- VENING TIMES, Glasgow.-Dr.
. William Boyd, continuing his
series of lectures for teachers in

Il William BOYD, continuing his
series Of lectures for teachers in
IL the humanity class room of
Glasgow University, directed at
tention to the essential sameness" OF
the educational system throughout the
United States. He said that, consider
ing the States had the most completely
decentralized system in the world, the
sameness in buildings, in elective
studies, in class room methods and In
games was a most surprising phenome-
non.
The system was seen at its worst in
the small rural schools, with one or two
teachers, dotted everywhere over the
continent, in which more than 5000 900
young Americans got their start in life.
The great majority Of these, said DR..
Boyd, compared very unfavorably with
the corresponding schools In rural Scot
land. At the other extreme from the
rural schools were those in the larger
American cities. Whatever might be
said about the instruction given in
them, they were generally much more
intelligently constructed and equipped
than ours.
In all the big schools and many small
ones in some States library work was
a most valuable part Of the weeks work.
American children were Systematically
taught to use books for themselves, and
when they passed to college they were
not so helpless in that respect as most
Scottish students. Another feature of
the schools was well equipped assem-
bly, hall, called the auditorium, to which
all classes went at least once a week.
That feature represented the co-opera-
tive side of school life which 'our own
stress on competitive work has almost
crushed out" and it helped to make the
school a real community with social
motives for the work done by the
pupils.

Athletic Competition Growing
As New Hebrew Idea.

Palestine Bulletin, Jerusalem-In
the Spring we shall be seeing the
Maccabead, the sports festival which
should delight all who are interested In
athletic development. Here, like the
youth in many other countries, young
Hebrews have formed themselves into
Maccabee sports organizations with zeal
and enthusiasm, in reaction against the
old Jewish view that study was all i'm
portant, and athletic games but hea-
thenlsh revivals and pastimes, wasting
hours that might far more valuably be
spent over the pages Of the Talmud.
One OF the Palestine Maccabees re-
Gently said: If Jews want to be recog-
nlzeo In the world today not as strange
Survivors Of biblical times, but as a
LVlng people, they must have strong
sports organization, like every other
nation. They must be prepared to meet
foreign clubs in all varieties of games
and acquire sense of sport for the
sake OF sportsmanship."

RAID STAGED
ON VICE BOAT

VENICE, Cal, Dec. 10. U.P) -
Nearly a score of men and women
faced trials on liquor, gambling or
vice charges today as result of a
sensational raid upon an asserted
"honky tonk" pleasure boat while
merrymaking was at its height.
Near panic ensued when the raid

agents and Los Angeles police -
swarmed over the sides of the an
chored boat James Tuft and rushed
below where they reported 300 men
and women watching a dance in
which broad smiles were the most
conspicuous items of the girls

ed producing general melee as
patrons fought to gain the exits but
the raiders seized four women and
19 men.
Five of the men pleaded guilty
last night and were fined 500 each.
The four women, released on bail,
were to be arraigned today on vice
charges.
More than 65 officers took part
in the raid which was planned by

was blown from shore a week ago
Saturday by a sudden squall Of

A marine aviator sighted an over
turned boat early last week, but
before officers could secure a boat
and put out in search of the one
seen by the aviator it had drifted
away and has not been found.
Tatman and Mcdowell were on
hunting trip from Los Angeles
when they hired a row boat from
the Sea View service station. Early
in the morning they rowed the boat
out upon the sea. Two hours la
ter a sudden wind storm arose
Waves and cross-currents trapped
the hunters.
1t is believed their bodies will be
found later, as has been the case
with others lost in similar circum-

'COLD SPELL
NEARING END
Higher Temperatures Reported
In Most Areas With Bad
Floods In South.
BY United Press

