ALCOHOL TAX PUTS
BILLION in TREASURY

WASHINGTON, July z. (UP)
The alcoholic beverage industry
contributed nearly one billion
dollars in taxes to federal, state
and municipal governments in
1886, the Distilled Spirits lnSti-
tute announced last night in max
ing public a survey of liquor lev
les.
The total contributed to federal
and state treasures amounted to
$S46,927,355, the institute report
ed. Figures as to municipal revc-
nueS from this source were not
available, the report stated, but
eff included in the grand total
would undoubtedly reduce eonsid-
erably the gap between the
amount which can be accurately
stated and the billion dollar
mark"

New "Plot" Executions In.
dictate Lack of Loyalty
of Army in Asia

MOSCOW, July Z. (UP)-Fir-
ing squad executions Of 22 more
employees of the Far East railroad
for an alleged Japanese plot
last night provided a possible eX-
PLANTATION for Russia's submission
to Japanese military threats in
last weeks Amur river dispute.
The new executions, bringing
to nearly 200 the number of per-
sons "liquidated" recently in the
Far East, were revealed by the
Khabarovsk newspaper Pacific
Ocean Star.
They occurred just before the
Amur boundary tension, which
threatened to precipitatc a war,
and strengthened explanations for
Japan's bold attitude toward the
SovictS.
When Russia submitted to ia
pans demand that her forces eva
cuate two islands groups in the
Amur it was indicated that the
Japanese-probably through ex-
tensive spying operations-realiz-
ed that the Russian armed forces
along the Eastern frontier were
honey-cOmbed With troublesome
clements and that Russia could
not rick a war.
The railroads in the Far East
are under military domination.
The % employees were tried by
a secret military collegium of the
supreme court at Vladivostok and
like the others convicted of sab.

Prince Constantin Cantacuzene'S
round-thc-wo world flight, the prince
was found in Paris and admitted
that nc intended to try and break

mer.
The prince then explained the
mysterious flight of his American
friend, Happy" Kaiser and three
Swedish aviatOrS, over northern
Norway.

for the flight secret until Id

authorities TO grant permission TO

and had been refused. | then

from Paris to Norway, thence
across the United States and
Canada TO Paris. Then | got
Kaiser's telegram saying: Wake
up Rumanian consul Oslo. We ar

One of the immediate results
of the news of the arrest was Il
voluntary invitation from the
Soviet government for Prince
Constantin to use all air facilities
throughout Russia for his flight,
and promising all possible help for
it's success, the prince said. He Is
still debating il he will accept. or
try his original scheme of hopping
off from Norway.
PLANE IN FINAL TESTS
The prince is making final tri-
ais of his bi-motor, monoplane
Renault Typhoon in Paris and
hopes to be off on his globe-cir-
cling trip soon. He would not
predict what time he expected to
make the flight in, but said:
"My ambition is to break the
record set by Post in 1888"
On one of his trial flights early
in the spring he brought his plane
on a nonstop spin to the center
of Africa.
Having determined on his prof.
ect for a round-the-world flight

