Each mail in- creased the number of returned bal- lots which are due June 30. Tabulation began with the first bal- lots favoring a strike. They were re- ceived last night from a Chicago elec- trical worker who wrote “yes” across the square in front of the three pro- positions upon which the referendum is being made. hoa Neary one.and one half million bal- lots went out in the mails last Satur- day.

PRICE FIVE CENTS DROPPING 24,206 Dayton, O., June 13.—Lashed by a 120-mile an hour gale, more than four and a half miles above the earth, on the verge of suffocation, caused by loss of his oxygen tank and compell- ed to cling to ropes and straps attach- ed to a parachute for fear that a whirling cross current might weak- en and cause them to break, are sev- eral of the “mere” details related to- day by Captain A. W. Stevens, aerial photographer, McCook Ficld who yes- terday broke the world’s parachute jump record, when he descended 24,- 206 feet. ; The fact that it was Captain Stev- en’s first “drop” tends to make his feat one of the most remarkable in the history of aviation. He suffered no ill-effects from his hazardous trip. The plane in which Captain Stev- ens ascended, a twin motored Martin bomber, piloted by Lieutenant Leigh Wade, broke the world’s altitude rec- ord for this particular type of ship, carrying three passengers, when it at- tained a height of 24,206 feet. Ser- geant Roy Langham was the third member of the party. “For a long time I have wanted to make a parachute drop,” Captain Stevens said. “Primarily to obtain first hand information as to the sen- sation one feels. _ “When the plane reached the ceil- ing, I made ready to jump. As near as I could judge we were over Spring- field, Ohio. Bidding my pals good- bye, I jumped. FEETIN PARACHUTE DURING GALE AVIATOR BREAKS RECORD i Loosened Tank i The opening of the parachute loosened the oxygen tanks from its fastenings on the front of my cloth- ing. Grasping it with both hands I endeavored to retain it. “The wind was traveling at a speed of 120 miles per hour, and whipped the parachute around like a jack- straw. I was forced to use both hands on the ropes and the straps which held me to the ‘chute,’ in an effort to check oscillation, which threaten- ed to weaken the supports. It was then I lost the tank. I think it fell some place near Springfield. “It was an experiment I shall yever forget. Before settling down to a low- er altitude I thought my time had come as I was nearly suffocated due to the rareness of the atmosphere. Dropping out of the gale into calmer atmosphere below I quickly recover- ed however. Takes 30 Minutes “I landed at Jamestown, approxi- mately 25 miles from where I left the Blane: The descent took just 80 min- utes, “Just before taking off at McCook Field, an orderly appeared carrying a lunch kit containing sandwiches and coffee in vacuum bottles. We ate the lunch 24,000 feet in the air and enjoyed it thoroughly. The tempera- ture at the ceiling was zero.” Two hours and five minutes was required by Lieutenant Wade to pilot the bomber to her record breaking altitude, LENINE IS NOT (COULTER URGES TRANSFER HERE OF DEPARTMENT Head of Agricultural College Would Remove Regulatory Division to Bismarck NOT EDUCATIONAL WORK Head of Institution Says That Work Can Better Be Done By State’ Government Transfer of thé regulatory division of the state agricultural college to some official in the state capitol was advocated by Dr..
