SOLO PILOT GRADE
ABOLISHED BY j. S.
Change Based on Economy
Removes Excessive Hazard
for FIedgeIings.

The grade of solo pilot. recently
aeronautics branch as intermediate be-
tween the grades of student and private
pilots, was abolished yesterday as a
part of the economy program.
Although no new solo pilot licenses
will be granted, flyers now holding
thsm may continue to operate until
they can qualify for private licenses or
until their solo licenses expire and they
become ineligible for further flying.
1t became necessary to abandon this
type Of license because Federal econo-
mics make 1t impossible for the de-
partment's aeronautical inspectors to
travel from airport to airport to con-
duct examinations of applicants for
licenses. Under the new regime. it is
necessary for pilots to go to airports
where inspectors are stationed to take
their flying examinations.
1t was found that to qualify for the
solo grade. it would be necessary for
fledgling pilots with 10 hours of flying
experience to make croSs-country
flights in order to reach the inspectors
for their tests. This was considered
too great hazard for the average be-
ginner to face.
Under the changes made necessary
by the abolishing of the grade. students
may make solo croSS-country flights
and have other privileges formerly ac-
corded solo pilots except that they may
not carry with them any persons other
than licensed transport, limited COM
mercial or private pilots.
Under the new rules, student pilots
will have to put in a minimum of so
hours of accredited solo flying and pass
the written and flying examinations

Giction Caused by Interest
in RemodeIed House.

With interest in the renowned house
at Fourteenth street and Pennsylvania
avenue increasing daily, officials of the
RenoviZe Washington campaign of the
Washington Board of Trade predicted
today a city-Wide revival of renovizing
activity. The modernized house has at
tracted more than 1000 visitors since
it was opened Monday night, and
brought praise for architects and build
ers who contributed labor and materials
for its construction.
The ramshackle hut, abandoned and
deserted by its former owners, was
moved from the grounds of Columbia
Hospital to the Government parking
in front of the Commerce Department
last Spring. Since that time it has
undergone complete renovation, the
architects and builders utilizing much
of what was left of the original struc-
ture
AS at present constructed, the dwell
ing contains living room, with brick
fireplace; double bed room and single
bed room. with bath adjoining; step
down dining room, kitchen and laun-
ory. Provision is made for a future
staircase to the basement, which, of
course, is not provided at present
The furniture in the house is made
up of both old and new pieces, the prin-
clple of ''renovizing" being demon
strated in the former much of which
was reclaimed from the scrap-heap and
recondltioned. CutaWay portions of the
walls, flooring and exterior reveal the
process followed in rebuilding
The house will be open daily through
out the rest of this month Statistics
are now being compiled on the cost of
the undertaking. and are expected to be
made public shortly.

'tWar" Declared On
 Brown Pacifists
Committee Appointed to Investigate Communistc
 Activities of University Undergraduates

liam A. Needham, Providence law yer, Brown graduate (1916), and World war veteran, asked U. S. Attorney Henry M. Boss. Jr, an- other Brown alumnus, to investi- gate 1t.
 Shortly thereafter the Rhode Is- land house of representatives by unanimous vote adopted a resolu- ton calling for the appointment of a committee of six members to conduct an inquiry. The commit tee will investigate the activities of undergraduates at Brown Uni- versity in pledging their fellow students not to bear arms except in case of invasion of the main land of the United States, and all activities connected with the so- called Pacifist movement in any institution in this state aided by public funds"
 Needham said he would ask Boss to obtain indictments against Brown students who had signed the anti-war pledge; that if Boss declined to act he would seek from the foreman of the federal grand jury permission to appear before that body; and that as 8 last re- sort he would carry the case to the department of justice at Washing ton.
 Maxwell G. Hoberman of Toms River, N. J., editor-in-chief of the Brown Daily Herald, said Need- hams charges were "false and un- founded"
 The university has disclaimed any sponsorship of the campaign
 'T personally am not in sympa- thy with it." President Clarence A. Barbour of Brown said today. "I would not sign such a pledge be- cause it is impossible for any man to tell what his action will be 15 or 20 years hence. The Brown ad- ministration has no connection at all with this movement"
 Asked if the administration would attempt to censor the Her. aid, he replied negatively, pointing out that it was a student publica- tion with no connection with the administration.
 Regarding the inquiry ordered by the legislature, he said: we are ready to cooperate in every way with the legislative commit tee."
