which provides that the school au-
thorities recognize the organizations
and have supervision over them. Mr..
Holmes recalled the disagreements
the board had with the fraternities
until the present plan was put into
effect.
these organizations say they
have the right to organize and If
there is law against it l see a lot
of trouble ahead" Mr.. Holmes con-
cluded.
Secretary Burr doubted whether
the bill would pass, but if it did the
school board would face a serious
problem. he thought.
Holmes Calls Plan Unscientific
This is unscientific." Mr.. Holmes
declared. adding that it is the nat
ural inclination of boys and girls to
organize. He said no school had
the right to tell pupils what they
shall do outside of school hours.
Committeeman Joseph NJ. Ward
moved that the school board go on
record as opposed to the bill and
that letter expressing this feeling
be sent to the author of the bill. It
was the expression of another COM
mitteeman that a workable situation
should not be stopped. Committee
man Louis Young favored writing to
the education committee
At this point the motion authoriz-
ing Mr.. King to Investigate the mat

make report at the next meeting.

Holmes, he may be forced to go to
higher grades or even into high
school under this law.
Claiming that this was unfair, Mr.
Holmes had telephoned, written and
held conversations with the state
commissioner with a view to having
the latter interpret the law in an
other way. Finally the commissioner
received an opinion from the attor-
ney general. who said the law was
being enforced correctly under the
present system.
The superintendent believes tbs
commissioner is acting within his
power by the strict enforcement OF

UNIFORM STATE AIR LAWS URGED
 BY DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.-The need of uniform state laws to con- trol intra-state air commerce is urged by the Department of Con- merce.
 Under the air commerce act the aeronautics branch of the depart ment can only impose regulations on aircraft and aviators operating in interstate commerce. It has no jurisdiction over unlicensed planes and pilots operating within a state. Most of the intrastate operators and aviators, however, have come in voluntarily under the act.
 "Thus far at least" the depart ment said, "all aircraft and air. men are not airworthy or compe- tent. Some are disapproyed for various reasons when they are in- spected or examined by field rep resentatives of the department of commerce. In such cases there is but one alternative either to ac- quire airworthy aircraft or inn prove their ability as airmen, and that is to resort to intrastate oper- ations in a state having no law, or the incorrect law.
 Unfortunately. 1t is this class of

AMERICAN MONEY LOANED FOR RAIL
 ROUTE IN SIBERIA

BELGRADE, Aug. 23-Although all railroads in Jugo-Slavia are state-owned and state-built, a de- parture has been made by the Poz- harevatz District Government which has, with the permission of the Minister of Finance, concluded a loan direct with an American group for the construction of railways in it's area.
 The loan amounts to S5000,000 par value. Interest will be at T per cent which is considered mod crate in view of financial condi- tions.
 The money will be used for a normal-gauge line from Pozhare- vatz to the Danube, which will later be joined by bridge with the Rumanian railway system and will provide new link between West ern Europe, Belgrade and Ruman- ia. A narrow gauge line will also

aircraft and airmen which has been contributing in a large meas ure to the recent aircraft acci- dents with resulting injuries, fatal and otherwise, to both passengers and pilots"
 The remedy, the department said, requires suitable legislation which, among other things. must take into consideration the imperative need of uniformity in the laws through out the country in the matter of airworthiness of aircraft and the competency of fliers.
 "Once in the air." the depart ment pointed out, there can be no distinction between the intra- state and interstate character of an airplane. It must be equally airworthy and the pilot must be equally competent. The same rules of passing, signalling. crossing and landing must apply"
 In states where it may be done constitutionally, the department suggested that legislation be adopt ed requiring aviators to be federal ly licensed. Where such a law would be unconstitutional, regula- tions identical with the federal re- quirements are urgde.

HAVANA, Cuba, Aug. 28.-Jo- seph Barlow, American resident of Havana, who has claims totalling $9 100000 against the Cuban Gov ernment, has been lodged in jail. The charges against him are not made public and he is held without bonds.
 Barlow returned to Cuba from the United States last July The authorities said he had been de- ported, alleging insanity.
 Barlow was once Cuba's richest man. He said he could not pay his bail even if it was arranged. He had but little money
 The controversies with Cuba are of long standing. He claimed he purchased property worth $9,o0o,000 from the original owners of a Spanish land grant. The Cuban Government alleges the claim is unfounded, contending Barlow paid only $50 for the property.

By DONALD C. BOLLES [A. P. Feafurc Written

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S-It gradu- ally is penetrating the inner con- sciousness of New York's citizens that they have a fight to settle in picking the next occupant of the mayors chair
 At least the signs by which such things are judged, point that way, now that the battle lines for the mayoralty campaign have been drawn. A scrap between a son ot Ireland and one whose ancestors hail from Italy should equal in in tensity anything the prize ring de- velops
 And that is exactly what is in the offing.
 It's dapper, witty James J. Walk CT, who wears the colors of Tam many, against Fiorello H. LaGuar : dia, fighting liberal congressman. in whose veins flows the blood of Italian ancestry.
 The mayoralty campaign will be another test of Tammany. It is 12 years since Anti-Tammany can- didate was successful in overcom- ing the Tammany organization. John Purroy Mitchell was the last and LaGuardia hopes to be the next.
 In securing the unofficial nomi- nation of the Republicans to test strength with Tammany, LaGuardia fulfilled an ambition which he has nurtured for many years. Schooled in the art of battle. both in the army and the political ring, he meets worthy foe in the champion of the Tammany organization.
 Four years ago Jimmy Walker, lawyer, sportsman and politician, gained the mayors chair after trouncing John r. Hylan, seeking nomination as the official Tam many candidate.
 In the four years in which he has drawn his pay check from the city, which by the way totals $25,000 9 year, Jimmy Walker probably has become known personally to more people than any of his predecessors.
 His wandering feet have carried him to many climes and he has raised welcoming of visitors, to a rite. His radiant personality; his quick wit and faultless sartorial splendor enhance his position in the public eye and have gained for him reputation as snowman with few equals.
 Aside from the potential vote getting value of Jimmy Walker as a personality, his supporters have
The Daily Alaska empire., 1929-08-28

as might be expected pointed with pride to what they regard as 40 accomplishments of his admins tration.
 Although past history seems to favor the smiling Jimmy, he has a rough road ahead of him in beat Ing LaGuardia.
 La Guardia is the fighting son of fighting man and grew up in an atmosphere of war in an army camp. He has had a varied career but his forte has been politics. Theodore Roosevelt sent him abroad in the consular service and he came back to study law and be- come the deputy attorney general of New York State.
 He became familiar with the city's affairs as president of the board of aldermen and probably has the unequaled distinction of being elected to congress in suc- eessiVe terms as a Republican and a Socialist.
 lie waited no longer than to register his vote for war before he left his seat in Congress and be- came a private in the army. He returned at the end of the World War with a majors insignia, after an active career in the aviation corps.
 LaGuardia knows the value of drama in politics and with Walker on the other side the race should steal much of the brilliance of Broadway during the prediction days.
