Italeigh, Sept. 11.—Crop coud : - tions iu western North Carolina are not nearly so bad as they have been painted, F. H. Jeter, editor of Farm Publications for the extension di vision of State college, said today, on bis return from a trip to the moun tains. Mr. Jeter visited three counties— Buncombe, Henderson and Transyl vania—and he reports some good ’croiis in those three. “While the crops are short, of course,” said Mr. Jeter, “the people up there are not starving by any means.” .In fact, he said, he found consider able optimism among the farmers that the season would yet turn out better than was expected. Some good croiis are reported in Transylvania. But in all three coun ties, Mr. Jeter said, he saw some good fields of bottom land corn, good sorghum, good crops of potatoes, and considerable hay. Honest Biographies Uncommon. Exchange, “Paint me just like I am, mole and all,” said Cromwell to the artist who had omitted a mole, thinking to please the great man. Fronde went on this principle in 'editing the "Life and Letters of Thomas Car lyle.” His disclosures of Carlyle’s real self convulsed the literary world. If this is the way a mail’s secret life is to be given to the public by his biographer, it was said, woe to him who keeps a diary or unbosoms him self in familiar correspondence! There is no evidence that Froude transcended his instructions. Carlyle, like Cromwell, wished to be painted as he was, warts and all. And Car lyle today does not stand any longer in the opinion of the world for Mr. Froude’s disclosures. The fact is that we unconsciously subtract a good deal from the statements of those biographers who represent their heroes as too perfect. When they tell us that great man never spoke a harsh word, even to his wife, we all know that they are speaking falsely, and make up our minds that break- 1 FREE VOTING COUPON H in The Tribune nnd Times “Everybody Wins” Grand Prize Campaign " [ GOOD FOR 100 VOTES J I I hereby cast 100 FREE VOTES to the credit of— ft Address _ __ pj l This coupon, neatly clipped out, name and address of the candidate H I filled in, and mailed or delivered to the Election Department of The 1} j Tribune and Times, Boom 200 Cabarrus Bank Bldg., or P.

Washington, Sepf. 11—The bureau of public roads today decided to ap portion road funds authorized for the fiscal year 1037 on December 1, a month ahead of the usual time. De cision was reaehed following a con ference between Georgia officials and acting Chief P. St. J. Wilson, of the bureau of public roads. The Georgia delegation requested the bureau to make available for use in its state money which would be apportioned during the next fiscal year in order to speedily start new projects and give employment to farmers suffering from the drought. Unless relief is obtained, the delegation declared, there will be a migration from the af fected areas.

