MAN WON
 VOTE BET, HE SAYS
Seattle Times)

The San Francisco News today carried an interview with Capt. Sidney Harrington. Seattle steaTi. ship owner and adventurer, tell ing how he took San Francisco for $15O,00O at the recent munich pal election.
 According to The News, Cap tain Harrington denied he hired "peepers" or was assisted in any way by agents selling the voting machines used inx the election ill making the betting coup.
 Captaip Harrington was quotei as saying he and two partnefc and several Seattle people bet $105, ,000 on the election and won about $15O,0O0. His end of tho winnings was said to be $55,Coo Tor $60.OO0.
 The News quoted Captain Bar rington as follows:
 "We decided to bet on the San Francisco election about two months ago. sent my agent down here. He made all tho preparations. did not leavo Wrangell, Alaska. my home, un- til October 8. Most of the work had been done by then. My agents came down here and at 6nce began to make survey of public opinion.
 We sent out some 10000 let ters to voters seeking an expres- sion of opinion. We did not ask them to tell us who they would vote for, we merely asked who, in their opinion. would be elected. Our letters were written so that they were in no way partisan.
 q don't know how many re- plies we got, but we heard from 1t least 10000 persons represent ing every walk of life"
 Captain Harrington then relat- ed, according to The News. that lie based his bets on the opin- ions set forth in the letters.

spection, registration and licens- ing of aircraft, ths cxaminatio. and licensing of pilots and me chanics, the identification of all aircraft not licensed, and the pro :sin.gation of air traffic rules.
 AIT Rsnulat.oss
 One of the first steps taken by tho Aercnautlcs Branch was the promulgation of air regulations and the appointment of expert enced aircraft and engine inspec- tors to form the nucleus of 8 force which within a year is ex- pecfed to reach fifty. A medical director was named to organize the work of giving physical ex- aminations to pilots and appli- cants for pilots licenses and about 200 physicians at various points throughout the country were designated as medical ex- aminers. Ten new airplanes were purchased or contracted for, of which five have been placed in operation. At the close of the ifs. cal year work of examining appli- cants for licenses was proceeding but not ell the air,nen in taa country had applied for l.ccn . and applications had been sub mitsod for only small portion of the aircraft in operation. The requirements of the department, it is pointed out, are not yet fully understood and many operators will probably delay application until the departments represen- tatives get in personal touch with them in the field. It is estimated that additional civil planes are now being placed in operation a. the rate of over 100 month which, will increase the problem D.ipgng all civil craft and their operating perscnnsl undar the system of registration and h spection.

As a result of it's work the Bureau feels that these three items of its radio program are ready for ac- tual trial in daily use on airways.

Soper yesterday criticised officials OF
the State Of Maryland for declining 70
permit police to assist in enforcing the

The criticism was made from the
bench in United States Court, during
rebuke of James A. Mccarthy, an at
torney, who told jury that "the peo.
ple of Maryland do not believe in the
Volstead law anyway" The defend
ant was fined $150 in that case and
Mccarthy was ordered to appear for
possible contempt proceedings because
of this and other statements. The
lawyers apology was accepted, after
Judge Soper told him that personal
opinion conferred no right to ignore
the law.
Judge Soper said one consideration
for the attorney was that 'in this
community State officials not only de-
cline to permit the police to assist the
prosecution of this law, but they also
decline to enforce the law of the State
of Maryland, which Is still in effect"
This reference was to State laws regu-

GOVERNOR SMITH
HITS ESTATE TAX
Reiterates Opposition to Fed

State Rights.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, November 11.--Oppo
sition to the Federal estate tax law
''as matter of State rights" was re
/ iterated by Gov. Alfred T.. Smith in a
letter made public yesterday.
The governors letter was in answer
/ to one sent him a few weeks ago by
Charles T. Gwynne, executive vice
president of the Chamber of Com
merce of the State of New York. in
which the chief executive of the State
was asked to make known his position
with respect to repeal of the Federal
estate tax.
Urged Abandonment i'm Years.
Gwynne wrote that his letter was
prompted by reports that Mark
Graves, State tax commissioner. had
stated that Gov. Smith and the State
Tax Commission were in favor of the
present Federal estate tax law; also,
that the governor had later written
Assemblyman Louis A. Cuvillier to the
effect that he the governor had taken
no position on the question.
Gov. Smith pointed out in his reply
that his position was correctly stated
bv Tax Commissioner Graves at n
hearing in 1925 before the ways and
means committee of Congress. when
Graves said that the Tax Commission
of the State and the governor believed
that the Federal Government should
abandon the field of estate taxation
! "at the end of siX-year period. which
would make the date of abandonment
