The airship this year averaged
66 miles per hour and at one
point during the flight reached a
maximum speed of 100 miles per

their good time to ideal contact

July 5.
Peter, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred
erick A. Gorman of Evanston, 111.,
vanished on a hiking trip with fel
low scouts at a camp 12 miles
north of Muskegon.
A plane and ground search1 of
the area immediately after Peter
was reported missing failed to turn
up any clue to his whereabouts.
The boy s lather at first ex
pressed belief his son had been
kidnaped. He now has joined po
lice in belief that Peter is dead.

Two Slickers
Steal Money
Two Salem restaurants were
short-changed right out of their
cash registers Friday, city police
reported. A pair of slick opera
tors who apparently know the
workings of the tills is believed
responsible.
Taken was $120 from The Spa,
382 Slate street, and $35 from
Clark's restaurant, 479 Court
street, police said. In each case
one of the pair partially screened
the cash register Irom employes'
view while the other opened it to
get the money. ,
Method of getting, the money
without attracting - notice was
opening an "emergency" door on
the customer side of the cash reg
ister behind which some of the
register's mechanism can be
reached, including a lever which
will release the cash drawer with
out ringing the bell.
Apparently one man would use
his newspaper to block the view
of anyone from the back of the
machine while his partner opened
the door and flicked the lever,
police said. Then the partner
would reach around and lift the
hills from the drawer and the two
would leave.

San Marino
Votes Sunday
SAN MARINO Wl The Cind
erella republic of San Marino
Saturday sipped champaigne, ate
sweet cakes and cheerfully await
ed the outcome of Sunday's elec
tion.
After midnight tolls Sunday, San
Marino either will be a pro-West
ern democracy for the first '.ime ;
since 1945, or will remain the only
Communist-run state in Western
Europe.
If democracy wins, much cred
it can be claimed by 97 democratic
minutemen, all San Marino citi
zens now residing in Detroit, San
dusky, Ohio, and New York City.
They hurried back to their tiny
mountain homeland to tell fellow
countrymen the story of American
freedom and prosperity under de
mocracy. This may turn the tide.
The election has assumed far!
more than local significance. It is 1
regarded as a test of whether com
munism is maintaining or losing
strength in the Italian peninsula,
where one-third of the voters are
communists or sympathizers.
A light year is about six mil
lion million miles.

US to Export
Atomic Fuel
GENEVA W-The United States
was reported today to have de
cided to export to certain coun
tries atomic fuel of a grade suffi
cient to operate atomic power
stations.
This information came from
highly qualified source who said'ored a $1,000 reward for arrest
Belgium probably would be the and conviction of the assailants,
first nation to get such fuel. .
Up to now the United States has
not shipped any atomic fuel abroad
but it had agreed to supply 27 coun-
tries with enough 20 per cent en
riched uranium to operate one re
search reactor. '
Leading atomic scientists in
cluding Dr. H. J. Bhabha of India,
president of the current atomic
conferencesay atomic fuel rich
enough to operate a power station
is also of possible weapon grade.
The 20 per cent enriched fuel,
however, is considered usable only
for research and creation of radio
isotopes.
