TUESDAY, JANUARY 16, 1929 MERCURY SLUMPS IN| (Asizona Completes the World’s _ Highest Highway Bridge NIGHT, RISING DURING FORENOON AS USUAL Cold Weather- Takes Toll of More Than Six; Cold Fore- cast to Continue tures in Bismarck and North Dakota, after 10 and 20 blow during most of the night, started their customary rise again this morning and it was only two degrees below zero in Bismarck at noon. Cold in the east and midwest took more than half a dozen lives directly or indirectly in the last 24 hours. Temperature in Bismarck at 7 a. m. today was 10 degress below. Lowest here during the night wrt below. Fargo 12 below; Devils Lake 10 below; Jamestown zero; Mandan 14 below; Minot 14 be- low; and Williston 14 below. Roads Fair to Good Roads throughout the state are re- ported fair to good. Bismarck and North Dakota will be cloudy tonight with snow and continued cold. It will continue partly cloudy and colder in the state, especially in the south and east por- tions. Zero weather, wearing a shawl of snow, continued her unwelcome visit to middle America today, with little likelihood of her leaving for another day at least. Snow covered most of the midwest, following yesterday's heavy fall, masking ice pavements in the cities and blocking railroads and highways in the open country. There were + half a dozen deaths attributable to the cold, and innum- crable accidents. One of those crit- ically injured in automobile crashes in Chicago was Lou Kosloff, one of the city’s the.tre orchestra leaders and entertainers. His skull was frac- tured. Temperatures fought their way from nine below zero Sunday night to a high of nine above last night, then began a gradual drop in keeping with the prediction of “slightly cold- er” today. Slow rising temperatures are promised for Wednesday through most of the midwest. The six inch snowfall in Chicago offered a serious traffic problem. Tons of snow were removed from the downtown streets during the day and last night. Engineer, Is Killed ~ »A-Chicago and ‘Northwestern rail- road engineer was killed by a snow plow at Minnesota Junction, Wis., after a desperate struggle in which he clung to the plow for more than seven miles before finally dropping ex- hausted, in its whirling path. Two parties of‘fishermen, missing several days cn lakes Superior “@nd Michigan respectively, have been ziven up for lost after search by coast guards. Three men were miss- ing on Lake Michigan and two on ’ Lake Superior where temperatures far below zero have prevailed for sev- eral days. At Milwaukee the cold became so acute that a scheduled hockey game betwen Marquette university and the Chicago Athletic association had to be postponed. Below freezing weather was report- ed as far south as Arkansas. The north Atlantic states were re- covering from a cold wave which sent the temperature below zero in many dlaces and caused two deaths. There were high winds and snow of blizzard ~ proportions in several districts. One man was found frozen to death in Syracuse, N. ¥., and another died of exposure in New York city. The drop in temperature was gen- eral along the seaboard from Maine to Pennsylvania and extended inland to the lakes and west of the Alle- gheny mountains. The temperature was below zero in many places in Maine, Maksachusetts and Connecticut and upstate New York. A minimum of seven degrees shore zero was recorded in New York city. Atlantic City, N. J., reported the northward flight of wild ducks and geese, hailed as a harbinger of spring. PASADENA TOURNEY “ Pasadena, Cal., Jan, 15—(AP)— Pasadena’s municipal golf course was the last field of action today for the golfing troupe making the rounds of the Pacific coast tourna- ments. The business at hand was a 54 hole tournament, with prizes to- talling $4,000. fr, With but few. exceptions the field was the same as that which com- peted in the Los Angeles $10,000 open, finished yesterday. . The entry list of more than 10 included such figures as ald Smith, of Great Neck, Long.

