BOMBER TO TRY
TRANS-U.S. TRIP
ACROSSROCKIES
WASHINGTON, June s.—Plans for
a trans-continental flight directed by
the Operations Division of the Army
air service have been completed. The
start will be made from New York

contemplated will be at North Platte,
Nebraska, giving a first leg of 1,502

The pilots will be Captain Roy N.

tenant Edmund A. Clune, air service,
who will be assisted by two or three
mechanics.
The condition of the territory passed
over will be tabulated from the stand

as to meteorological conditions will
be gained. The reliability of the Lib

The U. S. Martin bomber will be

The route passes over 13 states in
i nearly direct air line from New York
to San Franpisco. It passes from New
York over the northern part of New
Jersey, central Pennsylvania, north
ern Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, southern
I lowa, central Nebraska, southern Wy
oming, northern Utah, Nevada and
California. The large cities en route
are Cleveland, Toledo, Chicago, Des
Moines, Omaha, Cheyenne, Salt Lake
and Sacramento. The southern end of
| Lake Michigan is to be crossed, the
Mississippi at Rock Island and Daven
port, and the Missouri at Omaha. The
i highest land elevation en route is
about 8,000 feet crossing the Rocky
, mountains of Wyoming.
The last trans-continental flight
made by the air service was that of
Major Thos. C. McCauley, who doub
led the southern continental route
from San Diego California, to Jack
sonville, Fla., between April 12 and
18, a distance of 4,642 miles in 2,655
minutes flying time. He made several
stops en route. His eastern flight,
with the benefit of the western wind
was made in 19 hours and 15 minutes
flying time. He used aDe Haviland
Four plane with a Liberty motor.
Best Government.
The proper function of a government
is to make it easy for people to dd

Requa Resigns as
U. S. Oil Director
WASHINGTON, June 5.—M. L. Re-
I qua has resigned as general director
of the oil division of the United States
Fuel administration and is to become
associated with the Sinclair petroleum
interests. Dr. H. A. Garfield, United
States Fuel administrator, in accept-
I ing Mr. Requa’s resignation, said:
“I appreciate that your work has
now reached a stage at which it is
: reasonable for you to ask, as you
have done, that I accept your resig
nation presented some months ago.
“I do so with regret, and yet with
pleasure, for while it marks the con
clusion of our joint services in con
nection with the fuel administration
I am glad to believe that it is the
beginning only of an acquaintance
which I trust may extend usefully
over many years.
‘ln accepting your resignation per
mit me not only to express my appre
ciation of the devotion and ability
you have brought to the task and the
achievements which are fairly yours
but also to say what I know is in
your own mind, that the administra
: tion of the oil division owes much to
i the hearty and efficient co-operation
rendered by the National Petroleum
War Service Committee •,organized as
AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER.
I a result of your activities in the of-
I fice.
[• “In your new association with the
j Sinclair petroleum interests I hope
I you will find time to continue your
I advocacy of the necessity for co-op
eration in the petroleum industry be
tween capital and labor and the gov
ernment along the lines frequently
discussed by us. With warmest re
i gards and best wishes, I remain, Sin-
I cerely yours, H. A. Garfield, United
States Fuel Administrator.”
Mr. Requa is a mining enginerr of
wide experience, is a consulting engi
neer to the Bureau of Mines and petro
i leum, is a vice-president of the Am
erican Institute of Mining and Metal-
■ lurgical Engineers and was chairman
of the Valuation committee of the

Without Hindrance.
The real democratic American idea

level with every other, but that every-

'THE WAR IS OVER
But the soldiers and sailors will never stop talk

Into the shoes, which their sweethearts, mothers

knows what a quick and wonderful relief Allen’s

LIEAVENS! What a terrible
* Lhock I had when I entered my
living room and saw the color
of green that the walls had been
painted. It was no w’here near the
shade of the sample that they
gave me. I ordered a soft grey
green and this color is pea-greep.
Mrs. Thomas stopped in to see
whether she could be of any assit
ance—the very last woman that I
should choose to have seen those
walls. Os course I tried to explain
to her that they would have to
be changed. She looked annoying
ly smart, too, in a suit of beige
color heavy linen, lined with red
and white checked gingham. The
collar and lapels in one, were also
of gingham; the cuffs were band
ed with it, the pockets lined, and
the hem of the skirt bound with
a fold of it. An extremely nar
row belt of black patent leather
added just the right touch to the
costume.

Suffering Described As Torture
Relieved by Black-Draught.
Rossville, Ga.—Mrs. Kate Lee Able, at
this place, writes: “My husband is aa
engineer, and once while lifting, be ie>
jured himself with a piece of heavy auk
chinery, across the abdomen. Hewaa
to sore he could not bear to press ea
himself at all, on chest or abdomen. He
weighed 165 lbs., and fell off until he
weighed 110 lbs., in two weeks.
He became constipated and it looked
like he would die. We had three different
doctors, yet with all their medicine, hit
Dowels failed to act. He would turn up
a ten-cent bottle of castor oil, and drink
it two or three days in succession. He
did this yet without result. We became
desperate, he suffered so. He was swol
len terribly. He told me his suffering
could only be described as torture.
I sent and bought Thedford’s Black-
Draught. I made him take a big dose,
and when it began to act he fainted, he
was in such misery, but he got relief and
began to mend at once. He got well,
and we both feel he owes his life to
Thedford’s Black-Draught.”
Thedford’s Black-Draught will help you
to keep fit, ready for the day’s work.
