WAR In AFRICA CUTS SUPPLY
OF WILD ANIMALS FOR USE
OF u, S. CIRCUSES AND ZOOS

IN hunting and it was easier for
animals to survive than it was in
nations where modern firearms
are common.
To show the extent to which the
United States depends on Ethiopia
for wild animals, here is a list
from the Washington zoo. All of
these animals came from Eth
opia:
Jumnina, an elephant: a hip
popotamus from the Blue Nile
region: an East African leopard,
one of the proudest possessions
of the zoo; a Gelada baboon; a
golden baboon; Hamadryas ba'
boon, which is said to travel In
large armies through Ethiopia: a
bustard, one of the largest Ethl-
opian game birds; a ruppelPs Vu!'

opian hill country; and two rare
types of starling-the crested

WASHINGTON, Oct. 81. (UP).
The zoo and circus business faced
a crisis today because the ltalo..
Ethiopian war has shut off one OF
the worlds most abundant sources
of wild animals.
Leading animal collectors SUCH
as Louis Ruhe and Carl Hagen
back have maintained permanent
camps in Ethiopia (they call 1t
Abysssnia, in defiance of geo.
graphical authorities) for years.
The empire of the King of Kings
has yielded many a rich haul.
So far the pressure on the cir
Gus and zoo people has not become
oppressive, but they fear that II
the war continues much longer
there will be a shortage of such
rarities as the Gelada baboon and
the African-eared vulture.
The zoo experts say one reason
so many wild animals are found
in Ethiopia is that, until recently,
the natives used spears and bows

BRIDE
IS KIDNAPPED
Armenian Named by Hus.
band as Offender, Is Be-
ing Sought

DETROIT, Oct. 81. (UP).-|
Pretty, blonde Mrs. Dorothy Nc
Graw, bride of a month, was kid
naped yesterday, her husband re-
ported to police last night.
Federal agents, city and state
police Immediately began a search
for Andy Elsigian, an Armenian,
who Dr.. ]. H. McGraw, a chiro-
practor, said was an acquaintance
of his wife before they were mar
ried last September.
Elsigian was named by DR.. Nc
Graw as the man who attempted
to drag "Dot" into a back room of
a beer garden while the couple
were dining a week ago. He said
the man became frightened and
ran away when he called police.
Mrs. McGraw, according to the
story DR.. McGraw told police, was
snatched from the street by two
men who pulled her into a green
Cadillac coupe shortly after 80
p. m.
| DR.. McGraw said his wife left
their apartment at that time to
shop for groceries. When she
failed to return he went in search
of her, and found people who said
she was forced into the automo-
lille which bore Florida license
plates. License numbers were
not obtained.
DR.. McGraw, apparently IN his
fifties, was nearly hysterical when
h burst into police head <larters
at $50 D. m. crying:
"They've kidnapped Dot, they
snatched her right off the street. y
When he was Gained sufficient
ly, DR.. McGraw told police they
had lived in fear for week, since
the beer garden episode. He SAID
his wife's diamond rings, which
she was wearing when abducted,
were valued at $500.
Police so far have been unable
to find any of the witnesses who
DIR. McGraw reported as descrlb-
ing the abduction. He was cues
toned for an hour and then al
lowed to go to his home.
He said his 35-year-old wife
was wearing a black velvet dress:
and small black hat adorned
with a white feather when she
left the apartment. She has light
hair, blue eyes, is five feet, eiPht
inches tall and weighs 140 pounds;
The chiropractor described
Elsigian as swarthy, about 80:

weighing around ITS pounds.

BIG TRANSPORT
PLANE FALLS.
KILLING FOUR
Motors ''Conk Out" at 500
Feet, Near Previous
Wyoming Crash

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Oct. 81
tUP).-Four airline employees
two pilots and two mechanics
were killed last night when a huge
United Airlines transport plane
which they were testing crashed
tive miles south of Cheyenne and
caught fire.
The dead men were Hanley
Cohen of Denver, a pilot for Wy
oming Air Service; M. T. Arnold,
United Airlines pilot; and H. R.
Kaufman and Ed Yanis, mechan-
les employed by United Airlines
here.
The crash occurred only 16
miles from the point at which all
other United Airlines transport
crashed October z, killing its nine
passengers and crew of three.
Last nights crash occurred only
few moments after the four men
had taken off from Cheyenne air
port to give the big Boeing plane
its first test after reconditioning
the motors.
According to Captain George
Smith, of the Wyoming state high
way patrol, who witnessed the
crash, the ship was flying at about
500 feet when the motors sudden
ly "conked out"
Apparently the pilot was un-
able to control the ship at all af-
ter that" Smith said. "It struck
the earth with terrific force, nose
down, and burst into flames. The
men in it never had chance"
1t was believed Arnold was at
the controls. Visibility had been
reported good" although the
night was cold and there was a
little high fog.
The Cheyenne fire department
sent equipment to the scene, but
was too late to do more than spray
chemicals on the smouldering ruins
of the great plane. .
The bodies were so horribly
burned as to be almost unidenti-
fable. .s
1t was said at the airport here
that Cohen, Kaufman, and Yanis
accompanied Pilot Arnold on the
flight "just for the ride"
Arnold had decided to take the
plane up for test flight, it was
said, and Cohen, who was at the
airport, remarked that he would
Ego along and get some instruc-
ton" ..
The Wyoming Air Service, a
connecting line of the United Air,
uses the same type of ships as the
larger company, and pilots of the
two lines often fly together here.
Yanis and Kaufman, the me-
chanics, were understood to have
been working on the plane, and to
have asked to go along with Arm
old when he tested it.
Coroner Paul Worland ordered
the bodies removed to the Wor-
land mortuary. He had not deter
mined whether an inquest would
be held.
1t was believed that department
of commerce inspectors would
view the wreckage in an effort to
determine cause of the crash.

Their strongest wall of defense

mountain to the deep JORDAN val

safe among the farm houses
around Jericho. But the Baby-
lonians were on his track. In an
unguarded moment with his army
dispersed for refreshment in the
region, he was captured without
a blow. He that pursues sin will
be pursued by sin. -...

How cruel is sin! 1t robs man of

CD Sin Blinds. "Put out the

the Oriental treatment of captive
kings. But it was not so horrible
as the treatment which sin awards
its victims. The spiritually blind
