Redfern, flying a land plane, seeks to link the Americas by air in a non-stop journey to establish new long distance and endurance records. i He has charted a course for Rio de Janeiro along a route east of the Bahamas, thence over the Caribbean Bea to a point about 56 miles east of Port of Spain on the Isle of Trini- dad. Winging his way along the Bouth American coast, he will head 50 miles east of Georgetown, British Gutana before swinging inland to- ward Macapa, on the northern bank of the Amazon river. Here he will drop a flare to indi- cate whether he will proceed for his destination of Rio, or cut short his flight by heading for Pernambuco, because'of a shortage of fuel or®an- other cause. Brunswick, Ga., Aug. 25 (P—Al- though the young aviator is confident that he “is carrying coals to New- when he expects to reach a Brazilian astle” by packing.so much food kity within 50 hours, Paul R. Red- Cern has stored in his plane enough food to sustain him more than two weeks. In addition, he has included in his atety equipment a rifle, fish hooks, knife, matches and other articles with which he believes he could keep himsel? fairly well fed indefinitely Bhould he be compelled to make a forced landing. He also has a small disttlling apparatus to provide Water. Takes Plenty of Food To sustain Redfern’s appetite dur- Ing the first hours of his flight, Mrs. C. E. Ward, dieticfan has prepared 20 sandwiches, two quarts of coffee, 2 pound of milk chocolate and half & pound of mixed nuts. The coffee was poured into a thermos bottle, but two gallons of water will be karried in an ordinary oil can. It will not be ice water. There will be chicken, ham and Pheese sandwiches with fresh lettuce Bnd celery. Mrs. Ward said Redfern Was very fond of cheese. Showing that he has an appetite different from’ that of most men, the aviator Bsked last night that lettuce and cel- ery be included in his menu. After Redfern had exhausted his Fresh rations, he can turn to his con- rentrated food supply. This includes the following: Twenty-four milk tablets. * Two dozen beef boutllon cubes. Fifteen ounces of raisins. Extra supply of milk chocolate. Extra supply of mixed nuts. One pound of cheese. Two small packages of dates. Mrs. Ward estimated that the con- tentrated food supply shoyld supply Bufficient food for ten days. The to- ounces of malted tal welght of the food is apout five | bounds. Water and coffee scalo at 18% pounds. The food will be packed in a water broof bag which has the virtue also | of being a rain jacket. the threads fro mthe bottom of the bag, Redfern can put it on and to fome emtent escape the chilling rains bt the trepics. Several cases of .22 and .44 cal- Ibre cartridges were in the emer- ency equipment. A short rifle will hoot both. With this weapon Red- fern believes he can protect himself and obtain food. Army “Slum” Old Dish Of Illinois Indians | Springfield, T, Aug. 25. (A— Stew, the old army “slum,” did not criginaté with the white man but was,_a common dish of Illincis In- dians. Georgia Osborne, librarian at the State Historical Library here, says she found the Indian recipe for “slum” in an old history book. Mess sergeants who from time Iimmemorial have been accused of throwing most anything into the stew Kkettle didn’'t have anything on the Indians. “In preparing the meal” re- tounts the history, ‘“the squaw of- ten would throw fish, roots, meat and anything else at hand and edible, into the pot, boil the mixture and put it out for her family to eat.” Another . Indian delicacy, the his- lory said; was fowls bolled with bnly the larger feathers removed. Cleaning up the 180 tons of waste paper and confetti thrown apon the streets during the welcome 5f Colonel Lindbergh cost New York Mty $16,000.

The gist of the secret under- standing has not been divulged, the newspaper adds, declaring that it is doubtful if much definite infor- mation on its contents is available to the officials of the American |government. The newspaper story ret Understand- {18 being discussed behind closed ;doors by officials here with a view to weighing possible consequences. Apparently the advance discus- sions between the British and Jap- anese representatives, the news- paper says, have had reference to reviving the Anglo-Japanese alli- ance of 1911. This alllance was ter- minated at the Washington mnaval ‘conrerence of 1921-22 and a four- | power pact with Great Britain, Japan, France and the United States as signatory powers relating to insular possessions and domin- ons in the Pacific was promulgated under the leadership of the Ameri- can delegation headed by former Secretary of State Charles E. | Hughes.

