MeSaba and Vermilion district of Elcor.
In addition to those named, the pre-
Sentation was graced by the presence of
w. P. Chinn, general manager; A. D.
Chisholm, assistant general manager;
E. w. Leach, manager of mining; j. G.
Metcalf and N H. Gallagher, with the
engineering forces, all from the Lake
Superior organization of the company.
Safety Superintendent Hager served
as chairman of the meeting and intro
duced the noted guests. Mr.. Hager also
introduced the SPEAKERS for the. oc-
caSion with well given remarks in each
case. He stated that it offered him
pleasure to be able to state that for CO.
operation, the Zenith employees and
management gave every assistance to
the safety measures proposed.
Edward Leach in his brief talk stated
that the men before him were "the
safest miners in Minnesota" He cited
the record of Minnesota mines and the
development of the safety movement
He asked the employees to confer among
themselves and with the safety inSpec-
tors show no reluctance in bringing
their opinions on conditions to the
fore and by so doing not only help the
officials but also themselves in removing
dangerous obstacles to safety. Mr.. Leach
said he was more than pleased over the
record achieved by the Zenith and
pledged every effort of the company in
helping the forces retain this record
General Manager Chinn spoke in a
reaSSuring vein as to the holp of the
company by furnishing anything de-
sired to maintain the record. He also
spoke of the fire fighting equipment
installed, its adoption by the miners and
the efficiency with which it was put to
use. He cited the award of the Holmes
certificate and stated the Zenith had
won the honor without competition
from anywhere as no other property in
the underground class was anywhere
close in the contest.
Archie Hedloff, who accepted the
awards on behalf of the miners, told
of the satisfaction expressed in re-
ceiving the awards and pledged the I'M
divided efforts of the forces to main
tain the record achieved. MIR. Hedloff' s
talk was roundly applauded, especially
after he had made the statement that
the men at the head of the Zenith were
at all times willing to talk things over
and make any necessary financial in
veStmentS for the betterment of their
employees safety and welfare.
Superintendent Ben S. Richards Of
the PickandS, Mather company interests
in Ely, closed the speaking part of the
program. Mr. Richards said he had not
always worked for the P. M. company
but in his contact with the officers had
come to the conclusion he was working
for ''the best mining company and for
officials who had the safety of the men
at heart from the head of the company

TO QUIZ
LIBERTY
LEAGUE
International News Service

-AAS~AAs@SA0~N-NA WV
With its members ensnarled in
disputes, both personal and legal,
the Senate Lobby Committee today
completed its field investigation
and prepared for q final series Of
public hearings involving the
American Liberty League, the
SentinelS Of the Republic, and the
Crusaders.
The committees work of gather
ing evidence is now done. There
will be no more seizing Of tele-
grams, offices files, and CORE
spondence. Committee members
said this was because their agents
have gathered all the evidence that
can possibly be used, not because
number Of individuals and or
ganizations have challenged the
legality Of these seizures.
Hearings ON "SOOn"
The date for reopening hearings
was not announced, but Chairman
Black CD Of Alabama said they
would be started "soon".
Investigation of the Liberty
League promised the most inter-
eSting work ahead. For months
the committee has been gathering
evidence of the leagues activities.
Although the league filed with
the clerk of the House Of Repre-
SentativeS a statement as to the
amount Of money it expended last
year, the committee planned to 60
into this phase of the leagues &C.
tivitieS also. Members expected to
quiz members of the leagues execu-
tive forces regarding the contribu-
tionS Of such industrial leaders as
the duPontS, and other wealthy
persons.
Senator Gibson of Vermont, one
of the two Republican members Of
the committee, was in charge Of
the Crusaders investigation, He
revealed recently that the commit
tee had evidence that this organi-
zation, when its initial objective Of
prohibition repeal was accom-
plished. reformed and worked in
connection with other legislation.
Plans Legal Battles
The committee attorney, Cramp-
ton Harris, of Birmingham, mean
while, was preparing arguments
for the legal battles facing the in
vestigatorS.
A hearing on the suit Of william
Randolph Hearst, to enjoin the
committee from making use of tele-
graphic files which it has seized,
was the next step in the suits pend
ing. This will come up in the Dis
trict Of Columbia Supreme Court
in the near future.
A special resolution providing a
$4,000 fee for Harris has passed
the Senate, but still must pass the
House and be signed by President
Roosevelt. Black could have Sc
cured this money from the Senate'S
contingent fund by a simple Senate
resolution, but preferred to draft
it in the form of joint resolution,
so both houses and the President
would pass on it.

