Located over Bwhiaa Bros. Grocery & Market RIVERSIDE DRIVE {. " - Washington.--The creation of the world's newest proposed state has Just been proclaimed from what heretofore has been known as "Manchuria." The announced sponsor for the projected government is the northeastern administrative committee. So far, four names have been bestowed on the new state, in rapid succession: Ankuo, Daido (meaning "(.Jreat Union"), Manclioukuo ("Land of Manchuria"), and Tatung ("Great Unity"). Until a name is finally settled upon, the new territorial ttnit might well 'be called, descriptively, "Manchuria plus Jehol," says a bulletin from the National Geographic society. "Although the natne of the proposed state Seems to shift over night," continues the bulletin, "its territorial make up is reasonably definite. In it are included the three provinces that heretofore have made up Manchuria; Liaoning (also known as Fengt'en and as Mukden province), Kirin, and Heilung (also known ag Amur province). To these have been added Jehol, hitherto the adjacent province of Inner Mongolia, to the west. The proposed state thus starts with approximately 443,000 square miles, an area almost as great as that of the Union of South Africa. "The fledgling state of Manchuria and Jehol lies far in the north and has a severe winter climate. * World's Most Fertile Lands. Asia's new territorial tinlt Is a population of approximately 33,500,000, yet large regions are sparsely peopled. The greatest density of population is in Liaoning, the southernmost and smallest province; and the least density fs In Heilung, the northernmost and largest Among the cultivated sections are some of the most fertile lands to be found in the world. Large areas of tillable land are still undeveloped. 'The new state is the world's leading grower of soy beans, producing annually nearly a quarter of a billion bushels. Approximately one-half the production is exported. In the months following harvest, long freight trains loaded with beans, roll ceaselessly down to the ports where ?l)ips of every nation wait to transport them to all continents. This bean traffic is one of the chief sources of income for the Manchurian railways. "In addition to beans, there is a heavy production of wheat, millet, maize, and grain sorghum on the rich acres of Manchuria and Jehol. The live stock Industry reaches large proportions in some regions. In the north are extensive forests, and farther south are vast coal fields and sizable deposits of iron ore. "In choosing a capital for the new state, the committee passed over Mukden, long the capital of Manchuria, and Harbin, the metropolis, and designated Changchun (also called Ivuanchengtzu), the third city in size. This choice may have been dictated by a desire to place the administrative activities in a central location ; for with the addition of Jehol, Changchun becomes much nearer th<^ geographic center of the new state than Mukden, and much nearer the population center than Harbin. "Melting Pot" of Manchuria. "Like many other cities of Manchuria, Changchun has an Old Town and a New Town. The New Town has sprung up since 1905 and centers around the Imposing station of the Japanese railway. It has plazas and parks, its streets are broad, and its buildings modern. A mile and a third away lies the Old Town, inclosed by a wall, save on the side bounded by a tributary of the Sungari river. The main street 4s surprisingly wide, but there is marked congestion in other streets. Together, the towns have a population of between 8©#00 and 100,- 000. "Changchun has been called *the melting pot of Manchuria.' On its streets, constantly astir with bustle and excitement, one brushes shoulders with Manchus, Mongols and Chinese, Japanese, Russians. Europeans and Americans. Primitive carts loaded with sacked beans pass in long strings, competing with occasional motor trucks. Passengers ride in Russian drofkies, Jinriklshas, and American motor cars. "Added evidence that Changchun is a melting pot comes when one views Its varied houses of worship, There are Christian churches, Lamaist, and Shinto temples, Mohammedan mosques, and numerous shrines. Among the latter is one that might be called a Mammon shrine. It is for the veneration of an oriental god of wealth." 8L0CUM % • T ^ --v'; Dowell was a recent btftfliiei* caller at Grayslake.