Evans being away on the treacher- ous ninth green barely missed a 25- foot putt and laid Held a half stymie which he just missed,curling around.

Hancock Rest in Unusual Crypt Roanoke, Va., Aug. 25. (#—DNo- torists passing along the Lee High- way may see on the mountainside, a short distance beyond Elliston, in Montgomery county, Virginia, the marble face of a gigantic tomb, still gleaming white fu the sun light. The tomb, according to records, marks the last resting place of Colonel George Hancock, of the Virginia line in the War for Inde- pendence, aide de camp to Count Pulaski and one-time member of the United States congress. i Some think it queer the famous old warrior should select a spot high on the side of the mountain, ibut it is said Colonel Hancock was huried in an erect position, facing the fertile fields of “Happy Valley.” One story has it that when the colonel returned from the war, he found his plantation had not been well tended. Of no uncertain tem- perament, he ordered all his slaves | away and in selecting his grave on the mountain gave orders he should | be interred in an errect position, his face toward the valley. Then let any slave dare approach the flelds again, Another legend says Colonel | { Hancock was buried standing up, !0 he could always be on the watch | lof slaves at work and keep them | from loafing. Artesian Wells Supply Water to Farm Crops Portales. New Mexico., Aug. 25 () —Trrigation is the least of the trou- ble of farmers in this region. More than 200 artestan wells provide motsture for crops. A shallow water “shect” under- !lies the Portales valley and pro- vides water for the wells, Some | of them flow naturally arfh some | ! have to be pumped. One of the | | wells has been pumping for 16 vears and shows no sign of weak- | ening. By conserving the water from the wells and using scientitic meth- lods in their farming, the ranchers { have been able to produce sturdy {crops on land that once was known as the heart of the “Great Ameri- can desert.” 442 543 545—36 i | LIGHTNING KILLS FISH St. Paul, Minn,, Aug. »— Hundreds of young bass were killed at the Minnesota state fish hatcher- {ies during a severe clectrical storm.

WHO'S WHO IN THE UNDERWORLD LISTS New York State Getting Record of Crooks Albany, N. Y. Aug. 25 (A—Wo- men arc proving able assistants to the Sherlock Holmes of New York state, The bureau of criminal identifica- tion, of the New York state depart- ment of correction is “manned” by women, and a woman is chicf of the bureau.’ Miss Clara L, Parsons, head of the bureau since 1914, was at one time a clerk in the same department. Under her supervision, women's hands keep classified more than 300,000 cards that tell all there'is to know about the “Who's Who" of the underworld, and here women's eyes look through microscopes at the prints fingers make on clean paper. Miss Parsons does not know why the bureau relies entirely on women to do its work, but she does know they are as capable as men. She admits some phases of criminal in- vestigation are best left to men. Proud of the efficient way in which her office assists police de- partments in checking upon crimi- | nals who are arrested in the Empire State, Miss Parsous says: “Quite often criminals with rec- ords in other states try to cover up their delinquencies and evade severé punishments waiting for them as second, third and fourth offenders. But our check-up usually reveals their history.” Miss Parsons favors universal finger printing. This practice, she believes, would make it easy to identity anybody anywhere. The possibility of mistaken identity, she explains, is only one in G4 trillions.

