SLEEP MURDER

HARTFORD, Conn, March 90
Authorities seeking to fathom the
riddle Of the so-called sleep muir
der" Of Harry E. Adams, govern
ment weather man, hit today upon
the theory of a 'love rectangle" as
perhaps Illuminating its motives.
Adams, dead of chloroform said
to have been administered by his
wife, Olive, was friendly with Dor
othy Collins, an attractive steno-
grapher. The suspicion that this
friendship caused Mrs. Adams to
want him out of the way had been
entertained

tered the chloroform, but her attor-

1esSion and will fight TO free her.

NATIONS FIGHT
EXPANSION Of
U. S. CAPITAL
Restrict Sales of Stocks to
Natives; Curb Imports
of Films, Autos.
BY LYLE G. WILSON
United Press STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 29-Pro-
posals of the Ford Motor Company
Of Canada to restrict sale Of a new
issue of 10000 shares of stock to
Canadian citizens aroused interest
in Washington today because the
proposal may be related to a series
Of somewhat general foreign devel-
opments looking toward curtailing
penetration of American capital.
A more drastic move designed to
exclude American citizens from
voting privileges in the British Cen
eral Electric Company was taken in
London Thursday when share hold
ers confirmed adoption Of a resolu-
ton creating 100000 shares to be
held exclusively by British subjects.
The recent purchase of the Opel
Automobile Company of Germany
by General Motors was cited as a
development in the penetration of
foreign industry.
Fight Foreign Capital
During post war imitation periods
the Kuehlman Company, which con-
trolls the chemical industry in
France, was issued a restricted
block of shares with plural voting
rights when it was reported German
capital was purchasing control Of
the organization.
The German Farben Industrie.
controlling the chemical industry
OF Germany, is understood t. be
similarly protected against foreign
capital. So long as such restrictions
are directed against all foreigners
and not specifically against Amer
leans, officials said there was no
obvious cause for complaint.
Foreign barriers against Amer
lean capital or industrial penetra-
ton have been directed in various
forms abroad, especially in Europe.
Both American automobiles and
American moving picture films have
been subjected to severe restriction
II. some cases by tax and in others
by governmental prohibitions on the
import Of more than a specified
number of articles annually.
Restrict Film ShOwings
Great Britain, France, Germany.
Czecho- Slovakia and Austria are
among European countries which
restrict showing Of American films
in. order to foster native industry.
The most threatening film situation
is believed to be in France where
press dispatches indicate the
French government compels the
American industry to pay an in
direct subsidy to French film pro-
ducerS.
For each French film produced,
the producer receives seven per-
nlits to exhibit foreign films in
France. These permits then must
be purchased from the French pro-
Queer by the American producer in
order that American films may be
exhibited in France. French pro-
ducerS now propose the restriction
be increased.
While agreeing penetration of
foreign industry by American cap
itsl must be expected to arouse
some resentment and comment, Of
ficials do not believe this situation
will prevent further penetration.

AIRCRAFT LEAGUE
CERT|F|ES ENTRIES
Four D. c. Youths Qualify
for National Model
Meet.

The District Model Aircraft League
has been selected as the Official body
to certify local boys for the Third Ma
tional Playground Aircraft Tournament,
conducted by the Playground and
Recreational Association Of America,
which will take place at Louisville, KY,
october 10 and 10.
Last year nine Washington model
aviators qualified for the national tour
of the nine boys made outstanding
showings. Herbert Dorsey won the
national senior championship and Lloyd
Fish and George Bell won third places
in the senior and junior classes, respec-
lively.
Flyers Are Classified.
Local flyers are classified In the Dis
trict Model Aircraft Tournament ac-
cording to the performance of their
planes, but record also Is kept of the
age of the flyers. so that in certifying
them to the national tournament. they
will be recorded as seniors or juniors.
Seniors are those boys who are past
their sixteenth birthday. and who have
not yet attained their twenty-first
birthday by September 80. Juniors are
those who have not yet attained their
sixteenth birthday by September 80.
Owing to the great interest in the
local tournament on September 3, 4 and
S, an extra outdoor meet has been
scheduled for August 10 at $50 in the

qualification round will be held to allow
newcomers to test their planes and
qualify for the local contest. A flight of
S seconds is required for qualification.
Coming In Fast.
Qualifications are coming In fast from
the boys who are attending the COM
munity center classes meeting under
the direction of John H. Williams each
Wednesday and Thursday afternoon at
Central High School. Many Of the boys
took only two days to build their first
planes.
Four boys qualified with the plane
for which directions are now being
given by Mr.. Williams through the in
struction course on the Sunday model
aircraft page.
They are Elliott Valentine, S05 Kan
sas avenue: Hugh B. Scott, 1929 Blair

when they will have scale models Of &C.
tual airplanes that now fly the airways
of the Nation, performing to their de-
light and happiness. 1t is not an easy
task to construct q model plane which
to all outward appearances resembles
a popular type in operation today and
which at the same time will fly itself.
But once this goal is accomplished,
the aeronautical future of the designer
and builder is indeed bright.
THE Nation needs aeronautical de-
signers and engineers and needs them
badly. Through model building, the air
craft industry will obtain its engineers
in the future. know of no better
course for the youth of Washington,
who are keenly interested in flying, to
pursue than TO utilize the vacation
months In model plane building and
model plane flying. The children Of
Washington should interest themselves
in this Important matter and they will
find that the time was well spent. not
only with respect to their future educa-
ton In aeronautics. but with respect to
the unlimited happiness that model
plane flying will bring them at the
moment"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-08-04

Declaring that model airplanes offer
the primary step for an aeronautical
career, Senator Hiram Bingham, pres
ident of the National Aeronautical As
ISOLATION, stressed the advantages and
benefits to be reaped in model plane
building and advocated the movement
now being conducted by The Star.
The Senator's statement follows:
Through the efforts of The Evening
Star, the children of Washington have
an excellent opportunity to develop In
terest in aeronautics that not only will
be of great value in the future. but will
have an appeal to their sporting. COM
petitive and inventive instinct at the
present time.
Model airplanes offer the primary
step for an aeronautical career, and
every boy, and girl, for that matter.
should take advantage of the oppor-
tunities that are now presented to OBJ
tain guidance and counsel on the sub
ject of building and flying model planes.
Once boys and girls have built model
planes of the primary type. they will
readily recognize the chance for inn
nrovement, until the time will come
