COAL MINE DEATHS
To Be CONSIDERED
At j. s. CONFERENCE

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-(By the
Associated Press. Means of reduc-
inc loss of life in the coal mining in
dust1y will be considered at ma
tional conference to be called early
in the new year by President Cool,
idge.
Steps already have been taken by
the department of interior and it's
bureau OF mines to arrange pro-
gram for the conference, and invita-
tons viii be sent out soon after gov
ernors- elect in the coal states have
taken office
All states in which coal is mined
will be asked to send representatives
including Pennsylvania, West Vir-
2inia, Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Hi
nois. Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama,
Utah, South Dakota, and Wyoming.
The frequency of coal mine eN-
blossoms with great loss of life to-
gether with the ordinary hazards
of the industry have brought of
ficials to the conclusion that the
federal government might properly
seek the cooperation of the states
in promoting greater safety to coal
mine workers.
The governors of all of the prin
cipal coal producing states will be
asked to send representatives, and
as planned the gathering will in
clude besides federal and state au-

|VAVY'S A|RPLANES
GROWING OBSOLETE,
MOFFETT TEST|F|ES

WASHINGTON, Dec. -. - Only
224 of the $40 planes of ali kinds in
possession of the navy could be used
effectively in case of war, Rear Adj
miral Moffett, chief of the bureau of
aeronautics testified Monday before
the special aircraft investigating
committee of the house.
About 500 airplanes are obsolete,
+; he said, and even the 224 which
could be used effectively are becom-
ing out of date. Among the PA are
included SO Douglas torpedo type, 81
three-seated rs fighters, five three
seated CS fighting and bombing
planes and SO spotting planes. These
types have been improved upon, Ad-
miral Moffett said, the Douglas tor
pedO especially, the newest type be
ing superior to any other in the
world.
At the beginning of November. III
planes were afloat doing service on
ships 1t is the policy of the de-
partment, the admiral said, to install
planes on all fighting craft Two
fighting planes and one observation
plane will be put on every battle
ship. and even every destroyer will
have it's plane.
As far as efficiency of performance
and air personnel and type of planes
are concerned, Admiral Moffett said
that nobody is ahead of us, in fact
we are leading"
1--WE are so far ahead of anybody
else in naval aviation that it will
take them a long time to catch up"
he declared.
Several European countries have
q greater number of planes and pi-
lots than the United States, the adj
miral said, but he pointed out that
they have not done the experimental
ton and the research carried out
here. No other country has devel
oped planes for duty aboard ship, he
added, and the catapult for launch
ing aircraft is a purely American
invention.
Several European countries are
ahead of the United States in COM
mercial aviation, Admiral Moffett
said. because European governments
subsidize the industry as part of the
national defense.
Admiral MOffett disagreed with
assertions that the next war will be
fought wholly in the air.
The air is merely new arm, but
will not displace anything" he
said
Freight and troops will still have |
to be carried by ships, he added |
and they will have to be protected |
by aircraft. but planes, he said, are
handicapped by having to rely on
landing bases.
He opposed the suggestion adj |
vanced by Brigadier General Mitch |
ell, of the army air service and 9th |
ers. of a unified air service, as not |
beneficial either to the country's de- |
Tense or to air commerce.
If naval aviation were controlled |
by people not experts in the navys |
needs. he said. disaster" would re- |
suit in operating with the fleet
Landsmen, he added, are not com |
petent to pass on naval aviation.
The admiral approves the cross !
license agreement between manu-
facturers as beneficial to the gov
eminent, making it possible to build |
planes speedily when they are need /
ed.
49, Invention and designs submitted !
by individuals to the navy depart |
ment, he said, are carefully inVesti- |
gated by experts

NEW BLOC SEEKS
To WEB j. 8. WITH
ELECTRIC LINES

WASHINGTON, Dec %. A new
electric power "bloc" - with visions
of the day when the United States
will lie supplied with government
electricity for operating all it's fac
tories, railroads and home utilities
has been formed in congress.
Ultimately it's members hope to
have Il web of government electric
lines that will reach into every city
and town in the country. The use
of coal would be supplanted by cleo
tricity from rushing streams, har-
messed by federal funds.
Just now they want to put through
this session of congress the Norris
bill for government operation Of
Muscle Shoals, the big boulder can,
yon project in Arizona and the great
falls power project on the Potomac.
These three projects form the ba-
sis for the movement. If they can
be adopted, twenty states will be sup
piled with government power. Mus
Gle Shoals will spread it's electric ten.
tacles through Tennessee, Alabama.
Kentucky, Mississippi, Georgia, the
Carolinas and Florida, and perhaps
even as far as st. Louis. The boulder
canyon would benefit California, New
Mexico. Arizona, Nevada Utah, Col
orado and perhaps western Texas.
Great Fails would supply Virginia,
Maryland, Pennsylvania and even
some of West Virginia.
The bloc moved it's activities today
from the floor of the senate, where
it has been fighting against the On
derWoOd bill, to the senate irriga-
ton and reclamation committee,
where hearings are being opened on
the boulder canyon projecn The
Great Falls development project,
which would cost the government
nearly $60,000,0 900, already has pass
ed the senate and is pending in the
house.
Hearings are to be held through
the holidays in the hope that the
boulder canyon project can be forced
on the floor as soon as Muscle
Shoals is completed.
These projects are national Is
sues which affect every Individual
III every CITY, senator MOTIFS, one
of the prime movers of the move
ment, says. action must be OBJ
tanned at this session of congress,
and there is every reason for haste,
especially in connection with the
boulder dam project, where at any
time the temperamental Colorado
river may wash away the earnings
of the farmers of the Imperial Val
ley.
Theoretically Muscle Shoals is
largely a fertilizer proposition, and
boulder dam is an irrigation propo-
sition. But fundamentally they are
both the same-pOWer propositions
IF the boulder canyon is har-
messed for irrigation purposes, it
would be foolish not to utilize the
power produced. | understand al
ready that the city of Los Angeles
has offered "a proposition to use the
power produced
These three projects are just the
beginning.
There will come a day in these
United States when electrical power
will operate the nation"
