FORD ARKS 72 BRTHDAY QUETLY Secluded in Lake Cottage, < Motor Magnate Plans % No Ceremony. By the Associated Press. BIG BAY, Mich, July 30.—Henry Ford was 72 years old today. The founder of one of the world’s greatest industrial empires observed the birth- day anniversary at his “cottage,” & 16-room affair, in the Huron Moun- tain Club grounds ca the shore of Lake Superior. With Mjs, Ford, the motor magnate €ame here aboard one of his freighters several days ago for his annual vaca- tion, timing it to coincide with the period during which his assembly plants throughout the country would be closed down for a fortnight. Plans No Ceremony. As usual on his birthdays, Ford denied himself to interviewers and planned no ceremony of any kind. ‘The absence of telephone or telegraph wires at the Ford place enabled him to enjoy the seclusicn he invariably seeks on his vacation jaunts. In previous years Ford “roughed it” a bit more strenuously on his vacations. With John Burroughs, the naturalist; Thomas A. Edison, the in- ventor, and Harvey- Firestone, tire manufacturer, vacation for Ford meant a “gypsy” expedition into the woods. With the passing of Burroughs and Edison, however, the camping trips were discontinued. If Ford were disposed to “fib” about his age, he would have little difi- culty, for he carries his 72 years as though many of them still were ahead of him. His light, wiry body is stooped only slightly, his eye is clear and his handshake is firm. When ne talks to a visitor it is of the future, not the past, for he believes bigger and harder work lies ahead of him as well as his fellow men. Studies Plants’ Reopening. At the moment he is chiefly inter- ested in bringing about a closer tie- up between agriculture and industry, and although somewhat isolated in the Huron Mountain region of this Northern Michigan section, he is de- voting considerable time and thought to what is to be done when his plants reopen on August 12. While the absence of communica- tion facilities at his cottage assures him the quiet he sought for his Mid- summer vacation, sheafs of telegrams and considerable mail are carried by courier from this village to the Ford place several miles north and west of here. .

GARRIDO IS .REPORTED MAINTAINING CONTROL By the Associated Press. MEXICO CITY, July 30.—Student leaders charged today that Tomas Garrido Canabal, “Red Shirt” leader | and former political dictator of the State of Tabasco, still maintained partial control of the state. Telegrams from Villa Hermosa to the student leaders asserted the new governor, Gen. Aureo C. Calles, named to replace Garrido's governor,” had failed to take any action to break Garrido's power. Gen. Calles has authorized the “Red Shirts” to remain in existence and has recognized municipal governments known to be subservient to Garrido, the student messages said. Births Reported.

Let her be fore- rned, however, that she will prob- ably have to pay at the rate of $13,- 466.80 a dozen! According to London quotations re- cently received by the Ornithological Division of the Museum, the open mar- ket price on the half dozen eggs avail- able ranged from $514 for imperfect ones, to $1,5642 for perfect ones. “Per- fect” is the word, not fresh, of course, for the latest one could not have been laid later than 1844. Eggs of the great auk, extinct since sallors and whalers went after the birds for their skins and feathers and drove: them off the face of the earth about the middie of the fast century— these are the eggs under discussion. Some Londoner, tired of his collection of bird eggs, put them loose on the market at auction. There are only 32 of them in the world. $100 for Broken Egg.

That egg, patched not too well with glue and thin paper, lies carefully bedded in cotten in one of the Museum’s upstairs fireproof vaults today. On display downstairs is a plaster cast of it. An aepyornis (elephant bird) egg, 1aid somewhere back in the pleistocene or recent prehistoric period, was of- fered for $565.40, postage prepaid. This would be an egg from that bird popularized by Sinbad, the Sailor, as the roc. By tieing himself to the leg of the roc by his sash, Sinbad was wafted all unbeknownst to the mighty bird out of the valley of diamonds. Lates, s ship he was on was reduced to splinters when a covey of enraged rocs plucked boulders up from the earth and ascending over the helpless vessel, dropped them one by one on the deck.

Par- tially fossilized, it is nevertheless an original egg. For size, consider it the equivalent of & dozen dozen hen’s eggs, $139 Value No Money Down! or 2,000 humming bird’s eggs. Aepy- ornis eggs are the largest ever laid and usually are found buried deeply in the sands in Madagascar, the only spot in the world where the bird lived. Other valuable egg exhibits of the Museum are condor's eggs, listed now at an exchange value to museums at $750 each, and the perfect casts of two dinosaur eggs—the originals sell- ing at the modest sum of $5,000 each and millions of years old. ‘The Museum does not even have a cast of & moa egg and thick tomes on this bird list only four known perfect specimens in the world. This bird, a little larger than the ostrich, became extinct in its native home, New Zea- land, about the timé Columbus dis- covered America. Its remains, how- ever, were not disinterred until 1838. One of the eggs was found in the grave of a Maori, where it had lain unbroken for centuries. It was of a greenish color and measured 6% by 10%; inches. Army Flyer Killed.

There was & moment’s pause, Then he sald, in a low voice: “I refuse to answer.” “You may step down,” commanded Judge Bryant. Di Larmi stood before him and the court passed sentence. Di Larmi was one of four Schults lieutenants subpoenaed by the Gov- ernment as “hostile” witnesses against their erstwhile chief. “Joseph Harmon” was one of the several aliases which Schultz used in maintaining bank accounts during his reign as e Bronx beer baron.
