King Wants Pay
For Island Plane
Field, Australia
(Bv The Associated Press)
Melbourne, Australia,
Jan. 22, —Recently the Aus
tralian commonwealth gov
ernment decided to do a lit
tie strengthening of empire
links by the construction of
an emergency landing field
and airdrome on little
known Bathurst island, off
the north coast, which is
in a direct air mail line be
tween Australia and Eng
land.
Immediately the so-called
king of the black islanders.
Mariana, demanded pay
ment for the land, and the
authorities probably will
give him something to
make sure of the good-will
and help of the tribesmen
toward any airman forced
to land there from short
age of gasoline after cross
ing the Timor sea.
Manana is not actually
king of Bathurst island.
But he was put forward as
the best bargainer because
he could speak the best
English. He is the youngest
son of a former king who,
on being taken to Darwin
in response to an expressed
wish, died of fright shout
ing, “Debbil, Debbil!” at
the sight of an automobile.
