6 Year Intelligence
Test Shows Its Value
the governor said that he would re
quire a legal opinion on his rights in
the matter.
Governor Johnston claims the con-
stitution declaring that the governor
shall submit properly certified peti-
tions to a vote at the next general
election gives him the right to Judge
the sufficiency of the petition.
Russell, author and circulator of
the bill, denies this, stating that it
is mandatory upon the governor to
put the bill to a vote after the secre-
tary of state has certified it to the
governor.
Governor Johnston charged in
speaking before the association Mon-
day afternoon that the tax bill was
being used as a “stalk horse" to help
legislative insurgents initiate a bill
giving (he legislature the right to con.
vene itself upon the petition of the
members.

Japan’s Pacific Hon
May Be Postponed
TOKIO, Mar. 13.—(IP)—There Is a
possibility that Japan’s proposed non-
stop airplane flight effort across the
Pacific Ocean, scheduled to start this
spring, may have to be postponed un-
til 1929, according to well Informed
aviation enthusiasts In Toklo.
The Imperial Aviation Society,
however, has denied the reports while
the Aviation Bureau of the Nuvy has
said U seems unlikely the flight will
have to be delayed.
The first of the two machines be-
ing built for the flight, however, has
not yet been completed nnd there are
persistent reports that defects have
been found In its design. It was
scheduled to have been delivered the
Aviation Society In February.
Meantime the four flyers selected
are continuing their (mining.
There is a strong feeling among
the supporters of the flight that If
the Japanese airmen do not make
their efforT"this spring It will be too
late, as the Japanese feel an Amer-
ican flyer Ih almost certain to span
the Pacific without popping sometime
during 1928.
If preparations can be completed
—and at this moment there seems
considerable doubt—the Japanese
flight may get under way duriug
April.
