BALLOON CRASH
STRATOSTAT'S CREW KILLED IN FALL
Moscow, Feb. 2. The unusual spoed of their descent caused the deaths of the three Russinn balloonieta who, carly this week, establlahod a new record for altitudo fliers.
The Commission Investigating the disaster which overtook the balloon Stratostat has determined that the speed of the descent ruptured the ropework of the balloon.
The Commission states that the ultimate height ranched by the balloonista was 22,000 meters, at 12.33 p.m. The reason for the accident was "the excessive and increasing speed of the descent which started at 12.45 p.m. and became alarming at 4.10 p.m, at a height of 12,000 moters. The speed of the dropping balloon enused the rupture of the rope. work and the gondola struck the ground at 4.23 p.m."
They fell 12,000 metara.in ap- proximately 13 minutes, according to calculations and were killed by the force of their landing, ap- parently.
"The
the last entry in balloonists' log." according to the official report, "wits made at 4.10 p.m. Previous entries implied that the crew was alright."
From that time onward, it seems, the balloon dropped at a speed of about a mile a minute.-- United Press.

Attack Coughs
And Colds Two
Ways at Once
Modern Vapour" Ointment Acts like a Poultice and a Vapour-Lamp Combined. Most cold-troubles are caused by germs that are breathed in. The quickest way to attack them is by medicated vapours
that can also be breathed in.
Nowadays, theno vapours can bo easily obtained at home from Vicks VapoRub.Rubbed on the throat and chest at night, it acts in two ways: direct through the skin like a poultica and direct to the air-passages by its medicated vapours, released by the body-heat.
Cold-troubica usually yield by morning to this direct treatment: It is especially good for children because there is no dosing to upset delicate little stomachs,
