HOsU TO make

Spread about one quarter of
the berries on their sides In

AMENDMENTS MADE
 ID AIR CONVENTION
Serta Proposals Made to Close ArVays Near Panama Canal

Havana. Jan. 2o UP)-Plans of tho United States to close certain air areaways as a safeguard to the Panama Canal, which caused spirit ed debate before the communica- tions committee Of the sixth Pan American conference. now are before a special subsidiary group. Seven Proposals Made The proposals were made in the form of seven amendments to the Pan-American unions air conven- tion by Henry P. Fletcher, United States ambassador to Italy.
 The principal modification WAS one permitting any two states, which had signed the convention. to agree on what areas should be pro- hibited to aircraft within the boun- daries of their states. It WAS pointed out this measure could 4. be taken either as ! means ,fol. public safety or for military. .purposek Columbian OrGpsttton pr. Enrique Claye errera, presi- dent of the Cosouah n delegation immediately, opposed. he suggestion He said the amendment might be construed as permitting military al. dances between netghboring states.
 The ideals of this convention Herrera said, ''ars the development of peace and amity by facilitating inter-American aerial communica- ton and not to provide for military emergencies. No one here is asking to ny near prohibited zones or for tified areas. No one is asking for av- iatton bases. The only thing that private companies are seeking is the right to land in public airports." ThEeat to Aviation The Colombian delegate said in an interview that there was threat to commercial aviation in the pro- posed amendmens offered by Fletcher.
 Under the proposals Of the United States delegation there would be nothing to prevent any state from declaring its entire territory q pro- hibited area" Herrera told the
 
 United Press.
 There can not be any interna- tional commercial aviation between North and South America if Pana- ma and the Canal Zone are closed areas for commercial planes. The vital point, according to my view. is that any. agreement aecting. com mercial aviation between the two continents should recognize the rights to take all precautions neces- sary for military protection, but misrepresentation should not go % far as to close the way for air craft in peaceful transit"
 The communication committee re- erred the amendments to a subsid- iary group composed of Fletcher and Herrera.

BYRD TO EXPLAIN SOUTH POLE TRIP
Airman Also to Tel of Hop
 Across Atlantic

'The Atlantic and Other Flights is the subject of Commander RicA- ard E. Byrd's lecture when he comes to the Strand theater on Sunday, February at 2:3O p. m. In this new and populac talk Commander Byrd will tell the story of hts flight in the America to France: thrill his audience with his dash to the north pole: show the motion pie ures of all his flights including those made in Greenland with the Mac Milan expedition and tell of his plans for the next expedition which he is preparing for the south pole.
 Commander Byrd's next great un- dertaking-his aerial expedition to the south pola-is now forming, and those who assisted him with the preparations for the north pole dash and the flight across the Atlantic confess themselves amazed at the dimensional breadth of this impend- ing expedition to the bottom of the world" Commander Byrd will build tiay city on the rim of the bleak Anarctic continent as a base for his flight to the pole. The tiny city will rise only by endeavor. It will be a base and will comprise portable houses, machine shops, ra- dio station, airdrome and food and fuel depots. When Commander Byrd comes here he will outline thesc plans to his audience. When he leaves this country this year he will know that thousands of his country men will be aware of just what he is doing to a far greater extent than any previous expedition of his or any other man, has ever known.
 The story of the earlier flights is interesting and Commander Byrd shows picture taken in practically every famous flight he has made. He Is an excellent speaker. modeE as gallant adventurer should be and with a charm of manner tha: has endeared him to every audience he has ever addressed. Commander Byrd is assured a warm welcome.
