AIR FIELD MADE
RAIN PROOF

Due to the energy and efficiency
OF officers at Boiling Field, this
famous place, known among Air
Corps pilots as one of the worst
in the country, has been improved
to such an extent that 1t bids fair
to stand up well under rains. which
in the past have made an inn
passable m" ass Of the field.
Last winter several planes came
to grief at Boiling Field because
OF the deep sticky mud.
Without the expenditure OF any
more money than would normally
be spent in the maintenance Of the
field, it has been covered with
drains and the low spots filled in
with good, firm earth.
Much of the credit for this work
is due to Major Howard c. David
son, commandant of The field, who
borrowed a couple " Army dump
trucks and arranged with contrac-
tors and excavators in Washington
to contribute excess dirt from their
operations This dirt was deposited
where it served the best purpose.
AS a result, Boiling Field has been
made a safe place for planes.

pie from the free to the dutiable list
contend that 10 will provide a do
nestle market for n large acreage
now producing short staple, IN which
the growers, II given the incentive
OF a protective tariff. could pro-
duce all the long staple the Ameri-
can mills would require.
II am confident that in many
perts Of South Texas and especially
in the Lower Rio Grande Valley,
production OF long staple cotton
would prove q very profitable in
dustTy. providing the growers were
given protection sufficient TO cover
the difference IN the cost Of pro-
ductiOn." Congressman Garner said.
1t is certain they will make no
effort 10 develop this industry 50
long as they are compelled to meet
the competition Of Egypt and Mex
leo. Long staple cotton is one Of
the few agricultural products OF
which we do not produce a surplus
and Is therefore a product upon
which the growers could realize the
maximum benefits Of a protective
tariff. We failed to place it on
the dutiable list in the house. but
I believe the senate will be in
clined to take n different view OF
the situation"
The fact that Senators Connally
OF Texas and Harrison Of Mississip-
ri ire on the finance commuters
subcommittee on agriculture is re-
garded BY agricultural leaders as
presaging a fair and sympathetic
hearing on the various rates in con-
troversy. II is the general opinion
Of agricultural leaders that there
viii be no reductions Of agricultural
rates that PASSED the house. but that
there will he an effort on the part
Of the committee 70 adjust upward
those rates which are manifestly
OUT Of line with the general tariff
policy.
