The Tennessean. Nashville, Tenn:
1T is vet too early to select the
next meeting place for the Democratic
national convention. The Importance
OF the location of the convention in
shaping the destiny of the party has
always been overemphasiZed. The
convenience of the largest number of
delegates should prove the first CON
sideration. For that reason we have
always believed that the convention
should be held as close as possible to
the center Of population. 1T seems to
us that st. Louis or Chicago come
nearer meeting that requisite than
any other cities having adequate con.
vention facilities.

COL. MITCHELL
IN AIR ROW

Col. William Mitchell, former as
sistant chief of the Army air serv-
ice, served notice on the Secretary
of Commerce late yesterday that he
is keeping close tab on the depart
ment's attitude toward civilian
fliers, and that he is going to reg
lister a vigorous protest il they
seek to "manhandle" them.
The former stormy petrol of the
air service appeared as an expert
witness in the case of Steuart A.
Reiss. former flier of Hoover Field,
who Is under a three months sus-
pension and made subject 10 a $500
fine for low flying that resulted in
the death of pony which was on
the runway of the field.
Attorney Jesse Duke, counsel for
Reiss, today is preparing his brief
which will be filed with the re-
port of the hearing. The entire
matter will tomorrow go to Sec
rotary of Commerce Hoover. Testi-
mony was taken before Assistant
Secretary OF Commerce William p.
McCracken, but Mr. Hoover will
nave to pass Judgment.
Colonel MitChell's contentious NAV
be summed up briefly as follows;
The Department of Commerce is
without Jurisdiction in interstate
flying. Each State should control
it's own flVing fields
NO Federal bureau can enforce
any local law: it never did and
never will.
The com m cree Department
should not attempt to lock up"
aviation as the Army and Navy
have done-that is why we are be
hind the world today. We haven't
even got a plane to carry passcn-
gers from New York to San Fran
cisco.
1T is a cruel and inhuman thing
to fine a filler $500 for killing
pony-men will he afraid to become
filters. No other department of the
Government has made such an at
tempt to control the actions of
private citizens.
Other nations. using the air
forces developed by the World War
as nucleus. built up powerful or
ganiZa tons. while the United states
destroyed the air organizations the
war developed.
Men in charge OF aviation in 'he
Government bureaus today know
nothing of aviation and it will be
many years before we have men
