MITCHELL URGES
ONE DEFENSE UNIT.
Former Air Corps Chief Says
Merged Department Would
Aid Efficiency.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
A remodeled national defense system
to increase efficiency and save $780,
100000 to $3OO,O0O,OOO a year" was
recommended to the House MiAtcry At
fairs Committee today by Col. William
Mitchell, former Army Air Corps chief.
Mitchell proposed that the land sea
and air forces of the United States be
merged into Department of National
Defense, with only one head. Assist
ants would be charged with supervising
activities of the Army, Navy and
aviation.
A bill to accomplish that has lust
been introduced by Chairman McSWa;n
OF the Military Affairs Committee. and
1T was that proposal, among others,
which the committee was considering
today.
Mitchell testified that because of the
developments in the World War 1--WE are
going to have to develop an entirely new
,, policy" Defense. he said, should CEN
ter around submarines and airplanes
and zeppelins.
Submarines Discussed.
I'm the World War" Mitchell said.
submarines reduced Great Britain to
starvation. They almost won the war
by themselves. Much of the data Show
! ing that. has been kept secret and still
are. Germany never had an average of
more than 80 submarines on the sea at
any one time. They could not travel
far. Now. submarines can be so con-
| Structed that they can go any place in
the world and back again without re-
fueling"
To emphasize his arguments for addi-
tlonal aerial strength. Mitchell pointed
to the recent record breaking nonstop
flight from England to Cape Town.
II that plane had a Diesel engine
1t could have gone IS to 80 per cent
farther" Mitchell testified. I'VE can
build plane now with Diesel engine
that will fly 5000 miles and carry 900
pounds of bombs, and Zeppelins can be
built to go from any one place in the
world to any other and back again"
Aviation. Mitchell asserted, was ''one
of the factors that ended the World
War"
Pacific Coast Problem.
"They uhe central powers knew we
were assembling a huge air force to
bomb the vital centers in Germany
early in 1919 That would have ended
the war anyhow"
Americas principal defense problem
Mitchell said, now centers on the Pa
cific Coast.
There is very virile strong outfit
there seeking mastery Of the world" he
testified Il have been around them
in Siberia and Manchuria and Japan
and know. Tney are out on 'Gengis
Khan expedition if there ever was one.
OF course We are going to have a con-
flict with them sooner or later, whether
We want to or not.
Under the circumstance We are max
ing a tremendous mistake inSnot de-
veloping our air power. Nobody is 60
ing to build battleships-they aren't
| silly enough"
McSwain interposed:
There is some talk about battleships
at the State Department"
That's just talk, just a racket,
! Mitchell replied.

SECOND JUDD TRIAL

claring he considered another trial only
waste of time and money, Superior
Judge Howard Speakman has dismissed
the information charging Winnie Ruth
Judd with the murder of Miss Hedvig
Samuelson, one of two women allegedly
slain by the 28-year-old blonde.
Attorneys for Mrs. Judd yesterday

Staying Of Miss Samuelson in an apart
ment in an apparent attempt to allow
their client to tell her story Of self-de
fense in the killing of Miss Samuelson
and Mrs. Agnes Anne Leroi.
Mrs. Judd was convicted of the MUIR
der of Mrs. Leroi, entering a plea of
insanity. After her conviction she
claimed she killed both women in self
defense The trunk murderess" never

TUESDAY CLUB CONCERT.

THE Tuesday Evening Music Club, un-
der the direction of Florence How
ard, gave program Of songs last
evening for the American Association Of
University Women. The delightful
singing of the club was welcomed with
ested audience.
The freshness of quality Of the voices
and the uniformity of color make the
singing of this group of young women
unusually pleasing. Never overstepping
the bonds Of their natural power, they
sing easily with flexible control of
dynamic effects and put an aliveness
into their interpretations that is truly
convincing. The program was ad-
mirably selected, moving from mood to
mood and covering variety of subjects
arranged for chcral singing by the most
outstanding composers.
Two songs by Deems Taylor, "The
Romaika" and Twenty Eighteen" were
sung with simple tone we'll in keeping
with their light, gay character The
Welsh folk song, "All Through the
Night" and the Russian folk song.
Dark Eyes" showed the clear, full
quality CT the singers voices, which,
"AlhC dSAlCEulS VI lS
never heavy. The Dawn" by Max
Bruch, and Done Paid My Vow to the
Lord" by Nathaniel Dett, had solo obbli-
gatos sung by Beatrice Orbison and
Helen Neumeyer Perry to the accom-
paniment of the ether singers.
Several solo numbers were inter-
spersed between the choral groups
Alice Sherrer gave the "Gavotte" from
Thomas ''Mignon" effectively Ina
Holtzscheiter sang the "Un Bel di
Vedremo" aria from Nine. Butterfly"
and her voice was excellently suited to
the high range of the aria, while "Elsa's
Dream" from "Lohengrin," was an ex-
pressive medium for the sweet voice of
Miss Orbison. Unfortunately, the for
eign text Of both arias was somewhat
marred by incorrect pronunciation,
which, especially in the German aria,
distorted the beautiful words of the
poem. Helen Neumeyer Perry replaced
Frances Tucker on the program and her
rich contralto was heard with contrast
ing effect in Strauss "Zueignung" and
April in Killarney"
Mrs. Howard deserves much credit for
what she has accomplished with this
ensemble group, in which she Is most
ably assisted by Marjorie Davis, accom-
panist, and the vote of thanks which
was offered her at the end of the pro-
gram was an expression Of the audiences
pleasure in an evening Of delightful
entertainment. A. E.

NEW YORK, March 30-President
Roosevelt was described by a member
of his academic cabinet" yesterday as

Prof Adolph A. Berle, jr., Of Colum-

Woman Association club house, said:
What President Roosevelt did was
something quite different He called in
men who are supposed to have special
knowledge about particular subjects and
asked them for plain statements of
facts. Then he made up his mind-he
being, after all, the man who more than
any other man in this country, think,
can find the greatest common divisor
for the greatest number Of people"
