Wet, was ordered to stand trial to-

son, aboard the gambling ship
Johanna Smith last week.
A federal grand jury returned an
indictment charging him with muir
der on the high seas. Penalty upon
conviction is death on the galloWs

More than a score of witnesses,
including ships officers and en-
ployees, paraded before the grand

confession that the defendant shot
his friend down during an argu-
ment over the proprieties of shoot
ing innocent victims. Walsh is be-

Extinction of Important Industry
Averted by Cobb's Vigorous Action

, Gus situation as his own. 1t
was an extremely difficult prob
lem, for they were scattered all
over the country, and they had
never had any sort of an organ
ization. Only a few of them
were even acquainted with one
another. He had to do in a few
days an organizing job of a
sort that usually requires
months.
He got to work. He wrote let
ters, and sent kilograms, and
talked over the long distance
telephone. He retained General
Albert l.. Cox as his lawyer.
Four operators, accompanied by
General Cox, appeared before
the deputy administrator and
managed to obtain a stay of the
proceedings.
In the course of his efforts to
build UP an organization in
rapid-fre fashion, Mr.. Cobb be-
thought him of the men who
sold the portable equipment.
And their affirmative response
to his appeal for cooperation
was nothing less than explosive
for they became aware, all OF
a sudden, that they were threat
ened with having their market
taken away from them. In the
last six years these machinery
men have sold about $50, 100000
worth of crushers and other
portable equipment to contrac-
tors. No wonder they were in
terested!
For the next meeting Mr..
Cobb had fourteen men, from
fourteen states, in Washington.
Most of them came by airplane.
One, in the Mississippi Valley,
boarded a plane after he was
called by telephone in the morn
ing and was in Washington by
half past eight that evening.

A Biography by Russell

A biography of William the
Conqueror by Phillips Russell
of the University faculty is to
be published by Scribner's this
fall. Mr.. Russell began his
study of the Conqueror several
years ago in England and has
continued it, with Interruptions,
since returning to this country.
Some of the books about William
the Conqueror have been in the
category of "fictionalized" bio
graphy. Mr.. Russell's is to be
narrative based upon the avail
able authentic records; it will
include, too, a discussion of the
influence Of the Normans upon
the laws and language Of Eng
land.

last week, with 80 states repre-.
sented. Collier Cobb, Jr., was
elected vice president for the
Southern states.
He is going to Washington
today to serve on the associ.
atoms committee which is to ap.
pear before the deputy admins
traitor and submit a code design.
ed to give the portable oper-
ators adequate protection.
The Chapel Hill weekly., 1933-10-06

Largely because of vigorous
action by Collier Cobb, Jr., the
people throughout the United
States who operate portable
equipment fer crushing rock and
preparing sand and gravel are
in a fair way to have their in
dustry properly protected by a
Government code. Until they
were stimulated by the Chapel
Hill man to make a protest to
the National Recovery Admins
tration in Washington they ran
the risk of losing their business
to the powerful concerns that
sell crushed stone, sand, and
gravel from stationary plants.
For years Mr.. Cobb, road
and bridge contractor, has NOV
ed his crusher from place to
place in North Carolina, mostly
in the piedmont section. He has
bought stone from farmers and
other persons in easy reach Of
the crusher.
A month or so ago he learned
that the owners of stationary
plants had appeared at Washing
ton and submitted to the Gov
ernment a code containing pro-
visions which would practically
drive him out of business. These
provisions were SO drafted as
to give the stationary plants an
advantage almost equivalent to
a monopoly. The deputy ad-
ministrator assigned by Gener-
al Hugh S. Johnson to conduct a
hearing upon the code, and to
recommend a decision upon it,
had little or no knowledge of the
extent of the work done all over
the United States by the oper-
ators of portable equipment.
Mr.. Cobb realized that it was
next TO impossible for him, as
an individual, to make an eff
fective protest. He was faced
with the problem Of getting into
communication with the men
who were in the same danger

