Attorney General Dennis G..
Brummitt, who was scheduled to
speak. this morning, was antici-

new constitution.
David Ovens, of Charlotte,
president of the National Retail

merchants to forget the thought
of having codes altered, and to
settle down to an honest effort at
compliance and aid in the restora-
ton of confidence in the future
that the recovery structure might
have advantages or natural forces
in setting right the ills which may
yet trouble business.
Approximately ESQ merchants
were in attendance at the after
noon session yesterday. The AS
ISOLATION opened its sessions in
the morning which was largely
devoted to clearing up routine

The committee was to discuss plans
for a 500-mile- -per-hour wind tunnel
proposed for construction at the COM
mittee laboratories at Langley Field.
Va. The tunnel would be the highest
velocity regular wind-tunnel in the
world, although there is a vertical "air-

as high as 900 miles per hour are
An application for Public Works Ad-
mlnlStration funds for the tunnel has
been approved in principal. but is being
held up for lack Of funds. The pro-
posed tunnel would make possible the
testing of large models of racing planes
capable OF speeds greater than any yet
made
So great would be the wind pressure
in the proposed tunnel that the walls
would have to be constructed of heavy
reinforced concrete and steel to pre-
vent them blowing out when the tun-
mel is in operation. Ordinary tunnels
are constructed Of wood.
