AIR TRAFFIC TOBE FIRST
 REGULATED

LONDON, Jan. II (by Associated Press There will be no passenger or commercial airplane service from England to any other country until complete plans are formulated for reg ulating and controlling air traffic, says an official of the British air ministry. That will be a task, he said, fraught with enormous difficulties.
 "To begin with he pointed out, there are no laws of the air at pres ent. and to bring the air into the com mercial sphere without laws would produce chaos. There would be i'm mediate trouble with the customs au- thorities of all nations, Adequate legislation will have to be framed to prevent contraband merchandise be- ing carried through the air from one country to another.
 There will have to be a system Of air customs. and that in itself pre- sents many problems. Then again, the authorized carrying of letteres would bring in the postal authorities.
 "To police the air presents other diff faculties. Try to imagine an offender scudding away from an air policeman. whose machine may be the slower of the two, and hiding behind a cloud until everything is clear.
 Its a new world, and we've got to make proper arrangements for it"
 At present navigation of aircraft of every description in the United King dom and the coasts and territorial waters adjoining is prohibited by law. with the exception of naval and mill tary machines, or airplanes operating within three miles of d recognized aerodrome. That law, the official said, is likely to stand until the air min. istry can map out a comprehensive scheme of air legislation.

He even wrote, as late as 1916. vio- lently anti-war play.
 Born at Vienna in 1880, Biro re ceived his early education in a small Hungarian village. Later he studied law in Budapest. but soon decided to enter the field of journalism. where of sketches and short stories He is the writer of q number of plays which have been produced in the United States. Two plays of one-act cycle called The Home Circle" were re- gently translated into English and published in the Drama Magazine of Washington, together with brief bio graphical note by Charles Recht.
 Biro is a socialist. though up to the present he has held no political of flee. His popularity as writer will undoubtedly count in his favor as a public official, though of course 1t is impossible to determine the strength of his following

$4,000 Year Offer Refused

Alvin C. York, the Hun-killing Ten

he didn't go to Camp Gordon to receive
his discharge, but instead obeyed or
ders and went to Ft. Ogdethorpe. on
the route to his home state. His
arrival at Ft. Oglethorpe followed a
period of kaleidoscope events for him
in New York of which he was the
central figure during his short stap
there he received an offer of Sj2 0U0 d
year for his services, which was de-
clined for him by members of the
Tennessee society, who considered
him worth as much as Charlie Chap

The New York World gives an in
teresting account of Yorks reception
in New York as follows:
From $50 a month as doughboy
to $4,000 a day! That's the ambitious
program fixed for Sergeant Alvin C.
York by the friends who have shown
him New York city from the qAiet
solemnity of Grants tomb to the noisy
subterranean arteries of Mr.. Shonts'
underground railway.

worth more than Charlie Chaplin.
