Government Plans
Display Names of
Cities to Aid Pilots

For the benefit of flyers who
frequently cannot determine the
names Of the cities they are pass
ing over, the Government Is fig
uring on the most economical
way Of prominently placing on
the roof Of every public building
the name Of the city or town
and a large arrow pointing north
and south.
Assistant Secretary Of the
Treasury Robert, in charge OF
public building construction, trav-
els frequently by air. He said
yesterday the flying public was
often in the dark as to what city
it was passing over. One pro-
posal, he said, was to work the
name of the city and the arrow
In colored tile in the roof. Final
decision will rest with the ques-
tion of how the thing can be
done most economically.

SANDERS URGES
c. D. P. UNITY

SELINSGROVE, Pa, June 29
GN.SO.-Everett Sanders, ma,
tional Republican chairman, today
called upon party supporters to
unite all factions in an effort to
gain majority control of Congress
in 1884 and demanded that brakes
be applied to bipartisan, unques
tioning acquiescence in the aims
of the Roosevelt Administration.
Speaking before the Young Re
publican rally here, Sanders de-
clared a campaign is under way
to make it appear the first duty
of the minority party is to the
President rather than the nation,
He added:
'Tt has been argued that we
are in an economic war and
that, when we are in a war,
all partisanship is dropped and
everyone follows and ObeyS the
President without hesitation or
question.
"The analogy is fictitious.
The parallel does not exist.
When we are in a war as a ma
tion, we obey the President inn
plicitly and unquestiOningly-
not in his civilian capacity but
in his constitutional capacity
as cOmmander-in-chief of the
Army and Navy"
To refrain from questioning
the wisdom of legislation en-
acted by the Democratic major
ity, Sanders said, would be to
admit that free government has
passed from this nation"

GEOLOGICAL MUSEUM, LON
DON, June 29 GN.S).-Yankee
Doodle Moley, as George M
Cohan might call him, has
arrived and is still here-verJ
still, in fact.
All the diplomatic spiders who
have been waiting for him with
a "come into my parlor" idea
found the professor too fly fol
their plot, and all they caught
of him was the back of his neck
as he entered Claridges Hotel to
report and confer with his chief,
Secretary of State Hull.
All the Dope Is Upset
This upset all the dope and
put the committee on propaganda
to route. They had previously
succeeded in selling the story that
Assistant Secretary of State Moley
was coming from President Roose-
velt directly to the steering COM
nnittee of the conference with a
yalise full of lowdown," and that
he'd ignore the American delega-
tion, pass them up like a defeated
delegation and maybe humiliate
them for not agreeing to scrap
foreign debts and stand for
immediate stabilization Of cur
rencies.
If Mr.. Moley is head Of the
Presidents "brain trust" there is
no doubt he has a head to offer
and it's my guess he's going to
keep it and not carelessly thrust
it into any international block
for decapitation.
Runs Gauntlet of Press
He ran the gauntlet Of the
Dressing press, a hundred expert
cross-examiners, and it looks as if
he hasn't gone off the golden
standard of silence, for all they
got was plain, simple statement
that he was bringing the last
word on American conditions to
the American delegates and that
he would take back to the Presi-
dent the latest reports from his
conference delegation.
And now the foreign statesmen
don't know how to take the man
they thought they'd take-like
Grant took Richmond.
Inspired by reports Of the
American pickup, people over
here are turning to their govern.
ments with a demand for similar
results. In fact. the charge is
made against the present English
government that it used the com
ing of the conference not as a
stimulus for action, but as an ex
cuse for inaction in domestic
affairs.
