each year, clocks all over the coun-
try which affect any operations Of
the federal government or railroads.

Der, Of each year, they are to be re-
tarded one hour. All business relat-
ing In any way to the federal govern
ment will be conducted on the time

Inasmuch as commercial and labor

Many American BattIeplanes To
Be In France For Protection
Of Troops BY That Time.
DELAY NO so SERIOUS

hind With Every Prospect That
Some of the Delay viii
Be Made Up.

Washington, March 18.--In suffi-
Gent quantity to insure adequate pro-
lection of the sectors then held by
American troops, American4built bat

This statement rests on the highest
authority and was made with full reg
ognition OF all failures and disap-
pOintmepts that have hampered the
development OF the air program.

House military committee, as they
had been disclosed to the Senate com.
mittee.
Means Teamwork, says Kahn.
The comment of Representative
Kahn Of California, ranking Republi-
can member of the House committee,
expressed the sentiment OF the House
members on the new policy. He said
It means team work by the whole
government ON the enormous prob
1ems that face 1t.
The figures revealed to the commit
tee; the immediate current demands
OF the war program, and the
progress being made In meeting them.
Mr.. Kahn said. made It clear that
the country was still unawake to tho
enormity' Of it, undertaking. He pre-
dicted that great results could be
looked for from now on II the week.
ly conferences with the legislative
committees are continued.
Delay Not Serious.
It was disclosed to the committee
members that the aviation program

for. Figures estimating that defici-
ency in percentages that have been
quoted, however, were shown to be
wrong. No such method Of calcula-
ton has been evolved.
The actual delay can be figured on
W In point Of time. The airplane
production program In the United
States Is Substantially so days be-
hind what had been hoped for by the
most sanguine officials. The foreign
contracts. which were to have pro-
