CIVIL AVIATION
BILL IS REPORTED
Senate Committee Gives Ap-
prOvaI to Measure to
Aid Flying.

In repnI'tin" IA vorahly to the Sen
ate today a bill to encourage CONNER
cial aviation in This country, Senator
Bingham of the committee on COM
merCe. made Il report pointing out
that European countries have done
more than the United States TO foster
commercial n Walton.
1T is no secret" the report said.
that in England and France com
mercial aviation is safer than in the
United States. It is no secret that
France and England are spending
more money on aviation than we are.
Last year England provided about
81 $50 900 TO aid commercial aviation.
This included the upkeep of CONNER
Cial airportS, the surveying of new
airways. the purchase of land for the
Improvement Of air ports. the con
struCtion of buildings thereon and a
direct subsidy to the Great Imperial
AirWayS Corporation to enable them
to carry on regular service between
London and various cities on the con
tinent.
The report points out that although
American built the first airplane cap
able of sustained fight, commercial
aviation has not advanced as rapidly
in the United States as had been
hoped and expected.
The Bingham bill would give the
Secretary of Commerce authority to
make all necessary regulations to con-
troll commercial flying and to foster
this field of commerce in various
ways. The bill does not affect mill
tary. naval or postal aircraft. 1t was
reported out with one amendment.

TRACTION MERGER
FAVORED IN REPORT
Commissioners for Speedy
Unification of Railways.
Bell Tells Capper.

Noicing the opinion of the Public
Utilities Commission that street ear
merger should he brought about as
soon as possible, Engineer Commits
Sioner Bell today forwarded Ia Scna-
tor Camper. chairman of the District
Committee. a report on what has been
done in the street railway situation
since the last session of Congress.
The commission transmitted copies
of the letter which il had recently
addressed to both street railway com
panies asking them what progress has
been made towards n merger. The
commission also sent to Senator Cap
per copies of the answer to this letter
in which both companies stated that
conferences had been held. but that
any prediction of the outcome would
be premature.
The commission transmitted to Con
creSs copies of the ira importation sur
vey which was made during the sum
mer and expressed the belief that this
survey contained valuable information
in connection with a merger. In con
cluSion. the commission stated in its
letter to Senator Capper:
The Public Utilities Commission is
strongly of the opinion that the local
transportation agencies should be uni
fed as soon as possible in order that
the best interests of the public may be
served"
The commission made no sdefinite
recommendations at this time. The
last Congress enacted a law authoriz-
ing the railway companies to work out
a voluntary merger, the terms of
which would be approved by Congress.

BOMBING OF HOSPITAL
MYSTERY IN MONTANA
Authorities Seeking Clue to Explo-
sion at Sisters of Mercy In
stitution at Kalispell.

BY the Associated Press
kAL1SPELL, Mont, December IA.
The dynamiting of Sisters of Mercy
Hospital here late Saturday night was
under investigation today.
No one was injured, but the explo-
sion smashed the windows of the
front part of the building and badly
damaged the dining room.
Authorities believe an insane per-
son placed the bomb.
Smoke from the burning fuse led
sisters of the hospital to look at the
furnace, taking them out of the din
ing room and probably saving their
lives. The bomb was placed on n
window sill of the dining room. Part
of the fuse was found by police near
by. and is their main clue.
Several convalescent patients were
removed to their homes, but the ma
jority remained in the hospital fol-
lowing the explosion.

Similar illusions To their voluntary
imprisonment" have been made by
nearly all the Popes in their public
utteranCeS since 1870 as form of
protest against the deprivation of the
NaticanS temporal power.
Todays allocution also was signif-
cant in that it marked the first time
since 1870 that any Pope had uttered
favora BILE remarks concerning the
Italian government or the head of the
Italian cabinet
Although Pope Plus NJ was not I'M

regime. he formally expressed regret
