Group at National Races
Rule That Speed Is
Secondary.
BY JOHN OWEN
United Press staff Correspondent

CLEVELAND, Sept. IA group
of leading American men and wom-
en- airplane pilots, contestants in
the 1881 national sweepstakes
derby, today went on record as
favoring safety rather than speed
as a means of promoting CONNER
cial aviation.
The derby fliers met here at the
opening of the fourth day of the
national air races to discuss plans
for the next transcontinental der
by, a controversy over handicap
derbies or a straight speed dash
across the country arising.
Answering charges that the
handicap race is unfair to pilots
with faster planes, Mrs. Florence
Barnes, Santa Monica, chairman of
the meeting, said the race was to
attract attention to aviation as a
safe means of transportation. She
said it was not a mad dash for
fame and fortune.
Safety in Advance
more than fifty planes raced
across the country without mishap,
Mrs. Barnes said. THAT means
something for aenonautics."
Mrs. Gladys ODonnell of Long
Beach, Cal, pilot of the plane rated
the fastest in the handicap event,
led opposition to handicap racing.
She charged the race ended here
Sunday was unfair, and that her
plane, rated at I'll miles an hour,
was capable of only 164 miles at
top speed.
The entire army pursuit squadron
of seventy-two planes was to ar
rive today from Selfridge field for
tactical maneuvers. Twelve naval
patrols boats" were to follow the
army's massed aerial strength in
review before the air show grand
stand. The navy's flying boats we're
to leave Rockaway, N. Y, where
they stopped Monday night after a
flight from Norfolk, Va.
lCallan TO BE HOnOred
Today was to be Italian day at
the races. Officials were to pay
special tribute to Lieutenant-Col
Mario De Bernardo, Italian member
of the international team of exhi-
bition flierS, whose aerial stunts
have been a daily feature of the
race program. The Italian air king
Monday revealed plans for a non
stop flight from Cleveland to Rome.
Qualifying dasheS for the Thomp-
son trophy race, speed classic of the
air show, were scheduled on today's
program. The program also includes
a civilian acrobatic exhibition, auto
gyro stunting, parachute jumping
contests, and an amphibian novelty
race.
Amateur pilots have signified
their interest in the New York to
Cleveland race, announced Monday
as an added attraction to the air
show. A number of fiers already
have entered the 400-mile dash,
which will be held Friday. The
race is open to both men and wom-
en- pilots.

WFBM TO PUT ITS NEW
TRANSMITTER INTO USE
5,OO0-Watt Tubes to Be Inaugurated
on Wednesday.

Wednesday morning, a new 1000
watt transmitter will be used by
WFBM in the broadcasting of it's

equipment will make use of two
5,000-watt tubes.
An accessory outfit will be con-
structed within the next few weeks
which can be used in case of tempo
rary shutdown of the larger trans
mission.

FRANCE VIEWS
DEBT AS Gift
WATSON SAYS
Senator Declares Envoy
Told Him His Nation Did
Not Intend to Pay.
BY BEN STERN

France does not intend to nav
for war supplies purchased from the
United States after the war. One
Of its high commissioners told me
this" charged Senator James E.
Watson in his address at the meet
ing Of. the Irvington Republican
Club Monday night.
Watson, telling of the incident in
which this statement was made to
him, pledged that he never wound
vote for cancellation of war debts
or the United States entry into the
League of Nations.
Immediately after the war, we
sold $2,000,0O0 900 worth of war sup
plies, already in France, for $780,
100000 to the French government.
Later the French high commits
sioners came over here TO talk about
their debts.
Don't Intend to Pay
Il could not talk French and but
one Of them could speak English.
One night at dinner, he turned
10 me and said:
1 don't want to fool you, Sen
ator Watson. We do not intend to
pay for the war supplies
THAT is the attitude of the
French on the problem of their war
debts, asserted Watson.
"As long as Senator Robinson and
myself are in the senate, 1 know
there will be two votes from Indi-
ana against war debt cancellation
and against entry to the League of
Nations"
Declaring that the Hoover
moratorium saved Germany from
going into chaos and retained that
nation as a wall between Soviet
Russia and the remainder of Europe,
Watson launched into a TRADE
against Communism and declared
himself in favor of more stringent
immigration laws.
Has Faith in Hoover
"Of course we are in a bad way
in the United States" he acknowl-
edged. But our economic condi-
ton is much better than that of
any other nation. We live in an
atmosphere of fear. There is no
need for this.
Il have an abiding faith in Her.
bert Hoover.
1.-THE Republican party will bring
back good times. 1t is the only
DartV able tn cone with the ecO-
nomic situation.
And if we didn't have the pro-
tective tariff the situation would be
worse"
Watson's appearance at the meet
ing was a surprise affair.
During the meeting, he paid a
tribute to Robinson, declaring he
was acknowledged one of the best
fighters in congress.
Ed Jackson, former Governor, was
present.

OROQUETTES provide one of the
~ most attractive ways of using
I'D leftover meats. Or. very often
cheap cuts can be boiled and used
to excellent advantage in cro-
auettes for company luncheon.
Almost any kind of meat can be
worked up in croquettes. Lamb.
veal. tender roast pork. poultry
and fish are most appetizing used
this way. Combinations of meat
are also satisfactory. Veal and
ham. chicken and ham and veal
and pork are sayory mixtures.
The meat must be carefully
prepared. Every bit of skin. fat
or gristle must be discarded and
only clear meat used in the GRO
quette mixture. The meat Is then
minced and added to the sauce as
il is removed from the fire. This
is important. for care must be
taken not to overlook the meat.
The crumbling and egging is
another important step in cro-
quette making. Every particle OF
the surface of a croQuette must be
covered with crumbs and egg. The
reason for this is that the egg
quickly coagulates in contact with
heat, forming a coating which the
frying fat cannot penetrate. Since
this coating protects the delicate
texture OF the croQuette mixture.
carelessness in crumbing and egg
ing may cause the croquette to
break during the frying. a coat
ing of fine crumbs, one OF slight
ly beaten egg and a final coating
of crumbs give good results.
The shaping OF croquettes is not
a difficult task, but again care
must be observed. The mixture
must be handled very gently. with
the least possible pressure eXerted
in moiding The usual shapes are
the ball. cone. cylinder. chop and
outlet. The last two shapes re-
quire larger amount of croquette
mixture than the others After
thoroughly washing hands. rinse
in cold water but do not dry. Take
a rounded tablespoon of the mix
ture and place on a board and
shape quickly with finger Roll
mixture into a ball first, Then IL

STANDARD RULES
OF ETIQUETTE

Question: How may a dinner be
correctly given by Il hostess whose
equipment is limited?
Answer: The first principle to
be considered in planning the dinner
IS in selecting dishes that do not
require accessories SO that the serv-
ice may thus be simplified and
shortened. In this day and age.
the smart world insists on rapid
service at dinner.
Nothing causes delay more than
dishes which must be followed i'm
mediately by necessary accessories.
For example, fish nearly always
has an accompanying dish on the
form of sauces, condiments, etc
Many meats and game are also
barred for the household with lin
lied equipment since they require
compartments.
One person can wait on eight
people if dishes are chosen which
need no supplements.