Pig iron pro- duction has so far been two per cent below that of 1926, and textile and automobile production is also less. In general there has been a slight de- cling in factory employment, am8unting to about 2 per cent dur- ing July, under July, 1926. “However, in the employment matter, there has been a steady in- crease in the number of workers de- manded by services as compared with factories, and there is not so much regular reporting as to the volume of employment in the serv- ice category. We know, for in- stance, that the development of auto- motive transport has brought about an immense increase during recent years in the number of persons em- ployed in garage operation and re- pairs. “Money rates are now low, and the effect of cheap money on enterprise is almost invariably a tendency to- wards stimulation. The harvest in the grain country is passing through a somewhat critical period at the moment, especially with reference to corn, but if frost is delayed for a matter of ten days or so over the I{corn growing area there will be a bountiful crop. On the whole the outlook is for a maintenance of gen- eral buying power.” LEIST ESTATE $6,200 The estate of the late Permin | Letst 1s valued at $6,200.31, acord- {ing to an inventory filed today in probate court.

Previous- | HEAVY BUYING IS MARKET FEATURE General Motors Gommon Soars Seven Points to Record New York, Aug. 25 (P—Heavy buying of General Motors common ; stock, which soared 7 points to a new high record at 246, a gain of 18 points within the last week, overshadowed all other develop- ments in today’'s stock market. Pools lifted about a score other issues to new peak prices, but considerable ir- regularity developed in the general list, due to the extensive shifting of speculative accounts. Despite reports of another sharp advance in brokerage loans this week, call money was in plentiful supply at the renewal figure of 3% per cent. Hope is heldsgut in some | speculative quarters for a further | reduction in rediscount rate of the | New York Federal Reserve bank, di- | rectors of which meet after the close | of the market. | The rise in General Motors pre- | sumably was in further reflection of | the optimistic forecasts of that | corporation’s business by William C. | Durant, prominent stock market op- erator, and Louis G. Kauman, a di- | rector. Under the cover of this | strength, however, heavy selling took place in other industrials, par- ticularly in the steel, copper, oil, mercantile and public utility groups. Famous Players broke 4 points. Commercfal Solvents B (old stock) soared 13 points to a record high at 3631 and the new stock, which was admitted to trading to- | day, ran up from 176% to 184. Bon Ami jumped 6 points and Dupont, Wright Aeronautical, Reynolds To- bacco B and National Tea sold 4 to 6 points higher. High grade rails moved upward under the leadership of Atchison on’ prediction of a sharp upturn in freight traffic in the next six weeks. The July report of the Southern Pacific showed a decrease of §1,- 348,204 in net operating income as compared with the same month last year. General Motors old and new stocks quickly sold up to new high prices at 239 5-8 and 121 1-2 respectively. U. 8. Steel, however, was heavy. Cautious pessimism in the current reviews of the steel trade evidently created a feeling of hesitancy. Rail- road shares in some instances moved ahead in the face of relatively poor current earnings reports and con- tinued decline in freight traffic from last year's figures. Midland Steel Products quickly soared 6 points to a new high above 140. Mackay Companies went up 3 points to a new peak on expansion plans, but Radio Corporation fell back 2 points. American Snuff jumped 3 points in the first half hour. Point or better gains were recorded by New York Central, St. Louls & San Francisco, National Biscuit, Interna- tional Agricultural Chemical and others soon after the opening. Oils appeared little affected by additional cuts yesterday in Crude Oil prices. Houston Oil quickly gained about a | point. | A selling flurry which drove Gen- | cral Motors down 2 points from its | high level and also weakened Bald- win, DuPont, Bethlehem Steel, Gen- eral Electric, Case Threshing Ma- chine, Woolworth, International Har- vester and Paramount Famous, sub- sided to a large extent when a fur- jous bullish demonstration com- menced in the high priced railroads. Atchison sold at 200 for the first time and Union Pacific, Norfolk & Western, Chesapeake & Ohio, Dela- ware & Hudson, Atlantic Coast Line and Lehigh Valley rose 1 to 2. General Motors snapped back to 240 5-8, a new peak. The rate for standing call loans was maintained at 3% per cent. Prices ranged fractionally higher at the opening of today's stock market. Postum stood out with a gain of 2 1-2 on the initial sales. THE MARKET AT 2:30 P. M. (Furnished by Putnam & Co.)
