PUT ORE STRESS UPON NEHT FLYNG Kelly and MacReady Flight Shows Possibility of Aviation in Dark. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 2—Night flying by aviators has been brought squarely before the public by the great non- stop flight across the continent by Lieuts. MacReady and Kelly and, through this demonstration of its feasibility, general night flying and the delivery of mail during the night may become an accomplished fact be- fore the end of the summer, accord- ing to I. J. O'Malley of Chicago. in a recent address before the Chicago Aviation Club. A great part of the plans for this epoch-making achievement in avia- tion now rests with the public util- ity lighting companies or the cities themselves,” said Mr. O'Malley. Sights Necessary. “Gulde or beacon lights are neces- sary for night flying, particularly When stops are to be made for de- 1ivery of mail or passengers. A great start has been made In this respect, as well as in the construction of land- Ing fields. and probably more work will be done in this direction during the coming summer. “The United States aerial mail has developed a plan for flying night mail_which seems thoroughly prac- ticable, once the various cities over which the night mail passes agree to maintain the necessary lighting sys- tem and emergency landing flelds Future of Flying. “It is a fact that the whole future success of the aerial mail hinges upon the success of night flying, since the time that is lost by laying over nights would eliminate the saving in time obtained through day fiylng. “The night flyer is reduced to flying by compass, and no compass has- yet been evoled that is sufficiently Te- liable to be depended upon exculsive- iy. Then the question of forced landings is Involved. In event of motor failure the flyer is obliged to make & landing. This is sometimes dangerous, al- though not as much as one might think, since a plane, properly equip- ped with search lights operated from battery. can be guided intelligently when near the ground. although be- ing without power it cannot rise again if the ground is unsuitable for landing. In general, night flying depends |Ir0n beacon lights at rious points along the route by which the flyer may know his location; emergency landing fields streaming searchlights indicated by upward planes equip- ped with searchlights for landing and the cultivation of a night “fiying sense.” e DECLINING BIRTH RATE. France Not Alone in Slowing TUp Increase of Population. ‘Willis F. Johnson, fw North American Review. We shall scarcely be able much longer to reproach France for her low birth rate, seeing how markedly our own is declining. According to the census bureau, in the twenty-nine states and the federal district, com- prising the registration area of the country and including the great ma- Jority of our population, the birth rate fe!l from 25 to the thousand in the first nine months of 1921 to only 228 to the thousand in the same part of 1922. Now that was a very serfous decline. and if continued for a few years it would bring us down to the unfortunate level of France. It means that the Increase in popula- tion in 1922 was 322,932 less than it would have been had the rate of the preceding vear been maintained. As no special cause, such as war or epidemic pestilence, can be as- signed to that decrease, we must as- sume it to have been the effect of general and, we must fear, continuing processes. Sociologlsts and physiolog- ists can_ scarcely render a greater service than to determine what those causative processes are. They a: scarcely economic and agrarian, as 80 largely in France; and the notion that they are involved in the higher education of women repudiated. The two possible causes which just now rise most to consid- eration are the very general employ- ment of girls, beginning at a tender age, in business and industries, and the 'alarmingly increasing prevalence of divorce, 450 LICENSED TO WED WITHIN THREE HOURS NEW YORK, June 2.—Dan Cupld played havoc with June brides in the City Hall marriage license bureau today, excelling all past performances for a ‘three-hour perfod of activity.

