LINDBURGH AT TELA ON AIR NAIL FLIGHT (Continued from First Page) Tela and then to continue in & di- rect flight to Managua, capital of Nicaragna, where he will spend the night. At Managua there is an aviation station established by the American marine forces there. Heads for Managus Belize, British Honduras, Feb. § M—Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, starting the second lap of his inaug- ural air malil flight to Panama, hop- ped oft from Belize at 9:10 o'clock this morning, eastern standard time. The famous airman, who celebrat- ed his 27th birthday yesterday in business-like fashion by making the first lap from Miami, headed for Tela, Honduras, en route to Man- agua, Nicaragua, where he will spend the night. Today's flight will carry the colonel across the Gulf of Honduras to the Honduran coast from Tela, straight across Honduran and Nic- araguan mountains to Managua. When the colonel flew across north- orn Nlcaragua last year, there was speculation as to whether he would become the target of Nicaraguan rebels then in the fleld, but this year the area is qulet, The route .ich the airman will cover today totals about 500 miles over sea and mountains. During his stay here yesterday Colonel Lindbergh, who s well known in Belize where he stopped last year on his famous good will flight to Central America, was feted cordially despite his desire to make his trip purely a business affair. Flies Over Belise In the afternoon Col. Lindbergh inade a short flight over Belize with members of their suite. His chief object was to study the site of a future landing field from the air. He expressed satisfaction with the plans, but criticized the present ramp which he regards as too nar- row. In bringing his plane to rest on this ramp yesterday the wheels ran into the soft mud. It was neces- sary to drag the plane out with a tractor. The American alrman was espe- cially pleased with the enthusiastic tielp given in digging the wheels out of the mud and the expeditious way in which she was righted. After an at home last evening, B. Melhado, presid=nt of the Polo club welcomed the Pan-American air- ways representatives and expressed the wish that negotiations between them and the government would ve a successful termination. Re- ng. Col. Lindbergh said he be- lieved establishment of the air serv- ice would bring Central and South America nearer to the United States not only commercially, but from triendly point of view. He was| loudly cheered by a throng of people assembled outside of the club | house, Col. John Hambleton, vice-presi- dent of the Pan-American Airways, who is making the trip with Coi. | Lindbergh, said the aim of his com- | vany was to have daly arrivals and ‘eparturcs north and south.

HOOVER 10 DISGARD ‘ECONOMY’ SLOGAN (Continued from First Page) Mississippl and other flood rellef measures, the Great Lakes-St. Law- rence waterway and other proposed waterway routes, and to such dis- | cussed projects as the Umatillo and Columbia river basin projects of the rorthwest. Engineers for Cabinet For this reason, Mr. Hoover will place at the head of the war and in- terlor departments, in which lie jurisdiction of such projects, men who have had engineering training. The engineering activities of the war department will be emphasized far more than hitherto. The president-elect already has of- fered a sample of his purposes in the trip he has arranged for an in- |spection of Florida's Everglades’ |flood problem, in the Okeechobee lake district, northwest of here, | where 2,000 lives were lost last year | when the hurricane whipped up the | waters of the lake to break down in- |adequate levees. This trip recalls his relief activi- ties in the Mississippl river flood of 1927, & problem of greater scope but no more acute. It is very likely that during his administration, Mr. Hoover's keen interest in various constructive pro- jects will inspire numerous such trips for a personal inspection of their progress. Believes in Inspection An engineer by training, he likes to get on the ground and see what is what. The president-olect had only one visitor scheduled for today, Mrs. Bertha D. Baur of Chicago, national committeeman who is staying at Palm Beach. She will call to pay her respects. Mr. Hoover is discussing with Senator Smoot of Utah, a house guest, the problems of tariff revision to be considered at the extra ses- |slon of congress which the veteran ! Utah legislator urges be called April 1 instead of April 15 as planned. The president-elect may go fishing this afternoon in Biscayne Bay. WIDOW OF SPRECKELS IS SUED BY TIFFANY (Continued from First Page) before the case was heard. Met Prince in Paris Mrs. Spreckles then went to Paris, where she met the prince. They were married in July, 1923 at his summer home on the Island o' Prinkipo. She was named in the divorce suit of Princess Chivekear, former wite of King Fuad of Egypt and later the consort of Selim Bey of Egypt. Princess Chakir counter- ed with a damage suit against Prin- cess Chivekear and was awarded $50. In 1927 Prince Chakir and his wife separated and she returned to America. She was divorced by the Turkish nobleman after declaring that she would not return to him. The string of pearls figuring in the Tiffany sult was purchased by the American girl while she was still the wife of Bpreckels. The necklace was stolen from the Prin. cess in London. Tiffany and Com- pany sued Spreckels but the case was thrown out of court after his estate was not liable.

