"I haye been making an investigation, among property owners and real estate people and I find that a majority considers the city method, based On engineer's' record of sales and maps of properties, Is much more satisfactory than the Ifcunty method," Mayor Loveland said. "I personally have paid taxes In seven or eight municipalities which are assessed by the county. I have done so for clients and for estates and trusts. Outside of my connection with the city government. I agree with the majority of those whjm I have consulted that the city method is much more just and equitable than the county method.

Of course, there are errors bound to slip in under any system." Wants Question Submitted Councilman Northrup, youngest of the Council members and head of the Street Department, also would not give a definite answer to the Councilman Evans said Solicitor Howard Kennedy was suffering from the grip and Evans did not know when he could confer with Kennedy and have an answer ready as to whether Evans would vote to have the city accept county assessment figures. Suggestion Has Merit Councilman Thomas Toole, lone Democrat on Council, indicated that he might favor such a transfer but added a reservation that he "would look into the proposal" before committing himself. "The suggestion has some merit, warranting careful study and investigation," Toole said. "I'd like to avoid duplication, confusion and expense, but I want to determine first that if the provision of the Act of 1931 were accepted by Council, Wilkes-Barre property owners would get a fair and just assessment." Toole was asked to be more specific as to what he intended to ascertain. "There is no assurance to date that the county's method of making assessments offers any better guarantee to us in Wilkes-Barre than the city system now being attacked," he said.

"For instance, it has been generally rumored for years that the county assessors' helpers get their figures on Wilkes-Barre valuations by copying from the city assessors' books. I'd like to be assured that under this new plan, those making the assessments in this city would have the qualifications to make a fair and just assessment and will actually work at their jobs." Oranges in Money Sack Dallas, Feb. 2 VP) Two men jabbed pistols against Meyer Kantrow in the hallway of an apartment house as he returned home from his store today, grabbed a money sack he carried, and fled.

3 Scientists Who Penetrated to Stratosphere Secrets Awarded get some details from lawyers, engineers and real estate owners and experts before I'd give you a flat answer," Northrup told a reporter. He suggested that the question be submitted to all Council members at one time, preferably at a meeting when the members had time to discuss it In round-table faehlon, "For Instance, after a hurried reading of this law, I certainly think It my duty as a Councilman to find out whether the city could go back to its own system of assessing if we find out that our property owncis are not getting proper treatment from the county asseesore," Northrup said. He read the text of the Act, found on page 1383 of the Laws of 1931, for the second time and said: "I can't see-anything there that would clear my mind on that. It looks like a one-way proposition. We hand over the job and our rights to the county assessors-, but what does the law offer ue In the way of protecting property owners In the future if sometime it is discovered the county assessors are not doing their job properly? I'd like to save the expense of the assessors' office for the city, but I can easily see where we might be doing something that would prove to be false economy and I won't eay 'yes' to you until I find out what's what." Councilman Tom A.

Evans, superintendent of accounts and finance and in direct charge of the assessment department, declined to say whether or not he would vote for such an ordinance "until after I study the law and confer with Solicitor Howard E. Kennedy." "There are some problems I'd have to see settled," Evans said. "For one thing, I'd like to know whether City Council would be exempted from the present duty of preparing the tax duplicate for the Wilkes-Barre School District. I'd want to know if the County would take over this matter along with the assessment. The law puts on us the duty of preparing the duplicate books, giving names, addresses and valuations, and the city has to pay for it, although it is for the school district.

It costs us about $1,200 a year, which is one of the items that make up the total of $13,064.90 the assessment department cost the city last year, and not $18,000 or $20,000 a year as newspaper articles insist upon printing." The question was put to four of the five Council members who are in the citv. The fifth, Councilman William B. Houser, is in Florida. Two Counciimen, Thomas Toole and J. Bowden Northrup, although refusing to give a definite answer, indicated a willingness to consider the proposal as having merit.

