Tired Fliers Make Visit to West Point Showering Field With flags NEW YORK, Sept. (AP) Dlendonne Coste and Maurice Bellonte, tired and bedraggled, bcrt $25,000 richer than when they took off from Long Island last Thursday on tbeir night to Dallas, Texas, to qualify lor the Easterwood prize, retarned to New York todays They asked lor only one thins on their aTriral at Valley Stream alter a six and a halt hour flight from Louisville today, and that was rest and a chance to steep. - Accordingly, all engagements far tonight and tomorrow were cancelled and they retired to their suite in a Park Avenue hotel, where they said they would stay until tomorrow aft ernoon when they leare for Washington to recelT 'welcome from President Hoover. Tired as they were, they swung their transoceanic Ques tion. MaTk north up the Hudson when they reached the statu of liberty, in New York harbor, this afternoon and paid a flying visit -Ho the military academy at West Point. Visit Stops Grid Practice for Time Swooping low over the parade ground there they unloosed a cloud of small American flags which fluttered down to the green Afield as the red plane swooped and dipped its wings la salute. Football practice was stopped and the cadets thronged the pa rade ground as the plane flew over. Then they made a mad scramble through shrubbery and on top of the building after the email souvenirs the fliers dropped. The nose of the Question Mark then was turned toward Cmrtiss field, where its epic flight from Paris to New York eaded last Tuesday night. Another Welcome Given by Gotham The mayor's committee of welcome awaited them there, and after seeing their plane safely housed, the two fliers climbed into an automobile and were driven back to the city. During the last six days the two Frenchmen have flown over 7,000 miles, 4,000 of it over the ocean. On their trip to Dallas, which was broken on the way back by an overnight stop at Louisville, nhey flew approxi mately 5,200 miles. Their plans after Monday have not: been definitely formulated, but! include a good will tour of the United States. Just when the will, take off on that tour, or what cities they will visit has not. been decided definitely. 'S lr SPEAK HAY DETROIT, Sept. 6 (AP) Contests for the republican nom inations for ten major offices and for two democratic congressional nominations will be decided by the voters of Michigan in the statewide primary next Tuesday. The republican nomination in each race is regarded as practi cally equivalent to election. The campaigns have been de vold of general issues except in the race for senator where Sena tor James Couzens' opponent. Chase S. Osborn, a former gover nor, has dwelt upon "party regu larity" and in a few congressional districts where the prohibition question has been raised. Couzens has accepted the brand of "independent ' and irregular" and neither he nor Osborn has discussed the wet-dry issue. Os born was described by the Michi gan anti-saloon league as "staunch prohibitionist" but he was not specifically endorsed. Cousens' position is the prohibi tion amendment Is a mistake but he wiU support enforcement so lensf ai it is in effect. , The contest for the republican nomination for governor while a three-cornered one, has been a renewal of th ancient feud be tween Alex J. Groesbeck, three times governor, and the incum bent, Fred W. Green, who beat him four years ago and now is retiring at the end of hts second term. Groesbeck Is running for the office and Green has given his a port to Wllber M. Bmckler, at torney general of the state. The third candidate in this race la judge Edward J. Jeffries of De troit, a democrat until this year when, he declined the gubernator ial nomination of that party. The democratic candidates for i senator and governor have no op '' position in their own party. They ara, respectively, Thomas A. E. Weadock and William A.

Commenting on the company's application for a renewal of its broker's permit, McCallister said! "After an examination of your financial statement, it is the opin ion of this department that the company is not in sufficiently sound financial condition to war rant renewal of the permit." Bookkeeping Held not Clear In another letter, dealing with the suspension of the company's permit to sell coupin bonds, Mc Callister said: "On July 11 an auditor of this department conducted an examin ation ot your company. He has lied his report. On examining J this report I found your company has not adopted ,a satisfactory method of accounting for Install ment bond liability, that you have not employed a regular book keeper, and that your books are poorly kept. The amount of out standing bonds, as shown by your books, does not correspond with the amount of bonds registered by the trustee. "The Lawyers Title and Trust company, which is acting as your trustee, served notice upon you sometime ago that they desired to be released fromthelr trust and under date of September 4. 1 have a letter -from said Lawyers Title and Trust company insisting upon the immediate release of this trusteeship.' Taking into consid- erationthese conditions, I deem it expedient to suspend the permit until a satisfactory showing is made to this department."

YOUTH TURNS TO GLASSES Glasses help to pre serve a youthful ap pearance. They relieve that characteristic anx ious, tired, drawn look for which eyestrain is so often responsible. As a matter of fact, glasses, properly fitted acording to modern practices, actually im prove the appearance of those who have been suffering from eye strain. In addition, the correction of eye de fects and strain greatly benefit general health and immediately in crease working energy. Is it any wonder, then, that so many young people partic ularly younger women turn to classes to day? They have learn ed that there are glass es becoming to every face, and appropriate for every occasion. They realize that it is much easier to main tain their good looks with glasses than it is to recapture youthful appearance by other means after eyestrain has' left its disfiguring marks. Before eye-strain wrinkles become permanent and nerv ous fatigue becomes chrome, have your eyes examined. If you need glasses, you will be surprised to find what a comfort they are when accur ately and becomingly fitted to you. A careful selection of the right glasses is not the least important item that should be considered by peo ple who are always correct in their dress. Fashion now prescribes White Gold spec tacles or oxfords for street wear. White Gold rimless eyeglasses for evening. You will find that the new style has everything to recom mend it, in strength and dur ability as well as inconspicu ous good looks.
