cago. She had planned to sail sew
eral months ago but due to difficult
ties in booking passage and securing
funds she was forced to postpone
her sailing until now.
She had been instructed, however,
by the board as to clothing, utensils,
medicines and types of bedding to
take along for the tropical climate.
She had assembled all of these ar
ticles in readiness for the voyage.

Miss Welty will be in the same ter

Bluffton missionary, who sailed sew

DROSPECTS for a large crop
of early cherries are dimin-
ished as result of heavy frosts
of the past week, fruit growers
here report. Frost damage, how
ever, was not evident i'm all
localities and it is estimated
that more than half of the trees
escaped. Prevalent dry weather
is believed to have materially
lessened the damage. Frost
losses sustained by other crops
was negligible.

BLUFFTON ON
PROPOSED AIR
MAIL PICK UP
Representative of Mercury
Corp. Confers with Postal
Officials on Development
Collections Would be Made by
Pickup Device Without
Plane Landing

Bluffton will have direct air mail
service and connections if an appli-
cation on file at Washington is
granted by the Civil aeronautics
board, it developed the first of the
week.
If the application is granted the
plan will be in operation before the
summer, it was stated by Raymond
B. Townsley, public relations repre-
sentative of the Mercury Develop
ment Corp, Indianapolis, who was
in Bluffton comforting with local
postal officials and business leaders.
The service is now very definitely
past the experimental stage and
airplanes by a patented device can
pick up mail at $50 miles per hour
and without landing. The field will
be several miles outside Of Bluffton.
Although postal officials here have
several sites in mind, no definite ac-
tion has been taken.
BLUFFToN ON ROUTE
Bluffton would be on route in
cluding Is other stations. North
bound planes to Detroit would pass
over Bluffton at 9:49 a. m. Planes
westbound for indianapolis would
pick up mail here at 5:11 p. m. I'm
der the Mercury sponsored plan, it
would be possible to mail letter to
Detroit in the morning and have an
answer back in the afternoon.
Mail leaving Bluffton in the after
noon on the pickup route would be
delivered next morning in 253 cities
on the Mercury networks. The en-
tire Mercury Airlines operations
would serve 1888 points not now en-
joying direct air mail service,
Townsley stated.
FASTER
The advantage of the system lies
in the much greater speed in which
mail can be dispatched. Air mail as
now handled often involves many de-
lays through not having direct con-
nections. The air mail has to be
carried on trains to present air
terminals.
At the present time the Mercury
organization is asking permission to
establish seven feeder routes in In
diana, Illinois, southern Michigan,
western Ohio and Kentucky. Service
would be by daylight and would OPP
crate daily except Sundays, it was
pointed out by Townsley.
A service such as the Mercury
company proposes here has been in
operation in Pennsylvania, eastern
Ohio and West Virginia for about
two years. The service in no way
would compete with established air
transport lines. but doubtless would
bring a much larger volume of air
mail to them in the future.
CARGO AIRPLANES
The Mercury proposal sets out
that DGA-15-JC Howard cargo air
planes would be used. The Howards
would use the Jacob Model L-6 NIB
$50 H. P. engine and carry an 500
pound pay load at top speed of
165 miles per hour.
The Mercury Corp. is headed by
Harold l.. Plummer, president, a
former assistant national adjutant of
the American Legion. Other Off
cials of the company are experienced
fiiers, business men and engineers.
No stock in the operating company
is offered for sale, Townsley stated.

THE WAR TO-DAY
BY HARRISON SALISBURY
United Press Staff Writer

Adolf Hitler and Benito
Mussolini met at Bremen Pass
Monday for a conference
which may have dealt with
the opening of a new axis
offensive to drive the British
from the middle east.
The Bremen conference had been
timed to coincide with completion
of the Nazi sir-borne offensive In
Crete.
II came as axis commentators
predicted a powerful axis offensive
shortly will be launched from the
Egyptian frontier against
the Suez canal while British COM
mentators urged aggressive action
to forestall German occupation Of
Syria and to protect Cyprus and
other middle eastern positions.
POLITICAL QUESTIONS
REPORTED UPPERM0sT
The identical German and Italian
communicates on the Hitler Musso-
lini conference. however. made no
mention of military discussions and
emphasized that political questions
were uppermost. There was no
mention Of military advisers par
ticipating in the meeting which
was attended, as " customary. by
the axis foreign ministers. Joachim
Won Ribbentrop and Count Gal
leazzo Ciano.
As h also customary, the
communiques gave no clue to
the actual nature of the axis
discussion.
II seemed likely that Hitler and
Mussolini discussed both political
questions. dealing with the axis
plans for organization of Europe.
and military questions dealing with
an imminent new axis offensive In
the middle east.
Tension between France and
Britain over Franco-German col
Liberation WAS rising to the point
where semi-open hostilities seemed
