will play in future conflicts. The admiral said that the alrplane had little chance to show its ability in the world war. but its possibilities were realized and later tests showed fine results. In the world fight little naval work was done by the mir service as most Of the machines were needed by the army for its bombing and other work. The tests after the war had convinced some officials of the valuable quality of the alrplane but other officials could not be altered In their views that the alrplane was not destined 10 become potent war factor. This doubt of the airplane went so far as 10 be expressed by Secretary Dan ie!s Of the navy that he would take out ship himself and handle it during bombing tests. Needless 10 say he did not take sucf action and the tests showed conclusively what damage could be wrought by the airplanes 10 a ship, Sims said. "If we keep enough anachincs on our shores, we won't have to worry about machines flying overseas to attack us," the admiral said. as the stunt planes were the only ones to do over ocean work and the real damagers must have base close al hand The few chances of hitting a flying machine were told by the admiral, who also spoke of the aid 1 given by the machines in range find. i ing. He concluded his remarks on the airplane by expressing the opin- ion that the big battleship was q back number.
 Fertilization Of Pacific
 ! How congress was so afraid of the American public that 1t keep a tight lock on the country's purse strings was told by Admiral Sims in his ex- plantation of the tardiness of thls country in realizing that fortiiica- tions were needed in the Pacific, es- pecially at Guam, if the Philippines were to be protected. His earlier criticism of the newspapers wae somewhat tempered at this point, by his narration of a conversation with the chief of the bureau of navigation in regard 10 the dispatching of the Atlantic fleet for target practice. The admiral favored Pensacola, while the chief said Guantanamo was the
 place as Notifications were needed there and elaborate plans had beer
 made for the entertainment of tho
 newspapermen over an extended
 reriod so that all members of con-
 gress would be fully acquainted witf the place in question and thereb!
 make the securing of an appropri
 alton much easier.
 The Navy's Trouble
 That the navy has not been taker
 seriously In the past was the declar
 ation Of Admiral Sims in eXplainini
 what had ailed the department. H. said that faulty officials, some O whom had used the navy for poll tical purposes like Josephus Dan iels. had wrecked havoc. There tn
 trouble lay. he said. Admiral Sim concluded by saying that the Amerl cans cooperated perfectly with tn
 Allies in the world conflict. He als

SAYS JAZZ REPLACES
MELODIES IN HAWAII
Composer Declares Tendency Now
Is to Play Only Noise,
Not Harmony.
Correspondence of the Associated Press.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press
HONOLULU, August 16.-Hawaiian
troubadors, the wandering musicians
who once filed the island nights with
the melodies of the olden days with
voice and stringed Instruments, have
traded their ukeleles and banjos for
SaXophoneS and are making 1.-The
night hideous with their walls"
This is the statement of Charles E.
King, former territorial Senator and
composer of many Hawaiian songs
who is taking an active part in
movement to revive the ancient GUS
tom of serenading by night with
ukuleles and other stringed instru-
ments.
People want to hear the old
songs" Senator King said.
Tendency to Play Noise.
"They want to dance, too, and can
dance to anything that has rhythm.
But there is nothing in the world
which makes loveIier dance music
than the songs of the islands, which
provide a wide variety of time and
rhythm SO that any sort of modern
dance music can be achieved. The
tendency now, simply because people
do not discourage it, is to play noise.
The dance orchestras today, using
largely the saXophone, do not produce
melody. Sometimes the men who
play the saxophones do not know
either their instruments or music.
But they are natural musicians and
so pick out their own way of playing,
with the result that an orchestra
sometimes is led by a group of two
or three saxophones. all playing the
same air and producing the effect of
all noise and no music.
1.-The great harmony and melody in
Hawaiian songs came largely through
the efforts of Theodore Richards, who
taught part singing. Previously the
Hawaiians had sung and played only
melodies. Because there was nothing
else to do the young people developed
this form of entertaining themselves
and their nelghbors to a high degree.
Now there are the movies and
dancing and radio and all the facts
of modern civilization. The tendency
has been to seek these forms of en-
tertainment and forget that music and
custom of former days

lPLANES OF BULLET-LIKE SPEED
TO BE In ANNUAL PULITZER RACE
Three Curtiss Craft, Army, Navy and Marine Corps
Entries, Will Represent Service in Big Aerial
Contests With Ships of Civilians.