As you know, the Northwest
Territory consists Of Ohio, Illinois,

lessly, s'it's some prospectors who
ran short Of meat and are looking
up . caribou yard"
On high ridge four miles down
country he stopped and glanced
back across his route, searching II
sharply for distant moving objects.
More and more he was convinced
that the trail back yonder had been
made by the Chiwaughimis. He
was not in the slightest worried
about their jumping the Kessler hill
claims: Corporal Northup had Sc
cretly been told about the lode. and
any attempt at claim jumping
would only land Lupe and his men
in the police Jail. But there was
danger that they had seen Patricia
and himself leave the hill, and were
following, and would try to bump
him of. Six rifles against one, in
that wild untraversed country-it
was the best chance that Lupe had
ever had.
As the afternoon wore along, the
wind got stronger, the cloud scum
began splitting snow, the tempera-
ture kept rising steadily till it stood
at 80 below. Craig pushed along
at good clip, to make sure Of
reaching Higginson's place before
dusk. Once there, Patricia and he
would be entirely safe, for the old
prospector had two other men stay
ing with him that winter.
They hit Resurrection q mile
above Indian creek, swung out upon
its level hard snow, and hurried
down stream.
At Higginson's cabin, in q drogue
Of pines on the south bank, Craig
knocked twice but got no answer.
He stepped inside. Nobody was
about. From long experience with
prospector cabins he looked on the
back Of the door for a note. It
was there, pinned to the boards by
a skinning knife; a note aimed at
anybody who might happen past
and use the place overnight.
"Hep yurseH to ennything. Ed
got his hand all tore up by a mer-
curry cap, an Zeke and me are
takeing him in fer Tarlton to hcks
him up. The caribou jerly Is up in
that rafter box, and don't fergit to
split new kindling wud before you
CO."
Somewhat dismayed, Craig hand
ed the note to Patricia. They've
gone in to the Bayl To see mel
guess we'll have to drop on down
to Hark Dawson's."
Patricia glanced at the scrawl,
looked up at him. ''Why do we
have to, Craig? It's 80 far to Daw-
sons. I'm tired, it's almost night
now, and the wind Is blowing 10
bad. Why can't we stay here?"
Craig shook his head. II the news
should get out that he and Patricia
had spent night at lonely cabin,
people would talk. And then-the
Chiwaughimis. He felt positive that
the half-breeds had not followed
him, but still he could not forget
those snowshoe tracks in that
drogue Of spruce.
please, Craig = please let's
stay" Patricia urged. I'm glad
that Higginson and those other twu
aren't here! We can have the eve
ming all to ourselves" She pleaded
Glacier County chief., 1937-09-17

She seemed to understand that some
danger threatened, but she did not
yet realize that those men out there
intended to murder him.
Craig told her the truth, 10 that
she would understand and would get
out Of the cabin, to safety.
'Treeshia, in plain words Lupe il
trying to kill me. He knows I'm
your dads enemy, knows I'm fight
ing the company, but the worst ID
that he considers me Q personal
menace to you. He's broken entire
ly out Of Warren's control. For
more than month he's been trying
to get me. This Is his first clean
chance"
Again he was interrupted, and
again It was by noise at the door.
But this time the noise was tre-
mendous thuppi that Jared the
whole cabin and nearly broke the
door of its hinges.
Craig whirled to the foot Of the
bunk and grabbed up his rife. He
had to stop those metis; they were
breaking down the door; they had
got a log from Higginson's wood
pile and were using II as q ram.
One more shattering lunge like that
first one, and they would be rushing
in upon him.
He leveled his rife, aimed breast
high at the door. and shot three
times through the middle boards
From the stormy darkness came
the short inarticulate cry Of q man
hard hit.
A silence fell. He heard nothing
more of the metis outside.
He clipped in three fresh car
tridges. II guess they'll let that
door alone" he commented grimly
to Patricia. II hope It was Lupe
that I winged; but that'd be too
much luck
The silence lengthened = three
minutes, five. ten. II was an omi-
nous quiet.
Craig's nerves were jumpy from
the sinister quietness.
''Patricia. you've got to get out
Of this placei They're planning
something. I don't know what it'll
be. but trust Lupe to make a good
Job Of II. You might be killed. I'll
palaver Lupe. I'll tell him you're
coming out"
II won't soi" Patricia refused
point-blank. ''Ths minute I'd 70
out. they'd start shooting through
the window and door; they'd riddle
this cabin and kill you. A. long q
I'm here they won't do that"
"You'vs got . ticket 70 walk out

"Thats that. Get your clothes

added. TO stop her from sobbing 70
heartbroksnly: "l'll stand . good

Air Condition
For Spring

Spring air conditioning for
homes, based upon the principle
used to condition the newest
airplanes, is the latest develop
ment of the air-conditioning in
duStry, according to William B.
Clifford, manager of the Wash
ington branch of the American
Radiator Company.
Development of the special con-
ditioning for spring, he said, has
resulted from refinement in the
methods used for winter air con-
ditioning, making possible the
continuous use of the latter in
connection with the widely varied
temperature to be found during
the spring months.
Especially in the early spring,
he pointed out, temperatures may
vary fro n near the freezing point
to days when the outdoor air
temperature ranges only slightly
below the 70-degree mark.
In the newest transport air
planes, he added, steam heat has
been applied with air conditioning
to meet widely varying tempera-
ture conditions at different alti.
tudes without interfering with the
air conditioning,
