Cal, (AP) If an avi ator could Jump astride light raj on the eun end ride It out through epace. It would take him SOO.000,000 jears to reach the moet distant ob ject ever aeen by men. Such an Imaginary flight through apace la described by Dr. Walter S. Adama. director of the Mount Wllaon obaervatory of the Carnegie Inatltu tlon of Washington, near here, to give an Idea of the present knowledge of the !ze of known apace. Mounted on hla light ray, the apace-fller would travel at a speed of 18.000 mllea a aecond, or floO, 600,000 mllee an hour. Strange things would happen to him, however, while traveling at this terrlflo pace. "At such a speed," saya Dr. Adams, "the relativity theory telU ua that his mau (or weight) would become In llnlte and hla thickness lero, however unconscious of either condition M might himself remain." ' To Earth In Eight Minutes Taking off from the sun. the apace pilot would cover the 83,000,000 miles to the earth In about eight minutes. Next landmark on the way would be the planet Neptune, which he would reach In about four hours. Then he would plunge Into a huge Told that would take his light ray four years to cross. At the far side he would psaa the dwarf atar Alpha Centaurl, about aa bright aa our aun. After nine yeara the filer on his light ray would reach Slrlua, flrat of the giant stara, and would fly 40 years before reaching Arcturus. It would take him 800 or 600 years to reach the hot, bright etare that form the constellation of the Pleiades and the Belt of Orion. But after all this time the space flier would be barely started on his Journey. If he steered a course In the di rection of the Milky Way, It would take him 100,000 years to reach tha utor limits of our part of the uni verse or galary of atara of which the un la a member. 700,000 Tears Out Leaving our t nlverae behind, the space pilot's ni.it important stop ould be the Magellanic Clouds, composed of hundreds of thousands ef stars. Beyond them, after 700,000 yeara of flying, he would reach a Imllar cloud which bears tha catalog name of N. O. O. 01133. Prom there he would pass out Into the real depths of space, the domain of tha great nebulae, each one of which la a "universe" In Itself. The first nebula to be reached would be Measler SS and the Andro meda Nebula, after about 770,000 and 00.000 yeara respectively. After SOO.000,000 yeara he would pass the moat distant nebulae ever seen, or rather photographed, and disappear Into regions no existing telescope has penetrated. SOLD WEDNESDAY Starting tomorrow the sheriff's of fice will Issue temporary permits for two weeks. Reports that Oovernor Meier would (rant a moratorium on auto licenses thla year are groundless, according to advices received here. The gover nor la expected to lasue a statement within the week upholding this view. Instructions t111 soon be Issued that new licensee must be shown on all autoa after July lat. State officials hold that If an auto let Is too poor to buy an auto license, he la too poor to buy gasoline. Fur thermore the economy program of the governor la baaed largely on the anticipated receipt of auto license fees, and any moratorium would de range the plana.

Labor Premier's Govern ment Defaults Interest On Bonds Court Refutes Claim New Law Invalid SYDNEY (AP) Perhaps the grav est crisis since federation on Janu ary 1, 1901, faces the Australian com monwealth. Upon the way It Is met and upon consequences of strong measures which are being Invoked, may even depend the life of the union. In two states, Tasmania and South Australia, secession Is being preached openly. In New South Wales armed guards have been placed about state funds to prevent their selaurt by the fed eral authorities. Bonds Start Trouble The crisis developed from the pro tests against the policies of J. T. Lang, labor party premier of New South Wales. His government last year defaulted Interest on bonds held In Australia and on February 1, this year, defaulted interest on bonds held overseas, many of them In the Unit' ed States. The commonwealth government made good the default In the first case but this year has merely guar anteed collection, passing the "finan cial agreement enforcement act.1 which empowers the federal author! ties to attach state funds and state tax revenue to meet defaulted serv ices on state obligations. Premier Lang answered this act by promptly removing state funds from the banks to the strong vaults of the state capltol. He set state troops to watch them. The Australian high court dlsal lowed his appeal that the new law was Invalid and upheld the first Judgment of 924,000 pounds (about $4,600,000 gold) made under bis terms. Federal Police Helpless The federal government then pro claimed attachment of the state's In come tax revenue to get money for bondholders, but Premier Lang coun tered by ordering his tax collectors to withhold Information from the federal authorities. It Is speculative how far Lang will go with his defiance of the Canberra government, headed by the new a- tlonal" premier, Joseph A. Lyons. If Lang does not alter his hitherto un compromising stand, he may prove the reef upon which the federation will break up. Resentment grows In other states at having to threaten their own bud gets with withdrawals to make good the lapses of New South Wales. The Australian commonwealth has six states New South, Wales, Victor- la, South Australia, West Australia, Tasmania and Queensland. There are two territories. North Australia and Central Australia and a federal dis trict at Canberra. Earl W. Scott, resident of south em Oregon for the past 40 years, passed away at the home of his brother, Ernest Scott, in Central Point, at an early hour this morning, after an Illness covering the past six months. Earl was born In Clay county, Iowa, March 31, 1876. He came to southern Oregon with his parents in 1893, living here con tlnuously since that time. He will be remembered by his many friends as the sexton of the Central Point cemetery for the past two years. He was a man of sterling qualities, good neighbor and always willing to lend a hand to anyone. There are many friends to mourn his passing. Mr. Scott leaves one son, R' chard O. Scott of Rogue River, Oregon; three brothers, Ernest Scott of Cen tral Point, Truman Scott of Horn brook, Calif., John Scott of Perry, Oklahoma; four sisters, Mrs. Carrie Hamrtck of Central Point, Mrs. Jane Duncan of Cottage Grove, Ore., Mrs. Adella Day of Bremerton, Wash., Mrs. Etta Thompson of Los Angeles. He had been a member of Central Point lodge No. 193, I. O. O. P, for 30 years. Funeral service will be conducted from the Perl Funeral home, June 18 at 3:00 p.m., Rev. D. E. Millard officiating.
