Army and Navy officials are divided
in their opinions as to whether Pr3si-
dent Coolidge can hestow the Dis
tinguished Flying Cross upon Clar-
ence y. Chamberlin for his flight from
New York to Germany, as he eX-
pressed the desire to do.
According to Assistant Secretary
for Aeronautics Warner of the Navy,
the law is plain that the cross could
be awarded only to a flyer on active
duty with the Army or Navy, Ma
tional Guard or Reserve Corps. Since
Chamberlin was attached to none of
these services at the time of his
fight, Mr.. Warner believes he could
not qualify for the cross.
On the other hand, some Army of
fcials ventured a Curbstone opinion
that the Chief Executive could exer-
else his authority as Commander-in-
Chief of the Nations armed forces
and award the cross to Chamberlin,
who was commissioned a colonel in
the Iowa National Guard upon his re-
turn to the United States.
Warner said naturally every one
would like to see Chamberlin receive
the high award for his flight as they
also would like to see the Distinguish

Business activity in the Pacific.
Southwest territory has shown 10
pronounced change during 6eptom-
bcr. The general situation is un.
even, with some indices presenting
indications of the beginnings of a
recovery from the recession of the
spring and summer months, and 9th
er items remaining unseasonally low.
On the whole, there are compara-
lively few fundamentally unsound
factors that are unfavorahle to the
increase in trade which usually oc-
ours in the fall months.
This is the Introductory paragraph
Of the monthly summary of condi-
tions in the Pacific Southwest terri
tory compiled by the Research De-
partment Of the Los Angeles First
National Trust & Savings Bank and
the First Securities Co., and releas-
cd for publication today. The sum
mary continues in part:
The volume of business in the ag.
gregate still remains large. Trad
ing at reatil and wholesale has reg
istered decided Improvement from
the low point of July, due largely to
strenuous sales efforts. Industrial
operations remain fairly satisfac-
tory. The furniture, clothing, and
iron and steel industries have been
reasonably active, while production
ia fruit and fish canning, motion
pictures, and oil we'll supply lines
has been in less volume than usual.
Building Continues
Building permits continue large in
number and value, but an unsound
vacancy condition exists in certain
classes of structures, noticeably a.
partments. Production and ship
ments of petroleum have increased
over comparative periods and stocks
again are lower.
Total bank clearings in Los An
ecies for September were slightly
less than in August, whereas mol
crate increase ordinarily occurs at
tlis season. September clearings
were more than 6 per cent under
