Wade Aboard "Richmond" Much Concerned Over Loss of His Plane Reykjavik, Iceland, Aug. 5-(By A. -.) -Lieut. Lowell H. Smith in the Chicago and Lieut. Eric Nelson in the New Orleans, arrived here from Hoefn Hornafjord on the cross-Iceland lap of their round-the-world flight at 2:15 this afternoon. Both planes landed on the waters of the inner harbor, making fine land- ings. The two pilots with their me- chanics, Lieut. Leslie P. Arnold and Lieut. John Harding, Jr., were feeling well and their machines were in good condition. The American army airplanes on their world flight hopped off at 9:15 o'clock this morning for Reykiavik. In the get-away, the Chicago, with Lieut. Smith and Lieut. Leslie P. Ar- nold, his mechanician took the air first. Lieut. Eric Nelson and Lieut. John Harding, Jr., in the New Orleans, fol- lowed a moment later. They circled the harbor for a moment, waved far- wells and then headed along the Ice- land coast toward their destination. Every precaution was taken by the naval patrol to guard the two remain- ing army airplanes in their short flight. The U. S. Raleigh remained at Hoefn Hornafjord, where the "New Orleans" piloted by Lieut. Eric Nelson landed from Kirkwal, Scotland, on Saturday and the "Chicago" commanded by Lieut. Lowell H. Smith on Sunday. The destroyer Billinsley was sta- tioned 20 miles east of Reykjavik,1 while the Richmond arrived at Rek- javik at 2 p. in. The distance of the flight was slightly more than 300 miles. Lient. Leigh Wade and his mech- .anician, Sergt. Ogden, who are aboard the Richmond, are rested after their trying experience of Sunday in which they lost their plane, the "Boston" after a forced landing at sea on the way from Kirkwall to Hoefn Horna- fjord. They appear most concerned over the loss of their machine, which they had hoped to salvage for senti- mental reasons, even if they never flew it again.

The publication of the 1924-1925 ed- iion of Who's Who in America marks its 25th anniversary. The first edition was published in 1899 and a revised edition has been published every two years since that time. The names for Who's Who are selected in an effort to choose the best known men and women in the country. At the pres- ent time there are 25,356 names in the edition. This represents one out of every 4,800 of the total popula- tion of the United States. The death roll has made necessary the omission of 1,129 sketches which appeared in the last volume. Retire- ment from public office, when official position was the only ground for in- clusion, also accounts for the elimin- ation of a number of names. A total of 1,695 sketches have been eliminated in this volume. This edition of Who's Who contains a study of the educational advantages enjoyed by the people listed in Who's Who in America, with educational statistics and also a study concerned with the women in Who's Who by Prof. Stephen S. Visher, of Indiana University. Detroit has a list of 168 names in the new edition of the book. The state of Michigan has two and one-third pages devoted to an index of its prom- inent residents in Who's Who. The qualifications for admission to Who's Who in America divide the elig- ibles into two classes: (1) those who are selected because of special prominence in creditable lines of work, thus making them subjects of interest to the country; and (2) those v-ho are included on account of offic- ial position-civil, military, religious, naval or educational. {.,-m, .' , Prince Wilhelm eldest son and political heir of the former crown prince of Germany, is now a clerk in an exporting firm in Hamburg.

Reed, of the polit- ical science department, was the principal speaker at the joint banquet of the Men's and Women's Education- al clubs held last evening in the large Union dining room. His subject was1 "The Present Political Situation." Professor Reed declared that polit- ical parties in the United States have lost their power as instruments for the expression of public opinion, and that they live now because they agree to differ. He characterized them as mere vote registering machines; "they are like the snake that still wiggles after it is dead until the sun goes down." According to the speak- er, however, the sun has not yet set. The lesson that the teacher must take from the present situation, said the speaker, is that young people must be taught in the schools to "think hard and think straight on questions of public policy," They must realize that the greatest single agency for good or evil is government, and that that government rests upon the con- sent of the governed. Other speakers on the program in cluded Prof. C. S. Berry, Mr. L. A Butler, superintendents of schools in Grand Rapids, Miss Frances Speaker Sen. Roy S. Copeland, of New York and Prof. C. Spearman, of the Uni versity of London. A telegram from Dean A. S. Whit- ney brought his greetings. Several musical numbers were furnished b the Wolverine quartette, and by Mis Margaret Krug and Miss Helen Van Blois. Mr. Ernest Newland enter- tained those present with dialect stories.

Spearman Lectures "Individual Differences In" Ability on1 PRAISED FOR PART PLAYED IN RESTORING RELATIONS Washington, Aug. 5-(By A.P.)- President Coolidge today accepted theE formal resignation of Charles B. War- ren as ambassador to Mexico.t In a statement accompanying his .resignation which was made publicl at the White House with the Mr. Cool- idge's letter of acceptance Mr. War- ren criticized the Wilson policy in. Mexico and declared American pro- perty and rights would be protected there under the new relations between the new nations.t President Coolidge praised Ambas- sador Warren's part in restoring dip- lomatic relations with Mexico and de-z clared the envoy represented at all1 times the fundamental desire of our1 country to see such conditions estab- lished that we could assist in the de- velopment of their country and theE promotion of the welfare of their peo- ple." "Your mission to Mexico," the pres- ident said, "has been attended with the most gratifying success.

