Dale Jackson is
Killed while Stunt
ing for Crowds
Falls 3,000 Feet to Death When
Wings Drop Off Plane Air
port Is Closed.
Miami, Fla.. Jan. 6. Dale "Red"
Jackson, daredevil of the skies and
conolder of the world's endurance
flying record, plunged to his death
at municipal airport here today in
view of hundreds of persons who
watched him stunt a small amphi
bian plane three thousand feet above
the ground.
Jackson had just completed an in
side loop when the spectators below,
inspecting final preparations for to
morrow's air races, saw a wing fall
away from the plane. The plane
tipped over to the side and slipped
into its final descent. Then the sec
ond wing fell away.
The crowd watched for Jackson
to jump from the pilot's seat with his
parachute, but he apparently was un
able to get clear.
The wingless plane crashed to the
ground about a mile from the judges
stand. One-wing soared away for sev
eral blocks before landing.
Clutches Parachute C(rd.
An ambulance rushed to the spot
and drivers found Jackson's body in
the pilot's seat. His skull was split
open, but there was no other appar
ent mark on the body. His right hand
clutched 'the ring of his parachute
cord.
Jackson and O'Brien, both of St.
Louis, set a world's endurance record
July 30, 1929, when they brought
the St. Louis Robin to the groun
after 420 hours, 21 minutes and 30
seconds of sustained flight. July 4,
1930, the Hunter brothers set a new
record of 553 hours, 41 minutes and
30 seconds at Chicago.
Airport Is Closed.
Determined to regain their lost
honors, the red-headed Jackson and
O'Brien went into the air again at
St. Louis the next month, and on
August 17. 1931, set a new world's
record of 647 hours. 28 minutes, 30
seconds 31 minutes less than 27
days of sustained flight.
The municipal airport here, site of
the air races and Jackson's takeoff
location as he went into the air for
his stunting today, was closed and
locked as soon as it could be cleared.
Mrs. Sally Jackson, the flier's
widow, came here with him from
their St. Louis home several days ago
as he prepared to enter the air races
for the fourth time. She was not at
the field today. World-Herald.
EXPENSES AEE CRITICIZED
Washington The satire of Sen
ator Harrison of Mississippi sharpen
ed senate demands for governmental
economy as the house practiced it by
cutting out of a bill 1700,000 it had
planned to spend on itself. The Mis
sissippi democrat kept the attention
of the galleries an dthe senators with
his pisuant comments on government
spending: but nobody disputed his
conclusions.
During a lull in the discussion,
Senator Qeorge, Georgia democrat,
introduced a resolution giving the
president authority to consolidate
overlapping government bureaus.
Both democrats and republicans also
aided in lopping $700,000 from the
first deficiency bill, which called for
$125,156,000 as it passed the house.
That was some 10 percent less than
the administration asked. The $700,
000 would have been spent on the
offices of representations.
MAKES EH) FOB CONVENTION
Kansas City Kansas City put in
its bid for the democratic national
convention with an offer of 9150,000
late Thursday after business leaders
had been informed from Washington
an invitation would virtually assure
the city's selection. The offer agreed
upon by chamber of commerce I offi
cials is f 100.000 in cash to be turned
over to the national committee, and
a guarantee of 5 another ; f 50,00 0 to
meet the convention erpenses. If the
gathering is brought ' here, the see
sion will be held in historic conven
tion ball, scent of the 1900 demo
eratic convention and of the 1928
republican convention. .
Big Road Uork
Gets Und2r Way
in Texas Area
Panhandle Reports XIany Undertak
ings Completed in Past Year
Gas Industry Booming
Amarillo. Texas, January 8 With
a 15,000,000 highway paving pro
gram in progress, more hard-surfacing
under way than in all the rest of
Texas, the 26 counties of the Texas
Panhandle await another 12 months
of good business as 1931 closes with
the area still in the "white spot" of
Nation's Business.
The paving in the north 20 coun
ties of this section now under way
totals more than all construction
prior to January 1, 1931. Projects
now started or recently completed
total 226 miles at a cost of $2,600,
000, while additional projects financ
ed and to start not later than spring
aggregate $2,325,000. When com
pleted there will be a total of 573
miles of paving radiating out of
Amarillo, only 160 miles cf which was
in prior to the first of 1931.
Gas Industry Booming
Next in importance to general
conditions here is the great gas
projects, booster stations, refin
eries and giant pipe lines from
the Panhandle field to the mid
western states, which were com
pleted during the year.
One billion- dollars more in
construction of additional par
allel lines is assured for 1932.
In 1931 the Continental Pipe
Line company finihhed "the
world's largest" booster plant
at Fritch, 26 miles from Ama
rillo, at a cost of $75,000,000,
the first of nine units which
boost natural gas to Indiana, Il
linois and other points east, thru
their big line that crosses the
Missouri river at Plattsmouth,
Nebraska.
With an extraction plant at
the same site and the' cost of
feeder lines from the gas fields,
the total expenditure, much of
which was spent here, has been
upwards of $300,000,000.
The 950-mile line to Chicago
is the second longest in the na
tion. It is 24-inch and a con
tract has been let to duplicate
it this year. Work is expected to
start at once.
Gasoline Line to St. Louis
The Missouri-Kansas Pipe Line
company's 1250-mile gas line from
Moore county to Indianapolis and
Kentucky, completed in 1931, is the
longest in the United States. The
Phillips Petroleum company also com
pleted its gasoline line to St. Louis
during the last 12 months.
The Missouri-Kansas line from the
Panhandle cost $400,000,000 and will
carry 175,000.000 cubic feet daily.
In Amarillo itself the new Potter
county court house, costing $445,000,
is now being occupied, the new Para-mount-Publix
theatre, costing $350,
000, will be ready in March, and the
Burrus Panhandle terminal grain ele
vator has been in use since harvest,
erected at a cost of more than $150,-
000 and holding 2,100,000 bushels.
The city will start work imme
diately on 23 paving projects to cost
$240,000. Three new railroad under
passes within the city limits were
finished at a cost of several hundred
thousands and helped to keep this city
fourth in Texas in building permits
until only recently when it dropped to
fifth.
In 1931, the Santa Fe railroad com
pleted 120 miles of its Amarillo-Las
Animas. Colo., project as far as Boise
City, Okla., and its connecting lines
from Spearman to Morse in the North
Plains of Texas as well as the Kelt,
Okla.-Colmor, N. M. line as far as
Gladstone, N. M.
The Fort Worth & Denver is near-
ing completion of a new railroad line
from Childress to Pampa. The Rock
Island has a permit from Vega, Texas,
to Forrest, N. M.. and an option on a
half-interest in the Fort Worth &
Denver project from Shamrock to
Childress.