Each wanted more time to 6tudy the possibilities. Toole referred to "rumors that the county assessors get their figures by copying city assessment books" and said he wanted assurance that county would do a good job of making assessments' if the city passed the task on to the county's assessors and clerks. Northrup raised the point that he wanted to study the law to see If it provides the chance for the city to return to Its own assessing system if it ehould be found that the transfer to the county was not to the city's interests. Councilman Tom A. Evans, head of the finance department of the city and directly in charge, also wanted a chance to study the possibilities and declined an answer until he could talk with City Solicitor Howard Kennedy, who was ill.

Finds City Methods Better Mayor Charles N. Loveland, also declining to give a "yes" or "no" answer, made a statement which in- dicates a conviction that the city's method of making assessments is Special memorlam" service! were held last night at 7 la St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church, Seneca Street, city, honoring the late V.

TO BE IN WAR IN YEAR Van Zandt Sees American Soldiers With British Johnstown, Feb. 2 UP) Representative James E. Van Zandt, Al-toona Republican, predicts that within a year American soldiers will be fighting slde-by-side with the British and their allies. Discussing the Roosevelt administration's "Ald-to-Britain" bill now before Congress, Van Zandt told the Johnstown chapter, Veterans of Foreign Wars, at a dinner last night: "Regardless of any of our defense efforts, our American boys will be fighting slde-by-side with English, Australian and French troops In Northern Africa within the next year." Van Zandt, who served in the Navy during the World War and who was three times national commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and twice State commander of that organization, added: "Air power will never settle this war. Manpower will be the instrumental factor in determining the outcome of the greatest conflict that has ever confronted the world.

It will be necessary for U. troops to enter Germany through the present sup posedly neutral Balkan states to bring about a peace." Mt. Popocatepetl is 17,888 feet high and Diego de Ordaz is thought to be the first European to ascend it in 1522. or more 1 4. VL by Telephone).

Private Whitney had many companions, however, in the high altitude research work. One Northwest Airlines pilot was "taken up" to 35,000 feet, told to take off his oxygen mask and make motions as though he was- opening the cockpit window overhead to jump and to tell what happened. He couldn't. He "passed out" for lack of oxygen in the 30 seconds it would have required him to abandon ship, jump and pull the rip cord of his parachute. As a result the three trophy award winners designed a pocket oxygen flask -to supply a flier with the death-preventing gas during the earthward plunge.

They also designed the "BLB" mask, a strange looking device which fits over the mouth and nose to supply oxygen at normal rate. It can be disconnected almost in-staneously and hooked up to the pocket flask and it contains a microphone wich enables the yilot to keep in continuous radio contact with other members of the squadron and ground stations. Recently it his been found that too much oxygen inhaled quickly may be as dangerous as too little. Dr. Boothby and Dr.

Lovelace found that they could withstand lack of oxygen by breathing oxygen while taking slight exercise. Their tissues filled up with oxygen and the bubbles of hydrogen which cause the "bends" or death in either high altitude flight' or deep-sea diving failed to form. Independently two other scientists, Dr. Carl F. Schmidt and Dr.

E. McGuire, post provost marshal, said today two 44th Di vision soldiers captured while flee- lnjr from the fort guard house were in solitary confinement awaiting action by the commanding general. The public relations off'ce identi- lied the men as private James Burne of Medford, N. a member of Company 114th Infantry; and Private Alfred Brown of Rockland N. a member of Company 119th Medical Regiment.

Captain Barton G. Beck of At lantic City, a member of Battery 157th Field Artillery, and officer of the day yesterday, said Burns and Brown had slugged a sentry, stolen his .45 calibre stol, and escaped while under guard on art errand. He said the sentry, Private Her bert Dishner of Atlantic City, also or the lavui, was not seriously injured. State troopers arrested the pair near Wrightstown about an hour '( after a State Police teletype message was sent from Trenton. Major McGut-re said Burns was serving a u-day sentence on con viction of being absent without leave and breaking arrest, and that Brown was awaiting summary court martial for violation of a dis ciplinary article of war.

Former Insurrectionist Urges Loyalty to U. S. Manila, Feb. 3 (Monday) General Emilio Aguinaldo, leader of the Philippine insurrection against the United States, told members of the Filipino Veterans Association at their annual meeting Sunday to stand by America in the critical days ahead. "Personally, I shudder whenever I think of the dangers that may disrupt American and Japanese relations and precipitate those countries into war," he said.