Respite to cold-benumbed citi-
zens the nation over was offered
today by slowly rising tempera-
lures that brought an end to the
severest cold wave in three years.
While warmer weather gave re-
lief to the northern half of the
country, sufferings increased in
southern states where rivers,
swelled by melting snow, flooded
over their banks.
New York and New England
we're still digging out of heavy
blizzard. Thousands of unem-
ployed gained work to shovel away
the huge drifts. New York City
had 6.3 inches of wet, clinging
snow that hampered traffic and
caused accidents. Washington, D.
c., had one of the deepest snow
falls of a decade.
In the Jackson, Miss, area $50
square miles of lowlands were in
undated by the flooded Pearl riv-
er Hundreds of persons were
driven from their homes, cattle
were drowned. Many lost all their
household possessions in the sud-
den onrush of water.
Surveys of the district showed
water spread in deSolation over
miles of rich farmlands. In many
places only the roofs of houses
could be seen. Most of the popu-
lation took refuge on high land.
Floods were feared in other dis
tricts due to the abnormal snow
fall over large area of the south
during the cold spell.
Further north rivers were at un-
precedented low stages due to ice
jams which backed up water and
threatened additional floods. AT
Quincy, ILL.,, the Mississippi river
was frozen from bank to bank for
the first time in three years. The
river stage was a tenth of a foot
below the low water mark.
Weather forecasters predicted
milder temperatures for the week
before Christmas welcome news
to Christmas shoppers who had
been kept indoors by the record
low temperatures last week.
Relief workers found their bur-
den lighter with the easing temper
atures. They reported that despite
widespread demands for aid, suf-
fering had been less acute than in
former years because cities had
made ample preparations for the
care of destitute and unemployed.

NEW FRENCH PREMIER WILL
STUDY QUESTION Of DEBTS

ton on the debt payment provided
that President Hoover and congress
reach an agreement.
The new cabinet was obviously a
stop-gap pending Herriot's return
to power.
The cabinet discovered today, al
most a week too late, that a par
liamentary vote of credits to make
the December Is payment was not
necessary, as parliament had in
cluded credits to meet the payment
when the 1892 budget was approved
last March.
Payment became impossible, de-
spite the budget provision for It,,
when the chamber of deputies on
December Ia voted to defer pay
ment.
1t was expected the new govern
ment would hold the debt situation
in abeyance until the Inauguration
! of President ELECT Roosevelt.
Approved by Herriot
Paul Boncour showed Herriot his
cabinet list before he submitted it
to President Albert Lebrun. NAT
urally 1 wanted to get Herriot's
viewpoint, since the present cabi-
net will continue his policies" the
premier said.
"These are difficult days for gov
ernments. Few have balanced
budgets. Few seek to live within
their incomes But we are pledged
to the Herriot policy of telling the
nation the truth and exposing the
drastic measures necessitated by
the crisis and intended to reestab-
lish healthy budget.
ut remains always my firmest
desire to cut heavily into armament
costs and the maintenance of costly
armies and navies. France will
seek actively consideration of her
graduated arms reduction proposal
submitted to Geneva, based on a
common sense method of curbing
the arms spending race.
Herriot, busy moving his personal
effects from the historic foreign
office to a downtown hotel where
he will live in a three-room suite
instead of the enormous salons of
the Quai d'Orsay, told the United
Press that he did not regret the
political developments that forced
him out of office.

NOTED PILOT
MEETS DEATH
Body OF Claire Vance Found
Burned In Wrecked Plane By
Searching Party.