S. Navy. Commander Seaplane PX-9. No. 1. Honolulu. Sept. 11. —For the benefit of the interested public, I desire to make at rii-s time a definite state ment of faets in regard to the voyage of the PX-9 No. 1, from San Fran cisco to Xawiliwili. Other statements heretofore published by the press are unauthorized bv me. The PX-9 No. 1 and No. 3 left San Francisco approximately at the same time on August 81f*t, No. 3 lead ing by about twenty minutes. The PX-9 No. 3 was not sighted by Xp. I after departure. Plane PX-9 No. 1 proceeded as per instructions, sailing on a straight course to Kaluluo. The wind out of San Francisco was very light from the northwest, gradu ally hauling to the north. The navi gation was done entirely by dead reck oning. no attention being paid to ra dio bearings. We flew between two and four hundred feet below the clouds during the night, the sky being thick ly overcast and all destroyers were picked up as expected at a distance easily visible from the PX-9, while at the same time the plane was easily visible from the destroyers. Worked Perfectly. The engines worked perfectly and there were no signs of leaks or any other trouble. The wind (Ranged t< i northeast, as expeeted, about s«ix bun- < dred miles from San Francisco, but was much lighter than had been hoped for. In the morning it became evi* dent that the gasoline supply was run ning short and it would be doubtful if we could reach Kahuluo. due to the fact t’.mt expected favorable- winds were not encountered. About noon we decided that our gasoline supply would carry us about midway between the Aroostook and the Tangier, ro spectively, the next to the last and the last station eh ip. I, therefore, decided to land at the Aroostook, which is fully equipped with airplane l end- 1 er. We still had plenty of gasoline to land, re-fuel and take-off again for Honolulu. This was in accordance with the pre-arranged plans to meet I the situation with which we were afraid on approaching the Aroostook. We received radio bearings from her: we changed our course to approach on these bearings. It became evi dent that she would not be found on this course. I started to write a message which would give her some clue to our whereabouts, but just then the gasoline gave out. Both engines were cut out simultaneously and we started to glide from about 800 feet. Pretty Landing. Lieutenant Connell, who had the contracts, made a beautiful landing in the heavy sw’ells. both engines be ing dead, having no power. Due to total expenditure of gasoline, we could not use radio and were therefore, out of communication at twilight. I de termined our position to be fifty .niilen north of the Aroostook's station. We rigged a radio antennae on the plane and received without much difficulty everything that was in the air. We sailed before the wind, endeavoring to work the plane in toward the Ha waiian Islands, hoping to make Oahu. We made fifty miles a day, that is, an average of two miles an hour, al though the plane appeared to be mak ing much better speed. We cut the fabric from the lower : wing and rigged a foresail. Weather« Is Ready to Go on Trial to Save His First Born New York Mirror. “He is my boy—flesh of my flesh, and blood of piy blood. When he goes on trial. I go on trial.’’ , Thus did Dix W.

The plane at all times be haved very well. After the first day we felt eure that unless the weather changed make Oahu. or. failing that we would certainly to be able to make Kauai. Our only concern was a question of water supply. We knew we could get along without food, of which we had small emergency ra tions. We were depending on a small water still for water. Burned Part of Plane. This supplied water bu the plane still required gasoline ns fuel. We managed to get the still going on the sixth day by burning wood from the training edges of the lower wings. On the seventh day we made a can teen and a half of water in about five bourn The water in the radiators of the engines was undrinkable due to being impregnated with a parent solu tion to prevent leakage. We managed to make our small original supply of water, about two canteens a man, stretch over seven days. On the Stli j day a heavy rain squall passed over us and we caught about two gallons in j the fabric which had been cut from ! the lower wings. This enabled us to j ; survive and consequently we were in j very good condition when we arrived j , off Xawliljwili. j All during the trip we realized that . l an extemporized radio sending set j would solve our difficulties in a few i hours by giving our position to the j searching ships. We tried ridding} one up, but were unable to make onej which worked a sufficient distance, j The receiver, as I have said, func- • tioned perfectly all the time. We knew just, what was going on about Sighted Steamer. Crossing the steamer lane from Honolulu to the coast a steamer crossed our view about five miles ] ahead, in the early morning. Due particularly to the fact that the sun was low and directly in the eyes of observers we were not seen. On the 7til Lieutenant Connell de vised lee boards which enabled us to I crab off the wind about 15 degrees and they were of great assistance to us in getting across Kauai channel. Without them we could not have made Kauai. We passed Oahu, about forty miles distant, the island being clearly vis ible. the afternoon of the eighth, and beaded and closed hauled for Kauai. We had reached a point about fifteen miles off Xawiliwili and were trying to signal that port when we were sighted by the patrolling submarine, ten miles off Xawiliwili. We were taken in town and towed into the harbor where the whole island popu lation was out to receive ÜB. The most exciting part of the whole journey was getting the plane an chored safe in the harbor of Xawili wili. Finally we got it well secured ' in a safe place and went ashore. ‘ The outstanding feature of the trip was that there was no failure of ma terial at any time either in the air or the water. We believe that the PX-9 is a great plane in the air, capable of maintaining itself on the surface of the water in ordinary weather al most indefinitely. The morale of the crew was high.
