GIVE TROPHY TO
MARINE AVIATOR,
WORLDS EST
Flies 100000 Miles Without
MiShap-Near Crash on
Winning Day.
BIZ NEA Serrice

BIZ NEA Serrice
SAN DIEGO, Cal, Oct. 12.-Meet
the worlds safest aviator-Capt. H.
D. Campbell of the United States
Marine Flying Corps.
He has flown $500 hours-proba.
bly, 100000 miles-since he became
an aviator in 1921, with a perfect
record of safe flights and landings.
In the last year he has been in the
air $40 hours without a crack-up.
Captain Campbell recently won the
Herbert Schiff memorial trophy for
his excellence as a safe pilot. Now
he's preparing to fly to Washington,
where President Coolidge will hand
him the trophy.
A VeT1nOnter
The f1ier will accept the award
from the President with keen appre-
citation Of the honor, for both hail
from Vermont.
BY his remarkable record. Captain
Campbell becomes known as the SAT-
est aviator in the world. And,
strangely enough, on the very day
he learned that he was awarded the
trophy, he nearly marred his rec
ord by a forced landing in the nouns
tains east of here.
Captain Campbell, with a party of
other marine aviators, was cruising
about. Suddenly his motor slowed,
and continued to turn more slowly,
until he fioated near the mountain.
Just as he was about to Crack" the
motor suddenly took life and all was
we'll A carburetor float had stuck,
and became free just in time to save
ship and pilot.
Record Unrivaled
The record that Captain Campbell
made during the last year is a
worlds mark, for no airman in the
service of any other nation has as
yet so many hours in the air with
out a crash to his credit.
The marine f1ier first entered avi-
alton as a student at Pensacola, Fla,
in 1921, and a year later was an in
structor in aviation at various ma
rine bases.
Previously he had served with the
famous marine second division in
the Verdun trenches, at Belleau
wood and in neavly all other major
offensives after the United States
entered the war.
Captain Campbell was the first to
organize an air mail service from
Santa Barbara after the 1925 earth
quake
Expert Gunner
In addition to winning the safety
trophy, he has been highly COM
mended by the Secretary of the Navy
for making the highest free machine
gun score from a field of 400 con-
testants. He made ninety three hits
out Of "A possible ninety-seven in
nine seconds at ninety miles an hour.
Later he made a perfect bombing
record when he scored four direct
hits out of four bombs dropped 1000
feet. During the recent aviation
meet at Denver, marine air forces,
under Captain Campbell's command,
received prizes for the best forma-
ton flying and landing.

WOULD CURB REPORTS.
Texas Representatives. Bill Deals
With Cotton Forecasts.

Discontinuance of cotton acreage
forecasts based on farmers intentions
to plant would be required of the De-
partment of Agriculture under bill
introduced yesterday by Representa-
tive Black, Democrat, Texas.
In addition the measure would pre-
vent the Secretary of Agriculture
from forecasting production prior to
September l. and would stipulate that
monthly condition reports be released
simultaneously with Census Bureau
ginning reports.
Condition and progress reports on
the cotton crop would be permitted
by the bill on the first of each month
from August to December, but before
release by the Secretary they would
first be scrutinized and approved by
a cotton-crop reporting committee.
The committee would consist of five
or more members selected by the Sec
retary, three of them being supervis-
ing field statisticians of the depart
ment located in the cotton belt.

1.-THE effect to be that the borrower
unds are to go into the property first
md the proceeds of the first mortgage
bonds to go in last, so that the trus'
tee will, when starting to pay out
funds, have sufficient on hand to com
plete the building.

"5. The trustee will deliver the
bonds to the concern or house selllng
them only upon payment OF me agreed
purchase price per bond. The eitect
to be that the selling concern will not
receive commissions or profits until
the bonds are sold.
"6. In the event permanent bonds
are not Immediately available FOR ue-
livery, the temporary instrument must
be one executed by the borrower and
trustee, and not an instrument or the
concern or firm selling the bonds.
az. All payments for interest and
sinking fund are to be made by the
borrower direct to the trustee. The
effect to be that the trustee will Lot
pay interest or bonds when due II ne
of it has not received the funds from
The borrower"
These rules constitute an honest
attempt to meet a delicate situation,
but have the limitations of inf1exl-
bility.
Buyers of real estate bonds ought
to demand periodical reports of the
earnings of the property financed.
Investors in other types Of corporate
bonds get this information as a
matter of course. One OF the Chicago
real estate firms has taken the leader
ship in giving such data to their
clients.

GOVERNMENT COTTON
HOLDING FIRM URGED
Representative Langford's Bill
Proposes $500, 100000 Corpora
ton to Aid Farmers. .
By the Associated Press.

.
Formation Of a Federal cotton cor
poration, with capital stock of $780,
100000, with authority to fix mini
mum price of cotton. was proposed in
a bill offered yesterday in the House
by Representative Langford, Demo
crat, Georgia.
The measure is designed In way
along lines of the McNary- Haugen
farm relief bill, except that no pro-
vision is made for a surplus.
The bill would enable the corpora
ton, composed of the Secretary Of Ag-
riculture and six directors appointed
by the President from recommends
tions by governors of cotton growing
States, to issue stocks and notes up to
So, ,0OO, 900, 900. With these funds the
directors would be authorized to buy
up for cash short staple cotton on a.
basis of good middling at % cents per
pound and other grades at proper
tionate prices.
While the bill makes no provision
for taking care of the surplus, il d.
