PASADENA. 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.

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

vices at the grave In the Central