Writes cf Road
Work and Condi
tions in East
Pennsylvania Using Own Forces to
Improve Township Roads A
Great llany Idle Men
Rev. and Mrs. P. A. Jacobson are
in receipt of an interesting letter
from their son, B. A. Jacobson, who
is located in Pennsylvania, just now
at Wilkinsburg, near Pittsburgh, en
gaged in road building for the state
under the direction of Governor Gif-
ford Pinchot.
When Mr. Pinchot was seeking his
election, he advocated taking over by
the state 20 thousand miles of town
ship roads and improving them to
"get the farmer out of the mud.
Later he was able to get this law
passed and now they are building
the roads.
They grade and drain the roads
and surface them with the most avail
able material, stone, gravel, slag, na
tive stone broken in the road, or "red
dog" (burned out mine dumps). The
state does the work with its own
forces (similar to the plan being fol
lowed by Governor Bryan in drouth
stricken Nebraska), renting necessary
equipment, etc. They have rented a
tractor and a roller from Mr. Jacob-
son's outfit, and his younger brother,
Rudolph, runs the roller. They have
also contracted for another tractor.
Mr. Jacobson is superintendent of
the work on one of the highways
and has hired his partner as his as
sistant.
Mr. Jacobson says the depression
has hit the east badly, perhaps worse
than in the middle west. He says he
never thought he would live to see
such deplorable conditions. In some
of the mill towns there, three out of
every four men have not had a day's
work for many months and the chid
ren cannot go to school for lack of
clothes and shoes. They are grateful
for a crust of stale bread given to
them by the bakeries. Some of the
mills representing millions are idle.
The boys are well. Rudolph tips
the scales at 158, which is good for
him and B. A. is a two hundred
pounder. He says he is lighter than
usual, 12 hours on the job helping to
keep down the surplus poundage.
They 'send regards to their Louis
ville friends, who will be much inter
ested to hear of the work they are
engaged in.
Mr. Jacobson is the senior member
of the road building firm of Jacobson
& Collins and have done extensive
road building throughout the east,
largely in New York and more recent
ly in Pennsylvania. Louisville Cour

