Breach WidenS
in Rivalry of
Aviation Clubs

The breach which has existed be
tween the Aero Club Of America and
the American Flying Club since the
formation of the latter last spring has
been broadened At time when persons
interested in the development Of aero"
nautics in this country had hoped they
would amalgamate and form the most
powerful organization Of the kind in
the world
Aroused by a cable message which
Cortlandt Field Bishop, the first elected
president of the Aero Club and until
two years ago prominent member,
sent yesterday to the executive COM
mittee of the International Aeronautic
Federation in Paris. urging that the
American Flying Club be designated
as the official representative In the
United States instead of the Aero Club.
the latter issued a statement declaring
in effect that the caro- Club is not
only the sole representative I'm the
I lited States of the international Aero
nautic Federation. but one Of the big
four" having, on account Of its ex-
tensive activities, four votes in the fed
Grafton.
1t was understood from Mr.. Bishops
cable message that the executive COM
mittee of the international Aeronautic
tueTdtion VIII uictt III bOody'
and that the question of the American
representation In the organization will
be discussed.
In reply the Aero Club statement de-
clares that the meeting today is merely
that Of a committee appointed at the
annual meeing in October TO consider
the rules and regulations OF the Inter-
national contests to be held this year.
No new business, IL was stated. is per-
missible at the meeting.
Mr.. Bishop went to Paris last autumn
for the purpose of switching the affilia-
tion Of the International Aeronautic
Federation from the Aero Club to the
American Flying Club. His cable mes
sage Of yesterday was supplemental to
the arguments presented in person. At
the time Mr.. Bishop was in France,
Augustus Post, secretary Of the Aero
Club, also was there looking after the
interests of his organization. They
returned to the United states recently
aboard the same steamship.
No statement was obtainablc from
the American Flying Club last night.

Brutality Charges
"Framed," Detzer
Says; Trial Near End

In cross-examination before n court mar
tisl on Governors Island Captain Karl w.
Detzer, on trial on charges of brutality TO
soldiers in his custody at lie Mans, France,
yesterday expressed the opinion that he
had been framed up" lie was answering
questions by Major William i. Kelly,
Judge advocate.
"Do you believe you were framed up?'
asked Major Kelly.
Absolutely yes" replied Captain Deter.
WAS 1t the Judge Advocates Depart
ment?" asked Major Kelly.
II will make no statement TO esifs court
which I cannot prove" replied Captain
Detzer.
"was It Captain John NJ. Weir. assistant
Judge advocate?"
II cannot give any evidence at this
time" answered the captain.
Major Kelly showed that the defence had
made an error in the date OF a telegram
introduced in behalf OF Captain Detzer on
Friday. Tho defence sought TO prove by
this telegram that Captain Dctzor was in
Tours, France. on July Is and H. 1919, the
dates which Murray Phillips, OF Brooklyn.
testified ms having been the approximate
time when he was assaulted by Captain
Deter and robbed of 5,1oof. by Sergeant
". s. Madden, OF Captain Detzer's staff.
Phillips said that captain Detzer witnessed
the robbery and got half of the money.
Major Kelly showed that the telegram in
troduced by the defence to prove an albi
was dated July 70, 1919.
Major keily's cross-exsminstion was vt
times so vigorous that members OF the
court martial admonishod him 10 be more
decorous." The court room was cleared
frequently while the members of the court
discussed objections raised TO the dues-
tlons.
Captain Detzer denied with emphasis
that he had ever struck prisoners or that
he had ever seen his subordinates strike
them. Asked by Major Kelly who gave
him instructions 20 force prisoners In his
custody 10 talk whether they wanted 10 or
not, the captain answered that he could
not remember.
The case viii be continued today. when
the cross-examinatiop Of Captain petzer
VIII be ended.

Strike Called to
Renew Strife in
Building Trades

The first step in the renewed fight be-
tween the worlkmen and some of the en-
ployers in the building trades in New York
city was taken yesterday. when a strike
was called among all the workmen on
the new eighteen-story annex of the
Metropolitan Life Insurance building al
Madison avenue and Twenty-fourth street,
except tho iron workers, who are nom
union men.
This is the first Of the two strikes which
Robert p. Brindell. president of Che Build
ing Trades Council, announced saturday
night would be called in the near future in
the contest being waged by the VIC .kmen,
aided by the Building Trades Employers
Association except the Iron League Erec-
tors Association. The issue is the open
shop.
Mr.. Brindell would not say last nigh;
what other work on which non-union iron
erectors are at work will be interfered
with. He said there were not more than
SIX buildings i'm course of construction in
New York city on which non-union erec-
tors are employed. 1t was understood
however, that all of them would be stopped
II necessary.
George A. Fuller Company is the gen.
eral contractor OF the new Metropolitan
Life annex, and Levering e Garrigues Co
the iron contractors. At the offices OF
the former, at No. 175 Fifth avenue. II
was said that about $50 men are involved
by the waikout. OF these perhaps twenty
are iron erectors.
No statement was forthcoming from
Walter Drew. attorney for the Iron League
Erectors' Association. The situation cre-
ated by the withdrawal OF the workmen
on the new building was said TO be under
the guidance of the Industrial Committee
Of the association, composed OF five men.
The understanding last night was that
the non-union iron erectors would pro-
ceed with their work until they reach q
point in the construction OF the building
at which the law provides that other work
must begin. and there the building will
stop until the differences between tho
men and the employers have been ad'

Mr.. Harris says the potato situation
is critical all along the Pacific coast
and that Immediate relief from the
soaring prices is remote. One buyer.
Mr.. Harris says, visited the Willamette
valley following the freeze last Jam
uary and bought approximately 150,-
600 sacks of potatoes. These he ship
ped to California and placed them in
storage awaiting higher prices. Many
of these potatoes had been touched by
frost. which caused a loss of fully one
half of the lot
Adding. to the seriousness of the
situation. according to Marion county
farmers. is the fact that the potato
crop acreage for this year will not be
as large as last, due to the inclination
on the part of growers to plant their
tracts to loganberries and other small
fruits and berries.

 He was found lying on his left side with the blade of an axe buried solid in his head. having entered the right side of the head to a point where ii cut off the top of his right ear. The heel of the blade entered first, lead ing to the belief that the murdered man was laying on his back, or that the murderer was crouched in a low position near the edge of the bed and delivered the blow while in that po- sition.
 There was no visible evidence of a struggle. The bed occupied one cor. ner of the room. the head of the bed being against one wall and one side against another wall. When the bod, was found it was lying with the fac' of tho dead man toward the. front O the bed.
