VON CRONAUPLAS HTLANTC ARLINE German Flyer to Propose; Mail Service to Span Ocean. : By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, September 9——Can:.‘ Walfgang Von Gronau, German aviator, whe flew from Germany to Chicago across the Northern circle route, came to New York Monday with the an- nouncement that he was ready to sub- mit proposals for an intercontinental airmail line to his German backers, Piloted into Glenn Curtiss Airport at $:10 pm. (E. 8. T.) by Miss Hertha Mirow, who won her pilot's license in Hudson, Ohio, a year ago, the Dornier wal in which he made his transatlantic flight was berthed beside the DO-X, giant German seaplane. The Von Gronau ship left Cleveland at 12 noon (E. S. T.) and_passed two hours later over Niagara Falls. Pre- viously the group had flown to the alr meet from Chicago, where Von Gronau ended his ocean flight. Recommendations Ready. Capt. Von Gronau will submit his recommendations for the Arctic mail and express l!ine to Lufthansa, Ger- man Flying Co., next week. He will recommend a route from Hamburg through Reykjavik, Iceland; Ivigtut, Greenland, and a point in Western Labrad to two terminals, Chicago and New York. “Such a route would mean 45 hours of flying between the German and American terminals,” he said. “With relay plenes ready at each point, the transshipuient of postal matter between the two countries should be swift and highly beneficial to trade.” The distance would be 4,300 miles. Capt. von Gronau, first pilot to take & ship over the ice cap of Greenland and complete his planned journey, said the country over which he passed had been “forbidding to look at from the air and probably not attractive enough for a passenger line.” Parker Cramer, attempting a west- ward passage over a proposed mail route to Dermark, passed over the Greenland FACES RETURN IN FRAUD |GERMANY NOW READY Philadelphia Buspect to Be Taken T) TAKE U.

She warned against defective electric cords and fixtures, faulty gas pipes and connections, medicines, antiseptics and disinfectants carelessly left about, un- protected fireplaces and heads of stairs, unscreened windows, razors, sharp knives and scissors. “Neatness and orderliness in the house is one of the best safety meas- ures and prevents many an accident,” [Capt.

Films to Show Route. *“We hope to have our motfon picture films of the route developed in New York and ready for submission upon our arrival home,” Von Gronau added Accompanying the flyer was Eduard Hack, mechanic. All agreed that only flying boats would be practical for mak- ing the proposed schedule of mail trips. Tomorrow the flyers, together with the DO-X company and Clarence Chamber- lin, Otto Hillie, Holger Hoirlis and others who have flown the Atlantic will be given a reception by Acting German General Consul Dr. Paul Schwarz. The Dornier Wal group will sail for home Wednesday on the liner Hamburg. TWO MEXICO STATES TIGHTEN CHURCH LAW Yucatan Legislature Approves Change Permitting Only Nine Priests to Function.

JOHNS, Newfoundland, Septem- | Order a pound of Maxwell House at your grocer’s. Prepare it in your usual way. Then if you and your family don’t agree that it is the finest coffee you ever drank; if you don’t find that it is real economy compared with weaker, Oxygen-robbed coffees, simply return the can with unused portion to the grocer from whom you bought it and he will return your money. flxygen can’t hijack Maxwell House flavor That’s why the new VITA-FRESH Process is winning new friends for this famous coffee oNCE you have tried your first can of Max- well House packed by the new Vita-Fresh method, you will realize why you have never been quite sure about your coffee. For Maxwell House, packed this new scien- tific way, is always uniform in strength and flavor. Because it is strictly fresh, not robbed of its precious fragrance and aroma by Oxygen, you can follow the simple directions on the package and get a superb cup of coffee every time. Coffee flavor is highly perishable. Air (Oxygen) robs coffee of its strength and flavor. Just read these amazing facts established in the laboratories of a leading Eastern University: (1) Loose or bag coffee loses 65% of its flavor in nine days after roasting. (2) Coffee in old-fashioned cans loses 45% of its flavor in nine davs after roasting. Al due to the attack of Oxygen. Think of it! Forty-five to sixty-five per cent of the flavor gone from nine-day-old coffee. Even vacuum packing, a definite improvement over old-fashioned methods, removes only part of the air from the can, leaving sealed in enough Oxygen to cause flavor loss and deterioration. The new Vita-Fresh Process removes the air so completely that the most rigid chemical analysis reveals no trace of Oxygen in the Vita-Fresh can after packing. Remember—Oxygen is the destroyer of coffee freshness and flavor. The Vita-Fresh Process alone gives full protection to coffee goodness. Maxwell House and Maxwell House only gives you this guarantee of full flavor, full value in every pound. GOOD TO THE LAST DROP e A
