The policy has been, however,
to curtail family employment,
and even members of Congress
who we're found to have their
families on the rolls suffered
when the facts were revealed.
Regardless of the injuSticeS OF
the tWO lG1DS, there are teO en-
ployeS Who WiH not admit that
it is better to haze one member
OF tUo families on the pay roll
than to haze t1Uo members of
one family draw salaries. That
is, they Wiu admit it unless the
rule strikes home.
In recent months, however,
there have been reports that
some workers are not only en-
ployed in contravention of Sec
ton 213, but in violation of the
civil service law as we'll.
For example, in one case a
man draws $4,000 salary, his
daughter employed as his Secre-
tary draws $4,000, and a son re-
ceives $1,000. A second case is
of a man now drawing $4,4OO
and seeking $4,000, although
his wife draws S2,4OO and a
daughter is paid $1,000.
Hardships worked by Section
213 in some cases may be loudly
deplored, but, in the above two
cases and many more, there are
outright violations of all rules of
proper administration.
As long as such ViolGtionS con.

U.S.AviatiOn Relies on Exports
By James T. Williams, Jr.

Italics were employed by the
Baker committee in its recent
report on military aviation to
emphasize the unanimous con-
clusion of these distinguished
experts that IAN adequate air
craft industry is essential to
national defense"
Although the development of
commercial aviation in the
United States has been more
rapid than in any other coun-
try, the Baker committee found
that "the number of civil and
commercial airplanes produced
is not sufficien to maintain a
satisfactory nucleus of an air
craft industry"
On this account the commit
tee urged the establishment,
with the Presidents approval,
of an annual program of pro-
curement for the Army and
the Navy in order that the avn
alton industry of this country
may be maintained on a basis
adequate to meet the needs of
our national defense.
The Baker committee is the
fifteenth Federal agency to in
vestigate aviation since the
Great War ended. And now
the Aviation Commission, the
appointment of which was au-
thorized by the last Congress,
is just beginning the sixteenth
investigation of American avia-
ton. While the members of
this commission are making a
survey of civil aviation through.
out the United States and as
far south as the Panama
Canal, the chariman-Clark
Howell, of Georgia-has gone
to Europe to see at first hand
the development of aviation
across the Atlantic.
Chairman Howell will find
that in recent years American
experts of aeronautical products
have increased so rapidly that
today the United States leads
the world in the export field.
In fact, this export business is
a large part Of the total out
put of the industry in the
United States. Because many
nations are today building up
their air forces, the establish
ment in foreign countries of
our aeronautical products is of
first Importance.
1t is important to our ma
tional defense because it en-
ables the training of a large
number of Americans in the
manufacture of aircraft. This
force can be relied upon to
produce large quantities of air
craft in the event of a national
emergency.
The maintenance of American
leadership in aeronautical ex-
ports is also important from the
standpoint of national pros
perity. 1t enables this country
to provide employment for a
large number of men engaged
in the industry.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1934-08-14

Recent estimates reveal that
rs per cent of the cost of pro-
ducing an aircraft engine is for
labor. This includes the labor
employed in turning out the
materials and accessories fur
nished for the production of an
engine.
1t is also estimated that in
the manufacture of airplaneS
that Sc per cent of the total cost
of an airplane is for labor, in
Guiding the labor employed in
the manufacture of accessories
and materials required for the
production of the airplane.
And the record for 1888 shows
that the export business alone
of the aviation industry of this
country provided for American
wage-earners 100000 man
hours of labor.
In spite of the depression, a
number of our aviation COM
panleS were enabled by this eX-
port business to continue opera
tionS. But for their exports to
foreign countries of aeronautical
products, these American fac
tories would have been COM
PEELED to close their doors nearly
a year ago. This would not only
have added thousands of skilled
workmen to the rolls of the un-
employed, but it would have also
draStically curtailed the sources
of supply for military and COM
mercial aircraft essential to ma
tional defense in case of an
emergency.
Under existing law all aircraft
and aircraft engines of a mill
tary nature must first be re-
leased by either the Army or the
Navy before an American manu-.
facturer is permitted to ship
these products to foreign coun-
try. This is a wise policy be-
cause it protects the United
States by retaining for its own
national defense the latest
plane and engine designs.
Nor is this the only gain for
our national defense derived
from such a policy. BY permit
ting American aviation compan-
les to develop their export bust.
ness, our Government thereby
reduces the cost of airplanes and
engines required for it's own
armed forces, because a proper
ton of the fixed charges and
overhead costs involved in the
production of American aircraft
is charged up to foreign pur-
chaserS.
This is no time for Congress
to restrict the export of Ameri-
can aeronautica1 products. Such
restrictions would only send
business to foreign competitors
of American aviation companies,
add to our own unemployment,
curtail our sources of military
and commercial aircraft essen
tial to our national defense and
increase the cost Of their pro-
curement. e.
If the Aviation Commission
does well it's work, it will reiter-
ate the warning of the IS inves-
tigating bodies which have pre-
coded it that a prospecting Amer
lean aviation industry is alb
solutely essential to American
defense on land and sea and in
the air.

