SAFETY OF FLYING SHOWN IN RECORDS Despite Crashes Transportation Is Remarkably Free Fro mAccidents. MISHAPS 'PLAYED UP' Bert Acosta Going: After Lecointe's Speed Mark on Straightaway Day. TIMED BY ELECTRICITY Observer Criticizes Taunting of Cautious Drivers of Airplanes. Despite the occasional airplane crashes, aerial transportation is now remarkably safe, as figures from many different sources here and abroad attest. The reason for the general belief that flying is dangerous, according to the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce, and according to aeronautical engineers who have made a study of the situation, is that aviation accidents, because of the newness of flying, of more news value than automobile and railroad accidents.

For example, one engineer pointed out yesterday. five persons were killed in Georgia Thursday when a train struck an automobile, but that fact is by no means made so conspicuous as would be the fact that five met death in an airplane. Among the rccords of safe flying cited are these: The United States Air Mail planes have carried mail on the transcontinental route 1.250,000 miles since May, 1921, without the loss of a life. This distance is equal to 240 trips from New York to San Francisco and deturn. On the daily passenger, express and mail services by airplane between London and Paris, London and Brussels and London and Amsterdam 3,444 trips were made during the year ended 21, 1922, and 16,422 passengers carried without injury to a passenger.

The distance covered by these flights was about S30.000 miles. The recent collision in France, resulting in several deaths, marred the record. On the lines operated by a Dutch company between Amsterdam and London and between Rotterdam and Hamburg, Fokker five passenger cabin planes covered over 350.000 miles in seven months without injury to passengers or damage to freight. The Aeromarine Airways, operating flying boats around New York in the summer and in Florida during the winter, have had planes fly over 150,000 miles, carrying over 10,000 passengers without a serious mishap. Try To-day for Speed Record.

This country will make a determined bid for the world's top speed record over a straight course, now held In France by Sadi Lecointe. this afternoon when Bert Asocta cuts loose a Curtiss Wildcat, a tiny triplane with a Curtiss twelve cylinder 435 horse-power motor, at the spring meet at Curtiss Field, Garden City. Lecointe established his record by traveling over a measured kilometer at a speed of 203 miles an hour. He used a Nieuport Delage with 300 horse power motor. To beat this Bert Acosta must send" the shrieking through" the air at more than 298 feet a second.

Acosta is noted for his skill In fast planes, but the mark Lecointe set in a most difficult one to approach. Acosta. if the motor is tuned up to perfection, will make four trials, two in each direction, over a course in front of the crowd. His speed will be electrically timed, for electricity is the only Thing fast enough to get two hundred mile speeds accurately. "Malllon" a Swift Graft.

The faster lighter than air craft in the United States is claimed by officers of Field, to be their "Mullion," a small English airship purchased by this country shortly after the armistice, but not used until recently. The two 75 horse power Rolls Royce Hawk motors punch the ship, 165 feet long, through the air at a little more than sixty miles an hour, although, theoretically, top speed is 57.5 miles. The envelope has a capacity of 100,000 ruble feet and is 35 feet In diameter. Two men can control the little aircraft and four or five passengers can be carried. of this type made flights of considerable duration during the war in the British naval service.

They were used for locating and bombing submarines. hy Take Foolhardy Chances An Air Service pilot, who has been doing some thinking on the matter of stunt flying at low altitudes and similar tricks, writes to the editor of the Air Service News Letters as follows: "The casual observer finds those who have no opportunity to keep their hand in. as well as those currently expert, cutting vertical banks at fifty feet altitude. or 'slipping her In" on one wing, or channelling off to the verge of a stall, or taxiing Into another ship, or turning back Into tne field In an emergency In- stead of landing straight ahead. "Why don't we land straight ahead when she goes dead without altitude, and why do we perpetually run so Vlose to the Why? Because, though not always.

In enough casen to cost the Government thousands of dollars In personnel and equipment losses, and to make hundreds of widows and orphans of our loved ones, we simply dislike to the butt of such remarks when we finally land (If we're still conscious) as 1 'Thought we'd have to get the star hooks out for you that or 'We had the Mtcult gun all or 'What's the matter with that bird? Why. he had enough room for landing to build a city or 'Yes, you did, but what was that, an altitude "Why can't we be content to leave the plain foolhardy stuff to the sense1' ss few who never will learn until It is too late and for whom there ought to be no room in the service?" frecord Flight In Record lime was made between Ellington and Kelly fields, In Texas, recently by Lieut. R. T. Aldworth.

