Batista charged Saenz had tried to
enlist his support in a projected coup
dieta on June 16 and II, when the
A. B. C. held its huge demonstration
in Havana.
He said Saenz tried to carry off the
coup himself after he had learned
that Mendieta had planned to ask
for Sanez's resignation from the cabi-
net because of his action in connec-
ton with passage Of the gold decree.

Batista said that what was widely
heralded as an A. B. C. fiesta really
was the A. B. C.'s supreme effort to
stage a coup to overthrow Mendieta
and seize power themselves.

j. s. To SURVEY
COST Of MILK
IN DC. AREA
Study Will Aid in Fixing Price
to Be Paid for Surplus
to Be Given Needy

A new check-up on the cost
of producing milk in the Wash
ington area was promised today
by the Department Of Agriculture
in a letter from Acting Secretary
M. L. Wilson to Elwood Seal, AS
sistant Corporation Counsel.
This will assist District authori-
ties in arriving at proper cost
price to offer milk producers for
their surplus.
District officials today consid'
cred asking the Department OF
Agriculture for money from the
processing tax funds to finance
distribution of surplus milk to
needy families.
Surplus Below Estimate
There S a daily surplus of milk
in this area which is now meas
ured at 5000 gallons by the Dis
trict authorities, much less than
the original idea of a surplus
supposed to be in the neighbor-
hood of 10000 gallons.
It was suggested that this sur
plus, which was causing trouble
between the milk producers and
the milk distributors, be taken
over by the relief organization at
a price that would give the
farmer the cost of production.
Fine In Theory
This sounded fine in theory,
but in practice it was pointed out
that vast amount of small book
keeping would have to be set up,
so that an account could be kept
with every family using this milk.
Families entitled to $40 a month,
it was said, would have to get
their monthly checks less the
amount of money spent for milk.
To obviate this, it was sug-
gested also that the milk be sup
piled as a surplus product, like
the beef, pork, etc., now going to
relief families as an extra over
and above their monthly checks.
This has not yet gone beyond the
stage OF discussion.

POORLY RUN ,.
National Aeronautic Associa-
ton Begins Convention
Following Congress

Hiram Bingham, former r.
publican Senator from Connect
cut and now president Of the Ma
tional Aeronautic Association, to-,
day criticized the Administration
for failing to place command OF
armed air forces under aviation e.
perts.
Opening the annual two-day
meeting of the National Aeronau
tic Association, at the Mayflower
Hotel, Mr.. Bingham charged tina
the Administration had failed to
follow the recommendations o.
the Morrow board, subsequently
adopted by Congress, providing
for the creation of assistant secre-
taries for aeronautics in the War
and Navy departments.
Posts Now Empty
Although these places were
created and men appointed to
fill them in previous administra-
tions, there are no sucn posts
now. Recently, the command Of
the Army air forces was placed
under Chief of Staff Douglas
Macarthur. Mr.. Bingham de-
clared:
with all due respects to the
distinguished Secretaries Of
War and Navy and their able
assistant secretaries, none Of
them is a pilot, nor have any
Of them made a specially
either during the war or since
of the needs of military or
naval aerOnautics.
Their principal advisors,
namely the chief Of staff Of
Army and Chief of naval Op-
eratiOns, are not pilots and
are not personally familiar with
and sympathetic to the needs
of the air forces as they are
with the needs of the ground
Army and surface vessels OF
the Navy"
The Federation Aeronautic In
ternationale concluded its SlX-day
congress last night with a banquet
in the Mayflower Hotel at which
Godfrey Cabot, of Boston, was
host.
Reflect Officers
At it's closing session, the
Federation reelected its entire
roster of officers with one ex.
ception, Tadiya Sondermeyer, Of
Jugoslavia, who was elected vice
president. Next years congress
will be held at Belgrade, Jugo-
slavia.
Great interest at the National
Aeronautic Associations meeting
will be centered on the battle for
it's presidency.
Opposing each other as heads
of two powerful factions are
former Senator Bingham and Ber'
narr McFadden, the country'S old
est transport pilot, physical cultur'
ist and publisher.
