These officials declared the dirigi- ble’s commander, in suggesting a date for the flight, had been actu- ated by a belief that it would be im. possible for the Shenandoah during the first week in September to take} in all the state fairs she had been asked to visit in the middle west. Suggested August 4 On August 4 Lansdowne suggested the flight be made the second in- stead of the first week in Septem- ber, saying thereby additional time would be gained for preparations at Scott Field, Ill, and Detroit, to re- ceive and land or moor the craft on: its flight. The department in reply pointed out to him that the state fairs ran for several days, and that by leav- ing September 2 on the schedule ul- timately adopted, most of them could be visited. The recommendation for ‘the second week in September was disapproved, ranking officials of the department said today, for that rea- son and weather conditions did not enter into the decision. ———_—_—___—_- iq Weather Report | Temperature at 7 a, m.

B. Murphy, chair- man of the state board of adminis- tration, and democratic national committeeman, said today. The party which three times suc- cessively elected John Burke, now supreme court justice, to the gover- norship, is laying plans to enter the race for U. S. Senator. Anticipating a bitter struggle for the senatorship in the 1926 election, the democrats are preparing the ground with a view to entering a candidate in the final race. Murphy sees a no-quarter contest in both the Nonpartisan and Inde- pendent wings of the G. 0. P. to the extent that a Democrat dark horse may stand a chance of romping into office. The Democratic party has always profited by internecine strife within the ranks of the Republican organ- ization in North Dakota, Murphy pointed out. Profited By Split A permanent split between Rhe stalwarts and ‘insurgents in the Re- publican party in 1906 brought about the first Democratic victory in the state and placed John Burke in the executive office from 1907 to 1912, he said. The cleavage which characterized the Republican party in 1906 later grew into the movement from which the Nonpartisan league sprang in 1916, Murphy said. , The great fight in the ranks of the North Dakota G. 0. P. two dec- ades ago was to wrest control of the party from the grip of Alex McKen- zie, leader of the stalwarts, the Dem- ocratic committeeman stated. Mc- Kenzie held control of the old-line organization up to the election of John Burke, who rode into office on the support of a rebellious wing of the Republican party. He sees a chance of duplicating that feat next year. Justice Burke will not enter the race for U. S, Senator next year, Murphy said, ‘but the Democrats will get together behind whatever candi date offers the best chance of win- ning. “There are good prospects for a Democrat victory in the 1926 elec- tions,” he asserted, “and the party is getting ready to stage a real race for Senator. te peniten-} a motorboat and, NEW TELLS STORY OF ATR MAIL Postmaster General Takes Stand in Presidential Air Probe REVIEW ACHIEVEME ate Commercial Aviation Is Now Established on Firm Basis Washington, Sept. 23—(P)—The postoffice department, boss of the air mail ser ded its endorse- ment today to the stand of the War and navy departments nst fied, separate air servi in all the activities of the federal government would be consolidated.

States Position The Postmaster General prefaced this statement to the board, with an jallusion to the controversy over the r defense in which he de is, of course, understood that the postoffice d tment has no place in any differences existing among military and naval authorities as to the best method for carrying on their aeronautical operati “Our activities in the have been directed performance of an toward important service in a manner to dem- te to men of means that com- onst s a possibility.

Later longer lines were established, and on September 8, 1920, through service between New York and San Francisco was at- tempted. “The schedule westbound,” he said, “New York to San Francisco, a distance of 2,665 miles, is 34 hours and 20 minutes, which includes stops at 15 stations for service and ex- change of mail; that for the eas bound trip is 29 hours and 15 min- utes, the difference hetween account- ed for by the fact that the prevail- ing winds are from the west and help the eastbound ship while they correspondingly retard the one west- bound. “During the fiscal year ending with the 30th of last June, we flew on this trans-continental route, 2,076,764 miles, with a percentage of -96. That is to say, we flew that many miles with mail. Including mail, ferry and test we flew 2,501,555 miles. REPORT U. S.
