Longs plan to restore prosperity

able and fallacious. Long has
promised that under his program

will be allowed to possess more
than between $1,500,O00 and $3.-
100000 and the country will be
free of droughts, floods and deserts.

-(UP)-A note from Italy de-

~ ANTIAGO, Chile, June 15.-A
new conquest Of the Andes has
been launched with the OPEN
ing Of weekly air service be-
tween Tacna, Peru, and Lapaz, Bo-
Ivia, by Pan-American Airways-Gra

Although the actual distance flown
is only ITO miles, the new schedule
brings inland Bolivia within . few
hours Of the seacoast, hitherto distant
by Q day and q night Of hard train
ride. Before the railroad was built
. comparatively few years ago, de-

While 1t Is extremely difficult these
days to attempt to predict the trend

two outstanding facts which are un-
deniahle. First. the Germans are
Inearirg the limit Of their isolation
and economic endurance and must
break the bloc which surrounds them

to advance with internal and external
reconstruction. Secondly, the French,
caught in the steadily deepening
crisis, must have political stability
internally and externally to combat
the depression. They have obtained
q maximum of collective security
under existing conditions. The next
step is to bring Germany into the
European orbit again. That Is LavaPs
self-appointed task. France wants

Soviet aeronauticaI society, laid out
two landing fields and refleling bases
for us-at our expense. One was at
Krasno- Ufimsk, O remote village high
In the Ural Mountains; the other was
at Kurgan, In Siberia.
Ten hours and % minutes after
leaving Moscow, most Of which time
had been spent flying through blind
ing rain and electrical storms, We
landed at Krasno- Ufimsk-with only
three gallons Of gas In the tanks
sufacient for about nine minutes Of
flying.
When we returned Mears promised
to regain his lost record, and two
years later-during June and July,
1928--he did so. In company with
the late @. b. d. Collyer, Mears brought
the time down to 23 days, Is hours,
81 minutes, . seconds, without having
flown across either ocean.
Zeppelin cruised from Lakehurst, N. j.,
to Lakehurst in IL days, hours, -

Starting from Roosevelt Field ut

gator, Harold Gatty, sped around the
world In the breath-takng time Of
9 DAYS, Is hours, 81 minutes. landing
at their starting point at 8:45 pm,
July /.
Not being content with this record,
Post decided to make q solo flight
around the world. Hopping from Floyd
Bennett Field in the same Lockheed
Vega, on July IS, 1898, Post landed
in Berlin, bucked bad weather across
Europe, Russia and Siberia to Khar-
barovsk, then jumped to Alaska, and
from there roared back to his starting
point to hang up . record which still
stands days, 10 hours, 4sh min
utes.
And now Clyde Pangborn, Bennett
Grimm and Reeder Nichols are hoping
to reduce Posts record to four and q
half days.
Will they succeed? That's In the
laps of the gods.
Can they succeed? My answer Is,
Yes. But I qualify that assertion to
this extent: Their equipment must
be adequate; they must be endowed
with almost superhuman powers OF
endurance; they must rely to some
degree on assistance from that flckle
creature known as Lady Luck.
Daily the theories of aero-dynamics
are being transferred from the realm
of speculation, thus improving the
sirplane; engines are being developed
to a state Of higher efficiency and
dependability. Therefore, the equip
ment available today Is, In q sense,
adequate.
Let these aspirants for world-gird-
ling honors support motor power by q
fine coordination of human agencies,
and with a smile from the Goddess Of
Chance they will wing their way
around the globe in four and half
days-or even three.

her usually soft, smiling mouth.
And suddenly Zanie was seized with
an unreasoning fit Of jealousy. She
was shrewd enough to know from
Sugars attitude that she was not
making a play for Skip. But it in
furiated her that her pet catch found
some one else attractive. It had
started out as a lark and an excuse
to get a closeup Of Scoop. But may
be 1t had been a mistake.
zanie Lou decided on the best
course to pursue. She would make a
play for the older man and try to
make Skipper jealous.
But she only succeeded In making
herself obvious. and in amusing Scoop
and Sugar. Sugars feminine intui-
ton told her why zanie Lou insisted
on the next dance with Scoop, and
why later she gazed at him lovingly,
hanging on his every word through
out dinner.
Zanie was a little discouraged on
the way home when Skip spent most
of his time leaning from the rumble
seat yelling his idea of smart jibes at
Sugar. She would have much pre-
ferred having him make love to her,
even at the risk of shocking Sugar.
1t was the first time he had ever failed
to try to convince her of his undying
devotion after couple of highballs.
Zanie felt frustrated, and the
thought Of going home in that mood
made her panicky. If she loss Skip
to a girl from the orphanase she
would be the laugh Of the town. All
the girls were crazy about him be-
cause he was rich and from New York.
Suddenly she had an idea.
"Oh, know what we'll do" she
leaned over and yelled to Scoop. Lets
go to Sid Patchen's house. There's
always a crowd and I want you to
meet him. It'll be something for you
to do while you're in Lorien."
What do you say?" Scoop turned
to Sugar.
"I-guess it's all right" she looked
little uncertain. If you're sure We
wouldn't be imposing"
Not on old Patch" zanie Lou as
sured them. -Four more people more
or less won't make any difference in
the mob that cutters up his place"
Maybe he doesn't like orphans" 4"
Sugar offered facetiously, but felt a
little sinking sensation at the idea of
crashing into society. Suppose Mrs.
LIE Masters should be there.
Don't you dare feel that way about
yourself" Scoop turned to her with
concern on his sunburned face. Now
know we'll 60"
Sugar felt treasured. II Scoop
thought it was all right to go it must
be. Anyway. they couldn't any more
than snub her. 1t would be fun see

York. I'll pick you out some night
and surprise you. beautiful lady"
"Oh, I'm not an actress" Sugar saw
the light, If that's what you mean by
a professional. I guess you'd call me
just home girl
She felt she should tell him she
wasn't from New York. And that she
was only nursemaid in the lie Mas
ters house. But she wondered II it
would be fair to zanie Lou to spoil
her little game. Patch put his arm
around her and she drew away.
"PleaSe-don't," she said shakily
hoping Scoop would hurry back. Il,
I must 60 soon. It's getting late"
Don't be like that" Patch's voice
was getting thick. Have a little snort
and come to. It's the shank Of the
evening
Suddenly Patch pulled her to him.
His kiss landed on her cheek. Sugar
looked up and saw Jim Carter lie
Masters standing in the door. She
hoped the earth would open and swal-
low her.
Well" Cart began slowly, whats
this? What are you doing here?"
Then Sugar saw Nancy Sue Jen-
nings and her heart almost stopped
beating. The brunette laughed toler-
antly.
II think it's quite obvious what she's
doing here" she said sweetly. But
since when did you start robbing the
orphange, Patch?"
All the color drained from Sugars
face. She got up slowly.
I'm sorry, Mr.. Patchen," she said,
