WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1930 SLOPES PREPARIN HOT WELCOMES FOR UNINVITED ROBBERS): Peace Officers of Area and Bankers Consider Plans at Two Meetings Dickinson, N. D., Sept. 3.—The Missouri Slope area of North Dakota does not invite bank bandits to visit its many thriving towns but police of- ficers, sheriffs, and bankers think they are ready to give them a warm welcome, should any come uninvited. Two meetings were held here to make plans for such a welcome as visiting bank bandits will not soon forget even should they survive it. One of these was of the peace offi- cers, sheriffs, police officers, states attorneys, judges and all their depu- ties that could attend from over the Slope area. The other was of the bankers. Assistant Attorney General Charles Simon and Adjutant Gener- al Angus Fraser addressed the meet- ing of the peace officers and told what is being done in other parts of the state, Mr. Fraser giving some good advice on matters of arming and alarms. Peace officers from each locality represented pledged to organize their communities along the plans approv- ed to here which provide for little re- sistance within the bank, excepting from those especially placed there |corn for that purpose, but a plenty from the organization once a robbery has been attempted.

They said it could have been made by striking a bird or some other object in the air. It was the understanding of the associates of the flicrs that Coste and Bellonte had 72 hours after their landing here at 6:12:30 p. m. (E.S.T.) last night in which to complete their the | night to Dallas under the terms of their contract with Easterwood which reposes with the Aero club in Paris. Terms Uncertain Another construction, however, was that the flight must be completed within 72 hours after the Question ed departure from LeBourget Under the former construction the ‘French pair would have until 6:12 p. m. (ES.T.) Friday to reach the Texas city; under the latter, they would have to be-in Dallas by 4:54 a. m. (E8.T.)

(E.8.T.) last Monday pulled their little scarlet sesqui- labelled “Question Mark” off the historic turf of Le Bour- get, the field n Paris where Lindi first set his . wheels to the ground, and 37 hours later they ‘waggled its wings in greeting over the trans-Atlantic runway of Roosevelt field, whence America’s lone eagle took off on the road to France. ‘Then, they flew nine miles farther and set their wheels to earth at Cur- field, Valley Stream, at 6:12:30 (B8.T.) last night behind them 4,100 miles of ocean and fog and storms. Master airman to the last, Coste flashed twice around the field in the deepening dusk, then banked sharply, and slid into a three point landing. On to Texas Today At the moment it seemed an end to an epic adventure, but later it was announced they would take off in their plane tomorrow morning for Dallas, Texas, and the $25,000 pot of gold that has waited for three years at the end of the great circle rainbow connecting the Texas City and the capital of France. The prize ig that offered by Col. William Easterwood for the first Paris-Dallas flight, with a stop permitted at New York City. A crowd estimated as high as 10,000 bersons, many of whom had waited for hours at the field, was grouped along the guarding fences as the clouds which had erupted hail and rain but two hours before cleared away and the half dise of the moon showed its faint outline in the sky. As the “Question Mark” came out of the east and darted to eartn they surged against the. guard ropes and ‘the fences, testing the strength and the temper of hundreds of police. “Viva Cost,” many shouted tn the best Long Island French, “Hooray for Costay,” they yelled. Sensing the danger in the whirling propeller of his ship and fearing any moment the wall of blue might break and let through a flood of humans, Coste stopped his engine while. still a hundred yeards out in the fieid and he and Bellonte climbed wearily from the plane. Their faces were burned from the sun and wind and lines of fatigue were etched in the red skin. They fumbled clumsily for the rungs of the ladder with their feet. Their legs numbed by the day and a half in the cramped cockpits pf the little plane, they stumbled toward the hangar. But willing hands helped them along and they rode the last few feet astride the backs of stalwart me- chanics, happy to carry so famed a burden. Lindbergh Greets Them Their fatigue was forgotten when they reached the hangar and found there to greet them a tall, rather stooped young man, white teeth flashing in a face burned almost as red as their own—the man whose Path they retraced. “It was a great flight, captain,” said Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, and although Coste probably did not hear or understand the words he could not mistake the meaning and his face lighted with a happy smile as he grasped the hand of America’s most famous flier. Whisked through the formalities of .& welcome from officials of their own land, New York City. and civic organ- izations, and having broadcast their thanks and thoughts to the listening radio audiences of two continents, the fliers were borne swiftly to the city behind an escort of motorcycle police and put to bed in their suite at a Park avenue hotel. ‘There, clad: in orange striped pa- jamas, Coste greeted reporters a tew moments later, first cautioning them to be quiet so as nof to awaken his companion, already blissfully sleep- ing in the adjoining twin bed. ‘Their trip? Oh, it was just a flight. Yes, the weather was bad in spots but they had tailwinds part of the way, Was he glad to be here? “Ah, oul, oul.” “Lindbergh was there at the field,” he said, smiling broadly, “anit noth- ing gave me greater pleasure than to see him and talk to him.” Neither America’s flying Colonel nor Coste would talk in terms of com- parison of their flights, although one ler exactly traced that of the Mourn for Nungesser ‘There was heartache as well as joy for Coste last night, for his boyish idol and war-time companion laid down his life in attempting the feat he carried through so successfully. Big Kernels in Small Shells IN ADDITION to the advertisements of the big department stores, of the grocery and hardware stores, of the millinery, clothing and shoe stores, there is another kind of advertising that is being read more and more by readers ‘of this newspaper. That kind of advertising is the Classified Columns. A man or woman wants a job. They read the “Help Wanted” columns and probably insert an advertisement of their own under “Positions Wanted.” Employer and job seeker sdon get together to the benefit of both. A man may want an automobile—possibly he cannot afford a new car, so he looks in the “Used Car” cdlumns and finds just the car at the price he can afford to pay. Some one has lost a pocketbook, valuable papers or even a pet dog. The “Lost and Found” columns soon bring loser and _ finder together. The Classified Columns are so arranged that any one can readily find , what he seeks quickly—business news, machinery and tools, household goods, horses, dogs, cats, canaries, etc. They enable you to locate what you are looking for in short order. So in reading advertising do not overlook the classified columns—the individual advertisements do not take up much room, but like the meaty nut they may contain a big kernel in a small shell—just for you.
