manner it did during 1915 and
1916, into the throes of war.
Weeks ago the Senate NUM-
tionS Committee introduced a Neu-
trality Act calculated to remove
the chief irritant which dragged
the United States into past wars
the protection of American COM
merce.
The heart of this act is that
war commerce be put on a cash
and carry" basis. In other words,
belligerentS trading with the
United States would have to take
delivery of their goods at their own
risk. The danger of American
vessels being seized on the high
seas was to be avoided.
This was what brought the
United States into the War of
1872, into the World War, and
nearly brought Great Britain into
the Civil War on the side of the
Confederacy.

SIX PERSONS ARE
 REPORTED SAVED

Dawson, Y. T., Nov. S-(UP)- North country residents to-day awaited definite confirmation of the safety of six persons missing near ly a week in Dawson Fairbanks airliner. First indications that the party was safe came late yesterday when Pilot A. B. Randall, Alaska aviator, returned here after a sur- vey flight. He reported sighting the Northern Air Transport company ship and its six passengers, all ap- parently unhurt, on an island in the Yukon river.
 The plane was sitting on the island intact" he reported. T cir- cled the area and saw six men come out of an abandoned cabin about half mile from where the ship landed. They waved to me, and it appeared that they all were okay." Randall's report brought the first intimation of the fate of the air. plane, piloted by Jack Herman of San Francisco. Dog teams drawing siedges loaded with food, blankets and other supplies were dispatched immediately to the island. The res- cue expedition was expected to reach the stranded airmen some- time last night.

 Take It As AffrOnt
 The parole officials from the Bay State yesterday and today obviously believed that the State of Massa- chusetts was receiving an affront when Judge Edward Mascolo gave the 24-hour continuance yesterday. limiting that the action was an in- direct refusal to recognize the war; rants signed by the two governors.
 In city court this morning, Judge McGrath said: "IIn turning this girl over to the Massachusetts au- thorities, as long as they have the necessary papers,"
 Miss Cahill was starting to take the girl from the court room when Constable Nicholas Jamele served her with the application for the writ of habeas corpus, thereby halting the departure.

"We're all for peace" Commis- sioner Bria declared, but most Of us don't think that the way to get it is by having students go on strike. And we don't believe that we'll get peace through movements insti- gated by communists"
 Students Apathetic
 Students at the high schools were apathetic toward the handbills. Most of them were tossed away at the school doors, and had no fur ther effect than the causing of good-natured comments. No pupils attempted to leave the schools at II o'clock.
 At Wilby high school, elaborate preparations were taken for recess time, but they proved to be unneces- sary. Some of the handbills were in evidence, but they were ones which the youths had received as they entered school this morning. Two policemen nearby were asked by Principal Joseph Kennedy to wait on Grove street. Their services were not needed. Teachers strolled about the grounds and corridors at recess, but no attempt was made to give out more handbills and no pupils walked out" at Il o'clock.

Operation on the Setit front have been defensive, so far as the Ital- ians are concerned, almost exclu- sively. There have been a couple of expeditions into Ethiopia for few miles, of an exploratory nature.
 Under Gen. Cuturi, the army of the northwest, the dispatches said, crossed the Setit river this morning at many points.
 The troops are mostly Askarls, Eritrean natives who have been de- lending themselves against Ethlo- plan raids across the river and now are eager to take the offensive.
 60 Miles From Border
 The Setit, forms the border be- tween Ethiopia and Eritrea for about 60 miles from the Sudan border. It is the only sector in which the Philippians have been on the aggressive since the campaign be- gan.
 Soon after the start of the first mortimer drive, the Ethiopians launched a strong attack from the south bank to create a diversion and compel the Italians to slacken their pressure on the Adigart-Adu- wa front. The attacks were repelled.

The tangle of legal red tape began soon after Mrs. Gomez Perry had been arrested here Oct. 23d, at the request of Massachusetts authorities. Presented in city court, the bride of but a few months refused to waive extradition, and the case was con- tinued to allow time for the neces- sary legal proceedings.
 Gov. James M. Curley of Massa- chusettS and Gov. Wilbur Cross of this state this week signed the ne- cessary papers, and yesterday Miss Madeline Cahill, parole agent for Massachusetts, presented the gover- nors' warrants in city court. At the request of Attorney Frederick Bauby, counsel for Mrs. Perry, she was given 24 hours of grace to pre- pare an application for Q writ fo habeas corpus.
 Claims of Mass.
 The State of Massachusetts claims that Mrs. Perry left the state with out permission, thereby violating the parole on which she was placed early in 1884. Miss Cahill yesterday told reporters that the girl is big amist, and that her first husband, Antonio Perry is still legally alive in Massachusetts. The girl claims that Antonio was drowned in a boat wreck, and that she had a right to marry George Perry of this city in New York last February. The Perrys are not related.
 Miss Cahill said that the girls Massachusetts record includes sev- eral arrests, some of them on vice charges, and one when she was found in place where dope was be- ing sold. When paroled, the girl

