MIMIC BATTLE
ABOVE BOSTON

BOSTON, May 25. U.p)-High
over the battle scenes of revolution
ary war days, the modern air ar
mada of the American army sped
today in mimic warfare as the in
vaSion of an imaginary enemy was
thrust aside.
While a crowd estimated at up
ward of 100000 looked on from
points of vantage along five miles
of shore line, 80 pursuit, attack and
bombardment planes, piloted by
picked members of Uncle Sans air
forces, staged the thrilling sham
battle against a background of
cloudy skies, over Old Harbor, Dor
chester bay.
Meanwhile, converging upon BoS-
ton from several points were 594
other planes which were to partici-
pate in the greatest sky parade in
New England history at the close
of the mythical warfare.
During the Boston activities, 38
additional ships secuted the skies of
northeastern Massachusetts,, Maine,
Vermont and New Hampshire.
High army and navy officials,
state and city dignitaries, and
other honor guests we're assembled
to watch this greatest of all air
shows.

Department Heads Assure

PRESIDENT PLEASED
Details OF His Talk With
Edsel Ford Are Not
Made Public.
BY PAUL X. MALLON
United Press Staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, May 25. U.P)-
President Hoover will save about
$75,000,000 in three governmental
departments in the next three years,
II tentative promises of heads OF
those departments come true.
The President returned from the
Rapidan river camp this morning
with the assurance of Postmaster
General Brown that 1t should be
possible to save 100000 in the
postal service-$33000, 1000 in the
year closing June 80, and Sis 000, 900
the following year. He gave the
public indication OF how this would
be done.
On two previous week lends he has
listened to promises of Secretary of
War Hurley and Secretary of the
Interior Wilbur of economies which
IN three years would total 500 2,000,-
600. The public was not informed
regarding Secretary Wilburs meth
cd. Secretary Hurley proposed to
save at best s5.000,0Oo by abandon
ing some 20 TO SO obsolete and poll
tical forts.
Totals in the three departments
were: Post office, $50. .0OO.O00 In
terror, Sl7000.0oo; War, s5 900 O00.
1t has been reported that Post
master General Brown is in favor of
increasing the first class postage
rate to help reduce his deficit. Will
bur is said to believe that about the
only economies possible in his field
would be in the Indian bureau.
Any retrenchment there is sure
TO cause an uproar in Congress,
many of whose members feel the
Indians are not receiving proper
treatment as it is. Hurley's plan to
abandon old forts is expected to
meet with determined opposition
from politicians and patriotic or
ganizations, although in some few
cases he already has received auth
oriZation.
Many Contingencies
Thus it appears there. are many
Ifs" involved in the execution of
Mr.. Hoover's economy campaign, at
least in these three departments.
The Presidents spokesman has
promised an eventual accounting OF
how all the reductions are to be
made
Brown reported postal receipts
this year would show a decline of
$4,000 900, but that postal savings
deposits were increasing. It was
agreed the economy drives should
not include discharge of employees
Oh wage cutting.
Next week either the treasury.
navy or agriculture departments
Will be called on the carpet.
Mr.. Hoover was so pleased with
the result Of his weekend confer
ences with postal officials and Ed
sci Ford that he changed his plans
at the last minute and decided to
remain overnight. With Ford he
discussed the automobile business,
but no statement was given out.

AIR MANEUVERS
ARE DEFENDED
BY SECRETARY

HARTFORD, Conn, May 25. U.P)
While Hartford clergymen were
condemning the war departments
army air maneuvers as a "warlike
gesture and an enemy of peace" F.
Trubee Dawson, assistant secretary
of war for aviation, similarly at
tackled what he termed "insidious
and false propaganda on the man
euvers, which, he said, was spread
by Communists.
Speaking of the dedication of
Rentschler field, East Hartford, he
denied statements the maneuvers
would cost taxpayers an additional
SO 900 900.
Communist organizations said
Dawson, "are at work spreading
insidiouS and false propaganda in
regard to the army air corps
maneuvers. In an effort to discre-
dit a reasonable and conservative
public opinion favoring a moderate
military establishment for defensive
purposes only, by SubverSive meth
ods they are tying to make the
American people believe that the
air corps maneuvers are an addi-
tional burden of some 100000 and
that in the midst of business de-
preston.
THE answer is that it is a con-
temptible lie. These maneuverS
which are a part of the regular
army exercises, are not costing an
additional nickel"

work, Mrs. Foley fled. Some

employee in the lunch room, re-
turned and found the bodies and
the note, which was addressed to
her.

of Mrs. Foley, was notified by po-
lice. In the note the mother said
she also had sent a message to him

PRISON OUTBREAK
HALTS WITHOUT
LOSS OF LIFE

VANDALIA, ILL.,. May 25. U.R-
Four men were shot. dozen 9TH
ers were injured in hand to hand
fighting, and five state buildings
laid in ruins today as result Of the
latest outbreak in the series of riots
that have famed during recent
months in Illinois penal institu-
tions.
With the bayonets of national
guardsmen bristling around the
barbed wire enclosed farm and the
honor" prisoners apparently sub
dued after a short but mad riot
during which they burned their
dormitories, officials felt certain all
danger of trouble was past at the
state farm for misdemeanants about
a mile from here.
Unlike. the riots held in other
prisons in recent months in protest
to treatment, last nights riot here
was said by officials to be directly
the result of the failure of four men
in an attempt to escape.
All the 900 prisoners had known
for weeks, Supt. G. j. MetZger said,
that the break was planned. He
had known of it also and had placed
special guards around the farm.
The four men named in the break
were Charles Rogers, William ST.
monds, Arthur Ragan and Charles
Lewis. They were crawling under
the fence, it was said, when the
guards ordered them to halt. The
men stood up and started to run
but surrendered when peppered
with buckshot. None was hurt SER
