FLYER WAS NEAR
 CRASHING BUT
 STUCK TO PLANE

Hartford, Conn. Aug 5.-(UP)- Knowing that if he "bailed out" of his airplane it would probably crash in the heart of the business district here late yesterday at an hour when the streets would be damned with home-bound office workers, Charles Descomb stuck with the plane and managed to bring 1t down safely in a small lot near the Connecticut river. Des- comb was towing sign through the air when the cable fouled on his tail controls. The sign broke loose, but the cable remained fast about the tail of the plane.
 "I had just about decided to jump when I realized the plane would fall among the crowds" Descomb said. "I decided to try for a landing. The lot where set the plane down was the first open space I saw"

PRODUCERS OF MILK HAVE NOT 7
 YET FINISHED
Increase of Prices. Goes Into Effect August 10, But Governor Cross Is to Get Protest

Hartford. Conn, Aug 5-(UP)- The increase in milk prices, or- dered by the state milk control board to become effective August 10. will not prevent the producing farmers from presenting the so- called Wadhams resolution to Gov ernor Cross, it was understood here to-day.

They also want the milk surplus placed under control. milk conditions sta tions established and committee of dairymen named to look after tehir interests. If the. conditions are mot met by August 10 they in- sistSa milk strike will follow.
 The new price, which increases the cost to the consumer by two cents, is to be effective August TO-, and applies to all dealers. The producer will receive an increase of one and three cents 8 quart for his milk, and the distrib- utors will receive the other quarter cent under the higher scale.

PRESIDENT HELPS
 GEN. JOHNSON TO sl0 END MINE STRIKE
5O,OOO Men Returned to Work Monday and 100000 Others Are Thus Prevented From Striking Dramatic End in Threat Against Recovery

by Secretary Marvin H. Mcintyre of the White House stan after Johnson concluded his conversa- tions, Mir Roosevelt extended his thanks to the intermediates. "A great coal strike," the presi- dent said, threatened the entire bituminous field and-because of the scant storage at factories also threatened the revival of man. ufacture on' which so much de- bends.
 "On the basis of a simple sug- gestion for settlement made by General Johnson, both manage ment and labor. have declared an absolute truce on dissensions at the mines to await the resolution of the whole matter at the com ing hearings on the coal codes. .
 Tn the meantime, all disagree ments are to be settled by a board of my selection to which both sides agree-Gerald Swope, Louis Kirstein and George L. Berry. Never in our country has a strike of such threatened proportions been settled so quickly and so gen. erously.
 "The public spirited men on both sides of the agreement are to be congratulated in thus avert ing threatened disaster but can not let the occasion pass without referring to the tireless and con- structive labors of the inter- mediaries. Gov. Pinchot, Gerard Swope, Edward McGrady and Walter Teagle, as we'll as .the op- orators and to John Lewis and other representatives of the min- CTS"
 Immediately after announcing the end of the coal strike, the president signed the code of the electrical and the cloak and suit industries.
 Gen. Johnson's visit to Hyde Park was. dramatic from the time his big tri-motored army plane was sighted over the government airfleld until he dragged himself. weary and rubbing his eyes, to his room in the Nelson hotel in Poughkeepsie.
 Three times the plane circled the field, dropping a parachute flare on one of its rounds, before the pilot, It. Stanley Umstead of Boiling field brought it to earth. Out stepped Johnson, Edward McGrady, labor advisor to the N. R. A., and Johnson's secretary, Miss Frances Robinson, who car- ried q bundle o< documents.
 They were met by Mcintyre with Q White House automobile and driven at fifty mile an hour clip to the home of the president, where Jta nson lost no time in ex- plaining the truce that had been agreed to in Washington.
 There will be a hearing on the codes August g." Johnson an- nounc4d, when he returned to Poughkeepsie from Hyde Park. He added solemnly:
 If this strike hadn't been stopped 1t meant that there would have been 100000 men out instead of 50,O00."
 Explaining the personnel of the special board, he pointed out that two were members of the re- covery advisory board. They are Louis Kirstein. associated with the Filene company of Boston, and Gerard Swope. head Fof General Electric company. Tho third member, George L. Berry, is pres- 3ident of the Prossmen's Union.

