Newark airport had 74 scheduled arrivals and depar tares each day at that time. But slnct then the number of arrivals and de partures at Chicago airport has been increased to 80 a day by the air lines while n reduction of air service out of Newark airport has dropped its' total to 72 planes a day. There is no question of the suprem icy of Chicago over Kuropoan cities, oecause most ot the air lines serving lOuropenn nations operate but one i?lane a day on each route while the argest air line In the United States. United Air Lines, operates 11 planes dally In each direction between Chi oago and New York alone! Chicago is served by tlve air line systems. Including the three big trans continental routes.

Baby's Cry, Roar of Lion Same to Count Cutelli Paris. ? It pays to make a noise pro vhlcd that's your profession, says Count Ma/zagllo Cutelli. native of lntly and naturalized American of lli 1 1 \ wood, who Is one of the highest paid noise makers In the business. "Ninety-two per cent of the natural noises needed in the movie business car.!!"' he recorded directly by the microphone,'' explains ? Count Cutelli "and that's where I come In." he adds "When you start n baby crying dl redly In the mike you soon find out that he yells so loud he drowns out the voice of the actress." Among the noises which the count has trained himself to make, some of which he does better than the orlg inula, are those of Hons, airplanes, mosquitoes, wind, n singing bulldog, which he enacted in "The Love I'made." and the crack of a gun. which part he took when "Scarface" brought down a rival gangster. In all. so far the count has 2.000 noises ' to his credit and is rapidly accumu lating more. Ueeently he took a trip to Hear Is land, off the coast of northern Scan dlnavla In a whaling ship so that he could converse with, not only the whales, but sea hlrds, s^ils and polar bears and get the lowdown on their favorite noises.

REBUILDS NATIVE , TOWN OF IL DUCE Italy Also Preserves Home m National Shrine. Predappio Nuova, Itfly. ? When a baby boy was born to Aleaaaudro and Rom Maltonl Muaaollnl 60 yeara ago In July, this village of 8,000 waa called Dovla. The boy waa to become Italy's present Duce, and Dovla, the most for tunate village In the country, waa to be rebuilt and renamed Predappio Nouva, this last word In Italian mean ing "new." And "new" la right. New houses, schools, city hall, church, square, mar ket and music grandstand ? all built In recent years and worthy of any fair sized city. The road. 16 kilometers long to Predappio Nouva from Forll Is good and winds Its way through an Inter minable series of gardens. The valley, known aa Del Rabbi, affords beautiful scenery. Luminous mountain tops crown the setting. The duce's native home easily Is discernible. Its old stones stand out clearly In the sunlight from among the newer constructions, almost as those 1 of a castle's might. The home consists of three parts. The middle section be longed to the Mussollnis and since has been declared by the state a national monument. To the left Is the shop and home of a carpenter. To the right Uvea a modest family, the same one that was there when Benito first saw the light of day. Mussolini Insisted that both partlea continue to inhabit their re spective quarters. Throughout the region of Romagna people speak of the duce with almost a hidden sense of Intimacy which bet ter may be expressed as follows: "He la one of ours." Any number of peasants, or trades men, here played with Benito aa a boy, and all agreed that whenever anything "good" was arranged, Mussolini waa unanimously sleeted their leader. For a time Alesaandro Mussolini alao was a mechanic and repaired the first tractors owned by these farmera. Ben ito, then twelve yeara old, would trudge behind his father carrying the tool box slung over one shoulder, these men recalled. Of the father, local Inhabltanta re call his strong character and a fiery, passion for politics. Of hla mother, a "aanta" ? aalnt ? always ready to help the needy, a real mother full of pa tience and forgiveness, they add. Exterior of New Palace for League Completed Geneva. ? The exterior of the league's new $5,000,000 palace, the world's largest parliament building, capable of houaing mqre than 8,000 statesmen, diplomats, experts, offl<Hala, pressmen and public, Is completed. The building, which Is about the aame size as the palace of Versailles, will be ready for occupancy In August, 1030, when the secretariat will, be moved from Its present cramped home In the Hotel National The general lines of the league pal ace represent an extreme simplifies tlon of classical Roman architecture Inspired by modern architectural ten dencies. Around the assembly hall, like boxes at an opera and just above the heads of diplomats, are a aeries of rooma exclusively for the use of film men and press photographers. Behind the Presidential chair of the assembly a tall screen will probably be built with lettera "SDN" In gold with blue back ground. Pressmen have been well provided for in the new palace. They have three bars, fifty telephone boxes, OTt seats in the assembly and council halls, two big writing rooma, two tele graph offices, radio office, broadcasting studio and fifty-five Information offices. American architecture has Influenced the construction of the new league palace, according to Julian Flegen helmer, Geneva architect and first prize winner with Nlnot, Paris, for a design of the new league home.

REFOREST IDLE LANDS? GROW TIMBER ''Qui plantavit curabit" ? He who has planted (it) will tend (to it). The foregoing statement appears on the unique shield of tho famous Roosevelt family, it is certainly symbolic of the retorestation-mindf d Franklin Delano Roosevelt. President Roosevelt's spirit and I'fTi convictions brought about tho stupen dous reforestation program in New; York state, the planting of forest trees on his own estate on the Hudson and has culminated in the National Reforestation program Emergency Conservation work. Millions of forest trees will bo planted during the period of this National Conservation Project throughout the country. The forest tree planting season is here in South Carolina. More than one million acres o f farm land have been abandoned within the state within the last ten ^ years. This great acreage of idle lands, mostly worn ut, is at least suitable for timber growing. Land owners, plant forest treo seedlings on these idle acres! Grow timber on these idle lands and make them pay their taxes amd derive a new revenue! ? Forest tree seedlings are offered for sale only where it is thought that they will not come up naturally, where eroded lands are in need of covering in ordet- to retain the soil, and where a more valuable species is desired on the part of the land owner. The following inventory of the Stato Forest Treo Nursery indicates the trees most availablo for distribu* tipn during tho winter o! 1938-34: Longleaf, 60,625; Slash, 146,440; Loblolly, 95,760; Shottleaf, 99,930; Black Locust, 55,200; Ash, 6,552; Walnut, 2,580. v These seedlings are sold at cost, the price being $3.00 per thousand in lots of less than 25,000, and $2.50 per thousand in lots over 25,000. Both prices are quoted delivered to the nearest post office or. express office. Planting recommendations are 1,000 trees per acre. Tho planting season w.ll extend to about Marc.l, depend' ing on weather conditions. Furthe? information on forest tree planting can be obtained by addressing a* South Carolina Forest Service, State Offico Building, Columbia. There is a steadily increasing interest in reforestation in South Carolina. The recent report from the State Forester's Annual shows clearly thist steady increase: "During the year just past one hundred and ninety nine forest tree plantations were made by as many different planters. 595,464 treeis were planted, 1 of which 481,910 were sold at the cost of production and planted as commercial plantings. Of the re mainder 58,199 were planted by schools as a part of their educational programs. The above figures represent an in crease of 13 percent in the number of plantens who purchased seedlings over the preceding year, and the number of seedlings represents ah increase of 26.2 percent over the seedlings sold the preceding year." The Emergency Conservation Work will in no small manner put our forest lands in a healthie: condition. for conservative use. Let us here iitfF South Carolina put our idle, aband oned farm lands to wrok by growing timber on them. F'lnn* For""* ot\ T'l'i * vwmmm IHUI ?wbli<atlo?a whkh l(? cntertalainf.