STORM MOVING
 TOWARD EAST

Miami, Fla, Nov. 8-(UP)-The tropical storm which has played hide-and-seek with Florida for 8 week was centered today 100 miles west of Tampa, moving slowly east ward. The 9:3O a. m. weather bureau advisory on the fast diminishing storm which killed eight persons on Ehe Florida east coast, read: storm warnings have been lowered from Apalachicola to Panama City, but remain displayed from Apalachicola to Tampa. It seems improbable that the storm will be attended by more than moderately high winds when it reaches the coastline, but all small craft should exercise caution for ar1- ether 24 hours on the Florida gulf coast"

 Was Drinking Steadily
 Questioned by Captain LeRoy, Egrillo said that he had been drink ing steadily since late last week. T went wild Wednesday night" he said, .sand I didn't know what l was doing"
 Yesterday police searched for Sgrillo as 8 probable maniac, but he appeared composed and in con- trol of all his faculties at the police station this morning.

 wednesday night, Sgrillo fired at 8 house on South eLonard street, then went to Rizzuti's store. Only a short distance from the plate glass window in the front of the store, he fired several shots inside, then fled. Rizzuti escaped being hit, and called police, but Sgrillo, who walks with a limp as a result of an old injury, could not be found.
 Couldn't Be Found
 Police found no traces of the gunman, but yesterday afternoon Mrs. Turzo' called headquarters to inform polio that her father was at her home and that she feared he might attempt more gUnplay. She had been warned that her father was sought through the Democrats $ noon news broadcast over WATR.
 Captain LeRoy, who received the alarm, rushed several squads of po- licemen to the scene, but Sgrillo had vanished. A guard was kept at the Turzo home last night, but the 1u- gitive failed to appear.

FAMOUS FLYER IS
 BELIEVED LOST
(Continued from Page 1.)


 But when he left Allahabad, in Central India, yesterday for this $50,000,0 900 British naval base on the "All Red"r route to the east, his low winged Lockheed Altair mono plane with its supercharged Wasp engine and controllable pitch pro- pellor was streaking at world record time. He was but 2 1-2 hours behind the astonishing record set by c. w. A. Scott and Tom Campbell Black in their 2 day, 9 hour, 58 minute flight from Mildenhall, England, to Melbourne in October, 1884, that re- duced former records to fractions. Kingsford-Smith was going stroSg then.
 Flyer Passed Here
 c. J. MelroSe, another record breaking Australian aviator, arrived here at 7:30 a. m, GMT, today (2:20 a. m., EST) -on a flight back home.
 As soon as his plane had landed, he said that he passed Kingsfrod- Smith over the dangerous bay. Kingsford- Smith, Melrose said, was obviously fighting. His plane was but 200 feet over the reaching waves, 150 miles from the shore.
 MelroSe said that he himself reached here only after fight in 8 fierce storm over the bay.
 The Royal air force crew here got into action at once. Signals to the Lady Southern Cross began flash ing out over the seas. There was no response, and the wireless kept up its signalling.
 Melrose, six days out of England on one of his solo flights to Aus tralia, passed the Lady Southern Cross at 7:15 p. ms Thursday GMT (2:15 p. m. EST Thursday.
 Infested With Sharks
 Great anxiety was felt for Kings ford Smith and J. T. Pethybridge, his co-pilot, because the Bay of Bengal is infested with sharks.
 Shipping in the bay and on the Malayan coast was warned by wire less to keep a sharp lookout.
 A squadron of Royal air force bombers, which happened to be at Taiping, $50 miles up the Malay Peninsula, warmed up for flight over the bay to search for the plane. The great aviator when he passed over Karachi, India, on his way to Allahabad, had made 4,130 miles in 25 hours-on flight which, he said, was just leisurely trip back home. Melrose, who told of Kingsford- Smiths plight, bandoned his own flight to Australia and joined in the search for the Lady Southern Cross.
