Naval aviation regulations government naval ail eruft in flight are devised to cut the visk to machines anr fliers to the lowest point possible, it was asserted today in an explanation of naval practices made public by Secretary Denby. The regulations include provisions for enabling the planes to keep constantly in touch by radio with ships or shore stations along the route insuring prompt assistance in case of disaster and minimizing the danger of losing a plane and its crew at sea. No naval plane is dispatched over a route where it will be at any time completely out of touch with the radio stations at one end or the other of the route, the explanation said. The power of the radio equipment in any plane selected for "such a flight must be sufficient, under the regulations, to span a little more than half the total distance of the flight ordered. If a thousand miles is to he covered, the radio plant in the plane must be sufficient to communicate more than 500 miles." When there is any possibility of a forced landing between the start and the end of the flight, two planes must be sent together. In case one is forced down it is assumed that the other will be able to hover above and report and then make a landing itself to aid the disabled machine. As another precaution position reports must be sent by the machines in flight at regular intervals while making the passage. Should some extraordinary accident force down both planes simultaneously and silence their radio calls, rescue parties can be rushed to the place of the last position and begin the search with reasonable hope of picking up the aviators in a comparatively short distance from that spot. As a final precaution all naval panes are equipped with rocket pistols to fire color signals at night to guide rescuers to their aid.

HEROES' BODIES RETURNED HOME New York, April 2.?Arrival of the last of America's 70,000 war dead ' was commemorated in Brooklyn to1 day. One body, that of Private Charles ' W. Graves of Rome, Ga., symbolized for the time the bodies of the 1,065 soldiers which were returned from ' France last week on the United States troop ship Cambrai. Amid the hushed vastness of an army pier his 1,064 silent comrade"", in long unbroken ranks of flag draped caskets, maintained the bivouac of the dead, while sorrowing thousands of high and low degree paid the last respects of a grateful nation. His body enthroned on a gun caisson and drawn by six horses, had been borne through the ranks of si"lent multitudes. Stern generals had saluted the flag which wrapped him. Hundreds of his comrades had marched beside him. Guns had boomed tn his honor, statesmen had euologized his deeds, mothers had wept over him. and "taps," the soldier's farewell, had given him godspeed. The body of Private Graves had been chosen to receive the honors of the day because he, of the 1,065 aboard the troop ship, was the last to be taken from the hold and placed on his native soil. Thus it was that he was 'he center of a profoundly solemn demonstration while his comrades waited in the echoing silence of the big terminal.

BELFAST SCENE OF MORE BLOODSHED Belfast, April 2 (By the Associated Press).?Four men were shot and killed and three children were wounded last night in the Sinn Fein area near the Old Lodge Road district. The ages of the men ranged from 40 to 03. The children are two, seven and 13 years old. It was another grim week-end for Belfast. The shooting of the men is believed to have been in reprisal for the killing Saturday of Constable George Turner. The assassin fired at Turner from a vacant house and made his escape. The news of the shooting of the policeman spread rapidly, and despite the curfew hour last night, there were scenes of excitement in the streets. I^ater heavy rifle and revolver firing punctuated with the shrieks of women and children was heard and shortly afterwards the bodies of the four men were taken to a hospital, where the three wounded children also were conveyed. The father of the children, Joseph Walsh, was one of the men who was killed. All of the killings took place in the homes of the victims. Walsh was lying in bed with turn vnnntrpr philHroti anH the bullet which killed him wounded them. The two year old Bridget was shot through the head. Frank Walsh, son of Joseph Walsh, was stopping with his grandmother a few doors distant from the Walsh home. The grandmother's house also was raided. The intruders rushed upstairs, seized Frank, who was trying to make his escape through a window, and pitched him downstairs. His injuries are not serious. The grandmother said after the raid that Joseph Walsh had served five years in the war on the Western front. She had 13 sons and nephews in the war, only two of whom returned. "And this is my reward on their return," the old lady sobbed. In the home of a relative of the Walsh family this morning a bullet passed through the arm of a neighbor holding a baby and pierced its stomach, wounding it fatally, Garvey was found lying in the road ut midnight last night, three miles from Newry. There were two bullet wounds in hit) head. Orange bfall, near Newry and close to the scene of the recent train burning, was destroyed early this morning. Armed men ordered out the woman caretaker and her four children, threw out the furniture and set fire to the building. The woman and her children were left in the darkness on the bleak mountainside until they were befriended by neighbors.

