HALTED BY COURT
Action Taken Against Prince
& WhietIy Firm, Recently
Put Off Exchange.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November Legal
steps were taken by the attorney gen.
erals office today to prevent the bank
rupt brokerage firm of Prince g. White
~ or any of its nine partners from en-
gaging in further sales of stocks unless
they disclose the firms and individuals
behind their securities.
The brokerage house was suspended
from the New York Stock Exchange
last month for insolvency, and its two
floor members-G. Lisle Forman and
Morrison B. Orr-were recently eX-
PEELED from the Exchange when they
were found guilty on three counts of
violating rules of the Exchange.
A Supreme Court order issued today
by Justice Byrne directs the firm and
its members to show on November z
why they should not be enjoined, in
dividually and as group, from fur
Their dealings in securities unless they
make the directed disclosure.
Deputy Attorney General Milholland
charged the firm used securities in its
custody for its own benefit rather than
that of its customers.
Partners named in the order include
Orr, Forman, James M. and Gerald w.
Hoyt, Lawrence Criticized, James A..
Stark, Oscar B. Van zandt, Otto An
tonseu and Felix T. Hughes.

Amos Parrish Saws

Ladies and gentlemen, are you
fashion-right?
Don't know whether you are
or motor even what it's all
about?
Well, cheer up! You'll have
an accurate guide regularly IN
The Washington Times, beginning
Monday.
Amos Parrish, famous fashion
authority, is to write for The
Times every day. He will tell
men and women what things are
fashionable and what things are
pasSe-clothing, furniture, house
hold furnishings, interior deco
rationS, and whatnot.
Il Style Inexpensive
Now don't get the idea that
you have to be a millionaire to
be fashionable. The most mex
pensive things can be correct in
fashion details, as many a $2O-a-
week stenographer has proved 70
the 400.
Fashion, says Amos Parrish,
has become an important Sfactor
in modern life. No longer Is it

How To Fly
LESSON NO. so
OF The Washington Times Flying Club
By CAPT. ROY FONKE
Aa~o nj EUrs
BY CAPT. ROY FONkE
AerOmGteaicGl E1pQineer

For the student pilot as well
as the student mechanic, there
are many things of Importance
to remember. The student or
even the experienced flier who
forgets does not belong in the
game and he will not remain In
it any great length Of time.
Flying will always have to be
taught; it can never be learned
merely by "monkeying" with it,
as in the case of the automobile.
The average man can take an
automobile into a large field and
eventually be able to drive it, but
not so with the airplane.
Few men, such as the Wright
Brothers, Glenn CurtisS, and
Bleriot, have taught themselves
the art Of flying. But many of
the contemporaries OF these great
pioneers gave up their lives in
their attempts to solve the prob
lens Of flying.
Flying today is very much
easier than it was in the early
days Of the Wright Brothers and
Glenn CurtiSS, and much easier,
too, than it was even 10 years
ago.
AS a part of the equipment Of
the modern airplane we find
many indicators and instruments
that tell the pilot just what his
craft is doing. The pilot of the
modern airplane, can tell his alti-
tude, his speed, his degree Of
banking or pitching movement, as
well as his direction in flight.
1t is even possible for the
experienced pilot to direct his
craft while absolutely blindfolded,
as in the case Of the famous
Jimmy Doolittle recently in New
York in a test flight to prove
that such a feat was possible.
Several years, ago the CurtisS
Corporation issued Q published
list of hints for the benefit Of
pilots using their machines. Be
low you will, find a few Of these
hints. This information is of
considerable value to the student
The Washington times., 1930-03-14

