London, July 9 (UP)—With the Fokker airplane, from which Cap- tain Alfred Loewenstein waa report- ed to have disappeared, ordered un- der guard at the Croydon airdrome by the air ministry the greatest in- terest continued today the disap- pearance of the Belgian financier. Air tests tending to prove that it was impossible for the door of the Fokker to have been opened while the plane was in flight plus declara- tions of occupants of the plane that Loewenstein was aboard when the flight started, caused interest in the strange case to be increased. Financial efrcles particularly were interested in the officlal investiga- tion into the affalr now under way in Belgium. They pointed out there were many legal complications should the inquiry fail to bring proof of Loewenstein's death. According to the Belglan law un- less death is proved five years must elapse before heirs would be per- mitted full. possession of the estate. This might involve many of Loewen- stein’s great holdings in years of liti- gation and perhaps have some effect on the markets of principal Euro- pean money capitals. The I'rankfort Gazette today es- |timated that Loewenstein's fortun was between $45,000,000 and $50,- 000,000 and that his labilities were about half that amount. The Daily Mail today produced the facsimile of two writing pads on the pages of which allegedly were found evidence that Loewenstein had heen attempting to arrange a loan of 10,- 000,000—whether pounds or dollars could not be deciphe! The pads were found in the airplane, the newspaper said, and although the handwriting was not that of the financier the paper pointed out the [ notes might have been dietated RECORDS ARE BROKEN |Three World's Track and Ficld Marks Are Shattered by Athletes in Various Heets.

Don't Make aToy By RUTH BRITTAIN | | | Much of the nervousness in older children can be traced to the over- stimulation during infancy, caused by regarding baby as a sort of ani- mated toy for the amusement of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be played with, but not for more than a quarter of an hour to |an hour daily. Beyond that, being { handled, tickled, caused to laugh or jeven scream, will sometimes result !in_vomiting, and invariably causes irritability, crying or slecplessness. | Fretfulness, crying and sleepless- {ness from this cause can casily be voided by treating baby with more |consideration. but when you just can’t sce what is making haby rest- |drops of pure, harmless Castoria.

The wholly new Chrysler style creations, now shown for the first time, represent unusual advances over even Chrysler power, speed and efficiency. We belicve that, at their new low prices, they demonstrate that Chrysler engineering, rescarch and manufacturing again have greatly increased the buying power of the dollar when invested - in motor cars. We are confident that all who are even remotely interested in the progress of motor car artistry will find themselves amply repaid by their immediate inspection of these two new Chrysler style achievements.
