CONTINENTAL FUSS Because Great Britain signed naval pact with Germany which rill allow Adolph Hitler to triple is fatherland's sea strength, lenito Mussolini proposes to dis- j egard the recommendations of le League of Nations as to his wn aggressive action in East Lfrica. In view of strong British1 riticism of Italy's recent rushlg of troops to Abyssinia, the j 'remier and his ministers feel j riat the British government; nould have discussed the treaty ction with other European powrs?and with the League of j rations. British agents hasten to efend the pact on the grounds tiat it is a step toward future, eace for Europe. MAKES BLIND FLIGHT Further assurance of safety | jr transoceanic flyers came on [ une 22 when the Clipper, of the 'an American Airways, landed j i San Francisco on a flight j rom Honolulu.

Waley drew a prison sent ence of 45 years. He assertec that his wife, 19 years old, knew nothing of the crime until three days after he had abducted the boy. Because of his assertion, the court rejected her plea of guiltj until further investigation can be made. Waley is 24 years old, and Federal officers stated that with good behavior he will be eligible for parole after 15 years. BABY SOLON SEATED Rush D. Holt, youthful Democrat from West Virginia, was seated by vote of the United States Senate Friday after a lively debate as to the constitutionality of such a proceeding. Holt, too young to take oath as a senator until two days before, presented himself for installation only to have several members oi the Senate argue his election void on grounds that he was too young to hold office when elected. A 62-17 vote rejected the motion of Senator Hastings (R-Del.) tc oust HoJt, and the same vot? granted him his seat. The "infant's" parents watched from th< gallery as he took the oath which made him a full-fledged lawmaker. EMBASSY BOMBED Ambassador Josephus Daniels classed as "a matter which has no importance" the bomb which exploded in the courtyard of the American embassy in Mexico Citj on the morning of June 23. The source of the bomb, which made ? hole nine inches deep, and broke a number of windows?that of the Ambassador's private office among them?is yet undetermined. Daniels told newspaper correspondents that he had receivec no threats; he made no complaints to the police. Officers whe heard the explosion, however, reported it, and a cordon of police was thrown around the embassj while investigation progressed. ONE ON CAL Former president Calvin Coolidge is quoted as saying of ar eauestrian nhoto of Senator Wil liam E. Borah (R-Ida.) that it couldn't be Borah, because the man and the horse were going the same way. Borah has come through with another exceptior to prove the rule of his well known contrariness by hailing President Roosevelt's new ta> plan as "a just and timely adjust ment of our tax laws." The new plan is arranged on a sliding scale, and will affect materiallj only those incomes large enougl to stand substantial taxation Borah, however, called it ai "economical plan," sound ir principle, classing as "absurd" the "soak-the-rich" and "share-the weath" epithets applied to it. The Brunswick County corr crop is reported in excellent con dition with all other crops grow ing well.

CRAWFORD j; Chief Engineer J Chevrolet Motor Company ? i I [ J The comfort of the driver am . j his passengers on a vacatior ' I tour depends partly on their uti ! | lizing the special features buill [! into their car, and partly on theii | own initiative. The experienced long-distance tourist thinks nothing of a run of four or five hundred miles a day, because he has learned how to rest and rela> during the run; whereas, manj 1 whose average driving is but a l|few miles daily in the city, 01 .; 100 miles on Sundays, become fatigued on an all-day trip, simply through failure to avai ' i themselves of the refinements which the manufacturer has pro k | vided. , Fatigue is the chief cause ol [; discomfort on a long tour, sum, | mer or winter; in the summer ' heat and glare are added bur j! dens. We have come to the aic ( of the driver with improvements , that enable the driver to comba' " ~c f, NORTH CAROLINA I of effects, but many drivers fai j to reap their full advantages. The I rear windows of a sedan should j be open, for instance, even if J only the front seat is occupied? j because it induces circulation of I air throughout the car, from i front to rear. Incidently, if your (! car has a heater, don't forget I that it will act as a radiator inside the car, even though the t switch is turned off, unless the r | heater is disconnected from the I; engine. Another point to watch .! in hot weather is tire pressure. . j Tires inflated in the cool of the i morning with cold air from a ; compressor tank will increase in r pressure from the heat of the l road and of running, and may be: | come too hard for comfort. >1 On long drives, it is a good . J practice to halt by the roadside 1' at regular intervals?say for five ; | minutes every two hours?for a . "stretch." It helps too to get out of the car for a few minutes at f stops for gasoline, or during long . waits at railroad crossings. Probably the most trying driv. ing?and the most dangerous?is i when you can stay awake only by 3 j conscious effort. The thing to do t j is to stop, and take a ten min1 ute nap. 3 j Eye strain has much to do . with the fatigue of driving. Use the adjustable visors of your car .! whenever possible, and wear tin3 ted glasses to kill the glare of r the road. r I > , \ Issues Report On t Soil Adaptations r t The N. C.

The actual muscular effort re quired to drive a car all day i! not great; the fatigue of a lonj j j drive results more from beinj j i forced to remain in a fixed posi (| tion than from actual expendi , ture of energy. You would ge ': just as tired, of course, if yoi , | remained in an easy chair a ^' home all day. The experiencec , I driver will vary his position a! [ frequently and as widely as pos [ sible by moving the easily ad [ justable front seat back ant forth, and by shifting his pos I ture on the seat. Muscular effort in driving ii ( chiefly in the operation of th< ; pedals. The experienced drive) i will save a lot of energy in theii ' use. It does not take much ef j fort to depress the clutch ant i brake pedals, but to hold then down for extended periods is ex : tremely fatiguing. Therefore, yoi '! wont' find a knowing driver wait II ing in gear at a signal, with thi " J clutch pedal held down; he'll b< j in neutral, resting his foot ant ! | leg. Similarly, at a halt on ; | jgrade, he will hold the car witl 5 J the hand brake, not with hi. 1 foot. On long, stretches of clea: road, or on long climbs requirin; ' | full throttle, the driver may se [ the hand throttle and rest hii " j accelerator foot by a change o position. On a steep down grade ' i he will save his braking muscle) r i by shifting into second gear. lj Combating hot weather als< j has its tricks.