seadromes to be anchored on the
| Atlantic route is $4,000, ,000-
| about half the cost of a new
| transatlantic steamship of the
Bremen type"
"The seadromes will be built
along the southerly route across
the ocean: southeast from New
York. thence to the Azores,
thence northeast to Vigo, Spain.
A plane will have to fly only 500
miles on each lap. Europe will
be reached in 80 hours in COM
fort and safety. You will be able
to breakfast in Norfolk and dine
tomorrow night in Madrid,
Paris, London, Berlin, or Rome.
"The seadromes will be favor
ed by the warming influences
of the Gulf Stream and by the
semi-tropical latitude of Bermu-
da and the Azores.
''It is estimated that the one
way for the air trip over the
ocean will be, in the beginning,
somewhere around 5000.
"The international status of
these new islands will be inter-
esting. The seadromes will not
be taxable, nor will they be sub
ject to registration. They will
be islands, anchored to the bot
tom of the ocean, and therefore,
not subject to the sumptuary
laws or taxes, of America or
any other country. The sea-
drome owners will own the ocean
bottom underlying the seadrome
and, according to international
law, may claim the right to pro-
lection for limit of twelve miles
around each seadrome station
site. Neither is it necessary to
have new international agree
ments to put in operation ocean
airway services. In the absence
of special international agree
ments permitting airway opera
ton between specific countries,
terminal airway services, con-
Meeting these countries with the
seadrome system, can be operat-
ed by the nationally registered
planes of the particular country
concerned. Now, for the first
time in history, human inven-
tion makes effective and perman-
ent occupation of the high seas
possible. Just what consequences
this will have on the principle
Of the freedom Of the seas re-

NOrfOlk's Advantages
AS Airplane Terminus

AS Airplane Terminus
The advantages of Norfolk as
a terminus for airplanes making
regular trips between America
and Europe were described re-
Gently by Captain Hugh Duncan
Grant, former chief meterolo-
gist for the British Navy, in a
talk delivered in Norfolk and
broadcast over the radio.
Captain Grant came to Chapel
Hill last year and told about sea-
dromes-the floating islands
which are to be placed in the
Atlantic ocean, at 500-mile inter-
walls, between here and Europe.
They will serve as stations for
ocean-going planes and at the
same time will be miniature
towns, with hotels, gymnasiums,
recreation centers, and shops.
Norfolk will serve as a feed
er center to Seadrome No. l, 470
miles out to sea-" said Captain
Grant. There are many impOr-
tant reasons favoring Norfolk as
an aerial terminus. This sec
ton of the seaboard lends itself
naturally and most admirably,
from weather standpoint, to
the development of commercial
flying Meteorological it has
the advantage of a low average
volume of fog and the absence
of strong winds.
Regular airplane service be-
tween America and Europe is
not merely in sight, but within
two years Of actual accomplish
ment, and you in Norfolk, the
state of. Virginia, and the Caro-
linas will become economic part
fers in the worlds newest and
longest oceanic air route be-
tween the Old World and the
New. The fall of 1885 will find
transatlantic air mail and pas
senger service under way over
the Seadrome Ocean Airways.
"The seadrome will be a steel
and iron 9pen-work structure
with a 6-aefe deck, 80 feet above
the water line, with buoyancy
tanks 40 feet below the water.
Ballast chambers, filled with
iron ore, will extend 160 feet
below the surface to give stabi-
lity. An reinforced concrete
anchor, weighing 1900 tons.
resting on the bed of the ocean,
will keep the drome in place, al
ways lying down the wind in a
position for aircraft to land.
"The landing deck will be L.
200 feet long. There will be a
permanent personnel of 1876
resident employees and acc0mo-
dations for a floating population
of from 800 to 500.
"The landing platform, rising
80 feet abov ethe water, will look
as if it were on a forest of stills.
Resembling a mobile marine air.
dock, the drome will be moored
to a huge buoy attached to the
!, ,5OO-ton anchor by two 4-inch
galvanized steel cables The
advantage of this mooring will
be that the drome will traiLinto
the wind to facilitate landing.
"The five seadromes will be
| in constant communication with
each other and both sides of the
Atlantic by radio, while pilots
will be guided by radio beacons
from stage to stage.