An attempt to break the world
speed record of 27S miles an hour
VIII be made in the Pulitzer event at
the New York 1925 air races at
Mitchell Field, Garden City, Long Is
land, on October 8, 9 and 10. The
question of whether a human being
can travel five miles a minute and
remain conscious will he one of many
that will probably be answered when
the special Curtiss racers streak
around the 31-mile triangular course
at unbelievable speeds.
1t Is almost humanity impossible to
conceive of a speed of more than $50
miles an hour. AS an illustration,
there is the fact that the best
cameras in the world have invariably
failed to take any kind of a picture of
one of these Curtiss racing planes in
flight. In all previous Pulitzer races
the speeds were below $50 miles an
hour and in not one instance was any
photogra pher quick enough or a lens
fast enough to record an impression
of the race in progress.
Like Fast Projectile.
The ships can be hkened only to a
high speed projectile and this simile
is more readily seen when il is recalled
that Lieut.. Williams. holder of the
Pulitzer record with 24368 miles per
hour, has repeatedly flown the racers
on one side over distances of more
than a mile. In this way all aid of
wings in keeping the ship aloft is dis
pensed with and the plane must rely
only on its speed to keep it in the air.
1t is significant that in these flights
Williams kept the plane at an even
altitude by merely proving the old
IA
fast enough it can't fall
In the international air races at St
Louis in 1928 Lieut.. Williams made
his Pulitzer record, and of the six
planes in the race the slowest time
made was 216 miles an hour A few
weeks after this event Lieut. Williams
set world straightaway speed record
Of 266 miles an hour, but this was sur
passed a short time later by a French
fier who made 27S miles an hour and
created the world record for speed
which still stands.
Speed Is Average.
1t must be remembered that in the
Pulitzer race, the speed recorded at
the finish is the average per mile for
the entire route of l2427 miles. be-
ing four times around a 31-mile tri-
angular course. The fact that the
ships have to slow up for turn every
ten miles must also be considered
Despite this, however, officials are
confident that in the Pulitzer event
this year, an average of more than 800
miles an hour will be made, if that is
possible.
The CurtiSs racers which will be
flown in the race are three specially
designed ships built solely for the
nlgh speed event at the New York
1925 air races, One of these will be

PLANS SIMPLE GARB.

PARIS, September IL LP).-Man in
stead of woman is put in the position
of being a real slave to fashion by DR..
p. f. Armand Delille, whose efforts to
promote masculine hygiene have
caused the French and their news
papers to discuss the advisability of
aboliShing trousers.
The doctor advocates the smallest
amount of clothing possible and is
reasonably satisfied that women have
gone about far enough, but he has no
patience with starched collars, tight
shoes and the customary layers of
underwear, shirt, vest and coat. He
proposes men to go bare-legged, bare
armed and to dress loosely generally.

CAMPUS OF SEVEN
FLAGS" DESERTED
Louisiana University Leaves
Old Site Over Which Many
Banners Waved.
BY the Associated Press.


BATON ROUGE, La, September II.
When the Louisiana State Univer
sity opens on September 25 on the new
site, it will have deserted a campus
over which the flags of seven nations
have flown. The old site which was
rendered the State when the United
States Army garrison was abandoned,
had since the seventeenth century
been used as an army post by those
seven nations.
The first banner to float in the
breezes was the Bourbon flag. "the
oriflamme of Navarro" the white
banner embroidered with three golden
fleur-de-is. The fleur-de-lis bedecked
ensign was hauled down in 1873 and
in its stead the Union Jack of the
British Dominion was raised. Gen.

Americans and negroes marched
against the post from New Orleans
Is years later. capturing it. and raised
over it the flag of Spain with its lions
and castle in a center of red and vel
low stripes.
Lone Star Flag Flown.
In 1910 the flag Of the Republic of
West Florida replaced the Spanish en-
blem, when the fort was stormed by
Gen. Philemon Thomas and for few
months the lone star flag" q blue
flag with a single silver star in the
center, tioated over the historic cam
puS. The Stars and Stripes dis
placed the lone star flag" when Pres
ident Madison ordered Gov. Claiborne
to take control of the territory which
was considered a part of the Louis
lana purchase.
For fifty-one years the Star Span
gled Banner" fiuttered proudly in the
breezes, to be hauled down and re
placed by the unique flag of the Re
public Of Louisiana, which the State
became upon secession of the State
from the Union.
U. s. Banner Raised
The flag that f1oated over the garri-
son during this period consisted of 13
stripes. four blue, six white and three
red and in the upper left hand corner
field of red containing a single star
of pale yellow. This was designed by
a committee named for such a purpose
and combined the colors of all flags
that had up to that time floated over
the post
The Stars and Bars of the Confed-
eraCy replaced the Louisiana flag.

Confederacy.
When Farragut started up the Mis-
sissippi to clear the route OF Southern
forces, Baton Rouge was captured by

OF the seven flags that have f1oated
over Baton Rogue, four were of re-
publics and three monarchies.

Living Conditions
In Florida Scored
In Warming Letter

Following the receipt of numerous
reports on conditions in Florida, A.
Il. Seymour, secretary of the Wash
ington Chamber of Commerce, de-
clared today that living and other
conditions exist in that State which
ought to be given publicity
Mr.. Seymour produced a letter,
sent from Florida by a person who
has had experience there, which de-
clares that "a decent living cannot
even be made" in that State.
A paragraph from the letter reads:
Rents are prohfbitive at present
and as the tourist season nears prices
of rooms, apartments and food will
soar. L am paying $50 a week for
a room and one can scarcely live for
less than 81 a day for food, car and
Jitney fares in addition. The salaries
are not commensurate with the high
cost of living, and. in fact. if the
influx of people continues, there will
be no positions for anybody"
The writer did not wish her name
published, said Mr.. Seymour, but, he
added, the letter is on file at the
Washington Chamber of Commerce's 3
headquarters and will be shown to
any one desiring to see It,

1t has the sympathetic support Of all
