Duke Of York Spends Day With Youngsters.

The Duke of York has just completed a visit to his camp at New Romney, on the coast of Kent, where, as in the past few Mr. Coolidge did not consult years, the boys from Eton, his friends and advisers.

Mr. Coolidge from the presidential There are 400 boys this year at race, but the majority of the newspapers are of the opinion that the pronouncement is a care- fully-calculated attempt to side- track his Republican' rivals and lay the ghost of a third term tradition.

It is argued that Mr. Coolidge will be in a strong position if he

is compelled by the general wish; of the country to accept nomina- tion for a third term against his apparent wish and intention.

Republicans in New York State, with a few exceptions, were thun- derstruck at the pronouncement. Though some are in the closest touch with the President, none had the slightest-inkling that the bombshell was to be thrown into} the political arena.

Ex-Senator N. M. Butler, chair- man of the Republican National | Committee; who is now in New York, said: "I am not convinced The will not run if nominated."

Mr. Charles Hilles, vice-chair- man of the Committee, said: "I think he intends this to be final."

The pilot, as on the two previous: and the navigator was Flying attempts, was Lieutenant Carri

Hence Vienna's telegram to- day announcing a crash in the Danube to a British military machine, with two officers who left England at noon yesterday for India, was most surprising.“

The telegram added that one officer was severely and the other slightly injured, and both were conveyed to Ashach near Linz.

The crash is attributed to over- heating of the engine. The ma chine lies in the Danube badly damaged.

Enquiry at the Air Ministry confirmed the news of the start of Carr, this time accompanied by Flying Officer E. C. Dearth. They left Cranwell Aerodrome yesterday afternoon in a Hawker- Horsley machine-Reuter.
