PORTUGAL PLANS * AIORES AR BASE Survey of Islands Is Begun to Facilitate Transatlantic Plane Flights. By the Associated Press, LISBON, September 20.—3Great agita--| tion over the lack of air landing facili- tles at the Azores, “the cemetery of aviators,” has resulted in the Portu- gulese government's starting an investi- tion of the island areas to determine @ most suitable places for landing felds. Leading ncwspapers are taking up the ecampaign, pointing out that the Azores is the natural South Atlantic air base for flights between North America and | Europe and that the government is called upon to make proper provisions for transatlantic flyers. Terceira Wins Favor. ‘The Island of Terceira is sald to have the most favorable territory on it. There is a large open space of free.pasture land in the center of theJsland at Achada, where, at small cost,"an aero- drome and safe landing fleld for land planes could be established It is only about 40 miles from the small; rocky Island of Graclosa; where the Polish aviators in the airplane Marshal Pil- sudski vainly attempted to find a land- ing place. “The Azores have no aviation' camp and in none of the islands is there a single prepared landing place,” said the paper Seculo. “Coste discovered this in time and although he had al- ready flown 2,000 kilometers; he return- ed to France sooner than run the risk of being destroyed. This and the tragic fate of the Polish flyers have called the world’s attention to our. Atlantic islands. ‘The future air lines between North America and Europe must have an avi- * ation base and it is Portugal's duty to undertake, as speedily as possible, this work of humanity and civilization. May Internationalize Island. “The idea has already been pr&;ouu of internationalizing one of the islands of our archipelago in order to establish on it a big modern aerodrome which will be future Atlantic station for all air navigation between North America and Europe. Such a decision would be ac- ceptable to our national spirit. What has to be done must be done by Portu- guese and it should be done quickly, be- fore we have a repetition of the Pil- sudski tragedy. The Azores, as they are, represent a dangerous mouse trap, from which only a miracle can save :l‘:cse aviators who attempt to land ere.” . A temporary base has been establish- ed at Achada and the government hopes to be able to make it a permanent-and effective aviation base. DESERT WARRIORS TO RESUME FIGHTING King of Hedjaz Prepares to Again Attack Leader of Wahabi Tribesmen. By the Associated Press, 2 JERUSALEM, September 20.~The re- turn of cooler weather in the desert has made it possible for Tbn Saud, King of | the Hedjaz and Emperor of the Nejd, to resume operations against the sheik, Faisal El Dowish, leader of the Mutair Confederation of Wahabl " tribesmen. He is one of the few desert sheiks who has not submitted to the authority of Ibn Saud. < ‘The Arabian ruler has been concen- trating men and military supplies for a final drive against the rebels ever since the terrific Summer heat of the desert interrupted his previous punitive expedition in April. That expedition ended shortly after Ibn Saud’s war- riors had routed the Wahabis :in a flerce clash at Sibilla. . It also is reported that the Mutair and Ajman chieftains have rallied their forces and that the Ateiba tribes, under Sultan Ibn Rijad, are ready to join t'her!r’x in resisting the negt move of Ibn | Saud. - WIFE GRANTEb DIVORCE FROM EVANGELIST’S SON Mrs. William A.
