INSPIRES PARADE
Million Marchers and War
Machines Pass Stain in
Red Square.
NJ ehs Axsociated Press,

~ the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, November IA stream
of men, women and machines foWeo
through Red Square today In q salute
to Russias leader, Joseph Stain, at
the dawn of the twentieth year OF
the Bolshevist Revolution.
Estimated unofncially to number
1000, 900, the marchers passed by the
mausoleum of Nicolai Lenin, one OF
the founders of the Soviet state, atop
which stood little group OF men
who direct Russia's destinies.
In biting cold weather, Stain stood
smartly at attention throughout the
demonstration, which took most OF
the day. He was bareheaded and his
salute, was ungloved.
War Machines on Display.
For two and one-half hours Rus
sias military power was on display.
It ranged from well-dressed mfan-
trymen, marching at quick-step at
the head of the procession, to whip
pet tanks and then great numbering
machines with heavy armament.
At least a dozen different types OF
tanks rolled across Red Square, be-
sides many trucks and tractors which
hauled and carried all types OF field
guns up to 8-inch pieces.
One section of the seemingly end
less mass of humanity and machines
was a body of bicycle-mounted first
aid troops Each man was accom-
panied by a husky police dog.
There also were machine gun motor
cycle troops, with rapid-flre equip
ment mounted on the handle-bars Of
each motor cycle.
About 300 of Russia's airplanes,
mostly bombers and transports, roared
low over the square.
Army Called Peace Bulwark.
Klementi E. Voroshiloff, defense COM
missar, reiterated Russia's desire for
peace in an address to the troops. The
Soviet Army. he declared, was a great
bulwark for Russia's safety and for
the maintenance Of world peace.
Wrapped in their celebration of the
revolution which overthrew weak
provisional regime after the fall of
the Car, Russians gave little thought
to the fate of Spain, although a uni
formed Madrid delegation had seats
of honor in the reviewing stand and
was given an ovation by the spectators.
Despite Russia's sympathy with the
Madrid Socialist government, qualified
observers expressed the view the Soviet
administration has decided Madrids
cause Is lost. They said the Russian
government probably believes the fight
against Spain's Fascists Is not of suffi-
cient importance for Moscow to risk
any major difficulties with Great
Britain. France. Italy or Germany by
Intervening openly.

FLYER DEFIES
SUB STRATO IN
SPEED TRIALS


KANSAS CITY, Mo, Dec 4. Up)
An ace pilot flying a commercial
plane equipped with 100000 worth
of scientific apparatus today car
ried aviation another step forward
in the exploration of the substrato-
sphere.
High speed flight through the
thin air almost seven miles above
the earth was achieved by Pilot
D. w. (Tommy) Tomlinson, chief
research flier for Transcontinenta
and Western Air, Inc.
Despite the rarefied atmosphere
and arctic cold of the air above
10000 feet, Tomlinsonls expert

power, attaining a speed of $50
miles per hour.
The experiment was the climax of
two years of research for the flier.
With him on today's flight was jim
my Hiestand, development engineer
for TWA. Their goal was the dream
OF using the upper air as a high
speed, all-Weatner avenue for long
distance flights.
The experimental overweather
laboratory is an ordinary low
winged, single motored monoplane,
one of six that TWA purchased sew
eral years ago for carrying airmail.
TWO important installments on,
it, however, have transformed it
into one of the most efficient climb
ing and altitude flying machines in
existence.
These are the constant speed pro-
pellor and new, two stage super
charger.
This propellor's three blades are
changed in pitch automatically as
the plane ascends or descends to
provide the proper bite" to keep
the engine turning at constant
speed. AS the plane fulls into thin
ner air, the propeller blades are
turned at a more acute angle.
Tomlinson found last year that
his supercharged carburetor could
not produce enough air at high alti-
tude to allow top efficiency.
When he went to work with the
new plane, Northrop Gamma, pow
cred with a 7l5 horsepower Wright
Cyclone motor, Tomlinson used a
carburetor whose supercharger pro-
vided twice as much air to the en-
gine as had the previous one.

violators, who sought to avoid court
appearance by giving fictitious ad-
dresses, received severe shocks dur
ing October when 600 such viola
tors were taken from their homes,
vehicles or places of employment
by officers.
During the first ten months of
this year, Director Ray Ingels of
the Motor Vehicle department re-
ported to Governor Merriam today,
officers of the California Highway
Patrol served 4,403 warrants. AS
these arrests are permitted at night,
many violators have found them
selves lodged in Jail over night.
Others, facing light sentence upon
answering court citation, were TAX
en- to Jail, and kept waiting while
officers from distant part of the
state called for them.
AS the law makes no provision
for returning such violators to their
home towns, many of the 4,403 who
sought to evade penalties have had
to pay their transportation home,
in addition to an increased fine.

CASH PRIZES
BOOSTED FOR
COUNTY FAIR


Increased cash prize money, in
some instances as high as 100 per
cent over last year, and cash prizes
for many classifications and third
prizes where ribbons were formerly
awarded, are announced Friday for
the 1887 Imperial County Mid
Winter Fair. March 6 to IA.
Hundreds of the premium lists
for the fair this year are in the
mails" said D. V. Stewart, secre-
tary manager, "and as usual there
are SO many different competitions
that few valley residents will fail
to find prize awards announced for
their own pet specialties."
In general the plans for the fair
which opens March 6, are similar
TO those of last year as revealed by
the premium list. The Imperial
county fair board in a foreword to
the premium list extends its thanks
to all who cooperated in making the
1886 fair the most successful ever
held in the valley and states its
intention of making the 1897 event
even bigger and better.
Splendid plans, it is said, have
been made for the Junior Fair, a
separate department of the main
fair, and increased cash prizes for
the younger entrants will insure
even larger entry list in the ju-
nior classifications.
Significance of the Farm Bureau
activities in the area is revealed by
an increase to $100 for the best
farm center booth exhibit. To fur
ther encourage this type of entry
an increased award amounting to
SIS will be given each entry deem
ed worthy which does not win one
of the first three prizes.

State Authorities
 Expose Seed Racket
Commissioner King Appeals to Press to Aid in Fight
 to Protect Public Prosecution Threatened

Hartford, April 24.-The state de- partment of agriculture is warning the people of Connecticut to beware of the latest raScket that has crept into the seed industry. Commis- sioner of Agriculture Olcott F. King has sent out a bulletin asking the newspapers and radio stations to aid in exposing this racket of sell- ing worthless seed mixtures in such a way that prosecutions cannot be made under the Connecticut seed law.
 Commissioner King says, in part: "The Lake Shore Seed company of Dunkirk, New York, is shipping so- called grass seed mixtures into the state which are not marked in &C., cordance with the Connecticut seed law, yet the company cannot be prosecuted, and to make matters even more distressing, the seed mix ture is of very low grade, some of the packages having less than one per cent of seed suitable for a per- manent lawn.
 Cooperation Needed
 'The Attorney General advises me that the most effective way we can protect the consumers of Con- necticut is to secure the coopera- ton of the press and radio stations to assist in publicizing the fact that the Lawn Grass Mixed Seed" con- signed to Connecticut stores by the Lake Shore Seed Company of Dun- kirk, N. Y. is practically worthless and is sold in violation of the Con- necticut Seed Law. Stores in Con- necticut selling these consigned mixtures can be prosecuted and everyone is urged to be on the lock- out for the Lake Shore Lawn Seed mentioned above and notify the State Department of Agriculture as soon as possible of any stores that are handling this seed.
