Two of the drifting bags were man- ned by army pilots, two by navy air- men and two by civilian balloonists. Cross currents shifted the bags pi- loted by Major Oscar Westover of the army. and Lieut. Commander J. P. Norfleet of the navy from the north- eastern course which they pursued at the start from Milwaukee and when last heard from they were hovering over the edge of Lake Erie and float- ing east by north. The remaining four bags believed to be still in the race were carried down the Mississip- pi valley on surface winds. Reasons For Stopping Several of the pilots quit the race because they could expect no more favors from the winds and wished to hold the distance they had covered troit, one of the seven civilians shot These included Ralph TUpson, of De- high into the sky at the hop-off. He descended near Painesville, O., last night when shifting winds threatened to start him back over the crooked course his bag pursued.

' MAX'S LOVE AFFAIR NOW IN BAD TANGLE Swiss May Need Consent of Both MeGormicks Chicago, June 2.—Contending fac- tions of the erstwhile household of Harold F.

Mr. Mec- Cormick, playing the double role of father and guardian, has agreed to withhold consent of- the marriage at least until Saturday. Consent of Both Needed Meanwhile the situation was made more complex by information from Zvrich that the whole legal embrog !io in Chicago is for naught. This in- formation was to the effect that the Swiss law requires the consent of both parents, if living, in the case of a bride under 20 years of age. Ma- thilde, who is only 17 was given a guardian, it was said so consent to the marriage would be given or de- nied according to her wishes. Undaunted by the legal complica- tions and the charges made by Mrs. McCormick that he is a fortune hunt- er with designs on both McCormick and Rockefeller millions, Oser, in re- ports from Zurich was said to be con- tinuing plans for the marriage as if nothing loomed to interfere. Counsel for Mr. and Mrs. McCor- mick asserted that no basis for a final compromise on the proposed interna- tional marriage has been reached. WOMEN ELIGIBLE Attorney General of England Rules There is Nothing to Keep Them From Being Judges. London, Jpne 2.—There is nothing to prevent properly qualified women from being appointed judges in Eng- land, and wearing the black gowns, big horsehair wigs and other symbols of judicial dignity, the attorney gen- eral Sir Ernest Polluck has ruled. Asked by a Lincolnshire member, whether as a woman had now been called to the bar and athers would be called in the near future, judicial positions would be open to them, Sir Ernest said: “Any woman who possesses the statutory qualifications required for the appointment to a judicial office is eually with any human eligible for ap- pointment to that office.” — TO MEET IN CHICAGO.

When that fell through he supported the McCumber bill, Senator MclLean sald yesterday to The Journal-Courier cor- respondent: “An insurance benefit plan was my first choice. I advocated a paid-up in- surance of $2,000, the policy to be negotiable so the boys could raise money on it if they desired to do so. After the committee voted that down I voted in favor of the McCumber bill, the next best thing in sight. I believe we should pass a soldier bo- nus at the earliest possible date.” T'he general opinion here is that the senats will hold back a vote on the bonus until the tariff is out of the way and then rush through the commit- tee bill and that the house will ac- cept it. Then it will be up to the president to sign or veto. Although no one hazards predictions what he will do there is an undercurrent opin- ion he will veto any measure that does not provide for payment through a sales tax. BELIEVES 0. 5. T0 LEAD IN AVIATION Italian Inventor Looks to This Country for Improvements Genoa, June 2.—Gianna Caproni, the Ttalian airplane inventor and con- structor, considers the United States today to be the best field in the world for the development of civillan aviation.

Promising Growth. ““The country covers roughly about the same area as Europe,” and all thbe elements for speedy growth are present. I hope to contribute to this branch of American activity.” Germans are showing the greatest activity in Europe, at the present time, in the field of aeronautics, ac- cording to aerial observers at Genoa during the recent conference. An- thony Fokker and Professor Junkers, both German experts, have leased three airplane factories in Holland. The Zeppelin company is active in a factory on the Swiss side of Lake Constanza, and at the same time has leased an Italian factory near Genoa and is organizing a company for aviation construction near Seville, Spain.
