NEW DEMAND
FORFREEDOM
Radio Licensing System As
sailed by Former Head Of
Publishers Group

WATERVILLE, Maine, May 18
G.N.SO.-The call to battle for
free speech and a free press was
sounded again today when COM
memoration ceremonies we're held
for Elisha Lovejoy at Colby Col
lege.
Howard Davis, former president
of the American Newspaper Pub
fishers Association, and Col. Rob-
ert r. Mccormick, Chicago pub.
Usher, were the speakers who
urged that the fight continue I'M
til it is won.
Lovejoy, the inspiration for
their remarks, was an abolitionist
editor, killed by a mob while de-
Tending his press at Alton, ILL.,,
in 1887. He was an early stu
dent at Colby.
Urges Free Radio
Mr.. Davis said the battle for
freedom of the press has been
WOH 4UL VIC pIcSSIlG UuG VIC
battle for free radio has not
yet begun. Calling the present
system of radio regulation at
Washington "a travesty on the
impartial control that should
prevail" he expressed hope that
"all the liberal forces of the
country will devote increasing
attention" to the issue.
The newspaper publishers, Colo
mel Mccormick said, were the only
group that stood firm in a great
contest in this country that began
three years ago, and has not yet
ended.
Demands Freedom
That contest, he said, is "to de-
eide whether the principles Of
arbitrary government reestablish
in Europe after a century Of
democratic advance shall be al
lowed to cross the ocean and crush
all that the revolution gained, the
constitution organized, and the
Bill of Rights guaranteed"

Aroused by a report that the
War Department was at odds with
Chairman McSwain of the House
Military Affairs Committee, over

General MacArthur's statement
said:
"The story carried by the AssO-

flict of views between the War
Department and Chairman Nc
Swain of the House Military
Affairs Committee with reference
to the amendment to the West
Point bill authorizing the yearly
training of 1900 reserve officers
and appointing IS to the regu-

playing, almost 5000 stalwart
youngsters, members of the school
boy patrols from the District and

The parade is held each year
under the auspices of the school
department, the police depart
ment and the American Automo-
bile Association, in honor Of the
boy members of the safety patrols
who are on duty each day at
street crossings at all schools.
These boys, with their white
belts and badges, are schooled by
police in directing traffic, and in
the few years since the plan was
innovated they have prevented
many accidents.
Through use of the boys, the
District and other cities have
been able to safeguard the school
children in a manner not other
wise possible.
Roper Sees Marchers
A reviewing stand was erected
at the Monument grounds, and
there Secretary of Commerce
Daniel Roper viewed the parade
and made a radio address on
safety.

took one hour and nine minutes to

Hupp Corporation Among
Those Expected to
Advance.

The importance of the indepen-

motor car production is being
strengthened by reports which are
seeping out regarding new models
which this year are to be announced
many weeks earlier than has here
tofore been customary.
Among these independent manu-
facturers who give promise of stag

proportion of the total sales volume,
is the Hupp Motor Car Corp,
now under the vigorous leadership
of President Vern R. Drum, for

Among the reports which give
rise to this belief are hints Of de-

PENNIES SOUGHT
TO BUY PICTURE
Pontiac Company to Receive
Oil Painting of Indian
Chief.

Citizens of Pontiac. Mich, have
started a campaign which has for
its goal the presentation of a por-
trait of Chief Pontiac to the Pom
tiac Motor Co.
SiXty-five thousand citizens Of the
city are asked to give at least one
penny apiece for the purchase of an
oil painting of the chief to be hung
in the new Oakland Avenue admin
istratfon building which the COM
pany will occupy late this month.
In the public appeal for pennies
which was made this week it was
pointed out that although the Pom
tiac Motor Company has made the
name Pontiac famous throughout
the world and has carried the In
dian head into every civilized
country of the globe, it possesses
no official likeness of the famous
Indian chieftain from whom the
city and the automobile derive their
names.
Originally it was planned to pre-
sent the picture as a gift of a few
downtown firms and individuals, but
the enthusiasm on the part of every
one who was approached, suggested
opening the contribution list to the
community at large and limiting it
to copper pennies.
The pennies are being collected
during an intensive campaign with
the idea of making the presentation
the daY before Thanksgiving.

II EXPERIENCED aviators are sold
T. on one of the fundamentals of
living long and happy lives in the
flying business. And that funda-
mental is :. Don't try to beat the
weather!
Some of the new pilots are prone
to think that because science has
been good to us in developing the
marvellous aids to cross fly
ing that the day has arrived when
we can do anything we like about
flying in any kind of weather.
The radio beams that tie the
country together like ribbons are in
valuable . they have given man
the means to find his way around
the planet without using his eyes.
But while it is possible for the
trained pilot to take off from an
airport today and navigate his way
to a destination hundreds of miles
away, without looking over the side
of his airplane or without studying
the earth's surface beneath him, he
still must have due regard and re-
spect for "OP Man Weather"

victory and defeat in mans many
wars. It is weather that still de-
cides what we eat or how much we
eat, or what We will pay for our
food. 1t forces men to select GER
TAM occupations, and avoid certain
others.
In fact, weather is one of the
most important factors in human
life. Pleasures, occupations, ma
tional and individual psychology,
trends of thought, physical and
mental development-all are strong
ly influenced by Mother Nature.
Living organisms must breathe in
order to refresh themselves. To
breathe, we must have ventilation,
or circulation of air. It's a curious
thought-and a mighty interesting
one-to reflect that the weather is
merely the breathing action of this
planet. Changes in weather are due
to the differences in temperatures
of various bodies of air around the
earth.

COVETED SHOW

Honor Awarded for Ninth
Consecutive Time on
Sales Record.

For the ninth consecutive time,
first choice of exhibit space at the
National Automobile Shows in New
York and Chicago, awarded each
year by the Automobile Manufac-
turers' Association to the automobile
manufacturer with the highest dol

While the show was held under
the management of the National
Automobile Chamber of Commerce,
the custom of alloting first selection
of space to the sales leader was
followed for many years, as being
the fairest method of awarding this
coveted honor.
Last year, when the Automobile
Manufacturers Association, sue
cessor to the chamber, turned the
show management over to the New
York Automotive Merchants Asso-

adopted the same method. With the
