RIPE OLIVES SAFE,
CHEMISTS REPORT
Washington, Nov. 22.—Three out
breaks of botulism, due to canned
ripe olives, reported to the Depart
ment of Agriculture early this year
caused the government to make a
searching survey of the ripe olive
situation, it was disclosed today when
the findings became public.
"These unfortunate occurrences re
vived suspicion of this product
aroused by the series of outbreaks
in 1919 and 1929, which had been
largely allayed by the earnest efforts
made jointly by the state and the
packing companies involved," said the
department's report. "A resurvey of
the ripe olive situation by the bureau
, 6t chemistry was therefore necessary.
"Bacteriological examination of the
samples showed that canned ripe
olives which were free from swell,
from abnormal odor, or other marks
of spoilage, were not dangerous.
Botulinus was not found in any sam
ple. The investigation furnished no
ground for attributing special danger
to the consumption of ripe olives If
Reasonable crjre is exercised to exclude
spoiled products from sale or use."

FLIERS’ TRIP MOST
DARING IN HISTORY
< Continued From Taco One.I
honor because of hls superior quali
fications for undertaking a task of
this kind. Hls experiences have made
him the one man In the world best
fitted *o this work. As an explorer
and world traveler hls life hag been
devoted to adventurous undertakings,
and hs has supreme qualifications of
experience to qualify him In assisting
Commander Lowell Smith and hls fel
low navigators of the air In prepar
ing a permanent human Interest rec
ord of the most adventurous episode
since Columbus discovered America
and Magellan galled round the world.
He lg an aviation enthusiast, has
flown over many of the countries of
the globe, and has been a world
traveler for many years has been
spent In the very countrlee oYer
which the w'orld aviators made their
epoch making flight .Including Slam,
India, Indo-China, the orient, the
southern European nations, Burma,
Arabia, Beloochlstan, and Alaska and
the Aleutians as well.
He la an American, bom In Colo
rado, and a former newspaper man
and a famous war correspondent.
Lived With Aviators.
Lowell Thomas has been living with
the aviators, flying with them for
thousands of miles, and taking down
from their Ups the complete personal
narrative of their hairbreadth es
capes, their battles with Arctic bliz
zards, flights through blinding rain
and snow, encounters with tropic
monsoons and simoons, experiences
with ths natives of four continents
over which they flew, ths Intimate
story of their personal sensations,
reactions, and opinions—and last, but
by no means the least, the romantic
and fantastically humorous story of
their triumphal tour of America, with
Its attendant conquests of hearts, a
tour that has surely never been par
alleled In the history of this or any
other land.
JVjch has been written, and In
many languages, of how America's
airmen won through where the air
men of five different countries failed.
But the big human Interest story
which the public Is eager for and
which hundreds of thousands of patri
otic Americans have begged for in
every city through which the boys
have passed, Is the Inside story from
the lips of the world fliers themselves,
the Intimate tale of how they came
to fly around the globe, how lines
came In their faces and their hair
turned gray under the strain; whom
they saw. how they lived, what they
thought, how they conquered the air,
and then, as one would expect of six
attractive bachelor heroes, how they
returned to conquer the heart of the
American girl.
Odyssey From Real Ufe.
It Is an American Odyssey from
real life more thrilling than anything
Jules Verne ever wrote, more hair
raising than any dime novel, and
more adventurous and romantic than
the fabled Odyssey of Ulysses, for the
reason that It la Intimate and trite
story of the most adventurous ejysedl
flon since those earliest navigators,
the Phoenicians, set forth across un
charted seas before the dawn of re
corded history. It Is a story such as
: that *et down In the chronicles of
i ha voyage* of Columbia, Magellan,
Frobisher, Drake, Vasco de Gama and
Alfonao de Albuquerque. It Is a tale of
daring and achievement that should
be a trumpet call to every American
man, woman and child to remind
them of their inheritance; an epic
capable of Inspiring a modern emu
lator of Homer or Plutarch who
through this tale will prove to us
that, superficial appearances notwith
standing, our race is no more degen
erate today than It was when giants
walked the earth.
The story of the world flight will be
published exclusively in The Omaha
Bee beginning November 24.
