Sen. Bingham Opposes
Unified Aviation Service !;
Flaws General Staff

Taking sharp issue with Briga-
der General William Mitchell, as
sistant chief of the army air serv-
ice, Senator Bingham (Rep) OF Con.
necticut, today vigorously opposed
a unified air service before the
House Aircraft Committee.
Bingham organized the aVlatlon
ground schools at the start or the
war and later commanded the
Iergest American flying school in
France.
AS the best means to advance
aviation in America, Bingham urged
establishment of a bureau or civil
aeronautics under the commerce
department.
Bingham said he was amazed"
at the lack of knowledge or the
general staff concerning aviation.
During the war, and after, the
general staff know very little about
our air SERVICE" said Bingham.

Federal Trade Commission in the
matter Of the other charge against
Mr.. Warren-namely, the one in.
volving the relations between the
Michigan Beet Sugar Company, OF
which Mr.. Warren has been presi.
dent, and the Larrowe Milling Com
pany-took q new phase when 1t
was discovered by White House
inquirers that the Federal Trade
Commission itself had just recently
given a clean bill of health TO the
situation of which 1t now COM
plains.
Basis Of Complaint.
1t now complains, 1t was noted,
that a great many beet sugar com.
panies, including Mr.. Warren'S
Michigan Sugar Company, all sell
their refuse beet pulp to or through
the Larrowe Company: and 1t com
plains that in this way, through
some sort Of conspiracy. the Lar
rowe Company is artificia1ly given
a monopolistic position.
White House inquirers, conduct
ing their new researches into the
territory Of the Federal Trade Com
mission, discovered that in a recent
report, signed by all members OF
the Federal Trade Commission, the
sO-called nonopolistic position OF
the Larrowe Company was an
alyzed and explained in a manner
thoroughly favorable to the com
pany. This, it was pointed out by
Administration supporters, was be-
fore Mr.. Warren had been nomi.
mated to be Attorney General and
before political considerations could
enter into the matter.
What Report Said.
In the report in question the
Federal Trade Commission unani
mously said:
1.-THE reason why the Larrowe
Milling Company has been able to
secure the hold upon the dried beet
pulp production that it has, Is Que
to the active part it took in max.
ing this product commercially valu'
able. Some companies were not
willing to risk. building driers. and
in such cases the Larrowe company
contracted to build them with Its
own capital, taking its pay there
for in dried beet-pulp. Because
Of its pioneer work in retaining
a waste product, the Larrowe Mill
ing Company was favored by the
sugar companies, ana the dominant
position now enjoyed by it has re-
suited. The fact that the Larrowe
Milling Company does have consid-
cradle control Of the dried beet-pulp
supply has not provoked much
complaint. Moreover, imports OF
dried beet.pulp from Europe have
increased steadily, and this source
may be used by competitors of the
Larrowe company"
This information. together with
the reply made by the Michigan
Sugar Company to the Federal
Trade Commissions recent com
plant, is being conveyed to Sen.
ators and 1t can be stated without
question that the Larrowe Com
pany matter is ceasing to have
any weight whatsoever in the Sen.

Friends to Honor Him

being so many that it was difficult to
keep track of them and find out every
thing as may we'll be imagined when
one remembers that they were able
to reduce forty separate departments
into eight. Along with this economy
program Judge Agnew introduced and
obtained the passage of the requisi-
tion act providing that no department
could spend funds without first having
the Comptroller's o. X. This was a
very necessary act as previously de-
partments could purchase as they
pleased, with no check on them, and
whether the money to pay for same
had been provided or not. The In
heritance Tax Law of 1914 under
which the State still operates is an
other important bill which Judge. Ag-
new introduced. The Judge says that
during this time many laughable in
cidents occupied owing to his being
mistaken for his brother James c..
Agnew, who was representing Hudson
County in the Legislature at this
time.
During the war period Judge Agnew
served as chairman of the local Red
Cross Branch, and was very active
in all patriotic drives.
Another very odd fact about the
Borough of Cliffside Park is that it
has had since it's birth but two at
torneys, the first being Mr.. Samuel
G. H. Wright, now diseased, who
served the Borough from 1895 to 1914;
when Mayor August Newman ap-
pointed Judge Agnew, who continues
to serve the Borough From 1915 to
1919 he served as Assistant Prosecu-
tor of Bergen County. The Judge has
since been United States Commits
sioner since 1923, which has become
since the Prohibition Law an exceed
ingly interesting and important posi-
tion, and stories of the cases that come
before him would make any fiction
tame by comparison The Judge now
resides in one of the most beautiful
houses in Grantwood situated on the
Southwest corner of Columbia avenue
and Hudson Terrace. He has two boys
attending the public schools, one, Don
aid Agnew, age 13, and Arthur Agnew,
Jr 10.
Mrs. Agnew laughingly said that
since the Judge first went to the
State Legislature his home hardly
knows him; that she hopes he will
soon resign some of his many cares
to others, that he may enjoy his fam
lily and home. Her main interests in
life are the welfare of the Judge and
her two boys.