CAMPIN PLANS WAIT FOR DAVIS SPEECH Washington, Aug. 5.-(By A.P.)- Completion of the campaign plans of the Republican party will await the acceptance speeches of President Coo- lidge and John W. Davis, the Demo- cratic nominee. Party eaders here say they will not regard the campaign as definitely under way until they have an opportunity to assess the recep- tion of the speeches by the opposition and the public. All members of the national com- mittee are expected to be here for the W(IPPLE GIVES ACCOi;NT OF SPEAKER'S STUDIES An unusually large audience gath- ered in the Natural Science auditor- ium yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock to hear the lecture given by Profes- sor C. Spearman, of the University of London, England. Dr. Whipple of the school of educa- tion, introduced the speaker, giving a iricf account of his studies in Ger- many, his work in the World War, ant a resume of his works as an au- thor. "Individual Differences in Ability" was the subject of Professor Spear- man's address. This subject might be expressed as differences in intel- lgence, the speaker thought. Psy- chologists have never agreed on the definition of this term, however. He explained that in ancient times intel- ligence meant the exercise of the fac- uties of intellect, such as sense, im- agination, memory, and attention, and showed how the measurements of In- telligence now are merely measure- ments of the faculties. A classifica- tion of these measurements implies correlation, Professor Spearman de- clared, but the correlation Is never perfect. Ability may be judged by a calculation of the basis of the classi- fication. WILL BURY TOWNSEND THURSDAYIN JACKSON Jackson, Mich., Aug. 5.--Funeral services for Charles E.

COMMITTEE GIVES wAy TO CONSERVE ON POWER If the increasing electrical power demands of the Northeastern area of the United States are to be supplied on an economical and adequate basis, It will necessitate the extension of in- i terconnections between the different systems, the building of large, cen- tralized steam-electric plants located at strategic points, and the develope- ment of large hydro-electric projects, according to the conclusion reached in the report of the engineering sub- committee of the Northeast Superpo- wer Committee made public at the Department of Commerce. Herbert Hoover is chairman of this Commit- tee. These recommendations, in the Committee's opinion, will mean the saving of over 50,000,000 tons of coal every year; production of power at less cost; security in power supplies against interruption with its losses through disturbed production and un- employment; larger reserves of power through which other industrial de- velopment need not lag, awaiting pow- er construction; electrification of transportation with increase in its ef- ficiency; extension of power uses to the farm and saving of human ef- fort. The present report is an outgrowth of a conference held in New York 'City last October between Secretary Hoover and the chairman of the State Utilities Commission of the eleven Northeastern states. GERMAN DELAES JOIN CONFERENCE ON REPARATIONS MACDONALD GIVES MARX PRO- GRAM FOR PUTTING DAWES PLAN INTO EFFECT HOPES FRIDAY NIGHT WILL END CONFERENCE Germans Want to Find Best Method For Using Plan Without Alteration London, Aug. 5-(By A.P.)-Pre- mier MacDonald, presiding at a plen- ary session of the interalhied confer- ence at noon today, formally handed to the German delegation the proto- col embodying the program of the conference for putting the Dawes re- paration report into effect. He asked the Germans to study the report and be ready to express their opinions tomorrow. The premier said he wanted to bring the conference to an end by Friday night. The session which was held at the premier's official residence in Downing street, lasted only 30 min- utes and was opened by a welcoming address delivered by Mr. MacDonald. The German delegates headed by Chancelor Marx, foreign Minister Stresemann and Finance Minister Lu- ther, arrived in London at 8:30 a. m., fully prepared for the meeting having familiarized themselves with the ac- tion of the conference committees while en route from Berlin. They were accompanied from Harwich by Premier Gustav St. Hamer, the Ger- man ambassador in London. Replying to Mr. MacDonald's wel- come Chancellor Marx said the Ger- man government had accepted the Dawes plan and was putting through the necessary legislation to make it effective. The German representatives he said, hoped to maintain the friend- ly spirit of the original experts and hoped the allies would do the same. Upon their arrival in London the German delegates through their spok- esman, Herr Spiecker, said they wish- ed to assist in finding the best method of putting the Dawes report into ef- fect without ateration and in the spir- it of its author, and that they would contribute their part to its loyal ful- fillment. Herr Spiecker expressed the hope that the same spirit would be found In London, in which event, he said, there would be no difficulty in com- ing to a speedy agreement. The first meeting of the Germans with the delegates of the inter-allied conference was strictly formal, held in an atmosphere of restrained cor- diality.
