The Spanish author, who was in voluntary exile because of the differences of his political views from those of the ruling powers of Spain, had been ill for several ays.

Yesterday his condition became orse and his two sons and a ughter were Summoned. One son was reported flying to 3 father's bedside.

"These flats were actually covered with thousands of pelicans and other water birds. Here and there a grass hut appeared and there were numerous dugouts with small sails, sometimes several miles out in the ocean.

"I flew low over some of the rivers I passed and could see dozens of alligators sunning themselves along the banks. Some of them must have been more than fifteen feet in length. "Now and then a miniature river appears, apparently from nowhere, and dashes out over a precipice to fall in a curtain of mist and disappear again in the jungle several hundred feet below." Thus a man flying through the air. and. as he savs.

Former Governor Pinchot a year and a half ago refused to approve a charter for the same company on the ground that operation of bus lines by the railroads mieht tend P3? wfi tation in Pennsylvania. He noi not only refused to Bign The Reading- company's application for incorporation, but refused to approve a similar application for the Pennsylvania General Transit Company, proposed $500,000 subsidiary oi the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. The Reading Transportation Com pany made a re-application for charter rights soon after the present State administration- began a year ago, but the Pennsylvania subsidiary has not yet applied. It.

is understood that it, too, will follow the lead of the Reading. Under the law charter applications for public utilities must be passed upon by the Public Service Commission prior to going to the Executive and the Secretary of the Commonwealth- for final approval. The Public Service Commission in 1926 approved the applications of both bus companies, holding that individuals and small motor bus1 lines were injuring the business of the railroads and that the'steam roads must be allowed to expand in order to prevent financial loss. Bus and automobile travel have caused the -elimination of several small railroad branches within the past few years. Governor Pinchot took issue with the commission, which he did not control, contending that it had acted unwisely in approving the applications.

The commission several months ago approved the Readme: Transportation application, using sim ilar language in its decision to that the 1926 opinion. The Schuylkill Railways Company and the Schuylkill Transformation Company, both of Schuylkill County, once appealed from this decision, asking the Superior Court for an injunction to restrain the commission from giving its approval to the char- i ter application. The court dismissed this case December 15 and the case was then carried on appeal to the State supreme Court which las week also dismissed the case Schuylkill County companies i ahheaaHknegd tZlTlIt MISS SARA GEIGER INGRAM at Luncheon 'jy ifrjftrrifimi'ffili'iTf mil nil ffrtft mi'M -Photo by Evans Bailey, Mrs. William G.

publicans as delegates-at-large to the Kansas City convention, will not be on the formal list when it is announced within the next few days, according to political talk at the Capitol. Grundy, who is the president of the Pennsylvania Manufacturers' Association, has been plaving a lone hand in the Pennsylvania political game, but it is said he will run as a district delegate in Bucks County, his home being Bristol. State Chairman W. L. Mellon would like to see the Grundy name among the seven, for if it can be placed there, it is said, he would feel the Mellon State organization would be given the Grundy support at the primary for David A.

Reed for Sena- tor and all the rest of the ticket. The name was put in the list pub lished this week as a "feeler" for this very purpose and, in order to get the name in. Senator Reed had to drop out. It has always been the custom for Pennsylvania to send its two United States Senators to the conventions. Reed also got out as a gentle hint to William S.

is not any more popular in the large majorities of Pennsylvania counties than he is with the United States Senators. Vare, however, demands that he be on the slate. Grundy's Course Puzzle Grundy's course, since the beginning of the 'Fisher administration, has been a puzzle to many persons. He is still getting Capitol Hill appointments but he is not as friendly with the State organization as its leaders would like. There are some county bosses, not in sympathy with the State organization, who believe Grundy would become the leader of the faction which would upset the vin Carbon, five in Lebanon and Dauphin, and twelve in Berks.

