occasion needless expense. Perhaps, too.

Corps would be sure way to avoid
industrializing the Army.
In my Judgment, what I have sug-
gested with respect to personnel of the
Regular establishment and of the
civilian components offers real tangible,
appreciable savings Curtailment of
the housing program would cnsue;
there would also be an ultimate annual
saving on account Of pay allowances of
officers of more than $4,000, 900: the
large expenses, which necesSitate ap-
preparations for the Regul7r establish
ment incident to giving training to civil
units would be avoided; and, finally the
appropriations for the organized Re-
serves and the c. NJ. T. c. trainees
might be dispensed with. For 1882. the
latter two appropriations amount to
S9,3l6,000. The large demand upon
Regular personnel for training civil
components has been a constant source
of complaint by Army officers, since
able officers believe the proper place
for them is with Regular troops"

by Maj. Gen. James E. Fechet, chief of
the Army Air Corps.
Details of the Single crack-up which
has thus far occurred in an estimated
100000 miles of flying were made
known by the authorities tonight.
The statement revealed that Lieut.
Jewett of the 88th Observation SQUAD
Of the 104th Flying Group had strictly
obeyed orders to bring his plane down
in the water and thereby had averted
a possible tragedy.
The crash aroused intense excitement
among the throngs crowding the Brook
Ign water front. and several women be-.
came hysterlcaI as the plane hit the
water.
The pilot and his companion had de-
liberately chosen the water spill. risk
ing their own lives when the alternative
was to descend amid spectators on a
sandy beach strip
The plane was riding rough air chan
nels, when 1t suddenly left the forna-
ton and began dropping For a time
it leveled out and seemed out of diff
culties. Then it dropped and leveled
again. Once more it lost altitude
sharply. Just ahead lay the strip of
beach where a landing could be made
But Pilot Jewett saw the crowds dotting
the beach and turned the ships nose.
Instantly 1t Tell pIummet-like into the
water.
The crowd gasped. The impact shot
spray into the air. The pilot and pho
tographer were seen to leap
AS the spray subsidized they were seen
climbing a wing of the plane and in a
few minutes a Coast Guard cutter
picked them up.

from its New York bases to the vicinity
of the National Capital is to take place
Friday and the pursuit squadrons,
leaders of the vanguard are expected
to begin arriving over the Capital about
/ o'clock, at which time all commercial
planes have been ordered to stand clear
of Boiling Field to prevent the posi-
bility of aerial collisions during the
difficult process Of landing the greatest
number of planes ever on the ground at
one time in Washington
The squadrons are to spend Friday
Saturday and Sunday nights at their
bases in the Washington area. including
Boiling Field and Washington Hoover

squadron commanders and individual
pilots will he allowed tolerance OF not
to exceed is seconds in timing their
take-offs and arrivals at rendezvous
points.
LeeWay Cut Down.
1--WE have gradually BEN cutting
down the leeway of the squadrons in
timing their movements" Gen. Foulois
said 1.-Two years ago it was all right
if they got away within so seconds of
the specified tina. Last year the al
lowance was reduced to 80 seconds.
This year they are operating on a
quarter minute margin"
The maneuvers over Washington will
call into action more than $50 military
planes. Because of the experience now
being obtained by the pilots, squadron
group and wing leaders, the review,
which will be taken from span of the
new Arlington Memorial Bridge, is ex-
pected to be the finest ever held by a
assembly OF the squadrons, all of which
move at various speeds, are being
worked out at the cost of infinite labor
during the present maneuvers. The
rendezvous for the Washington review
is above the Potomac River below
Alexandria, Va, and the tremendous
aerial spectacle may be witnessed from
either bank Of the Potomac between
Alexandria and Washington, though
Potomac Park, especially between the
Highway and Arlington Memorial
Bridges, will be the best point of
vantage, according to the preliminary
staff plans. The review will be fol-
lowed by a combat demonstration BY
some Of the worlds finest pilots. The
pursuit unit will be the famous 95th

