sates { ‘MONDAY, ‘AUGUST 18, 1928 ~ INTERNATIONAL |TEXAS DEMOCRACY TRAINS GUNS ON j AIRLINES PLANE IN CITY TODAY Second Group of Minot Busi- nessmen Confer on Inter- city Service Flying here from Minot this morn- ing, officials of the International Airlines conferred with Chairman! Fay Harding of the state railroad board regarding plans for opening an airline between Minot and Bis- marck. Although final decision has not ‘been made, the company contem- plates beginning service next week with a monoplane which will acccm- modate four passengers and a pilot. Rates and a schedule of service will be filed with the railroad board in the near future. The company con- templates operating a tri-weekly service while the airline is in its trial stages. : Harding said tke state railruad board is not disposed at this time to t take jurisdiction of rates and sched- ules for airlines, preferring to wait until they are established and have which to base decisions in these mat- ters. The only regulation upon which the railroad beard will insist now with regard to :\rlines will be the insurance and proper protection ear lives of passengers, HMardiug said. The Minot men said they have ar- ranged for $10,000 insurance upun the life of each passenger carried. Hope that flying facilities may be established at Fort Lincoln was ex- pies by. the visitors after they ad examined the local airport. " he fact that the airport is in a valley below the city would make its use inadvisable for large planes, they said, even if it were substantially larger. They conferred with O. W. Rob- erts, chairman of the aeronautical committee of the Association of * Commerce, and othe: local people before returning to Auinot this after- noon. . ‘TUNNEY SNEAKS ‘ At his hotel here he refused INTO NEW YORK : Rumored Marriage May Oc- cur Before European Walk- ing Trip Starts New York, Aug. 13.—)—Gene Tunney, retired heavyweight cham- pion, returned to New York toda; from a visit at St. Johns Island, Maine, the summer home of Miss Mary Josephine Lauder, his fiancee.

A die-hard struggle is becoming evident between straight-ticket tra- dition and the collective “conscience” of those opposing Gov. Alfred E. Smith for president and planning to allot box. FO" party ity overboard, some mt ake bolt leaders have said their conscience will not let them vote for Smith because of his prohibition stand. Meanwhile Republicans, who usu- ally poll only a negligible vote in Texas, cherish high hopes that the situation will foster a democrat! rush to Hoover and make their dreams of a two-party state come rue, Although only 31,000 votes were cast for the last republican candi- date for governor, publican opponent ieee to the straight demo- ernor Miriam Fe: got nearly 300,000 votes in 1924 as the result of a democratic bolt. The result of the race of Thomas Love, former democratic national committeeman, for lieutenant gov- ernor in the late August run-off pri- mary may supply ‘a definite criterion of the anti-Smith strength in Texas.

He is opposing Barry iller, a Smith supporter. An int ive concern for the safety of prohibition is offered by most’ of 5 announced bolters as the reason E state senator from Dallas, has for their opposition to the New Yorker. The religion issue has been solf-pedalled in political circles. As a natural sequel to the riotous splits over Smith in some of the county conventions the fight will be renewed at the September state con- vention, which has been called to Tatify state primary nominees and evolve a platform. Rival delegations will present themselves from coun- ties containing three of the state's largest cities—Fort Worth, Dallas Houston, where Smith men and party bolters had separate conven- tions after calling each other “Hoover democrats” and “Brass Col- la: democrats.” Curiously enough, the smaller ie cami Tegriils supposed to have anti-Smi leanings, held predomi- nantly harmonious conventions and in many states condemned the bolt- ers. “Vote tickét straight” is almost a religious rite with a large section of ‘exas democrats, and that recognized fact is relied upon by the regulars to stem the bolt, which is emanating mainly from the cities where the W. C. T.'U. is adding its voice to the plea for Hoover. Love's name will be barred from the tickets in several counties in the second primary because of his anti- Smith stand. Omaha, Neb., had breakfast there, and spent the day at a business con- ference. Tomorrow they will get up early again and fly back to Minneapolis in time to have breakfast here before settling down to work again at their desks at the usual hour—the first time in the business history of the northwest that such a feat of speedy transportation has been undertaken. The twelve men, all representa- tives of the General Outdoor Adver- tising company, left the Twin Cities at 4:30 a.m. in the tri-motored ship of the Jefferson Airways, Inc. The airport, in the cold grey hours be- fore dawn, assumed a festive aspect, as families and friends of the busi- ness men drove up to see the plane take off. Despite the early hour there was a crowd on hand when the 12 departed.

Vernacular newspapers also print- ed dispatches from Mukden today telling of a farewell conversation be- tween Chang and Baron Consuke Hayashi, who was sent to Mukden to explain officially the views of Premier Tanaka of Japan and to represent Japan at the formal fu- neral of Chang's father, Marshal Chang Tso-lin, once director of northern China. Young Chang was reported to have informed the baron that he had decided to suspend negotiations for a compromise with Nanking because of uncertainty in China proper, as besa dee] in the plenary session of the Koumintang at Nanking, ARRESTED MEN PAY $150 FINES .Week-end lawbreakers kept the Bismarck police force busy, Chief Chris J.

In its report of the investigation lated Press said that Presiding Judge Wattine mentioned name Mr. Malone, Charles G. Loeb, and Benjamin H. Conner, president of the American Chamber of, Commerce in Paris.

MERCURY HITS 100 MARK HERE Soda Sales Jump as Sun’s Rays Scorch Bismarck and the Slope Though the mercury leaped to 100 degrees in the shade in Bismarck Saturday afternoon, the city was really an icebox in comparison to Medora Sept. 3, 1912, when the ther- mometer registered 124 dvgrees, 9. W. Roberts, U. S. meteorologist, said today. The Medora temperature was the greatest ever recorded in this state, and it was 118 the day before. Bismarck and the district will cool off tomorrow after a week of sweltering weather which has brought ice cream, soda, and ice sales to mammoth proportions and left sunny spots deserted, Mr. Kob- erts says. There will be ho rain here for at least a few days, he said. With the temperature at 90 yes- terday, Bismarck residents sought relief out of the city in woode tracts where almost a hundred pic- nics, some large and some small, were staged. The hot weather was favorable for Doc Love’s pitching arm, and he|graded -hurled a nice 5 to 4 victory for the Bismarck baseball team over the Jamestown Independents. Bismarck won the game in the most thrilling) ninth inning in Bismarck baseball, scoring three runs after two men were out in the last half of the frame.
