AVIATORS STOP
HERE ON FLIGHT
ACROSS COUNTRY
Men Making Trip in Airplane
From Chicago to Denver
Narrowly Escape Smash
in Attempt to Land.
Ensign H. F. Johnson and Lieut.
(. P. Mueller narrowly escaped
('eath or serious injury last night
in attempting to land at the Omaha
Country club in an airplane.
The aviators are on their way
:rom Chicago to Denver, stopping at
the larger cities enroute for the gen
eral purpose of commercializing the
airplane.
"Only an act of Providence saved
us when we tried to land," said
Lieutenant Mueller. "After soaring
about the city for more than half
an hour trying to find a suitable
place near the heart of town, we
chose what we later learned was the
Country club. We're not saying
anything about how the near-accident
occurred, but we came very
close to landing any way but up
right." "An agency has been established
in Denver for distribution of IS
CanadiatLairplanes which have been
used at practice fields," Mueller
said. "Arrangements are being made
to place agencies in Omaha and oth
er middle-western cities, also."
The average speed attained thus
far on the cross-country trip is 70
miles an hour- Johnson and Mueller
ara staying in the air only two and
a half hours at a time. They intend
to make two more stops between
Omaha and Denver but cannot say
at what cities these stops will be
made.

over the news that the United States

is just too lovely for any use."
Mrs. Smith Prepared.
"I was prepared for it," said Mrs.
Draper Smith, who is one of the
leaders in the movement in this
state. "We have just sent telegrams
of congratulation to Dr. Anna How
ard Shaw, Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Catt and Mrs. Maud Wood Parks,
who performed such splendid serv
ice in the cause."
"It is difficult to express my feel
ings," Mrs. James Richardson said.
"I am delighted to hear that the
amendment has been adopted, and
we here in Omaha are particularly
happy that we had such a promin
ent place in the fight."
Mrs C. S. Stebbins, who has been
interested in the suffrage movement,
said that she received her first in
spiration at the feet of the late Su
san B. Anthony. "The fun," she
said, "now begins to get the states
to ratify the amendment. The gov
ernment has done all that it can do."

been going on for the past two
months, but has been attracting con
siderable attention in Central Amer
ican countries for the past four
weeks. Forces said to have been
recruited from political exiles form
eJ bands along the Nicaraguan
frontier near Like Nicaragua and
advanced southward, clashing on
several occasions with forces com
manded by Joaquin Tinoco, Costa
Kican minister of war.
The fighting has been restricted
almost entirely to the mountainous
country near the Nicaraguan border
although skirmishes further south
have een reported. The situation
is quite obscure, owing to the fact
that reports from Costa Rica have
been of a conflicting nature. Pun
tarenas is a port on the Pacific coast
of Costa Rica and is the Pacific
terminus of the railroad extending
across Costa Rica to Port Limon
which is the most important harbor

War Department Without

Washington. June 4. No infor

ing of American naval ' forces in
Costa Rica has reached either the
Navy or State departments and Sec
retary Daniels said today he doubt
ed any landing had been made. If

Food Surplus Is Large
Enough to Supply the
World, Says Hoover
Paris, June 4. There is a suffi
cient surplus of food indicated from
the coming harvests to supply
Europe and meet the needs of the
world unless some unexpected catas
trophe happens to the world's har
vests, according to a statement is
sued today by Herbert C. Hoover,
head of the aillied relief organiza
tion. The bread budget balances, but
the surplus of the American crop of
wheat and rye this year will be
needed. The statement says that
most of the trading in wheat and
rye will be in the hands of the gov
ernments. Other figures gained from the
survey made by the organization and
various governments indicate, that
the sugar crop in eastern Europe
this year will be 65 per cent of pre
war normal, the wheat and rye crop
77 per cent and the vegetable har
vest about normal. Since the war,
it is estimated Europe has lost
18,400.000 cattle, 39,000,000 hogs and
8,600,000 sheep.
The statement estimates the Euro
pean consumption of wheat and rye
at 2,250,000,000 bushels, of which be
tween 700,000,000 and 850,000000
bushels will have to be imported.
