AIR SLANG TRIPS
UNDERH|LL

The enthusiasm of Representa-.
tive Charles l.. Underhill, of Mas
sachusetts, for an airport for
Washington outran his knowledge
of technical verbiage yesterday,
when he sat with members of the
joint Congressional Commission on
Airports and listened to Colonel
Lindbergh.
Underhill suggested to Lindbergh
the possible establishment of two
air stations-one for passengers
only, the other for general activi-
ties. The passenger terminal, he
suggested, could be near the city,
the other some miles distant.
Couldn't these passenger planes
discharge their passengers and
then be TAXED over to the other
field, Colonel?" asked Underhill.
= Lindbergh regarded him with a
quizzica1, dismayed expression.
There was an embarrassing pause.
Senator Hiram Bingham, chair
man of the commission and vet
eran flier, came to the rescue.
You don't mean TAXED he
smiled to Underhill. "That means
to run over the ground around a
field. You mean ferried.'

points throughout the city, the chill
dren visiting them today and to-

hood House.
