40 AIR RECORDS
FOR U. S. SOUGHT
National Aeronautic Association
Announces Plan for Drive
February l.

A campaign to bring at least 40
international aviation records to the
United States will be launched Feb
ruary l, the National Aeronautic As
sociation announced yesterday.
Early last Summer the United States
passed France in the race for world
leadership in aviation records. French
aviators responded to the challenge
and first one country, then the other,
was in the lead Today the United
States. with 80 records, leads by a
margin of l, and a single successful
attempt by France on any one of two
score records would reverse the posi-
tions of the two nations.
The National Aeronautic Associ-
alton, which, as American represent
ative Of the Federation Aeronautiuue
Internationale, is in charge of the
holding of all record flights, has posted
a SlO0 cash award for the first Ameri-
can pilot to establish or break an
international record for this country
after February l. In addition, the con-
test board of the association has
agreed to waive all fees connected with
certifying the record before the F.
A. I. at Paris.
The prize, however, is open only for
light airplanes. light seaplanes and
light amphibians, in which categories
the greatest number of possible records
are listed. The prize is open to every

BANKERS ARE URGED
TO REVISE THINKING
Flood of Gold, With Threat Of
Infationary Prices, Cited
by Economist.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 31-Prof.
Harry D. Gideonse, University of Chi
cago economist, in an interview to-
day viewed the flood Of gold into the
United States as threat and temp
tation, against which he urged bank
ers to adopt some "new-fashioned
thinking"
He said the gold hoard now
amounted to $4,000, 900 900, but that
it need not necessarily cause alarm.
What we need" he said, "is some
new-fashioned thinking on the part
Of the Nations bankers. They must
realize that this temptation-the sur
plus gold-exiSts, and then disregard
it in expanding credit"
Describing this enormous supply of
the precious metal as the largest in
history, Gideonse said it provided an
invitation for what he termed the
widest gold jag" ever known-wild-
est because it's size had never before
been equaled in Government finance.
with this tremendous supply Of
gold prices could soar to twice the
levels of the 1929 BOOM" Gideonse
said.
They could rise another so per
cent beyond those of l9l9-2O, when
the pinch of high prices was most
painful"
Should credit expansion run wild,
Gideonse said, there would result the
uprooting OF whole social classes, since
the balloon-like rise of costs would
impoveriSh Salaried workers"

only the first of a series designed to

to act more strongly, but, Lands ex.
