MIAMI DAMAGE
NOT SO HEAVY AS
FIRST ESTIMATE
Sane Estimates Place Loss in
Miami Area at Seventy*
five Million
ALL OF STRICKEN CITY
WENT TO CHURCH SUNDAY
_
All Houses of Worship in Strick
en City Had Larger Congrega¬
tions Than Ever Before, Re¬
ports State.
Miami, Fla., Sept. 27 i'/P)--Far on
the road to recovery Miami and her
neighboring communities in the storm
swept area today resumed their inter¬
rupted task of rehabilitation general¬
ly after the Sabbath observance.
Observation through the greater
Miami zone during the week of re¬
construction has prompted saner esti¬
mates of the property losses than was
possible on the heels of the storm.
Business leaders concur in the be¬
lief that the Miami zone suffered to
the extent of approximately seventy
live million dollars, which figure was
named originally.
All of Miami went to church Sunday
to give thanks that the devastation
of the city in the hurricane and tidal
wave of a week ago had not exacted
a toll greater than it did. The official
death list today reached 114 and 235
persons were listed as officially miss¬
ing. There was no (change in the
property damage estimate for the en¬
tire district which a half week ago
approximated $160,000,000.
Regular services were held in
churches left standing by the wind,
while hundreds of persons attended
worship in temporary quarters, and
thousands gathered at an open air
union service amidst the lauches and
ships high and dry in Royal Palm
Park across from Henry M. Flagler’s
famous old Royal Palm hotel on Bay
shore Drive.
Many of the bodies of storm vic¬
tims were relegated to graves wit-h
out benefit of clergy and today’s serv
ices took the forms of funerals and
requiem masses.
After the church hours thousands
of Miamians garbed in their finest,
and many persons from up the coast
drove about the city and its environs
sightseeing. They provided sights
themselves, for many wore clothing
obviously damaged by the wind-blown
water and a great majority drove au¬
tomobiles torn and rusted by the
storm.
Royal Palm Park, with its specta¬
cle of boats, ranging from a great
freighter, through a coast guard pa¬
trol boat, an Eagle rum boat chaser,
to houseboats and launches was a
meeca for sightseers, as were Miami
Bench, Cdconut Grove, Coral Gables
and the Brickel avenue area of Miami,
the palatial homes of the rich.
ILLNESS OF ENVOY
OF SOVIET CHARGED
TO RITTER ENEMIES
London, Sept. 27 (/P)—Leonid Kras
sin, who is expected to return to Lon¬
don today to resume his post as soviet
charge d’affaires, is stricken with per¬
nicious anemia in a most unusual
form, says The Sunday Express, the
newspaper adds there is a widespread
feeling among Krassin’s friends that
•he has been poisoned in some subtle,
way ‘by 'bitter enemies among the
Moscow extremists.
Krassin was stricken with what was
first reported to he pneumonia in Par¬
is early this year. Several times he
«has been revived by blood transfu¬
sions. The paper comments on the
peculiar irony that czarists have been
driven by poverty to offer their blood
to save the life of one of the soviet
leaders.
FRENCH AVIATORS
TOP OFF TO TRY
NON-STOP RECORD
Paris, Sept. 27 (/P)—In an effort to
establish a new non-stop flight record,
Aviators Coste and Bevitroles hopped
off at Le Bourget at 6 o’clock this
morning and headed for Africa. They
hope' to land near Victoria Nyanza, by
Tuesday daybreak. They carried 200
gallons of gasoline and 60 gallons of
oil and are confident they can remain
aloft for forty-eight hours. Dieu
donne Coste was with Robert Thierry
in the ill-fated attempt at the non¬
stop record last year when they clash¬
ed in the Black forest.

