Yet what can we say of a great

The trouble is that we do not
realize that love is to the life and
spirit what the sun is to the body.

Well, CONGRESS convened four months ago.
And during the four months of the session not
murur has been heard from the commission except re-
quest for ten thousand dollars which appropriated
After getting the ten thousand dollars the commits
sion promptly retired into the silence which had en-
veloped it for months.
THIS LEAVES THE NATIONAL CAPITAL IN
EXACTLY THE POSITION IT WAS IN TEN YEARS
AGO WHEN CONGRESS FIRST DECIDED THAT
SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE TO BRING
LOCAL AIRPORT FACILITIES UP TO A STAND
ARD PROPER FOR SUCH CITY AS WASH
INGToN.
Point has been given to the demands for decent air
port by the recent flooding of the Potomac River.
Those floods entirely disrupted local air service
at the military and naval fields
But the whole problem Of commercial air facilities
here gets its urgency not from the floods effect but
from the general inadequacy of facilities.
The Airport Commission attempts to explain its delay
by saying that one of its members has been sick for
couple of months.
It is difficult to accept this explanation for the
mission has plenty of members and this is not
necessary to establish quorum.
In addition to that the commissions work should
have been completed long before this one member be-
came i'll.

PERSONAL INTEREST

Washington's lack of an ade-
quate airport was brought home
forcibly to one member of Con-
greSS during the recent flood.
Representative Ralph o. Brew
ster, of Maine, has become so air
minded that he has flown more
than 100000 miles in the last IL
months.
He was flying to Washington
during the flood and the plane
was unable to make a landing at
Washington Airport and came
down at Boiling Field.
He had all the luck in the world
with him, because he landed just
before the immediate countryside

But, in the background there
are a number of voices who ut

to which he may climb if the

He is being mentioned as a pos

this signal honor, of course, goes

if he achieves this position he will
be naturally in line for the PreSi-

Falling Further Behind

creasing size of arplanes is making necessary an ex
tension of existing apor and provision that arports

What effect does this development have on the exist

These facilities were already recognized as inadequate
before the planes attained their present size.
They we're recognized constituting potential
hazard to those who fly and branded disgrace-

realized that existing facilities here were inadequate

SPEEDY ACTION
DUE IN SENATE
. ON NEUTRALITY
BY ROBERT A. McGILL
International News Service

Prompt Congressional considera'
ton of permanent neutrality legiS-
lation was in sight today as Sen
ate and House committees took
final steps toward a unified pro-
gram.
AS the Senate committee prom
ised to place a revised bill before
the Senate next week, the House
Foreign Affairs Committee began
open hearings on the Mercy
noldS neutrality program.
Senator Pittman Cd, Of Ne
vada, chairman of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee, said his
revised measure will be placed be-
fore the Senate next week fol-
lowing meeting of the committee
in which most of the controversial
issues were ironed out.
Some Not Satisfied
Pittman was optimistic but sew
eral prominent members of the
committee announced they are not
entirely satisfied with the bill as
it now stands.
This bloc includes Senators
Borah (R) Of Idaho, and johnson
CR0, of California, both experts on
international affairs. They object
principally to sections in the bill
which would empower the PreSi-
dent to place embargoes on ordi-
nary commerce to belligerents in
addition to arms, ammunitionS,
and implements of war.
Bill Called Surrender
Both veteran Senators contend
that this provision of the bill con-
stitutes a surrender of Americas S
right to the freedom of the seas,
and that it would place unjust re-
Strictions against the commerce CT
the United States.

viouS notice they would carry their

PLANTS TIED UP BROTHERHOOD
AS WOMEN SIT RI7ES0N HILL

DETROIT, Feb. 18 G.NSD.
Women sit-down strikers held the
industrial spotlight here today as
three of the five plants hit by
sit-down strikers yesterday halted
production of pies, cigars and air
rifles.
About 400 strikers, 200 of them
women, held possession of the
Farm Crest Bakery, and between
400 and 500 girl workers were sit
ting down in the Webster-Eisen-
lohr Cigar factory. A third Sit
down strike was in progress at the
Daisy Air Rifle Manufacturing
Company at Plymouth, but only
men workers were affected.
Two other similar strikes in De-
troit in the last 36 hours have been
settled. A sit-down of 700 work
ers in the Briggs Body Company's
Mack Avenue plant was settled
when workers were given a per
cent wage increase, and a reported
strike of between 20 and 80 girls
in the General Cigar Factory was
called off after two hours yes
terday.