OAKLAND, Dec. 10 1l.P)-Fail-
ure to judge hrs altitude by 10
feet in a binding fog was blamed
today by investigators for the
death of Claire K. Vance, noted
pioneer airmail pilot, whose wreck
ed plane was found ON Rocky
Ridge last night after "a hours
search.
Vance hoped off from Oakland
airport at 11:45 p. m. Saturday on
his regular flight to Salt Lake
City. Less than 20 minutes later,
while flying through a dense fog,
his plane crashed at full speed into
Rocky Ridge. Vance was cremated
in the burned wreckage, and the
cargo of mail was destroyed.
Investigators said the plane had
struck 10 feet below the crest of
the ridge. Had he been flying 10
feet higher, they said, the craft
would have cleared the peak and
been safely over the Sacramento
valley.
Vance, an aviator in the World
war and inventor of the flying
wing" type of plane, had made
$500 trips over Rocky Ridge in his
IA years service as an air mail
pilot, G. E. johnson, vice president
of United Air Lines, said.
A dozen planes from Oakland
and 10 from Reno, New, began
searching for the flyer when he
failed to report by radio telephone
20 minutes after his departure
Late yesterday, Yves Moreau, pilot
of one of the searching planes
sighted the wrecked plane. After
trudging afoot four miles up the
mountain side, a posse found Vance
last night in the cockpit of the
demolished plane.
Mrs. Vance collapsed when in
formed of her husbands death ano
was under care of a physician to-
! day. Vance also is survived by
two sons and a daughter, Richard
six weeks old, Robert, 5, and Jac-
queline, 4.
Recalling the time in 1923 when
Vance was missing SO hours after
crashing in a forced landing in
the mountains east of here, hopes
had been held that he had again
escaped alive. In the crash nine
years ago, Vance finally made his
way to highway leading a burro
he had borrowed from a miner tc
carry his cargo of unchanged mail

|ND|CTS PAIR

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 10. U.P)-
Two former executives of the de-
funct Runnymede Finance company
were scheduled to surrender today
to U. S. marshal for arraign-
ment on secret indictment, pur-
portedly charging them with de-
frauding 1000 investors of approx
mately $2,000,000.
The indictment, returned last
week, reported charges Douglas H.
Riker, former president, and w. T.
Wallace, former vice president and
general sales manager, of using the
mails to defraud in their sale of
poultry ranch units. Their .attor-
ney, Charles w. Lyon, said they
would appear today and post $1O,-
900 bail pending trial.
Five years ago the Runnymede
concern sold half-acre poultry
tracts at $4,000 each, assertedly
agreeing to provide $50 hens and
feed them in exchange for 25 per
cent of the net profit. Dividends
of one per cent per month were
paid but federal investigators
charged they were paid out of the
company's capital. The "feathered
kingdom" collapsed when the pro-
motors went into bankruptcy.
Riker, according to federal Of
ficers, was fined $1,000 in San
Francisco in 1921 after pleading
guilty to a mail fraud charge grow
ing out of a hog ranch promotion
project.

the widow quoted Guy and DeLarm
as saying, during the course of tes-
timony at Guys preliminary hear

Mrs. Wanderwell followed Cuth-
bert Wills, engineer of the craft
to the stand. Wills had identified
Guy as "the man at the portfolio"
who appeared seeking Wanderwell
a short time before he was found
slain in his cabin.
A quarrel which took place be-
tween DeLarm, Guy and Wander
well in a Los Angeles apartment
last August was related by Mrs.
Wanderwell in leading up to the
alleged threats.
She said she heard a clamor in
the next apartment, and after
banging on the door, opened it to
find Wanderwell adjusting his tie
and clothing Gas if he was just
recovering from struggle"
whats going on here?' ]
asked" Mrs. WanderWell testified
"DeLarm said, oh, let the rat
go!' and started out of the apart
ment."
Guy and DeLarm told Walter:
You'll pay up or we'll fix you
good
"'Well go to the newspapers
and expose how you ditched your
crew in Panama, and we'll have
you deported.
I'm not afraid of what you
could tell the papers, Walter told
them.
And they left muttering, We'll
fix you"
Mrs. Wanderwell said she had
not seen DeLarm before or since
the occurrance. Then DeLarm, the
aviator who is Guys chief alibi
witness, was brought into the court
room.
OF strong Indian type, stand
ing more than 6 feet tall with
copper skin, DeLarm made an i'm
pressive figure. Mrs. Wanderwell
did not hesitate to identify him as
