AUTO IN CIRCUS LEAP

OCEAN CITY, Md, June ID.
In an accident more hair-raising
than the majority Of circus acts,
an automobile operated by Edward
Waller, of Salisbury, crashed
through a safety gate, hurtled
across the opened draw of a bridge
and turned turtle here.
Waller suffered cuts and bruises.
He was moving along the road
way approaching the bridge over
Sinepuxent Bay, when the safety
gate closed. Waller was unable

bridge was open about 10 feet
when the car leaped, turning over
three times in the air. When it
landed it slid 100 feet to the safety
gate on the other end of the

San Sebastian Captured
by Spanish Rebels

THE Spanish rebels scored their
l. greatest victory to date when
they captured San Sebastian, cap
ital of Guipuzcoa province and IA
nous Bay of Biscay resort. Santa
Barbara fort, dominating the city,
was first taken and the city's war
council then decided to abandon the
place, despite the opposition of the
anarchists. The more conservative
Basque nationals prevented the reds
from burning the city, only a paper
factory and two residences being
destroyed, and the defending forces
retreated toward Bilbao, accompa-
MED by thousands of civilians and
foreigners. Insurgent troops, COM
manded by Col. Jose Beorlegui,
marched in and were ceremonious-
ly reviewed. and the bishop of Pam
plona officiated at a thanksgiving
service.
The municipal governor, Antonio
Ortega, and his staff boarded a
yacht to go to new headquarters at
Zumaya, about Is miles west of
San Sebastian. The new line of
defense was established at Orio,
about halfway to Zumaya.
Government spokesmen claimed
considerable victories in the Tala-
vera sector southwest Of Madrid

~ on trial in London for draw
ing revolver on King Edward
during a parade last July, made
the astounding assertion that he had
been hired by representatives of a
foreign power to shoot the monarch
and they agreed to pay him $50 lbs.
The man already had been acquit-
ted on two of the three charges
against him when he made the con-
fession. 1t will be remembered
that instead of shooting at Edward.
he threw his revolver toward the
king, who was mounted.
On the third charge, of unlawfully
producing pistol near the king with
intent to alarm his majesty, Nc

Born one generation after Japan
opened her doors to the world, No
guchi felt the new spirit of the
times. He was loyal to family,
clan, emperor, race; but he was
devoted chiefly to all human kind.
From boyhood to the last, through
poverty and many perils, he studied
how to wipe out disease. He dis
covered the germ of yellow fever,
developed serums to prevent the
fever of cure it, led in the work
that has driven it out of America
and will soon put an enc to it
throughout the world.
Yellow fever killed countless mil
lions of all peoples. Noguchi's skill
and devotion have saved the lives
of millions, too many to estimate,
most of them foreigners to whom
his forefathers would have paid no
attention, calling them hei-min, or
no-folkS.
Noguchi'S self-sacrificc to human
welfare sets an example that is sure
to be followed. Perhaps, in time,
most men will see that il is better
to help one another than to kill or
even rob one another.

The pope spoke especially of the
situation in Spain, but said the crisis
there is "a school in which the

For forty minutes the pontiff

Reichsfuehrer Hitler, too, took
another hard Whack at the Com
muniSts at ceremonial tribute to
the World war dead in Nuremberg.
Before 100000 uniformed Nazis and
$4,000 others he boasted of Ger
many's armed strength an
shouted:
'Our old enemy, bolshevism, is
vanquiShed within Germany, but
still active around her borders. But
let no one be deceived. We are
ready at any hour. We all have
one wish-to maintain peace - but
with it goes one firm decision:

Ii Hitler, as some think, tries to
lead the coming five-power Locarno
conference into forming an anti
Soviet alliance, he will be firmly
opposed by France. Foreign Min
lister Yvon Delbos says so, and de-
clares France will under no circum-
stances abandon her military pact
with Soviet Russia.
According to Pravda, authorita-
tive newspaper of Moscow, Hitler
plans to attack and partition Czecho-
slovakia before he embarks on a
war against the Soviet union.
Benito Mussolini and his cabinet
appropriated large sums 20 build up
Italy's army, navy and air forces
to greater strength and planned to
carry on vigorously the campaign
for self-suff1ciency in raw materials.
1t looked as if the dove of peace
was preparing to leave Europe, and
as relations between Japan n d
China grew more strained every
day, she probably will have to take
refuge on the western continent.

himself.
The west coast states, California,
Oregon, Washington, cooperating
perhaps with their vigorous neigh
bors of Vancouver, and other points
above the Canadian border, might
well have few flying ships of their
own, sort of air militia.
San Francisco, where they COM
bine patriotism with plenty of mon
ey, and great civic pride and ener-
gy, might we'll start the idea Of
Pacific coast flying force. That need
not be very expensive. A hundred
machines to begin with, a hundred
plucky young fiiers, practicing the
gentle art of flying at night, and
dropping bombs, practicing espe-
cially mimic warfare against other
flying ma chimes, would constitute an
admirable object lesson to the rest
Of the country.
And if California, in San Fran
cisco for instance, should start
little flock of one hundred machines,
Los Angeles could be relied upon
to hurry in with two hundred, Seat
tie and other coast cities also.
Such machines need not be to-
tai loss.
In the first place, many young
gentlemen with rich fathers, not
knowing exactly what to do with
themselves, extremely anxious to
find work worth while, and prefer
ably dangerous, would delight in
each equipping his individual ma
chine, for the service of the Pacific
coast and Of Uncle Sam, as the
mobiles in the old days delighted in
equipping each his regiment, or his
fighting ship, for the service of the
king.
Two hundred. or three hundred
high powered, swift flying ma
chimes, directed by quick and coura-
geous American brains, would be
worth more to the safety Of the Pa
cific coast than hundred battle
ships. For the fighters that come,
if they do come, will fly miles above
the battleships.
They would come less gaily, less
confidently, if they knew that
trained fliers awaited them.