NEW AUTO ROUTE
TO COME VIA CITY
IS SUGGESTED
SECRETARY FRED G. WAR l)E
TAKE- INITIATIVE STEP
IN THE MATTER
Secretary Fred G. Wardc, of the
Brunswick Board of Trade, is sending
out an adontie letter t day to board
of (rude ifficials, mayors and others
in the leading cities 'between Colum¬
bia, i>. (b, and Jacksonville, Fla., in
an initial move ment to form the Co¬
lumbia. Augusta, 'Brunswick airline
automobile route to Florida.
it i believed that such an organi
zation would have a good effect in
centralizing traffic between the cities
and would mean much to the pivotal
points -.Columbus. Augusta. .Jacks m
ville and Brunswick. It will he noted
that tile plan is to call this line the
ABC short route to Florida. The let¬
ter of Secretary Warde is as follows:
“Since putting into effect our $25,
000 advertising campaign, we have
received hundred of inquiries from
tourists, (probable settlers) who have
expressed a desire to come through
Columbia, S. C., Augusta, Ga., thence
to Brunswick and possibly to Jachson
and other points in Florida, and
the idea has been advanced from vari -
ous towns between Columbia,
ta, Brunswick and Jacksonville that a
direct airline highway be featured,
connecting up Ihe four cities men¬
tioned, to be known as the Columbia
Augusta-Brunswick Air Line, the A.
B. Short. Route to Florida.
“After reaching Augusta this
way would pass through the following
towns between Augusta, Brunswick
and Jacksonville: Wrens, Louisville,
Swains-'horo, Lyons, Reidsville, Ludow
ici, Darien, Brunswick. Waverly,
Woodbine, Kingsland and St. Marys
in Georgia, and Fernandina and Jack¬
sonville in Florida. As you will ob¬
serve by the map enclosed this route
is a real Air Line between the two ob¬
jective points, Augusta and Jackson¬
ville.
“If' this appeals to you as it no
doubt will, it would be our idea to call
a meeting of all of the interested
towns at Augusta or some central
point, and organize with the distinct
understanding that the association
should have no paid officers, with the
only expenses incident to keeping the
organization going that of postage
and stationery. The officers should he
outstanding men from the cities on
this route, and it is a foregone con¬
clusion that with the Air Line given
right publicity that we could control
a large percentage of the tourist traf¬
fic both south bound and north bound.
“Kindly advise promptly if you con¬
cur in this proposition, so that we
may call a meeting with as little de¬
lay as possible.”

DAVIS DECLARES
CITIES SHOULD
HAVE AIR PORTS
ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF WAR
GIVES REASONS IN SPEECH
AT BUFFALO, X. Y.
Buffalo, -N. A'., Rent. 27.- Every
’city in the United States should es¬
tablish an air port for the advance¬
ment of commercial aviation and na¬
tional defense, Assisi ant Re:-ret ‘U’y of
War 'I cubee Davis m declared here to¬
day.
“The development of commercial
aviation is very important hot only
because of its economical possibilities,
bqt also because it is well nigli inval¬
uable from the military standpoint,"
the young secretary of army aviation
said in an address at the dedication of
Ihe Buffalo air port.
He warned the country that the
army’s five-year aviation program,
providing 1,800 planes and 17,000 per¬
sonnel, could not be carried out “un¬
less and until adequate funds were ap¬
propriated for that purpose, which
means that -the American people can
not afford to sit back feeling that the
task is done."

Paris, Sept. 27 (TP)—Much specula- !
j tion today as to the future relations
i between Premier P'ainlove. Foreign 1
Minister Briand and Dr. Gustave
: Stresemann, Germany’s foreign secre¬
] tary.
I It is said that they recently had a
“brasstacks” discussion near Geneva
, and announced that they had reached
an agreement having for its objective
removal of all possible friction be¬
tween France and Germany.
Premier Painleve, addressing dis¬
abled veterans at St. Germain yester¬
day, said that even though France,
might be willing to meet Germany in ,
bonds of new friendship, she would
never yield one jot on the question of !
Germany being responsible for the !
war.

ilm Newmfiififiw
Washington, Sept. 27.—First frosts
find the congressional campagin
rounding the turn and creeping into
the stretch while the populace yawns
and asks who Tunney is going to fight
next.
Both parties in New York states are
holding their conventions this week.
Democrats will ratify a state ticket
selected by Governor Smith, who has
decided to run again. Republicans
will pick an opponent who is willing
to face almost certain slaughter for
the sake of the advertising and the
future good will. They also will re¬
nominate Senator Wadsworth, who
lias been placed in jeopardy by the
candidacy of F. W. Cristman, the dry
independent Republican.
This practically will complete the
nomination of all senatorial and con¬
gressional candidates, and clear the
path for the final stretch of campaign¬
ing leading up to the election Novem¬
ber 2.
Interest is confined almost entirely
to the professionals. Public apathy
is all the more remarkable because the
senate is divided so that the Demo¬
crats are conceded by all to have an
even chance of gaining control. Coo
lidgo’s prestige faces a mid-term haz¬
ard.
