Special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, July 29.-The stock
market was more uneven in its move
ment today than it has been in some
time and reflected more of di-
vision of sentiment. Some houses
which had been bullish all along were
inclined to take the other side, while
other houses continued To look for
higher prices. As these conflicting ad-
vices were sent out. they produced a
mixture of buying and selling which
plainly showed in the price f1uctua-
ton.

Our Air Policy.

Naval air pilots insisted in testi-
mony given before the presidents
aircraft investigation board, that
the United States would make no
progress in aircraft until separate
department is created and is con
troled by practical airmen.
This has been the complaint for
years against the war and navy de-
partments that civilians appointed
for political reasons and given pow
er to control the military and naval
branches Of the government, could
not be expected to produce the best
results.
If an aircraft department is
brought into being and an exper-
fenced airman given authority, it
would be a radical change in policy
by the government, and manifestly
a similar policy would have to be
followed in the army and navy sec
tions Of the national defense.
Placing trained men in authority
will not settle the controversy that
IS constantly arising over our mill
tary, naval and air policies.
The investigation, however will
tend to clarity the situation and
may be Of some value It has at
least eveloped one fact, namely,
that both the army and navy did not
receive the amount of money asked
for when their appropriations were
before congress. This resulted in
curtailment of the naval air pro
gram.
Regardless Of who may head any
or all of the national defense de-
partments, nothing constructive can
be accomplished without the full
cooperation Of congress.
