The Florida hurrieane wreaked £1,000,000 damage at the Navy's air station at Pensacola, official detailed reports received by the Navy Depart- ment show. Out of 380 planes at the station, 47 were destroyed, eight buildings were shattered beyond re- pair, and runways, railway tracks and plers were badly wrecked. The report said the wind reached a velocity of 128 miles an hour and was accompanied by an inundation, the tide belng swept 854 feet above the mean high level. Lieut. Comdr. R, H. Gifford. Civil Engineer Corps, has been ordered to the station to estimate appropria- tions necessary to restore and protect the station. Most of the planes de- stroyed were of an obsolete tvpe. Damage to other afrcraft which can be repaired has not been estimated. While varfous plans for reconstruc- tion work, on a scale that will give | better security against future storms, | have been considered, a review of the | history of the station in this regard | issued by the Navy Department holds out little hope that it can be rendered stormproof. The wind reached a velocity on Sep- tem 20 last greater than that recorded in any previous storms which swept the Pensacola plant. In the storm of September 26, 1906, however, the Pensacola Navy Yard, as it was then known, was submerged by a 9.3 high- water mark and damage amounted to 0.000. In July, 1916, two vears after it be- came the Navy's first air station, storm damage amounted to $420,000, although the water level did not rise over four feet and the wind reached 104 miles. On September 28, 1917, the war year, the wind reached a velocity of 103 miles and the water a depth of six feet, damage amounting to $76,000. DIXIE STATUE UNVEILED.

AMERICA, CONSUL HOLDS Inscription on Rock in Massachu- setts Convinces Group of Visit Prior to Columbus’. By the Associated Press. DIGHTON, Mass., October 11— Dighton Rock, on the shore of Taun- ton River, between Fall River and Taunton, will “be Portuguese territory forever” to A. de Oliveira Aguas, Por- tuguese consul at Providence. He was a member of a group of 150 promi- nent Rhode Island and Massachusetts | Portuguese who made a pilgrimage to the rock vesterday and heard Prof. Edmund B. Delabarre of Brown Uni- versity translate the dim hieroglyphics as “Miguel Coterel, 1511, by the Will of God here the leader of the Indlan: Cortereal was a Portuguese mariner. Consul Aguas and his companions j were convinced that Prof. Delabarre’s explanation of the inscriptions bears out claims of a pre-Columbian discov- |ery of America by a subject of Por- tugal. Some students believed that Norse- men engraved a message on Dighton Rock, and others contend that Indians made the inscriptions. — Rock Moses Struck Still Flows.

Deep in Study of Latin, Suggests Zoo Guest Be Called “Altus Natu™ or “Placidi Captivus.” There are several new suggestions received in The Star’s giraffe-naming contest this morning. One comes from Katherine M. Long, 1634 Seventeenth street. “I have been reading in the news- paper,” she writes, “about the chil- dren who have been giving names for the giraffe. I am very anxious to send mine in, I would name him ‘Dawy’ after Vice President Dawes. Please answer me back and tell me if I have a good chance to win. I do hope I will have time to enter.” Charles Thomas, 14 vears old, 4420 Douglas street northeast, is deep in freshman Latin and a classicist to the core. He writes “I have decided to suggest two names for our giraffe. The first is ‘Altus Natu,’ meaning ‘tall by birt! The second is ‘Placidi Captivu meaning_‘a_calm captive.’ I sug- sted the first, because the giraffe tall when he is born. I think he would be particularly pleased with it. I suggested number two because the giraffe is extremely calm for his size, and he certainly was, hence he is captive.” Cynthia Hathaway. 5016 Moorland lane, Bethesda, Md., suggests that the newcomer be named *“Lord High Neck.” The British treasury recently took ossesslon of $1,640 of Scottish sav-| And here is an altogether new sug- a8 Which P eWReN could fon fsom Oliver Frances Lam “I think that “R-Byrd” is a fine name for the giraffe, first because it is an easy word to say and remember; second, because it stands for Comdr. Richard Byrd, a great hero, whom we all love. And we are going to love the giraffe, too. In the third place, the giraffe can reach the high- est places. He should have a name similar to that of the man who has reached the highest places of the world. Every one knows that a bird (Byrd) can go up higher than any- thing else.” FOOT BALL INJURY FATAL.

By Cable to The Star and the Chicago Daily News. TOKIO, October 11—Gen. Per- shing’s Philadelphia. speech warning against any further reduction of the American Army has been published at length in Japan and is welcomed by supporters of increased military ap- propriations here. Gien. Pershing’s argument 1s eagerly indorsed by Japanese militarists, who point out that if the American Army’s efficlency and equipment have dropped below the level of safety. how much more Japan's defense has been neg- lected. As former supreme commander of the American forces overseas, Gen. Pershing is regarded here as among the first military authorities of the world; hence his views against reduc tion will exercise the widest and most powerful influence among Japanese militarists, especfally at present, when appropriations for the army and navy constitute the principal issue before this country’s newly enfranchised mil- lions. The former A. E. " views have been broadcast at & psy chological hour as it touches the Orient, because the Far Eastern sit- uatfon at present 15 regarded as more critical than at any previous period of history. It is thus regarded by both advisers and army and navy strate- gists. who envisage new China's awak- ening to the consclousness of vast power.

PROSPERITY CLAIM DISPUTED Oldfield Challenges State- ment—Wood Assails “Hy- pocrisy” of Democrats. The rival camps of the Republican and Democratic congressional cam paign committees issued statements last night in which they discussed prosperity and farm relfef, two of the issues in the approaching elections. Representative Willlam A. Oldfleld of Arkansas, the Democratio chaire man, cited Government reports in challenging the Republican claim of prosperity. The head of the Republis can committee, Representative Will R. Wood of Indiana, accused the Demo- cratle party leaders of hypocrisy on the question of farm relief. “President Coolldge's prosperity insue id Mr. Oldfield, “has been hit_its hardest blow by the Rureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor in its September review showing that unemployment {8 20 pe cent greater than it was in 1920 and that the annual pay roll of Ameri- can workers has been reduced during the same perfod by one-fourths Farm Conditions Cited. “This is not all. We have known for a long time that the farmer has been suffering, but his condition is going from bad to worse. The last statement on the subject by the De- partment of Agriculture, made on Oc- tober 1, showed that the purchasing power of farm products had fallen 11 points from August, 19 to August, 1926, and had reached the lowest poing in more than two years." He also cited Bradstreet's report on commercial failures for nine months of 1926, showing an increase of 5.3 per cent in number and of 29 per cent in the amount of liabil- ities, us compared with the same period of 1925, and called attention 10 the turn in the trade. “The outstanding feature of the Democratic party’s contentions in the present campalgn,” Mr. Wood sald, “Is the hypocrisy in its plea to farm- ers that agricultural progress depends on electing & Democratio House end Senate. 2 “The Democratic policy on agricul- ture is based on reduction ef tarift on farm products. Work Will Go On, He Says, “What 1s it by hyprocrisy to tell the Western farmer he will be helped and then to plan to remove the tariff on his products so s to make him face competition with which he can- not compete? “Any effort to blame the Republican party for the fallure of the McNary- Haugen bill is further hyprocisy, whether that bill was economically sound and workable or not. In elther House or Senate, had half the nega~ tive Democratic votes been ative the bills would have passed. “The Republican record of resculng the farmer from the ruins of 1920 and 1921 and its certainty to go ahead with its work until agricultural prob- lems are solved also is evident.” - More than half of the county st
