AS prbss ßD DISPATCHES VOLUME XXVII CHAMBERLAIN IS FORCED DOWN NEAP M Broke Long Distance Record But Exhaustion Os Gasoline Supply Kept Them From Goal PLANE DAMAGED IN LANDINGiND TIME Occupants Not HurLHftw ever, and Will Go on to Berlin, Which They Hope to Reach by Air. PROPELLOR~ON j PLANE DAMAGED Plane Forced to Land 110 Miles From Berlin First Time When the Galosine Supply Was Exhausted. Berlin, June 6. —04 s )—For the sec ond time in less than a fortnight! an American nirplnne has spanned the vast Atlantic ocean, and landed safe ly on the Enroi>enn continent. The non-stop flight of the Belfnncn monoplane piloted by Charles D. Chamberlain, with Charles A. Levine as companion ended at Eisleben. Saxony. 110 miles southwest of Ber lin. at 5 o'clock this morning (mid night New York dnylight saving time) when the fuel supply was exhausted. Taking to the air again the flyers made a brave attempt to reach Berlin but apparently lost their way in Cloud hanks ami adverse winds encountered in the morning, and with a brokeu propeller came down at last iir a marshy field at the village of fUinge, near KoMbdu. Brnndentm-rg, TO miles southeast of the capital. The wheels of the Columbia sttled into the marshy ground and further progress wns impossible. The plane iiad traveled 120 miles from Eislebeu and if headed in the right direction would have landed at Berlin. The wheels of the Columbia settled Into the marshy ground, and further progress was impossible. Starting from Boosevelt Field at 0:05 a. in. Saturday, they had been in the air 42 hours when forced to laud at Eisleben as compared, with 33 1-2 hours for Captain Lindbergh's 3.010 mile flight from New York to Paris, a little over two weeks ago. | The Columbia was first sighted and identified over German soil when Chamberlain flew over Dortmund, 260 miles from Berlin, swoopfng close to the ground and asking directions by shouting "To Berlin, to Berlin.” That was at M o’clock this morn-v ing. Then came conflicting reports. Airplanes sent from Berlin to welcome and escort the plane returned without finding it. The welcoming committee gave up its vigil and went home, be lieving that Chamberlain had been forced down at some isolated point. Then came the news of the landing at Eisleben. Amerisan Ambassador SchurnUui went home, dressed in warm clothing and n golf cap, and prepared to fly to Eisleben. Meanwhile it was learned that the Columbia had again taken to the air. Then followed her sighting over Magdeburg, and the forced landing at Klinge, with the damaged propeller putting immediate resumption of the flight out of the question. It was a mysterious flight from the start, for when the Columbia hopped off Chamberlain and Levine kept their destination secret. The possibility' was reported of their swinging south east over Europe to Borne, or at any rate continuing as far as their gaso line would carry them. Their fuel supply was considered sufficient for , a 48-hour flight under normal condi tions. Chamberlain’* Parent# Overjoyed. Chnaha, Nebr., June 6.—(A 9 )—A flash of joy, the dispatch telling of Clarence Chamberlain’s landing at Klslaben In his Bellanca monoplane Columbia, broke a long spell of anx ious waiting in the Associated Press office here for Mr. and Mrs.- E. C. Chamberlain, hls» parents. Both were outwardly affected by the relief of their son's safe arrival on a record non-stop flight. They had been there since early yesterday morn ing, eagerly scanning the reports com ing over the wires. Forced Down. Kottbus, Germany, June 6.—(A 9 )— Motor trouble and a shortage of gaso line caused the descent of the Ameri can trans-Atlantic plane Columbia, said Clarence D. Chamberlain, arriv > ing here by motor this afternoon from KHnge, where the Columbia is em bedded in mud where it landed. In alighting the Columbia propeller struck the ground, putting the plane out of commission. Chamberlain and Levine, who had just completed a flight of approximately 4,000 miles, gave little indication that they had passed through a great physical or deal. The aviators were brought to Kottbua in a private automobila and The Concord Daily Tribune North Small City Daily They Are In Germany Clarence Chamberlain, left, and Charles A. Levine shake hands just 1 before boarding the Columbia far their flight from New York to Germany. They landed 70 miles from Berlin this morning, being forced down by lack of fuel. went to the Hotel Ansorge. where they were welcomed by local officials and asked to inscribe their names in the town’s ‘‘Golden Book,” and handed an elaborately carved goblet and invited to partake of an “honor drnnght.” The town officials offered to send the Americans to Berlin by automo bile, but both Chamberlain and Irvine said they were determined to make the last lap of the journey by air. “We were forced to come down because of a shortage in fuel and also motor trouble, and while the spot that we picked out looked good from the air, we soon discovered we had dropped on dangerously swampy ground,” said Chamberlain. The American aviator declared that it was his intention, and that of Chas. A. Levine who accompanied him on the trans-Atlantic voyage to fly to the Tempelhofer airdrome near Berlin late this afternoon in a Lufthansa plane. It is believed, however, that he is likely to decide to wait for repairs to his own plane, flying to Berlin tomorrow. Ambassador To Greet Them. Washington, June 6.—(A 9)—Ambas sador Sehurman. at Berlin, advised the State Department today of his intention to fly at once from Berlin to the landing point of the Bellanca plane to meet Chamberlain and I.e vine. The message said the ambas sador had been advised by the fioliee that Chamberlain had made an, em ergency landiifg somewhere near Ber lin. but it did not give the name of the city. President Sends Message. .Washington, June 6.