m PASTOR ASKS AID 10 TRACK VANDALS Urges Go-operation With Police| in Cemetery Desecration « Giving formal notice to the par- fshioners, of the operations of van- dals in the old Catholic cemctery ' on Beatty strect last Thursday eve- ning, Rev. Matthew J. ‘Traynor, pastor of St. Mary's church, in a statement read at all the masses yesterday morning, expressed sym- pathy to the owners of burial lots whose monuments and grave mark- | ers were damaged, and requested that everything possible be done.to assist the police in bringing to jus- tice those responsible for the whole. sale dgmage. The statement gave assurance that the police depart- ment has promised to leave nothing undone that might lead to the ap- prehension of the vandals. Father Traynor made of the inci- ! dent to explain why comparatively littte work- has been done in the cemetery to improve its appearance. ‘The grounds were improperly laid out in the beginning, he said, and very few parishioners have tak- | en the - trouble of marking the boundaries of the burial lots. How ever, an iron gate has been installed at Beatty street entrance and an amiesite approach built, in addition | to the erection of a fence the place. Other improveme: contemplated. Iather Traynor gave noti the statement, that in the the law prohibiting trespassing on the cemetery grounds will be strict- 1y enforced, Children who have made a practice of playing about the cemetery will not be allowed in- side the fence for this purpose hereafter. ' The investigation into the vandal- {sm has brought the police no near- er the st ion of the gase toda than they were last week. There ap- pears to be no clue on which to work and nothing has developed to fix the time the wreckage was made except that the carctaker was at the ccmetery at 4:30 Thursday after- noon and the smashed -monuments were found the next forenoon. THREE PLANES 1 about ADVISED TO WAIT' (Continued From First Page) relatives an opportunity to witness the takeoff. Mrs. Byrd and her sons, Governor Harry F. Byrd and Thomas B. Byrd, are cxpected to go to New York for the event. Mineola, N. Y. May 16 (P —! Chances of any one of the three Now York to Paris airplanes getting away from Roosevelt field tomorrow scemed remote today, as unfavorable weather showed an obstinacy dis ssing to the flyers, anxious to be cay on the long-long trail across the Atlantic. Forecaster Starr of the New York weather bureau said shortly after 10 ock that conditions today were 1ot a bit better than.they had been for the last few days. It was hoped that Wednesday morning would bring the first opportunity to hop. Work on the Byrd plane went steadily forward and the three- motored craft probably will be ready to start with the two single-motored monoplanes. Chanmberlin and Ber- taud, with an amicable agreement reached with the sponsors of their | fiight, took on new enthusiasm and were camping at the bit, ready to take to the air and leave dull care | on the ground. Captain Charles Lindbergh, lone horseman of the air, while waiting for the weather to clear in mid- Atlantic, looked at reports with | dubious eyes. The Missourl flyer goes it alone throughout and he can leave when the spirit and weather | reports move him. He has made no predictions of when that will be, contenting himself with the state- ment that he will not deliberately fiy into bad weather. Captain Lindbergh motored into New York today, to obtain a passport at the customs house. The American Trans-Oceanic Co., sponsors of the Byrd flight, h snnounced that Commander Byrd and his two colleagues will go “at the right time.” The start of the flight of the Columbia, its owners say, is entircly subject to the whims weather condition.

Byrd's America “and Charles “Lucky” Lindbergh's Spirit of St. Louis arose as a result of a dispute batween the two fliers and Charles ! A. Levine, chief backer of their ]mght. over contract terms. Given New Contract | The discussion was finally settled, | however, by substitution of & new ! contract that indicated a complete victory for the aviators. They re- ceived assurance of protection for their wives in case of mishap, and | guarantee of all the money rewards, aid to total upwards of $100.00 {offered if they negotiate the New York-Paris non-stop flight. The aviators were said to have signed a contract whereby they would surrender 50 per cent of the | cash rewards to the Columbia Air- craft Corporation, sponsors of the flight, but the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, which has offered a $15 000 prize to Bellanca crew if they make the hop successtully, objected i 1o this arrangement. and demanded the aviators receive all monetary rewards in full. The aviators also demanded somo jons be made for their wives in case the flight should end n tragedy and in the new contract a financial consideration was arranged for them. The amount was not an- nounced. No Signs of Clearing Heavy fogs and winds over the greater portion cf the mid-Atlantic with no signs of clearing, continue to be reccived by the fliers. A flight within the next 24 hours was called unadvisable by the bureau. A rumor that Lingbergh planned ! a “surpris” hop-off at 3 o'clock th morning caused more than 500 per- sons to crowd about the hangar at | Curtiss field at that hour, but the | “boy aviator” was sound asleep at his hotel in Garden City, three miles | away.