Portland, Ore.--Combatting temperatures of from 30 to 60 degrees below zero, mountains, ice and heavy snows while flying an airmail run isn't easy under any circumstances, but William It. Graham, California and Alaska pilot, has made it as easy as possible. The pilot-inventor, in addition to being a good flyer, is well versed in Alaskan flying by virtue of having spent two years with the Northern Air- Transport lines. All of the things he learned during those two years are incorporated in a special Stinson-Detroiter plane he is now taking Into the North. . Graham stopped off in Portland recently on his flight to Nome, where he will operate an air mail contract, for the post office,' between Nome and Unalaketet, a run of 200 miles. Capt. Sir Hubert Wilkins, experienced Arctic flyer, himself spent two hours examining Graham's shj^p and was quick to praise the details for the comfort and safety of pilot and passengers in sub-zero flying. Greatest of all the improvements is the kerosene burner and the unique heating system for both cabin and motor. A five-gallon tank supplies fuel for a small furnace installed under the pilot's seat. Radiation from the furance keeps the cabin warm, and fresh air is taken in through a small vent in the bottom of the cabin. The heated air circulates through the motor hood, keeping the motor at Its best Operating heat Special metal shod skis, which Graham claims will land on either rough or smooth Ice, or even in Boft snow, take case of the landing equipment. A combination sending and receiving radio set, with unlimited range and power enough for 250 hours operation, 1s installed in the ship. With it Graham claims he can listen to any gtatton la the world. Julian Street has been qualifying for the Explorers chib. He recently discovered New Yob-k. True, Mr. Street has been a mal) of Manhattan for years past, but this was another city. It was the New York of the dawn age. Because of an early oper atlon on a member of his family, Mr. Street was obliged to reach the hos pital by 6 a. m. Knowing the night before that he was to make the trip, he conferred with Mrs. Street as to transportation. "Take a taxi," she sai<L 'Don't be silly," he responded. "What would a taxi be doing out at that hour." "1 think there win be taxis," said Mrs. Street, "but, of course, one could always charter a milk wagon." !' Emerging from his door a few momerits before six, Mr. Street found a New York he did not know. The air smelled crisp and clean, free of gasoline fumes. The voice of the city was still. But there was a taxi, Mr. Street now believes the taxi was driven by a man training for the motor races on the Indianapolis speedway. The streets apparently were empty and. the driver took full advantage of the fact. Mr, Street maintains that through the window h£ saw what appeared to be one of those movies, where they speed up the film, of a deserted village He thinks they passed other taxis; It was Just like two limited trains passing in opposite directions, if the engines had cut loose from the cars and were going right along without them. He saw some objects he opines might have been milk wagons, and claims he heard the voice of a newsboy, blown away by the rushing air. He thinks a railroad station or hotel flashed past, but Isn't sure, as he was too busy hanging on and yelling at the driver. But It was very bracing. Mr. Street still insists we ail should rise early In the morning And see the city free from traffic. It would be a great hour for a walk, he maintains. • • • It was Wlllard Fairchlld who discovered the horse and sleigh. This was In the hills of Connecticut at a village which has no railroad station and plenty of snow. The horse and sleigh belonged to a farmer, who before trusting the outfit to Mr. Fairchild. asked him whether he was an experienced driver. Mr. Fairchild assured the farmer he had been around with horses a great dear, but neglected to mention that it had been with the artillery during the war, when he rode the caisson and others handled the horses. Still, all went well. Mr. Fairchild got his family into the sleigh and when the fanner handed him the reins clucked in the approved fashion, which apparently threw the animal into first speed, and away they went The horse took them for a very nice ride and brought them back safely. ' It was then that the difficulty developed. * • • The farmer wasn't around, but his small boy said his father had told him to ask Mr. Fairchild Just to unhitch the horse and tie him up in the stall in the barn. It seems that when you stood alongside this horse, It seemed about the size of a small elephant, which made some of the buckles and things hard to reach. But Mr. Fairchild undid them all, except that he kept the bridle and reins intact. When he had managed to get the horse out of the shafts and all the other straps and things off the horse, he realized he never had known how many parts there were to one horse's harness. Taking the reins Into the barn, he passed them around a post at a corner of the stall. Then, by walking away with them--a good deal as you might hoist a mainsail--he pulled the horse into shelter without taking a chance of being stepped on. That was a smart Idea, as when the horse reached the post, It automatically put on the brakes. This accomplished, Mr. Fairchild, who was now out In the yard, returned to the barn. Being careful to permit no slack, he wound the reins hajf a dozen times around the post and tied a good firm knot He then went out again and collected the pieces of harness and laid them on the floor under some pegs, where other harness was hanging. He had paid the farmer In advance, so he didn't wait for him to come back. But he knows the old chap will be pleased at all the care he took to leave his property in good order. A lot of city fellows might not have taken so much trouble with things. (®. 1*31, Ben Syndicate.)--WNU Ssrvtea, JOHRSBUR0 About Ourselves ' " Self conquest is the greatest of sll victories.
