WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.—Kiang Su troops are reported to be preparing for a heavy attack on the Che Kiang forces, Consult Gen. Edwin S. Cunningham canned the state department today from Shanghai. The railroad between Shanghai and Hang Chow has been cut near Kashing and Cunningham further reported that communication between the two cities is interrupted. SHANGHAI, Sept. 23.—Twenty bridges between Kashing and Hang Chow have been blown up to prevent troop movements. The Lung Wha arsenal supplying the Che Kiang forces with munitions is working only part time as a result of an outbreak of labor trouble. All fronts were silent today save for occasional artillery exchanges. Heavy Che Kiang reinforcements are pouring into Shanghai en route to Huang Tu and Liu Ho from the Yishing sector which has been abandoned by Lu Yung Hsi Ang in conformance with his policy to withdraw from the province of Che Kiang. The troops comprise half of the Tenth Division, Lus own followers. The sudden mobilization of the foreign settlement defenders last Thursday was explained today by the mockingly jubilant Che Kiang supporters. On that date Tuchun Chi of Kiang Su notified the consular body: "I will be in Shanghai within 24 hours." It was predicted at Lung Wha, Lu's headquarters, today that internal dissension in Che Kiang will prevent an attack on Shanghai from Hang Chow. SHANGHAI, Sept. 23.—Unexpected difficulties arising from the war situation may prevent the arrival of Maj. Zanni, Argentine round-the-world flyer, in Shanghai. A. Delcarrill, the Argentine representative, announced today he had received a letter from Gen. Luyang Heiang, requesting post-mentions of the fighters. CONSTABLE Howard Cox of Laguna Beach Shot Early Today Forest Wilson, 25, and Joe Prather, $9, were being held in the county jail today in connection with the mysterious shooting at 4 a.m. today at Laguna Beach of Howard Cox, constable, as the culmination of what officers say has been a battle waged by Cox against the illicit liquor vendors of the artist colony. Cox was shot in the fleshy part of the left arm and was being treated today at the county hospital. A few weeks ago a mysterious shot grazed him, he said, and yesterday he found a note tied to the steering wheel of his auto containing this cryptic statement: "I get you tonight, Cox." The note was not signed. Noticing a loiterer in front of the Laguna Beach Life newspaper office, Cox approached, he said. After a pistol battle, the loiterer inflicted a bullet into Cox's left arm and made his escape. The report of the mysterious death attempt on Cox several weeks ago was not given out by authorities. ASK FLIERS TO COME THIS WAY Efforts made by The Plain Dealer today to have the world filers change their course so as to fly over Anaheim proved fruitless. A Plain Dealer representative tailed with Lieut. Lowell H. Smith over the long distance telephone at San Diego and proffered the request. Smith told him that the course had been carefully mapped out already and could not be altered, in spite of the requests from many cities that such action be taken. Even if a new course were mapped out some cities were bound to be neglected. The course extended directly to Long Beach from San Diego. Smith said. Smith declared that he was well-acquainted with Anaheim and Orange-co and would have been glad to fly over the city. The Plain Dealer congratulated Smith for himself and his companions on the wonderful flight. Smith and his fellows left San Diego at 1 o'clock and reached Long Beach at 2. From Long Beach the aviators were to fly over Los Angeles and then to Santa Monica. WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.—Weeks from today the greatest army of American voters ever assembled will march to the polls to cast the largest vote in the nation's history—and a vote which despite its enormity, may still prove indexicate and throw the election of the next president to the house of representatives. The six weeks' period between now and Nov. 4 is conceded by the leaders of all parties to be the "crucial" period of the campaign and plans accordingly are being shaped with this fact in view. The big guns of the administration will start booming along the campaign from this week. Secretary of State Chas. E. Hughes has been elected to lead off in this regard and will inaugurate the Big Republican speech-making in Ohio, home of the late President Harding. The secretary of state is to be followed on the stump by other members of the Coolidge cabinet, who thus far have been sort of held in reserve for this election.

