and point out what they believe to be
defects in the plan. is the opinion Of
Mr. Bonynge, a member of the com
mission. Nj. Bonynge's address was
on Banking and Currency Reform.
He spoke in part as follows:

No type of aeroplane is more IA

held in higher regard by the expert
In AVIATION than IS the Curtiss biz
plane. which IS to be used IN daily
flights at the Clarksburg Fair Sep
TENDER 1920, by Charles q. Ham
ilfon, the noted aviator BY untir-
ing experimentation. Mr.. Curtiss has
developed his aeropIane for the
most practical purposes; the ma
chimes he has sold to the United
States government for military use
being the most ehicient and safest
OF modern flying machines. Tbs
machine is the most perfect develop
ment of the general type known as
eebiplane' since there are tNzo-sets
OF wings. or surfaces, one being di-
rectIy above the other This type
OF machine Is most favored by
Americans. as 1t not only permits a
greater spread of lifting surface for
a given width of plane, than in the
monoplane. or single wing type, but
also because II is much stronger
than other machines of the same
weight as it permits OF a system OF
bridge trusting. In the Curtiss ma
chine this feature is especially pro
nounced, owing to the greater safe
ty made possible by the rigid planes
as compared with the weaknesses OF
the varying plane systems.
Because of its graceful Ines as
vel as because of the beauty OF its
finish. the first high-powered Curtiss
machine-the Rheims International
hyer-won the plaudits and admira-
ton of all nationa1ities, even the
French being loud in their praise
despite their well known regard for
the monoplane.

The uprights OF the central section

An added feature Of strength is
found in the double trusting Of the

URGES TARIFF ON
MEAT De LIT TED
Argentine Republic Would Send
Surplus Supply Here, CauS-
ing Big Cost Reduction.

NIAGARA FALLS, Aug. Am at
tack upon the meat tariff was made
by Milo Westbrooke. chairman Of the
legislative committee, In his report be-
fore the International Stewards assoCi-
alton here. Westbrooke concluded his
remarks with the statement that with
the tariff off meats round steak will go
to ten cents a pound and other cuts will
be proportionately cheap"
BY a vote of the convention, the leg
islative committee was instructed to
start vigorous campaign TO have a
Federal law passed that will admit
meats to the United States free Of duty.
According 10 the year book Of the
department Of agriculture said the
speaker. the number Of mich cows
in this country has not increased dur
ing the past five years. As the mich
COW is the source Of the supply Of beef,
we can not look for any immediate in
crease In the domestic supply. We,
therefore, must continue to pay ex-
orbitant prices for meat or turn to the
foreign markets for a supply adequate
TO meet the growing demands.
The finest Of grass is grown in great
abundance in the Argentine Republic"
continued the speaker. This. with per-
feet climatic conditions, makes the Ar
gentine an ideal place 10 raise cattle
and sheep. for they Craze out In the
open S85 days in the year. Considering
the fact that only seven per cent of the
acreage Of the Argentine Republic Is
under cultivation and that their ex-
ports Of meats have increased 500 per
cent during the past ten years, we need
not worry about an ample supply of
meat II our legislators will amend the
laws by removing the tariff on II and
thereby open the doors for the Argen-
tine Republic to dispose OF their rapid
ly increasing surplus"

Chief Beavers Fears
The Speeding Law.

Chief j. L. Beavers, head OF that
illustrious uniformed body sometimes
called "Atlanta's finest" has bought
himself an automobile.
Before buying he announced to his
friends that he was not suddenly be
coming a plutocrat. He still was a
plain, unvarnished citizen, but lived in
West End, which was considerable dis
tance-such a distance, in fact as
could not be achieved quickly by any
thing less than a motor car. Hence the
purchase.
AS is generally the case. new posses
sion has brought new and troublous
anxieties to the chief. BY tempera-
ment and constitution he is not a slow
one. Whenever he starts anywhere he
likes to get there as quickly as possible.
Therefore. his first impulse, when he
laid his hand to the helm of his new
machine, was to open EN- up" Before
said impulse had a chance to register
itself into a definite resolve, however,
the chief remembered about the speed
laws, and desisted
