This recalls slight misunderstand-
ing which Brown says existed between
himself and Mr.. MacRae.
Hes a very fine flyer" explained
Brown, "but we don't mean the same
thing when he says straight flying
l said l would need only straight fly
ing while taking pictures-or any
other time, He said all right. He
says now that we had only straight
flying. If some of that flying was
straight, then a corkscrew is the
shortest distance between two points.
l guess straight flying is straight fly
ing to him, whether it's straight
ahead or straight up and down.
forgot to say that l meant straight
horizontal flying"
Brown says the good Lord laid out
the horizon horizontally, and that it
made him Brown J feel sort of upset
to see the horizon standing up on end.
Brown had a lively time with an
Arcadia flyer named Wyatt, who
took him up to shoot at the formation
in the circus.
Il had Grafex camera" he said,
and l had that stick webbing
around in front of me, which l had
to dodge, and had to keep my feet
off the rudder-bar, and just before
we started Wyatt said to watch
thing like clock-face and not to let
the hand get below 2. He said if it
got below 2 to pump it up again.

below 2, and he said nothing, only the
engine probably would die. | decid-

PASS BILL WILL DRAG IN HOUSE
Little Desire on Part of House Members to Make
 Fight for Measure

Montgomery, February 15.-(Special9 There appears no one in the house of representatives anxious to sponsor the editors pass bill," and Senator McDow- els measure, which was enacted in the senate with little opposition, will not come up on the last day of the first session.
 Where is the bill? That is the ques- ested in editors getting permission to ex- change srace in their newspapers for rail- road asses.
 Perhaps it has been lost" But wheth- CT lost or not there appears to be little desire on the part of house members to make a fight for it's enactment
 Corners legislature of F years ago said to editors: You cannot accept free transportation over railroads in Ala bama.' But ever since there has been agitation in favor of granting this per- mission again. The present legislature so far as the senate was concerned-fa- Vors granting this privilege to editors, but without the approval of the house the me9 sure is worthless.
 The legislature will not convene again until July s, at o'clock. By that time it is believed the editors pass bill'' will be so far under the mass of other inn portant documents that human hands cannot extract it.
 Mir Corners legislature believed that rev spapers were influenced in favor of railroads when their editors accepted free transportation During that time the
