No.76
Craft Goes Above Thre Other Marks; May Now Spend Ten Days
in Air
Its motors and crew were reported to be in condition to remain aloft for at least 10 days, a goal set up just before taking off Tuesday.
Three records have already fallen before the Question Mark. First it beat the American mark for refueling endurance, then the world's refueling endurance mark, and next the record for heavier than air machines.
The immediate goal was the 118-horsepower Dixion, the longest made by an aircraft. Since the Question Mark refuels in mid-circuit the mark will be able to do more.
Officials announced that Rockwell field, San Diego had been abandoned because of damage from a bombing in bencefort the Imperial Valley airport near El Centro and the Van Noy Arena.
A message dropped by Majo Spatz this morning said that the motors were functioning perfectly but that the Question Mark was missed. All members of the crew ate a hearty breakfast of ham and eggs.

Jensen Reviews Taxation
Professor Issues Bulletin, "The Kansas Tax on Intangibles"
Jens P. Jensen, professor of economics, p. and two other economists, Harold Howe of R S.A.C. and Eric Engle of the United States department of agriculture, have been asked to Governor-scientist Harold Howe and to suggest remedies to the legislature which meets in January.
In reviewing his policies and thoughts upon this subject, Jensen and the bureau of business research of the School of Business have issued a bulletin called "The Kane Tax on Intangible Talents." It has been published by the Department of Journalism press and is ready for distribution.
The purpose of the bulletin is to present an upward trend of the results in the years of 2014 and 2015 principally the revenue yield, redistribution of the tax burden, and reduction of the tax burden.
"It is hoped," says Professor Jensen, "that this study will be useful to some extent in suppressing the laws of Kansas, and, in a wider field, contribute to the understanding of the classified property tax and of property taxation."
Copies of the bulletin will be sent to the Kansas legislators. The work is a sixty-six page pamphlet and will sell for fifty cents per copy.

Washington, Jan. 4. — The conquest of influenza has not lagged for lack of work by physicians and other scientists nor for back of brave men to treat their tumors' experiments. Influenza, like yellow fever, has its heresy who faced illness and death, in order that mankind might bacillit. During the epidemic of 1918, 40 men allowed flu-bacillus to colonize bacillus and with secretions from noses and threats of influenza patients and even went to visit influenza patients, taking with them and subduing the idea of being coughed at by them.

The interval between inoculations was short (the donors and inoculation of the volunteers was progressively reduced in these experiments so that in the third week all 20 patients had most was 20 seconds. No in instance was an attack of infiltration produced in any one of the subjects.

H. B. Hungerford Returns From Survey in Europe of Entomology Collections
European museums gave most cordial reception to Dr. H, B. Humgerford, state entomologist, and head of the department of entomology at the University of Wisconsin, where he turned Thursday from an eight months visit in Europe.
"What finer hospitality could be extended than we received in Vienna," she said. "We have a museum, reaiting the limited time I had to work, give me the keys to my room, and to see us as early as I wished, and stay as being as I wished," said Doctor Humphrey.
Doctor Hungerford I went to Europe for the purpose of comparing insects in the University of Kansas collection in the east—and the west—with the type collections in the older museums of Europe. He took with him several thousand speciates from North America, and some from South America. Comparisons with the specimens in the European museum consisted of many cases, and not been correct, but now the Kenyan collection corresponds by the earlier European scientists.
The Kansas collection will be greatly enriched, Doctor Hungerford said, by specimens of European insects he obtained through exchange.
"By the personal visit we have a tablelined room, furnished to make further changes of material to an extent that would have been impossible by correspondence."
Aids Future Work
Doctor Hungerford spent nearly three months in the national museum at Paris, and made visits to two museums: the National Museum of War, Perthshire museum in Scotland, Cambridge, Oxford and London (seven weeks) two museums in Bergen (three weeks) one museum in Oslo, Kopenhagen, University of Stockholm, University of Uppsala, one of the oldest in Europe, Dresden, Prague, Vienna, Budapest and in Berlin.
Doctor Hungerford went as a collaborator for the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, and stopped in New York to meet with his assistants. He also attended meetings of the American Association for Advancement of Science in New York.

Jobs Secured Total 397
Work Since June 1 Exceeds Last Year's Record
A recent report of the Y.M.C.A. employment bureau revealed that a total of 307 jobs, odd temporary and full-time, were needed to meet their efforts for the students of the University since June 1, 1928, compared with the total of 307 jobs for the student body of the University. Y.M.C.A., has rendered this service free of charge, and has succeeded in retaining the majority of the students who depend largely on themselves in meeting financial obligations at the University, according to Sam Hutchison's social secretary of the organization.
From the recent records compiled it was found that since last June 125 of the 329 students employed have been awarded a total of permanent jobs for the previous school term amounted to only 7%. In the last eight months clears to 450 calls have been turned in by the services of University students.
The figures recorded *do not* take into account the numerous jobs suggested by the Y.M.C.A, that are not filled. The company has been "bled." Mr. Carter said.
The Y.M.C.A. requests that students with applications for employment who seek jobs, notify them by phone or e-mail and provide current positions for them may be discontinued. All students who need the Y.M.C.A. call the Y.M.C.A. and the application.

Flyer Carrying Serum Is Lost in Alaska
Pace River, Alaska, Jan. 4. —(UPC)
—Another drama of the North was veiled in mystery today after Capt. W, O. May, river, had taken off from here carrying "therapy" cargo for Port Fortune, suffering from a dinamous epidemic.
Captain May should have reached Port Vermilion, 250 miles northeast of her last night with the 500,000 man-made land that made it impossible to communicate with the port. It may be several days before it is known whether he failed to reach them.
If Captain May was forced down in the hawken country, he would have to walk to one of the nearest of the widely scattered trading posts.
