MORE EFFICIENT
PLANE CONTROL
GREATEST NEED
Report to Congress Cites
FaIIibiIity of Human
Element.

By Science Serrice
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Rather
than expect airplane pilots to be
Iupermen, who will always function
at 100 per cent efficiency in an
emergency. designers of airplanes
must try to improve the construc-
lion Of their machines to the point
where they will be easier to land,
will not have tendency to spin
ard have satisfactory control
ability"
Such are the conclusions reached
. by the national advisory committee
for aeronautics in its annual report
TO congress.
The department Of commerce
made an analysis Of air accidents
n 1923, and came to the conclusion
that in nearly half of the miShapS.
the pilot was to blame. Had his
judgment been better, or had he not

set Of circumstances, had his re
action" been better and quicker,
the situation would have been met
adequately. While this is all true
enough, and while medical super
vision of pilots, always strict. is
likely to become even more strin-
gent, nevertheless flying should be
made safer through the elimination
from airplanes of today certain I'M
desirable aerodynamic character
isticg, the report states.
1t may be necessary for military
airplaneS to be able to spin for
military maneuvers. 1t is neither
necessary nor at all desirable for
civil airplanes to have this tendency.
Other factors in airplane safety
which have to do with design are
stability and controllability
Whether the controls are being
held by the pilot or left free, one
should be able to proceed in de-
sired direction and at a desired
altitude. Many airplanes do not
have satisfactory stability. in stalled
flight. Scientific work is going on
al the time in an effort to work
out improved stability.
As for the factor Of controllability,
It is noted that while most airplaneS
have satisfactory controllability in
normal flight, if the plane is stalled
the controls operate in a most con-
fusing manner. After a spin has
developed for several turns, it is
often true that the controls become
ineffective. While work is proceed
ing in an effort to solve this prob
lem. there is much still to be done.
The formation of ice on airplanes
is regarded as an element of dan
ger, and this question is being stud
led at the Langley memorial aero
nautics laboratory. Protective coat
ings for aircraft surfaces have been
attempted, but have not shown
themselves to be conspicuously sue
Cessful as yet.

In the congested portions Of ty-

HIGH PRICE OF BEAUTY
French Woman Spend $500, 100000 a

PARIS, Jan. 3-French women
spend more money than any other
nationality for beauty aids. The
reason lies in the constant change
in styles and shades of lipsticks,

cosmetics. Over here the manufac-
turers' slogan is: "A complexion

Senator Wagner in First
Reaction to Hoover Spe-

ciaI Message.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
The first reaction to the preliminary
report of the Law Enforcement Com
mission and President Hoover's special
message to Congress transmitting the
document came from the Senate with
the offering of resolution by Senator
Wagner, Democrat, New York, to have
the commission report upon the suit
ability of existing laws for the promo
ton of temperance"
The New Yorker presented his meas
ure a short time after . special mes
senger from the White House had pre-
sented the commissions report and the
accompanying communications from the
President, Secretary Mellon and Attor-
ney General Mitchell.
Asks Specific Investigation.
The resolution would have the Presi-
dent direct the commission to investi-
gate and report on the particular phase
Of the prohibition situation mentioned.
In both the Senate and House a few
minutes delay in reading the commune
cations was necessitated by the wind
ing up of business at hand.
As soon as the Senate finished read
ing Mr.. Hoover's message, Incorporating
the various reports, the papers were re-
ferred to the judiciary committee, and
the tariff debate was resumed. In the
House, at the conclusion Of the read
ing of the message, there was applause
by Republicans, in which some Demo-
Gratis joined.
Speaker Longworth immediately re-
ferred the papers to various House COM
mittees.
At the Senate side, Senator'S Jones,
Republican, Washington, and Harris,
Democrat, Georgia, the dry leaders who
engaged in the recent public discussion
of law enforcement conditions, followed
copies of the messages closely through
out the reading.
Senator Borah Absent.
Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho,
who has condemned existing law en-
forcement agencies, was not present at
the time.
The Wagner resolution was placed
upon the table for future consideration
without any debate. It would request
the commission to inquire into and re-
port upon:
hibition laws for the promotion Of tenn
perance;
"2. The ACCESSIBILITY of amending such
laws and the amendments necessary to

LAW ENFORCEMENT
REMEDIES URGED
Attorney General Mitchell
Tells Hoover "Obvious
Defects" Must End.

Speedy adoption of measures to rem
edy obvious defects" in criminal law
enforcement and the extended inquiry
to determine more fundamental trou-
bles" was recommended today in a re-
port by Attorney General Mitchell to
President Hoover. who forwarded the
suggestions to Congress in transmitting
the first preliminary report by the Law
Enforcement Commission. Mitchells
report follows:
Some Defects Obscure.
There are some obvious defects in
our enforcement agencies, and there
are measures that may be readily de-
vised and taken tending to cure them.
There are other defects obscure in their
nature, requiring more prolonged study.
1T has seemed to me, therefore, that
any program for improvement naturally
falls into two parts:
First: The prompt adoption of
measures readily to be devised for
curing obvious defects; and
Second: Extended inquiry to deter
mine the more fundamental troubles
and means Of remedying them.
4AC oCpdi IiL1CLlb VI JuSIlCe tIlQ LIlc
Commission on Law Observance and
Enforcement have been cooperating in
the preparation of proposals which may
be put into effect speedily to produce
immediate improvement, having in
mind that this preliminary program
would be followed by more elaborate
and thorough consideration of the
subject. Only measures requiring new
legislation need now be mentioned.
THE task of enforcing the criminal
laws Is not confined to single agency.
Several must operate efficiently to pro-
duce good results. There must be:
"First-Agencies to detect offenses
and obtain evidence.
misunderstanding attorneys who
use the evidence thus prepared and
try the cases in court.
"Third-Courts to hear the cases.
AT present obvious defects exist In
each Of these agencies.
Court Congestion Serious.
Congestion in the courts deserves ut
most consideration. In many districts
the Federal courts are unable to cope
with the volume of business brought be-
fore them. This results in delay, with
weakening of evidence and difficulty in
obtaining convictions. Another effect of
congestion Is the effort to clear dockets
by wholesale acceptance of pleas Of
guilty, with light punishment. The de-
terrent effect Of speedy trial and ade-
quate punishment is lost. Congestion
also means delay in trial of civil cases,
with hardship to private litigants, par
ticularly those Of small means.
This condition has been disclosed in
the statistics for the year ending June
80, 1929, set forth in my annual report