In a Thoinas Morse Lieut. Aldworth made the 210 miles In one hour and twenty-three minutes, nt the rate of approximately 152 miles an hour. The return trip, against the wind, was made In an hour and fifty minutes, at 111.5 miles hour. EX-KAISER'S CRUEL CONDUCT AS HIS FATHER LAY DYING 'Lucky if He Had Fallen at Youth Declared, Filling Castle With Friends, Declares Robert Dohme, Court Member, in Memoirs. Spenai Cable to Tub New Yoik HuuldCopvrigM, lOtt, by The New Yoik Hsbald.

New York Herald Bureau. Berlin. April 89. "Why didn't father fall at Woerth?" meaning the battle of Woerth-an-derSauer in the Franco-German war In 1870, when the then Crown Prince Friedrlch Wilhelm defeated the French. "It would have been lucky," said the ex-Kaiser Wilhelm to his mother, the daughter of Queen Victoria.

according to Robert Dohme, who was a member of the court of Wllhelm's father, Friedrlch III. In his memoirs, now being published, Dohme in referring to the well known differences between father and son, describes the selfish behavior of Wilhelm's entourage on the occasion of his father's death. The day before he died officers attached to Wilhelm's suite forcibly entered the castle and occupied its rooms, making themselves at home and behaving like masters toward the attendants. The castle was surrounded by troops under the command of Wilhelm's friends, who cut the castle off from all communication with the neighborhood. While Kaiser Friedrich was dying nobody, not even physicians, could enter or leave without a permit from Wilhelm's friends.

Dohme concludes: "How the court had changed: A mild regime gave place to the sword. One could imagine oneself in the midst of Russia:" Seven Enter Race for Representative, While Two Are Campaigning for Senate. Special Dispatch to Tin Nsw York Herald Burmu, 1 Washington. D. AprU SO.

I I Eleven women are making active fights for seats in Congress, according to reports which reached here to-day, so that after next March 4 Representative Allco Robertson the lone woman In Congress, may have a colleague to chat in the House during the dull debases, or a companion it lunch other than some gallant masculine member. Of course, it is assumed hen that "Miss Alice" will be re-elected, although she has a "man-sized" fight on her hands. Women lobbyists of all kinds and persuasions are lined up against her, but her colleagues in the House "rooting" for her and believe she will bo returned by an increased majority. It is not at all improbable that a woman will enter the Senate at the next election, and another precedent of that dignified body will be shattered. Several women are running in the primaries and some of them have strong backing.

Mrs. Izetta Brown is making a fight for the toga now worn by Senator Swanson while Miss Belle Kearney wpuld like to have the seat occupied by Senator John Sharp Williams An far as Senator Williams- is concerned Miss Kearney can have his seat, as he is not a candidate for re-election. Some time ago he aid he would rather "bay the moon" than listen to harangues in the Senate, or words to that effect. Mrs. Peter Oleson is planning to put up a strong battle against Senator Kellogg in Minnesota, while Mrs.

Ella A. Boole has entered the list in New York on a dry platform in opposition to Senator Calder, whose term expired next March. The following women are running for the House: Mrs. Annette Adams, Assistant Attorney General during the regime of Mitchell Palmer, candidate in California. Mrs.

Leila Seton Edmundson, candidate in Alabama. Mrs. Irene C. Buell, Nebraska: Mrs. T.

T. Cotman, Arkansas; Mrs. W. A. Cullopp.

Indiana: Mrs. Winfred Mason Huck. Illinois, and Miss Alice rtson, Oklahoma. Mrs. Adams is an experienced campaigner and nationally known as a lawyer.

She plans an aggressive fight. Mrs. Huck also will make a good fight, as she is the daughter of the late Representative William E. Mason and will have the support of many of his friends. Miss Robertson has proved a good campaigner and as a member of the House she has learned many things about pontics that will be helpful to her In her race.

However, she faces much opposition, especially among the women voters. She has refused steadfastly to vote as the women lobbyists dictated, unless she was convinced the measure they supported was for the best interest of all.

