In the Campbell studio may be
found one of the most complete
lighting arrangements for photogra-
ply of any place in the state. Mr.
Campbell has the distinction of be-
ing among the pioneers in the state
of electric light usage in studio
work. He has been most successful
in this phase of the work.
Mr.. Campbell IS n strong advocate
of the use of artificial light in pho

experimenting is an advantage, be-
cause of the same lighting. Mr..

FLIERSCALLED
TO TESTIFY IN
AVIATION PROBE
Men Who Served In War
With Mitchell Tell of
Merits Of Anti-Air-
craft Gun Fire
(By The Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. i2--fhe
house aircraft committee opened another
chapter today in the hearings which
have stirred up army and navy circles
by calling number of former army
fliers who served in France with Brig.
Gen. Mitchell, assistant chief Of the
army air service, and central figure in
the present controversy.
General Mitchell himself was sum
moned to reappear before the committee
after the other witnesses to reply to
recent charges before the committee by
Captain A. w. Johnson. assistant naval
air chief, that the general had disobeyed
orders in the 1921 bombing tests off the
Virginia capes. Captain Johnson, whom
General Mitchell had previously re-
ferred to as the "juniOr" naval officer
in command of the tests, declared he
would have courtmartialled the army Of
ficer had he possessed the authority.
Members Of congress were invited by
General Mitchell to attend a motion
picture exhibit in the aircraft committee
room tonight to demonstrate the value
of aircraft in war.
W. J. Schauffler, who was major in
the world war. told the committee that
the statement by Brig. Gen. Drum of the
army general staff, that IL anti-craft
guns would ward off an sirplane attack
was absolute rot Experienced avi
ators, he said, snap their fingers" at
anti-aircraft guns.

man anti-aircraft fire.
Harold +. Hartney of Washington,
d. c., who commanded the first pursuit
group in France discounted the value Of
anti-aircraft fire
Hartney also declared the navy de-
partment recently had turned down
specifications for new airplane which
in his opinion. if used by another ma
tion and not by the United States, would
compel this country to sue for peace.
He refused to discuss the matter sin de-
tail at a public hearing and requested
the committee to call him in executive
session.
The witness said that the inventor Of
the new plane. "one of the greatest en-
gineers Of the world" had brought
out something that is absolutely vital.

TO MEET TODAY
Subscribers to Fund VIII
Hear Proposals. From
Various Statesmen

The fund for the construction in
Brownsville Of a radiocasting station
had reached approximately $500 this
morning, according to announcement by
Lee B. James, chairman of the collect
ing committee.
A third $500 contribution to the fund
was announced ucday. This was by c.
". Strain general passenger agent OF
the Gulf Coast Lines, Houston in a
Telegram, to Mr.. James.
A meeting of the subscribers to the
fund will be held at the city hall at
2:30 O'Clock this afternoon, at which
time they will hear offers from various
concerns to supply the necessary equip
mcnt
Although the committee started cut
with the intention Of raising g, fund of
up to $4,000, it has now been about de-
cided, Mr.. James said, that the outside
figure will be around $4,000 1t is be-
licved this amount will pay for the in.
. stallaticn Of the riant and finance its
earlier needs.
1T is my idea, Mn. James said, ''that
tbs collection committee will not under
take to make the purchase cf equip
ment. This should be done BY vote OF
the meeting this afternoon. which no
doubt will authorize the appointment Of
a special committee to make the pur-
chase and look after details of install
ing the plant. The subscribers to the
fund will hear fully the sales talks Of
the representatives Icf dealers, after
which they should be able to come to
some conclusion"
