LOYALTY Is
LEAGUE aim
Attorney Explains Purposes
To Local Business Men
AT Luncheon

The League OF Latin-American
Citizens, an organization which first
was formed along the border and
which Is to become nationwide in
its scope, has for its aim the teach
ing Of loyalty to the United states
and to ideals Of this country, j. I.
Canales, local attorney, told men,
bers Of the Kiwanis club here at the
regular weekly luncheon Thursday.
Canales. who has been devoting
considerable time TO organization
of the league. dramatically told OF
the high purpose of those interested
IN the movement.
Only Latin-American born IN the
United States or those who have
become citizens of this country are
eligible to membership, he said.
The purpose of organization
IS to teach these citizens loyalty TO
this country, to encourage them to
learn to speak the English language
and to teach allegiance to the Amer
lean flag to their children" the
speaker declared. The oath OF
membership pledges members to
learn to speak English, he said.
The league Is not a political or
%ganization," he continued. In fact
the constitution bars the holder Of
n public office from active MEM
bership. Such an officer can only
become a passive member without
voice in the affairs Of the league.
Extracts from the constitution Of
the organization were read by the
speaker to show the purpose Of the
league.

Advice to Girls
BY ANNIE LAURIE


Dear Annie Laurie:
We are two girls about 10 and
are very good friends. Our prob
lem is this: We are both engaged
to the same boy who is two years
our senior. Now Annie Laurie, we
both love him dearly. Please don't
tell us to forget him. He comes 70
see each Of us three nights a week.
He hasn't any idea that we have
talked this over.

Dot and Dash: The young mar
cannot be serious nor honorable IN
his intentions towards either OF you.
MY advice would be that you cross
him from your list Of friends.

I am 10 years old and ! am en-
gagged 10 be married to a young
man about a year older than ]. !

of the city and he comes TO see me
once a week. He is in business for
himself and Is kept very busy. 1 get
terribly lonesome. Would IL be fair
to him il I went to dances and
parties without him?
LONESOME.
Lonesome: Hardly fair. my dear.
You wouldn't want to think that
he was doing the same thing, would
you? He is spending MS time in
order that he may make a good
living for you and be in a position
to give you everything he possibly
can after marriage. Parties with
girls. or movies or bridge teas or
something Of the sort would be quite
proper, but it is best not TO 60 on
mixed parties when your fiance can
not accompany you.

AIRPORTS

The Santa Barbara, Cal, yacht
club plans to operate an electric
airway beacon on the roof of its
clubhouse as soon as the depart
ment of commerce authorizes its in
stallation. A definite Morse code
characteristic will be assigned the
beacon.
City authorities Of Staunton, Va,
have selected another site for their
municipal airport. The new site can
be secured for a nominal sum, and
the money available for airport pur-
poses can be used to install special
facilities.
The green course lights operated
in conjunction with the main bea-
con unit at the Pueblo, Colo, mu-
nicipal airport will flash the letter
p" in Morse code to aid filters in
locating the markers. The depart
ment of commerce at Washington
has authorized this characteristic
for Pueblo.
Greenfield, Mass, has authorized
the expenditure of $4,000 for mu-
nicipal airport purposes. At a town
meeting the bond issue was adopted
by a vote of 100 to 9. William j.
Mackenzie, airport specialist for
the department of commerce, told
Greenfield citizens the advantages
of an airport before the ballot was
taken.
Hornell Always, Inc, has pur-
chased an airport site at Hornell,
N. Y. Grading Of the area Is now
under way, and hangers and shops
are to be added at once. General
taxi service is planned along with
a flying school.
The Firestone Tire and Rubber
company at Akron, Ohio, has erect
ed the largest air marker yet estab-
lished on the roof of M of its
plants there. In addition to the
name Of the city, a large arrow
points toward the Akron municipal
airport. A system of 5OO-watt

been used to illuminate the mark
ings for night legibility.

Plans for a survey between Wash
