A|RMAIL SERVICE
CLAIMS SUBMITTED
Capital Petitions for InCIu-
sion on Southern Trans
continental Route.

Inclusion of the National Capital on
airmail route was urged by a special
committee of the Washington Chamber
of Commerce at the close of hear
ing by the interdepartmental commit
tee on Always yesterday afternoon in
the Post ONCE Department.
Appearing as the last speaker before
the committee in an all-day session,
Dorsey w. Hyde. speaking for the COM
mittee of the local trade organization,
said that the National Capital is in
terested especially in the opening of a
transcontinental route connecting with
the present coastal airmail route at
Atlanta. thus giving the National Cap
ital direct airman connection with the
South and West.
McAdoO Visions Future.
William G.. McAdoo, former Secretary
of the Treasury and chairman of the
board of Southern Skylines, upon whose
proposal for a new tranScontinental
route at greatly reduced rates yeSter-
days hearing was held, disclosed that
the ultimate social effects of aeronau-
tics upon the American people will be
more profound than even the eXagger-
ated conception the most optimistic now
may have. Because of its tremendous
potential benefit to the people as
whole, he declared, the Government is
justified in using every means of slim
ulating the growth of air tranSporta-
ton.
Aviation, in common with other in
duStrieS, he said, now is suffering from
the financial depression attendant upon
the stock market collapse. AS result,
he continued stimulation by the Gov
eminent of the aviation industry at
present is in the nature of public
necessity, not only that the industry
may not be crippled, but as a means
Of building up national defense.
Detailed Brief Submitted.
Mr.. McAdoo and James G. Edgerton,
vice president and operations manager
of Southern Skylines, presented to the
committee detailed brief in support of
their proposal to carry the airmail over
the Southern tranScontinental route at
rates which not only would enable the
Post ONCE Department to wipe out the
airmail deficit as far as that line is con-
cerned, but to make small profit.
The committee which presented the
National Capitals plea for place on
the proposed route was headed by Lieut..
Walter Hinton, chairman, and Greed V.
Fulton. vice chairman, of the aviation
committee of the Washington Chamber
of Commerce.
Following the hearing. which was the
largest airmail hearing yet conducted by
the interdepartmental committee, the
proposal was taken under consideration
by the committee, which will announce
its decision later.
More than 80 members Of the Senate
and House appeared before the COM
mittee during the day in support of the
proposed extension of airmail service
into the South and Southwest. Delega-
tions frcm many cities in those portions
of the country were present to urge the
claims of their citizens for airfnail serv-
ice. The representatives of most of the
large air transport companies and COM
mercial and governmental aeronautical
heads also were present.

BY
SENATE'S
REPORT

Passage by the Senate at
this session of the Dale bill to
liberalize the civil service re-
tirement law loomed as a pos
sibility today when the Senate
Civil Service Committee, in
executive session, voted to re-
port the measure favorahly.
Prospects in the Senate are also
bright for the Brookhart bill to
increase the salaries of Federal EN-.
ployes who failed to obtain the
raises Congress intended for them
under the WEIGH act. The commit
tee discussed this bfll. but decided
to defer action until their meeting
next Friday.
Killed by Veto
Both bills were under congress
sional consideration last session and
the Dale bill ! got as far as the
White House, where it was killed
by a pocket,Heto last March.
A more encouraging outlook for
both measures under the new ad
ministratioh was seen by Robert H.
Alcorn, chairman of the joint CON
ference On retirement, and members
OF the executive committee of that
body, who waited outside the doors
of the Civil Service Committee room
and. after the meeting. thanked the
Senator's for their action.
Senator Porter H. Dale of Yer
mont. chairman of the committee.
declt tned to predict what action
might be taken on his bill at this
session. but said that the measure
is now on the Senate calendar and
it is indicated that the Senate will
call up it's calendar before the pro-
posed recess next month.
! Passage of the bill by the Senate,
NE said. would help to get early
faction on the measure in the House
lat the next session, unless the
House chose to call up the bill from
the Speakers table at the special
session.
BrOOkhart Has Hopes
Senator Smith W. Brookhart of
Iowa said he expected his pay bill
would be placed on the calendar next
week, with every indication Of pas.
sage with little delay. ......
Both bills are identical with those
of the last session, and little or no
opposition to them in the Senate has
developed since last March.
The Dale bill would increase the
maximum annuity of retired Govern
ment workers from $1,000 a year to
$1,000 a year, would reduce the age
limit two years and would make re.
tirement optional after 80 years of
service. The Brookhart measure
would give one step-up in salary to
Government employees in the various
grades set up in the WEIGH act.

80 ARRESTS
BRINGN0
CLUE

Though a weeks search has
failed to produce a single clue
and 80 arrests have been made
in vain; police still had hopes
today Of solving the murder
of William Sykes.
The detectives spent several hours
questioning three more men known
to frequent the neighborhood where
Sykes is believed to have been at
tackled. Sykes was found uncon-
scious in an alley in the 300 block
Pennsylvania Ave. N. W.
The new prisoners are William o.
Bell, 46, \ carpenter; John Rivers,
so. a painter. and James NJ. Bell,
so, a clerk, all of the Mades Hotel,
in the rear of which Sykes was
found.
Two Are Released
Two other suspects were released.
They are John Joseph Patten, 35.

so, of the Gospel Mission.
were unable to locate anyone no
would admit having witnessed the
fight in which Sykes is believed to
have been wounded. Each of the
80 prisoners denied any knc wledge
Of a brawl.
The injuries suffered by Sykes,
including a fractured skull, CON.
vinced detectives that the 30-year-
old fugitive from the District jail
was a victim of foul play. The
early theory that he might have
been struck by an automobile was
abandoned as was the belief that
he might have fallen from window.
Sykes was known to have been a
heavy drinker. He also was known
to have frequented some of Wash"
ington's most notorious dives. These
facts strengthened the opinion OF
Lieut.. Edward j. Kelly and other
members Of the homicide squad that
he had been slain.
Sykes died in Emergency Hospital
before detectives had an opportunity
to ask him and questions. He failed
to regain consciousness after being
found with his head dashed in.
Meanwhile, DR.. j. Ramsey Neyttt.
District coroner. has delayed order.
ing an inquest pending the out
come of the police investigation.
TITS a hard job, but we're doing
our best to keep 1t from being an
unsolved murder" Lieutenant Kelly
said.
