BINGHAM OPPOSES l DIRIG|bLES ONLAND
Has Ns,Mo for Illinois Gas
 Holder StiCkm Out
.uY GtoRcB H. MANNING

twsshingten Bureau of the ". B. Hsssldl
 Washington, D. C.. Feb. s-Srna- tor Hiram Bingham of Connecticut does not believe in the use of dirig- ibles over land, and has made the senate concur in his objections.
 He proposed an amendment to the bill authorizing construction at mili- tary posts. to strike out the provi- sion authorizing an appropriation of s49.500 to build a hydrogen gas holder at Scott Field. Ill.,. and the senate voted to concur in his amend ment.
 The bill now goes to conference between the senate and the house of representatives.
 In proposing his amendment, Sem ator Bingham. a member of the sen- ate military affairs committee. an aviator, and lieutenant colonel in charge of flying school in France during the World war, said:
 While I am very strong be- liever in dirigibles for service over water and I hope to see the day come within . year or less when we can have dirigles crossing tho Allan tic ocean on passenger. and mall service, and while l believe fully in the navy's program for dirigibles. and shall be glad to see 1t expanded still further, I am entirely uncon- vinced of the necessity of the army operating lighter -than-air craft over land.
 "They can operate heavier-than- air craft at least three times as fast and much more efficiently, and more safely, and they can be operated in all kinds of weather when lighter than-air craft cannot be operated. It seems to me a waste of money to authorize appropriations or to sp- propriate for lighter-than-air craft in the army.
 Therefore. I move that the item be stricken out"
 And it was stricken out by the senate.

WOMEN'S HATS ID
 BE ELABORATE NOW
Decree Is for Change From Small
 ClOChe Affair

New York. Feb. , (UP)-The small cloche hat, the reigning favor- ite among feminine chapeaux for months, will be superseded this spring and summer by more elab- crate creations.
 Arbiters of fashion In women's headgear. at 8 display sponsored by the Retail Millinery Association of America. expressed . belief today that the bell-shaped hat. which heretofore hah adapted itself suit. ably to almost any occasion. is losing favor.
 "A hat for every occasion" is the new slogan of milliners.
 The so-called 'occasional" hats strike a fancier and more feminine note in women's fashions. Almost every conceivable chapeau type is represented, from the brimless toque to the we'll brimmed profile" model.
 The open forehead motif and the profile hat were most conspicuous, The former is more or less we'll known, but the latter embodies a new idea. It has wide, irregular brim at the right side which out lines the profile; hence the name.
 Brimless hats henceforth will be restricted almost entirely to town wear. One of the smartest on dis play was a small black toque Of cellophane with nose veil. The large resort hat will be of white felt and invariably a capeline. For the midsummer afternoon dress of gray there will be 8 large gray tuscan af- fair with brim and crown entirely covered with delicate gray lace and silver thread embroidery, and trim med with a band of silver ribbon.
 Red. for early spring, and gray, black and white for summer will be the prevailing hues. together with the natural straws.
 Both colors and fabrics will be varied, however. the latter including ballibunti. cellophane. bakou, erin. leghorne, tuscan, felt and taffeta.

'nUSI PAY BILL FDR 'GIn IN INSTITUTION
Fdb9 oldasd to Settle for
 Dll6htsr's Keep in Home

Joseph Landino. aged 51. of 511 Church street. was before Judge M. D. saxe in police court today on the charge of failing to support his daughter. who is in an institution. and he was ordered to make ar- rangements to begin payment on bill of $16109 within the next two weeks under penalty of being or dered to post bond or go to jail. Landino pleaded inability to pay and said he has been working infrequent- ly. He is capable of earning $40 weekly as a woodworker but it is some time since he has had full weeks employment. he said. Judge Sake ordered the case continued for two weeks and in the meantime. Probation Officer Connolly will de- termine Landino's average earnings
 Miss Ruth Bristoll, woman pro- hation officer. and Probation Officer Connolly, testified that Landino had refused to contribute towards the support of his daughter. She was taken from his custody because he was found unfit to have her in his charge. and he was ordered by Judge Roche in juvenile court to pay $ . week for her support. To date he has not paid anything and ef- forts to have him do so have been fruitless. according to the testimony.
 Adolph kalinowski. aged S4. of 1ss Winter street. pleaded guilty to the charge of drunkenness and not guilty to the charge of breach of the peace. He was arrested about 5; 4a last evening by Officer E. B. kiely on complaint Of Mrs kallnovshl, who testified that he was intoxicated and made disturbance at home.
 He attacked her when she came home from work at noon. striking her about the head, and she called , policeman who quieted him. In the evening he attacked her again and she had him arrested.
 Judge saxe questioned Mrs, kal- inowski as to whether or not she thought her husband would behave i. given another chance, as she had begged him out of the state farm the last time.
 She replied that she did not know what he would do. He supported his family when he worked. she said.
 kalinowski blamed his wife for the trouble She gives him llquor on which he becomes intoxicated and she also drinks to excess, he said he wanted 10 abstain and work steadily but hts wife does not do her share towards keeping peace in the household.
 Jure Saye imposed suspended iall sentence Of 30 days and told Kalinowski he will not be given an other chance,
 Every e4ort has been made by the authorities to help him. Judge saxe said, and hts police court record IS altogether too long Calling Mrs, lalinowski to the witness stand. Judge Sake told her she must help her husband and If his accusations re true she is partly to blame for his frequent appearance in court She denied it emphatically,
 Judge saxe told her she will lose her husband for 4 long time if con ditions at home do not improve There are three children in the fam lily, aged !. ! and 3h years,
