E. Mc- Millin took off from Valbuena flying field at 6:47 o'clock this morning (1:47 a. m., E. 8. T.) on a non-stop flight from Mexico City to Washing- ton. The two airmen hoped to reach Bolling field, Washington, carly Sunday morning. The distance was estimated at 2,300 miles. Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh is now the only man who has flown without a stop between the two capitals. Their flight represented an attempt to do what Captain Emilio Carranza failed in last summer, he having been forced down in North Carolina just short of Washington. Their plane, a Stinson monoplane, is named for Captain Carranza. In the event of success in their venture it was believed the two aviators would take off shortly at Mount Holly, N. J., where Capt. Car- ranza crashed and was killed on his attempted return and try to make a non-stop return flight to Mexico City. Pacheco is a wealthy young Mexi- can air enthusiast. McMillin, the pilot, has been flying for 15 years, of which six were spent in the United States army. He was in the air mail service for four months and has done both army and navy test work. Pacheco carried a letter to Presi- dent-elect Hoover from Marshall H. Martman, Mexico City, president of the International Federation of Aero- nautics. The letter read: “Dear Mr. President: “Activities in Pan-American aero- nautics have followed your recom- mendation to the American public and Secretary of State Kellogg.

Linton, Barneck Jewelers, Bismarck Typical American Beauty Is Blonde, Artist Says Erno Bakes .'. . . chose Pearl Eaton from two thousand blondes New York, March 2.—(NEA)—Is there a certain type of beauty that is typically Arherican? Erno Bakos, famed Hungarian artist, believes there is. Not only that, but after a search through the American melting pot’s wide assort- ment of pulchritude, he has selected the_girl whom -he considers the na- tion's most beautiful. “Geographically,” said Bakos, “the United States is a northern country. So I decided immediately that the girl I was seeking would be a blonde. Beauty alone’ would not be enough; there must be spirit behind the outer form, and nothing.is more expressive of the American spirit of progress i Quality Mustachios 1 | Gilby Club’s Object J v Gilby, N.

Hyde of Missouri to be secretary of agriculture, President-elect Hoover has assured the continued direction of the nation’s agriculture affairs by & farmer-statesman to direct the na- tion’s agricultural affairs. Just as the retiring agriculture chief, William M. Jardine of Kansas, had first hand knowledge of the farmer's needs when he assumed the Post, the incoming secretary of the department is familiar with the problems of the industry. He owns and operates three farms in Grundy county, Missouri. Like Mr. Jardine, too, Mr. Hyde is a business man and administrator. Mr. Hyde always has been inter- ested in the welfare of the farm. Ad- dressing the Missouri legislature in 1923, he said: “In its fundamental character, and in the character of the peo- ple engaged in it agriculture is the most intensely American indus- try. The greatest problem in the de- velopment of Missouri today is the development of agriculture and the rural population. Two things are primarily necessafy for agriculture, greater profits and better schools. Born In Missouri Mr. Hyde is 51 years old. He was born in Princeton, a little town in Mercer county, Missouri. His father, Judge Ira B. Hyde, formerly was rep- resentative in congress from the sec- ond Missouri district, who later es- tablished a record of long and effi- eient service on the circuit bench. The former chief executive's first venture in politics was in 1912, short- ly after he moved to Trenton, Mo., when the ive party nominated him for the state attorney general- ship. He was defeated. After a whirlwind campaign in 1920 he received the Republican nomina- tion for governor and was elected by @ large plurality. He was the second Republican to hold the office since the civil war. . Refuses Senate Offer Since retiring from public office, Mr. Hyde has spent most of his time in Kansas City directing the affairs of the Sentinel Life Insurance com- pany of which he is president. He refused to become a candidate for the senatorial nomination last year and also declined to allow his name to be put forward for the vice presi- dency. After he attained prominence in Politics, Mr. Hyde's Republican sup- Porters regarded him as an equal to “Jim” Reed on the stump. And his campaign clashes with the Missouri Senator Long will be remembered in this state. His homely expressions always won his audiences. His was a rare vien of humor blended with bit- ing sarcasm. The incoming cabinet member is an active worker in his church, the Methodist Episcopal, and an ardent in. SHAFER SPEAKS AT IVA BANQUET HERE Governor George F.

PROSPECTS OF FIGHT FOR OLEOMARGARINE LICENSING GROW DIM Cain Offers Amendment to Pro- tect Individual Grocers Against Chain Stores Prospects of a fight on the bill to tax the sale of oleomargarine in North: Dakota grew dimmer in the senate yesterday. When the bill came up for final ac- tion Senator J. P. Cain of Stark coun- ty offered a long amendment which would completely change the nature of the tax on the butter substitute. Instead of licensing the dealers by collecting $100 from wholesalers and $25 from retailers, Cain suggested a tax of ‘five cents @ pound. He contended that the bill, in its present form, would favor chain store companies in comparison with: indi vidual grocers.’ His idea was that chain store could take out one li- cense for all establishments which they operNe in the state, thereby dis- tributing the $25 retailers tax over a wide area, whereas indivirdual gro- cery owners would have to pay the license tax from the profits of one store. Senators who strongly favored the bill yesterday agreed with him and it was indicated that there would be lit- tle opposition to the amendment when it comes to a vote today. They even went so far as to say that spon- sors of the bill in the house would be glad to have the change made. Action on the amendment was de- fesred until it could be printed in the senate journal, giving the solons an opportunity to examine it minutely before voting on it. Not a word of debate marked de- feat of three bills supported by a group of fraternal insurance societies which bad caused sharp debate in the committee. A majority of the committee favored postponement and the majority report on all three bills was adopted, although advocates of the bills insisted on a roll call vote on each one. On the closest vote the group opposing the bills had 26 votes to 20 favoring it.