Chapburn, Robert Hartshorn And John C. Jay, Jr. Poet-Soldier Asked to Return to Fiume and Assume Command of Organization. PREFERS A QUIET LIFE Home on Lake Garda Is Besieged by Vigorous Health. Special of Thi toik HmtiP.

New York Herald Home, April 15. I While Italy Impatiently for the moment when Gabriele d'Annunzlo will return to public life, he is living calmly in his villa on Lake Garda. That is, hois living as calmly as a man can who is constantly besieged by Fascisti who want him to return to Fiume, women who want him to fall in love with them and manufacturers of perambulators who want him to invent a name for a new product. D'Annunzlo's villa is appropriately called Falladio. which is Italian for fortress.

It is the same in which Wagner lived for several years. An intimate friend of the soldier-poet who recently visited him at Lake Garda has given The New York Herald details of als dally life. D'Annunzlo since his spectacular withdrawal from Flume in 1920 has been a voluntary exile from active political life. He. however, keeps Intimately in touch with what is going on and it la i.grecJ that he is merely waiting the moment for a dramatic reentry into The temperamental soldier left the Fiume incident to flounder diwated with political intrigues and the Ingratltude of tlfe world.

Since then he. has adopted a rather critical attitude toward the Fiscisti. declaring that they are 11 party tending toward civil war. when what Italy most needs is un ty harmony between hand and brain woiKers. He has never abandoned the idea that Fiume belongs by right but he expressed his conviction that th recent coup was an unwise political move He sent a wreath of flowers for a member of the Fascist! killed in the last Flume incident, with a line of regret that the soldier had wasted his life falling to await the hour.

Beatearcd by Viattora. Meanwhile Palladio is constantly besieged by visitors. D'Annunzio is to the Nationalists what Bismarck was to the Germans half a century ago. Every nationalist enterprise calls upon him to lend the power of his name. Some of I the Fascisti want him to come to Flume I and assume command.

Others want him to become the president of a sort or military Italian republic. Very recently the picturesque Giulettl turned over to him his position as president of all the seamen, and' Glno Baldesi. the Social Democratic labor leader, had a mysterious talk of seven hours with him. in which D'Annunzlo expressed the conviction that the reconstruction of Lurope was possible only through hard work. and that the world must have more respect for labor.

There are visitors of another kino Lately a Tunisian princess and a Norwegian poetess arrived on the same day to lay their homage and their hearts at his feet. D'Annunzlo's new wife, the pianist Baccara, has an unfriendly eye for his old fellow adventurers, but she has all guns set for aspiring females. But they continue to come. D'Annunzlo's wife Is unpopular with the who declare that theiv former leader is growing soft in her arms, while issues die out unchampioned. They even planned to kidnap him and take him out Into the glorious combat again, but the plot was discovered by the police and nipped in the bud.

Besides wis wife the soldier-poet Is guarded by his three servants, who by r. curious coincidence are called Dante, Virgil and Livy. The whole neighboring village takes a possessive Interest in the "Commendatore." He is divinity to the old men, whose common greeting is, "What is the Commendatore doing to-day?" The young man assured a cordial reception by the cafe groups la the one who can report that he saw D'Annunzio cutting flowers in his garden or walking with his secretary. Works Hard Brery Day. D'Annunzlo Is in vigorous health and works enthusiastically.

The rumor that he has become addicted to the cocaine habit is untrue. He has smoked only since the war. For several hours In the day D'Annunzio sits at a great hard at work. He has a prodigious collection of THE Fulton Street Branch OF THE NEW YORK HERALD AND Cbem'ng Celegram Has Been Moved TO 280 BROADWAY (Corner Reade Street) Main Office of The New York Herald dictionaries, encyclopedias and books of reference in languages, and uses them constantly. He sometimes makes a long search to find the right word.

He is very generous in interrupting bis lafbor, however, to do favors asked of him. The inventor of new brand of ink sent him a sample bottle, requesting D'Annunzlo to name it for him. The poet replied in an autographed letter that he had used the ink to write the last page of his novel "Nocturne'' and hadn't had to blow his pen once. "No Blowing" promptly became the name of the ink. D'Annunzio also found time to invent a name for a brand of cognac and for a new department store.