NOTED COUNSEL IS SOUGHT FOR RICE (Continued from First Page) lence Wakeling of New Rochelle and Mrs. Minnie Worden of Yuba City, Cal. Frederick Rice, who greatly | |resembles his brother, Trenor, did |not explain in detail where the de- fense money would come from, but | reference was made to a trust fund left by a maternal grandfather, the {income of which is shared by the four brothers and two sisters. Million Dollar Fund The size of this fund was not mentioned, but report placed 4t close to a million. The grandfather |18 #ald to have been a dancing mas- ter in New York and instructor in that art to the children in many notable familics, the late Colonel | Theodore Roosevelt, as a lad, being | mentioned .as one of his puplls. Mrs. Jackson, the widow, and her daughter, Juanita, continue to re- {main in seclusion and having been instructed by Hickey to retrain from talking about the case, they hardly refer to it, even with close friends. Interest in the two women s now keener than before since Frederick Rice, in his comment, harged against him;: that he was | ‘shiclding a woman” and that he (Frederick) did not intend to have his brother “take a rap if someone eise is guiity.” | Wheeler Also Goes | _When Hickey left, Rowe H. |Wheeler went with hifn. In the many big cases which the detective | has handled for the office of State's Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn it ' has been a custom of his to go away on trips following clues. Last night be- fore checking out at the hotel, Hickey said there were “many odds and ends” which he must look up, | and it was assumed by police that | he has started out on a trip to in- ;;elun!e incidents in Trenor Rice's fe. Hickey may be gone several days as he is known to be interested in | Trenor Rice's experiences in New York, where, on his own statement, he was interested in handling of boxers and followed various lines of sports. Rowe Wheeler, a former member of the state police, like Hickey, had a reputation of being a | patient follower of clues, and while he has only left the case since Wed- | nesday long enough to return hom |to turn the eggs in his incubator, he | |1s known to be deeply interested in | | clearing up the mystery of his long- [time friend, Detective Jackson. Some attention was directed to { Dr. Smith today. He was one of the |first persons who saw the body of Jackson. 1t is understood that the | rst opinion he gave was that Jack- son's death was an act of suicide and | |that he was about to prepare a cer. !tificate to that effect. The mysterious report that Trenor |rest, had made [the Killing of Ja |been clarified. {Leahy of the was credited with making mark to Wheeler but the latter, when asked about it, said: “Ask Hick He also said that it was his opinion that the right man was under arrest, | Grave Draws Crowds | The below freezing weather his shriveled the floral tributes on ackson’s grave in the cemetery | which is still a spot of interest to many townspeople | Mr. King and Mr. Harvey have |@ectined to speak of the case and apparently they are working on what little information was given (them by Rice in their interview er court session yesterday.

BAKER (Professor of Astronomy, University of Illinois) Urbana, Iil, Feb, 5. (M—The eve- ning sky in February is made un- usually brilliant by the presence of |the three brightest planets. At nightfall they are high above the horizon, Venus in the southwest, Jupiter in the south and Mars farth- er east, easily recognized because of its red color. Jupiter and Venus are cloudy planets. The clouds sre in bands parallel to their equators; their tops, which we see, are brililant in the sunlight. [Eaeh planet has a broad band around its equator, where the updraft is great and many clouds form. It is bordered by dark belts of descending cloud- destroying currents. Other bright and dark bands occur in higher lati- tudes. ‘This upside-down view of the weather in other worlds is certainly novel; it is something like the tele- scopic view an inhabitant of an- other plant would have of our weather. He would see the earth as a beited planet and not very much of its surface. We are unable to sce anything at all of the surface of Jupiter and Venus.

Remarkably clear photographs of the clouds which envelope these planets were recently made with the great telescopes of the moun- tain observatories of the Pacific coast. One advantage of & moun- tain top for such photographs is that ultra-violet light {is strongly scattered by the air. Not much of it penetrates to sea level. And this is the very reason that it is #o ef- fective in photographing the suniit | cloud levels of other planets. Weather on Jupiter is quite & different matter. This planet is five times farther from the sun than we are. It is cold there. Recent measurements indicate a ‘empera- ture of 200 degrees below sero at they show that no heat comes from the planet itself. Yet the clouds around Jupiter form and disappear incessantly and, for all we know to the contrary, rain falls.
