SENATE BURIED
IN FINAL RUSH
Late Bills Pile Up, Calling
for Night Sessions.
BY KENNETH CRAWFORD
United Press staff Correspondent

united Press stan correspondent
WASHINGTON, May 16.-The
usual twelfth-hour jam of unfn-
ished business piled up in the
Senate today, as leaders prepared
for adjournment May 26.
Tax reduction and Boulder Dam
bills, conference reports on the
Jones shipping bill, and the Nc
Nary -Haugen farm relief bill, and
scores of less important measures
claimed attention.
All important amendments to the
tax reduction bill have been dis
posed of except one by Senator
Bingham Rep0 Connecticut, pro-
viding for repeal of the Federal es-
tate tax.
Senator Borah (Rep) Idaho, re-
qucsted that the amendment be
withdrawn to save time, but Bing-
ham refused, and it will probably be
debated at length. Borah predicted
the discussion would consume two
or three days.
The tax bill was temporarily laid
aside late Tuesday for considera-
ton OF the conference report on the
Jones bill. This had not been eX-
pected to require more than an
hour, but Senator Blaine (Rep)
Wisconsin, objected to hasty action.
Senator McNary (Rep) Oregon,
announced early this week that he
would seek adoption of the confer
ence report on the farm bill before
Saturday. This is expected to pass
without prolonged debate.
The Senate will meet at II a. m,
one hour in advance of the usual
time, today, and start holding reg
ular night sessions next week.

PREDICT RISE

This SUMMER
Dealers Say Increase in
Quotations on Hides
Is Responsible.
ADVISE EARLY BUYING
Increase of ST Expected by
September, Local Re-
taller States.

Do your shoe shopping soon. This
seems to be safe counsel for Hoosiers
to follow.
Already ultimatuns have been is
sued by leading shoe manufacturers
declaring that prices will soar this
fall and winter Their predictions
are based on steadily rising prices
of hides.
Hide dealers here are inclined to
accept the prospect Of a continued
price rise. Shoe retailers are di-
vided regarding the immediate eff
feet on the local market. They
agree that if hides continues to in
crease in cost, the result will be re-
f1ected in the shoe market and to
buy at the present prices is sound
investment.
Predict Two Year Rise
Harry WE'LL, manager of the hide
business of E. Raugh & Sons, SIT
Ray St., asserts that hides will ad-
vance for the next two years. He
points out that prices are about
double those of the same period in
1927.
He agreed with the statements of
President Frank G. Rand of the In
ternational Shoe Company, quoted
in United Press dispatches from st.
Louis.
Rand declared that the greatest
price increase in recent years will be
made in the shoe market this year.
Current retail prices are below man
ufacturing cost and the hide market
is constantly advancing, he said.
Shortage of Cattle
The economic reasons for this ad-
vance in hide prices, WE'LL con-
tended, is the world scarcity of
cattle.
During the war cattle production
reached its peak and so did hide
prices. When the bottom dropped
out of the market many stock rails
ers quit the business, making an
actual scarcity Of production today.
ton can be sufficiently increased to
meet the demands and steady the
market. In the meantime prices are
bound to move upward, affecting
the shoe business and all other
leather trades"
Production Decreases
Low hide prices, following the
war years, he attributed to the
slackening demand for leather.
mot a great deal of leather is re-
quired for harness, saddles and the
like, as compared to some years
ago." WE'LL pointed out. "Then the
old-fashioned automobiles took
large quantity for upholstering
seats, particularly in the open cars.
"Now almost everything is closed
type and the upholstering is done
with fabrics.
1.-The production decrease has
been much greater than this de-
crease in demand however"

S. M. Gusdorf g. Co., 302 S.
Harding St., hide dealers, declared
that they also look for a steady ris-
ing hide market, but no phenomenal
or aDrupG increases.
G. E. Young, manager of
Strauss g. Company shoe depart
ment, agreed heartily with the
Rand statement regarding the shoe
market outlook.
"It is likely that all shoes will ad-
vance ST a pair by fall" Young as
serted. "The winter market is
bound to be higher"
Manager Arthur Brown of the
Marott shoe store stated that in his
opinion the retail market will not
be preatly effected for some months.
Dealers have quite generally con-
tracted for their fall supplies and
while there has been an advance in
certain numbers no great price in
crease will result

loose Practice" May Deter

Joyce Asserts.
By the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press,
Temple Joyce, a representative of the
Chance Vought Corporation. declared
IN a statement to the Associated Press
today that much doubt exists among
American aviation forces in France
reported speed Of recently made all
records in Italy.
Mr.. Joyce. who was q major in the
American Aviation Forces in France
during the World War, made the state
ment after conferences here with a
number of American racing pilots and
acronautical engineers,
The rapidity with which these rec
ords have been successfully broken,
amounting 10 three new records in
almost as many months, though posi-
bic. seems very improbable when an ap-
probation Of the engineering problems
involved is taken into consideration,
he said.
Timing Methods Scored
Aviation enthusiasts in this country
he added, based their doubt on what
they term the antiQuated method used
III 1AdAN ~ AAiilG lE4t SktGO VA lAiC laCAilA
planes. which results in an unusual
discrepancy between the maximum and
average speeds over the three-kilo-
meter course.
We cannot believe that Maj. De Ber-
nadi was such a poor pilot as TO cause
this discrepancy" he said
Two months ago one world record
was reported as being 297 miles an
hour. and recently another of 3lT miles
was reported. showing. Joyce pointed out.
that 20 miles an hour was added to an
already existing ship and engine in this
short time. The speed increase was
reported accomplished mainly by minor
engine and plane notifications and
certainly not involving new designs, sc
far as we know" he continued, adding
that increasing the speed of an already
existing plane four or five miles an hour
is quite an engineering accomplishment
When this question of speed per-
formance is proposed. We naturally turr
TO close scrutiny of the methods which
govern the timing arrangements" he
said. The loop system" used by the
Italians he added, merely requires the
use Of stop watches guaged TO measure
time only TO one-tenth OF second. and
Evening star., 1928-04-09

that in a speed test, both from physi-
cal and psychological standpoint. al
error in the records OF about II miles
an hour is possible.
The Italian method which is author
lied by the Federation Aeronautique
Internationale. violates fundamental
principle" Mr., Joyce claimed, as the
time must never be averaged over q
speed course. but velocities must be
averaged to get anything like accurate
results.
The Italians are averaging time and
can get practically any result they
want" he continued. This loose prac-
tice may stultify competition. The cost
of experiments necessary to get slight
increases In speed is SO great that In
fairness to all concerned. one should
know without doubt that any records
claimed were accurately timed"
The Stop-watch system was discard
ed in America seven years ago for ar
electrical device which measures the
speed to e-hundredth of a second
The speeds are figured for each run and
the average is taken. whereas under
the loop system. the total time up and
down the course is all that is avail
able, which is averaged and then
changed into miles per hour.