From Saturday's Daily
The mercurv this morning at 7
nVlnrlr ctnnH at six below zero, the
coldest weather of the year, so far.
The temperature of one Deiow on

to drive into this city have been very
few and these have come oniy on
matters of necessity.
Aside from the main highways tne
rna H nil over the county remain
well closed up, the drags and home
made road machinery being unable
to move the snow. The county road
riennrtmen t has had their eauinment
out continuously since the heavy
snow, but only the heaviest and
largest maintainers and tractors have
been able to buck the drifts which
in some cases 111 the roads from side
to side and to the depth of from one
to six feet.

each day enjoys exercise and a good
meal of corn and remains from the

Regulation of
Bug Routes is
Advocated
Examiner Makes Recommendations
After Hearing Contained In
131-Page Report
Regulation by law, the same as
the railroads, of commercial motor
vehicles operating in Interstate com
merce on the public highways Is one
cf 50 recommendations made by Attorney-Examiner
Leo J. Flynn to the
interstate commerce commission as
the result of the commission's inquiry
into motor carrier-rail co-ordination
at hearings last year in Omaha and
16 other principal cities.
These recommendations are con
tained in a 131-page report received
Thursday by the Chamber of Com
merce traflic bureau, which with
other interested groups, is directed
to appear for oral arguments before
the commerce commission in Wash
ington March 1-3.
Other principal conclusions recom
mended by Examiner Flynn:
Railroad No Monopoly.
That the railroads no longer are
a virtual transportation munupuiy
and regulations based on that theory
ehould be revised.
The railroads should be authorized
to engage in motor vehicle transpor
tation.
Control of motor vehicle operation
by the railroads, through subsidiaries
or affiliated companies, should be
brought under supervision of the
commission.
The railroads should consider the
advisability of utilizing the Railway
Express Agency for handling all less
than carload freight.
Regulate Working Honrs.
The law should require that inter
state fares by motor vehicles must
be "Just and reasonable" and tariffs
must be filed the Fame as by the rail
roads. Hours of service and working con
ditions of those employed by motor
carriers should be on the same basis
as the railroads.
Railroad employes . displayed by
substitution of motor vehicle service
for rail eervlce should be transferred.
as far as possible, to the motor ve
hicle service of the railroad.
Freight forwarding companies
should be brought under supervision
of the commission.
The commission should inquire
whether motor carriers are contri
buting towards construction and
maintenance of public highways (by
taxation) in an amount commensur
ate with their use of such highways.
" CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
The subiect of the lejiRon-aermnn
in all Christian Science churches for
Sunday, January 10, is, "Sacrament."
The Golden Text., is 'from Reve
lation 7:13. 14. and reads: "What
are these that are arrayed 'in white
robes? and whence. came they . . .
These are they which came out of
great tribulation, and have washer!
their robes, and made them white m
tne Diood of the Lamb."
A citation from the Bible reads:
Let us draw near with a true heart
in full assurance of faith, having our
hearts sprinkled from an evil con.
science, and our bodies washed with
pure water." (Hebrews 10:22).
A passage from the Christian Sci
ence textbook, "Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary
Baker Eddy, reads: "If all who ever
partook of the Sacrament had reallv
commemorated the sufferings of
Jesus and drunk of his cup, they
would have revolutionized the world.
if an who seeks his commemoration
through material symbols will take
up the cross, heal the sick, cast out
evils, and preach Christ, or Truth,
to the poor, the receptive thought,
they will bring in the millenium."
(page 34).
