NEGRO COLONY
FUND SOUGHT

Plans for the establishment of a

sistence-homestead colony in Cal
vert county, Md, are being per-
fected by a group of former How

and the Public Works Administra-

It is said that Francis H. Dry
den, director of the works divi
sion in Maryland, and Abel VOL

approached unofficially in connec-
ton with the project, but referred
further inquiries to the Public
Works Administration here.
The project is led by Albert 7.

be located on tract of 500 acres

The airport of the National
Capital ought logically to be
one of the best in the United
States, suitable base for the

which other cities might turn

at present to be generally
agreed that it is one of the
least satisfactory.

EXCERPTSG GIVEN
FROM MESSAGE
ON AVIATION

The text of President Roosevelt'S q
to Congress submitting
the report of the Federal Aviation
Commission follows in part:
I am submitting herewith the
report of the Federal Aviation
Commission appointed by me
last summer by direction of the
Seventy-third Congress.
AS I have suggested on many
occasions, it becomes more and
more apparent that the Govern
ment of the United States
should bring about a consolida-
tion Of its methods of supervi-
sion over all forms Of transpor-
tation.
I earnestly suggest that the
Congress consider these various
reports together in the light Of
the necessity for the develop
ment of interrelated planning
of our national transportation.
At later date I shall ask the
Congress for general legislation
centralizing the supervision of
air and water and highway
transportation with adjust
ments of our present methods
of organization in order to meet
new and additional responsible.

There are detailed questions.
however, that require early &C.
ton. Our extended mail con-
tracts with air lines expire ON

legislation dealing with primary
and secondary routes should be
revised before that time.
The commission suggests that

mission be given temporarily
the power to lower or increase
air mail rates as warranted in

vestigation.
I concur in this recommends.
tion of the Federal Aviation
Commission provided always
that the grant of this duty to
the Interstate Commerce Com
mission be subject to provisions
against unreasonable profits by
any private carrier. On &C.
account of the fact that an es-
sential objective during this
temporary period is to provide
for the continuation of eff.
GENTLY operated companies and
to guard against their destruc.
ton, it is only fair to suggest
that during this period any
profits at all by such com.
panies should be a secondary
consideration.
The commission further
recommends the creation of a
temporary Air Commerce Com
mission. In this recommends
tion I am unable to concur. I
believe that we should avoid the
multiplication of separate regu.
latory agencies in the field Of
transportation.

He Beats Wife,

MT. HOLLY, N. j., Jan. 81

went the rounds Of Mt. Holly

'If you beat your wife, and

"Sure. Both of them needed

urge as of the utmost impor-
tance that the task of studying
the comparative values of all
the. sites proposed and making
a report, the acceptance of
which as conclusive may rea"
sonably be anticipated, should
be referred to some body with
out further delay.
Reference of the responsibility
for final decision to almost any
competent party five years ago
would have been better than
the postponement of any de-
cision over so long a period.
We earnestly hope that it may
be possible to avoid futher post
ponement. In time of peace,
Washington's lack of really ade-
quate airport facilities is a
nuisance and a civic shame.
In time of war, with the i'm
mense use that the govern.
mental personnel would have
to make of aircraft for official
travel, a continuation of the
present conditions would be a
real handicap to the war effort.

14POL|CEHEARD
: ON RATINGS

The police department board of
inspectors is today considering pro
tests made yesterday by five police
lieutenants who told why they
thought their efficiency and fit
ness ratings are unfair, and will
hear a lieutenant, five sergeants,
and eight privates.
Those heard yesterday by the in
spectors are Lieuts. w. c. Balder-
son, of the Sixth precinct; Emil
Desch, Eleventh precinct; H. R.
Lohman, Eighth precinct; o. j.
Letterman, Fourth precinct, and
Acting Lieut.. Thomas Mason, of
the Traffic Bureau. Lieut.. Lloyd
Kelly, of the Fifth precinct, was
not notified in time for yesterdays
hearing.
The protests came to light at
the time charge was made that
photostatic copies of the Civil
Service questions had reached the
hands of persons taking the ex-
amlna tlonS. An investigation into
this charge has been made by the
Civil Service Commission and no
evidence of it has been uncovered,
it was said.
The officers who appeared be-
fore the board said inaccurate in.
formation on their work and abil-
ity had caused them to receive a
lower rating than was their due.
The ratings were revised on the
theory that no policeman is 100
per cent perfect and 88 was fixed
as the maximum of efficiency.
This revision changed the ratings
of many officers from the 9Os to
the 80s, which disturbed them
greatly. Some held that younger
policemen with little experience
had ratings far above older mem
bers Of the force.

Other recommendations are:
