NEW YORK, Sept. 23 (by Associat
ed Press).—The national balloon race
scheduled to start from Birmingham,
Ala., this month and the international
contest for balloonists to start from
the same city in October are expected
by Aero Club officials in charge of
the races to set new records. This
hope is based upon the greater gas
capacity of the balloons and lessons
of construction learned in the war.
The national event, due to start on
September 25 will see 15 contenders
lined up, each aspiring to be one of
three who will defend the Gordon
Bennett Cup which has been in Amer
ica since being lifted from Frauce in
1913 by Ralph Upson, of Akron, O.
Upson, present international tj^le
holder, made his entry as soon as the
race was announced. Three bags
have been entered by the army air
service, one by the navy and another
by the army balloon school, Fort Oma
ha. The other 10 balloons have been
entered by civilians. The entry of the
baloon school will be piloted by A.
Leo Stevens, who, with Prof. David
Todd, of Amherst college, won
fame last spring by an attempt to
pick up radio-electric waves from
Mars through a receiving station 30,
000 feet above the earth.
The second race, which is to start
Octoboer 23, will be the fourth occa
sion on which the United States has
defended the Gordon Bennett inter
national trophy since its foundation
in 1906. The entries, six in all, are:
Italy, two; United States, three and
Belgium one.
Although America is the title hold
er by virtue of winning the last race
France has an unbeaten record for
distance, made in 1912 when Maurice
Bienaime covered 1,361 miles without
touching land, besting the American
record of 1,172 miles set in 1910 by
Alan R. Hawley.
The baloon “Belgica,” of 2,000 cubic
meters capacity has been entered by
the Aero Club of Belgium. It will
be piloted by Ernest Demuyter, who
contested in the race of 1912.
Soya Bean Oil
Shipped From
East in Oil Cans
TACOMA, Wash., Sept. ^4 (by Asso

bean oil from the far east through Pu
get sound ports has reached such pro
portions that both in Seattle and Ta
coma port commissions and private
companies have erected special huge
tanks to handle the trade. A few years
ago soya bean products were a novelty
in commercial circles here.
Soya bean oil is used in the manu
facture of soap, paint, varnish and
toilet preparations and a residue is
sold as food for cattle. Most of the
oil comes from Kobe, Japan. It is
brought in old kerosine cans or in
wooden receptacles and is shipped east
in tank cars.

INFORMATION
ON EXCHANGE
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 24 (by As
sociated Press).—Holders of tempo
rary Liberty Bonds of the first, sec
ond and third Liberty loans are fail
ing to take advantage of the opportun
ity to exchange their holdings for
permanent bonds bearing coupons to
maturity, according to John U. Cal
kins, governor of the Federal Reserve
bank of San Francisco, in a letter to
all banks, bankers and trust companies
of the Twelfth Federal Reserve dis
trict. Interest on these temporary
liberty bonds cannot be collected be
yond the number of coupons attached
to them anc4.it is of vital importance
to those who bought first, second and
third liberty loan bonds to turn them
in for permanent securities.
The relatively small amount of tem
porary coupon bonds of the first,
second and third liberty loans present
ed for exchange indicates that a large
number of bond holders are not now i
aware that temporary bonds of the!
above issues may, at this time, be!
exchanged for permanent coupon
bonds bearing coupons to maturity.
Governor Calkins said in his letter:
“This bank, as fiscal agent of the'
United States, is now prepared to
make prompt and full delivery of first,
second, and third liberty loan perma
nent coupon bonds for temporary
coupon bonds surrendered.”
The banks of the Twelfth federal
reserve district were also advised that
owing to unavoidable delays in pre
paring permanent bonds of the fourth
liberty loan, these fourth loan perma
nent bonds will not be available, as
planned until October 15. It is proba
ble that the exchange of temporary
fourth loan bonds for permanent secur
ities of that issue will not be begun
prior to February 1, 1921. However,
as soon as the date commencing such
exchange can be definitely determined,!
announcement will be made. The
banks are cautioned not to forward
temporary fourth loan bonds to the
federal reserve bank until advised that J
the federal reserve bank is in a posi
tion to make the exchange.
Individual temporary bond holders
of the first, second and third Liberty
loan bonds are requested to turn their
securities in to any local bank, which
will handle the exchange operations
through the federal reserve bank,
rather than to mail their bonds direct
to the federal reserve bank.

MIOWERA, New South Wales.
Sept. 24 (by Associated Press).—The
Prince of Wales had the time of his
i life here among the hard-riding,
straight-shooting outspoken ranchers
and, by his adaptability and good fel
lowship, made himself extremely pop
ular. He won their respect when he
entered five races against these pre
mier horsemen and won all the
events.
The ranchers are having a quiet
smile over an amusing but somewhat
embarrassing incident in which the
prince was involved. With his usual
“hail-fellow-well-met” bearing, the
prince on one- occassion asked every
one in the house to have a drink with
him.
After the drinks had been served
the heir to the richest throne in the
world discovered he had no money. He
called on Admiral Halsey, who is tour
ing with him for funds but the only
reply was: “I haven’t a shilling on me
sir,”
Finally another member of the roy
al party came to the rescue and the
drinks were handed around.

BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 24 (by As
sociated Press).—The Monroe Doc
trine is not a doctrine of “America
for the Americans” but of “America
for the North Americans,” declared
Dr. Lucio M. Moreno Quintana, an Ar
gentine lawyer and a grandson of the
former president of Argentine in an
address recently before the law stu
dents of the University of Buenos
Aires in which he attacked the propos
al made by President- Brum cf Uru- j
guay last April for the formation of
an “American League.”
Pres. Brum’s idea that the league
should be based on .a declaration
by all Latin-American countries simi
lar to the Monroe Doctrine which
would place them on a footing of
equality with the U. S. In maintain
ing that the doctrine was, asserted the
Doctor, to be a dangerous one for Lat
in America. He told the students
that the danger lay in “North Ameri
can imperialism,” for the Monroe Doc
trine was an imperialistic doctrine
solely intended to maintain North Am
erican hegemony over the rest of. the
continent.
Dr. Quintana contended that the
safety of Latin American countries
lay in the formation of a league ex
clusively among themselves, a Latin
American league of countries of the
same origin, analagous customs, sim
ilar language and professing the same
ideals and aspirations. It should be
formed “with Ahe end of uniting their
common interests and presenting a de
fensive ‘bloc’ against North American
imperialism and against any European
pretensions,” though he believed the
latter would be very remote.
The recognition of the Monroe Doc
trine in Article 21 of the pact of the
League of Nations was a matter, he
said, “upon whose consequences for
them, all the Latin-American countries
ought to meditate profundly.” Al
though Dr. Brum’s Pan-American con
cept was that of equality and frater
nity among all the nations of the two j
continents Dr. Quintana declared that j
any one who considered that the Uni-j
ted States would pretend to treat the j
rest of the countries of America as j
equals and brothers was utopian.
He cited what he called instances
of the “continuous transgression cf
the Pan-American concept by the Uni
ted States after the proclamation of j
the Monroe Doctrine among them,” j
ana tne successive separations oi
Mexico,” also “the armed intervention
of the United States with European
countries when it collected the public
debts of Venezuela,” “the threat of mil
itary intervention in Honduras and
the demand of the United States
v
upon Colombia that it enact a law for
the exploitation of petroleum on bases
determined by the Yankee govern
ment under threat that Colombia
would be deprived of its indemnity of
$25,000,000 voted by the North Ameri
can parliament as compensation for
an act whose injustice the Yankees
recognize—the separation from Col
ombia of Panama.” The latter in
instance, says Dr. Quintana, “well
characterizes the imperialistic ambi
tions of the republic of the north.”
In reality, he declared, it ought to
be said that the United States is “a
bastard brother in every respect to the
rest of the American countries. There
does not exist between them and us
the same tie of brotherhood that we
Latin-American countries have among
ourselves.”
The Monroe Doctrine, he continued,
“has served as an admirable instru
ment for the United States to separate
Europe from America and to estab
lish its hegemony over the latter, j
The United States has been at all
times preoccupied in obtaining con
cessions of every kind at the cost of |
the sovereignty of the rest of the j
American states.” He argued that the
doctrine was dangerous because it was 1
“North American imperialism hidden
under a principle of international
alw.”
Dr. Quintana concluded by saying
that the Pan-American league that
Dr. Brum proposes, would be “an or
ganization redounding exclusively to
the beiefit of the United States which
would convert itself judicially and of
ficially into the director of America
wies consequent impairment and evi
dent danger to the other countries of
our continent.”
Dr. Quintana’s address is now being
circulated in booklet form under the
title “Politica Americana” and is
dedicated to the late President Car
ranza of Mexico.
There are said to be 106 males to
100 females in the United States. The
disparity will be even greater when
the baseball season closes and the list

NEW YORK, Sept. 23 (by Associa
ted Press).—Military and civilian
aeronautical experts declare that the
completion of the recent trip to Nome
by the four army aviators was an
epochal in its military and commercial
importance as Bleriot’s first flight
across the English channel since it
opens Alaska to aeronautics.
Reports state that the Alaskans are
determined to bring about regular i
communication thruogh the air and!
now look to the government to foster
the new project.
As the result of the flight, it is said,
an aerial route has been photographed
and charted diagonally across the
United States, Canada and Alaska,
with tentative supply and air service
sites.
The air board states that the follow
ing has been accomplished by the
flight:
An effective aerial route to the ;
Northwest corner of the American
continent and Asia has been estab
lished. Inaccessible areas in Alaska
which have never been mapped have
been charted and photographed.
Usefulness of +he airplanes as a
means of transport, both for mail, pas
sengers and freight has been demon
strated. Necessity of landing fields,
and service stations throughout the
United States and its territories has
been shown.
Durability of modern airplanes and
motors has been proved and it has
been learned that flying is safe, even
over territory where transport by
railroad, automobile, and wagon is
considered extremely dangerous.
The report of Captain St. Clair
Street, who was in command of the
expedition, states that the flyers con
sidered the route across the Eastern
states, as having few landing fields
and not ideal in any instance. The'
middle west and Canada, he said, as]
fas as Edmonton, was ideal
“The expedition sighted innumer-j
able glaciers,” said Captain Street, j
“and rain, low fog and clouds were j
prevalent. Yukon and Alaska are ex-j
tremely rough and partly forested, i
and afford no natural landing places!
except on river bars, but the route!
from Wrangell to Nome is ideal forj
water planes.”

HIGHER TAXATION ONLY
HOPE FOR GERMANS

bankruptcy are the only alternative
possibilities for Germany, Dr. Koch,
German minister of home affairs, has
