* j Of Flight
• * *
Pilots G. L. Loomis and Joe Glass,
who will attempt to break the
world’s endurance record at Hous
ton soon in two Tex-Mex fishery
planes, are exuberant after testing
the planes and new motors, ac
cording to D. E. Stewart, vice-pres
ident of the local fishing company.
Stewart recently returned here from
Houston.
Following recent tests Glass, a
Texas air Transport pilot who visits
here often, declared: 'Those cer
tainly arc sweet motors. This flight
is going to be merely a question of
‘human endurance'—not motor en
durance.”
The two planes are equipped with
220-horse power Wright whirlwind
motors recently installed. The
planes are the ones used by the
Tex-Mex Fisheries for transporting
fish from the mouth of the Soto la
Marina river to Brownsville. They
are commercial Stinson planes.
Plans are going ahead rapidly for
the flight and the aviators believe
they will hop off the first part of
next week. The attempt will be
made over the Houston municipal
airport.

LOYALTY IS
LEAGUE AIM
Attorney Explains Purposes
To Local Business Men
At Luncheon
The League of Latin-American
Citizens, an organization which first
was formed along the border and
which is to become nation-wide in
its scope, has for its aim the teach
ing of loyalty to the United States
and to ideals of this country. J. T.
Canales, local attorney, told mem
bers of the Kiwanis club here at the
regular weekly luncheon Thursday.
Canales, who has been devoting
considerable time to organization
of the league, dramatically told of
the high purpose of those interested
in the movement.
Onlv Latin-American born in the
United States or those who have
become citizens of this country are
eligible to membership, he said.
"The purpose of our organization
is to teach these citizens loyalty to
this country, to encourage them to
learn to speak the English language
and to teach allegiance to the Amer
ican flag to thejr children." the
speaker declared. The oath of
membership pledges members to
learn to speak English, he said.
"The league is not a political or
ganization," he continued. "In fact
the constitution bars the holder of
any public office from active mem
bership Such an officer can only
become a passive member without
voice in the affairs of the league
Extracts from the constitution of
the organization were read by the
speaker to show the purpose of the
league.

ern flapper as "a girl dressed in
modern style, taking advantage of
the style to show herself off.’
"I am not talking about bobbed
hair nor even short skirts." he de
clared. "but the public exhibition
of nudity which is produc
ing the unheard of crimes against
womanhood."
He recommended two years of
courtship before marriage, home
weddings, joint social life for hus
band and wife, and going into debt
to purchase a home as conductive to
happy marriages.
