The feat is hailed in avia tion circles as a device which means "absolute safety" for pas senger aircraft. The device is the invention of Charles Vroderick, of San Fran cisio. The device consists of one parachute 72 feet in diameter capable of sustaining an airplane and small chute which acts as a pilot for the larger one. The little chute is used to draw the big one out of the plane. In the experiment, E. J. Mc Kern, veteran San Francisco pilot, took a war-time Jenny plane, condemned as unserviceable, 4, 000 feet up into the air, shut off the motor and put the safety de vice into action. McKeon tossed the small chute overboard. It opened at once and a short time later pulled the big parachute out at 1,500 feet and the drop was checked. The airplane, pilot and para chute floated gently to the earth and the plane was only slightly damaged in landing. TEXAS G. 0, P.

The conven tion spilt under the Impetus of a heated wrangle between the Hoover and anti-Hoover factions. The Hoover faction asked for an instructed delegation and the anti-Hoover faction asked for un instructed delegates. Wild dis order preceded the split and was marked by smashing the glass door of the City Hall Auditorium and the arrest and release of State Committee Chairman C. C. Littleton. Advocates of an uninstructed delegation marched out and held their own convention. Both sides claim that the Na tional Committee will recognize 1 their delegates. The Hoover meeting proceeded to name 26 delegates while the other faction claimed the con vention could name only four as 1 22 had been chosen at meetings of the delegates from Congres sional districts.

Va., May 2.! —Went Virginia's contests for presidential preference will lie do puled at the state primary May 29.

Secretary of Commerce Hoover igain will come to grips with a ‘favorite son,” entering the Re publican primary against Senator liiy D. Goff. Senator James A. Reed of Mis muri and Gov. Alfred E. Smith of, 'Jew York will compete for the indorsement of the Democratic ilectors. Of prime interest also in the itate Is the three-cornered con est for the Republican senatorial lominatlon, with Gov. Howard M. lore, Dr. Henry D. Hatfield, a ormer governor, and former Rep. Renjamin L. Rosenbloom seeking hat office. Senator M. M. Neely, Democrat, is unopposed for the party nomination for re-election. As leader of the Smith forces n West Virginia. C. W. Osenton, Democratic national committee nan, entered the name of the Siew York executive in the prl nary as a defensive move to pro ect a slate of delegates pledged o his candidacy. While popular •hoice in West Virginia is not pinding upon the delegates, Osen on said it carried a moral obliga ion, but that with Smith an ac ive candidate, delegates for him vould be “doubly protected.” The iteed forces did not file a slate >f delegates pledged to the MIs louri senator. Filing of the Smith and Reed ■ertificates developed a move nent for an unpledged Demo cratic delegation, and a score of candidates for delegate filed intendments to their declarations Rating it was "obvious" that vo ers will have no “fair opportuni y” to express their real choice or president, and announcing they vould not feel lionuii to support inyone “who might appear to be he popular choice.” Spokesmen or those delegates said their at itude was anti-Smith rather than n favor of any particular candi late. Governor Gore joined the presi lentlal and senatorial contests by endorsing the Hoover candidacy against that of Senator Goff. The governor, a former secretary of agriculture, said endorsement hy the West Virginia voters of the commerce socre iry would bo "very pleasing" to him. Both parties will nominate elec tive state officers. More than 400 candidates are in the field for national and state offices, includ ing delegates and members of party committees.

It took several weeks of practice to learn lo walk in them—just as It took diligent practice for her to learn to walk like a hoy in "Reverly of firau staik.” Then, she had to have skates fastened to them, and skate in the frozen canal in the winter scenes in the new spec tacle. in which she and several hundred gaily-attired Hollanders appear in a winter festival. The new story, staged on a spectacular scale at the Metro Goldwyii-Mayer studios, is an adaptation of the famous Victor Herbert stage hit of the same name. Owen Moore plays the leading male role. n-:-:-: “IS ZAT SO” IS AT COLISEUM TOMORROW a-v It Is not often that an entire motion picture studio “gets all smokeil up” over a little matter of fisticuffs, but the fact remains that fleorge O'Drien played to a packed house when he fought Jack Herrick, Jimmy Dime and other legitimate representatives of the Cauliflower Alley in the battle sequences of the James Gleason-Riehard Taber comedy, “Is Zat So?"

