TO RESIGN
DENIED BY VIDAL
Program Not Yet Completed,
He Says, Back From
Five.Day Flight.

Eugene L. Vidal, director of the
Bureau Of Air Commerce, today de-
MED reports that he is preparing to
resign from the Government service
He said he entered the service to
carry out "a definite program for the
advancement of civil aeronautics," 4"
and this program has not been COM
pleted.
Vidal, who returned to his desk in
the Commerce Department today
after a five-day flight in the new
flying laboratory" of the Air Com
merce Bureau to check Federal air
navigation aids, issued a brief formal
statement denying the report. The
statement follows:
Reports published today and in
the past few months that I have pre-
pared my resignation as director of
air commerce are without foundation.
When 1 entered public service I
did so with the purpose of carrying
out a definite program for the ad-
vancement of civil aeronautics. That
program has not been completed"
At the same time the Commerce
Department announced it will seek
$4,000, 900 to improve airways safety
facilities during the next two years.
The money. If granted by Congress,
Will be used to improve and modern
ize radio and other aids to air trans
portation and to develop new safety
appliances, it was explained by Col.
John M. johnson, Assistant Secretary
of Commerce.
Vidal said that, while he has not
received definite reports on the re-
cent air transport accidents. there is
enough information to convince him
the accidents have not been due to
faults OF any ground equipment.
He indicated that radio failures due
to icing of airplane antennae may
have been at fault in one or more of
the mishaps, but the definite causes
will not be known until the Com
merce Department Investigations are
completed

pressed minorities Of our people will
never be reunited with the mother
country by protests, but only by the
sword"
Economic Reality Spurned.
This is not the voice of Germany,
but it Is the voice of the man in
whose hands Germany's destiny rests.
They are words remote from every
economic reality. Expansion, the re-
vision of frontiers, whether by politics
or by war, is no solution for any ma
tion's ills. Britain, whose common
wealth covers a fourth of the globe,
cannot colonize her unemployed. New
land and soil will not put a single
piece Of bread in a single German
child's mouth. Does Hitler still mean
these words, or has he repudiated
them? Can one preach at home in
equality of races and nations and
advocate abroad good will toward all
men? Can one affirm the necessity
of expansion and offer non-aggres-
sion pacts?
Let us not cherish the illusion that
the answer does not concern this
country. For no highly organized ma
ton Is there a way out of the depres-
sion except through the restoration
OF peace and good faith amongst
people and the resumption Of world
trade. Fascism has got to be an
swered with q positive and construc-
tive program. For only Q little while

DEATHS IN A|RLA|D
TO NO INSPECTION
Cone Says 100 Flyers Killed
in Two Years Because
of Fault.

Lack Of proper Federal aviation In
spection was blamed for the deaths of
100 flyers, most of them student pilots,
during the past two years by Col. j.
Carroll Gone, assistant director of air
commerce in charge of regulations,
during hearings on the 1887 Commerce
Department appropriation bill, it was
revealed yesterday when the bill was
reported to the House.
Department of Commerce officials
admitted that there is an "abysmal"
gap between the growth of civil avia-
ton and that of Federal control.
I'VE have become quite alarmed over
the situation" Col. John M. Johnson.
Assistant Secretary of Commerce, told
the committee.
johnson said the domestic airline
people in the United States had drawn
up list of what they consider in
dispensable aids to air navigation
which would involve expenditure of
e31, 100000 of Federal funds over
period of two years. The total appro-
priation for the Bureau of Air Com
merce was reduced to S6.220,0 900 during
the. course of Budget Bureau con-
sideration, the hearings show.
Col johnson also revealed that sit
vas very probable that one of the big
producers" would soon come out with a
cheap plane. This producer, not identi-
fed in the hearings. but believed to
be Henry Ford, has about 10000
points of distribution, and might well,
in couple of years, put out between
10000 and $4,000 planes, which, in
addition to what We have and what
might be the normal increase in that
time, might multiply the number of
planes in the air by six or seven
times" johnson said.
Testimony showed that aviation has
grown beyond the airway aids which
few years ago were regarded as
efficient and that about 60 out of 1856
radio range stations along the airways
today are obsolete.
Despite the need for improvement
of Federal airway equipment, Col
johnson testified, the Bureau of Air
SuIlLllClCC QulLls lliC pdoC yCdI lldS
not been able to get cent from Pub
lie Works Administration funds be-
cause of restrictions on "the man
year cost"
In response to questions from COM
mittee members as to reflections made
upon the efficiency of the Bureau of
Air Commerce by witnesses before the
Senate subcommittee. johnson de-
Tended the bureau, saying that "it is
as efficient as all Of the circumstances
would permit
Bureau officials testified that there
are now only 60 general aeronautical
inspectors, although there now are
$4,000 licensed pilots, $500 licensed
airplanes outside the airline equip
ment, approximately 2.50o unlicensed
airplanes and more than IS 900 stu
dent pilots.
