The lecture was illustrated. Not a great deal older now than some of his youthful audience, Mc- Cormick was only 20 when appointed pilot of the machine to accompany the expedition. His 21st birthday an- niversary was spent trying to coax his plane into a take-off from an ice flow, where he had made a forced landing. ‘The practicability of an autogiro in polar work was demonstrated time and again, McCormick said, by its ability to land and take off in a lim- ited space. Often in traveling over- land through rough country, his ship led the way, flying low ahead of the ground party to pick out the best trail. Starting an airplane engine in 70- below-zero temperature is no joke, the young pilot said, especially when it has been stored in a snowbank for five months of the Antarctic Winter. McCormick was a principal in one of the most dramatic incidents ot the expedition. In the autogiro, he and Admiral Byrd rescued two members of the expedition who were forced down in a plane after they became lost miles from camp. When discov- ered, the men were in a heavy sleep, from which it was almost impossibie to arouse them. . Canadian Deaths. Canada has a death rate of 9.6 and & birth raterof 20.9.

Opening their convention on the | keynote that organization is the prin- cipal necessary factor in establishing conditions of world peace, about 75! delegates of member groups of the National Council for Prevention of War met today at the Lee House to start a three-day session. This basis for their discussions was set forth by Mrs. Lucia Ames Mead | of Boston, presiding over the morn- | Ing session, who said three-quarters of the types of violence through the world have been brought under con- | trol by erganization of forces. Inter-| national war may well be subjected | to the same influence, she continued, | in view of conditions which have | eliminated such conflicts as intercity | and interstate warfare, prevalent in former periods of history. In opening their discussion of the | elements of a consistent foreign policy for the United States, the delegates heard a letter of commendation of President Roosevelt's embargo proc- lamation from Mrs. Laura Morgan, council representative at Geneva. All Americans at Geneva were pleased at the President’s action in declaring a state of war in existence between Italy and Ethiopia, Mrs. Morgan wrote, and at his warning against aiding either | belligerent. Her report was read by Frederick J. Libby, executive secretary | of the council. Although the council delegates planned to discuss many phases of foreign policy, including support of League sanctions and the imposition of embargoes, no finding or conclu- sions are to be presented until the final day of the convention. Reports of staff members and field | workers of the council are expected | at afternoon and evening meetings | today, with discussion of the foreign policy question to be continued to- morrow morning. At that time par- ticular emphasis will be given the | matter of “peace in the Pacific,” with | reports expected from at least two | council representatives who have | studied conditions in the Orient recently. -— RHODE ISLAND AVENUE WIDENING IS ORDERED Widening and resurfacing of Rhode Island avenue from FPirst to Third streets was ordered yesterday by the Commissioners on recommendation of Capt. H. C. Whitehurst, director of highways. The roadway of Rhode Island ave- nue also is to be resurfaced from New Jersey avenue to a point approxi- mately 200 feet east of that inter- section. Paving of Chesapeake street from Nebraska avenue and Fort drive was ordered, the surface to be of cement. $I00 TO ANYONE WHOQ CAN FIND ANY WATER IN FAIRFAX J PAINTS Phone MEt. 0151 LIN-X The new finish for linoleum, woodwork.

This man, police said, was seen with the cap just before the shooting, although he had never been known to wear one prior to that time. It also was known that police have recovered the car believed to have been used by the slayers and the clip | from which the fatal bullets were fired. They also are said to know the whereabouts of the gun used in the murder. Police believe Dunn. now serving time at Alcatraz for roboery, had some | connection with the case. He has been questioned, but refused to make any statement. Prisoners Separated. | Another man whose activities have been under scrutiny is Albert S. Sut- ton, who recently was transferred from Lorton Reformatory to the jail. This transfer, it was said, was made to separate Sutton from the Lorton | prisoner under secret indictment. Offi- cials said Sutton and this man are | friends and that they did not want them to talk to each other. | Reports that Claude Bailey, recently killed while attempting to escape from | Lorton, and a fifth man, reportedly | held by police, were involved in the | shooting could not be confirmed. Since the investigation started, how- ever, at least a dozen men have been arrested from time to time and then‘\ released when their connection with the crime could not be definitely es- | tablished. One official said police have been given a mass of hearsay statements, but that they have ex- | perienced great difficulty in obtaining |any first-hand information. Dunn’s Cellmate Talks, The first “tip-off” in the case came from a prisoner serving time in the jail on a counterfeiting charge. The district attorney's office learned he had expressed a desire to tell what he knew, and this information was given | police. On Iavestigating, they learned the | prisoner had occupied the same cell with Dunn. He told them to “find the apart- ment occupied by Dunn in Washing- ton and the woman who lived there” if they wauted to solve the Wilson case. The man also told them he had overheard three other prisoners in the | jail discussing plans for the car bamn | robbery, which resulted in the slaying | of James M. Mitchell and Emory | Smith, Capital Transit Co. employes. | This robbery, he said, was plotted in the District Jail. | He gave the name of one of the men, | who later was arrested, and said he | could identify the other two if he saw | them. When taken into custody, the man named by the prisoner denied his | story and was later released. He lives in New Jersey, | Others Not Located. | and other cities by detectives in an | effort to locate the other two men, who | had been released from the jail shortly | SRS % Will you let us explain why Wil 3{( designed snd built in the Willi “ e Ralph J.

She, too, is said to have given valuable information, and later did undercover work. James Pugh, Montgomery County State’s attorney, said a special grand jury would not be called, but that the case will be presented to the regular grand jury November 11 if ready by that time. He said the Washington investigators had done “the best piece of detective work he had ever seen” on the case. Man in Black Robe And Wig Generates, Stir in High Court By the Associated Press. Clad in a long. black robe, large white starched collar and wearing a white wig, a man who signed his name as “Francis-J. Cahill, Esq., the Bronx,” caused a minor stir yesterday at the Supreme Court. Spectators were much impressed when the man entered the public sec- tion of the austere chamber, but court attendants halted him when during | a recess he attempted to present a paper to the Supreme Court bench. They informed him papers should be left with the clerk. The man then carried an unusual 12-page type- written document to the clerk’s office. Filled with Latin phrases, quota- tions from the classics and legal terms, the “brief” said its writer had been adjudged “non compos mentis” in 1920 and had had numerous diffi- culties since then with the Veterans' Administration over disability com- pensation, It also listed in detail a family estate case in New York courts, the dispute between Mayor La Guardia and the New York City corporation counsel over the license of a German masseur, and financial problems of the national administration. < Insurance Exclusively For 25 Years M.