His motto now is: "I only possess what I have given to others." He has appropriate mottoes for his friends and dedications for everybody. He even Bent flowers to his former wife, the actress Eleonora Duse, at her last performance in Rome. Some of his friends say D'Aunnurzio Is an anachronism. They declare he should have been grand seigneur in the fifteenth century with an army of his own and a cause always sacred since it was his cause. As it Is.

he complains that there is no political party of which he can accept the leadership because none of them is pure of motive or worth fighting for. But admirers In many camps declare that after the Genoa conference has clarified the political atmosphero Gabriele d'AnnunzIo will emerge stronger than ever to head a new movement the glorification of Italy.

CONN. Mahonev Farm Increases $248,250 in Value in Fifty Years. Chicago, April 29 (Associated Press). thirty-four acre farm, less than twenty miles from Chicago's Loop, sold this week for $250,000. It was bought about fifty years ago for $1,750, so that its increase in value paid the family which held it for fifty years was $5,000 annually.

Its value, as soon as it is subdivided, is reckoned at $500,000. This place is the Malioney Farm, lying on Lake Michigan between two or Chicago's wealthy North Shore suburbs. It is a narrow strip between the: lake and Sheridan road, one of the busiest automobile arteries In the Midwest. Women of Chicago's western suburbs have nominated a woman for the Illinois Legislature tn a manner that has opened the eyes of men leaders to a political force which they thought they knew, but found that they didn't. The candidate is Lottie H.

O'Neill of Downers Grove, ono of three successful candidates out of eleven aspirants in her district in the April Republican primaries. Two incumbents, men. were given the favored flrst positions on the ballot and won two of the three places. Mrs. O'Neill's name was placed last, but her vote beat every one except the two incumbents.

Now the women are watching the Republican leaders to see what backing they will give the feminine candidate In the fall election, for normally the district electa two giving the third place to a Democrat. "The Bath" Knickers. Recent announcement that John J. Coughlin, Alderman from the First Ward, variously and widely known as "Bath Housa John" and "The Bath," would Introduce an ordinance barring women from wearing knickerbockers in public, recalls the fact that Mr. CoughHit Introduced a similar measure twentyseven years ago and it died.

The 1895 ordinance called for a fine of from $3 to JS for each offense. Under the 1922 model each violation would cost up to $200. "Any female person," ran Mr. Coughlin's original measure, "shall be prohibited to rtde or attempt to ride any bicycle, tricycle or to publicly promenade while dressed or arrayed in costumes commonly known as bloomers, knickers, baseball attire or trousers." It was flted and remained in oblivion more than a quarter of a century. A list of answers to make American weather experts who Insist that "things ain't like they used to be." admit the error of their ways has been evolved by T.

A. Donnel, meteorologist in the Chicago Weather Bureau. 'The winters aren't as long as they used to be!" "The winters aren't as cold as they used to be!" "The snow isn't as deep as it used to be Tlieso three sentences, according to Mr. Donnel, explain why tho weather man's life is not a bed of roses. "Records show." he said, "that the weather in the United States hasn't shown any appreciable change in the last hundred years.

Those who believe that the weather is milder nowadays forget that in their youth they lived in houses which were poorly heated, making the cold more noticeable. "When they tell you that the snow used to be deeper they forget that their legs used to be shorter." Jilted Suitor's RtTente. A joke is a Joke, but to read three separate notices of her funeral in two weeks ia too much, according to Emily Moll. At the last funeral Miss Emily had to entertain alone the mourners who had read the third notice. Her mother had fled, being unable to stand the strair.

of meeting the constant stream of solicitors for tombstones and cemetery lots. Miss Moll that it is all the fault of a rejected suitor, who has been inserting notices of her death In the newspapers merely to bother her. The attorney for her father was reported to be hot on the trail of the Jilted suitor. Dire punishment for the recklcu pedestrian as well as the careless motorist will be asked by Chicago automobile clubs, according to Dr. William Fuller.

"A trip about the city will ahnw that children in swarms are permitted to play in the public street, hitch to cars and trucks and make a playground out of spots as dangerous a a a railway right of way. "When speed maniacs are locked up; when pedestrians learn that they too. should share responsibility for avoiding accidents, and when the public streets no longer are used for public playgrounds, then will accidents become less frequent."
