PAGE FIVE LONGEST AIR TOUR I IENTAL SERVICE Passengers Will Start Sun day On 10,700-Mile Jaunt New Trade Era Is Seen As Result of Route By CHARLES E. HAHNLR. (Associated Press Staff Writer.) NEW YORK. Oct. 3. Tbe long est passenger air -tour ever attempted across territory under the American flag was being organized here today, It Is an air Odyssey which will be gin Sunday and go half-way around the world commercial aviation's conquest of the air from New York to the Philippine Islands. The tour is not an attempt to break records Its mission Is to report the progress of American aviation but the 10,700-mlle journey will be ac complished In six days of travel. The members of the tour will take part in the preliminary passenger flight of Pan-American Airways across the Pacific ocean, a survey of con ditions which will be experienced by ordinary travelers when the line is opened for the first regular passen ger flight to the Orient, October 31. The first part of the Journey 3,500 miles from New York to San Francisco will be covered in 18 hours over the United Air lines, The second part 8,210 miles from Alameda, Cal to Mallna will start October 7 and occupy five days. . It will be flown In one of the 26-ton "clipper ships" with which Pan- American Is about to begin the op eratlon of passenger service from continental United States to the far east. The flight, to be accomplished en tirely by commercial transport planes flying in regular routes, opens an era In which American, salesmen can reach their far eastern markets In the time It formerly took them to oross the continent. It helps knit Asia and America Into a definite trade entity. Military experts see the develop ment as an aid to the defense of American territories In the Pacific and to the defense of the coast Itself.

() Wild ducks that don't give a darn what they drink are committing sui cide by thousands on the Utah, Ari zona. Nevada and California desert "Each year." Newell B. Cook. Utah game commissioner, said today, "many more ducks die from tainted water than axe shot. 'In a Dad year more ducks are poisoned than hunters In the area would kill In half a century." Southward bound, tlw ducks dip Into pools, soon become groggy . Their necks go limp, their legs be come paralyzed and they exhibit all the signs of extreme Intoxication but it's worse than that. It's "duck sickness" desert dysentery. Until you've seen them, lying dead on the Utah salt flats, a feathered body every few feet for mile after mile, you can't realize the serious ness of the situation, said Cook. "I have pictures of sections within 10-mile area which must have con talned over half a million dead ducks." The illness Is caused by stale water. The birds die in great numbers only when a rainstorm has left tiny pools over the desert or, as in a recent in stance, when wind blows lake water Into shallow ponds along shorelines. Cook said some efforts are made to rescue birds--they recover quickly In fresh water. More affective than "hospital measures," however, has been the stationing of men with shot- guna at the principal danger areas to frighten away the tired or thirsty fowl. "But our funds are limited," he said. "This is a problem .of great importance to sportamen everywhere We look for greater federal aid In its solution." GUN SIGHTS to fit all guns. Sims Bros, 23 N.

Oct. 2. R) Although Norman Thomas, candidate for the presidency tm the Socialist party ticket, made no request lor the use of a building on the Oregon state campus for a political address. Presi dent Ocorge W. Peavy said yesieroay such an application would have been turned down.

Prank Knox, Republican candidate for vice president, was rejected. Peavy said. Col. Knox recently spoke here at Bell field, owned by the Associated Stu dents.
