DRY LAW REPEAL URGED
Connecticut Labor Head Declares
Prohibition Failure.

HARTFORD, Conn, September 2 l49.
Repeal Of the eighteenth amendment
was advocated today by President
Charles j. Moore in mis- report made to
the forty-fifth annual convention of
the Connecticut Federation of Labor.
Prohibition" he said, has failed in
every Christian civilized community in
which it has been tried. It certainly
has failed in the United States. Each
year we find one million people or more
convicted Of drunkenness. Temperance
among the young has disappeared and
: the Government loses annually in rev.
enue hundreds of millions of dollars.
Graft and corruption are rampant
among enforcement officers. Crime
seems to flourish and disrespect for all
law appears to be growing"
Revival OF the brewing industry. he
said, would furnish employment for
thousands of idle men.

 Still See Dangers
 While calling the achievement un- expectedly good and tending to prove the reliability of airship travel, the News Chronicle says that the anx- iety regarding aerial trips over the ocean still exists, the Express con- tends that the flight should prove Of lasting value in showing Cana dians that the British at home are still capable of energetic and crea- tive action.
 None of the commentators recall ec the critical moments of year ago-that both the R-10O and R-1O1 were too slow and lacked sufficient lift to be of commercial value, and that the designer himself, Sir C. Denistoun Burney, was one of the severest critics.

 IN SAFETY TODAY

assistant director of airship devel- opment, Squadron Leader R. S.. Booth, captain of the R-1O0 and Squadron Leader Johnston, navigat- ing officer, talked of the flight as soon as the ship was made fast.
 There still were five tons of fuel left aboard the R-1OO when she hooked onto the mast here. The most valuable thing learned on the trip. the officers believed, was that the airship was the most comfort able means of transportation. The course over the North Atlantic they regarded as the most feasible for commercial use if larger ships are used.
 Tt was a very good test of the ships ability" Sir Dennistoun said. We ran into one of your thunder storms last night and rose to 4,000 feet to get out of it. The trip was 3,364 miles from mooring mast at Darlington 10 mooring mast at St. Hubert.
 Gained Much Experience
 The chief benefit we derived from the trip was experience. We need long flights to gain the exper- fence in handling lighter-than- air craft. There was not a movement across the Atlantic, and the ship be- haved perfectly. We dodged to get into favorable winds once or twice, but the air was calm.
 The most impressive thing about the trip is this: On Monday night I entertained a party at dinner. We left Darlington at 9:46 p. m. and if we had been lucky at the latter end of the trip we would have been here in time for dinner last night"
 Major Scott, captain of the first British airship to fly. inventor of the air ministry's method of airship mooring and one of the greatest of nghter-than-air experts, has devel- oped a new plan for collecting water for ballast while flying, He men, tioned 1t casually while chatting after the landing.
 He had been asked about ballast.
 Oh, when we need more water we just collect it on the fly. We did it all the way across.
 Collect Rain Water
 We built a sort of little gutter arrangement along the top of the envelope and collected rain water The enormous bulk of the ship makes it quite easy, Then we piped the water down, strained it and put 1t into the pipes.
 We managed to get three tons that way. It doesn't cost anything and works perfectly any time it rains-and of course there is always lots of rain around the Atlantic