Counsel for the bus driver entered a plea of not guilty when Zalkin was arraigned in West Side court, and sought to have his client released on bail, but Magistrate Cobb refused the request that "no one traveling on the street nowadays is safe."

W. S. Fore. STRIKE CENTERS AT LAWRENCE ?: Boston, April 2.?For the moment; observers of the New England textile strike are focusing their attention on' the big mill center of Lawrence. The i strike which began in Rhode Island in: January and spread to New Hamp-J shire and isolated points in Massachusetts in the middle of February, is j only a week old in the most easterly of the mill cities on the Merrimae! .river. Because the strikers there are largely unorganized there is more of a feeling of uncertainty than in Manchester and Nashua, N. H., farther up: the river, and in the Pawtuxet and Blackstone valleys of Rhode Island where under the direction of union! leaders the striking operatives have settled down almost into a routine. Two unions are trying to organize the Lawrence strikers, estimated to number about 10,000 in seven mills. Leaders of the One Big union, after being refused cooperation by the heads of the United Textile Workers of America, are attempting to swell j their rangs and laying plans for inde-; pendent strike conduct. Thomas F. McMahon, president of the United, Textile workers,-has made Lawrence | his headquarters for New England. Of the Lawrence mills in which the, strike was called last Monday because I of 20 per cent wage reductions, two! were closed early last week. The other five, including the largest plant, the Pacific mills, kept a part of their machinery in operation throughout the week and announced that they would be open tomorrow. In addition to thi ! strikers 7,000 operatives are idle in Lawrence because of the closing of the Arlington mills, which did not an-j nounce any wage reduction but attributed its shut down to unfavorable market conditions. In Rhode Island the Amalgamated Textile Workers, in charge of the strike in the Pawtuxet valley, are concentrating their efforts on trying to 'jstablish their -efforts on trying to establish their right to have as many pickets as they wish at any of the ipiUs, Thep hav^ started a test case police or the national guard officers on duty in the valley have any statutory authority for enforcing a rule that in certain cases only three men shall beb allowed to picket a mill. Leaders of the United Textile Work ers, who have recently led delegations of Blackstone valley strikers to the state house in Providence to wat<h proceedings in the senate with regard to a 48 hour bill before that body, are seeking to have the senate galleries reopened to them. On their last visit Lieutenant Governor Gross barred them from these galleries on the ground that they had disturbed the session on a previous appearance. Aside from active organizing and fund raising by the United Textile Workers, the last week has developed little of interest in connection with the strike in New Hampshire. No effort at mediation is under way in any of the three states and prospects of a strike settlement appear remote. About fiO.000 operatives are now idle. Mrs. Sarah Sanders Dies From Heart Failure Mrs. Sarah Sanders, aged 6.r?, died suddenly while about her household work, at the home of her granddaughter, Mrs. Milton Lee, at Trough yesterday.

