WINDS FAN FLAMES IN WESTERN FOREST Fire in Washington Rages on 25-Mile Front; Montana Blazes Out of Control «Spokane, Wash., Aug. 12.—(?)—High winds today were changing several smoldering northwest fires into raging conflagrations to further harass fa- tigued armies of fighters who have ‘been combating them for the past two ‘weeks. The most destructive fire in the region was in the Barnaby creek country on the Colville Indian res- ervation of eastern Washington. Un- der the impetus of a high easterly * wind it was raging uncontrolled on a 25-mile front. In the Kaniksu national forest in northern Idaho winds fanned @ dozen small fires into activity. About 2,000 men were battling fires * in the Chelan and Wenatchee na- tional forests of Washington. Other blazes not yet under control included one on the west fork of the ‘Yaak river in the Kootenai forest in Montana, two in the Flathead dis- trict, one on Sullivan creck, and one bn Spruce Creek.

Herbert Man Jailed for THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. MONDAY, AUGUST 12, 1929 | Australian Turns Toward England-America Hop | Capt. Charles Kingsford-Smith (center) and Capt. Charles T. P. Ulm (lower right) are deliberating whether to fly to the United States by way The Southern London, Aug. 12—(4)—Capt. Charles Kingsford Smith has ambitions. Not satisfied with the fame gained in his 7,800-mile transpacific flight from Oakland, Calif., to Sydney, Aus- tralia, a year ago, and more recently in his 12,000-mile journey from Aus- tralia to England, the Australian air- man is making preparations for a pro- Jected transatlantic flight from Eng- land to the United States. He did not wait to complete his Australia-to-England venture to an- nounce his proposed westward trans- atlantic flight, but told newspaper men in Rome, where he stopped en route from Sydney to London, that he had decided upon the England-to- America journey. Immediately following his arrival in London mechanics were called to overhaul the motors of the historic Southern Cross, while Captain Kings- ford Smith and Capt. Charles T. P. Ulm, his navigator, began their search Paris, Aug. 10.—()—Paris, eventual haven of political refugees fleeing from the turmoil of revolutions that failed, has become the home of Catherine Brechko-Brechkovskia. She is “the grandmother of the Russian revolution,” meaning that revolution which overthrew Nicholas II and es- tablished the ill-fated Kerensky regime in the land of the czars. Besides being an uncompromising foe of czarism, she is equally opposed to bolshevism. She is certain that the present Union of Soviet Socialist Republics will fail, and that within @ few years. been passed as a prisoner.. Under the Czar she served 14 years at hard labor, followed by 13 more of mere exile in Siberia. She had 12 years of hiding in old Russia and six years of existence under Czarist police su- pervision, during which she managed to sandwich in two trips to the Uni- ted States. The “‘Babouchka,” as she is fondly called by Russians of her political faith, is sanguine that the Bolshevik regime will collapse within a few years and that she, despite her years, will live to see it. She hopes to make @ solemn reentrance into the old Rus- sian capital when that city shall have lost its sobriquet of Leningrad, and again become Petrograd. “The gtandmother of the revolu- tion” has already enjoyed one tri- umphant return of that sort. That Fully one-third of her 86 years have | she for the most feasible route for their newest adventure. ‘Two routes are under consideration. ‘The most likely—the southern route— calls for a takeoff from the mainland from Dakar, Senegal, after a flight from England with a stop in Spain. This would call for an ocean hop to South America and the northward journey to the United States by easy stages. While the three-motored Southern Cross is being overhauled mechanics will determine whether the mono- Plane’s weight may be lessened to en- able it to take off with sufficient fuel for at least 45 hours’ flying. If this can be accomplished the Australian flyer may decide upon a non-stop flight from Croydon to New York. Captain Kingsford Smith and Cap- tain Ulm first demonstrated their ca- | Pabilities as long-distance flyers in | 1928 when they blazed the first air | trail across the Pacific in the South- j ern Cross. Paris Shelters Aged Woman Foe of Czars After 14 Years in Siberia was in 1917 and it lasted eight months. But when the Bolsheviks en- tered, the “Babouchka” went out. Living in a peaceful “pension” in the fashionable Passy quarter, the old lady, dressed in black, except for ja white shawl about her shoul- ders, enjoys talking about her trips to the United States. “I went to America for the first time in 1904,” she said. “I had just completed a 14-year sentence at hard labor in Siberia and I received a very cordial welcome in the United States.” Asked if, coming after Siberia, any country would not have been heaven, said: “Yes, but the Americans were really very nice to me. Effectively the Americans are real democrats but I found that they were very badly in- formed about Russian affairs.” In the same breath “Babouchka” said that she was introduced into American political circles by Emma Goldman, but evidently without any intention of establishing a co-rela- tion between that and America’s ignorance of things Russian. She feels that she owes much gratitude to America because “it was owing to the pressure of public opin- ion from the United States, that I was halted on the road to my third exile in Siberia and released at Irkutsk in 1915.” That the Soviet jail is the most abominable thing on earth and that Dante might have picked up there of Spain, Senegal and South America, or whether to try a northern route.

