 Captain Clark was not advised that war had been declared against Spain until his arrival at Rio Jan eiro, April 30.

BERLIN.-Police-Presiden Ern- st's prohibition of public dancing in Berlin has been welcomed by the great mass of citizens. whose indignation had been aroused not only by the great number of balls held nightly, but also by their char acter. One such ball. held recently, was a beauty competition. Tho dance fever has been raging in Berlin since the wartime prohibit ton against public dances was withdrawn.

 sion that both military and civilian experts overestimated the country's capabilities in setting out in 1912 TO accomplish the impossible task" of producing 22,000 airplanes in F months is made in the official his tory of the governments efforts to build up the industry, just made public by the war department. Realization of this error resulted almost immediately in the placing of contracts in France for 5,s75 planes of the Spad, Nieuport and Bregeut types.
 The report shows that by May 23, 1918, American factories had delivered 5,270 planes, or 24 per cent Of the ambitious program, while the French had delivered 31 per cent of the number promised on that date. Up to November II, total of 11,364 airplanes had been produced in America, but these were largely training ma chimes, fighting planes completed during the war period totalling only 3,32S.
 Broadly stated" the history says, ''the United States produced for her army alone in her second year of manufacture, as many airplanes as England produced for her army and navy in her. third year.
 Organization of the manufactur ing industry is declared to have been the smallest of the air serv- ices problems, an alarming short age of cloth and varnish. or dope for the wings developing al the yer: start Lack of an adequate supply of linen was overcome quickly through the assistance of the United States bureau Of standards, which evolved 2 special cotton fabric with g tensile strength of 90 pounds to the square inch. Production of this material was soon at the rate of 100000 yards per month.
 Cotton proved to be not only an admirable substitute for linen, but even 3 better fabric than the original cloth" the report says. ''No matter how abundant the sup ply of flax may be, ii is unlikely that linen will ever again be used in large quantities for airplane wings"
 Search for varnish to protect airplane wings resulted in the es- tablishment of 10 large chemical plants to produce acetone, the prin- cipal ingredient.
 Had the war continued" says the history, these new plants would have taken care of all American and Allied military needs, allowing the production of private plants to go exclusively 10 fill commercial needs"
 Development of aircraft was so rapid that frequent changes in models and designs were before the service experts for consideration. At the time of the armistice, the whole production machinery hal been, or was about to be. turned over to putting out new De Hav.- land, known as 9-A; the Lepere, a two-seater built around the Liberty engine, and the great Handley-Page machine for bombing work. Experi- ments also were under way with the Italian Caproni, to be driven by three Liberty engines.
 But American invention was able to bring out a strictly American bombing plane that promised to supersede all other types in exist ence," says the report. This was the Martin plane which, with a wing spread of 75 feet, attained a speed of 11S miles an hour against 100 for the Handley-Page and Caproni. Where the foreigners required 46 minutes to climb 15,000 feet, the Martin craft took 30 minutes.

missioner followed his statement
that facts gathered during the com
missions investigation Of the meat
packing industry had been turned
over TO the department OF justice
and that he had no doubt that pro-
ceedings under the antitrust law
would result.
Mr. Murdoch expressed fear that
the legislative branch OF the govern

vigorously with the packers. His
statement that the packers were well
aware where there would be va
cancies on senate and house commit

Commissioner Murdoch strongly
urged enactment Of legislation be-
