A PROCLAMATION

BY the mayor Of the city Of
Brownsville.
Pledged TO a program OF useful
ness and service TO the community.
state and nation. the American Leg
ION today enjoys the full confidence
Of the American public. Ever since
it has been organized the Legion has
exerted its best efforts in the behalf
&C good citizenship and in the build
ing for a greater and better Amer
lea. The nations defenders will al
ways be honored for the glorious
service they gave in war, but their
desire also TO serve in peace must
command our deepest respect and
admiration.
The public has direct interest in
the Legion because Of the worthy
activities IL carries on each year.
The Legion has come TO be recog-
nized as a great stabilizing ;nflu-
cree in American life with some
10000 posts. embracing a member
ship Of nearly 900. zoo veterans Of
the World War. standing ready to
serve their communities in what
ever capacity thcy may. The Leg
ions community servlcc work is vel
known. Every year the post
throughout tho United States carry
on score Of different types Of com
munity welfare and civic betterment
projects.
The Legion's foremost work is
caring for those who are manned
and disabled BY their service in the
war. Justice does not always flow
automatically for the men who have
suffered war-incurred disabiliti En-
and the big task Of the Legion h--
been to see that they receive all ..,-
compensation TO which they ar
justly entitled and adequate hos
pital car and treatment. The Leg
ion has likewise extended a helping
hand to another class Of war suf-
ferers. the widows and orphan child
rem Of those who fought and died for
their country.
"The people Of this city are duly
appreciative Of the splendid endcav-
ors Of the American Legion, and To
Legionnaires they eytcnd every
enlargement 10 broaden and fur
Their expand their work in the FL
ture. Since the achievements of the
Legion can be measured only in
terms of its membership strength
1t Is highly desirable that the pub

eligible World War veteran into tn
ranks Of Legion service.
Now. therefore. j. r. 3. Remit
Mayor Of the City Of Brownsville.
hereby proclaim the week begin

R-lOl MADE BAD
GETAWAY, SAID
Mechanics Story Reveals
Abnormal Condition At
Beginning Of Flight

LONDON, Nov. 3-Pl- j. H
Binks, engineer and one of the
survivors OF the R-l0l disaster to-
day told the special court of inquiry
into the loss OF the dirigible that
the ship did not leave her moor
ing mast on an even keel at the
start Of the tragic voyage 10 India.
The engineer said the R.-l0l
seemed TO fall az the stern as she
left the tower and three water bal
lasts had TO be released. II IS not
unusual to release water ballasts,
but A. seemed abnormal 70 him TO
rel ease three, although he did not
think anything was wrong except
that the ship seemed very heavy.
Binks is still under hospital treat
ment for injuries received in the
crash OF the R-lol. He gave his
testimony with difficulty. and
showed the stress OF great emotion
as he recalled the horror OF the
last minutes Of the trip. Once dur
ing his testimony Sir John Simon,
chairman of the court. halted pro-
ceedings for a few moments to al
low him 10 regain control of him
self.
Most OF Binks' testimony was IN
the form OF a prepared statement
which was read TO the court.
In the plain language Of the
mechanic he unfolded a CHASTITY
story such as IS seldom heard at
an inquiry Of this kind. An atmoS-
phere OF tenseness lowered over
the court as the story reached its
climax OF the crash and explosion.
II turned to Artie Bell" the court
heard. "and I said TO him 1T looks
like its all up. Artie." Then the
flames burst around us and the
water tanks broke. We we're al
most drowned but that flood prob
ABLY saved our lives"
Arthur Bell was another OF the
engineering crew Of the dirigible.
He was on duty with Binks on
that last night. He also testified
today.

MODERN HOME
WORK PUSHED
John d. Jr. Builds Colony
To Aid Pocketbock
OF Workers

NEW YORK, Nov. 3-tP-On the
Cleveland estate OF his father John
d. Rockefeller. Jr., Is building
model workmen's community. a
colony Of small. modern homes the
rental OF which will be within
recah OF a laborer's pay.
The work Is being pushed TO
lessen unemployment and will add
a new concrete chapter to the
other philanthropies OF the Rookie
fellers.
Two apartment houses IN New
York City. for negroes in the
Harlem section and another for
white laborers in the Bronx. gave
evidence before the Cleveland ven
ture of Mr.. ROckefeller's interest in
the small wage Garner.
These projects. specially that IN
Cleveland, were interpreted by the
New York Evening World today as
being the beginning OF a nationwide
plan to wipe out the slums of New
York and other great cities and Dut
their occupants IN modern. airy.
sanitary lodgings at a rental they
could afford to pay.
Harry Mclaughlin, president OF
the Ohio Federation Of Labor, told
the Evening World:
Il firmly believe plans are shap-
ing swiftly In this big mans mind
to wipe out the blight that is re-
tarding the social and spiritual de-
velopment Of great r1asses O,
Americans.
II am sure when Mr.. Rockefeller
gets back on the job there will be
n legion of men and women who
will nc longer have To stand BY
h~elplesSly as their babies starve."
Mr.. Rockefeller II now abroad.
His office in New York had no
comment to make today on the
project but confirmed the object OF
Mr.. Rockefeller's activities at the
Cleveland estate.

