This is the $25,000 prize offered by Raymond Orteig of New York, and open to aviators crossing the Atlantic be tween Paris or the shores of France ad New York on a non-stop flight, in either direction. The money is now on dejmsit in an American bank and has been avail able since 1910. Recently two groups of aviators, one in France and one jn the United States, have start ed plans to capture it. Mr. Orteig formally extented the time for the prize award until June 1, 1030. Should a non-stop trans-Atlantic flight begin in New York, officials of the National Aeronautic Association would have charge of the official in spection. The Aero Club of France would handle the inspection at Pnris. Carl F. Schory, official timer of the National Aeronautic Association, explains that in non-stop flights, such ns the Orteig prize con templates, the gasoline tanks of the aircraft are sealed to prevent re tilling. Officials are also able to keep tab on the movements of a nonstop aircraft through use of a sealed barograph. This instrument, which looks like a small bix, contains a recording pen which works in har mony with the pressure of the baro meter and registers on a revolving cylinder the height at which a plane flies and the time it remains in the air. STATE BOOM IN WGBA DRAWS FROM FLORIDA Charters Show That Carolina Real Estate Projects Are Popular in the South. Raleigh, Sept. 13.—North Caro lina'* boom in the west Is better known in Florida than in the Tar Heel k\ngdoin, business men say, but daily charters from the secretary of The six charters Saturday all come from the west. One' of these was foretold in Saturday morning's papers because it carried tile grandiose plans of Thomas Dixon and others. But the other five institutions are in the west. The state is getting set to go and Florida folks will come up and trade. They see in the state the surcease from summer’s heat that their state offers from winter’s cold. Realtors in Raleigh and Greensboro have put themselves on record as having start ed a big boom two years ago but for one and another reason the thing coilasped. Perhaps the spirit which makes men go to foreign parts was behind this failure. Anyway, the country is coming to North Carolina and the charters show that the sec tion is busy.

N. Spencer, secretary of the fair association. Admission prices this year will be: During day. 50 cents for adults and 25 cents for children; at night, 23 cents for all. Last year adults had to pay 75 cents to get in the ground, it was pointed out by Dr. Spencer, and re gardless of tfie fact that the fireworks, free acts and race* are to cost more this year than ever before, admission prices are reduced. “We planned last year to make the admission price 50 cents, this year,” Dr. Spencer said, “but it' has been reported to me that in some manner it has been circulated in the county that the price was to be raised to a dollar. There is nothing to such reports, of course, for we have never contemplat ed raising the price. In fact, we de cided last year to reduce the price.” Dr. Spencer is confident that visi tors to the fair this year are going to he surprised *t the excellency of at tractions to be offered.

WILL AID ANOTHER BOARD OF INQUIRY Board Appointed Last Week by the President. Washington. Sept . 14.— (a 1 )—A court of inquiry to investigate the Shenandoah disaster with Rear Ad miral Hilary P. Jones, chief of the navy's general board as its president, was appointed today by Secretary Wilbur. The work of this board will supple ment. that of the special board of 9 men appointed by President Coolidge to delve thoroughly into the broad question of the nation's air policies, which das been the subject of bitter controversy since the Shennndonh dis aster. The announcement of the personnel of the board to investigate the Shenan doah crash came on the heels of a denouncement of navy critics by Rear Admiral Moffett, chief of the navy's bureau of aeronautics. Those who will serve with Admiral Jones in conducting the inquiry are: Capt. Frank H. Clark; aide to the as- , sistant secretary; Capt. Louis B. Me- ( Bride, of the navy construction corps; Commander John H. Towers, lieuten- . ant-commander Ralph C. Pennoyer, Captain Paul Foley, director of the experimental laboratory at Bellevue, District of Columbia, and Lieut.- Commander Pierce will be his adviser. At the time Mr. Wilbur was an nouncing the personnel of the Shenan doah Board, the War Department made plans to have> Col. Wm. Mitch ell, chief figure in the whole contro versy, available as an expert witness for the President's commission when that body begins its inquiry. It was explained at the War De partment that neither disciplinary proceedings which have been initiat- years, Dr. Spencer and other fair of ficials are ready to offer attractions this year that will surpass in every way attractions offered in the past. “We strive each year to offer a fair bigger and better than the oqe the yqgr before,” Dr. Spencer continued, “and to carry out this policy we have spared no expense. The Cabarrus County Fair has attained an enviable reputation throughout the South and we are determined to offer attrac tions and exhibits in keeping with such a reputation. However, we are determined also, to offer these attrac tions at the least possible cost to the public, and for that reason agreed last year to cut the price of admission to 50 cents this year.” Officials of the fair feel reasonably certain they have the best interest of the public in their efforts to give this county a fair surpassed by none in the South, and they are rather «nr ! prised that any one would circulate reports calculated to hurt attendance ■ at the fair. Those perrons who have been wor ried because of the “dollar admission i rumors” can rest assured there is ■ nothing tq them and that for 50 cents . they can get admission to a fair that is certain to eclipse anything yet > staged in this county.

Traders evidently were fear ful that further rains reported over Sunday were damaging open cotton in Texas, and this view of crop condi tions combined with relatively firm Liverpool cables and reports of an ac tive demand for cotton goods led to further advances. Tlie opening was firm at an advance of eighteen points to a decline of four points. Realizing caused some irreg ularity after the call, but offerings soon were absorbed and before the end of the first hour active months were 2 Oto 34 points net higher, with December selling at 24.70, or 260 points above the recent low level. Part, of the buying seemed to come from the trade, while brokers reported a broadening commission bouse de mand. with comparatively little hedge selling from the South.

New Y'ork, Sept. 14.— <JP) — One of the most sensational campaigns in the : history of New York City will d«-.' velop tomorrow into tSe nomination ' of democratic, republican and socialist 1 candidate.) for mayor, and the sens#” i tions seemed likely to continue until tlie election a month hence. The fireworks have been largely on the democratic side. John F. Hylan, elected mayor for two four-year terms with Tammany support, is opposed "-si for renomination by State Senator 8 James J. Walker. Tammany designee. wro has had the active support of Governor Smith. By both republican and democratic spokesmen the cam- i paign has been interpreted as a battle i between Governor Smith and W. R. Hearst for control of the democratic party in the state with a view to presidential politics in 1928. lie governor, giving up a vacation, came from Albany to stump for Walker. Exchanges between the governor and Mr. Hearst at long distance and be- ' tween the governor and the mayor at close range have been sharp and per- , : sonal. The mayor has ignored demands of Walker that he say i whether he will support the democratic nominee and J Tammany supporters, confident of sup- > port in the primaries, are looking for- 1 ward to the election with less assur ance because what seems to them the i possibility of Hylan heading an inde- \ pendent ticket. Republican hopes of electing the *i executive of this highly democratic city run high. In fact, the organiza tion candidate for the republican nom ffiSfton. Frank U Waterman, pFa"l manufacturer, has largely ignored his 11 opponents for the nomination', and centered Ms attacks on both Hylan and Walker, nnd saying they had been tplling the truth about each other, and that Tammany which supporte Hy lan for two terms, has been just as responsible as Hylan for eight years of misrule. Wnll Street betting odds are from three and one-half to four and one half to one against Hylan. Tammany leaders predict Walker’s victory by i 100.000 votes, assuming that fifty per ! cent of tre 794,652 eligible democrat t ic voters will go to the polls. . John T. Cohalan, campaign man ager, predicts a similar victory fo* the mayor. BELIEVE DROUGHT HAS FINALLY BEEN BROKEN Rains General Throughout Drought " Area, —Many Prayers For Rain.
