 Something has been said about our insisting on night flying. We did insist on it. The mails must be carried at night. People write letters in the daytime and expect them to be carried within the next 12 hours. Our rules and regula- tions were made for the promotion of those factors needed in prompt and safe delivery of the mails. We had to consider speed, reliability and the elimination of hazards"
 Brown said he had not been asked to appear before the com mittee in Washington, but that he expected, "since the senatorial committee, I asume, wants to be fair and just and arrive at the truth" to be given the opportunity to present his side of the case.
 No Duplicates
 Washington, Jan 11-(UP) - Senate investigators said today a preliminary search through post office department files had failed to locate duplicates of ocean and air mail subsidy correspondence alleged to have been destroyed on orders of former Postmaster Gen. eral Walter F. Brown.
 One investigator expressed the opinion, privately, that both orig inals and copies of the official cor respondence had been tossed into a furnace in the department a few days before last March 4.
 Chairman Black said he would summon all former departmental officials who participated in award of air mail contracts. No date has been set for appearance of Brown, who denied in New York city that he had caused any off, Cial files t0 ho deafroved

2 Further steps to give Waterbury another excellent road connection
 with New Haven will be taken Immediately as the result of the action of the PwA officials in Washington, D. C., yesterday in al- Iotting the state $23,000 more for the project.

it's early yet, and it will take a
whole lot of demonstration to
prove to the selection committee
that any one yacht Is so much
better than any other to justify
her selection.
Organization Helps
Organization, perfectly func-
tioning crew is one of the impor-
tant factors and Harold s. Van
derbilt is known to be q genius
in perfecting organization aboard
a racing yacht as was best shown
in 1880 aboard Enterprise.
That may be of help to New
York in the intercity rivalry, but
even though Rainbow were to be
victorious in every one Of the
early races, that would not JUS
tify her selection by a long shot.
In other years candidates that
have been sluggish in the earlier
trials have suddenly found them
selves and gone on to be selected
and successfully defend the old
mug.

In saying that in FarnSworth
the Garden will have found q
promoter who knows the score, I
do not intend to reflect on the
present or past officials of the

never CHANGED to meet him.
New Low in Gratitude
It also seems to me to strike
a new low in gratitude to dis
penSe with the services Of two
men, who in the face Of unusual
difficulties. have just put across
a sensational bout that brought
the corporation a profit of $780,
600. If that is failure, show me
business man who wouldn't
like to fail.

although this article is concern
ing itself with the boards prob
lens, and I am told on the high
est authority that the new own
ers have not changed their origi.
nal decision to call for a COM
plete new deal.
That has been q recurring
situation in the Garden, ever
since it was built by the late Tex
Rickard, who was himself on the
way out when he forestalled the
gentlemen of Wall Street by
dying in Miami Beach.
It has been the habit of vari-
Gus boards that knew even less
about the sports business than
the men they chose to run a
sports business, to find q way of
getting rid Of any individual
who showed signs Of learning.
The result has been that the
Garden has been forever start
ing all over. Instead Of a bust.
ness, it has been sort Of kinder"
garten for sports promoters.
About the time men such as
Bill Carey and Col John Reed
Kilpatrick-men of the highest
personal caliber and ability in
their own fields-have become
valuable, there has come the
periodic new deal. AS I said
once before, the Garden jobs
have been the graveyards of
hope.
And the only difference there
is in naming Farnsworth for
the post is that he will be start
ing where the others, save
Johnston, left off. There is
really no mystery attached to
the Job.