the law.
Action in Two Minutes
Within two minutes the broad.
cast flashed over the air. And
at 1909 precisely, two minutes
after the radio warning, officers
w. S. Morris and II. H. Hodge,
of the Second Precinct, arrived
at the scene and arrested a man
who is now charged with a holdup
and robbery.
Such is the efficiency of the
radio-Scout car system, when some.
one breaks the law. But not all
calls are successful, and many are
useless, false alarms. Sometimes
the officers arrive too late; some,
times they spend an hour search

Guilty.
Mr.. Public does not know this,
however. All he hears is the orig.
inal broadcast, which often gives
no clue to the actual occurrence.
If Mr.. Public could see the police
records, on such an average day
as March %, he would find such
items as these, from among the
212 calls on that day:

"Under Consideration"

PARIS, March 81 Q.N.S0.
France and Germany, at logger
heads over nullified treaties, were
plunged into a sharp controversy
over the route Of the giant diri-
gible Won Hindenburg today as the
French Foreign Office said the
question of permitting the airship
to fly over France was still under
consideration" and Germany
charged deliberate delay.
Confirming that a long-Standing
application for the privilege of
crossing French territory has not
been acted upon in time for the
Won Hindenburg'S maiden voyage
to Rio de Janeiro, the government
revealed that the airway to the
United States Is also unsettled.
The foreign office said the queS-
ton was not one Of just the voy-
age that the Won Hindenburg be-
gan today, but q longtime matter
for regular transatlantic flights.

JANEIRO, March 81 (I.N.S0.
Forced by international tension

eight hours to her journey and
sacrificing the possibility Of a
transatlantic record, the largest
dirigible ever built, the Won
Hindenburg, left Freidrichshafen
at $50 a. m. today on her maiden
voyage to Rio de Janeiro.
The Hindenburg reached the

Cathedral at Cologne were passed,
and the Won Hindenburg'S COM

i. 5. AIR AIDS
AREBRANDED
OBSOLETE

Seventy-five per cent Of Gov.
ernment aids to commercial
aviation are obsolete and 80
per cent Of its steamboat IN
spection equipment should be
junked, Government officials told
a House Appropriations Bubcom.
mittee, it was learned today
when secret testimony was made
public.
Eugene Vidal, director Of the
Bureau Of Air Commerce, and
his assistant, Rex Martin, said
much Of the Government flying
aids became obsolete almost
over night" 10 months ago when
"airlineS developed their flying
technique to the point where ra-
dio could be used for guidance. 1"
Chairman Mcmillan CD OF
South Carolina asked:
"What percentage Of your
equipment would you say Is
absolutely ObsOIete?"
Vidal replied:
"It ID pretty difficult to an
Swer that. Mr.. Martin, would
you say IS per cent?"
Martin said this was the ap-
proximate percentage Of obSo-
lete Equipment, including radio
machines and night flying aids.
Much Of the equipment, how
ever, Vidal explained, is in good
working order, but simply Is out
moded.
Vidal said commercial aviation
experts estimated the cost Of mod
ernizing government flying aid at
81 million dollars, while his own
bureau gave as estimate Of at
least Q millions, but the Budget
Bureau Slashed this to 5 millions.
The plight Of the equipment of
the Bureau Of Navigation and
Steamboat Inspection was told by
Joseph B. Weaver, director.
Mcmillan asked the number of
patrol boats the bureau has in
operation, and was told:
1--WE have six patrol boats al
together, but one is on the Great
Lakes out of commission, so we
have five in service, We have
none on the West Coast"
Mcmillan:
''What is the condition Of
these bOatS?"
Weaver:
with the exception of the
one We purchased last year, in
my Judgment they should all
be scrapped."