ANOTHER GOLF COURSE OPENS,
 THE TOM THUMB
Eighteen Holes Are Ar ranged on Third Floor
 of A. B. Hall

Another indoor miniature golf course, the Tom Thumb, was opened this afternoon on the third floor of the A. B. Hall. There is a round of IS holes in a cheerful pictur- esoue setting. Decorations are typi- cal of the Northland-evergreen trees and shrubbery.
 The course is matted with a felt resembling grass, and among the hazards are a snow-white arctic igloo and roadhouse, besides oth- CT interesting difficulties to the making of a hole in one.
 Par for the course is 30, but to score it will require a trained eye and a steady nerve.
 Grant Logan and Hugh Jones are the proprietors. Both are ex- perienced players at the popular game on regular outdoor courses, and one or both will always be present at their indoor enterprise.
 The entire third floor of the A. B. building is used for the golf course. The spacious room is newly painted, has a high ceiling and an abundance of windows, making for the best of ventilation. It will be brilliantly lighted evenings and will always be kept warm and com | fortable.

CITY TO ISSUE RULES FOR USE
 AT ITS FLOATS
Tell Fishermen to pr a | | Boat Mooring Regula-
 tions for its Approval

Regulations for all vessels using either of the small boat floats of the City will be adopted by the City authorities, thus providing for all possible protection and the most efficient use of the mooring space which is adequate for all needs this winter. This policy was adopted last night by the City Council.
 Representatives of the fishing vessel owners. which constitute the greatest part of the local fleet of small vessels, appeared before the Council and petitioned it for regu- lations. They were advised that the municipal authorities would en- force any reasonable regulations for mooring that the boat owners would formulate.
 The Council left it entirely with the owners to work out system ol mooring that would be satisfactory to all interested and insure protec- tion for craft using the floats. The fishermen also wanted more con venient access to the inner side of the upper float at the City Dock in order to be able to be near the machine shops while they are having necessary repairs made dur ing the next two months.
 The Council last night author ized the City Clerks office to turn over delinquent sidewalk assess ments and unpaid personal taxes to some collection agency. Some of the sidewalk assessments are due from last year.
 Additional street traffic markers were authorized for installation py the Council. The Street Committee was directed to make a survey ol the streets to determine where the signs are needed and to order the necessary markers at once.

planes will be Lieut.. Dutch" Gre Der. well-known in Juneau. He was first baseman of the Legion base ball team in the City League in 1929.
 Eckmann praised Canadian gov ernment officials for their efforts to trace the missing airnen and their plane, and also lauded the work of the United States Coast Guard cutter Cygan.
 The recent report that the body of one of the lost aviators and part of a wrecked plane had been seen in the waters of Portland Canal, was thoroughly investigated by Eckmann and m mb CTS of the Royal Canadian Northwest Mounted Police. The body, it was ascer- tained, was that of a man who had committed suicide, and there was no plane wreckage.
 End Not Yet Contemplated
 Eckmann declared that he would continue his search until it became an absolutely hopeless task to gain information of the fate of the avla- tors or to recover their bodies.
 Asked why he had taken such risks and why he was so persistent in his search, he replied that he felt that he was doing no more for Renahan and Hatcher thar they would do for him, if present conditions were revers d. Ht thought Renahan and H. tc h e1 should have tried to continue fly ing to Ketchikan, if that were at al possible, because lighting on water at this time of the year in Alaska is perilous on account of wind anc waves.
 Danger Is Recognized
 He said he did not believe tha he himself had taken any grea risks. He recognized the danger O being forced down in dangerou waters, but he declared the possl bility was an incident to his work

Era of Costly Horses
 Predicted in Few Years

DURHAM, N. H., Nov. 22.- Horses are likely to be higher in 1887 and 1940 than ever before, says M. Gale Eastman, farm economist at the University of New Hamp- shire.
 Development of tractors, trucks and automobiles lessened the de- mand for horses in recent years and prolonged the period of low prices.
 The end of the tow price period, he says, has left few young horses in the country and as the old ones begin to disappear, the whole coun- try will join scramble to get more.