TAKEN FROM NAVY
Government Resumes Trial
of Musil, Who Pleads Not
Guilty of Theft.

The Government has recovered the
entire $54,651.21 which Lieut.. Charles
Musil, naval paymaster, is accused of
having taken, it developed today when
the special general court-martial hear
ing his case was resumed at the Wash
ington Navy Yard, under the presi-
dency OF Capt willis Mcdowell. At the
outset the court-martial board over
ruled q defense plea, calculated to halt
the trial on the ground Of insanity,
after the court had been advised that
an examination of Lieut.. Musil, under
authority of the Bureau of Medicine
and Surgery, Navy Department, had
failed to reveal any evidence of this.
The prosecution. conducted by First
Lieut.. Miller ". Parsons of the Marine
Corps, the judge advocate Of the court,
had rested its case shortly before noon.
The defense had put one witness on the
stand, and Capt. Mcdowell then au-
thorized an adjournment until tomor-
row morning at 10 o'clock. Following
the formal arraignment of Lieut.. Musil,
in answer to the charges and specifica-
tons read at the previous converting of
last month to permit of the accused
being given a mental examination,
Lieut.. Musil pleaded not guilty.
Identified by Parsons.
Lieut. Parsons first took the witness
stand and was sworn and then identi-
fed the accused. He offered in evidence
and identified the report from the
naval medical officers, holding that a
detailed neurological examination had
failed to reveal evidence of any mental
abnormality in Lieut.. Musil and had
reported that the officer Is not insane
and is At for duty.
After this evidence was introduced,
the court was cleared of outsiders to
consider overruling of the plea in bar,
of the defense, designed to halt the
trial. After q brief consultation be-
hind closed doors, the court denied the
defense plea and Capt. Mcdowell
ordered the Judge advocate to proceed.
During his formal arraignment, Lieut..
Musil stood up and in clear voice
specifications which had been pre-
viously read.
Money Not Embezzled.
Lieut.. Arthur P. Spencer, defense
counsel for Lieut.. MuSil, advised the
court that the accused officer admitted
that the $54,651.21 was in his possess
sion, but that Lieut. Musil did not en-
bezzle this money or convert 1t to his
own use.
Assisting Lieut. Spencer at the de-
tense counsel table were two Wash
ington civilian attorneys, Alvin L. New
myer and Joseph A. Kaufman.
On December IL last, Lieut.. Musil
claimed insanity and sought to prevent

PARTY TO SEEK COUPLE
MISSING FOR 13 MONTHS
BY the Associated Press.

ST. GEORGE, Utah, January 13.-
Although 1t has been more than Is
months since the wild gorges of the
Colorado River swallowed Mr.. and Mrs.
Glenn Hyde on a honeymoon boat trip,
two determined fathers still roam the
river banks searching for at least a
clue.
Having thoroughly combed the north
ern side Of the rivers banks, r. c. Hyde
of Hansen, Idaho, father OF the missing
youth. and william Haley, father of
the bride, were en- route today to Los
Angeles to organize a new searching
party to cover territory south Of the
famous river gorge.
Hyde, also accompanied by his
daughter, Miss Jeanne Hyde, arrived
here after another search Of the vicinity
In which the young couple last was
heard from. The hunt occupied three
weeks.

block of Seventeenth street, to the home
of the suspected person, on Eighteenth
street. With every step her fever
mounted several degrees.
Exactly what happened when Polly
and her indignant mistress arrived at
the Eighteenth street premises is not
a matter of court record, in all It's coli
orful details. Reports from spectators
who frantically called the riot squad Of
No. 3 police precinct indicated that the
air was turbulent with parrot screams,
feathers, accusations and determinations.
Police Judge John p. Mcmahon heard
all about 1t this morning from Miss
Nelson herself. He decided she had
worked herself into too much of fever
on her Eighteenth street expedition and
sentenced her to IS days In jail or
paying the court $25. She went to
jail.
Efforts to locate Polly for an inter-
view were unsuccessful. 1t Is said she
has gone into retirement until this par
rot fever has blown over.

To the Congress of the United States:
In my previous messages have re-
quested the attention of the Congress
to the urgent situation which has
grown up in the matter of enforce

After exhaustive examination of the
subject, the Commission on Law OBJ
servance and Enforcement and the Of
ficials of the Department of Justice
and the Treasury Department unite in
the conclusion that increasing enact
ment of Federal criminal laws over
the past 20 years, as 10 which violation
of the prohibition laws comprises
rather more than one-haf of the total
arrests, has finally eliminated in a
burden upon the Federal courts of a
character for which they are i'll de-
signed, and in many cases entirely be-
yond their capacity. The result is to
delay civil causes, and of even more
the defeat of both justice
