Bacon Declares Bureau Is
Overwhelmed by Patron

On the heels of a bitter attack on
Che Bureau OF Air Commerce In the
House yesterday. that body today
continued consideration of a STA, ,467,-
600 four department supply bill carry
Ing appropriations for the bureau.
Speaking as a ranking member of
the subcommittee on appropriations
for the Department of Commerce.
Representative Bacon, Republican, Of
New York, declared the Air Commerce
Bureau has been overwhelmed re-
Gently by politics, bureaucracy and
the inescapable incompetency which
flows from a rapaciouS patronage"
The supply bill, which would allow
additional funds for extending airways
equipped with radio and other facili-
ties and for controlling air traffic at
main airportS, also would provide 1887
fiscal year operating money for the
State, Justice and Labor Departments.
Maintenance Funds Earmarked.
Questioned at Bacon's insistenee
during hearings on the bill, Air Com
merce Bureau officials denied that i'm
proper working of facilities had caused
the Missouri crash last year in which
Senator Bronson Cutting of New
Mexico was killed, and other major
air disasters.
They also asserted that diversion of
some unused maintenance money for
other purposes had not hurt airway
upkeep, but the committee carefully
earmarked the maintenance funds in
the new bill.
Bacon quoted from a report by J. A..
Mount, superintendent of main
tenance in the bureau at the time
OF the Cutting crash, that "the acci-
dent was the direct result of improper
functioning of aids to air naviga-
ton installed and maintained by the
Department of Commerce"
Rooted Out of Service.
"I am informed that since the Cut
ting crash the Bureau of Air Com
merce has improved conditions at
Kirksville materially" Bacon said
"AlSo, however. it has rooted out of
the Government, after some Is years
Of continuous service in the aeronau-
tics branches, the man whose duty
1t was to report and who did report,
these conditions prior to the accident"
Chairman Mcmillan Democrat, Of
South Carolina of the subcommittee,
replied to Bacon that there was a
great deal of trouble before the Demo-
Gratis ever got in control. so I don't
think it fair to charge the Democrats
with the conditions"

it is necessary to criticize the re-

what the French Peoples Front

possibility of statewide strike