The, circumstance that work bus prog ressed faster than was oxppctedi and that the bridge will be com-! pleted ten months ahead of time is the occasion for issuing the monograph. Alaskans like to think that this fast and efficient work is the re-', suit of the connection or James L. Fozard with the building com 1 panics. Mr. Fozard is vio'presD dent and general manager of the: Detroit International Bridge Com pany and secretary-treasurer and. a director of the Canadian Transit Company. The Ambassadc Bridge will cost $25,000,001) when completed and contain the longest span of any suspension bridge in the world. The principal span will be 152 feet above the surface of Detroit River and 1,850 feet in length. These dimensions are larger than those of the Brooklyn Bridge, which is 135 feet above the water with a span 1,595 feet in length, or than those of the I’hlladelphia-Camden bridge, 135 feet above the water and a span of 1,750 feet in length. The Am bassador Bridge will have no railroad tracks but will be for automobiles and foot passengers. There will be a single roadway 47 feet In width and a sidewalk eight feet wide. Tho main tow ers will he the lieighth of a 22 Ftory building with 14 stories un der ground and eight stories above. The bridge structure will be 7.400 feet in length and from entrance to exit the distance is 9,000 feet. Actual construction was begin. May 7. 1927, shortly after the De troit International Bridge Com pany was organized and took over the American Transit Company find procured all of the stock of -Canadian Transit ConipShy. Tne two Companies have identi cal boards of directors. The authorization for the con struction of the. Ambassador Bridge is based upon an act of congress approved March 4, 1921, and an act of the Canadian Parlia ment, approved May 3, 1921. The lights under these, acts were no quired by the building company oarly last year. Fozard Is Alaskan James L. Fozard, vice-president and general manager of the De t Seattle Fruit Produce Co.

Thero is no reason in the world why the Federal Ann Loan Act should not be extended to Alaska. It is likely that if would not be used much up here but every reason for such a law in other sections of the country applies to Alaska. Tiie farmers of Alaska, few though they are, ought to have the opportunity to get money at the low rates provitied under this Act if farmers elsewhere have the right. Delegate Sulzer endeavored to have the Act extended to Alaska when he represented the Territory in Congress, but at that time Con gress was thinking a lot more about war meas ures than it was of Alaskan development, and Mr. Sulzer found it impossible to get action in the matter. That was ten years ago. The war long since terminated, and Alaska farms have become more numerous and larger and the demand for money for farm development is greater now than ever before. DR. WILSON ON CHURCH IN POLITICS. Dr. Clarence True Wilson declared at Kansas City that the only way to take the churches out of politics this year is for both political parties “to nominate a dry who will carry out the Prohibition plan.” He continued: “If any party nominates a known nullificationist, or a wet, we shall consider it our Christian duty to defeat him for office and elect a dry, and there are enough of us to do it.” The defect in Dr. Wilson's plan is that he does not speak for the laymen in the church and he does not by any means speak for all of the clergy. Digger men in the Methodist Episco pal Church than Dr. Wilson are supporting (lov. Smith for the Presidency. That they have a large part of the church membership with them is being proved by the returns from primaries throughout the country. It was Dr. Wilson who a few years ago said there had been too much talk in the United States about the separation of church and State. However, when the membership of his church becomes stirred up, Dr. Wilson is likely to find that he is authorized to speak only for those who agree wit|t him and not for the church as a whole. HAYWOODS LONELY EXILE IS OVER. Dig Dill Haywood, one of the philosophers who thought the way to glory on earth for those who wallowed in the mire of labor was to kill off those who had passed successfully over the course, spent his last years in Soviet Itussin, wishing that he was not an outlaw in America so that lie might return. Haywood jumped bail bonds in the United States and found his way to Russia, where he, upon landing, kissed the soil and thanked God that he was in a free country. He remained there, because he dared not return to this country, and learned that after all the old U. S. A. is the best Nation on earth for pool men to call home. Well, whatever might have been his offense against his fellow men, ho paid the penalty during his long and lonesome exile He found that the way of the transgressoi is hard, and came to know' through sad exper ience that the safest way to happiness is to plaj the game according to the rules. A QUESTION OF SELF-GOVERNMENT

