The airmen, Robert Myers, Hartford Arkvvright, Ralph Seidner, James Tobln and John Bloom, were picked up uninjured by a rescue amphibian plane and brought here. Plans were made today to recover the disabled craft with a barge from the thick underbrush of the small island, some 50 miles west of Nassau. The flyers were participating in the Miami-to-TCassau pleasure cavalcade, which followed completion of the Ail-American Air races at Miami. Transit Firm Here Is Barred Temporarily From Laying Oil Line Circuit. Judge James E.

Chenot, of Wayne county, Monday signed a temporary order to prohibit the Transit Storage of Port Huron, from placing new oil pipelines through the Wayne county property of Fred Herr and John F. Herr, Nankin township. The company was ordered to show cause why a permanent injunction should not be issued. A hearing on the order will be held Friday in Detroit. Officials of the company here declined to comment on the case, in which the Herr brothers charge that the pipelines are ruining their property.

The brothers claim that their mother made a deal with the company to permit the placing of pipelines through their farm and that they knew nothing of the arrangement until some of the lines were broken recently. Acting on terms of the original agreement with the Herr's mother, the Transit Storage sought to replace the lines with new pipe and is now laying lines adjacent to the Herr farm. Cassin, Morehead, Discuss City Plans At G.O.P. Meeting Plans for city government were discussed Monday by Mayor John F. Cassin and Herbert E.

Morehead, public safety commissioner, at a meeting of Port Huron Republican Women's club in the council room of the city hall. Mayor Cassin urged citizens to take an interest in city affairs and to bring their ideas before him and the city commission. "The city officials seek to reflect the opinions of the citizens and they cannot carry out the wishes of the people unless they know what these wishes are," he said. "Demand for improvements must originate with the people and the demand will be carried out by the men they elect to manage city affairs." Mr. Morehead said he plans to increase the efficiency of police and fire departments.

His activities will be directed to this end and to make the departments serve not only efficiently but with a maximum of courtesy.

Because the Scandinavian countries have these assets they are 20 years ahead of the United States and 40 years ahead of England," E. W. Kiefer told members of the Men's Union at a dinner meeting Monday at 6:30 p.m. in the college auditorium. "England was made because she sat on a bed of coal, and she discovered the steam engine.

England was smelting steel with coal while the rest of the world was still making steel with charcoal. England became the leading nation of the world because she was making steel, woolen and cotton cloth with coal. But the Scandinavian countries found a cheaper power in their hydro-electric plants. Today the largest steel, wool and cotton mills are found in the Scandinavian countries. Today the finest mercantile marine in the world is owned by the Scandinavian countries.

Where a British ship is manned by 200 sailors, the Scandinavians can man the same ship with 75 sailors," Mr. Kiefer said. When asked what he thought would be the outcome of the Finnish-Russian conflict, Mr. Kiefer replied, "I would rather face 12 Russians armed with guns than one Finn armed with a knife." Colter Dodman, Ellsworth Dod-man, Charles Lauzon and Robert Miesmer, accompanied by Eloise Briscoe at the piano, sang "Wanted, a Wife" and "When Good Fellows Get Together." Arrangements for the dinner, which was attended by more than 65 members, were made by Arthur Roberts, Clifford Crampton and Marshall Metzger. Robert Miesmer, ciub president, introduced Mr.

PLEySSIED Congressman Doubts Need Of Fleet To Beat Coalition Washington, Jan. 9 AP Critics cf the administration's naval expansion program contended today that it represented a startling reversal of traditional policy because it contemplated a fleet able to cope with possible coalitions of foreign powers. "Our naval policy for a long time has been a navy second to none," said Representative Cole, Republican, New York, a member of the house naval committee.

"Now we are told we must have one better than all the rest of the sea powers combined." Adm. Harold R. Stark, chief of naval operations, told the commiti-tee Monday that the navy as now constituted "was not conceived to be adequate to defend ourselves against a coalition of powers." recently it has become evident that we must consider such a possibility," he said, adding that world conditions "presage a greater menace to our peace than was the case a year ago." Despite the viewpoints expressed by the navy's high command. Cole and other critics of the proposed 25 per cent increase in the navy's total tonnage said the- feared "we are becoming hysterical about the danger to this country." Chairman Vinson, Democrat, Georgia, said he intended to go into the questions raised by the establishment of the so-called "neutrality zone" extending 300 miles to sea from the coast of the western hemisphere. "I want to find out why it was necessary to put that line so far to sea," Vinson said, "and whether we can enforce it with the ships available." There was some conjecture as to whether the navy intended to revive its controversial proposal for 9Mt i 1 a base on the far-away Pacific island of Guam.

In his prepared statement. Stark told the committee that the history of the navy's last two expansion programs indicated, among other things, that "if congress should decide to provide an outlying lookout post at Guam, our defensive position in the Pacific would be greatly strengthened." Committee members said they thought any proposal to increase the naval facilities on the island only a few hundred miles from Tokyo would encounter just as much opposition as it did last year when it was stricken from a bill to give the navy a system of new naval air bases. Legion-Schubert Club Minstrel Show Plans Are Made Preliminary plans for the annual American Legion-Schubert club minstrel show, which 10 years ago started as a project of the Schubert and Exchange clubs, were made at a meeting of committees representing Charles A.

Particularly when it expresses the number of customers served by, the Webb Coal in a single day. Two thousand nine hundred and forty seven customers served in a single ten hour day means that nearly five customers were taken care of each minute. Every order was filled. Every customer received the benefit of Webb's usual prompt, careful delivery service.

This service required the mobilization of a fleet of 150 trucks to handle so great a volume. A Train Nearly a Mile Long The coal purchased by these customers represented over an entire trainload of coal cars, each fifty feet long. The total number of freight cars required to transport the coal tonnage sold by our yards on this day would stretch nearly a mile in length.

Many report Improvement in health. Others tell of increased bodily strength. magnetic personality, courage and poise. The man, well-known explorer and geographer, tells how he found these strange methods in far-off and mysterious Tibet, often called the land of miracles by the few travelers permitted to visit it. He discloses how he learned rare wisdom and long hidden practices, closely guarded for three thousand years by the sages, which enabled many to perform amazing feats.

He maintains that these immense powers are latent in all of us, and that methods for using them are now simplified so that they can be used by almost any person with ordinary intelligence. He maintains that man, instead of being limited by a one-man-power-mind, has within him the mind-power of a thousand men or more as well as the energy-power of the universe which can be used in his daily affairs. He states that this sleeping giant of mind-power, when awakened, can make man capable of surprising accomplishments, from the prolonging of youth, to success in many fields.
