Critics of the plan have pointed out
that conditions in France differ from
those In England. Germany and the

out that although these three countries
have single subsidized companies, these

India Protects Airports.
Construction or maintenance of
buildings, planting Of trees or the erec-
tion Of other obstacles or digging or
the grazing Of cattle in the immediate
vicinity Of an airport Is prohibited by
royal decree in Netherland India, ac-
cording to an official report to the
United States Department Of Commerce
from Batavia.
Airport zoning laws imposed by the
decree are very strict. They are in line
with ordinances which have been pro-
posed in number of nations and which
have been advocated for the United
States and are intended to control the
establishment of obstacles which may
constitute hazard to aircraft using the
airports.
Under the terms Of the decree no air
port may be established without permit
from the Governor General. All air
ports established legally, however, will
be as fully protected as possible The
decree forbids all persons to build or
own buildings on or In the vicinity of
an airport, to plant or own plants or
trees on or in the vicinity of an airport,
to have cattle Craze there or to do any
digging in that locality.
Should these prohibitions work imam
cial hardship on the owners Of property
in the vicinity Of an airport, it is pro-
vided that compensation for such dam
age may be awarded by the govern
ment. Additional regulations necessary
for the execution of the decree may be
effected from time to time. Violators Of
the airport zoning laws are subject to
Imprisonment for three months or Q
fine of not to exceed 5000.

1--WE are engaged in another
war, and 1 believe from the
bottom of my heart that or
ganized labor is doing its share
to win this war. The whole Of
the country has a cOmman
enemy; industry, agriculture,
capital, labor are all engaged
in fighting it. Just as in 1917
we are seeking to pull in har-
ness; just as In 1917, horses
that kick over the traces will
have to be put in a corral.
CONDITIONS SIMILAR
"Mr, Gompers understood and
went along with that thought
during the years Of the war,
and we have many evidences of
his acceptance of the fact
that the horses pulling in
harness were the horses Of the
employees and of the employ
erS as well. In those years a
few-happiIy a very few-hOrses
had to be lassOed-bOth kinds
of horses; and today the. con-
ditiOns are very similar.
In the field of organized
labor there are problems just as
there were in the spring Of 1917
questions of jurisdiction
which have to be settled quickly
and effectively in order to pre-
vent the slowing up Of the gen.
eraI program. There are the per-
fectIy natural problems of self
ish individuals who seek per-
sOnal gain by running counter
to the calm judgment of sound
leadership.

think that results can be OBJ
tanned by noise or violence;
there are inSidiOus voices seek
ing to instill methods or princi-
pies which are wholly foreign to

cratic government.

Completion of the task of max

the 500 men who obtained appli-
cations for labor jobs at the
Navy Yard here is expected to be
completed today.
DR.. H. L. Shinn, lieutenant
commander in the Navy Medical

had examined more than 800 Of
the applicants and that the re-
mainder no doubt would come

OF the number examined Up
to the close of yesterday, DR..
Shinn said, only about 20 or
Is per cent were found to be
physically unfit for the work. He
said:
"TheSe men do not have to
come under Civil Service. Their
jobs will be only Of q labOring
nature and they merely must
be physically able to perform
the jobs"
DR.. Shinn explained that of
the approximate 5000 who lined
up at the Navy Yard gates the
day the applications were given
out, only 500 were given appli-
cation blanks.

'34STUDE BAKER
ARRIVES HERE

The new Studebaker motor
cars arrived today and will be
displayed Immediately. The new
models, sensationally low priced
and featuring new Skyway styling
and speedway stamina, will to-
night be shown for the first time
by Lee D. Butler. Inc. Butler
said:
"Studebaker has produced
new models that exceed any
previous Studebaker automO-
biles and their prices are $500
less than we have ever been
able to offer StudebakerS be-
fore"
Skyway styling design has
many advantages. Bodies ap-
proach the shape Of welded steel
spheres and are therefore
stronger. Top speeds are higher
and are achieved and sustained
with less power play energy and
streamlining results in less wind
roar by permitting air currents
to flow past quietly and smoothly.
Interiors are roomier than pre-
vious models. Seats are wider and
deeper, headroom has been in
creased, yet the bodies are lower.
Distinctly unusual is a new and
efficient system of ventilation and
air conditioning of interiors. An
other feature of the new cars
is the six-position head lamps,
which add greatly to driving
safety.
Perhaps the outstanding fea-
ture of the new Studebaker chassis
Is the box-frame construction. The
frame of a motor car is its very
foundation. Heretofore, straight
bar frames, U frames, H frames
and L frames have been used.

From then ON, we had many

time when tell you that in
the year 1911-OnIy twenty-five
years agO-SamueI GOmperS,
Robert F. Wagner, Alfred E.
Smith, and 1 were labeled as

GAIN AS TIME PASSES
'TheSe early struggles for
social betterment - struggles
which in large part were initi-
ated by him-have met with
growing success with every pass
ing year. I like to think that
Samuel GOmpers is today aware
of the fact that through the
quick and practical action of
the National Recovery Act,
child labor in the United States
has at last come to an end.
During the years of the Will

"YOu Of the Federation Of La
Dor and its affiliations are in

kind Of fine cooperation to your

GOmperS and his associates gave

The educational forum of Local

Employees in the near future, ac-

The forum, established for the
purpose Of keeping members Of
No. 2 informed as to matters af-
fecting the condition of Govern
ment workers, has been directed
by Ulrey j. Biller, eventh vice
president of the National Fedora
ton of Federal Employees, and has
been remarkably successful in
disseminating information re-
garding living costs, retirement
systems, and other live topics af-
fecting Government workers.
It is felt that it's usefulness
should not be confined to one
local, but that it should serve all
Government workers in the Dis
trict of Columbia.
A considerable amount Of re-
search work along a number Of
lines has been carried forward
under the direction of the forum,
and one subject Of immediate in
terest now being discussed and
investigated is the conciliation
machinery established in the Civil
Service Commission as model
for other Federal departments
and agencies. In this connection
a careful study has been made
of the Whitley system in England,
from which the conciliation pro-
gram was derived.
