Casual Observations

Submitted for what they are WORTHY
Our dearest public pedagogue
We must not fail to catalogue.
Do you teach twenty what to do,
Yourself the primrose path pursue?
You task is not any easy one;
Like Mothers Day, its never done.
New faces greet you every year,
And old ones yearly disappear.
Not unlikely diverted demons,
A Bonded sprout a tree becomes.
And storm protected saplings grow
Straight as a feathered arrow.
To what extent do you protect
That backward child's born self-re-
spect.
From scorn and contemelious taunts
OF proud and disrespectful vaunts?
The rich poor child may have its
faults;
And find delight in summersaults.
SO does the pampered poor rich child.
Each was from common earth compil-
ed.
Determination strong as iron
Lay dormant in the youthful Byron.
And the kindly heart of Lincoln
Incased was in an authorization.
The gentlest heart of hearts by far,
Peace seeking conferences lodestar,
Murdered as was ancient Able,
Was delivered in a stable.

SPEEDY TRANSPORT
PLANE SHOWN HERE
Craft Proposed to Carry Pursuit
So adron Cargo Demon
strated.

Demonstrations of a new type of
high-speed transport plane. which may
be adopted by the Army Air Corps as
a cargo plane for the pursuit squadrons,
began today at Boiling Field. The
plane, six-paSsenger cabin monoplane
built by the Consolidated Aircraft Cor
poration, Buffalo, N. Y, was flown here
from Buffalo by Dewey Wells.
The plane has a top speed of 1870
miles per hour and cruising speed of
$50 miles, it is claimed, making it faster
than the standard Army pursuit planes
it is supposed to serve. The plane is
equipped with the motor cowling de-
veloped by the national advisory COM
mittee for aeronautics and is of all
metal construction, except the wings,
which are wood.
AS the pursuit planes carry only a
pilot, mechanics and supplies must be
carried in other planes when the pur-
suit squadrons make a change of base.
A fast type of cargo plane is required
for this work and the Air Corps now is
making a study of various types for
this purpose.
While at Boiling Field the plane also
will be demonstrated to officials of the
Navy Bureau of Aeronautics. the Ma
rine Corps and the aeronautics branch
of the Department of Commerce.

that this year, through drought conditions,

This would appear to put the hunter I'm the
position OF choosing between being o good sport
and sparing the birds to q large extent, or being
selfish and cause probably irreparable damage

That the danger to Wild ducks and geese b

timOny Of conservationists from many Cana

States Is that q decidedly serious condition
now confronts the waterfowl Of the two coun-
tries.
"a partial remedy Is found In the fact that
throughout the United States the amended
regulations under the migratory bird treaty act
limit the individual hunter to Is ducks and
geese . day and prescribe possession limit
Of two days bag. This reduction from last
years daily bag Of IS ducks and geese and
the establishment Of q possession limit for the
first time under the Federal regulations should
have salutary effect on the game birds at
the principal shooting grounds. We are still

the effect the reduced bag limit win have ON
the protection Of the birds.
Local observers Of bird abundance are likely
to be misled in some remaining water areas
and to consider that local conditions are gen.
eEal throughout the country. AS o matter Of
fact, however, the construction Of water areas
In many States win induce the birds to con-
centrate IN unusually large numbers on some
Of the noted resting grounds and IN wintertng
areas. For example, the gunners In some areas
may ind thousands Of ducks in places where
last year there were but hundreds, and in Such
instances 1t may create the erroneous impress

BUSINESS FAILURES
LESS IN 9Th DISTRICT

Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND, Va, May Failures In
the Richmond district for April not
only dropped sharply from the peak
month of March, but for the first time
in a year the assets exceeded the La
bilities in volume, according to the
monthly report of Frank H. Atwill, spe-
cial bankruptcy counsel for the Retail
Merchants Association of Richmond.
For the first time in history the fig
ures for a fiscal year for the Richmond
district were made available by Mr.. Atwill.
The tabulation for the IL months shows
a total of 789 bankruptcies, with liabil-
tiles of $2,744,177.36 and assets of $801,-
59079. The number of bankruptcies in
Richmond alone amounted to 500, with
liabilities of $1,774,17523 and assets of
$104, 1870. The average liabilities for
the district amounted to $3,486.81,
against $2.661 IS for the city.
In issuing the March report Mr.. Atwill
predicted that the peak had been
reached and that the April figures would
show an improvement. A decline from
"a to 81 bankruptcies was the record
for April. The April liabilities amounted
to 1928, 1920, against $275,703.31 In
March The assets for April amounted
to 1925 ,268.10, or nearly $4,000 more
than liabilities. In March the assets
amounted to only $127,765.82.

Nevertheless, there is an undercur-

iron and steel industry has spent its

are made by the automotive industry
will fail to neutralize the defections in
other lines, notably the railroads.
Sentiment, irregular all year, Is unmis-

~ at this season are at the years peak,
are generally unchanged. Price weak

by further concessions in sheets and q
