By Associated Preen. San Diego. Cal , June 19 —Flights which army aviators hope will eclipse any achievement of the air since avia lion began, will be attempted here late this month by Rockwell field pilots. The aviators, who have been i elected to go after the records, are Capt. I.owell H. Smith and Lieut. Johns B. Richter. Captain Smith and Lieutenant Richter hope not only to pass the world endurance record held by Lieu tenant Kelly and MacReady. but to stay In the air three times as long as did those two airmen. This they hope to accomplish by taking aboard gaso line, oil, water and food while in mid air. They will go aloft sometime In the full moon period between June 26 and 30, using a specially equipped De Haviland airplane, and they plan to ipmaln up for four days and four night, or until their motor burns out. Lieut Frank Seifert and Lieut. Vir gil Mines, adjutant of Rockwell field, both extremely clever flyers, have been selected to pilot the airplane that will attempt to deliver fuel, water and food In midair to Smith and Richter. Preliminary flight tests at Rockwell field have demonstrated that midair refueling can be accom nllshed. although attended ny un usual hazards. Tunnel Blown Up. Hr Internet (final New* Herr tee.

Uni verhily Medics An nounced 80 Per Cent of 5,000 Cases Successful. By Associated Press. New York, June 19.—Medicine to day claimed another victory in the struggle against diseases which tor centuries have plagued mankind. Announcement was made last night by the New York university medical college of a cure for rheumatism which it was claimed had proved pos itive in SO per cent of 5,000 cases ex perimentally handled. The cure consists of injections of serum of a graduated series of strep ticoccl viridans, which doctors who discovered the treatment declared, is acknowledged as the underlying cause of rheumatism. Announcement of the cures follows closely the revelation by radiologists of the Bellevue hospital laboratories of a new treatment of cancer, where by x-rays of 250,000 voltage are used for long periods of time on cancer in fected regions of the body. Miss Anna Ellin, first patient thus treated, was reported today to he steadily inv proving. The rhehmatism cure is the latest in a series of discoveries of serums and treatments against diseases which have hitherto been regarded as incurable. The Insulin treatment for diabetes, but recently developed, al read has been hailed as the conqueror of the disease, while the triparsamld treatment for sleeping sickness of the African variety, paresis and other mental diseases has proven to be suc cessful. Philadelphia, June 19—Wlfhln the next two weeks a. patient suffering from cancer will he placed under an x ray of 300.000 volts, the highest voltage ever used to generate a Ro entgen ray, William Weber, a Roent genologist, announced today.

Medicinal Rum Allowed Ships Doctors on Foreign Ships to Be Given Custody in U. S. Ports. By Associated Press, Washington, June 19.—A part of the mystery which has surrounded the latest treasury move In the ship liquor controversy was dispelled to day by a declaration in official cir cles that hereafter the ship’s doctor on a foreign ship will be given cus tody in American waters of such llq uor as he is willing to certify is for “medicinal purposes." Although no one at the treasury would discuss the development In de tail, It was assumed that under this policy it will be possible for foreign ships to bring in wine rations for their crews, under seal, provided the doctor In charge rhoses to regard the Intoxicants so carried as "med ical." A letter sent yesterday by Secretary Mellon to the public health service constitutes a construc tion of medicinal provisions of the law and make sure that all foreign laws requiring ships to carry med icinal liquors will be complied with. By those instructions a ship’s doctor may make a sworn statement a* to the liquors deemed necessary for medicinal purposes and public health officers will not (lispute their opinion. The letter Is not regarded at the treasury as changing any section of the regulations as recently promul gated to carry out the findings of the supreme court It is conceded, how ever. that it wih work for elasticity in the regulatory provisions.

Beveridge Opposes World Court in Speech Boston, June 19—America would still be a part of the British empire had the matters seemingly in dispute between Great Britain and Its Ameri can colonies lieen submitted to an in ternational court, former Senator Al bert -I. Beveridge of Indiana said in an address tonight at the Bunker Hill day banquet of general officers, Sons of the Revolution.

Constant Vigilance the Price of Quality To the man on the street, . cement may seem nothing more than an uninteresting gray powder which is used in construction work. But to the chemist—the trained scientist who knows — it has a pedigree. To him ce ment is a carefully com pounded product, the result of a long series of chemical and mechanical operations, checked by the unremitting watchfulness of modern laboratory skilL . At every stage in its manufacture from quarry to loaded box car, portland cement and the materials from which it is made are subjected to the most ex acting scientific tests. The geologist and the chemist must make their examinations and approve the available raw materials even before the site for a mill is chosen. Once the mills machin ery is busily miking cement, chemists and physicists test raw materials and fin ished product at least eleven times. The plant laboratory op erates 24 hours a day to maintain constant control on every process. Finally, each carload is sampled be fore the railroad hauls it away. Cement is a quality product.
