While the trend of public opinion in Great Britain relative to trans-At- lantic flights was that "the game was not worth the candle," measures of re- striction would never come before the House of Commons, in his opinion, and as far as the British Air Ministry was concerned, its members had no desire to curb such ventures. Its members attended strictly to their duty of seeing that no airplane | left the ground without receiving a ership.

Burgett, now 25 years old, was sery- ing a sentence of from 10 to 21 vears for the robbery September 13, 1923, of the Quindaro State Bawk in Kansas City, Kansas. He pleaded guilty to the robbery before a judge of the District Court. At the Military School he was known as a model student, made excellent grades and was a star on the football team. Burgett had been in the penitentiary less than a year when relatives ap- neared to Governor Davis for a parol in order that Burgett might undergo treatment in a samitarium for a head injury which Burgett had received while a child. Governor Davis refused the first plea. At the hearing yesterday in Topeka on the application for a permanent parole, the board received testimony that Burgett had been completely cur- ed of the head ailment. Burgett's cure, . according to the physician who has been attending him since he was allowed to leave the pri- son, has been brought about through a series of lumbar punctures *o drain a fluid causing pressure on the brain. 7 \ 5 | ; | Fall Assizes Court today, when he | pieadled guilty | FIVE-YEAR SENT, ENCE 1S GIVEN FARMMHAND Guelph, Sept. 20.--Fiye years m Portsmouth Penitentiary was the sen- tence imposed on Marquis 1.