Here in the Navajo Indian Country of northeastern Arizona, at the north- ern tip of the Painted Desert, and in a setting of amazing grandeur, was the one point in nearly 600 tiles where engineers had decided that the greatest natural travel barrier on the continent could be bridged, That barrier is the Colorado river Proper, born deep in southeastern Utah, at the junction of the Green and the Grand, and flowing thence through Cataract, Glen, Marble and Grand Canyons—the most stu- pendous series of gorges on the|C: globe. Until this year it has been unbridged for vehicles from Green River, Utah, to Topoc, 600 miles below on the western border of Arizona. There have been, and are, only a couple of vehicular ferries, and these uncertain at best, and often dangerous and abandoned.

All through 1928 work on _the bridge has continued. This December the Lee's Ferry Bridge will be an accomplished fact, its 18-foot reinforced concrete roadway, with steel and concrete curbs, sweeping above the brown churn of the Colorado at a height of 465 feet. On June 1st, 1929, Arizona local and state bodies, the National Park Service, the Indian Department and the Santa Fe Railway invite the world to a unique dedication en- campment and celebration at the Marble Canyon site To engineers the Lee's Ferry Bridge is another milestone in the conquest of natural obstacles. To travelers it is the key to connected exploration of the hitherto divided portions of our wonder-filled South- west. The fold fascinations of the Spanish and Pueblo cultures in New Mexico; the Navajo and Hopi Country; the endless attractions of northern Arizona; the Painted Des- ert and the south rim of the Grand the-e will now be di- rectly connected with the north rim of the great Canyon, the Kaibab Forest, and Bryce and Zion Na- tional Park.

The first meeting of the joint committee will be held this month and will be followed by & meeting of the council for he adoption of. a'con- stitution and election of officers. The cooperation of the two com- munities in scouting work. will be of great value in scouting circles, in the opinion of Fulton. Mandan now has one troop which has been trained and léd-under C: tain Wilson, of the Great. Plains Ex- periment Station. The troop has deen inactive for some time, however.

" Cabinet and other major appoint- ments will. form one subject matter at these meetings, but the president- elect scems to have made it fairly clear to his callers who have broach- ed the question that he will not co into the problem of general patron- age until after his return here the latter part of February. The inpression is growing upon those who frequent the Hoover suite et the Mayflower hotel that there will be no announcement of the cabi- net until after Mr. Hoover returns from Florida. Some of those who accompanied Mr. Hoover during his campaign on his Latin American tour would be surprised if he made known definite- family much in advance of ‘the day of his inauguration. cognition of the south in the makeup of the cabinet is expected. The name of C. Bascom Slemp, of Virginia, national committeman, former member of congress and former secretary to. President Cool- idge, has been put fo?ward from sev- eral directions. Counting only the suggestions that have been made to him, the presi- dent-elect has a fair sized army from which to pick his ten official ad- visers and Bsucs of governmental de- partments. But it isn’t likely that he will restrict the field to those who come recommended by the politicians and others. In the past he has done much of hi: oosing of advisers on his oWn initiative and from among his own friends and there is no pres- ent reason to assume that he will change what has come to be a policy. 8 Mexican Insurgents Are Killed in Attack Mexico City, in. 15.—(P)—El Universal said today that eight in- surgents. had been killed in attempt- ing to ambush federal forces near Poncitlan, state of Jalisco, Twenty-three insurgents surrend- ered to the government at Pochutla, state of Oaxaca.

GREATEST ARMADA SAILS FOR PANAMA More Than 200 Planes, 80 Sur- face and Submarine Craft Ready for Maneuvers San Diego, Cal., Jan. 15—(AP)—!g Carrying the greatest unit of navy fighting planes ever assembled, ships of the United States battle fleet were ready to’ sail today from San Diego and San Pedro for winter maneuvers in the vicinity of Panama. More than 200 planes were with the fleet, which in itself numbers ap- proximately 80 surface and subma ine craft. The giant aircraft ca! riers Saratoga and Lexington ca ried approximately 170 of the planes, the rest being aboard battleshi cane je- ships, an equal number of submar- ines and their tenders, and about 40 idestroyers, together with tugs and {other ‘auxiliaries, made up the ar- ‘mada.
