LONDON, August 29.-Ramsay Mac
Donald was repudiated in his own con-

OF Durham, passed resolution de-
handing that he resign as the repre-
sentative OF the division in Parliament
The resolution will be referred to
meeting Of delegates at Wheatley Hill
September IL, where it probably will be
affirmed as a matter of course.
The action was taken in the face Of a
long letter from the prime minister, in
which he defended his action In head
ing the new national government. and
set forth his belief that only by sane
tionfng a small cut In the dole was he
able to insure its continuance at all.

Pending an announcement by the
prime minister Of his intentions the
situation remained obscure. His letter
To the Seaman executive was inter-
preted as leaving little doubt that he
would resign from the House Of Com

ne would wait until time for the general

Should he resign now il might be
necessary for him TO accept designa-

AIR RACE CROWD
/. IS KEEN FOR SPEED.
Dizzy Pace in Early Tests
Whets Taste for National
Classic.
BY JOSEPH A. EDGERToN,
Aviation Editor OF The Star.

CLEVELAND AIRPORT, August 20.
More speed" is the cry at the
National Air Races. the annual classic
of aviation which opened here today,
and the airplane designers. builders
and the country's picked pilots are re-
spending in fashion which leaves lit
tie room for doubt that real sensations
are in store for the next 10 days.
For years, since the Army and Navy
withdrew from Schneider competition,
the development Of racing planes has
been neglected. This year the Nations
aviation industry Is beginning to make
up for its past neglect. and has
launched a program which not only
promises to make these races the most
spectacular in the long history OF the
annual classic but threatens TO topple
all the eountrys previous speed records.
1t is e speed hungry crowd gathered
here at the opening day. with an ap-
petite whetted by trials Of special
racing planes during the past few days.
and by rlnors of even faster planes
which are being held under cover until
the moment for their appearance on
the race course.
Straight Courses Arranged.
In response to the demand for the
greatest speed man and machinery is
able to produce, Pop" Cleveland, con-
test director of this show. has ar
ranged a series of straightaway speed
runs over measured course, in which
pilots VIII not have to worry about py-
lon turns, which cut speeds, or any
thing else but getting out Of their
aerial comets the last notch of per-
Torrance Of which they are capable.
There are, on the great Cleveland
Airport today. airplanes the like of
which this country never has seen.
They are a foretaste Of the aircraft Of
tomorrow. stub-winged projectiles which
make miles look like city blocks. Lee
Shoenhair's Gee Bee is one of them
which has been seen in action In trial
runs yesterday Shoenhair roared of
what he claimed was a 250-miles-an-
hour clip and then landed, saying that
he had only opened his throttle part
way so as to save his motor, which is
new.
Il guess my plane is a little old
fashioned" said Capt Frank Hawks,
whose speed records have startled two
continents, when he compared his ia
nous scarlet Mystery with the new Gee
Bee and others OF It's KIND IN CONVEX
sation with the writer day or two ago.
I'D like to have a faster one to keep
up with the swim, but what am l going
to use for money!"
DOOlittle Speed Startling.
Cleveland was startled, but not at all
incredulous, today when reports came
that Jimmy Doolittle had burned up
the miles between Chicago and Los
Angeles in six hours in the new racing
plane which he will fly in the Trans
continental Derby tomorrow. Though
the reports later were found to be a
little short of fact. they are an indica-
