BRITAIN WAITS
ROYAL HEIR

LONDON, May 20 CU.SJ. An
event in the household of the
Duke of York on which all Brit
ain hangs anxiously is expected
during the second week of June,
it is learned from sources close
to the dukes Piccadilly residence.

AS long as the Prince of Wales
does not marry British tradition
regarding the throne naturally
centers about the hope for a
male heir to the Duke of York,
who Is next in the line of sue

Princess Elizabeth, daughter of
the duke, and now 4 years old,
is in direct line to the throne,
but Britain would favor a male
heir as the second child of the

BOND PROPOSED
FOR j. 8. DRYS

The bill to make careless pro.
hibition agents pay for their
crimes" met with hearty wet sup.
port and little comment by the
drys today.
The bill, introduced by Senator
Hawes CD of Missouri, would
place every agent under $4,000
bond for the payment of dam
ages for negligently causing per
sonal injury or death or dam
age to persons or property. Sena-
tor Jones (RO of Washington.
said:
II don't know very much
about the bill. Other Govern
ment officers are not required
to post bonds. 1 will have to
study the bill before 1 decide"
Senator Walsh CD of MasSa-
chusetts, said:
II think that it is a splendid
measure, and one that has long
been needed"
Hawes said:
There have been more than
1900 lives lost in the enforce
ment Of prohibition laws, and
the reckless type of official
should be made more careful
and cautious. The bill will af-
ford protection to the public

DYNAMITE : RUINS
VA. A.FISHER|ES

RICHMOND Va, May 90
Dynamiting for fish in Virginia
streams is threatening the ruin
of many miles Of fishing waters
according to Maj. A. Willis Rob
Nertson, chairman Of the Vir
ginia State Commission of Game
and Inland Fisheries.
Unless the public helps the
personnel of the commission in
putting an end to this prac'
tice, Major Robertson said, fish.
erman will be cheated Of much
of their sport because of the
wasteful destruction caused by
dynamiting. This method OF
obtaining fish destroys at least
100 small fish Of no use to
anyone for each adult fish
taken, he said, adding.
"The, practice Of dynamit-
ing Is getting entirely too
prevalent throughout the
State. Ger inly no. good citi-
zen can cOndOne dynamiting.
1t has been Outlawed for years
and is a practice that works
q hardship on the general
public.
eff the public would arise
up in arms against such prac-
tices and local courts impose
the maximum penalty, we
could break it up.
"The public cannot escape
responsibility IN the premises
merely by saying it is the
duty Of the game wardens to
enforce the law. With hun
dreds of miles of fishing
waters, In every county, 1t is
impossible for one warden to
be on every stream all the
time. Neither can a game
warden work both day and
night.
"Unless the public helps
us in this matter, many miles
Of fishing waters will be alb.
sOlutely ruined"
No section of the State is
entirely immune from this
practice, Major Robertson de-
clared.,

EYE
D|SPELS FOG

GLOUCESTER. Mass, May 29
1N.SJ.-Fog, aviation's greatest
enemy. seemed dispelled as a
menace yesterday, following an
nouncement by John Hays Ham
mond, jr., noted radio research
worker, that he had invented a
radio eye" adaptable to air
planes, which would permit the
pilot to view landing field, no
matter how thick the murky
cloak.
The invention works on the
principal of television. An auto
matte radio transmitter on the
plane sends out a continuous
signal on which operators at three
radio compass stations, situated
in a triangle around the airport,
train their direction finders.
The bearings of the planes are
then automatically transmitted to
a television station near the field
which has miniature of the air
port. Above 1t is the radio eye"
The plane picks up a picture of
the miniature. With each move
ment Of the plane. the miniature
airport moves accordingly. No
matter where the plane may be, or
in what position, the picture
picked up on his television screen
will reproduce vision, exactly the
same as if he saw the real field
over the side Of the cockpit.

In American foreign policy. the
question OF recognition Of the Soviet
government by the United States
appeared today to have been ISL
ed further into the background
than at any other time since Presi-
dent HocSer took office.
AS enunciated by Charles Evans
Hughes when secretary Of state. the
American policy with r-gard to the
soviets was that a settlement must
be made Of official and private
obligations OF Russia to the United
States and its citizens and the
soviet must cease the spreading OF
propaganda designed to overthrow
American institutions. This policy
was continued as that OF the Cool
idge and Hoover administrations.
At the time President Hoover took
office there was considerable specu-
lation that the United States would
recognize the communist govern
ment.
Prominent writer's even went so
far as to predict that recognition
would be extended within two years
after Inauguration day.
With the halfway mark OF the
Hoover administration term rapidly
approaching. however. officials to-
day remarked that the position Of
the two countries Is probably fur
Their apart than at any period since
1922 when Ambassador Boris Bakh-
metieff OF the provisional govern
ment closed the old imperial en-
bassy here.
It was pointed out that the
soviet's reply to Secretary Slim
sons plea for adherence to the
principles Of the Kellogg pact dur
ing the Chinese Soviet difficulties
was construed In high administra-
ton quarters as a distinct affront
TO the American government. In
this instance. Secretary Stimson
sought the cooperation or the sig
natories of the treaty to prevent
what appeared 10 be imminent hos
tilities between the two countries
The Chinese government replied
promptly with assurances while
the Moscow government replied In
what was considered by some off,
Gals 70 Re a critical and almost
satirical vein.

market with products ranging from

much industrial and labor opposI-
ton TO the soviet regime this req
while recognitionists are considered
by some here to have -uffered IN

trading in the Chicago wheat pit.
The extent OF Russian repudlated
obligations to American citizens IS
estimated roughly at $500. 1000
