Decree Set Aside After Mar- riage to Priscilla Dean, Actress. By the Associated Press. ATLANTA, Ga., June 19.—What was characterized as a_fraudulent divorce from a former wife appeared ex 8 ow today over the recent marriage of Lesiie Philip Amnold, one’ of the six original round-the-world fiyers, and Prscilla_Dean, motion picture actress. The Fulton County Superior Court yesterday set aside the divorce from Mrs. Mildred Arnold granted the for- mer officer of the Army Air Corps at Atlanta in April, 1926, on the ground it had been obtained by fraud. Arnold and Miss Dean were married in Sep- tember, 1928. Arnold was represented by counsel, but was not present. The fraud al- leged was that he did not have Mrs. Arnold served with papers in the case | when the suit was filed in March, 1925. Arnold set up grounds of desertion. Mrs. Arnold said she had not heard | of the proceedings: until some time | later when the Army officer wrote her | at her home In Groton, Conn., from Los Angeles that he had been granted the Community Chest expect to get $1.865.406.54. They also expect to get 5272,143.02 from endowment and mis- | cellaneous_sources.

Before adjourning sessions here yes- ' | terday the Editorial Council of the Re- representing * important Protestant periodicals throughout the | country, adopted a resolution com- mending.

This followed a -discussion on the conference floor during which the chyrch, as a whole, as well as the re- s press, was taken to task for-a| | lack of understanding and unity in| ! supporting great world reform move- | m ents. The resolution set forth that Presi- | dent Hoover has availed himseif of the LESLIE P. ARNOLD HOOVER MAY NAME 210 BOARD SOON President Is Expected to An- nounce Federal Farm Group | Selections Within Week. ‘That formula, general revision as re- | spects agriculture and strictly limited revision as respects, other industries, is | a fair statement of President Hoover's | recommendation. If the tariff situation now follows the same courss as the farm versy, come back to this formula. In the current judgment of Wash- | ington the prevailing bell!f LI that the oucome will not, so to speak, come out that way. The bill llm! written by | the - lower house departs m-wm beyond the Hmit su; . As to the te, h\ 'Me the bill now begins its course, the com- mon expectation is that that body will g0 much farther than the House toward The facts favor the presumption th the majority of the Senate wants to do | this and can do it. The Senate, by its significant voté on the Borah resolution, broke down the distinction between ~ agriculture and other industries, with one kind of re- vision for the first and another kind for the others. It threw overboard the idea of so writing the tariff as to bring ag- riculture upward to parity with other industries. All revision ules and all industries are now in a common pool. In that situation abundant precedent shows that shrewd traders, wanting specific raises, can unite in an arrangement which makes general revision and upward revision almost unbeatable. Those who oppose have nothing material with which w‘ trade among themselves and therefore | nothing to cement them into unity. ‘Within the next week, President Hoo- ver hopes to be able to announce ap- pointment of one and possibly two of the eight members of the Federal Farm Board, which is to administer relief to American agriculture under the terms of the farm relief bill. ' The ninth mem- ber of this board will be the Secretary of Agriculture. It is doubtful if the President will be in a position to complete all of these appointments - within - the next three weeks, but it is thought likely he will not wait until he has completed the task before making any announcements. Indications are that as he completes :nch appointment he will make it pub- ic. The President has several hundred names from all sections of the cuunlry ot persons who are supposed familiar with the needs of Ilrlcul!llu More than 100 of the names he has had before him for more thnn two monum. and therefore has had opportunity to make examination of t.he qualifications of each. During debate upon the farm bill in Congress. names of aspirants continued to arrive at the White House, and since the bill has become a law the President’s office has been virtually flooded with recommendations. Ewing Is Suggested. Several of the President's congres- sional callers today had suggestions to make regarding the selection of the board. Senators Tyson and McKellar of . Tennessee, accompanied by the| Democratic members of the House from that_State, urged appointment of Felix G. Ewing of Springfield, Tenpn., who has been prominently identified with organizing co-operative burley tobacco growers, —Senator Smith of South Carolina ‘Introduced Dr. Wade Stack- house of Dillon, 8. C., whom he rep- resented as & successful farmer and mill operator. Senators Prazier and Nye of North Dakota called in the in- terest of a eandidate for this. board from their State, as did Senators Jones of Washington and Ransdell of Louisiana. President Hoover experienced one of his busiest days, at least so far as the number of engagements was eon- cerned, since inauguration. his engagement list there were 22 au- diences, 3 of which called for group photographs in the rear grounds, Be- sides thm many engagements, which started at 10 ocluck in the mnrnl.ns and are to continue up until 4:3 o'clock this afternoon, with an hour and a half recess for lunch, the Pres- ident received a number of callers who did not have engagements-as well as several hundred tourists, ' Gets Carolina Invitation. ‘THe ‘President posed for - graph with 300 members of the "2¢ and '28 classes of the Bliss Electrical School of this city and 125 members of the Shopcrafts Association of the Pennsyl- vania’ Raflroad.

