One Army Exempted

One private army, that of the
Duke of Atholl, in Scotland, will
be exempted in the law to put an
end to all political armies. This
army, which has only $50 men, was
created in 1845, when Queen Vic
toria visited Scotland, and the then
duke welcomed her at the head of
his clansmen, armed with ancient
Scottish battle-axes. She was so
pleased that she granted a royal
patent permitting the duke to main
tain standing army.

REASON BEFORE
 FORGE HUGHES
Chief Justices Speech h Regarded as Opposition
 to Court Plan
By JOHN A. REIcHMANN

nY 0VMAAN Is MAEAOAAkAA tAANAN Limited Press Staff COrrespOndent)
 Washington, May 6.-(UP)-Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes made a stirring plea today for "she pro- cesses of reason as opposed to the tyranny of force" in a speech before the American Law Institute.
 The address appeared to be di- rected at President RooSevelts court reorganization program but did not mention the plan specifically.
 Hughes plea came at the end Of a speech, usually routine, which he has made each spring for eight years.
 The chief justice defended the progress of procedure in the courts generally and cited instances of im- provement in the administration of justice by reforms from time to time. Now, he said, the court can devote itself almost exclusively to questions of great public importance even though many of the cases it decides are of little surface Signifi- canoe as seen by the public.
 As before the senate judiciary committee, to which letter from him was read during hearings on the presidents plan, Hughes report ed the court was well abreast of its work and said that every member of the bench studied every case thor oughly.
 Turning from this, he engaged in a burst of oratory such as seldom comes from him.
 "The success of democratic insti- tutions," he said, turning from a word of appreciation for the service rendered by the law institute in helping court procedure, Ties in the success of the processes of req son as opposed to the tyranny of force.
 Between these two society must choose. If society chooses the pro- cesseS of reason, it must maintain the institutions which embody these processes. Institutions for the exer- else of the law making power and for the execution of law must have their fitting complement in the in- SblCuLIOLlS TUT Lllc CSEpTtIdaiOll IOI the application of laws, for the safeguarding of individual rights, through competent and independ- ent judiciary.
 'The firm and true adnlinistra- tion of justice is thus the primary concern of civilized society. That administration must find It's ulti- mate assurance, not in statutes or forms but in the sentiment of 8 free people, themselves tolerant and reasonable and keenly alive to the necessity of maintaining the instru- mentalities for the impartial deter imitation of controversies.
 Tn the spirit and method of your cooperation you have shown. how that end may be achieved
 Hughes words were his most out spc xen since the court controversy de,;eloped. While his letter to the committee was interpreted as in op- position to the presidents plan, his words today far surpassed his letter in significance.

it was upon members of this bivaive family that Chef Gardiner performed his championship opera tionS, opening the oysters faster than we could eat them-the kind of an oyster-orening contest we like to be in on. Charleston pond oysters are on the communistic order-they live in clumpS, one for all, all for one, and they have mild salty taste. Now taste. Now little further south from Pawcatuck you come upon Connecticut's own Mumford Cove oysters (the Cove is just a little west of Noank and to get there by auto you leave No. l highway just east of Poquonock Bridge) Mumford Cove oysters are highly individualistic mollusks preferring to live separate and clumped lives and they dearly love to establish their colonies on clean sand where they move and have their being, offering not syl- lable of complaint or regret as the roofs over their heads and under their feet give away to skilfull touch of suhc masters of art of dispos- session as Chef Gardiner.

 A whales ear-drum. There's treat for curious eyes. We cannot say, for sure, anything about the size of our own ear drums but we do know that whales ear drum is a monstrous contraption. You will find them on exhibition in the whal- ing museum maintained by the Mar iners Savings Bank next the post office in New London and to which the public has standing invita- tion providing the visiting is done during banking hours. The whales ear drums look like pink abalone shells-one from finback whale, the other from a humpback whale. And in the same cabinet, almost next the whales hearing apparatus are a pair of copper earrings which once dangled from the ears of Cap tain Asa Benjamin noted as an im- portant figure in the Williams & Haven fleet, home port, New Lon don.

WINTER FLYING
 TO BE SAFER
New Regulations, Experi- ments Will Cut Down
 Accidents
BY SANDoR s. KLEIN


 Limited Press Staff COrrespOndent)
 Washington, May 6--CUP) Bur eau of air commerce officials ex- pressed confidence today that new regulations and experiments will make winter flying safer than ever before.
 Following one of commercial! aviation's most disastrous winters, the bureau is working to remove the perilous aspects of cold weather flying, revealed in investigations of seven of the eight fatal crashes since mid-December.
 Corrective measures include:
 1. Promulgation of a rule requir- ing all commercial aircraft to be equipped with shielded loop anten- mas. The shield will insure against interruption of radio reception by ice on the antenna. It also will eliminate to large extent static induced by electrically charged snow and ram particles.
 2. Requirement. that all commer- cial aircraft be equipped with ra- dio direction finders to aid in blind flying when radio beam transmits sion or reception fails. It was pointed out that this would help pilots during winter snow storms.
 3. Improvement and expansion of weather reporting and transmit ting. The bureau is eliminating one of the chief faults in transmission through replacement of old type beam transmission towers with new ones which will permit simultaneous sending of weather reports and course signals to fliers.
 Maj. R. w. Schroeder, retiring as- sistant director of the bureau, re- vealed that wind tunnel tests were being made to eliminate recently discovered hazard involving ice for nation on ailerons, which provide lateral control for airplaneS.
