    AIR SERVICE MAKES
PICTURE MAP OF U. S.
Largest Aerial Photograph
ing Ever Attempted.
Washington.—The largest aerial
photographic mapping project at
tempted by any country is now un
der way in Texas and it Is expected
that when the work has been com
pleted there will have been photo
graphed 10,000 square miles. The
time required In which to take th
photographs, develop and fit them to
gether Into one large map Is esti
mated at three months. This work
Is being done by the photographic
section of the air service of the army.
Maj. Gen. Mason M. Patrick, chief
of the air service, believes the mak
ing of maps Is the most Important
peace-time won* In which that serv
ice can be engaged, and says that
the8e pictures are projects on which
also the corps of engineers and Unit
ed States geological survey are work
ing. The importance of the enterprise
may be grasped when one considers
the element of time aud the great
cost to the country of the work. By
aerial photography the saving in time
is estimated at 75 per cent and 50
per cent In the cost of the survey.
Many Requests Received.
The office of the chief of air service
is receiving many requests from gov
ernors and other officials of state, in
cluding counties, asking that the serv
ices of the photographic section of
the air service be utilized in state and
county survey work.
Projects on which the army ia now
engaged include a map of Indiana
and of. Chicago and vicinity. 1,500
square miles. This w ork is being done
by the army photographic section sta
lloned at Chanute field. 111.
The men at Scott field. Mo., are
making a 500-miie map of a section
of Missouri, co-operating with the
United States geological survey and
the corps of engineers. Approxi
mately 1.000 square miles of the Mis
souri river Is being taken from Kan
sas City to St. Louis. Air section
photographers from Fort Itiley, Kans..
are mapping 500 square miles in the
vicinity of St. Joheph. Mo., working
with the United Slates geological sur
vey.
The air photographers also are co
operating with the corps of engineers
and United States geologieal survey
in Arizoha, California. Hawaii and
the Philippines.
The crew of the pianos doing this
work consists of a pilot and an ob
server, the latter expert in making
map pictures. The officers are se
lected from those who have completed
courses In experimental work con
ducted at the air station in Dayton,
Ohio.
Work for This Year.
General Patrick expects to photo
graph 30,000 square miles during the
current fiscal year. It is the plan to
make a picture map of the whole
United States and It has been esti
mated it will take from five to eight
ye..Ts to complete it.
The photographic sections of the
air service are distributed through
out the country as follows: Fort Bliss,
Texas: Langley field, Va.; Bolling
field, D. C.; Maxwell field, Mont
gomery, Ala.; Chanute field. Chanute,

49 Operations in
2 Years, His Record
Philadelphia. — Forty-nine blood
transfusions within two years Is the
record of Charles Donnelly of Locust
Gap, Pa., who is puzzling physicians in
Jefferson hospital, where he is suffer
ing from anemia. Donnelly submitted
to the first operation In September,
1922, and since then has bad a transfu
sion every two weeks.
His brothers, Frank, John, Joseph
and Thomas, make periodical trips to
the hospital, each time furnishing
hlood for their brother.
Donnelly said he was growing weaker
since the last transfusion a few weeks
ago and that he needed more blood. He
said that besides his brothers, several
students had offered to give their
blood.
Motor Horn on Carriage
Livens Belgrade Streets
Belgrade.—On all two-horse open
carriages which here take the place of
taxicabs, automobile horns have re
placed the shrill yell of the driver as
he tears through the streets, and all
because of a young American.
He came here to take over an auto
mobile agency and found an overstock
of horns. Some time later, curiously
enough, the city authorities passed an
ordinance compelling horse vehicles
to be equipped with these signals. The
American Is happy and so is the popu
lace, ' because the constant shriek of
the horns gives the city an appearance
of rather sound, of hustling modernity.
Campaign Costs Quarter
Davenport, Iowa.—Twenty-five cents
made up the campaign expense ac
count of H. Bari Fries, who won the
Republican Domination for constable
here against a field of seven candi
dates, he has announced. His Item
ized statement showed that the money
was spent for an Ice cream cone, h
bottle of soda water and a packagi
of cigarettes.

MEXICO IS HAVEN
FOR U. S. CROOKS
Officials Below Line Ignore
“Gentleman’s Agreement.”
Laredo, Texas. — Notwithstanding
diplomatic relutinns between Mexico
and the United States have been re
stored. complaint is made by Texas
border etticers that it is virtually im
possible to obtain extradition of fu
gitive criminals from Mexico. Such a
voluminous amount of red tape must
be unraveled that almost interminable
delays result.
To such a degree is this true that
the formality of applying for the ex
1 tradition of an offender who may have
j sought refuge in Mexico is seldom ob
j served. Instead, a friendly under
! standing exists between the peace of
; ticers and government authorities of
| the border states on both sides of the
international line that they will ex
| change fugitive criminals without le
I gal process
Even this cement is not always
lived up to by the Mexican authori
ties. It Is charged here. As a matter
of fact, hundreds of offenders against
the law who tied to Mexico in the lust
few years are living in apparent se
curity against molestation in that
country. All efforts to bring about
their return to the American side of
the boundary have proved futile. It is
declared.
No blame is attached to the Mexi
can government for this. The author
ities of that country are too busy try
ing to round up a horde of domestic
criminals to pay much attention to
foreign refugees. During the recent
revolutionary period hundreds of des
perate criminals were released from
prison by rebels and are today roam
ing over tiie country.
Famous Indian of
Old Alaska Is Dead
Douglas, Alaska.—Dick Morgan, an
Indian who died recently, was a his
toric character of Alaska, it was re
called by Rev. A. P. Kashevaroff of
•Juneau.
Morgan, whom the United States
naval authorities had employed as a
policeman nearly 50 years ago. was
sent with a message from t'apt. L. A.
Beerdslee to settle differences that
had arisen between the KoekwontniiB
and Ganaudi tribes north of Sitka.
Morgan informed the chiefs of the
warring factions that they were to
preserve order and to permit the whits
men to go through the Yukon passes.
Morgan returned on February 12.
1880, with word to Captain Beerdslee
that the Indian factions would re
main peaceful and that the white men
could enter the country without fear.
As a result of this parley the Chilkat
country was opened to miners.

“Your total account, therefore, has

Seasickness Is Great
Handicap to Soviet Fleet
Riga, Latvia.—Seasickness is a
| great handicap to ttie activities of the
soviet navy, says Naval Expert Lu
kashevich in an article in the soviet
press discussing the necessity for
long-distance cruising for the Red
fleet.
It is impossible, the writer says, to
speak about the preparedness of the
fleet unless it has had practical ex
perience with such cruising. At pres
ent the soviet fleet is manned by
young factory workers, and he ex
pressed the belief that more than half
the crew would be put out of action
through seasickness in their first ac
quaintance with wind and waves.
In the Caspian sea during the Civil
war, Lukashevich adddd, seasickness
disabled 80 per cent of the crews, and
the remainder had the greatest diffi
culty in saving the ships.

Notice today how you, yourself,