There is no political issue anywhere that involves the question as to whether the South ii going to be wet or dry. So far as concern! those who favor the modification or repeal o: the Volstead Act, or those who would repeal 01 modify the Eighteenth Amendment, the South cat remain as dry us she desires to be. No one want! to make her wet if she chooses to be dry. Thi political issue is whether or not the South wil continue to insist that unenforceable dry lawi shall remain on statute books for those State; where the people do not like the Volsteat Act. As a matter of fact the real issue createt by the Prohibition question is one of self-govern ment. The conduct of the people of the Unitec States cannot be controlled by a single centra government and give us government by the peo pie. States with a combined population of mori than 36,000,000 have had referendums on the wet and dry question within the last two years in which nearly 8,000,000 votes were cast, we and dry, and the wets were victorious by a scor of 6,353,954 to 2,608,969 for the drys. Penn sylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Connecticui Rhode Island and Delaware with a combine population in excess of 17,500,000, not include in these figures, have also repeatedly demon strated that they do not crave Prohibition. 1 a wet and dry congest in Ohio, population 6 710,000, less than a year ago the wets were over whelmingly successful. Thus it will be seen that we have a fairly accurate line-up of the senti ment of sixteen States, having half of the popu lation of the I'nited States—New York, Massa chusetts, Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri, California, Montana, Colorado, Nevada, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware and Ohio—and the sentiment in them is at least two to fine against the Volstead Act. New, the question in the South is plainly, not whether or not she wishes to be dry, but whether or not- she wants to reach beyond the borders of the Southern States and force more than half of the people of the country that are opposed to Prohibition to he dry. The drys in the South not only want to govern their own region but they insist upon governing the rest of the country. Yet we hear of dry states men down in Dixie tying to argue that they favor State Rights. The Oregon Daily Journal refers to Edgar J. Adams who has been nominated for Judge in the First Division as a contractor and builder. There is not a word in a sketch of him to indi cate that lie is a lawyer. Perhaps they want to send him up here to build the capital. Prob ably wanted to kill two birds with one stone— or salary. North Carolina supporters of Gov. Smith de i lsro that a slush fund in the Interest of the New York Executive in that State is not neces iry for the people there are for him. They expect to elect a Smith delegation. Simplifying the Calendar. (Enginei ring and Mining Journal.) With the increased complexity of modern lite and the competitive struggle that exists for supremacy if not for existence comes a tendency to avoid what is unnecessary and to simplify what is complicated. Many countries still operate under the handicap of an archaic system of weights and measures and will de.ubtless continue to do so until the egineer and the scientists take a hand in national reform movements. The sim plification of currency denomination by the adop tion of the metric system has saved the Americas many millions of dollars in useles labor and futile calculation, to say nothing of the advantage of mechanized computation and mathematic accuracy in result. To Mr. George Eastman the world will owe a debt of gratitude for sponsoring a practicable scheme for the reform of the calendar, originally proposed by Mr. M. B. Cotsworth. The defects in the present system are obvious and acknowl edged. The International Fixed Calendar will have 1.1 months, each of 28 days, with an eighth day “Year-Sunday” added to the last week in each year. Tile simplified calendar has already met with wide acceptance, and the movement has diaclosed, incidentally, that a large number of firms and organizations have been using the 28-day month for several years. The advantages of the sub stitute system are legion; the disadvantages, ap parently none. However much any change from acetumed routine and age-long habit is unpopular in certain quarters, it should he recognized that the present calendar system is provocative of i complication, unnecessary labor and avoidable waste, inhibiting a proper control and encourag ing a condition that is detrimental to efficient production, scientific comparison and account ancy. Eventually the change will lie made. Why not now? Engineering and Mining Journal is in wholehearted agreement with the proposal, and urges those of its readers who are interested to write for the information that is available for distribution from the offices of Mr. George Eastman, 343 State St., Rochester, N. Y. Dempsey’s Earnings. (New York World.) The myth of (he fabulous sums received by a champion fighter received something of a jolt last week when Jack Dempsey brought Ills in come-tax report Into court as an exhibit in the suit brought against him by Jack Kearns. This report shows that Dempsey and Kearns in their banner year of 1923 took in between them $74 7,952. nut this was subject to tremendous deductions. There was another little matter of 138,232 lost on bad loans and investments. There was another little matter of $2,310 lost in oper ating hotel and apartment properties in Los An geles. There were the expenses of the Gibbons tight, which ran to $108,417. There were the expenses of the Firpo light, which ran to $87, 024. These items and others like them reduced the gross to a net of $499,648, of which Demp sey's share was $249,824. One is reminded of an article in Liberty some time ago which told of the actual earnings of Gertrude Ederle. At that time she had earned as a result of her Channel swim a gross of $G4, 000. But that too was subject to many deduc tions, as follows: D. F. Malone (one-sixth) .$10,666 Pop (one-sixth) 10,666 Booking agent r/400 Tank for vaudeville act 6,000 Traveling expenses 2,700 Press agent, manager,, assistant mermaids, etc. This left Trudie pleased with. $44,207 $19,793 to do what sht It all seems to boil down to the axiom fre q“entl>' Promulgated by J.

