The farmer submitted to an ex- mination and was informed that e had a growth that would have 0. be removed. The '"ddctor" pro- dium oil, which, he said, would uced a bottle of what he called emove the growth. The cost of he removal of the growth, he es- imated at $3,000.

Police received the complaint hree days ago, he said, and an in- estigation is being carried on by house with two other men in a large blue sedan, and "introduced himself as a specialist from Lon- don, trying out a new eye-glass, and also advertising it. A woman at the farmhouse de- clined to have a test made, but her brother submitted to inspee- tion and was informed that he had a growth on his right eye. The "doctor" then called in one of his companions, and introduced him as a doctor also. After a whis- pered cdnsultation, the two produ- ced a bottle of yellow liquid, which they called "radium oil." They growth immediately, if the author- stated that they would remove the ities were not put wise. The man consented and the oil was applied to the eye. He has suffered no ill effects. The salesman of the party was a man of 35 or 40, five feet six, with black eyes and brown hair, or stout build and wearing a light grey suit and fedora hat and His distinguished colleage ap- peared about 55, five feet nine, fair complexion, steel blue eyes, wearing a grey suit and felt hat and -gold-framed glasses.

It will deal with the en- croachment of bureaucracy 'un modern life, and the little provi- sionally selected for it is "Power and the People" says the Daily News. The publishers will be Er- nest Benn, Ltd. Lord Hewart will direct atten- tion to a growing problem to which he has aready referred in legal judgments and in public speeches. The standpoint from which he approached his task may be indicated by recalling a speech which he delivered at the annual less encroachment of that arro- gant pretentions of bureaucracy in our midst," he said: "The name of self-government would be an irritating mockery if it became: a vast army of anonymous officials hidden from view, placed above the law and administering a fopsy- turvy system whereby the servants of the public would' be its masters. That is a proposition upon which do not propose to hold my tongue, so long as I have tongue to use." In a. memorable address to the American Bar Association at Buf- falo last year he argued that the Rule of Law involved the absence of arbitrary power on the part of the Government, and equality be- fore the law. Was there not, he asked, an in- creasing development of bureau- cratic pretensions, the aim of which was to withdraw more ana tion of the Courts and to set them, apart for purely official determin- ation? In the last few months the Lord Chief Justice has reiterated the warning he gave at Buffalo. At the Manchester Reform Club in Decems- ber last he argued that it was cer- 9 TON MACHINES FLEW 16,500 MILES British Naval Squadron Made Flight to Australia Without Mishap | London, July 27.--The flight of four Royal Air Force "ironclad" flying boats, each weighing nine tons, from Plymouth to Melbourne, 16,500 mies, is termed the great- est fight of its kind in the history of aviation. The machines left En- gland last October, and calling on the way at 70 ports, reached Mel- bourne at the end of June without having had any mishaps. No such formation flight had ever been made before with any kind of ma- chine. § The fight went oa steadily through tropical heat and storm and the machines made the first aerial coasting of India, accom- plished the greater part of an aer- The great flying boats are now on the way to Singapore, the per- manent base for a British Pacific air fleet of the future, of which the craft will form a basis. From Singapore at various times they will make long distance flights in the Far East. Complete success marked the ex- periment of all-metal hulls in trop- ical conditions. They withstood every kind of test. Their wing span is 75 feet and fully loaded each plane weighs nine tons. Two 500-horse power Napier Li- on water-cooled engines propel each craft at a maximum speed of 108 miles an hour. The reliabil- ity of these engines, which in 144.- 000 engine miles did not miss a beat, has astonished the technic- ians. The machines are biplanes. Group Captains H. M. Cave- Browne-Cave was in command. aEch machine carried a crew of four, having sleeping and cooking accommodation as well as food lockers, rigger's stores, tailor's kit, medical supplies and two days' sup- ply of fresh provisions in case f accident. Hammocks weer slung from the cabin roof at night. PAGE NINE 10 PERSONS DROWN IN CHILEAN FLOODS Several Bridges Destroyed and Communications Interrupted Santiago, Chile, July 27.-- Ten persons were drowned and numerous houses swept away in floods at Aysen, according to dis- patches Tuesday to the Nacion. Several bridges also were destroy- ed. Communications have been in- terrupted with the port of Aysen and with Coyaique. The steamer Imperial, which was anchored inside the harbor of Ay- sen, was sunk an the steamer Huandad was damaged. Owing to the wide distances be- tween houses the number of casu- alties have not beem ascertained with accuracy.

The "gag" employed by the rickster, was an advertising cheme. He drove up to the farm- man, who did not leave the car as about 30 years of age, clean shaven, with brown hair, of stout build and wearing a light gray dinner of the Law Society at Shef- field in September.