mechanic, as well as to the stu
dent pilot. It is suggested tina
the student memorize the lis
given below:
1. Always inspect the motor
thoroughly before starting.
2. Always be sure to have
plenty Of oil, gasoline and
water before attempting to
start. All three are vital fac
tors to any motor.
3 Be sure to keep both OIL
and gasoline clean and flee
from water.
4. Oil all exposed parts daily.
S. Be sure to retard magnetic
before starting; this will pre-
vent q serious accident.
6. Turn on switch before try
ing to start.
Z. Start the motor with the
throttle only part way open.
8. Do not run the motor
idle for long periods Of time
This action is very harmful to
the motor.
8. LubricatiOn IS most essen.
tial; watch it very closely.
10. Treat the propeller with
profound respect; it is the
business end Of the motor.
ii. When the motor is hot,
allow it to idle for . few
minutes before turning off the
switch. This action inSures
forced circulation Of the cool
ing water until the cylinder
walls have cooled considerably
and allows the valves to cool
and prevents warping. b
IL. Avoid the destructive dis
ease known as "tinkeritis:" that
is, when the motor is working
satisfactorily, leave IL alone.
IL. Be sure to inspect daily
all bolts and nuts, and be sure
to keep them well tightened.
IA. Be sure to stop the motor
at once upon detecting q knock,
grind, or any other noise for
elgn to perfect motor operation.
1t may save the motor from
possible ruin.
The Washington times., 1930-03-14

a matter Of interest only to q
few. Now everyone wants TO
know about fashion and be in
fashion.
In his whats In Fashion"
articles, Mr.. Parrish will report
the correct fashions In all
branches Of modern life. The
forecasts made by his organiza-
ton, which has offices in New
York and Paris. are based on
methods Of fashion analysis that
have been introduced into hun
dreds of department. stores, spe-
cialty shops, and other rekail,
wholesale, and manufacturing con-
Germs by Amos Parrish and his
associates.
Forecasts Fashions
Mr.. Parrish's articles will not
only interpret the present fasn-
ions but also will forecast the
new themes and trends and pre-
dict what win be the fashions in
the future. =

Battered ana grOggy from re-
peated impacts Of the new Grundy
high tariff alliance, the remains
Of the insurgent-coalition in the
Senate prepared today for their
last stand-an attempt to reduce
the duties on hides and leather.
So confident is the new alliance
that Senators Watson Of Indiana,
Republican floor leader, and NC
Nary (RO Of Oregon, assistant
leader, last night informed Presi-
dent Hoover that the long pend
ing bill would be passed by the
Senate by the end Of next week.
But the leader and his assistant
also told Mr.. Hoover it would
contain new high rates, which
the President is understood not
to favor.
Named For Grundy
Even the most. optimistic of the
old insurgent-coalition see no
chance to stop the Grundy ma
chine in the hides and leather
battle. They have renamed the
tariff bill the "Grundy BILL" al
though it is officially the Hawley-
Smoot bill. This in recognition
of the part the Senator from
Pennsylvania has played in the
writing of new high rates after
the control had been wrenched
from the coalition.
Yesterday was one series Of de-
feats for the old insurgent-coali-
tion, starting with sugar and &C.
ment and going down the line
to rayon, the last measure voted
upon. An attempt to reduce the
duty on rayon from As to 40
cents a pound was lost by a 38-to-
80 vote.
Prior to the rayon vote the
Grundy machine had voted, 80
to 90, to place a Is per cent ad
valorenn on all cotton cloth con-
tanning more than is per cent
wool under the higher wool
tariffs. This had been bitterly
fought by Senator Walsh CD of
Massachusetts,.
What was left of the old insur-
gent-coalition, which for six
months had control of the bill,
were today marShaling eheir
forces for one last try at beating
the increases asked on hides and
leather, but with apparently little
hope Of success.
People Of U. s. to Decide
''We are going to go down fight
ing, and let the people of the
United States decide who was
right" Senator Blaine (R.O of Wis
consin said today. We have done
our best-let them choose be-
tween the insurgent-coalition and
Grundy.",
Although Grundy's two amend.
mentS-pig iron and aluminium
were beaten on the floor. he steam
rollered through all the others
that he was interested in. Admin.
iStration and coalition leaders
alike pointed out that the Penn
Sylvanian still had an ace in the
hole for when the bill goes to con-
ference he Is more than likely to
see his amendments inserted,

complete annihilation Of the insur-
Grundy of Pennsylvania, the
"granddaddy Of ali lobbyists" For
more than a week, under constant
fire, he has been the most active
man in leading the fight for

given credit now with the almost
complete anihilation of the insur-
gent-coalition tariff machine,
