Dcnenl's Statement.

Washington, March 27 R1Sena- tor Dencen of Illinois, attributes the bombing of his home in Chicago last night 10 the political fight in pro- gross there now for control of the Cook county republican machine.
 In my judgement" he said here today, 'the bombing of my home last night is the work of the organ- ized and protected criminal classes of Chicago and Cook county in their desperate effort to retain political control of the city and county"
 The Illinois senator learned of the bombing while en route to Washing ton from Chicago.
 No warning was given, he said.

JlCnn,i on Motor


 New York, March c7 Hp-The lives of three Germans. who are gambling with death in attempting a transatlantic flight. depend upon the performance Of their planes motor The motor, of twelve cylln- ders, Wrested the worlds endurance flight record from America last year in flight Of 52 1-a hours.
 There are no safety devices aboard such as swimming belts. rubber boats and emergency rations. and no radio is being carried to keep the plane in touch with the world once the start IS made for New York. A pistol wrapped in oil cloth, is be- ing taken in place of safety devices.

 Owner Is Passenger
 The plane is owned by Baron Ehrenfried Gunther Won Huenfeld, who travels as passenger. To buy it he gave the last pfennig of his personal fortune and borrowed from l4 friends enough 10 make up the $50, 900 required to cover it's cost and insurance.
 The plane with the baron aboard attempted nonstop flight from Dessau, Germany, to America on August 15, 1927, but after encoun- tering gales it returned to its start ing place having flown co hours. Captain Herman Koohl was pilot on that flight as on this one, with Captain Friedrich Loose.
 On it's silrery gray sides it carries the name Bremen" and the govern ment license number "l197.' On the ruddor is the dagger shaped em- blem of the Junkcrs Airplane com- pany.
 All Metal Plane
 The Bremen is a low winged all metal monoplane. being made of Ca patented aluminium alloyp. It's wing spread is 55 feet and it's fusclage 35 feet long. The .Junkers T.-5 water cooled motor de- velops a maximum of s60 horse power. The Bremen can fly 130 miles an hour although 90 miles an hour is regarded as the most cco- speed for an ocean flight. I The motor uses between 15 and IS gallons of gasoline an hour. It was installed in the Bremen after being used by the planes sister ship Europa in establishing the duration flight record.
 The ship carries o,5oo pounds Of bcnzol, primed with ether. This is thought to be sufficient fuel to keep if in the air for 40 to 45 hours, giv- ing a flying radius Of about 45oo miles, which is approximately 1.ooo miles more than the distance from Dublin to New York
 The Junkers planes arc inc most that Germany has turned out for passenger and long distance flying. They have a thick wing, giv- ing them q high lift. The wings arc nf full cantilcNor type and there is f no outside hracinE to offer wind re- sis'ance and cut down the speed. l The Bremen is similar 10 the planes used in passenger and freight serv- l ice in Germany on the Luf,hansa i lines.

Declares.

John Lewis Smith. president Of the
Hoover and Curtis Club, in statement
issued yesterday denied that Harlan
Wood, department commander of the
American Legion. was "tricked into the
embarrassing and false position of CALL
ing upon Hoover as loyal supporter,
when as a matter of fact he is not for
Hoover" as charged by Richard Seelye
Jones, District chairman of the vete-
rams organisations of the Democratic
national committee.
Mr.. Smith. who arranged the recent
conference of eX-service men with Mr..
Hoover. explained the circumstances of
the visit and answered particularly the
charge that Mr. Wood was induced
to attend by the "chicanery and
ineptitude" of the Republican man.

certain veterans of the Civil Spanish
and World Wars, all of whom I had
been informed had expressed themselves
as being for Mr.. Hoover. to attend and
ascertain his views on veteran matters.
Senator Means, as veteran of two
wars. was requested by me to respond
to the address of Mr. Hoover, and he
expressly stated that they were not
there in their official capacities, but as
veterans expressing only their individual
opinions.
1T is significant that none of those

was made has at any time questioned
the fact that it represented the senti-

ASKS ENFORCEMENT
OF 1.HOUR PARKING
D. c. Auto Group Sees Solution OF
Congestion on F and G
Streets.

Taking issue with the proposal to ban
parking on F and G streets between
and 6 o'clock in the afternoon. the Dis
trict of Columbia division OF the Amer
lean Automobile Association yesterday
placed before the Commissioners re-
quest that the strict enforcement OF
one-hour parking will have the desired
effect of eliminating congestion Oh
these thoroughfares.
In a letter signed by Theodore P.
Moves, chairman of the advisory board
of the District division. the Commits
sioners were informed that the board
at its September meeting adopted q
resolution definitely opposing such a
stringent measure at this time. because
it feels that the parking problem In the
District of Columbia has not reached
the stage where it is necessary to. take
this step"
I'VE think that the strict enforce
ment of the one-hour parking pro-
vision" the letter continued. will tend
to eliminate the objections which have
been raised of the congestion on F
street during the hours mentioned"

proceed to that station. These figures
show that there are many junior Navy
officers fully qualified for this training
who have not applied.
The class of 1926 was the first class
to receive preliminary training at
Hampton Roads or San Diego during
the Summer following graduation at
the Naval Academy or during the fol-
lowing year. Here, again, are many
junior officers fully qualified for this
training who have not applied for 1t.
Out of the class of 1926 there are 387
remaining in the line of the Navy. of
which number IS have been ordered to
Pensacola for training, ID are awaiting
orders, 4 applicants have not received
report of examination, which is per-
centage OF rs. Nm the case of enlisted
men the percentage of volunteers who
fail to pass the requisite physical ex-
animation or are temperamentally not
adapted for aviation training is abnor-
mally high Likewise the percentage
OF those who fail to pass the prellml-
nary practical test for assignment to
Pensacola is high. and of those who
reached Pensacola only from 10 to 20
per cent completed the course success
fully. approximately one man out of
each 100 who applies becomes an avla-
ton pilot. In the absence of greater
service response to the service needs
for additional officers and men for
training at Pensacola it will be impos-
sible to supply the operating forces
with the urgently needed qualified off,
GERS and men for flying duty.
The selection board for the Dental
Corps has been appointed. to convene
October 8, to select not more than 10
officers of that corps for promotion to
the rank of commander. The senior 10