—C4*)—A tele gram congratulating Clarence Cham berlain on his flight to Germany was sent today by President Oootidge. Covered 3,905 Miles. Washington,* June 6.—(A 9)—Cham berlain and Levine were credited with a .flight of 3,005 miles today by the Geological Survey, which measured the distance from Boosevelt Field to Eisleben. The survey’s figures on the Lind berg flight were 3,610 * miles. The computation was made at the request of Carl Schory. secretary of the Nat ional Aeronautical Association. “Good Luck” Undy’s Wish. Cherbourg. France, June 4. Charles Lindbergh paused in the rush of his departure for home today to 'wish Charles Levine and Clarence Chamberlin, success on their attempt to cross the Atlantic in the plane Columbia. “I wish them the best of luck,” be told the United Press. “I regret I cannot be here to meet them when they arrive. They have a good .plane •nd a good motor and I believe they can make it.” The average German foot is too thick to wear the American mad; MORE CHARGER MADE BY CHICAGO WRESTLER 1 Said He Had to'Guarantee Not to Defeat Lewis in Two Matches. Chicago, June 6. —(A 9 ) —William Demetral. a professional wrestler for twenty years, testified today that he | was forced to put up $5,000 and give a quit c’.aim deed to his home in Chi- ! cago as a guarantee that he would not throw Ed (Strangler) Lewis in their two matches decided at Cleveland within the last year. Demetrai’s startling revelation was made at the resumption of the legis lative inquiry into the Illinois State Athletic Commission ami the boxing situation in Chicago. Demetral testified he was a member of the ring in control of wrestling, that he engaged in "fake matches, but finally broke with the ring after the second mateh with Lewis.

New York, June 6.—(A*) —Two over joyed women, relieved of a terrific strain, today were preparing to jour ney to Berlin. They were Mrs. Clarence D. Cham beriain and Mrs. Charles A. Levine, whose husbands flew to Germany. The wives, however, prefer to make their trip by the more prosaic method of a steamer. Hour upon hour of anxiety passed. With a flood of joy when the two women yesterday received thy news that the Bellanca plane Columbia car rying the two men had reached the continent. When reports indicated that Berlin was to be the plane’s des tination they sent cablegrams of con gratulations and word that they were sailing to join them. Mi*. Chamberlain had retired at a New York hotel, but expressed joy when news of her husband’s safe ar rival in Eisleben, Germany, was re ceived.

She added that great credit is due G. M. Bellanca, designer of the plane, and Mr. Irvine, owner, who she said, made the flight possible. "I am elated ’beyond words.” said Mrs. Levine, wife of the co-pilot sind backer of the flight. "M.v surprise at my husband taking off has been con verted to admiration. I realize now that my hopes and prayers have been granted.” -_ THE STOCK MARKET Prices Continued to Surge Forward Despite Profit Taking and Bear Selling. New York, June o.—(A 9 )—Stock prices continued to surge forward to day. despite intermittent profit taking and bear selling.

FETZER Secretary and Treasurer > Asst, Secretary Want Budget to Balance At End of Fiscal Year in 1929 Sir Walter Hotel. Tribune ' Bureau By J. C. BARKER VI LI,. Raleigh. June 4.—Although there will be u surplus or "eeredit balance” in the state treasury of $1,700,000 on •Tithe 30. at the close of the present Tndhnrflnf. according to the latest es timates of the Budget Bureau, it will require virtually every cent of this surplus, as wejl as all the revenue that will be derived from taxation during the next two fiscal years to make the budget balance on Tune 30, 1920. The reason for this, according to Governor MCLean. is that the 1927 General Assembly not snly increased its appropriations considerably beyond tiie amount recommended by the Bud get Commission, but at the same time decreased taxes or failed to make certain levies ns recommended by the budget commission, with the result that it will take virtually all of the $1,700,000 surplus to make the bud get come out even by Tune 30. 1929. Thus, while the total revenue of the state for the current biennium will have exceeded expenditures by nearly $2,000,000. this amount will be carried over into the next bien nium. during which the expenditures will considerably exceed the actual revenue collected. In fact, the only reason it was .possible for the recent general as sembly to increuse the educational equalization fund from its present figure to $3,250,000, was because of the credit balance already ou hand, at that time estimated at $1,293,000, and it decided at that time to convert the surplus or credit balance into "estimated revenue" instead. A por tion of this surplus also made pos sible the increased appropriation for CARROLL ILLNESS IS COSTLY TO V. S,. Special Nurses Caring for New York Theatrlenl Man as He Lingers in Hospital. 'Greenville, S. June- & —Earl; Carroll’s stay in the city hospital hdi} rVnst' flip-United State approximately: ‘s4oo, exclusive of pay for special nurses. Robert Kirksey, Marshall for the Western District of South Caro lina. declared today. Kirksey said Carroll costs the Gov ernment about $55 a week, plus the wages of a siieeial day nurse at $5 a day. A special nurse at night also was necessary during the first part of Carroll's stay here, entailing addi tional expense of $5 a day. The New Y'ork theatrical producer, sentenced to prison for tier jury in the ‘'bath-tub party” ease, has been here seven weeks, having been admitted as a patient April 13. The $55 a week includes pay for the private ward in which Carroll is a patient, and for the locul physician who attends Federal patients. This compilation of expense does not. of course, include the salary of Deputy United States Marshall Henry Cunningham, of New York, who is here in charge of Carroll. The patient is now able to sit up from one to two hours each day. but is said to be exhausted when night arrives. No improvement in his nerv ous condition is noted, physicians de clare, and no information is available here as to when Carroll is to begin his prison term. Raleigh Directory Carries Names of YVlves. Raleigh, June 3.