THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, JUNE 14, 1929 PACE NINE PRIVATE PLANES NUMEROUS IN ® GREAT BRITAIN Men Go To Business by Air --Society Boys and Girls Fly London, June 14.--Flappers, titled grandmothers, bankers and young and old of all professions are becoming air-minded so fast that English manufacturers of light model sporting airplanes have become spirited competitors of automobile salesmen. There is one London businses man who every morning steps into his light plane at Stag-Lane air- fied and wings his way down to the south coast for a bit of salt sea air before tackling his day's work in the city. © There are society boys and girls who ship over to Le Touquet, fashionable English resort on the French coast, for a round of golf and tea, returning to their London homes in time for dinner and the theatre. The Englishman, because he is so fond of his week-end excur- sions, is taking up the airplane with a vim for it allows him to hop over to France, Belgium or Holland with a minimum loss of time, This method of travel com- pletely removes the delays and discomforts of crossing the chan- pel, which has always been a stumbling stone for internationai visitors, According to an official of the DeHaviland Alrcraft Company manufacturers of the light and popular Moth, there are at present more than 300 privately owned and piloted Moths in England. The number is growing rapidly every month, President Cosgrave, of the Irish Free State, often uses an airplane to keep his appointments, while ciety women in London have und it the most convenient meth- pd of getting to and from their pountry estates. There is a strong movement on foot among the country clubs to rovide landing fields for their embers, Several private estates plready have laid out fields for personal use and the convenience of friends who wish to make an aerial tea-time call, . Advocates of the light private plane say that it is cheaper to travel by plane than by boat and train, For about $4.50 it is pos- sible to fly to Paris fromm London. At Stag-Lane airdrome the prob- lem of housing has been solved by the construction of a number of small hangars. A machine is cared for and housed for about £15 a month, CHINESE TERRITORY INVADED BY SOVIET Troops Cross Siberian Bor- der and Establish Outposts DIRECT WAR MOVE Dictator of Manchuria Sends Urgent Message for Aid London, June 14.--~The Express today prints a dispatch from Pek- ing, China, saying that Soviet Rus- sia has launched the first direct war move against China, following the recent raids, on Soviet con- sulates in Manchuria, Soviet troops were reported to have crossed the Siberian border and to have estab- lished outposts east of Manchuli, The 'Soviets were said to be rushing reinforcements in special trains over the trans-Siberian rail- way.

USED CARS YOUNG LONDONER ALLEGED SLAYER Girl Strangled at Port Huron and Fiancee Missing London, Ont., June 14.--<Police nets have been spread in London and dis- trict since carly yesterday morning in the hope of catching Alfred Loune, the 22-year-old son of Mr, and Mrs. William Loune of Manor Park, who, it is alleged, last night strangled his 17-year -old fiancee, Breatrice Frye, in the home of her brother, Robert Frye, in Port Huron. Until two years ago the youth lived with his parents here and since that time he has been working in Port Huron and boarding near the home of the dead girl. In February he and the young woman visited at the Loune home here and the young mans parents were much pleased with the girl, whom Alfred said he was soon to marry. Mr, and Mrs. Loune were surprised some time ago when they received a letter from him telling them that the parents of the bride- to-be had objected and the wedding had been indefinitely postponed. Port Huron police say Loune and his sweetheart quarrelled last night be- cause she had been going to parties with other youths, and the slaying followed. "From observations I made," said Mr. Loune, who operates a turkey farm on his premises at the end of Emery Street, "my son was madly in- fatuated with the girl. Everwhere he went he took Miss Frye. He gave her a nice diamond ring, and both Mrs. Loune and myself were somewhat surprised that the wedding had not already taken place. We were aware that the girl'st mother did not want her to get married, but we never con- sidered her objections were so strong as to break off the engagement."

Asked what his own part would he, he replied depreciatingly: "1 will be just a gencral deliver- er." Dr, Mayo, for a year, has been working to bring the plan to frui- tion. A great part of the work is to be carried on by research work- ers of Northwestern university, Loyola, the University of Chizago and the University of Illinois. There have been conferences with representatives of the schools in preparation for such co-operation. "All of the local committees and groups which already have taken up the cancer problem and have become interested in it will be represented on the local board," Dr. Mayo sald.

In fact, the more severe the shock, the more effectively Houdailles operate. Different from any other shock absorber, the Houdaille connecting link between the frame and the axle of the car is a steel arm, not just a fabric strip to wear outand be replaced.