 New York, Aug. 5-(UP) - Stocks lost small amounts in the averages in the week just ended with sales the smallest for any week since that ended April Is.
 The market was closed today in line with a recent exchange or- der which is to be continued un- til and including Saturday, Sep tember 2. Yesterdays session came to an abrupt halt at 12:10 p. m. when someone threw gas bombs into the ventilating system and drove the brokers out on a run.
 At the time of bomb episode the market was in one of the dullest sessions since resumption of trad- ing after the bank holiday. Prices had been making moderate recov- cry from early lows on the usual weekend short covering. The sudden closing prevented extension of the recovery and the bears who failed to buy were looking for a restless weekend in fear of some favorable development.
 Trading will be resumed in stocks and bonds on Monday, the exchange announced.

 Hyde Park, N. r., Aug. 5- (UPl-General Hugh S. Johnson, national recovery administrator, backed by a determined president, ended the strikes in the Pennsyl- vania coal fields early today. The president had seen in the strikes a dangerous threat to the nations industry and his gigantic pro- gram for industrial recovery.
 The president himself announc- ed the absolute truce" between miners and mine owners which will send 50,000 men back to work on Monday and prevent 200, 900 others from going on strike. Terms of the truce substantially effected preservation of the status quo pending hearings on the coal in- dustry's code under the national recovery act.
 Creation of special govern ment board to mediate all dis putes between labor and capital during the life of the recovery program was strongly indicated to be part of the immediate plans of MT Roosevelt and General Johnson.
 4ue CuieL exeCuIlVeS announce ment, made at the summer White House under dramatic circum- stances, came at the end of hectic and frantic 12 hours for Johnson. Mir Roosevelt, and lead CTS of miners and coal operators. After a long conference in Wash ington at which Johnson presided, labor and capital agreed to the truce. Johnson came here by air plane and obtained the approval of the president who had been . keeping in touch with the confer- ence by telephone
 The truce had two chief points: CD the miners will return to work without prejudice and their dis pute with operators will be aired at the coal code hearings begin- ming August g; CD until the in- dustry's code is adopted, all dis- agreements will be settled by a board of three chosen by the pres- ident.
 Never in our country has a strike of such threatened propor- tions been settled so quickly and so generously, Mir Roosevelt de- clared. ,..

Tt wasn't Tony" Mrs Smith said. II was so hopeful when I read the advertisement- described him so perfectly, even to the brown spots on his ears"
 Often during the week Mrs Smiths hopes have scared. Last night large dark automobile drove up in front of her apartment. Mrs Smith was buoyant as she watched, hopeful it brought an- other message from the kidnapers. She peered expectantly from be- hind the drawn blind. "A young woman got out of the car, followed closely by a man. They embraced only some sweethearts saying goodnight, and mel so hoped 1t was word from Tony"

In witness whereof | have here
unto subscribed my name on the
day and year aforesaid M. K. At
kinson, j. p. Received for record
April %. 1885. ago o'clock. Re-
corded April %, 1885.
We noted on the deed, in refer

sary." We understand another
small parcel of land was later pur-
chased or dona ted 10 the church, bu+
we find no mention of it in any OF
the records either county or church.
On a recent visit when we went
through the cemetery, we did not
trv to count the graves. We noted
the great number of high priced
monuments.
Since writing the above, we have
received two ledgers containing
records Of the church, which con-
tain much of interest relative to the
church history.
At a meeting of the congregation,
Dec. 4, 1884. which had been called
to discuss the question of new
church house, the following build
ing committee was chosen: Samuel
Grimes, Eli McInturf, ". G. Cho-
gull, Thomas Hopes and Mordecai
Adrian. At meeting Jan. p
1885, the building committee were
made trustees. We find the church
was dedicated Sept. 6, 1885, Will
Rev. Van Pelt officiating.
The writer of these records failet
to sign their name. We note thf
church cost $1,000. We presume
/ this was in cash, besides work ant
material donated.
/ At the time of the dedication
protracted meeting was held. an(
resulted in 81 additions by baptism
Rev. Van Pelt received $50 for hi
I labors. At this time the old house
was sold for $40.
In our next installment we viii
/ give names of ministers as we finC
them in this old record. While W.
think of it, we notice the name o
+ J. F. Moody. We remember thi
! man conducting funeral some
where near the R. B. Pierpoint resi-
