TRANSFERS AU, HEEPS OLD PLATES Seller toBe Arrested for Not‘ Turning in Markers During the trial of James Gill, aged 28 of 156 Roosevelt street, in police court today on charges of driving without an operator's license, without a registration and with fm- proper markers, it developed that Gill had purchased a car from Wal- } ter Zak of 465 South street and the | latter had not turned in the mark- crs to the state motor vehicle de- partment. Prosecuting Woods informed Judge Hungerford that he would fssue a warrant for Zak's arrest, and Gill's case was con- tinued until Aftey o O Zak. Gill has been in Connecticut less than two weeks and last evening about 5:15 o'clock, as he was driving on Stanley street, the glass fell out of one of the headlights of his car and Officer Wagner noticed his fail- ure to remove it from the pavement. Following him to North street, the officer asked him for his registra- tion and license. Then it was learn- ed that the registration was in the name of Zak and the markers had been issued when Zak owned the car. Gill had a New York license. $25 For Reckless Driving Albert Boutin, aged 20, of 91 Booth street, who was in court yes- terday morning on charges of reck- less drivng and failing to stop when ordered by a policeman, was fined 350 and costs for reckless drlving, with $25 remltted.

Crosby, flood dic- tator of Mississippl and the financial committee in that state on rehabili- tation. “ A $1,000.000 finan® corporation for rehabilitation of farmers in the flooded delta of Mississippi was formed at Jackson, Miss., ypsterduy and began functioning today. More than $350,000 in stock of the cor- poration subscribed yesterday and the remainder was expected to be subscried In a few days. Similar corporations are to formed in Arkansas and 1l.ouisia Thousands At Work Heroes, unhonored and unsung, 12,000 laborers, their names written only on time books, turned today into the final strctch of a long bat- tle with the Mississippi river.

Vast Sums Spent In the fourth Mississippi river dis- trict, the cost has been approxim- ately $1,700,000, and it must con- tinue at least two more weeks, More than halt a million cubic yards of dirt have been moved by laborers in this district, 199,500 yards being used to top 75 miles of low dykes not yet raised to stand- ard grade: 75,000 yards have been loaded on barges and then thrown on the outside of weak spots and | where scepage was heavy to “blank- ct” the levees, and 312,000 cubic yards have been sacked for revets ment work where wave wash has cut into the dykes. Practically all of this dirt has been handled by hand shovels being used to unload barges, and load wheel barrows. A flect consisting of nine tugs, ten steamboats, 27 quarter bosts, 120 barges, four floating levee building | machines that scoop up five cubic vards of dirt at a_time; six floating | derricks and two floating locomotive cranes in addition to 25 automobiles | and 250 trucks have been employed in the work.

Commander Lavender Tells of NC-3 Trip Washington, May 11 (UP)—Men lost at sca with only a filmsy, help- less airplane bulk betwcen them and a watery death think and do strange things, according to Lieut. Commander Robert A. Lavender, who knows from experience. of Captains| Nungesser and Coli today stirred odd and vivid memories in Laven- der's mind — of 53 hours' drifting in a turbulent high sea on the NC-3 plane which in 1919 tried :nd failed to cross the Atlantic. With five aboard, the ship lost bearings, alighted 200 miles from the Azores, was damaged so it! could not rise, and finally drifted | to the very island that was to have been Its midway stopping point. There was potential tragedy in those 53 hours, mixed with the in- cvitable high comedy in recollec- tion. “We all knew,” Lavender said, “that chances were very slim we would pull through.” A much-chewed wad of gum was a “chaser” used by Lavender to| take away the taste of the radia- tor water they drank — and was planted on a bulkhead between times. A half cake of chocolate was the last of his rations, over which he deliberated on the second night, and then saved for a possible to- morrow. He found a crust of bread, thrown aside at the| flight's start, in the greasy bottom of the ship, dried it out and found | it the best bread he ever ate. | Words one of the men wald| would come from his wife's lips I | he ever returned were the laconi | “I told you so.” | Everybody worked during those |trying hours.

It was a religion in which the Armenian had found | the true faith, the aim of life,’and with which he had identificd his destiny. Loyalty to Christ was above everything, above loyalty to king, to one’s national interests, salvation. It was above life itself. “The establishment of Christian- ity in Armenia brought out the need for the translation of the Bible to the Armenian language and result- ed in the invention of the Armenian | alphabet and a consequent prolific | literary activity that gave students of classic to the literature and ;anclem history, a rich amount of | source materlals, many of which perished, or were destroyed by the Turks or others, ignorant of the | value of anclent manuscripts, Were | they extant today, they would have thrown great light upon the life and customs and bellefs of the classic | times.

Experts agre> that the White Bird might fare badly if | forced down early, befors the tre- mendous load was lightened by the consumption of gasoline. It is co! sidered that the plane would have sunk if it landed in the English channel or off Ireland. The experts say it would be impossible in that case to empty the tanks quickly enough with the small pump to make them buoyant. If, however, the plane was forced down halfway across the Atlantic the consumption of fuel would have partly emptied the tanks and kept the machine afloat. 3 Plerre Levasseur, builder of the White Bird, says he advised the avi ators to jump with their parachutes if the plane was likely to descend nose-first, as it might burst into flames. The greatest hope is that some of the early reports of the aighting of the plane off Newfoundland may have been correct and thut it is still floating on the Atlantic, awaiting escue, or that it has come down at some remote spot along the coast.
