While pointing out he is in favor
Of the idea, Commissioner Hazen said
the greatest problem will be to find
a building which is not too difficult
or costly to reconstruct to fit the
needs of the Women's Bureau.
Earlier the delegation had appeared
before Maj. Ernest w. Brown, su-
perintendent of police, who said he
already had recommended restoration
Of the precinct.
In offering its assistance in the
job, the delegation praised the ad-
ministration Of Maj. Brown, stating
that it thought crime had been held
to a minimum with the facilities now
at Browns disposal.
The next move of the delegation
it was said, will be to present its case

The storm which nearly spelled dis

said Sir Charles, relating that the
downpour was so heavy it clogged the

This made it impossible to tell
whether the plane was maintaining
flying speed, and, while cropping about
in the cockpit to repair the indicator,
Sir Charles accidentally released the
retractable landing gear. The shock
threw the ship into q spin from which
he pulled it only with difficulty.

ton should runaway threaten.
Wartime Idea Borrowed.
The cost-plus purchase idea now
advanced in some N. r. A. quarters
was borrowed from wartime expert
ences. 1t probably would apply only
to products which the Government
could use. But its advocates contend
the range of Federal industrial con-
sumption, especially in such activities
as Federal relief, the Tennessee Valley
Authority and similar agencies, IS
sufficiently broad to offer q real pro-
duction stimulus.
Also, supporters say 1t has the ad-
vantage of aiding existing plants
rather than creating new producing
centers.
Opponents Of the boost production
theory contend the cycle will not work
to the degree necessary to supply the
needed buying power and also that its
employment benefits may be counter
acted by the elimination Of less eff
cient plants.
Another flaw in the program, from
labor's standpoint, is that 1t virtually
outlaws chances of a major slash in