That almost tells the story of last night’s affray at the City park. The Miners won because they played better ball, hit bet ter in the pinches and took ad vantage of the Veterans' miucues which were too numerous for comfort to any hard working pitcher. Encugh in First In fact, the Miners chalked up enough simon pure Santa, Claus runs in the opening stanza to win with, and those they made after that inning were totally unneces sary. Cunningham, who started for the Vets, didn't get the sup port to which he was entitled, but he was hit hard enough later to have been disastrous had not misfortune already befallen his club. Robertson, a new player, heav ed steady ball for the Miners and was given almost perfect sup port. He got two sweet hits, got on base every time he was at bat, and scored three times. In addition, he held the Vets to five bingles which netted them three earned runs, and struck out five men. Cunningham yielded hits and was scored on 10 times in the three and, two-thirds innings he occupied the mound. Manning, relieving him, held the Miners hitless, fanned five men, but was scored on once when Heinke dropped a fly in left field allow ing a runner to score from third. How They Scored The Vets opened hostilities without delay. With two men dead, Thomas doubled to left cen ter and scored on Eldred’s time ly single. The Miners came back to score four runs on a lone hit, three er rors, a walk and a fielder’s choice. With one away, Hollmann drop ped a Texas leaguer in short left and advanced to second on a wild pitch. Robertson hopped a hot one past the box that Cunning ham knocked down and Eldred retrieved hut threw wild to first. Hollmann scoring and Robertson anchoring at first. J. McCloskey shot one at Cunningham who fielded perfectly and chucked to centerfield trying to nab Robert son at second. The latter scored. McCloskey, racing for third, was safe when Grummett dropped Cunningham’s throw. Big Mac walked and stole second. Grum mett missed Habernich’s grass cutter and McCloskey and Big Mac scored. In the third the Miners added two more. Robertson tripled to left center and scored on Jimmy MeCloskey’s single through sec ond. Jimmy stole second and come home on two hit and run plays. A single, a walk and a two bagger netted the Vets two runs in the fourth which were the last they made. Eldred singled, his second hit in as many times at bat. He advanced to second on Bob Keaton's free ride to first. Heinke smashed out a drive into left field for two bags scoring Eldred and Keaton. After that Robertson held the Vets hitless. Three runners got on the paths, one on an error and two through free transportation but they never got farther than second base. Five in Fourth The Miners put the game in re frigeration in the fourth, mixing four hits, two errors and a walk for five runs. Gene McCloskey started the inning by whiffing. Benson singled to right and went to third when Midkiff let the ball get by him. Little Mac singled, scoring Benson, and then stole second and third. Hollmann fouled out to Grummett. Robert son singled to left, scoring Little Mac, and took second on a slow throw-in. Jimmy McCloskey walk ed. Big Mac hit for two bases to left center and Robertson and McCloskey scored. Manning re placed Cunningham on the mound. Habernich filed to left and Heink: dropped the ball, Big Mac scor ing. From then on, the Miners were turned back by Manning. Box Score and Summary Amer.

S INDIANAPOLIS, May 23 The American Legion is well started on its move to save the American boy for the sandlots. The effort sails under the title of the National Junior Baseball Tournament and the Legion start ed it as part of its Americaniza tion project. After the announcement, organ ized baseball and its luminaries swung behind ihe project and now the Legionnaires are getting the boys out from coast to coast. The two major leagues have underwritten the project to the extent of $50,000 Local Legion posts will organize sandlot teams. At various times there will be regional and sectional tourna ments and eventually a "world series.” Babe Ruth, Lou Clehrig. Grover Alexander, Rogers Hornsby, Harry Heiimunn. Tris Speaker, Ty Cobb and Eddie Collins all have given the movement a grand sendoff. "It's a great thing,” said the Babe. "It will build the kids up physically and keep them out of trouble." Lou Gehrig said: “Baseball does more to build up character than any other sport 1 have play ed." Old Grover Cleveland Alexan der: “When I was a boy, a ver itable hayseed, I loved baseba'l better than anything else in the world and when I received my first offer to play professionally, I thought the club that wanted me was crazy to pay me for something I was willing to do for nothing.” Ty Cobh: “It’s going to make ’em better citizens." Eddie Collins: “Baseball is a great, melting pot that promotes Americanism.” As a further evidence of faith in the junior diamond project, the major league teams have agreed that the world series contestants will entertain the champions of the junior tournament at the regular series games. Teams entered in the Legioh tourney will be made up of play ers who will not have reached their seventeenth birthdays by January 1, 1929.
