Capital during the Curtiss Marine Tro-
ply races on May "a.
Due at PM.
The Sc Navy planes were to leave
Hampton Roads at 1850 pm, accord
ing to word received by the operations
Office at the Anacostia Naval Air Sta
ton. The first squadron was due to
land at the local station at about 3
O'Clock, followed by the others at in
tervals long enough to permit clearing
of the field for later arrivals. Eighty
more planes are due to leave Hampton
Roads tomorrow.
The planes are to be staked down on
the field tonight, owing to lack OF
hangar space for so great a number OF
visitors. The force is to leave Wash
ington at 8:15 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing for New York and other points along
the Atlantic Coast in the greatest dis
play of the Nays aerial forces ever
seen in the Eastern United States.

his New York-Paris flight. Nearly so
planes were in the air in connection
with the Inauguration of President

1t Is said.
The squadrons will be Joined by other

EXPECT EARLY
SETTLEMENT OF
18TH AMENDMENT
Authorities On COnstitu-
ton Doubt Legality Of
Clark's Decision.
BY THOMAS l.. STOKES
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20. U.P>-
The governments decision to take
directly to the supreme court the
New Jersey ruling that the 18th
amendment is invalid was taken to-
day as an indication that the issue
would be settled by early March.
In the ordinary course of appeals
it would take about year for a
supreme court decision to be
reached. Attorney General Mitchell
decided to speed up a decision by
the highest court by eliminating the
usual appellate court procedure. His
instructions to this effect were is
sued, it was believed, in order that
prohibition enforcement would not
be handicapped by any cloud on the
amendment.
Legal experts generally seemed to
think that as matter of actual
law, there was little possibility OF
the supreme court upholding Judge
Clark'S decision.
This view is held by constitution
al lawyers among vets in the House
Representative Leoidas Dyer
Missouri, a wet, ranking member
Of the judiciary committee, said to-
day that he regarded the 18th
amendment as in a different cate
CORY from all other constitutional
amendments, since it took away
certain rights from the people, and
therefore should have been submit
ted to conventions rather than to
legislatures.
The legislatures were elected on
the prohibition issue, he pointed out.
Upholding of this principle, he
said, would not invalidate any other
amendments since none of them
are in this category. There are
some, however, who take the posi-
ton that other amendments would
be invalidated if the 18th amend
ment was declared unconstitutional
on this ground.
Senator Walsh, Democrat of Mon
tana, a leading dry and one of the
Senates foremost constitutional
lawyers, said
Il haven't been able 10 accept
the argument upon which the con-
clusion is reached that the 18th
amendment was not legally adopted,
/ find it difficult to reach the con-
clusion that ratification by legisla-
lures of states would not be ratiti-
cation by the people of the state,
yet ratification by convention would
be.
Neither have been able to agree
that amendments of a particular
class or character may be ratified
by action of legislatures and that
amendments of a different class or
character must be ratified by con-
vention."
