BID CHALLENGES
A|RMA|L POLICIES
Puts Theory of Precedent of
Pioneer Concern SquareIy
Up to Brown.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A bid from newly formed aviation
company. the United Aviation Co. Of
Pittsburgh, today lay in the Post once
Department, silent challenge to at
least two policies on administration Of
the Watres airmail act.
The United Aviation Co, offer OF 81
per cent of the ST. per mile maximum
was low bid for the new airmail route
from New York to Los Angeles via
Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Columbus, In
dianapolis, st. Louis and Kansas City.
It was In competition with eva per
cent Joint bid of Western Air Express
and Transcontinental Air Transport.
In committee hearings on the Watres
bill Postmaster General Brown was
frank in urging its provisions as q
financial aid to the Arms already in the
airmail field, many Of which offered
testimony they had suffered losses under
the old law. The legislation was re-
ferred to as being, in effect, a subsidy
for encouragement OF air passenger
service, so this country would forge to
the front among nations in commercial
aviation.
Brown States Views.
Brown said he believed this financial
announcement should be given eStab-
liSied concerns of proven worth and re-
sponsibility rather than take the hazard
OF possibly lending Government aid to
speculative concerns.
Contracts with six pioneer airmail
lines expired last May, and had not the
WatreS bill passed, Brown would have
to award contracts for six years on q
poundage basis, impractical for passen-
ger planes. Passenger services were
operating at heavy loss and needed
revenue from the airnail.
It was estimated the present act would
increase the air mail part Of the postal
defloit from approximately six million
dollars to approximately eight and .
half million.
The bid Of United Aviation, chartered
August ia combination of three
passenger-carrying companies now oper-
ating along the proposed route-put the
theory of the precedence of the pioneer
concern squarely up TO the Postmaster
General for decision.
Joint Bid Qualities.
Immediate interest in the aviation
company bid, however, did not lay in
the opinion of Post ONCE officials that
probably none Of its subsidiary menl-
bers had met the night flying requires
a 250-mile route. This requirement was
set forth In the advertisement for bids
with the proviso that In event of q joint
bid, experience of either company would
be acceptable. BY bidding with Robert
son Aircraft Corporation, Southwestern
Air Fast Express qualified to make the
lone bid for the new Atlanta-Los
Angeles route, an offer Of 100 per cent
Of the 81 as per mile maximum.
Of1cials Of the aviation company de-
MED they were fling their bid as any
sort of test. They said they we're
perfectly serious in wanting the bust
ness"
The Post once Department an
nounced bids would be given immediate
consideration, adding investigation
would be made as to whether bids re-
ceived conformed in every particular
10 the terms laid down In the adver-
tisements Tor bids issued August 2"

ADVICE WORTH CONSIDERING

In concluding his speech to the
Daughters of the American Revolu-
tion at Washington recently Presi-
dent Hoover said:
1--WE have come to the belief that
our contribution can best be made
by our good offices and a helpfulness
based upon independence from any
combination pledged to the use of
force. 1 believe it is clear that the
United States can more effectively
and wisely work for peace without
commitments to use coercion to en-
force settlements. Our position was
made clear in a statement issued
jointly by the prime minister of Eng
land and myself at the time of his
memorable visit of good will to this
country. We said:
"'The part of each of our govern
ments in the promotion of world
peace will be different, as one will
never consent to become entangled
in European diplomacy and the other
is resolved to pursue policy of ac-
tive cooperation with its European
neighbors, but each of our govern
ments will direct it's thoughts and
influence toward securing and main
tanning the peace of the world
within these principles which
are in full accord with the traditions
we have from our forefathers, we
should hold an open mind and en-
gage in advancement of the methods
by which the controversies in the
world may find pacific settlement
and by which we can cooperate in
the prevention of war. For the
American people want peace in the
world, not alone as a matter of mate
rial interest to our prosperity and
welfare, but because gains to the
moral and spiritual forces of the
world are made through peace and
not through war"
Coming in the month Of the ami
of Thomas Jefferson, one of
our first great nationalists who stood
with President Washington in warn
ing us against entangling alliances
and angerous foreign commitments
should have double significance.
Many problems of an international
character confront us and the adj
and the Senate will
doubtless in dealing with them keep |
IN mind the historical traditions of
)ur foreign policy.

LEGGE CALLS FARMERS
TO MAKE NEXT STEP

The Federal Farm Board has DEM
onstrated that it can work effective
Iy and the next move is up to the
farmers themselves, according to
Alexander Legge, Chairman of the
Board, in an interview in the current
number of The Country Home.
The article points out how the
Board successfully battled with
spectators and stabilized the prices
of grain by purchasing 33,O0O,OOO
bushels of wheat. AS soon as grain
IS kept in the hands of producers,
Teggee declares, such battles over
price fixing will not be necessary.
The great question, now, says
Legge, is how far the producers will
really get together and act, and col
Iectively hold together so that they
get the benefit to be obtained
through cooperative processing, of
marketing their grain or other farm
PRODUCTS. He does not envision any
Short cut to the complete solution of
Farm troubles, but declares that eff
6cient machinery is now ready to

Afridi tribesmen who descended on
Peshawar from the hills apparently
have let up in their plans for an attack

some casualties among the invaders.
Most of the fighting has occurred In
the lower Bara Valley and at the west
ern end of Khajuri Plain, where the
Afridis have encamped since they set
out to capture the key city to the Khy-
Der Pass.
The communique told how some de-
tachments moved 10 the area south OF
Bara Fort Thursday night and were
met Dy plckebS OF the ue4eHdlilk 'LnA-
tary forces and the frontier Constaou-
larry. Some of the attackers were killed.
other parties, totaling several hum
dred, went closer to Peshawar and con-
cealed themselves in caves southeast OF
the city. Others evacuated their caves
west of Khajuri Plain and moved to
similar retreats south of the Bara.

Another party, concealed in q tower
5 miles northeast of Bara Fort, fed to
a nearby garden at the approach OF
British cavalry. They were shelled out.

abandoned a plan for a mass attack.