LABOR MEN MEET SANTA BARBARA, Sept. 23.—Committee reports and general business was up the program today for the 25th annual conference of the California State Federation of Labor in session here with nearly 1000 delegates in attendance. Endorsement of the LaFollette-Wheeler ticket was expected by leaders to be the outstanding business of the meeting together with the adoption of a legislative program which will include greater safeguards for the children of the state against exploitation. PAY TELEPHONE COLLECTIONS UP Pay phone collections have pretty nearly doubled in the past six weeks! They are now practically normal. This somewhat surprising statement was made today by E. A Beard, manager of the Anaheim and Fullerton Telephone Exchanges, after making his collections yesterday. HELD FOR DRINKING E. F.

The big guns of the administration will start booming along the campaign front this week. Secretary of State Chas. E. Hughes has been elected to lead off in this regard and will inaugurate the big Republican speech-making in Ohio, home of the late President Harding. The secretary of state is to be followed on the stump by other members of the Coolidge cabinet, who thus far have been sort of held in reserve for the final dash toward November. Mid-October will see most of them swinging into action with appeals for the election of Coolidge and Dawes. Significant of one big Republican push now being organized, and indicative, too, of the dissatisfaction which many Republicans feel over the situation in the west, were persistent reports today that President Coolidge is seriously contemplating leaving Washington for at least "several" speeches in selected spots west of the Alleghenies. The Republican campaign managers are divided upon advisability of this move. Most of them have advised the president it will not be necessary for him to leave the capitol, but Mr. Coolidge is said to be not entirely satisfied with their judgment in the matter and believes he can help the cause along by appearing in person before some mid-western audiences. No final decision has yet been reached, but it was said today to be likely that both Indiana and Missouri will see the president in the next six weeks. Both are considered doubtful states. Republican leaders are plainly somewhat portured over the situation in a number of western states and particularly with reports drifting in to Washington the last few days which give Senator LaFollette six and possibly seven western states. These are Wisconsin, Minnesota, the two Dakotas, Montana, Idaho and possibly Washington. There is in addition Iowa and Nebraska, where the independent candidate is said to have strength and the Republican cause is embarrassed by factional rows. If LaFollette should carry the seven states named, it would mean 50 electoral votes, and should Davis carry the solid south and the border states—the minimum claimed for him by Democratic managers—it would bring the Continued on page six.

CLOVER FIELD, Santa Monica, Sept. 23.—The United States may attempt a flight around the world in an effort to establish a speed record, but Lleut. Lowell H.

With plaudits of the nation and San Diego's welcome ringing in their cars, the three American round-the-world Douglas cruisers hopped-off from here at 1:07 p.m. today for Clover Field, Santa Monica, the original point from where they started last March 17 to fly around the earth. Lieut. Lowell Smith, flight commander, piloting the "Chicago," was first of the trio to take off. He raced down the fairway to a speed of approximately 50 miles an hour for 300 yards and after two short "skips" leaped into the air. As soon as Lieut. Smith's landing gear was seen to leave the earth, Lieuts. Eric Nelson, in the "New Orleans," and Leigh Wade in the "Boston II," sped away beside the tracks laid down by Lieut. Smith and joined him. Once is the air, the planes massed together in a "V" formation, circled over the island and San Diego while thousands from below shouted and waved a fond farewell to them. Then the filers turned their planes northward and were off for Santa Monica. The trio of planes taxied down the field for the first time promptly at I o'clock, but Lieut. Nelson's motor gave a bit of trouble and they were delayed five minutes on this account. Ten other planes took the air immediately thereafter to escort the world filers to Santa Monica. Mr. and Mrs. Jaasper Smith, parents of Lieut. Smith, and Mrs. Roberta Chase Harding, mother of Lieut. John Harding, mechanic for Lieut. Nelson, hurried back to Los Angeles this morning that they might be at Clover Field this afternoon to greet their sons again when they arrive there.