"Of course there is no reason why we should reel panicky, for as you ail know our defense is in the good hands of the United States." Aguinaldo said war between United States and Japan would result in an American victory because Japan had been greatly weakened by her struggle with China. He urged Filipinos to remain steadfast for the ideal of immediate Independence. The Association reelected him as president. Princeton Repeals Rule Banning Liquor in Room Princeton, N. Feb.

2 Dean Christian Gauss announced today repeal of the nearly two-century-old Princeton University rule forbidding undergraduates to keep liquor in their rooms. Since 1747 "The keeping or using of alcoholic liquors in any student's room" has been punishable by suspension or expulsion from the University. Gauss said the University Board Of Trustees voted to rescind the rule and to substitute a regulation making "intoxication or disorder and bad manners arising from the use of liquor" subject to the same penalties. The change followed a year-long Campaign waged against the old rule by the Daily Princetonian, undergraduate newspaper, and the Undergraduate Council.

2 Pope Plus XII received scores of small candles reduced in size by wartime shortage of beeswax 4n a colorful candlemas ceremony today. Tha candles were those which devout Catholics are accustomed to kep In their homes, The Pope, accompanied by nobles of his court, entered the con sltrtory hail and sat upon the throne. The gifts were then "brought to him by representatives of Rome's basilicas, college religious orders In a long proces sion. The delegates knelt on the steps of the throne, handed the candles to him, kissed his fisherman's ring and then moved on. Usually the Pope receives about 200 candles of large size richly painted, tied In red and white sdlk with gold fringe in all weighing several hundred pounds.

He sends the more artistic ones to cardinals, sovereigns, princes and patriarchs whom he wishes especially to honor. This year, however, owing to the difficulty of obtaining beeswax, Pope Plus made known he would accept "with equal pleasure small candles with or without ornamentation such as ate uSed In the liturgy, Instead of the customary blir candles." Only one of the candles received today, this from religious groups at Turin which had not been informed of the Pope's wishes, was large and decorated. It bore a historical figure In previous years. RULERS OF CHANNEL ISLAND ARE SAFE English Isle of Sark Is Occupied by Germans London, Feb. 2 A five-word message received in London today by Richard Beaumont announced that his mother, Mrs.

Sibyl Col-lings Beaumont Hathaway, Dame of Sark, and his stepfather, Robert Hathaway, were safe. It was the first news of the Dame of Sark since the islands were occupied toy the Germans. "Both well. Sybil and Bob," the message said. Sark is one of the small Islands in the English Channel.

The message was sent by the way of Berlin and New York. Mrs. Hathaway, whose ancestors have ruled the island since 1852 under a charter granted by Queen Elizabeth in 1565. visited this United States in December, 1938. Her husband Is a native of East Orange, N.

was educated at Yale and ruled with his wife as Seigneur of Sark. The island liee 22 miles of the coast of France. Sixtenth Century laws were still observed on the island before the Germans came. There are (or were) no taxes, movies, billboards, automobiles, paved roads or local newspapers. And it was reported there never had been a murder or a divorce there.

Osa Johnson, Widow Of Explorer, Will Wed New York. Feb. 2 UP) Mrs. Osa Johnson, widow of Martin Johnson, the explorer and producer of wild animal films, will be married to Clark H. Getts, her business manager, at City Hall tomorrow by Mayor F.

H. LaGuardia. As well known as her late husband for her love of exploration and adventure, Mrs. Johnson is the author of "I Married Adventure" which chronicles the story of her life with the explorer. Johnson died of injuries suffered in the crash of an airliner north of Los Angeles Jan.

12, 1937. Mrs. Johnson was injured In the crash, too, but as soon as she recovered, she continued a lecture tour. Getts accompanied her to Africa as manager of her "Stanley and Livingstone" film expedition in 1937 and assisted in the production of her current motion picture based on her book. The couple will forego an immediate honeymoon to per mit her to complete a sequel to the book.

Following the ceremony at 11 a. m. (E. S. at City Hall, a wedding breakfast will be held at the Waldorf-Astoria.

