-FLYING TIME CUT T0SOUTHAMERICA New Schedule Puts Colom- bia Within 24 Hours of Washington. Dawn-te-dusk air transport service between North and South America, putting South American ports within 24 hours of Washington, will be tnau- gurated spon by Pan-American Air- ways, it was announced here last night after the Post Office Department had approved the new schedules. New high-speed service across the Caribbean will cut nearly a day from travel time to 33 countries and colonies served by the United States airmail line. In addition to speeding up sched- ules, service over the great eastern trade route from Florida to Argentina will be increased from one to two trips & week as far as Rio de Janeiro. Over the East Coast route & new fleet of giant four-engined, high-speed Clipper ships, carrying 32 passengers each, will be put into service. These big flying boats are similar to those which ploneered Pan - American’s trans-Pacific service to Hawaii and the Philippines. Sister ships also will be used on the trans-Caribbean route to Colombia and the Canal Zone. West Coast Also Affected. ©On the West Coast route of Pan- American-Grace Airways, new high- speed, multi-engine, amphibian trans- ports, modeled after the larger Clip- pers, and twin-engined Douglas air- liners will be used to speed up service from the Canal Zone to Peru and Chile and across the Andes to Buenos Aires. The new schedules will bring the West Indies, as far as San Juan, Puerto Rico, within 24 hours of cities as far west as Chicago. Jamaica will be within 18 hours of Washington, New York and Chicago. Colombia, on the South American continent, will be | within 24 hours' travel time from Washington. Ecuador will be reached | in 48 hours from Washington, Lima, | Peru, within 2!, days; Northern Chile, 3 days, and Santiago, Chile, 4 days. From Brownsville, Tex., new sched- ules will bring all of Mexico and | Guatemala within one day's travel from the United States, and all of Central America and Panama within two days. Associated airlines in Mex- ico, Cuba, Honduras and Colombia | also are speeding up schedules with | new muilti-engine, high-speed trans- | ports similar to those in service on domestic airlines within the United Btates. Trade Gains Cited. It also was announced here that ar- rangements have been concluded in | 29 countries of South and Central | America for a standard system of | transportation for passengers to and from all ports without extra charge. | “Constantly mounting trade activity | between the United States and the | Southern Americas, reflected in in- | creased demand for passenger accom- modations on the international routes, together with growing force of Euro- pean trade and air transport competi- | tion in Eastern South America, were | underlying reasons for advancing the | new schedules,” it was explained by | officials of the international system. | “At the present time a weekly aver- | age of 4,000 passengers, better than 2,000,000 letters and 30 tonsof air-ex- press merchandise are being carried over the Pan-American routes between this country and the West Indies, Cen- tral America and South America.” GOV. EARLE APPEALS TO BUSINESS MEN| Asks Grundy, Mellon, Pew and Weir to Release Senators Holding Up Relief. Er the Assoctated Press. HARRISBURG, Pa, Juily 11—/ Gov. George H. Earle, asserting that | “the Republican State Senators are | causing steadily and surely the de-| struction of 600,000 men, women and children,” sent telegrams today. to four prominent Pennsylvania busi- ness men demanding that they ‘re- lease the Senators and let them vote eppropriations for relief. The telegrams were sent to Joseph N. Pew, Philadelphia oil man; Joseph Grundy, president of the Pennsyl- vania Manufacturers’ Association; | Andrew W. Mellon of Pittsburgh, for- | mer Secretary of the Treasury, and E. T. Weir, chairman of the National | ‘ Steel Corp. The telegrams were sent at the end of the sixth day that the State’s needy | have been without money or food | orders. Charging that the Republican Sen- ators are controlled by the four re- cipients of the telegrams, Earle urged the four to let the legislators “vote | for the best interests of their people | who elected them.” A vote on relief is not possible be- fore Monday night, when the General Assembly reconvenes. The administration has conlended that $55,000,000 is needed for the longer period and the Republicans are standing by their claim that $35,000,- 000 will be sufficient. a Church in Hotel.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 11.—Shop- keeper Hyman Gorwitz pleaded inno- cent today to setting big steel-jawed traps to catch the hands of little children. ‘Two housewives testified Gorwits, 56, concealed the dangerous instru- ments under thin layers of dirt in his back yard and baited them with shiny pleces of metal resembling dimes. The traps were “strong enough to hold & wolf,” said Assistant District (Attorney Terrance Boyle. Municipal Judge Daniel 8. O'Brien called the traps “the:most vicipus ever brought into this court.” He raised Gorwitz's bond from $500 to $2,500 and sent him to jail pending the post- ing of security for release until his trial July 15. Gorwitz was charged with assult with force to produce great bodily harm. Upon conviction the maximum penalty is 10 years in prison, a $5,000 fine, or both. The storekeeper complained of “vandalism” by children. Abraham Glickberg, attorney for the accused man, sald Gorwitz had planned an out-of-town trip and be- cause of past troubles had set the traps to protect his property. Mrs. Blanche Ortow, a witness at the arraignment, testified she watched Gorwitz set the traps and quoted him: “I'll kill thoge kids. I'll get them if they come into this yard.” The “kids,” she said, were her two small daughters. 423 Seek Position.