Strange arcanum of age-old
tradition, of old and residual
human values, is the Isle of
Man, where Kaye Don, the
motorboat speed king, is SEN
fenced to four months in prison
found guilty of manslaughter
in the accidental death of his
mechanic.
The centuries overlap here,
and there is irony in a speed
demon trapped in the musty
old Deemster'S court.
Manxmen have travelled
slower and Jared better than
some who have filched the
lightning to speed their coming
and going. The little Isle of
Man in the Irish Sea is the
only solvent country in Europe;
it is the only country which
annually budgets surplus;
the only country with no ma
tional debt. It has no crime.
It's last murderer was hanged
30 years ago.
Read the ancient oath, taken
by the judge who sentenced
Kaye Don:

contents thereof, and by the
wonderful work that God hath

dent lieutenant governor, who,
however, lays only a light
scepter on the stiff necked
islanders. They have their own
little flag-a triune boot, with
the thee legs kicking, tradi-
tionally, at England, Scotland
and Ireland. In the middle ages,
it was ruled first by a Welsh
and then by a Scandinavian
dynasty. In the 18th century, it
became the feudal principality
of the Stanley dynasty, later
purchased by England.
1t has some copper, lead and
zinc, fisheries and arabic land,
but happily no gold or iron ore
to drag it into the vast COM
pick of warning European trade
interests. 1t goes it's ancient way
peacefully because it has no
trouble-making surplus of any,
thing. Here is the "autarchy,"
which the big nations out be-
yond the Irish sea dream about,
but cannot achieve. Like Hor-
ace, they would turn to their
Sabine farm, but cannot.
But the ManXmen can and
do. No debt; no crime. Even
their tailless cats are paced to
the tempo of their neat little
controlled economy. When there
are too many of them and
prices are threatened, they
breed less - and more when
scarcity looms. Budgeting cats
is serious business there, for

Aiding Bank Victims


The announcement that Representative Clarence J.
Mcleod of Michigan intends to carry on his fight on
behalf of dpostors of closed banks when Congress recon
venes in January continuance of the vigorous
and highly successful campaign which he waged in the
last session.
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ENACTMENT OF THE
MCLEOD STEAGALL BILL WHICH AUTHORIZES
THE RECONSTRUCTION FINANCE CORPORATION
TO LOAN UPON OR PURCHASE ASSETS OF THE
CLOSED BANKS AT LIBERAL VALUATIONS, REP
REsENTATIvE MCLEOD is PREPARING LEGIsLA-
TON WHICH WILL ELIMINATE THE COSTLY
RECE1vERsHIPs WHICH NOW ARE EATING UP
WHAT MONEY THE DEPosIToRs STILL HAVE
LEFT IN THE BANKS
The enactment of such legislation is essential if the
receivership system is not to mpoverish permanently
those thrifty citizens whose funds the Government ured
into weak banks by the issuance of false statements and
by appeals to patriotism,
Estimates compiled by The Washington Times show
that the cost of the recevershps in both State and
national banks exceeds two hundred million dollars
nually.
That vast is being deducted from the dividends
which the deposors receiving or hope to receive
But that money is only part of the sacrifice which
these citizens being called upon to make because OF
their display of their faith in the integrity of the Govern
ment and in the honesty of that Governments supervi
sion of the closed banks.
ALTHOUGH PART OF THEIR DEPOSIT MONEY
STILL EXISTS IN THE FORM OF THE ASSETS OF
THE CLOSED BANKS THE DEPOsIToRs CANNOT
OBTAIN IT NOW WHEN THEY NEED 1T MOST AND
WHEN IT WOULD DO THE COUNTRY THE MOST
GOOD TO HAVE 1T RESTORED TO CIRCULATION.
The delay which the receivers encounterng in qul
dating the affairs of the closed institutions is only the
natural result of the system and of existing economic
conditions
While it is not true of all the receivers it is true of
many that they do not wish to wind up the affairs OF
their banks too quickly because to do so would be to
deprive themselves of lucrative jobs
Another cause of the delay the difficulty in moving
MANY of the assets the present market without doing
further damage to the interests Of the depositors
Representative Mcleod paved the way for the emlna
ton of all of these difficulties when he introduced his
pay-off bill at the last session.
Under that bill the Reconstruction Finance Corporation
would have been directed to purchase the assets of the
closed banks and paw off the deposit liability This would
have eliminated the receivershps and would have lett II
m to the Government quda the assets at the proper
time.
That bill was killed largely by trickery and in its place
Congress enacted the bill which authorized the Recon
struction Finance Corporation to do the Things tnat W.T.