They are bound to succumb,” she concluded.

Those manifestations, it says, are accompanied by evidences of in- creased production and consumption | Of illicit liquor, its charts and tables | of growing intemperance being based on figures “accepted by both wet and dry partisans as valid.” The alcoholic death rate is de- | scribed as “almost up to the pre- war level,” having shown “a steady rise” since 1920 after having declined sharply prior to and during the first year of prohibition. Statistics of the Metropolitan Life Insurance company covering 18,000,- 000 policyholders, it says, “do not bear out” the contention that “drink- ing has been confined entirely to the wealthy, while among the working Population of the country drinking has practically disappeared.” On the contrary, it holds, “the rate from alcoholism among the industrial pop- ulation parallels the alcoholic death rate for the entire country.” Placing that rate at 6 per 100,000 of population in 1920, the pamphlet set forth that it “reached its peak of 3.7 in 1926,” followed by a slight de- cline in 1927 and 1928. In the first three months of 1929, however, a rate of 3.8 is presented, as compared with 3.2 for the corresponding period of 928, Statistics of New York and Massa- chusetts, “which go back far enough to be significant,” are employed to present the picture of increased al- coholic insanity. Commitments for this disease reached a peak of 4.8 per 100,000 of population in New York in 1927, the pamphlet says, after a “steady downward trend from 1910 to 1920.” WOOLGROWERS MAY FORM ASSOCIATION Representatives Will Be Called to Meet With Federal Farm Board Washington, Aug. 12—(AP)—Rep- resentatives of all the wool growing associations will be invited to meet the Federal Farm board in Chicago in October to discuss the creation either of an advisory council for wool or @ cooperative marketing organiza- tion for that product such as has been set up for ‘sheat. Officials of the National Wool Marketing council and some other wool marketing organizatinos have had several conferences with the board during which they asked for Diver Makes 200 Trips to Sunken Ship, But Still It Sticks to the Ocean Bottom’ The photo above shows the upper | works of the sunken steamer Manuela | Pla protruding above the water in Mobile harbor. At the right is Diver Van Morgan, who has made 200 trips to the submerged vessel. ** * Mobile, Ala. Aug. 12.—(NEA)— His career of more than a quarter | of a century as a submarine diver | has dealt out many rare experiences | for Van Morgan, nearly all of them, beyond the range of the landlubber's | life and some of them too hazardous | to_be comfortable. Yet in all his exneriences, in which | he has explored beneath the sur- face of the water in many climes, he has never encountered a job to} equal his pace-setting record in the} raising operations of the sunken | Spanish steamship Manuela Pla. | This lumber laden freighter sank | close beside its wharf in Mobile harbor three years ago last Jan- uary. In the repeated attempts to raise the vessel, Morgan has made more than two hundred diving trips in surveys, inspections, examina- tions, cargo-unloading and other underwater work on the submerged vessel. Since October, 1927, when he was first employed on the job, Morgan has put in approximately 150 diving days, going down twice or more many di The steamer been lifted eight or ten feet recently by hydraulic pressure by the use of jacks and cables after massive steel girders! were extended across the bow and stern from the wharf to clusters of piling driven on the outer edge of | the vessel. Progress was halted when it became necessary to fasten the rear cable, which lost its grip when the rudder apparatus to which it was attached broke away. Previously two wrecking crews hed tried unsuccessfully to dislodge the sunken vessel from the watery berth it has occupied for more than three years, Morgan started out as a diver in 1900 and his occupation has carried his on under-water explorations in salvaging and other work in many parts of the world, but no other sunken ship has ever summoned him into his bulky waterproof outfit on anything like the number of times this one has. His work as a diver has placed him close to injury or death on sev- the immediate formation of a com- modity advisory council. Officials of the farm board said it was apparent that among the major problems confronting the wool asso- ciations is a need for a coordination of their selling efforts. The Chicago meeting has been decided upon to discuss these phases of the industry. It is expected by board officials that definite plans will be developed for @ national cooperative wool sales agency which would include in its membership all of the various types of wool cooperatives now engaged in handling the product. It was considered likely by some board officials that an advisory coun- cil would be created for wool as well as the inauguration of a wool market- ing organization. Mamer Pilot Fails To Appear as Flying Field Waits With Gas Expectation of the arrival here of a pilot of Nick Mamer’s Spokane fly: ing staff, Sunday, occupied the al tention of the local flying field col- ony, but no flyer had showed up when darkness closed over the field. The expectation was aroused by a telegram from Mamer, saying. “My pilot on flight from Marysville, Miche igan, to Spokane may stop for fuel. Rush on way immediately. Ten thousand await his arrival.” Sabotage Is Common On Eastern Railway London, Aug. 12—(AP)—A Har- bin, Manchuria, dispatch to the Lon- don Daily Mail today said sabotage and arson had become: so serious on the Chinese Eastern railway and near it that police and fire brigades could not cope with the situation, Property worth more than £100,000 (about $500,000) was burned Satur- undersigned requests sealed check ‘of 35000) for ‘supplying ti public schools of the City: of Bi marck, N.
