scientific progress Russia has made.
both in radio and aviation. and as L
watched the Russians, fencing adrolt-
lv with the other delegates, / realized
that Russia undoubtedly will be the
focus of most of the important air
adjustments in Europe for a long
time to come.
The French delegates eloquently
propounded the doctrine Of freedom
of the air. The Russians were all
for freedom of the air. but ! gathered
that by this they meant unlimited
use of the air for their particular
world propaganda.
The outcome of this discussion was.
I believe, of the utmost importance
in it's bearing on the later more def
mite formulation of laws defining and
limiting rights to the use of the ether.
An old legal maxim of tenancy. in
which the owner of land possesses
rights in the earth below and the
air above, was cited in defense of re-
strictions on broadcasting.
Control OF Air Show.
Satisfying legal precedents were
produced to show that the inability
OF the land owner to occupy or pos
sess the air opens it to the sovereignty
OF the state. Inc reSoIutlon OH tHiS
subject finally adopted by the con-
ference follows:
THE congress expresses the hope
that the utilization of the electromaG'
uetic waves at radio frequencies shall
be free. but the application Of the
principle of freedom shall be without
prejudice to the right of each indi-
vidual state to regulate and control" "
This, of course. is merely broad
statement of agreement on an under
lying principle. and provides no solu:

While Russia has notable scientific

Preliminary to Farley Here.

This conference. attended by repre-

Japan and America, was preliminary
to the world conference which Will be
held in Washington in October.
The short wave length has ended
Americas isolation, so far as the air
is concerned Until about three years
ago long-range broadcasting was al
most entirely on long wave lengths.
The discovery of the carrying power
and dependability of the shorter wave
length has brought the nations of the
world closer together and made i'm
peratiye new metes and bounds in the
ether.
Russia is the Y in the equation of
International radio adjustments. Main
tanning so of the $50 great radio sta
tions of Europe. with a higher output
power than the others, Russia is under
the charge of using radio to deluge the
world with propaganda assailing other
governments and spreading the doc
trines of Communism.
1t has been accused of this, particu-
larly, in supposed attempts to subvert
public opinion in the British coal
strike and in reaching Rumania with
attacks on the Rumanian government.

Court Rules She Expected Death
When She Created 90 Indi-

ST. PAUL. Mimi, April Heirs
of the late Mary T. Hill, widow of
James J. Hill, the empire builder. "
yesterday lost their suit to recover
$4,141 SIT in inheritance taxes paid
the Federal Government since 1922.
Federal Judge J. w. Molyneaux
held Mrs. Hill expected her death in
creating 20 individual trust funds for
her beneflciaries.
The court granted the heirs $9,50S,
with interest at 6 per cent from May
5, 1926, as an overcharge in determin-
ing the expense of administering the
estate.
Principal arguments in the suit
were on the question of whether Mrs.
Hill contemplated death when she es-
tablished trust funds for her nine
children, five grandchildren, four
charitable institutions and two other
beneficiaries. She died in 1921.

eliminates of President Coolidge are
Inclined to feel that if the Citizens
Associations of the District, together
with individual citizens, are sufficient
ly anxious to have Maj. w. r. f.
Covell. now assistant Engineer Com
missioner, assigned to succeed Lieut..
Col. j. Franklin Bell as Engineer Com
missioner, he will be given the as
Signment.
Although President Coolidge has
virtually given no thought to the as
signment of an engineer officer of the
Army to take Col. Bells place, he has
animated that he would be happy to
do anything within reason to crafty
the desires of the citizens.
President Makes No Comment.
In this connection it was pointed out
that the President may feel that he
caused some disappointment by ignor-
ing recommendations of the citizens
associations when he recently appoint
ted the Public Utilities Commission
and the peoples counsel for that COM
mission, and as a result of this he
might now be of mind to get behind
Maj. Covell if he is convinced the peo-
pie of Washington prefer him to any
other officer at this time.
The President, however, has maae
matter up with Maj. Gen. Edgar Jad-
wine, chief of Engineers, u. S. A,
who will make the assignment after
receiving the approval of the Presi-
dent.