In the anthracite coal fields, from Mt. Carmel north, there was an even heavier fall, the ground being covered to a depth of more than three inches in many sections. This snow brought visions of better working conditions to the anthracite miners of this region. During the winter, mild thus far, the anthracite mines have been working on only a part time basis. It is believed that with the coming of generally cold weather throughout the State that the demand for coal will increase and the collieries will be able to resume operations on a normal basis.

BOSSY GILLIS VISITS IN CITY From Page One Bossy bestowed himself upon the coverlet in comfortable fashion and said: "Shoot." "Are you going to visit Mayor Walker?" somebody asked. "Sure. One-thirty Monday." "Why didn't you visit him today?" "Couldn't sleep long enough nervous." "Will you do the night clubs, in official fashion?" "Not in official fashion or even in a swallow-tail," Bossy replied. I don drink, smoke or chew and I might get in bad habits." "What do you think of New York?" "You've got too many cops, too many electric signs, not enough clocks, too much law, plenty of theaters, a mayor who gets more tpace in the papers than the mayor of Newburyport, and a darn fine start toward buildin' up the community." "Are you married?" "My only troubles are official ones." "Do you contemplate marrying?" "Well, I'm not so bad to look at," said Bossy, stroking his sandy hair, and bulging his muscles again. "I reckon I'm not a sheik, but I've got a few dollars, I'm a big guy in Newburyport and, after all, some of these New York women aren't bad." Not In Hurry "I'm only 31 years old.

This business of young folks rushing off into matrimony causes too much trouble as it is." Bossy then explained in detail how he happened to be mayor of Newburyport. "I have a gasoline station and garage business," he said. "I bought a house in the swell part of town and started to build a filling station. The mayor told me 1 couldn't so I gave him a sock on the chin, and he took a dive. "Well, they locked me up, but when I got out, I went out to beat him and I did.

Now I've made the i committee meeting. It was the suggestion that Col. Eric Fisher Wood was the chairman's choice as leader of the jiew committee. It is said Mr. Mellon, with a personal liking for politics, prefers to work as the power behind the throne and would like to see Colonel Wood as State chairman.

Colonel Wood, although he tendered his resignation to Chairman Mellon at the time of the testimonial dinner to himsejf two months ago, is still chairman-of the executive committee of the committee. He was asked about the rumor regarding the chairmanship of the larger committee while at the Capitol this week and smiled. Just a Messenger "I am the messenger of Mr. Mellon and go where he sends me," he said. Another rumor of the week "was that Charles Johnson, Secretary of the Commonwealth, will be slated by the organization for Auditor General.

Friends of Charles A. Waters, Philadelphia, Secretary of Labor and Industry, who has also been considered for this nomination, however, did not give up hope that he would be chosen. Both men are al-party and Mr. Waters is a Vare follower in addition. It ws said that the Senator-elect would prefer to see the Secretary' of the Commonwealth on the ticket-to his fellow-citizen, for the reason that two Philadelphians on the ticket in case the Vare name appears either at the primary or the general election would be one too many.

Supporters of Senator Reed are said to favor the Waters candidacy and may have strength enough to place Mr. Waters on the ticket, is the claim now. town a fit place to live In and I can have all the filling stations I want. I've cut down the speed of the town cops, believe you me. A man can put on his hat in Newburyport now without having a cop tell him how."

J. Smith, Allentown Call. Better Type of News The installation of the newly-elected president completed the convention, after routine matters of business and administration had, occupied the attention of the deje-' gates this morning. Dr. William T.

Ellis, of Swarth-more, and Merle Thorpe, editor of the Nation's Business, pleaded for a better type of news at the annual banquet last night. Mr. Thorpe said that the romance in business is much better than murder that goes on so frequently. He decried the modern tendency toward bureaucracy and Government regulation, saying that if other industries had used the same foresight in reg ulating their business as newspapers their would be no need for the myriads of Government bureaus. Doctor Ellis defined the primary business of journalism as "making that which is righteous readable." He said that there were three evils in modern life, namely, the cheapening of higher education, the professionalizing of religion, and the "Manhattanizing" of journalism.

