C, July 25.—The International Paper Co. and the Inter- national Paper & Power Co. Tuesday were named as defendants in a suit for $2,500,000 damages filed in Court of ! Common Pleas here by William Lavarre, who with Harold Hall purchased four South Carolina and Georgia news- papers during January, March and April. ‘The petition charged the ('A)mpaniesl with having violated an agreement to | loan Lavarre $2,500,000 for financing and purchasing newspapers over a period of two years and with having entered into a “fraudulent conspiracy” along with Harold Hall to defraud him of the benefits of a plan and contract | which he conceived. He charged that at the time of the Federal Trade Commission hearings in ‘Washington he was induced to give the paper company a demand note for $870,- 000 instead of a two-year note, and that after he refused to suppress the reports of the hearing as carried by the As- sociated Press threats were made to call the note. He charges that Harold Hall, acting for the company, sought to have editors of the papers suppress news of the hearings. Attachment proceedings were irmsti- tuted today against holdings of the pa- per and power companies in the State. ‘The International Paper & Power Co., parent company of the International Paper Co., has_an Santee-Cooper River Canal electric power development.

Capital Turn Rule ‘Washington's lack of uniform- ity in left-turn methods has been described in various ways—by terms even more diversified than the regulations themselves—but it remained for Mrs. Charles Savage, Rochester, N. Y., to cap the climax with the phrase “every-which-way.” “When one of our neighbors learned we were coming to Wash. ington, she exclaimed to me, ‘You will have to look out down there as they run every which way,’” said Mrs, Savage yesterday. “Guess she must have been talking about your left turn rules,” added Mr. Savage. Which completed the picture— there was no need of saying more. WOMAN FINED $21,885 FOR EVADING CUSTOMS Leviathan Passenger With 32 Pieces of Baggage Pays Penalty in New York. By the Associated Press.

C, THURSDAY, SPARROWS IN DROVES ‘ATTACK’ BRITISH PLANES Spunky Birds Stand “Ground” Against Air “Invaders”—Blown Away by Propellers. LONDON (Special) —A “flight” of English sparrows made & last unsuc- cessful stand at Hendon on Saturday against the full strength of Britain's Royal Air Force. Few birds are left in the neighborhood of Hendon Airdrome, where the nation’s pilots gave a be- wildering display of aerobatics for the Prince of Wales, the Duke and Duchess of York and thousands of visitors from every corner of the globe. The roar of hundreds of airplanes has frightened away the timid robins, crows and pigeons, but the belligerent sparrows, with the courage of despair, came out in force on Saturday to join battle with those who have dared chal- lenge them in their own natural ele- ment. Avoiding the giant bombers and the harmless stunt machines, the birds prepared for a massed fast “fairy foxes,” swooping at 150 miles per_hour to ann! town. ‘The sparrows rose as one in the path of the onrushing machines and stood their ground bravely until the planes were upon them, when the rush of air, more tham a direct hit, blew them in all directions like flies before an electric fan, No casualties attack on the te an imaginary were CRUISE TO JULY 25, observed, but by the time the birds had reformed for another attack the second flight of machines was upon them. Realizing the hopelessness of their position, they flew low along the und with dejected tail feathers to oin the crows and pigeons in quiet fields a few miles to the north. 1929.