23.--Hardened and experienced by DAYS
of the most gruelling maneuvers held
by any great air force, since the World
War, officers of the command staff of
the First Air Division today began
drawing detailed operations plans for
maneuverS over the National Capital
on Memorial day, next Saturday, which
are expected to stand as the supreme
achievement of post war military avn
alton anywhere in the world No eff
forts will be spared by staff officers and
pilots of the division to make the Wash
ington demonstration a fitting climax
to the weeks of maneuvers which rank
as the most elaborate the world has
seen. The Washington exhibition prob
ably will be the last great mass avia-
ton demonstration for some years. as
the future plans CT the Army Air Corps
contemplate only annual training oper-
atoms for smaller units.
The main purposes of the maneuvers
now in progress have to do with the
development of ground organizations
for handling the concentration and OPP
erations of mighty aerial combat
force, and these aims are being realized
so completely that further efforts along
long time to come, in the opinion of
ranking officers of the division. 1t is
likely that out of the 1881 maneuvers
will come equipment for the ground
handling of the Nations air force
which will establish it as one of the
most efficient in the world.
For Tactical Development.
The 1929 maneuvers in Ohio and
those OF last year in California, held
on a smaller scale, were intended to
develop tactical operations, and they
resulted in many new types of military
airplanes, some of which have gone
into service in the squadron, others be-
ing in the test stage. This years OPP
erations are expected to result in vi
tally important regiments of ground
operations, communications and COM
mand methods.
The Washington demonstration will
be the most difficult of all to handle,
because of a dearth of airport facilities
in the vicinity of the National Capital,
in the opinion of Brig. Gen. Benjamin
D. Foulois, commander of the division.
ut is going to be necessary to send the
bombardment and attack. squadrons
down to Langley Field, which is ITO
miles away from Washington to the
southeast" Gen. Foulois said.
"Other souadrons will have to be sta
toned as far to the north as Bellanca
Field, Wilmington, Del, and Middle
town Air Depot, near Harrisburg, Pa
They will be scattered over an area
$50 miles long, which obviously makes
the command problem complicated and
difficult"
Because Of the scattering Of the
forces the review over Washington,
which will take place early Saturday

There will be 72 holes of medal play. IS to-day and the same mum Der Thursday, Friday and Saturday Unlike the Los Angeles tournament, in which practically the same field competed Monday, the last 36 holes are played in two days.
 Hard to Figure
 It is difficult to name a favorite. As was the case at Los Angeles, an unexpected victor like Ed Dudley, the Wilmington, Del, pro, who fin- ished with a card of 285 for 82 holes, may appear.
 The same thing happened here at Agua Caliente last year. Gene Sarazen. American-born Italian pro- fessional from New York, won first money with 295 strokes after being reckoned out of the money at the end of 54 holes.
 Horton Smith and Al Espinosa were tied for second last year with 297.
 The closeness shows that a stroke or two is likely to cost someone a lot of. money. First place winner will get $10,000, second place win- ner will get $3.500.
 Some of the Boys
 w Hllc nO OulSldIulIIB ldNOTltc CdI be named safely, Dudley must be considered in view of his showing at Los Angeles. Then there are Ed die Loos. Al Espinosa, Macdonald Smith, Tommy Armour, Leo Diegel, Walter Hagen, Horton Smith and Frank Walsh.
 Espinosa probably will be in the big money. While he doesn't rank as probable first place winner, he usually gets a gOodly piece of prize money. He was tied for second with Loos at Los Angeles.
 Hagen admits that putting is his trouble at present. In the Los An geles open he played his best golf in California.
 Admits His Weakness
 "I know that I never played bet ter in my life excepting on the greens," he said. 'I am putting so poorly that I cannot afford to play safe. If I take the safe course to a green I am so far away from the pin that am likely to take three puts. In the old days, I would get down in two butts, no matter how far away I was"

 Storms approach when air pres sure falls and the professor says that lessened pressure is accom- panied by passage of positive elec- tricity from the earth into the atmosphere.