Homer Will Sing Old Lyri¢ at Start of Better Homes Week. MISS LIDA HAFFORD, Director general federation head- quarters. Better homes in America week will be ushered in tomorrow afternoon at 2:16 o'clock, when President Harding formally opens “Home Sweet Home," the national demonstration house f the movement, in Sherman square, south of the Treasury. The campalgn for better homes is sponsored by the General Federation of Women's Clubs. Miss Lida Hafford of this city, di- rector of the General Federation of ‘Women's Clubs headquarters, will be the mistress of ceremonies and will turn the key of the house over to Secretary of Commerce Hoover, chair- man_of the advisory council of bet- ter homes in America. He in turn will give it to President Harding, in order that the house may be formally opened and dedicated to its mission of raising the standard of home and home life in the United States. Besides President Harding. speakers will include Lieut. Col. C. the 0. Sherrill, officer in charge of public buildings and grounds and military alde to the executive; secretary Hoover, Mrs. William Brown Maloney, founder of better homes in America, and secretary of the advisory coun- cil: Miss Hafford and Donn Barber, architect of the house. James C. Mc- Candless of Honolulu, imperial po- tentate, A. A. O. N. M. S, will be a guest of honor. Mme. Louise Homer is scheduled to sing the famous “Home, Sweet Home" song to the ac- companiment of - the United States | Marine Band. At the conclusion of the ceremonies President and Mrs. Harding, accompanied by the official party, will inspect the house. The quaint structure was designed by Mr. Barber along the general lines of John Howard Payne's boyhood home at Easthampton, Long Island, the cottage that inepired the writing of the famous lyri¢. Ground was broken for the house less than a month ago. W1l Show Relics. The furnishings follow the style of the perfod in which Mr. Payne lived A number of gifts to it have been made, Including a facsimilie of the original invitation to the ceremonies connected with the interment of John Howard Payne at Oak Hill cemetery. Georgetown, forty years ago, June This donation was made by Miss Alice Douglass Goddard and Fred- erick J. Goddard of Georgetown, who have the original still in their pos- session. Another relic it a photo- graph of the composer, loaned Almas Temple by Thomas B. Walker, and to be hung in the home during the week Speaking of the salient features of the project and what It stands for, Miss Hafford said: “Aroused by the shortage of 800.000 homes in this country today, the Gen- eral Federation of Women's Clubs eagerly grasped the opportunity of- fered by the better homes in America movement to co-operate in this edu- cational movement. The federation has always stood for the home. It is the keystone of the organization and all the departmental work is cen- tered about it. “This houBe, built either accord- ing to Washington or New York prices, will not cost completed morv than $12,000, according to W. F. Lockhardt, construction agent on the job. This includes the cost of ex- cavating for a cellar and a heating plant. The house is located on this site that it might be more accessible to the Shriners as a. bureau of in- formation. “At the close of the two-week demonstration it will be removed to a permanent site, whers it will be- come, through the years, a national domonstration centér in home mak- ing. This movement for better homes in America has scored a phe- nomenal success and the reason for this is that its purpose was right and because the people had faith in the spirit back of it. Its influence will be a potent force for good, not only now, but in the years to come.” TWO DEAD IN HOME; ONE ENDS OWN LIFE Double Tragedy in Denver Involv- ing New York Lawyer Be- lieved Due to Insanity, DENVER, June 2.—What police be. lieve to be a murder and suiclde wa: revealed today when the bodies of Frederick G.

Didr’t Stop Until He Arrived at Hawaii Shore. lDriller of Wells Now Owner of Sugar Fields. Imperial Potentate James Sutton McCandless, & sugar king of Hono- lulu, affectionately dubbed by thou- sands of his friends the Pacifie coast as “Sunny Jim,” has the dis- tinction of being the first big chief of the Mystic Shrine who resides off the mainland of the United States. Although born in Pennsylvania, the career of “Sunny Jim” has been one successful demonstration after an- other of the virtue in Horace Greely's advice, “Go west, young man.” The first jump west was shortly after he was born In Indiana county, Pa., when the family moved to the oil fields of West Virginia at the close of the civil war, and he kept on going west untll he landed in that fair paradise of the Pacific, Hawaii, where, through drilling artesian wells and later through his brilliant ability in connection with the sugar interests, he has become a multi- millionaire—and imperial potentate of the great Mystic Shrine. ‘Went to Leadville. In the early days, from West Vir- ginia, James McCandiess, then a young man, in 1879 went to L« ville, Col.,, during the mining excitement and stayed there until 1880, when he went to San Francisco. In December of that same year he sailed for the Hawalian Islands, where he has since made his home. His two brothers, Jobhn A, and Lincoln L., followed later, and the well known firm of McCandless Broth- ers was formed. They drilled all the artesian wells which furnished water for the sugar cane fields of the Island of Ouhu and the other islands of the group. Great stretches of. useless barren wastes were turned into green flelds. James S.