He said that if a stranger' from Mars should pick up a copy of. an average daily, the stranger would get the impression that "the American mother is a shrew, the father a worm, the daughter a flapper and the son a sheik." The invocation at the banquet last night was given by the Rev. S. Winfield Herman, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church, and the benediction by the Rev. Joseph R.

weather chart yesterday, but a storm, which originated off the Virginia coast, swooped over the Middle nd North Atlantic states, striking its heaviest blow over Central Pennsylvania. The storm is passing rapidly, however, Ling said, and is now centering over the New England states. It extends to the western border of Pennsylvania. Despite the heavy fall, railroad and trolley companies experienced little trouble in maintaining traffic. Normal schedules were maintained this morning by the Pennsylvania and Reading companies, while trolley service in this city and vicinity is reported undisturbed.

The absence of wind has helped the situation materially, officials said, and with no drifts resulting the clearing of the rails is comparatively easy. Snowplows and sweepers were in cperation, however, on railroad and trolley lines this morning, while the Valley Railways put out a sweeper at 11 o'clock. The snow began falling at 11.15 o'clock last night and continued steadily throughout the night and morning. Reports to the Reading Company indicate a fall of two to four inches between Shippensburg and this city, four and seven inches between here and Lebanon and seven to twelve inches between Lebanon and Reading. All Highway Forces Combat Heavy Snows; Report Many Drifts The maintenance forces of the State Highway Department are at work in every county today for the first time this winter because of a snowfall that ranges from fourteen inches in depth in some eastern counties to one inch in the western counties.

Lancaster County's fall was fourteen inches and all snowplow3 of the department in that section was at work on the "main highways. Snow drifted considerably on the Lincoln Highway, west of Lancaster and on the Harrisburg pike. The roads were still open during the afternoon. The Lincoln Highway and the Lakes-to-Sea Highway in Chester County were badly drifted this afternoon but were open to traffic. The State's snow-removing' forces are put to work as soon as the snow reaches a depth of two inches.

The plows are kept moving as long as the snow lasts or as long as drifts do not prevent movement. Four inches of snow had fallen up to noon in Cambria County, fourteen inches in Lancaster County, one inch in Lawrence, three in Mercer, four in Erie, five in Venango, five in Clarion, two in Susquehanna, six in Crawford, one in Blair, one in Butler, three in Lehigh, two in Northampton, two giving secret information to Germany during the war and also a charge that the King was responsible for 'military disasters in Morocco and had them distributed throughout the world.

ARREST DRIVER AFTER CRASH From Page One 1224 Currant street, two other oc cupants of the Murray machine, also suffered serious injuries. The Burris woman was admitted to the Harrisburg Hospital suffering with a probable fracture of the skull and body injuries. Her condition was reported to be improved today. Grace Cooper, of 1224 Currant street, and Alfred Hill, of unknown address, who were riding in the front" seat with Murray, escaped with minor injuries.

Murray was only slightly injured. Claims Boy Ran Across Street Murray told the police, they say, that he was traveling northward in Cameron street when the Moreland b.oy ran diagonally across Cameron street from behind a street car. In an effort to avoid striking the youth Murray says he swerved his machine into the east curb, where it crashed into a telephone pole and turned over on its side. He insisted that he was not traveling at an excessive rate of speed. Witnesses told the police, they allege, that Murray was traveling faster than sixty miles an hour when the accident occurred.

Milnor to Give Report On Athletic Field Need Mark T. Milnor, former school director, who made a study and report, in November on the need for athletic fields at the junior high wants to discuss and explain his report to the Board as now constituted, and the directors decided to invite him to one of their budget sessions in the. near future. While the request was being debated, President Roth talked about the need for reducing the tax rate and the lack of equalization in city assessments. He warned his colleagues that "we fcre up against a taxation matter that is very serious." In the next moment.

he talked about the overcrowded conditions in the two junior high schools and the urgent need for relief.
