BLEEDING BOY
 STILL LIVING


 North Adams, Mass, Feb 19.-- (UP)-His strength sapped by a three-week nosebleed, Chester Luczynski, nine-year old Vermont schoolboy, remained in a serious condition at North Adams hospi- tai to-day.
 Nurses said his condition. was little changed from Saturday, when slight improvement was noted following a blood transfusion op- eratioIi.
 It was believed another trans- fusion might be resorted to short ly in the almost hopeless battle to save his life. Chester's affliction has been diagnoZed as purpura hemOrrha- gicia, a' disease ascribed to a de- ficiency in the internal secretions | of the body.

An army biplane, once trim and speedy, lay mass of wreckage on a farm near here today following the first air mishap in Ohio as the army prepared to take over operation of the air mail service.
 Lost in a binding snowstorm while, enroute to a new assignment at Columbus, the pilot, Lieut.. J. H. Gibson, was forced to "bail out" when his gasoline supply ran low. He landed safely a mile and a half from the spot where his plane crashed.

would go to certain companies. and they did.
 On the foregoing are based the charges of fraud and collision. on which all contracts were can celled. And the case of the air mail operators wasn't helped any by revelations of gigantic salaries and bonuses paid to officers of companies receiving subsidies, and of vast riches run up in the stock market on shares of sub- sidy- ollecting companies.
 With that background. here are the two sides to the question of whether Roosevelt did right or wrong, first the arguments for complete cancellations:
 There was a "spoils confer ence," at which the operators tried to divide the airmail map to suit themselves, and there was an understanding" among operators that only certain ones would bid on those two transcontinentals.

Ruled by Huge Companies

But gradually the whole airmail system shook itself down into the hands of three hugs companies, and a half dozen or so smaller ones.
 When the, cancellation order was issued, the picture was something like this:
 American Airways II routes controlled by E. L.. Cord Lehman Brothers and Chase National Bank money in it.
 United Airlines six lines . controlled by Frederick B. Rentschler National City Bank identified with it. General Aviation three routes, all very long con- troled by General Motors.
 Six so-called Independent lines, nearly all of which have stock held by the Big Three" Ninety five per cent of all the airmail mileage Is flown by the Big Three"

AFTER GOVERNOR AGAIN

Northampton. Mass, Feb 19-(U. P.)-Governor Ely will be asked to commute to life imprisonment the death sentence of Edward T. stan isiewski, 21, of Amherst, former Providence College football and basketball player, who was con. victed of the murder of Timothy Diggins of Amherst. The execution has been set for the weeks of April 8.
 The doomed youth has sighed a formal petition to the governor.

RIGHT OR WRONG?

Was President Roosevelt right or wrong in his sweeping cancellation of every airmail contract in the United States? Was he unfair not to give the victims a hearing first; not to let them try to prove that they were innocent?
 Has he dealt 8 mortal blow to Anferica's world- leading air transport system, or has he cleansed it so that a new and better system will be the outcome?
 Was it necessary to. order the grounding. of the en- tire air transport industry, including some 5000 inno- cent employees, just to get the merchants" and the scoundrels out of aviation? .1any factors enter into the battle that is raging and the contentious of both sides are given in this story.

Spells Are Split

It was under this law that it is charged Brown and the airmail op- orators carried on their abuses. By this time, you see, big money had come into the industry, and lines already were being drawn under the control of two or three big companies.
 And here is what happened:
 IS POLLS CONFERENCE"- Brown called the operators in, and they sat down to divide up the new routes among themselves But they didn't agree on what they wanted, so Brown took charge and built his own airmail map"
 EXTENSIONS - Congressmer say that it was their intention that extensions literally should be extensions, that is, small addi- tions to routes already existing
 But Brown gave out huge ex- tensions, some far longer than the original line. some jutting off at angles, sometimes a second ex- tension on the end of a first ex- tension.

SURPLUS RENEWAL
Old Dealers Would Pile Up
Farm Products Again,
He Says.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RUSTON, La, July s0.-Hitting
back at Republicans who attack the
A. A. A. program, Secretary Wallace
said today that the battle cry of the
old dealers is ''pile up the surpluses
again.
The Agriculture Secretary said in a
speech that the Republican party "has
always been short on craftsmanship"
and has "even seduced hard-headed
farmers" into believing that since ''the
drought has disposed of the surpluses
the agricultural adjustment
effort should be abandoned"
SurpIuses and Tariff.
THE old dealers, because they never
had any real sympathy with the farm
ers, anyway, would doubtless Ike to
see the farmers in the United States
harvesting their full $4,000, 900 acres
OF wheat, los 100000 acres OF corn.
Al 900 900 acres of cotton and maintain
the crop-land acreage in the United
States at the $40, 900, ,0o0-acre total of
recent years." he said.
The battle cry of the old dealers,
therefore, seems to be pile up the sur
pluses again, but hold the tariff at q
point which will make 1t impossible
to dispose of the surplus on the world
market
