Admiral Tells Air Probers
Shenandoah's Successor
Should Be Built.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7-tP-Rear
Admiral William A. Moffett, chief of
the naval bureau of aeronautics, told
the Presidents air board today that
the Shenandoah should be replaced
with rigid airship built in the United
States and of at least six million cubic
feet capacity as compared with the .
1850 cubic feet capacity of the
wrecked ship.
He took sharp issue with Colonel
William Mitchell, who had declared
"bungling" of the navy had caused
failure of the Shenandoah, Hawaiian
and North Polar projects in which
navy aircraft participated.
PLANES TESTED.
Although not mentioning Colonel
Mitchell by name, Admiral Moffett de-
clared that the Hawaiian flight was
undertaken with every reason for be-
lief of successful outcome. as the
planes had been thoroughly tested.
Parachutes were not carried on the
Shenandoah, he said. as experience
had shown that if the ship fell sud
denly, they would be of but little
value. while if the descent were slow
the dirigible would serve as its own
parachute. Mitchell charged failure
TO equip the air liner with parachutes
was like sending "a vessel to sea with
out lifeboats."
OFFERS PLACE.
The purpose of navy planes with the
Macmillan Arctic eyDadition he do
clarcd. was exploration and the collec-
ton of data, and this was done.
Recalled for further examination
after his appearance about two weeks
ago. Admiral Moffett submitted a num-
Der Of recommendations for revision o(
the air forces of the army and navy.
He urged the establishment of bu-
reau of civil aeronautics in the De-
partment of Commerce, and an air
ship base on the west coast.

On his way he passed the pond.
1t was frozen over and all the boys
and girls were skating and having
a fine time.
Snitcher Snatch stopped and watch
ed them.
"I'd like to have good time, too,"
he said.
He looked around, and there, al
most beside him, was a pair of bright
gotten.
"A frog he would a-wooing go,
And goblin can skate if he knows
how-or no"
sang Snitcher Snatch sitting down
and clamping the skates to his heels.
Then he struck right out and
mingled with the crowd.
At first he fell good bit, but by
and by he got the hang of it and
he sailed around the ice pond as we'll
as the best of them.
"Look at that funny little boy!"
said some of the skaters.
"My ears! Ny ears!" thought
Snitcher Snatch. They'll give me
away, as they are all sharp pointed
at the top. What can I do?"
But he soon saw.
A boy had gotten too warm and
had taken his ear-muffs off and stuff
ed them into his pocket.
But one ear-muff hung out and it
didn't take Snitcher Snatch long to
spy it.
So he skated beside the boy till he
got good chance. Then he pulled
the ear-muffs out very softly and put
them on his own ears.
"Now no one. will know that I'm
a goblin" he chuckled. my long
nose won't matter. Lots of people
have long noses. Look at the presi-
dent"
So he skated around and no one
noticed him much.
At last he had good chance to do
what he had really come to do. To
do some mischief.
There was sign on a thin place
in the ice which said danger"
The goblin skated close to it,. being
so light n everything, and yanked
up the Danger" sign and skated
away.
Then he stuck the sign in another
place altogether, propping it up with
some snow and ice till it stuck.
Then he sat down on the bank and
watched. But he took his skates of
SO he could run.
All the skaters commenced to
skate where the thin ice was, be-
cause the sign was gone and they
were having such good time they
never stopped to think.
Besides" thought they, ITS get.
ting colder and the ice is thicker and
the constable has taken the sign
down."
But pop! crack! Six fell in! No.
body was drowned but they got q
chill and soaking.
II guess I'll be going" said
Snitcher Snatch. :"
did anybody see a little goblin
around here?" asked Nancy's voice
as the Twins arrived.
But nobody had.

THE LOAD STILL STAYS

that national decreased than 81 per the
three years previous to 1924.
In the time state and local taxes increased per
cent.
Figures for 1924 have not yet been rounded up. But
they'll show the same tendency.
The total of all taxes has decreased national reduc
tions have exceeded state and local increases.
But there's very serious situation in the fact that state
and local taxes continue mounting steadily
In the great and we'll justified campaign economy
national government taxpayers have not been sufficiently
viglant in watching the tax spenders closer at home
So have the farccal situation of tax burden being
piled backs from side about fast as it is re-
moved from the other. 80
the combined debts of all American states and
municipalities totaed less than four billion dollars Today
the figure not below IL billions Roughly it is half
big the national debt which stupendous that it

maticians
Final corrected figures apparently will show that more
state and local onger bonds issued in
1924 than in any year of the past *
Increased debt increased interest to pay-and the
only way to get it is by higher taxes. s3ta
We must have such improvements necessary. But
it is perlous mortgage the future and more The

will lose all the advantages of national economy

LACK OF INTEREST

With four and half million service entitled to adj
iusted compensation referred bonus only about
million have applied Publicity efforts of the government
have been most complete to get the to the eg
bles
The government is pointing out that married men who
fa make application will deprive their families of sub
stana sum of their death If eligible makes
pication himself his widow will get lump sum of $780,
if it is left the widow she gets but $625 divided into
ten quarterly payments
Those who feel that they do not need the money and
refuse take the bonus to be congratulated upon their
patutism a service who is in need who poorly
against future contingencies should protect his fam
lily and make the application himself.
But after all the lack of interest is fine commentary
upon the spirit the veterans of the World War. The adj
of the bonus evidently did not speak for the entire
personnel of the splendid army which rsked all in defense OF
the Republic.

New York, Jan. 9.-The homeless

road in New York. ~
A woman without luggage may
not register at New York hotel at

local taxation directly arises from the operation of state
laws Salaries of local officials increased which
that political subdivisions of the charged with paying
