NEW YORK, January 24.-American
aircraft companies in 1880 produced g.
664 commercial and military planes,
valued at $2l ,469, 1853, it was shown to-
day In statistics compiled by the Aero
nautical Chamber Of Commerce for
publication In its forthcoming aircraft
yearbook.
while aircraft production during
1880 was less than half that Of 1929, /"
the report said, sales more than kept
pace with manufacturing schedules
throughout the year TO enable the
movement Of stocks on hand resulting
from the period Of overproduction in
1929. II appeared that these assembled
inventories had been substantially de-
pleted by the opening Of 1881.
"Airplanes sold during 1880 totaled
SIPS, as compared with the 1854 pro-
duced. No sales statistics were COM
piled in 1929 to afford a comparison.
An analysis Of airplanes produced
and sold during 1880 indicates a con-
Hnued predominance Of the open cock
pit biplane, and particularly the three
place open cockpit biplane. Biplanes
generally continued to outnumber
Snonoplanes, with ITO commercial b.
planes produced and 1913 monoplanes.
In the multi-engined field, however

MISS DE Doe PLANS
TOASK FOR APPEAL
Clara Bows Former SeCre.
tary BIameS Rex Bell for
Her PrediCament.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, January 24.-On the
broad shoulders of the Aim cowboy, Rex
Bell, Daisy De Doe placed the blame
today for her conviction for the theft
of ss25 from Clara Bow.
Rex, she said, went cunning for her
job as secretary of the screens queen
OF flappers and dug up the charges to
get me out of the way"
Daisy is "out of the way" for the
moment, at least.
From behind the bars of the county
Jail she talked freely with reporters.
She told about her plans and thoughts
and her face again was all smiles.
Plans to Appeal.
Although she believes Bell, Miss Bows
boy friend" responsible for her fate,
that is not the most important thing
in the events of the past two weeks for
her. Right now, she wants to get out
dict of guilty, which jury returned
against her yesterday.
One to 10 years in prison or free
dom on probation are the penalties
provided by law for her crime. She
said she will not apply for probation,
but will file notice of appeal when she
is brought up for .entence on Monday
before Judge William Doran.
Daisy's explanation of how she got
into Jail is that Bells contract expired
at a studio and he had no job. He de-
cided. she said. to get Daisy out of the
way so he might have her position.
Daisy claimed Clara knew all about
the clothes she bought and the car she
drove and knew she couldn't do it on
SIS week. She said Clara told her
to buy what she wanted, but because
Clara "is Just a kid" Bell talked her
into believing that IT stole them"
Jail Not So Good.
IT didn't steal anything so how could
be guilty?" she asked.
Jail, Daisy said isn't place where
she would want to stay very long. The
surroundings are not ell that could be
desired, compared to the luxury of her
life with Clara and blue denim dresses
don't display pretty blondes to the best
advantage.
When all Of this is behind her, she
wants to start fulfilling a long.cherish-
ed DESIRE career on the stage. First
she hopes to make some money in
vaudeville, "or something like 1t. you
know" and then spend 1t in study, after
which her real career begins.

OIL PRICE PROBE
PROPOSED BY NYE
Senator Wants Committee of
Five to Determine if Trust
Laws Are Violated.

~ the Associated Press.
An investigation Of the oil industry
was proposed In the Senate yesterday
by Senator Nye, Republican, North
Dakota, to determine whether prices of
crude oil and gasoline are being main
tanned by price agreement or other
practices in violation Of the antitrust
laws.
After speaking on his proposed bill to
put teeth" in the law creating the
Federal Trade Commission to protect
the independent oil operators and mer-
chants from monopolies, Nye offered
the oil inquiry resolution, bait asked to
be excused from serving on the investi-
eating committee because of the press
of other duties.
The resolution went over until tomor-
row under the rules. It would create g.
special committee of five Senators to
conduct the investigation. Measures to
place q tariff on oil and otherwise re-
States are pending before the Senate
Commerce Committee.
Would Sift Low Prices.
The special committee would. be in
structed to inquire into the causes of
the low price of crude. and margins
between the price of the crude and
the selling price Of y-products; whether
these conditions have resulted from
any conspiracy in restraint of trade"
and whether the prices have been con-
trolled by any corporation, joint stock
company or corporate combination.
It also would determine whether any
agreements existed between oil or pipe
line operators, and if so, the effect of
this relationship on the production and
sale of oil and gasoline.
Alleged determinations, boycotts and
blaeklists against particular fields also
would be investigated, as we'll as profits
OF companies refining and marketing
petroleum in this country for 1928,
1929 and 1880.
Small Business Crushed.
Addressing himself to his bill to give
the Trade Commission judicial powers
to enforce its findings, Senator Nye
said small business in this country is
being crushed by the "juggernaut of big
business and monopolies"
Community life, he added, is being
destroyed by chain stores, chain banks
and monophes. His bill, he said, would
restore economic independence by re
establishing community interests and
individual initiative on the part Of the
small business man and factory owner,
the farmer and independent oil pro-
Queer"
He quoted ]. Edward Jones, an indie
pendent oil producer, as saying the
large oil companies were maintaining
crude prices below a fair cost of pro-
duction while holding gasoline prices
at such high levels as TO create huge
profits.
Nye said the average price Of mid
continent crude was $204 a barrel in
1925, and $1.20 in 1929. while the aver
age for gasoline in 50 cities increased
from 1909 cents to 1929 cents Q gall
lon in the same period.
