that talked were certified and CASH

Even the green and golden currency
Of the republic was being turned

EYES TURN TO
PROBLEM OF
AIR SICKNESS
Less Prevalent Than Sea
Brand and More Easily
Prevented.

BIZ Scrileps-H sssard Ee.espapsr Autagce
WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-The
Guggenheim fund for promotion OF
aeronautics has attacked one Of the
most ticklish and important phases
of aviation-the subject Of air
sickness.
Some people who ride IN air.
planes get sick, Just as some of
those who travel by steamship get
sick. Most of those engaged in the
business Of aviation have been In
clined to ignore the fact that there
is such thing as air sickness. But
passengers don't ignore 1t, and 1t
keeps many people out Of the air.
so the Guggenheim fund decided
to go to work.
And it arrived at the following
conclusion:
"Air sickness not only Is much
less prevalent than sea sickness, but
is prevented more easily or
ameliorated by comparatively sim
pie methods.
Such statistics as are available
indicate that only five per cent of
air passengers are subject to air
sickness.
I'm general the difficulty is de-
rived from two causes-one psychic
logical, the other physical Dis
orders frequently are the result of
nervousness on the part of the In
dividual not accustomed to flying.
The obvious solution here, of course,
is the growing public confidence in
aeronautical safety.
From the physical standpoint,
the particular cause of air sickness
seems to be lack of proper ventila-
ton. Air sickness occurs nearly al
ways in closed cabin planes, and
the successful passenger transport
companies will be those which so
design their cabins as to guarantee
adequate ventilation.
also, an efficient pilot who Sc
lects the proper air stratum and
avoids bumpy riding as far as pos
Sible, can do much to eliminate the
risk of air sickness for his pas
sengerS."

VVickersham On Trap Sites

44AC C<A41I1CA yuA~u OGC4IA VO ON in full control Of trap ties with out the aid of any law They accomplish this by :. gentle mems agreement" in which each agrees to respect tic trap loca- ton of the other. T',c "biy fei- lows" are bound to respect this agreement because caCll one is sitting on "eggs" ann darcs not move. The "big fellow" keeps the little fellow in line by his control of the market. There are q few cannery owners who are free lances and who will buy pirate" fish, but even these know that only a small amount of such buying will be tolerated. If this practice should become more general, the party would be promptly disciplined. Such thing occurred in the Kctchi- kan district several years ago.
 A second fact regarding fish traps is now generally recogniz- ed, and that is that il1depend- ent trapmen are disappearing just as William l.. Paul predict ed in the legislature for 1927, and the control of all traps is passing to about five companies. This result is inevitable.
 As a result of this tendency (so long as the trap remains a legal institution) it would seem : best for the public interest that fish traps be licensed from year to year and that owners be conl- pelled to pay the government for the privilege-a privilege given them today. Such a li- cenSe should. however, reserve in unmistakable terms the full right of the government to "rc- gulate, restrict, or to prohibit" the use of traps for fishing sal mon, and also that the right of the Territory to tax the fish or fish caught therein should re- main in full force in effect.

 We do not follow the Hon.

If this is true, then they could not be abolished except after compensation.

ALLEN APPEALS
CUSTER DECISION
Former Policeman Dismissed
by Trial Board for Improper
! Use of Pistol.

Former Policeman Robert G.. Allen
yesterday filed with the District Com
misSionerS brief in support of his ap-
peal against the sentence of the Police
Trial Board diSmissing him from the
police force.
The trial boards action was taken
when it convicted Allen of improper
use of his revolver on the night of
March IS, when he is said to have shot
a colored man in an alley near Twenty
third and G streets The appeal was
filed through Cromelin & Laws, attor-
news.
The brief sets out that Allen, in using
his revolver. had called to the man to
halt, and only fired after the command
had been refused, and because he had
reason to believe that felony had
been committed. Other officers on the
scene testified at the trial that they
would have used their revolverS had
they been in Aliens circumstances.
Claims Prejudicial Error.
Allen claimed prejudicial error. in
that at the suggestion of the trial board
that his character would not be in
CURED into, he had dismissed 20 rep
utable character witnesses who were
ready to testify for him. Nevertheless
lie COllIeIlOS, tIe lTldl pOafQ Qua enter
into the Question of his character by
examination of Lieut.. Holmes and
Capt. Stott of the precinct.
Allen also contended that his re-
moval from the force was dictated in
part by matters not involved in the
charges against him. The brief states
that lack of discretion" testified to by
Capt Stott. is one of these matters,
which should not have been considered
by the board. since it was not one of
the offenseS charged against him.
Acts of Others Cited.
Many other officers, Aliens brief re-
cites, have used their revolvers in sim
tlar' situations, and have not been
brought before the trial board as a re-
suit.
The appeal will be officially before
the Commissioners at their meeting to-
day. but it is their practice to give
such matters several days considera-
ton, and decision is not expected un-
til next week.
