As head of the Travel Bu- reau, Thompson is an authority on National parks and scenic America and during the past four years he has directed the compilatjon of more than a million individually planned motor vacation trips. : Wells is well known to many here because of his radio travel broadcasts of the last several years, and because he has studied the globe from the air, on the surface, beneath the sea, and in the caverns under the ground—in the Arctic, desert and jungle—and tells of these expeditions in an interesting fashion. Wells is among the most famous of modern radio entertainers. Each time he returns from an expedi- tion, no matter whether from the Malay Jungle, Lapland, Africa, or even Bermuda, the stories of his ex- beriences create a sensation. His last expedition took him to Panama and Mexico, a trip which he made by autmobile trailer, except for those jaunts by airplane or on foot to explore the remote reaches of the jungle. As the guest of the governor of the Canal zone, Wells was given special facilities to study the jungle of Panama and its strange animals. The United States Navy flew the explorer to the San Blas Archipelago, where he landed and visited the little-known San Blas Indians. In Mexico, Wells climbed the famous volcano Popoca- tepetl, and then traveled to Texas over the new Pan American highway. When Wells returns to the air Sun- day, Sept. 27, in his: new radio series, “Exploring America with Carveth Wells,” he will have many new and interesting stories about travel in the United States which he is gathering on the present trip. Governor Talmadge Charges Intimidation Moultrie, Ga., July 22.—(%)—Gov. Eugene Talmadge charged Wednesday federal agents were attempting to in- timidate supporters of his candidacy for the United States senate through threats of income tax prosecution. “Not only is the collection of the federal income tax unreasonably ex- pensive,” he said in a Democratic campaign address, “but it is fast de- veloping into a racket.” The governor, long an opponent of the New Deal, seeks the seat held by Senator Richard B. Russell, Jr. a Roosevelt supporter. Early Settlers Pick Mrs. Augusta Koehn Jamestown, N.

The government contends the house at 204 Vernon avenue was used as a hideout by members of the kidnap gang. Brown also denied, in respons2 to questions from Peifer’s counsel, that he disclosed information about plans to deliver the ransom. Charles Tierney, now inspector of an apparent leak, after police planned to deliver the money in a car carry- ing an armed officer, led to demands from the kidnapers for a delivery car that would have no place to conceal an extra passenger.