As an example Collier's Magazine, in the announcement of the report, mentions the case of a weather pilot, one of the men who used to make daily flight to 20,000 feet and above to record the weather conditions as an aid to forecasting. This pilot "felt funny." His hands didn't do what he told them. His feet kicked the right rudder when it should have been left. He shoved the plane into a dive when he meant to climb. After three tries he landed, cursing himself, and hit almost nose-on because he couldn't measure distance or altitude.

He had been suffering from oxygen ljck and didn't know it. Probably many fatal airplane accidents should pro down on the books of the Civil Aeronautics Authority as "anoxemia" lack of oxygen instead of "pilot error" but the true cause in each case will never be known. The Collier Trophy, for President Roosevelt's presentation to the three aviation medical men as representatives of a new fraternity In medical research, reads "To the air lines of the United States for their outstanding record for safety in air travel during 1939, with especial recognition of Drs. Walter M. Boothby and W.

Arm strong of the United States Army Medical Corps for contribution to this safety record by their work in the field of aviation medicine generally and pilot fatigue in par ticular. However, the three physicians give most or the credit lor the award to the pilots of Northwest Airlines, who acted as guinea pigs in extensive tests In the Mayo Clinic's low pressure chamber; to D. W. Domilnson, research pilot of Transcontinental and Western Air; several hundred Rochester High School boys who did "fatigue" teats on the Mavo Clinic treadmill; to the men of the Army Air Corps who made standardization of pressure reactions possible, and particularly to a young self-effacing private named Raymond Whitney, the Material Division at Wflght Field, Dayton, Ohio.

Whitney volunteered for the duty of "determining the limits of human tolerance in flght" and week after week went into tne low pressure chambers where the pressure was dropped to the equivalent of 30,000 feet or more of altitude, went up rates of two miles a minute and dropped at the equivalent of power dives of ix miles a minute.

Physicians, Fliers and Soldiers Make Flying Safer at 7 Miles (Editor's Note: How would you like to be taken up thirty-five thousand feet, then dropped out of the airplane "just to see what happened?" Perhaps, not. But this is just one of the many experiments a group of men dared in helping solve the mysteries and dangers of the stratosphere. As a result, flying in that sphere is much safer today. Here is the thrilling story behind the Collier's Trophy award today.) By STEPHEN J. MCDONOUGH Associated Presa Science Writer Washington, OP) One of the nation's outstanding awards for achievement in aviation went In November to three physicians who Eioneered in studying why a pilot's lood boils when he ascends to a height of seven miles above the earth.

Dr. Walter Boothby and Dr. W. Randolph Lovelace II of the Mayo Clintic. Rochester, and Capt ain Harry Armstrong of the Army Medical Corps were awarded the Collier Trophy, presented annually since 1911, for their medical re search work on what happens to a person's brain, nerves, blood and reflexes when he ascends into the stratosphere.

They have found that a flyer loses consciousness almost instantly If he fails to keep breathing oxygen when he goes above 20,000 feet, that many accidents are caused by anoxemia oxygen want that a pilot cannot coordinate his muscles without sufficient oxygen to feed them. That has been a moot question since the first balloonists left the ground 100 years before the Wright Brothers also winners of the Collier Trophy created the first successful flying machine. Early Fears Justified In the early days of flight medical men predicted that a man would blow up and burst like a balloon in rarefied air. In a sense they were right, the newest Collier Trophy discovered. But they sought to find out exactly what the effects of low pressure on the human body were, why they occurred, and how they could be prevented.

They would scoff at being called courageous, because to them, it is just part of the day work. Yet Captain Armstrong has taken off his oxygen mask at 35,000 feet on numerous occasionsC'juat to see what would and promptly was "blacked out" until he dropped to 20,000 feet. Dr. Boothby and Dr. Lovelace, with the same inquifiitiveness, have done the same thing repeatedly in the flir and in the low-pressure chambers of the Mayo Clinic and the Army Air Corps at the Wright Field material division in Dayton, Ohio.

They have proved that actually a man's blood does boil when he tftts into the rarefied atmosphere five miles or more aloft, that a pilot be-comes extremely fearful when he St PETERSBURG ON GlORlOUS llorgest fireproof hotel on Florida's rooms, each with bath.
