DESTROY NAVY
Gen. Mitchell Warns House
Committee U. S. Is Open
to Air Attack.
ASKS DIRIGIBLE FORCE

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-"England
could wipe out the American Navy with
its air force" Brig Gen William Mitch
ell, assistant chief of the Army Air Serv-
ice, today told the House Naval Affairs
Committee.
England is going stronger on her de
velopment Of aircraft" he said. I'VE
can't learn anything about her construc-
ton Of airships, but we know she is
spending much money and making great
strides in aircraft development. Our
aircraft strength must be superior or
We will be shot out of the water"
The United States would be unable to
prevent an aerial attack on this country
by England, he said.
Mitchell advocated construction of
plane carrying ships so that every fleet
will control the afr wherever it goes.
A force Of dirigibles to operate at alti
tudes of about six miles is one Of the out
standing features of the aviation program
which Army air officials are now urging
upon Congress to substitute for con
tinued huge expenditures for battleships,
Brig. Gen. William Mitchell Of the Army
Air Service said.
The purchase Of the second largest
semi rigid airship IN the world, the
Roma, from Italy. was largely for the
purpose Of making experiments at alti-
tUdes Of about 10000 feet. Previously
these heights have been reached by air
planes only in few flights, made in spe-
cial planes in attempts to set new rec
ords.
"Airships capable Of flying at such alti-
tudes must he equipped with electrical
devices for heating the engines" said
Mitchell. Crews can be protected with
electrically heated garments and It is not
difficult to arrange instruments for sup
plying them with oxygen in the rarihed
atmosphere.
along this line at the present time and
no debut some of them will be made on
the Roma"

SAYS u. S. OIL
EMBARGO WILL
LOSE MARKET
British Producer Discusses
Question Raised by MesOpO-
tamia Deal.
FRIENDLY END IS SEEN

LONDON, Feb. 5.-An embargo against
expectation Of American oil to Great
Britain probably would mean permanent
loss of that market to American pro-
ducers, Sir Charles Greenway, chairman
Of the Anglo-Persian OH Company de-
clared today.
at the same time Greenway expressed
the belief that "the oil problems" be-
tween the two countries would be
smicably settled"
The article was prepared with special
reference to the MesOpOtamian oil con-
troyersy which has become one of the
most important phases in the struggle
between American and British interests
for petroleum supremacy. The American
Government protested against the terms
Of the British mandate over MeSopOtamia,
maintaining that the "open door prin-
ciple must be upheld there and intimat-
ing that an American oil embargo might
be employed if necessary.
The head Of the Anglo-Persian Oil
Company, which is controlled by the
British government, was asked to present
the British viewpoint.
BY SIR CHARLES GREENWAY.
LONDON, Feb. 81 am surprised and
regret that what IS purely a business
matter should have been brought into
the domain OF political agitation.
There is no closed door in Mesopo-
tamia. There never has been. All we
ask is that the concessions acquired
legally and in good faith from the Turk
fish Government should be respected just
as the Standard Oil Company expects
the same sort of recognition for similar
concessions It presumably has obtained
from the Turks in Palestine.
zone unfortunate aspect Of the politi-
cal agitation over Mesopotamia has been
an exaggerated idea Of the potentialities
Of the oil fields. There is oil In AIeso-
potamia, but it is not a petroleum Edo
RADIO, inasmuch as the great bulk Of the
oil hearing fields Of the region lie on
the Persian side Of the frontier.
CITES EFFECT
OF EMBARGO.
II feel sure that responsible American
opinion will not countenance application
Of an oil embargo against a friendly
nation. For one thing it would be bad
business TO cut OF one Of the best mar
kets for American oil products. especially
now that there is a marked over prOduc-
ton in the United States. Besides one
of the chief effects OF such a measure
would be to force England, in self
defense, to make every effort to make
herself independent of American oil,
which probably would mean a perma-
nent loss Of this market to American
producers.
But I cannot believe an embargo ever
would be enforced. There is no reason
why all our oil problems should not be
amlcably settled. Important as they are,
they cannot be allowed to disturb the
relations Of two great nations whose
friendship means SO much to the whole
world"

Stock Statesmen Need
Only State License

Stock and securities statesmen in In
diana who have been licensed by the In
diana securities commission are not re-
quired to obtain licenses from munich
pahties and dare not subject to prosecu-
ton by cities, when they operate with
out a city license, according to an orin-
ion given today by Ulysses S. Lesh, at
tOrney general.
The opinion was addressed to Maurice
l. MendenhalI, director Of the com
mission, and was In reference to a case
that has occurred in ShelbyviIle. 1t is
understood that a salesman, licensed by
the State commission, had been arrested
for selling stock without first obtaining
a license to do so from the city. The
opinion Of the attorney general is that
the State license takes precedence over
any municipal license and that any
prosecution started against the salesman
is void.

LAFAYETTE COACH
STILL UNDECIDED
Has Not Settled Question Of
Whether SeashoItz or Elliott
Will Start
MASS-MEETlNG T0NlGH T

Easton, Pa, Nov. 4.-Dr. "Jock"
Sutherland. coach of Lafayette College
team, is still undecided as to whether
he will start "Dutch' Scasholtz or
'Doc" Elliott at fullback tomorrow
when Lafayette meets Penn in the an
nunl game at Philadelphia.
Ever since Elliott broke into the la
fayctte linc-up because Of Seasholtz' :
injury during tho Buckncl game, the
battle for the fullbnrk position has been
very keen. Both have proved to be-
line smashcrs of the highest type.
The first mass meeting and smoker of
the year will be held this evening in
Braincrd Hall. The speakers will be
Coach Sutherland. Captain T.ehecka,
Physical Director Harold, Arson Bruce
and Prof. Francis A. March.
The last hard practice was held yes
terday. Though Coach Sutherland dis
pensed with Scrimmagc, the men were
kept on their toes the entire afternoon.

Dutch Schwab, who was detained by
late classes. Tho varsity exhibited
more life and fight than in any workout

tlashy halfbaCk.
Captain Joe Lehccka was also in uni
form. Ilr took light workout IN
passing the ball and limb"ring up his
ankle. lchccka also followed the var
sity through most Of the signal drill.
The possibility Of the Maroon and
White captain entering the Penn game
is very slim, though he will be in uni
form.
