filers, via tlio crown of tho
globe, took off from the
Cleveland alifiort at 4:44 p.m.,
eastern standard time, today
on tlie lust lap of their record-breaking
dash.
' They resumed their Journey
after a brief pause at the
Cleveland airport for a rapid
refueling of their plane.
CLEVELAND, July 1. UP)
Back In the United States for
the home stretch of their record
breaking dash around the globe,
Wiley Post and Harold Gatty
brought their monoplane, Winnie
Mae, down at the Cleveland air
port for a refueling stop at 4:15
p.m., eastern standard time, to
day. Their safe arrival here left them
Just BOO miles to go before they
gain Roosevelt field, New York,
and the honor of having been
the speediest persons to navigate
the world. They left Roosevelt
field nine days ago on their 10,000
mile race against time.
Today's hop brought them from
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, 1800
miles away, where they took the
air at 6:39 a.m., eastern standard
time. They had. maintained a
speed of about 150 miles an hour.
EDMONTON, Alta., July l.(P)
Using a paved street for a run
way, Wiley Post and Harold Gutty
hopped off from here this morning
for Cleveland, Ohio, beyond which
lay tho home stretch of their IB,-000-mile
flight around the world.
They hoped to reach Roosevelt
Field, New York, by 11 o'clock to
night (IS. S. T.), thereby complet
ing their flight in nine days.
The monoplane Winnie Mae took
the air at 3:30 a. m. (Mountain
standard time 5:39 E. S. T.), and
headed southeast for the 1600-mile
flight to Cleveland, which the fliers
hoped to accomplish in 11 or 12
hours.
Field Impossible
Rain, which had fallen here for
the past 24 hours, ceased Just be
fore the takeoff, but it had left
Bluchford field, where the plane
landed yesterday, a quagmire from
which a takeoff with the plane's
heavy load of fuel would have been
well nigh impossible.
Post ran the plane along the
street for a quarter of a mile be
fore it lilted into the air in the
face of a northwest breeze. After
swlngtng in a wide circle the plane
headed southeast and straightened
out on Its course.
Neither the pilot nor Gatty, the
navigator, would say before they
took off just what, course they
would follow, but said they would
bear well to the south to get away
from the storm area in the vicinly
of Edmonton.
Refreshed By Rest
There was little delay In the
takeoff. The fliers, refreshed by
several hours' sleep, arrived at the
field shortly before 3 a. m. Me
chanics were warming up the plane
when they arrived at the hangar.
After obtaining the Canadlun
weather reports they climbed Into
the plane and took off.
Post delayed hiB start until po
lice had cleared the street of spec
tators,, of whom hundreds were on
hand despite the early hour.
The fliers expressed their grati
tude tor their reception here, say
ing they had enjoyed the best
night's rest they had since they
left Roosevelt field June 23.
"But we'll be mighty glad to get
back home after this grind," Post
said.
They arrived here at 4:35 p. m.
(Mountain Standard time) yester
day from Fairbanks, Alaska.
Ace a Spectator
Among those who saw the globe
circlers off was White May, one
of Canada's foremost aviators, the
world war flier who engaged Baron
Richtohofen, German ace, In the
last battle before Kichthoren was
killed. '
The fliers set their plane down
in a tieat three-point landing on
the soggy turf of Hlatchford field
here yesterday at the end of a ten
hour flight from Fairbanks, Alaska.
A-crowd of 1500 that had braved
the all-day rain broke through po
lice lines and splashed across the
mud to surround the Winnie Mae.
Despite their fatigue, Post and
Oatty declined an automobile to
take them across the field and re
mained out In the rain to superin
tend the towing of their plane to a
hangar by a tractor.

PORTIAND, Ore., July 1. (JP)
At a meeting to be held here next
Tuesday producers and distrlbu

will attempt to reach nn agree
ment on a contract under which
milk will be handled.
For seven hours representatives
of producers and distributors met
In executive session here yesterday
with Max Oehlhard, director of the
state depawtment of agriculture.
At tho close of the meeting
Oeulhnr admitted the situation "is

some talk of a milk strike, with
members of the Dairy Co-opera-live
association threatening to
withdraw 4heir product from the
market.

Ciehlhar said tho question of
price to be paid the producer was
not discussed. No increase In price

The proposed contract would be
entered Into by Individual distribu

cludes 9fi0 of the 1300 producers
in tho Portland milk shed. The
association would guarantee a per
manent supply of milk nnd would
permit the distributors to buy

RFNO, Nov., July !.(?) Reno
fell before the startliugly sudden
attack of an urmy of federal pro

early today.
Striking unexpectedly In widely
separated parts of the city und in
the neighboring town of Sparks,
forty agents under Col. Ueorge
Seavei of San Francisco raided at
least twenty-one bootleg establish
ments and arrested upwards of
forty persons.
All prisoners after being booked
at tho police station appeared be

and made bond, which In each
caso totaled $2000.
CIono Night HniiiitH
Most of the fashionable night
resorts and road houses were
taken over by the agents, many of
whom had participated six weeks
ago in the raids on the desert city
of Las Vegas In southern Nevada.
The Willows, most exclusive of all,
escaped, however, the raiders re
porting they were unable to find
evidence of liquor sales there.
All of the resorts were more than
usually thronged with pleasure
seekers, the opening of the horse
races today and the Baor-Uzcudun
fight on July 4 having attracted
an unprecedented number of visi
tors. Col. Beaver, who personally di
rected the raids, said that many
of his men had been In Reno for
several days gathering evidence
and that tho raids were all part
of a general campaign to dry up

The raiders struck nt 1 1 o'clock
last night, working In small squads
and entering known,, speakeasies
simultaneously along a several
mile front. Plans for the attack
had been mapped out by Col.
Heaver from reports made to him
by agents who In the past few day
had allegedly been successful In
making liquor purchases In all of
the places raided.
Several road houses, Including
tho Silver Slipper and Luwton's
were caught In the net spread by
the agents. The Rex club In Doug
