vitality important hearings which will
begin June IS.
1t is understood that representatives
Of the scheduled air transport COM
panies have applied to the commission
for a reassignment to the air trans
port operators of the wave length as
signed to the scheduled aircraft,
which include all those privately
owned and all those in commercial
operation except on actual scheduled
airline service.
The coming hearings are to cover
every phase of radio transmission and
the assignment of wave lengths for
every purpose. While they may, con-
ceivably, result in a recasting of the
whole wave length series, officials of
the commission are more inclined to
believe that present difficulties can be
corrected by minor adjustments along
the scale.
An important question to be con-
sidered is the assignment of the ultra
high frequencies above 10000 kilo-
cycles.
1t is believed that the Bureau of Air
Commerce will join in the opposition
TO discontinuance of the present as
signment for non-scheduled operators
of aircraft. The leading brief on be-
half of the itinerant pilots is to be
presented by James v. Piersol, avia-
ton editor of the Detroit News and
pilot of the fast new radio-equipped
airplane of that papers aviation de-
partment. Piersol is understood to be

GRAND CANYON AIRPORT, in the
~ Kaibab National Forest. has been
opened to air transport operations
under sanction of the Federal Gov
ernment so that transcontinental
passengers on the planes of Transcon-
tinental & Western Air may visit the
canyon en- route.
For the present the airport will
serve only as a flag stop and stop-over
privileges will be granted without
extra charge. On daylight schedules,
transport planes of the line fly along
the south rim Of the canyon. The air
port is 18 miles from the canyon rim
and passengers will be transported
there by automobile through the
Kaibab forest.
The Petrified Forest, the Painted
Desert and the Indian plateau city OF
Acoma are among the points OF in

along which T. IL w. A. operates from

GENERAL adoption of the radio

topic of discussion at two-day meet

Federal Government and the major
airlines at Kansas City June 11-l2.
The instrument, carried aloft by a
small balloon, records temperature,
pressure and relative humidity and
transmits the readings by radio to
automatic recording instruments at
ground stations. Experiments with
the device, conducted during the past

SHORE FERRY
PLAN URGED

GREENSBORO, Md, May 7.
Establishment of a new ferry
service to the Eastern Shore was
advocated today by w. L. Colds
borough, brother Of Representa-
tive T. Alan Goldsborough. -
The ferry line advocated by
him would operate between Sandy
Point on the mainland and Kent
Island, cutting in half the dis
tance travelled by the Matapeake
ferries at present.
Cost of dredging and construct
ing piers would not be more than
$500,000, he said, and he believes
the WPA would aid in the work.
With the short run schedule
Of a boat an hour would be main
tanned during the day and a boat
every two hours all through the
night. The running time for the
trip would be only 20 minutes, he
estimated, using the boats now on

The epic rhapsody America
by Ernest Bloch was performed
for the first time in Washington
last night by the y. S. Marine
Band symphony Orchestra under
the direction of Capt. Taylor
Branson. This historical work
which developed number OF
patriotic and folk songs was re-
ceived with great enthusiasm by
the large audience.
Inspired by the writings of Walt
Whitman and for love of his
adopted country. the composer
has built a comprehensive and
powerful structure in presenting
musical vignettes of our country's
history from 1920 to the present.
The second section introduces
THE Swanee River" Pop Goes
the Weasel" and Hail Colum-
bia," which together with sugges-
tions of other songs gather force
until the climax of battle Civil
War; is reached.
The calm that follows is soon
overcome with the complete form
of the anthem which has at
tempted to make itself heard
frequently but Of which only frag-
mentS are heard in previous pas
sages. The use of familiar themes
in this work makes it especially
interesting.
Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue"
with Irving Filler at the piano,
and Hadley's dance "Marguerites,"
played as a xylophone duet by
Charles Owen and Oliver Zins-
meister, were popular with the au-
dience.
Next week. Captain Branson will
present another first hearing of
patriotic composition by Principal
Musician Siegfried Scharbau, en-
titled "The Dome Of the Capitol" "