SUMTER MAN IS REFUSED NEW TRIAL Sumter, April 2.?An order refusing a new trial to J. C. Wallace has been filed with the clerk of court by Judge S. W. G. Shipp, the motion for a newtrial having been made before him at the do; e of the spring term of court of general sessions in February. Wallace, a white man, w as convicted of attempted criminal assault on a young girl and was sentenced to die in the electric chair. The motion for a newtrial was based on an affidavit mad" by N. B. Cocherill, chief witness against Wallace, to the effect that his Cockerill's testimony, at the trial was false. The state, however, also presented an affidavit from Coekerill of a iatei date, alleging that this fir^t affidavit had been made when he was intoxi eated and that he did not know what he was doing. A number of affidavits were filed by both sides as to the character of the witnesses, sane condition of Coekerill when he made his first affidavit, and testimony given at the trial. Judge Shipp in his order said: "Several affidavits set forth that N. B. Coekerill and Mrs. Dora K. Wallace, witnesses in the trial of th s case for the state, had made statements since the trial contradicting and repudiating their testimony. One affidavit is made by N. B. Coekerill in which he states that he repudiates his testimony given on the trial. However, he makes an affidavit in renlv that he was drink when he signed the affidavit in ques tion and did not know what he was signing, and that he has never made statements in conflict with his testimony and that he reaffirms the testi many as given at the trial. An affi davit in reply is made by Mrs. Dora E. Wallace that she has never made statements in eonflict with her testimony and that she reaffirms the same. "I have carefully read the testimony in the trial of this case and all of the affidavits produced before me and under the law as laid down in the following cases, to wit: State vs. Workman, 38 S. C. 550; state vs. Adams, 78 S. C. 523 and state vs. First Test of Strength Of Coal Strike Indianapolis, April 3.?The first test rf strength of the nationwide coal strike came today at the beginning of | suspension of the Saturday annual holiday among the miners, having failed to determine the exact effectiveness of the walkout. The United Mine Workers' headquarters expressed confidence that the day's developments would confirm the union's estimate of <500,000 men, among them being 100,000 nonunion workers, laid down their tools for an indefinite period of idleness. A tacit truce between the miners and the operators is counted on apparently to make the union's estimate a certainty. A few. if any, of the operators in the big coal centers are strongly unionized and expected to attempt an early resumption of operations. The situation, however, is in doubt in the non union and open shop districts. The Times Apoligizes In the write-up of the bi.vr fire Rat urday the Union Mill fire company's name was inadvertently omitted from the list of fire fighters and The Time: apologizes for the omission and has tens to correct it. The Times' reporter did nut wake iu until the fire was nearly out and " <? his information se-ond-hand, hut the people who were at the fire knew that the Union Mill fire fighters were there and did heroic work in extinguishing the blaze. It seems from the authorities that this is the third time the name of tin Union Mill fire fighters has been omitted from a list and we here and now beg their pardon for any omission Sat urday, or any previous time and will endeavor in the future to investig it?' more thoroughly. The wild cat whistle did not blow to arouse the public, and the editor slept serenely through the disturbance and gathered the facts the next morn ing. Let us again assure the Union Mill fire fighters that the omission was unintentional and we hope they will continue the good work of fighting every blaze that ought not to be and forgive The Times for sleeping so soundly and not being on the job.

BOTH WAIT FOR STRIKE REACTION I Washington, April 3.?The union I coal miners who suspended work on Saturday in a nationwide coal strike declared by John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, to be desirous of ending the suspension operations at the earliest possible date, but the resumption of production entirely depends upon the future attitude of the coal operators. Mr. Lewis is before the house labor committee hearing the Bland resolution for the appointment of a commission to investigate the industry, and said his organization would welcome any impartial and judicial investigation of the general conditions of the bituminous and anthfacite industries. The second day of the countrywide coal mine strike passed quietly with hoth sides preparing for the first test of strength which was expected today. Union officials maintained that 600,000 men, of whom 100,000 were nonunion miners, were idle Saturday and that 6,200 mines were closed, only some 1,500 open shop pits being in operation. While not disputing these figures operators declared many of those men would return to work Monday as Saturday was observed as a holiday, the anniversary of the granting of the eight hour day in the mines. West Virginia operators, also, were reported preparing to reopen unionized mines on an open shop basis. In the main, however, both sides were expected to observe a tacit truce and make no effort for the time beI ing to operate the mines. The miners are supplying the engineers and pumpers necessary to protect the pits from flooding. In the meantime the eyes of the country will be turned to Washington, where John L. Lewis, international president of the miners, will appear before a congressional committee to testify regarding strike issues. Governmental officials have held that only the existence of an emergency could justify government mterof adequate supplies of coal on hand throughout the country. High School Auditorium Tonight The county campaign to raise funds for the Salvation Army in Union county begins today and the special speaking at the High school auditorium at 8 o'clock tonight by Prof. Adolph Vermont of the Converse College will add much enthusiasm to this campaign.