—(INS)—A new feature of the Raleigh City directory, which comes off the press in October, will be that it contains the names of wives along with their husbands. . Prior to this issue, the directory has contained only the name of the hend of the family, and unless women had some work outside their household duties, their names did not appear. pensions for confederate soldiers and widows. Consequently, during the next bien nium. the state will be able to ex pend more than it will receive ill revenue, and without incurring deficit. If the revenue during the next two years comes up to the estimates of the budget bureau, there is a possi bility that a credit balance of some thing like $200,000 may lie left; but if the revenue falls short, then there is the possibility of merely breaking even. And if the revenue should fall much short of the estimate, there would be the possibility of a small deficit. However, if revenue collec tions maintain anything like their present average, this is exceedingly unlikely. "The idea lias gained prevalence in some quarters," Governor. Mcl>an said in discussing the credit, balance, "that this large sum is being kept on hand in the treasury, and that it should be distributed in such a man ner as to bring about a reduction in tnxes. But in reality, it is being us ed at present to anticipate tax col lections, and to prevent the necessity of borrowing. But eventually, it will have the same effect as a reduction of taxes, since if it were not on hand, if would have been necessary to have increased taxes considerably beyond their present, point, in order to have found sufficient revenue to meet the appropriations authorized by the last general assembly! And without it, the large increases made ill the pen sions and equalization fund would have been impossible. Thus, indi rectly, the people of the state will bene fit by escaping any increase in tuxes, and in the ease of the equalization fund, vt-ilf really have their tnxes re duced." • SAYS WORLD DEMANDS TRAINING OF YOUTHS Personality Plus Training Needed And Demanded Now in Industry. Atrojirn, Jffne 6.—(INS)— ipertHoAlitjr yjil«s train tug is tHe (le- Sent., wfiirti is gfiriifiiJU TfntpWnSrniiy by day, by Southerners, her youth* must show these qualifications or else they will be the servants of imported leaders, Dr. John B. (’lark, in charge of the business course at Auburn as head of the department of economics, declared in an address to students of Alabama Polytechnic Institute. •‘Personal habits, thoughtfulness, am bition, promptness, dependability and industry are among the most common and desirable qualities entering into personality." Dr. Clark declared. He pointed out that among these qualities, lack of honesty has probably lost more jobs than any of the others. “Although you may be lacking in many of these,” lie continued “they may be cultivated. And remember that lack of honesty, lack of courtesy and of industry has lost many a job. Honesty is the best policy." Industry is rapidly pushing to the fore in the South, lie said, and pointed out that as the shoe industry moves westward the cotton, iron and coal industries are fast moving southward. ‘•The South is fast becoming indus trialized." he declared, “you are by birth and temperament adopted to .the carrying on of this work. “YVill you train yourselves to direct the forward-going movement in this virgin field, or shall we import men and women to do it? “If we do so, you'll be their ser vants.” Dr. Clark pointed out the numerous phases of business for which Southern youth may prepare—banking, account ing, advertising, business management, insurance investment, transportation, marketing, journalism, salesmanship anil dozens of others. “A people without basic knowledge of business is living in the dark ages." he said, “the same as in the days of alchemy. All is mystery and magic. "\Ye must learn the laws of econ omic forces as truly as the laws of physical forces. Indeed the former are far more complicated. “The person today without a know ledge of economics is in darkness. Every student in the Southern states, as well as every other state, should be required to pursue at least one course in economics."

New York, June ti. —(A 9 )—The cot ton market opened easy today at a decline of 17 to 25 points, active months soon showing net losses of 24 to 26 points under heavy selling, in-! spired by reports of rain or showers in west Texas. Stop orders were uncovered on the decline to 16.60 for October and 16.iH) for January but there was considerable buying on the reaction of about 70 points from re cent high levels, and after the first rush of selling subsided prices steadied up 5 or 6 points on covering. There may have been some buying at the decline on private reports that the went Texas rains had not been general, and the volume of business tapered off somewhat toward.the end of the first hour. Trading became quieter after the heavy early selling had been absorbed, nnd prices steadied up on covering or rebuying. October rallied to 16.72 and January to 17.00. but prices were a few points off from these figures at midday, with the market showing net losses of about 16 to 20 points.
