BLAST GREETS
KING IN GENOA

GENOA. italy, Aug. 1 GN.SO. 3.
Italy launched her latest bid for
transatlantic steamship honors
today when the great new liner
Rex slid down the ways in the
presence of the King and Queen
and distinguished visitors from
all over the country.
The launching was preceded by
a bomb explosion-the twelfth to
occur in Italy within the last
three months. No damage was
done, but there was considerable
excitement. Genoa authorities
blamed the explosion on radical
elements deSirouS of running the
launching ceremonies by dis
play of violence.
The blast occurred several
hours before the actual launch
ing, however, and none of the
government officials and invited
guests were endangered.
Credited with speed Of 27
knots an hour, the Rex is ex-
pected to ply between Naples and
New York in an average of
seven days. Cardinal Minoretti
blessed the huge liner as it sped
down the ways into the water.

IsTANBUL, Turkey, Aug. /
G.N.S) Refreshed by another

Russell Boardman and John Po-

Col. and Mrs. Charles A. Lind.
bergh took off from here today
for the sub-arctic wastes of Can,

flight to Tokyo, &.
The Lindberghs took the air
at 1880 a. m. and expected to
land at Moose Factory, on James
Bay, 461 miles away.
Takes Northern Route
Moose Factory, 80 miles from
the nearest telephone, is located
in the widest country of Can
ada. The Colonel is taking the
northern route across Canada in
spite of warnings from Canadian
aivators that he will meet fog
and unfavorable weather condi-
tions on the flight.
Lindbergh declared, however,
that if the weather became too
bad they could deviate on their
course and fly 100 or 200 miles
south. He said that since they
were not planning to maintain
any schedule they could land
safely if they encounter bad
weather and wait until the skies
clear.
Then Hit for Yukon
Moose Factory, the goal of the
Lindberghs today, is a trading
post of the Hudson Bay Company.
From there they plan to fly to

COOLIDGE 1882
BOOM ST|RS
POLITICIANS
Capital Agog at DR.. Coupaps
Statement ThatEx-President |
Will Run Again If Drafted
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES

Politicians in Washington were
genuinely interested today by the
intimation that Calvin Coolidge
would not be averse to becoming
presidential candidate in 1882
under certain conditions.
The first of these conditions is,
of course, that President Hoover
retire from the picture, and the
second is that Mr.. Coolidge would
not be called upon to make
fight for the Republican nOmina-
tiOn.
The intimation came from Col.
James F. Coupal, who not only
was Mr.. Coolidge's physician
throughout his tenure of the
White House, but was and is his
close persona friend.
In Receptive Mood
Colonel Coupal is quoted from
Lake Minnetonka, in Minnesota,
where he is spending a vacation,
as saying that Mr.. Coolidge was
a disappointed man when his
famous statement, Il do not
choose to run" was taken so
literally.
AS further quoted by the st.
Paul Dispatch, Colonel Coupal
said:
"Mr. Coolidge will run for the
presidency in 1882 if tho people
of this country evince an un-
mistakable desire to draft him
to pull the country out of this
period of depression, and if he
can have the presidency with
out any political or other obi
cations attaching to it,"
Starts Speculation
If it does nothing more, this
statement by a man as close to
the former President as his physi-
clan, opens up a wide field for

Corruption AssaiIed in 14th
Report of Wickersham Unit;
Short Chief Terms DepIored

1neffectiveness of police depart

Eide of crime is traced directly
TO the shortness of service of the
chief or executive head of the

by the WickerSham Law Enforce
ment Commission submitted to

Other principal evils in police
administration found by the COM
mission are: lack Of competent.
efficient and honest patrOlmen

efficient communication systems;
alliance between criminal and
corrupt politicians which controls
police in large cities; large alien
and cOlOred populations; and too
many duties placed upon officers
