Dorothy is a shy, blue-eyed girl
who, after a short period of train
ing by the famous Tex Rankin,
set a record for women fiiers Of
sixty-two consecutive outside loops,
and one for both men and women
Of fifty-six inverted barrel rolls.
Now Dorothy intends to break
both these records, and perhaps
the record of 124 outside loops
set by Roy Hunt. But these at
tempts will be only supplementary
to her string Of forty-two different
stunts she has in her bag of
tricks.
There stunts will be features of
the air race events every day.
Among her tricks are such diff
flcult ones as the double roll, YER
tical roll, tail spin, spiral glide,
falling leaf, Immelman turn, re-
verseme1t, figure eight, perpen-
dicular whipstall flying on her
side, vertical outside and inside
figure Fights, chandelles, wing
overs and inverted phases of most
Of these stunts.
Some Of her tricks are all her
own, never having been tried by
others.

Requires Employees to Till
Own Gardens on PEN
atty of lob.

DW UNitGN HTfSS
IRON MOUNTAIN, Mich. Aug.
24-Seed catalogs out of season to-
day appeared in hundreds of Iron
Mountains industrialized homes.
They were the first step in Henry
Ford's latest effort to lead his en-
ployes to independence of economic
cycles through homemade job in
STRANGE.
With many thousands already idle
and Ford's industries here running.
If at all, on sharply cursailed
schedules, remaining workers were
a bit bewildered by the automobile
magnate's ultimatum that every
man with a family who is employed
at the plant here will be required
to have garden to supply at least
part Of his winter vegetables; those
who do not comply with this rule
will be discharged"
While Ford announced that hun
dreds of acres of land here would
be made available for tillage and
products of it would be offered at
low cost to his employees unable to
supply their own garden space, ag-
ricultural experts will be in charge,
he said.
when the people of our country
learn to help themselves they will
be benefited far greater than they
would be by employment insurance"
the manufacturer asserted. IF our
agricultural plan is adopted
throughout the country the dole
never need be thought Of"
