President Seeks Views of Admi-
raj OH Progress of Aviation
Under Proposed Legislation

From The Tribunc's Warrington Buroau
WASHINGTON, Dec, 4.-Presidcnt
Harding discussed aviation in all it's
phases to-day with Rear Admiral Mof-
fatt, Director Of Naval Aviatiou. The
Executive inquired particularly con-
corning commercial aviation aud it's
prospects for development under the
Department of Commerce.
The President referred to the pro-
posed legislation in his recent message
to Congress. He has felt ever since
the war that aviation to be greatly
developed must be taken from the con-
troll of the army and navy. The matter
of licensing flyers and pilots will be
one Of the important features Of the
proposed laws. Under existing flying
regulations any one may apply to semi
public aeronautical societies for q
license. The Department of Commerce
will conduct examinations and grant
ell licenses to pilots provided the
proposed legislation passes
The great majority of airplanes be-
ing constructed in this country to-day
are built according to military or naval
specifications, Admiral Moffett told the
President. Commercial aviation calls
for an entirely different plane, and the
Administration hopes that once an
aviation department is established
there will be Il marked increase in the
types of commercial planes.

That the South Manchuria and East.

Conference Elevator Cracks
Under Its Unexpected Strain
Lift freaks Up and Down Faithfully, Even if DELHI

Forget That Stairs Are More Than Ornamental

Frcm The Tytbunc's wasaswrtsw Rureuu
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE State
Departments official elevator Is no
more. Ever since the conference began
1t has been seriously ailing, showing
symptoms Of old age and overstrain.
In the days before November corre-
spondents were relatively few and
comparatively energetic. They dropped
in one by one, mounted the stairs in
leisurely manner or waited five OF
ten minutes for the elevator. The con-
ference, however, brought to Washing
ton many correspondents. novclists,
historians and essayists accustomed to
prompt elevator service, many Of them
being accustomed to the comfort that
comes with a generous expense ac-
count.
found the State Department elevator
essential to ascend to the conference
room. and would accordingly wait i'm
patiently for it daily. AS it habitually
took ten minutes to make four flights,
with an additional four minutes at
the fourth floor for the colored eleva-
tor woman to discuss the "til-lims''
with her friend stationed there. the
crowds would gather and gather, and
then fight their way into the Gift
The more that entered it the slower it
rose, until one day, when two Of the
particularly weighty correspondents
boarded it together, it balked. One of

stairs. He made the second door be-
fore the lift.
To-day, as one by one the leisure
class members appeared at the eleva-
tor entrance, they found it permanent
ly collapsed. its cables broken, and NO
sign of possible recovery. Sadly they
climbed the stairs and arrived at the
Secretary's Office quite breathless with
unaccustomed exertion.
Evidently the authorities of the City
of Washington are of the opinion that
the conference is ended. They have
removed the clothing and the jewels
from the twins to which the Washing
ton Monument gave birth in the latter
part of October. These twins, replicas

necklace, fifty feet across, was strung
over the road between them. There
were emeralds and rubies az big as

phires, pearls and opals. At night bril-
liant lights were flashed upon them,
making them scintillste. During tn.
day they sparkled in the rays OF the

In fact, speculation upon which way

broader is the Senatorial beam as the

what the Senate can do, and how 3

President cannot decide the country's
foreign policy by himself, and hoT

do in the present case. And as the
visitors find many strange things in

which they receive.
The Senate for the nonce outshadows

called to deal with Pacific naval pro-
portions. There have been no prelimi-
nary studies by the conference, it was
pointed out, of European problems. dis
cussions having been confined to tho
Ear East. The disposition Of the
French delegates, which is described as
one OF calm tenacity," is taken as an
indication by many that the meetings
Of the naval subcommittee may Be
more interesting than has been sup
posed by most observers.
