Second Ocean Hop Under Way Today
The Bellanca monoplane Columbia, with Chamberlin and Levine aboard, began a daylight flight from Nova Scotia toward Europe.

Use Utility Bills To Gather Fund
In Paris on June 4 A P report says Kansas public utility leaders raised about 6800 to defeat the holding company bill in 1924. W W Austin of Cottonwood Falls, treasurer of the Kansas bureau of public information, testified no legislator was paid. He cited Pratt and Kansas City capital interest in the effort and noted the bill would limit non Kansas ownership of utility stock. He attended a Kansas utility officers conference where the bill’s aim to hurt Empire interests was discussed. Other testimony touched on lobbied insurance and telegrams paid with public funds related to tax and insurance issues during the legislature.
