Fahy Makes Sec- | ond Attempt to Beat Mark » Set by Martin Jensen. | By the Assoctated Press. | METROPOLITAN AIRPORT, Los | Angeles, Calif., May 28.—Herbert J. Fahy, test pilot for the Lockheed Air- craft Co. here, hopped off at 4:43:05 | am. today In his second attempt to better the solo non-stop mark of 35 hours 33 minutes 21 seconds established | by rtin Jensen at Roosevelt Field, st February. | plane was laden with 435 gal- | of gasoline, enough to keep him aloft for about 40 hours. Fog Interfered. The first attempt of the pilot to shatter the record ended here Sunday after a little more than 21 hours the air. The terms under which he and his plane had been insured required him to stay above Metropolitan Airport during the hours of darkness and he declared this had prevented him from moving away from the fog area. o of the Lockheed Co., backers | the flight, said the insurance terms been modified to permit Fahy to | move about in case fog again interfered with the flight FLYERS GET MANY OFFERS. | | A ) | Holders of New Endurance Record Are Presented With Rewards for Flight. FORT WORTH, Tex., May 28 (#).—Reg L. Robbins and James Kelly yesterday began to reap some of the rewards in store for them as the new holders of the world endurance flight, record. Rested by a long sleep after complet- ing 172 hours, 32 minutes and 1 second of continuous fiight in their single- motored monoplane Fort Worth, the airmen awoke today to find presents and lucrative offers pouring in on them. The acclaim and bids for their serv- ices were in sharp contrast with the little aid the former railroad mechanic and the erstwhile cowpuncher received in preparing for the endurance test. Many Offers Received. Scores of offers for vaudeville engage- | ments, newspaper and magazine articles on the flight and various positions with aircraft concerns were received. Robbins and Kelly had not decided what course to follow, but friends ex- pressed the belief that they would go an | aerial “barnstorming tour.” A representative of the Mahonay- | Ryan Aircraft Corporation of St. Louls | arrived with word that a new Ryan plane with a Wright Whirlwind motor would be presented to the flyers in recognition of their record-smashing cruise in the Fort Worth, a rebullt Ryan plane. Given Cash. Robbins and Kelly will receive $5,500 each from the Fagt Worth Association of Commerce and $5,000 will be divided between K. K. Hoffman and H. S. Jones, who refueled the endurance ship during its flight of more than seven days, which ended Sunday afternoon. Approximately $2,000 will be paid to Robbins and Kelly by aircraft com- anies which offered the men $100 an gflur for each hour they exceeded the former record of 150 hours 40 minutes 15 seconds set by the Army monoplane Question Mark, ‘The barograph of the Fort Worth was on its way to Washington today, where it will be examined before official recog- nition will be accorded the new record. May Recondition Plane. Black with oil and mud, but still in remarkably good condition considering the long hours it was in the air, the Fort Worth rested today in the munici- pal hangar guarded from souvenir hunters. The ship probably will be re- conditioned for further use. Mechanics said the plane and the ‘Wright Whirlwind motor were in such shape that the flight could have been continued many hours longer had it not been for the severe vibrations caused by the unballanced propeller. The propeller, dented on the second day of the flight when it struck Kelly's safety belt while he was perched under the nose of the plane greasing the motor, developed a deep crack from the beating rain through which the ship flew Saturday night. The rain also pitted the blades. Loosened cowling on both sides of the fuselage showed the strain under which the plane had labored after the pro- peller was damaged. A few rips in the aluminum stream lining of the wing struts were the qnly other marks the plane bore. _— Postal Telegraph Officer Dies. ATLANTA, Ga., May 28 (#).—George W.

SUGGESTS ONE-MINUTE STOP FOR VEHICLES American Business Club Officials Advocate Plan as Possible Solu- tion of Difficulties. Permanent adoption of a system re- stricting vehicular trafic from moving in any direction for a period of one minute during which time pedestrians | would be permitted to move was offered by Howard E. Severe, vice president of the American Business Club in a letter to Director of traffic William H. Har- land as possible solution to the present vehicular-pedestrian difficulties. The letter, made public today, cites the cgucces of such a plan now in effect at DuPont Circle where all vehicles are halted for a period of thirty seconds, giving the right-of-way to pedestrians. : Mr. Severe pointed out that adoption of such a plan would eliminate much of the hardships now wrought on ades, and hope to | pedestrians who are denied the privi- lege of making a safe crossing of streets by the right-turn motorists.

PEACE ESTABLISHED IN TEXTILE DISPUTE “Communistic” Threat Is Broken When Strikers Agree to Return to Work. By the Associated Press. ELIZABETHTON, Tenn, May 28— A “communistic” threat that for a time vesterday hung over the peaceful set- | | tlement of the six-week strike in the American | | Glanzstoff Mills here, was dissipated American Bemberg and vesterday afterncon and peace again Teigned in Happy Valley. Strikers appearing at a hotel to ap- ply for reinstatement yesterday morning saw T. Perry, alleged abductor of two union leaders, at the place and refused to apply for work, because, they be- lieved him employed by the mills. Charges were made by Willlam F. Kelly, vice president of the United Textile Workers of America, that communist agents were among the workers, incit- ing them to abrogate the settlement reached yesterday. After refusing to sign for work with Perry present, the strikers congregated at the tabernacle where volunteers spoke to them urging them not to re- turn to work as the mills had “double crossed” them. Two men and two women, unidentified by the strikers, cir- culated among the crowd urging them not to return to work. Kelly, Edward F.

Ramsey Rees, a newspaper man, mounted a platform and told the strik- ers that Perry was not connected with the registration, but by this time they were highly excited and it was several hours before the urging of union lead- ers and business men quieted the strik- ers and the conference at which the misunderstanding was straightened out | was called, Registration began immediately and observers expressed the opinion that the mills would be running with a full force by June 10. as the officials an- nounced they planned to do. FEDERATION BACKS WORKERS. Council Directs Green to Oppose Any Conscription Bill. The American Federation of Labor | yesterday went on record as standing squarely behind textile workers in Southern States, The executive council of the organi- zation, closing & meeting here, voted to continue aid to the workers and left in the hands of its president, Willlam Green, the campalgn for rellef, in- structing him to take such action as conditions demand. Hearings into the textile situation in Southern States were held by the council. President Green was directed by the council to oppose any conscription bill that provides for drafting workers in industry and the council declared in :"IVOI’ of greater restriction of immigra- o 2 Bills before Congress liberalizing the retirement act and extending the pro- T § MEVER 5.0 A DAVLS? r olChevyy'?
