ALREADY COVERED
$4,000 Square Miles Have
Been Searched by Navy
and Coast Guard.

An area as large as the State of
Washington, covering approximately
$4,000 square miles, already has been
searched by the Navy and Coast Guard
in the hunt for Amelia Earhart, OFF,
cials at the Navy Department said to-
day as they released a detailed report
OF operations thus far.
Rear Admiral Orin G. Murfin, COM
mandant of the 14th Naval District
at Honolulu. made the report.
The Coast Guard cutter Itasca on
July and 3 searched an area in the
vicinity of Rowland Island to q dis
tance l20 miles and reasonably GER
tain search was efficient" Admiral
Murfin said.
"On July searched area 14-mile
front latitude 2 north, longitude 1T
west, to latitude 130 north, longitude
l80. and rectangle bounded by latitude
80 north and 80 north and longitudes
l80 and 179 west the report ex-
planned.
"On July 5, l4-mile front. from lati-
tude north, longitude $50 west, to
latitude $50 north. longitude l78 west.
thence to point 2s1 miles north of
Rowland. Searched that vicinity dur
Ing night.
On July searched from latitude
$50 north, longitude It's west, to lati-
tude 2 north, longitude l74 vest
The Navy's aircraft tender Swan has
combed the area bounded by latitude
$40 north-5.35 north. longitude l72
west-l76 west. Admiral Murf1n added.
The entire area searched thus far
embraces $4,000 square miles, naval
ofncials here explained
The battleship Colorado, now in the
Rowland Island area, fuel the Itasca
and these two vessels will continue the
search Immediately As she proceeds
to join the Colorado, the Swan will
continue her search. later taking on
provisions and fuel from the battleship.
The Navy Department said today the
Colorado will press the search utilizing
planes in the south and southeast
sector of Rowland Island and also
search the Phoenix group of islands.
Today at 2 pm. the aircraft carrier
Lexington is slated to reach IAhaina
Roads, near Honolulu, and will fuel
Tomorrow she is expected to proceed
to the Rowland area.
Capt. Wilbur R. Van Auken, on
duty with the Naval Examining Board
the man who successfully rescued
Comdr. John Rodgers and his four
companions in the Pacific Ocean
after they had been afloat in their
plane for nine days, declared today
that thirst is the greatest enemy ot
the missing flyers.
The captain said today that he
thinks the Earhart plane will soon be
found and his information is that
the sea is calm in that area, so that
chances of their rescue are good.
Doubling the authenticity of alleged
radio messages from the Earhart plane
Capt. Van Auken declared that. a.
was the case with Rodgers. Miss Ear
hart and her companion are probably
receiving messages telling them OF
rescue attempts.
Pointing out that persons in Miss
Earhart's predicamsnt can live for q
number of days without food, the
captain declared that water is essen
tial. In tropical countries rainfall Is
frequent and ofncials believe that
missing aviators may be able to salvage
some Of this water for drinking
purposes.

EVOLUTION.
DR.. John P. Harrington, etymo-
logical expert of the Bureau of
American Ethnolo1y. has been
deluino into the history OF words a
te1o thousand years back and
emerges iron. the depths OF his
studies NTH the first explanation
OF 1rhy Mussolini is III Duce" and
Hitler der Fuehrer.' Seems the
t1Do titles once Were identical.
Here's hoW DR.. Harrington dopes
it out:
The Old German word for
"leader" uds "tohs" Nou Latin
,ods southern dialect OF Old Ger
man and the southerners inpari-
nbly changed It" to I'd" and n" to
"k." the first southern draul, as it
were.
So "tohs" became "doks," or
|. "dor." From, there It was only a
step to "duu1."
And I'll Duce" Is the modern
Italian corruption OF the Latin
lille Duu1."

THE OTHER ANGLE.
DURING the centuries all thi
phenagling with the tongue wa
going on down South, the German
were playing tricks of their own Will
the language.
First they dropped the IS" from
'tohs." Then they changed the 1T
to a u" and the "h" to a e." a
they did with almost all the othe
words of their ancestors, for no reasol
we could tell you. Anyhow, "tohs
became "zog"
Then they went snooty-began t.
have things like hereditary titles
and some of the big baronial familie
appropriated "zog" for their exclusiv
use. They stuck herr" before /,
making it ''herzog," literally m

EPISCOPAL CHURCH
FACES LONG FIGHT
Question of Marriage for
Divorced Persons May
TakeeAII Summer.

and liberal elements Of the Protestant
Episcopal Church marshaled their re.
spective forces today for what ap.
peared likely to be bitter, Summer.
long battle over the question Of mar
riage for divorced persons.
The first shot was fired by the
church's commission on marriage and
divorce, with its proposal to liberalize
canon II, the divorce canon" by
giving the bishop Of each diocese al
most complete discretionary authority
to permit or deny remarriage of di-
vorced persons a year or more after
the divorce.
Under the existing laws which were
liberalized in 1881 the church permits
remarriage OF the innocent party only
in divorce for adultery
Tho proposal will be submitted to
the church's general convention in
Cincinnati October 6.
The Living Church, high church
| journal, will fire the second shot in its
| coming issue with an editorial chare-
ing that the proposed amendment
would negative the teaching Of
Christ" and throw the remarriage
problem into chaos"
The Right Rev. William T. Manning.
Bishop of New York, long opposed to
such liberalization Of the divorce
canon" was expected to take q lead
| ing role in the fight against the pro-
posed amendment. In 1881 he was an
outspoken foe of the liberalization, et-
fected soon after his expressed op-
position in the Living Church.
Chief supporters of the proposal
were expected to be the church leaders
in Michigan and Missouri, where do
ceses already have voted to ease re-
strictions on remarriage. The Right
Rev. Herman Page, Bishop of Mich
| igan, chairman of the Commission on
Marriage and Divorce, will present the
proposal to the Cincinnati convention.
