The plane touched its wheels to the ground and contin ued without stopping. Official time keepers marked the starting time as 11:56-36, but when they came to check np they found that the plane was not entered on the official list and all attempts to learn its identity had proved unsuccessful at a late hour tonight. - ' Rain Held Up Some Fliers Minneola, N.

Apparently with an agreed unanimity of action not oth- erwise characterizing the delibera- ; ii, "uus "lc mice giouyo iciuocvx ..u discuss specifically what was under discussion or what would be pre sented to the conference. Each group was understood to be ready with definite proposals on industrial problems affecting domestic peace the Labor group especially having a complete program already formulat ed, it was reported, but each seem ingly was waiting to see what the others were going to do before showing its own hand. From the public group came the authoritative intimation that the members representing the "innocent bystanders" in the war between Cap- ita ani Labor were prepared to ' abandon the attitude of watchful waiting and benevolent neutrality! which they at first thought was their best policy. Not only were , several concrete proposals said to be in the making, but the group sent to the Shipping Board for documents dealing with the American and Eng lish shipyards arrangements for ad- justing wages and forestalling strikes by means of permanent committees constantly considering grievances likely to cause industrial disruption. The opinion is growing that the Public Group, led by Bernard M. Baruch as chairman, will not rest until the right and left divisions of the conference accept some forward looking proposal to allay unrest and maintain steady production. - Labor's proposals are considered fore, who desires such protection as certain to- include reaffirmation - of he is unable to get otherwise from the right of collective bargaining those about him will hail the in and of the strike, the principle of spector as his friend and deliverer, the eight-hour day and perhaps the Already the working of the law has more advanced suggestions for prof- shown conclusively that the people it-sharing and participation in in- of North Carolina are not question dustrial control.

SANITARY INSPECTORS BEGIN THEIR WORK ! of the In nine different sections State the' people of North Carolina, on October 1, became acquainted with an entirely new experience. The Siate Sanitary Inspectors began jeir work in their respective dis- tiicts on that date, and this was the first instance of exactly this kind .in tha history of the nation. Tt happens that in this step, whicr is considered generally as the most progressive step ever taken by any State, North Carolina leads the way, as usual. The ' visitation of the State Sanitary inspectors, inereiore, is a new experience to Dotn me peu pie and to the inspectors them- selves There nas oeen-muca on the part or tne peopie as iu uu" , they would get along with the in- j ' spectors, and vice versa. . And, con- trary to the views of pessimists, the , people and the inspectors are liKing ' each other well, and are working in norfpct harmony. This couitt not be otherwise among those people who understand the purpose of the inspectors.. The object of the law itself is simply to protect one man against his careless or ignorant neighbor, and the inspector is merely charged with the faithful ex ecution of the law. Any one, there- that, arises is this "What is tS-i best type of construction to meet naval aviators were instantly killed near here late today when an H-S type flying bot( side-dipped and fell 500 feet into the bay.