The eight plan will arrive here tomorrow morning, flying from Akron, Ohlo, under command of Maj. A. H. Maranville, former Army fiyer and lead- er of the tour. The flagship of the formation will be r.hrl.nkned early to- morrow afternoon by Miss Mary Fechet, daughter of Maj. Gen. James E. Fechet, chief of the Army Air Corps. ‘The other seven planes wlll ‘be piloted by Army pilots, who have been granted extended leaves of absence from Sel- fridge Pield, Mich. The first stop on the tour will be Youngstown, Ohio. The fleet will reach Erie, Pa,, June 23; Cleveland, June 24; Detroit, June 20‘ and FHnt and Lansing, June 27. The planes are duplicates of a plane now being used by Comdr. Richard E. Byrd on his Antarctic e: ition. The tour is a test of the endurance of the planes for commercial operations. The radial ‘air-cooled engines of each of the planes will be carefully checked and examined at each airport. Flight conditions at various altitudes and un- der different atmospheric conditions will be studied. MAKES ARREST RECORD. Policeman; Takes in 36 in Single Night on Thirteenth Street.

The President appeared pleased at this invitation and said he would take under’ advisemient. new and sincere evidences of friendly statesmanship in Great Britain, has lent to Europe the technical skill and o cans, with satisfying results, and has manifested also a aisposition to pro- mote the mutual welfare in Mexico and other Latin American republics by the spirit of equality and fraternity, rather than by superior economic and politi- cal force. A declaration by Charles Stelzle of the Federal Council of Churches that | “the average religious paper is a dud,’ led to a sharp difference of opinion as to the responsibility of the religious press with regard to church co-opera- tion and unity. After the discussion from the floor, the subject was renewed by L. O. Hartman, editor of Zion's Her~ aid, at the luncheon which folowed, who contended that the religious press has n its editors. realize in mferflrm briefly to former attempts of church conferences to take a unified stand with regard to prohibition, Mr. Stelzle declared that failure. was due to the fact that “they seem to hate each other more than they hate the common enemy.” - Credits Secular Press. Frankly giving more credit to the secular press in disseminating church news than the religious press, Mr. Stelzle criticized the latter for a lack of virility and failure to face frankly the “great movements in Which the man on | the street is intereste “When it comes to the point of get- ting church news,” he said, “the dail newspapers are putting it all over you,' in explaining that the secular press de- votes columns to great questions in which the church is interested and which the religious publications dismiss “with a line or two.” Particularly in the matter of world peace did the speaker deplore the fail- ure of the church and its press to take the lead. “We're always trailing be- hind,” he admonished the editors. “The religious press‘is not nearly so interested in world peace as it should be.” As for the church itself, he declared that those outside it have manifested more inter- est in the advancement of world peace than those within it. James E. Clarke, editor of the Presby- teriarr Advance, contended that if the | religlous press is to increase its influ- ence, it should appeal either directly to the masses of people or to them through their leaders. Mr. Stelzle had explained that the power of the secular press as a medium for the dissemina- tion of church news Hes chlefly in the fact that it reaches 98 per cent of the masses,” while the rluflmu press reaches only about 2 per cent. & Exceptions Taken. Some took_exéeption to his yiew of the waning power of church influence in the decl foreign mission work. The churches are “limping along for lack of financial support,” Mr. Stelzle Church drganization has been “institu- tionalized” to a point- never before reached in its history. In u!lmntlnl church contributions today, minded the editors that the dolllr of 1929 is worth only 60 cents of the dol- lar of 1914 and in that comparison there has been a decline of from 5 cents to half a cent per capita in sup- port of mission work. “In the last analysis of the problems of the church, they must be worked out - thi h local organizations,” he said, the approach must be through the religious press.” What the church needs is a diagnostician or an interpreter, he urged in explaining that the religious press should fill this role. At the luncheon conference Mr. Hart- man took up this theme, urging that it was the duty ‘of religious editors “to raise the issue, to promote discussion of all those questions which affect hu- man welfare.” Contending that the religious press has more influence than is realized, he said in recent years-it has been pmicuhrly eflecnw in its in- fluence on world Nicaraguan question, prohibition And clnrenz ad- vertising.

Then there began i @' violent shaking—as if some one had hold of me and was manhandling me. Shaking Snaps Head. This shaking, or snapping, was so violent that my head was thrown back and forth. The speed of the ship seemed appalling. The last I had noticed the altimeter read aproximately six or seven thousand feet, which was just before the snapping began. I had been positive before this that there was something wrong. Now the plane was falling into a| spin. I have been in many spins, but this was entirely different. It was so much more violent.
