WEEKS PLEADS FOR
ARMY AIR FORCE
Tells House Committee
Money Allotted for Service
Is Found Inadequate.

Secretary Weeks told the House
committee investigating the aircraft
industry today that the money allot-
ted to the Army Air Service was in
sufficient to maintain an adequate air
force.
Although the approximately $16,-
100000 recommended in the Army
bill for next year. he said. was the
largest sum ever allotted to the sery-
ice. it fell far short of the amount re-
quired. He complimented the work of
Maj, Gen. Patrick, in charge of the
service,
Cites Progress by other Nations.
The impression in this country that
other nations are doing more toward
developing their air forces was
brought about. Mr.. Weeks said, be-
cause of the development of CONNER
cial aviation abroad.
Asked if the race In armament had
not developed into a race In air arma-
ment. tho Secretary said it had, but
SO far 1t isn't much Of race"
The Secretary recommended build
ing up commercial aviation, even to
the point OF a subsidy, as the best
means of developing an adequate air
reserve force.
Unificntion Held Inadvisable,
Secretary Weeks would not recon-
mend unff1cation of the Army and
Navy Air Services, Unification might
have some advantage in time Of peace,
he added, but it would have great
disadvantages in war, where air
forces would be responsible to a large
extent in bringing hostilities to an end
The fields Of operation of the two
services, the Secretary asserted,
should be defined. the Navy being
restricted to relate to the fleet and
it's operations and the Army to cover
all other places.

Although the use of advertising may
be new, the practice of giving scholar
ships to athletes is general through
out secondary schools all over the
country.
I'VE don't actually pay them any

they do a little work around the
school, like answering telephone and
waiting on the table. I don't see how
the fact they accept these scholar

HOOVER SPEAKS
ATFARM PARLEY
Urges Relaxation of Restraint
of Trade Acts to Aid
Agriculture.

Asserting that he favored a relaxa-
ton Of the restraint of trade acts af-
fecting agriculture, Secretary Hoover,
in an address before the National Coun-
Gil of Farmers Cooperative Marketing
Association, today sketched a theoret-
ical agricultural policy.
This stressed the three points
having the United States self-sup-
porting as to it's food supply; the
up-building of organization among
farmers themselves, such as the CO.
operative movement, and the elimina-
ton of waste, which. he said, affected
fraction of American life.
'An of the alarm that has been
expressed as to the combination of
farmers to initiate against the con-
sumer, Mr.. Hoover asserted, lis to
my mind entirely unnecessary and
not worthy of consideration"
There needs to be a larger oppor-
tunity for agricultural cooperation
under the restraint of trade acts, he
asserted. He cited the work of the
department in standardizing cement
bolts and nuts, lumber and ware
houses, as an aid to cheapening pro-
duction, distribution and consump-
tion. Assistance at this point is need
ed by Government. agencies, he de-
clared
Sees Terminals Needed.
Terminal facilities have not kept
pace with demands, Mr.. Hoover said
urging some type of organization at
these points to assist producer and
consumer Declaring that he had
mad secondary part in the Capper-
Williams bill, Mr.. Hoover said thai
he cared not by what means the re-
suit was accomplished of aiding agri-
culture. He advocated an outside
audit of cooperative organizations
10 strengthen them.
Recommendation that the National
council of Farmers Cooperative AS
sociations undertake development of
a national system of educa ton on the
cooperative movement was made In
an address prepared for today's ses-
sion of the organizations convention
by Walton Peteet, its secretary. Edu-
cation and credits were the central
topics for discussion today.
Mr. Peteet urged an educational
movement that would reach down
through national, state and local
leaders to farmer members of CO.
operatives and to the general public"
He advocated appointment of a COM
mittee to consider the entire subject
and report to the National Council at
tomorEow's business session.
Asserting that inefficient manage
ment was often a result of failure of
directors to understand the rudiments
OF sound business practice and in
ability to pick real business execu-
tives for cooperative units, Mr..
Peteet suggested as remedy a "sys-
tenn of self education in cooperative
marketing by and for American
farme RS"

That Wisconsin lags in her refOres-
tation program and that the develop
ment of the states timber resources
should start at once is the opinion of
many Wisconsin men, who have
watched the vast forests dwindle and
great industry diminish in size.
Among those holding this opinion is
Dean H. l.. Russell, of the Wisconsin
College of Agriculture.
Once Mainstay of State
While numbering was once the chief
industry in the state and even though
it has decreased in Importance, Dean
Russell points out that it is still one
of Wisconsin's great assets. Because
of excellent water power facilities, the
paper industry At the present time
there are so paper and pulp mills To-
Gated in 80 Badger towns, represent
ing an investment of 11S million dol
lars and returning annually SO million
dollars. More than $4,000 Wisconsin
people, employed in this gigantic in
dustry, receive an annual pay check
of 20 million dollars.
Compared with other states, Wis
cOnsin even today stands second in
the production of pulp and third in
the output of paper and newsprint.
AS the timber from Wisconsin for
ests has been cut for the paper and
pulp trade, it has become necessary to
import lumber from other regions to
keep the states mills running Last
year, no less than 100000 cords came
into Wisconsin from Minnesota alone.
Furthermore, the Dean shows that
lumber shortage has caused many Of
the mills to change from the manufac-
ture of newsprint to other types of
work, even though this entailed a
great loss because of the change in
machinery.
Since 1910, Dean Russell explains
the paper needs of the country has
increased four times. America now
uses Sc per cent of the worlds output
of paper And this country, at the
present time, imports half of its paper,
81 per cent coming from Canada and
16 per cent from northern Europe.
While the United States has been us
ing nine million cords of wood annu-
ally, only half of this amount was cut
IN the Union.
The Dean showed the attitude of
foreign countries who may at any
time place high tax on export pulp:
Canada has already taken action to
require logs to be made into pulp be-
fore being exported from her crown
lands Citing an anaIa gous case
where adverse action was taken on
product controlled by foreign ma
ton, Russell points to the rubber in
