CORRECTION
Assistant Prosecutor Did Not Move
Dismissal of Gambling Cases.

@ASSASIoAb : 4O0SCuIOT O1Q NOC move
Dismissal of Gambling Gases.
The Star enormously implied in an
editorial yesterday that the six gambling
cases dismissed by Judge Given in
Police Court on Wednesday were dis
missed on motion of the assistant dis
trict attorney prosecuting the case. The
explanation of the assistant district at
torney, made to his superior, Mr.. Rover,
shows that the cases were dismissed
by the court and not on motion of
the prosecutor. The Star regrets the
erroneous implication, which arose from
the statement Of Judge Given after dis
miSSal of the cases that his action was
taken after hearing the prosecutors
statement regarding the continued fail
ure of the Government witnesses to be
present.
Judge Given declined today to dis
cusS his action and the formal explana-
ton of the assistant prosecutor has not
been made public.

BRITISH FLIERS
MAY SEE TRIAL
TEST IN U. S.
Air Ministry Hinted Likely
to Accept Proposed
Naval Invitation.
BY VIRGIL PINKLEY
United Press stan Correspondent

LONDON, May 15.-Squadron
Leader r. S. Booth and other Brit
ish airship officers may be invited
70 the United States to participate
IN the trial tests Of the Z-R.S.4. The
air ministry was understood to ia
vor such an invitation, which prob
ably will come from the United
States Navy
Britain's sole large airship, the
RICO, lies in the big shed at Car
hngton awaiting the government de-
cisiop as TO the future airship
policy.
Officials Of the air ministry are
anxious that airship officers gain as
much actual flying knowledge as
possible. That was why Booth board
ed the Graf zeppelire during the
German ships recent fight to
Eight and the Holy Land.
Although it is almost certain that
Booth and the first officer of the
R-loo will journey to the United
States, coxswains, meteorological Of
ncess, rlggers and engineers may
also go to see the Z-R.S.4 and her
sister ship.
High aviation officials said 1t
seem unlikely the government will
decide to abandon the airship pro-
gram completely.
Originally the building Of two
ships, the R-101 and R-1Oo, was
sanctioned largely to insure that the
failure Of one ship should not end
the experiment.
What was not foreseen, Of course,
was q disaster of such magnitude,
involving incalculable losses in per-
sonnel as well as material. The dis
aster to R-1o1 has left many great
gaps in Britains equipment Of ex-
perienced airship men.
