AIR SUPREMACY
DRIVE LAUNCHED
U. S. Aviation Interests Co.
Ordinated in Effort to
Promote Flying.

A Nationwide drive to restore the
United States to supremacy in avia-
/ ton, including systematic assaults on
the outstanding world flight records,
| was formally launched yesterday by
the National Aeronautic Association,
. American sport governing body for
aviation and representative of the
. Federation Aeronautique Interna-
tionale.
All aviation interests in the coun-
try are being co-ordinated in cam
. paign to regain the world major air
records, promote air travel through
. out the United States and increase
public interest in the whole field of
aeronautics through national and
local educational efforts, Senator
William G. McAdoo of California,
president of the association, explained.
Records to Be Sought.
world airplane records can be re-
turned to the United States with eX-
listing equipment as soon as properly
sponsored attempts can be arranged,
it was predicted by the associations
. Contest Committee.
. May and June have been set as
) the months for a combined assault on
these records by private owners and
+ airplane and engine manufacturers.
$ Americas position in world avia-
: tion must and can be improved -
Senator McAdoo said. AT present
we are a poor second among the
nations of the world in the number
) of major airplane records held. Some
g experts rank us only fourth in mill
tary aviation strength.
In commercial aviation our Sery-
ices, equipment and personnel will
rank with any other services in the
world, but the American public SO far
has failed to take full advantage of
our air transportation despite Is
I years devoted to its organization and
the millions of dollars which have
; been poured out to maintain its eff
cheney"
For Militant Campaign.
Senator McAdoo announced q
militant campaign" to stir up the
American public and to aid manufac-
turers, flyers and aviation groups in
building up American flying. The
capturing of world records is to be
only part of the program to build
up the prestige of American planes
and pilots and hold increase foreign
sales of American aviation products,
the Californian explained.
Doubling of the number of air pas
sengers during 1885 will be one of the
goals of the campaign. Cooperation
with schools and colleges in the estab-
lishment of aviation courses, stimula-
tion of model airplane building in
junior schools and increased aeronau-
tical engineering also will be under
taken.
The association also will sponsor
international aviation contests, such

Controversial Issues
Before SOlons
l23-DAY SESSION
ASSEMBLY is HECTIC

RALEIGH, May l3.-The 1885
general assembly adjourned sine
die on Saturday afternoon at 1902
O'Clock after a hectic session con-
tinuing over period of 1913
days during which time the most
controversial issues were the gen.
eral sales tax and the liquor
question.
In the final week of the SEES
sion the vets finally pushed thru
legislation that may clear the
way for legislation legalizing the
sale of liquor in II counties and
two townships. The manufacture
of wines and cider was legalized
in the state.
Advocates of a higher alcoholic
content for beer won a victory
several weeks ago when they sue
ceeded in boosting the content
from 3.2 to per cent.
Liquor legislation provides that
if the act is ratified at a called
election these counties may have
a dispensary system of their own
with a county board of control.
Counties included in the act
are New Hanover, Pasquotank,
Pitt, Beaufort, Martin, Halifax,
Edgecombe Craven, Franklin,
Warren, Rockingham, Lenoir,
Greene, Nash, Wilson and Carter
ct. Southern Pines and Pine
hurst, in Moore county, were the
two townships included.
Few changes were made in
taxes. Exemptions, except on
milk, were provided for the sales
tax and a new chain tax on fill
ing stations was provided.
In the more than $64, 100000
appropriations was sufficient
money to raise salaries of state
employees and teachers by 20 per
cent in 1886 and 25 per cent
in 1867. Appropriations for
all departments, institutions and
services were raised.
The assembly enacted state
wide drivers license law to be-
come effective on November l.
Passenger car license rates were
cut from 55 to 40 cents per
hundredweight. The Legislators
also doubled the size of the state
highway patrol.
A bond issue of 100000 was
provided for construction OF
buildings at Caswell Training
school, Kinston, and at hospitals
for insane at Morganton, Raleigh
and Goldsboro. ,
A $250,O00 issue was provided
for the construction of a tuber-
culosis sanitarium to be construct
ed in the western part OF the
state. :.
Several counties secured aboll-
ton of the absentee ballot in
elections, but no state wlde
change was made. ,
A statewide school book rental
system was provided and the

WARSAW, May 13.-The -PO
lish people early yesterday were
shocked TO learn through a delayed

dictator and greatest hero.
Madame Alexandra Pilsudski,
the marshaPs widow, is in a seri-
Gus conditions following a heart
attack caused by grief.
Although the marshal died at
1855 p. m, surrounded by men,
bers of his immediate family, and

anxiety at the loss of his firm hand
Withheld official word in Poland
until 1890 a. m. today.
In a manifesto, issued by the
president. Poles were asked to
build their young republic into a
mighty nation as a fitting tribute
to the dead marshal, whose death
came on the ninth anniversary Of
the coup of May 10, 1886, when
he emerged from retirement to
lead his political supporters in a
campaign to save his country from
anarchy.
He dedicated his life to the
cause of Polish freedom. In boy
hood he went TO prison under the
car.
He suffered from cancer of the
liver and stomach but died in
peace, as he had just seen inau-
gurated a new constitution which
he believed would insure his coun-
try being governed by the strong
est men.
simultaneously, official appoint
ment was announced of General
Edward Ryde-Smigly as Inspector
general of the army, succeeding
Marshal Pilsudski.
General Zbiguiev Kasprzycki,
vice-minister of war, officially was
elevated to Pilsudski's post as war
minister.
The Polish government ordered
national mourning, closing all the
dance halls and public amusements
