Chanler Suit Technical
Artists Attorney Says Client Is

The law firm of Zabriskie, Sage, Kerr

it was decided by Justice Mullan on
Wednesday that the artist was to CON
tinue the payment of $4,000 year for
the support of his daughter, Miss
Dorothy Chanler, issued a statement
yesterday with view to correcting any
impression that Mr. Chanler had re-
fused or was unwilling to support his
daughter.
"The suit was a friendly action"
say the. lawyers, "and the decision was
highly technical one involving the
question under the language of the
separation agreement with Mr.. Chan
ler's former wife, whether Mr. Chanler
was obliged to pay Mrs. Chanler indef-
nitely the amount stipulated for his
daughters support after she had be-
come of age. The relations between
Mr.. Chanler and his daughters are and
always have ben most friendly Both
are now and have for some time been
living with him and Mr.. Chanler is
providing for them much more gener-
ously than the agreement calls for"

Mr.. Hooper declared that if the rail

Reviewing the entire railroad situa-
tion, the Labor Board commissioner
said it would be "blind waste of

Then there was no need of restrictive
Legislation, but that to-day social and

The railroad executive OF to-day. he
said, must have business brains and

Public opinion, Mr.. Hooper said, had
decreed that as a matter Of self-pres-
ervation the railroads should be closely
regulated, and would never subject
itself to the risk of having govern

1t was bad enough to keep the aviation
as part of the War Office.
Before departing for his Eastern trip
Mr.. Churchill appeared in the House OF
Commons, where he rather deprecated
the Importance of civil aviation. al
though he complained Of shortage OF
money. He is severely criticised by
Gen. Seely. former Air Minister. but the
London Times remarks ITO Churchill
aviation is still branch OF the arts Of
war and politics. while to Gen. Seeiy It Is
a branch Of commerce and industry"
Mr.. Churchill argued that aviation
represented the same problem as naval
supremacy--if they prepared here they
would prepare abroad. and then the
people will have to pour out money like
water
The single advantageous point recog-
nized with Mr.. Churchill as Colonial
and Air Minister is the fact that the
British have air service ambitions in
the Near East. Mr.. Churchill promised
that reductions In military expenditure
would follow from the right use OF air
power. which Is taken to indicate a
broader application Of the air service in
Egypt and Mesopotamia.
This may mean the framing of an
imperial air policy which the public
recognizes as the only justifable
ground for joining the two. However
widespread were the number OF COM
plants heard in America over the laxity
of air preparations two years ago. that
is nothing compared to the outburst
here over the general decline of the
activity which may be taken as a
prophecy OF something in tho nature of

Berlin. March S.
One gang Of Prussian burglars have
found 1t profitable to disguise them
selves as policemen. Dressed in such a
manner they went during the noon hour
to the house Of a money lender named
Lande. in Liebau. Lande being out they
flashed a bogus search warrant on Mrs.
Lande and began to search for all tho
money they could find. They did not
touch any trinkets or Jewelry. but found
Landes store Of notes. which amounted
to about half million marks.
After they had taken these they tied
the terrified Frau Lande to a bed post
and did the same to her four children.
Presently friends OF the family began to
call and each one was promptly tied up
and relieved Of what money he or she
had. When Lande got back he found
more than twenty OF his friends, all
bound and gagged, in his house. but be-
fore he could cry out he. too. was seized
and bound. Then the burglars left, and
before one of their victims could get
loose the men were miles from the place.

Young clerks here now are able

French aviation construction is all
being directed toward commercial
aims. but Germany's goal is the pro-
duction OF an enormous quantity of
flying machines that viii be available
for either military or commercial pur-
poses, wherein lies the danger to the
future safety of Europe, declared Gen.
Duval. one time director OF French
aeronautical affairs. As a matter of
fact, he says. France already is rele-
gated to fourth or fifth position in the
list OF military aviation progress. and
It now seems only question Of time
until the United States outdistances
her in both military and civilian fly
Ing. despite the fact that the French
Aviation Reserve was larger last year
than that Of any other Power in the
war and commercial lines were al
ready inaugurated which covered all
Europe.
Germany appreciated the benefits
of Collective production and her ex-
perimentation work in aero-dynamic
laboratories is exceeding that Of all
other nations" Gen. Duavl said. Next
