An alr mail pilot would mnot jump unless It was impossible to bring his =hip down In some fashion, hence Col. Henderson belleves the controls locked. Each pllot carries two parachute flares, which, after slowly settling to earth at the end of a tiny-‘chute, light up an area for more than a square mile. Even it Pflot Gilbert's motor had failed, it is belleved he had sufficient al- titude in which to come down in that particular flut territory with the aid of a flare. Since the regular night fiying was inaugurated there have been 47 forced landings at night, 43 of which have been on emergency flelds pro- vided along the line of flight and | three in other places, but there has not been a “washout” or complete demolition of the plane. Until re- sently “slim” Lewis, one of the crack | pilots, was the only one who hadn't | been forced to put down at night, but |a short time later he had to come to | earth after dark near Kansas City. In some instances the pilots have learned the tricks of fog in their re- spective territories.

Correspondence of The Star and the Chicago Datly News SAO PAULO, Brazil, November 20.— A novel use of passenger cars was devised by the rebels when they re- tired from Sao Paulo. Arriving at the River Parana, the rebels were confronted with the problem of pro- viding boats for transporting them- sclves to the south. They had de- clded to retreat to the State of Parana and hide along the Paraguay border. If any strong force of loyal Brazillan troops should eventually reach them there, the rebels could continue their retreat across the river and be safe on foreign soil. No large boats of sny description were on the Parana where the Soroco- bana Rallroad crossed the river. The rebels proved to be practical, and converted the roofs of passenger coaches into barges. This was done by sawing off the roofs, the cutting being doné even with the tops of the windows on each car. The venti- lators and other openings were then sealed up, the improvised boats being carried to the banks, turned bottom sldo up on the water, loaded with { men, provisions and camp cquipment, | and started down the river. Equipment Saved. This strange car-roof flotilia fur- | nished the rebels the means of trav- eling to safe quarters. No worth while or even passable roads are in the State of Parana. The rebels| could have traveled only by discard- ing their equipment. = While they| rode safely away in the make- shift barges, the roofless cars cannot be used, adding seriously to the diffi- culties of the Sorocobana in provid- Ing equipment for its passcnger service.

Inthe competition for the order f. the 50 locomotives, the ¢ ufacturers put thei prices that the American builders were left | far behind.

(Copyrignt, 1 by Chicago Daily News Co.) | FEAR OF SOVIET FLEET STIRS BLACK SEA PORTS Rumania and Turkey Apprehensive | at Prospect of France Yield- ing Vessels to Russia. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. SOFIA, December ‘While n:lifldi commissions reside in Constantinople for the purpose of determining the future status of the Dardanelles, both the Turkish and Rumanian naval staffs are becoming disturbed at the prospect of the apparition of a Rus- slan Black Sea fleet. Since the war Russia has possessed no tmportant naval forces. The re- cent decision of the French govern- ment to hand over the Soviet fleet which Gen. Wrangel formerly pos- se d opens up an entirel new vista. This fleet, which ts l¥ing at Bizerta, is out of date compared with odern American warships, but is in- comparably superior Loth in size and ! speed to any other eastern Furopean | navy. Ite battleships and destrovers would completely dominate the Black | coa, and Rumanian and Bulgarian ports, as well as Constantinople, would be insecure in event relations with Russia became strained. In Turkey it is believed Great Bri- tain pointed out to France the diffi- culties and danger which a return of the fleet to the Soviets would create. The transfer, therefore, may be de- layed, but it seems doubtful that the plan ultimately can be prevented. (Oopyright, 1924, by Chicago Daily News Co.) Negroes Favor Philadelphia.

FRENCH FACE HARD FIGHT ON RELIGION Cardinals Serve Notice Church Will Put Up Battle Against Opposition. Correspondence of the Associated Press, PARIS, December 5.—The relations between church and state in France are one of the most important prob- lems of internal policy which the gov- ernment of M. Herriot will be called upon to face during the present ses- slon of the Chamber of Deputies. The Radical-Soclalist party fn its elec- toral campaign culminating in the victory at the polls May 11 made the mplete separation of church and state one of its main planks. None of ‘the proposed governmental measures, the suppression of the em- bassy at th# Vatican—the revision and probable abolition of the concordat in Alsace-Lorraine, and the strict appli- cation of the law of 1906—has yet been applied, but the suppression of the credits for the Vatican emba: is certain to give rise to heated de bates when the subject comes up for discusslon.
