A survey of the principal air

located within a two-mile radius
of the center of the city.
This survey, made last January
by the United States Department

Municipal Airport to be one and
one,half miles from the business
district of the city, and that the
Kansas City (MoO Municipal Air
port is only one mile from the
center of the city.
New York'S chief airport, the
Newark Metropolitan Airport, is
some 40 minutes by motor from
Pennsylvania Station and so min

One of the model airports de-
scribed in the bulletin is the Shu-

Orleans, La, which is located on
the river, six miles from the CEN

runwayS.

astic over the selection of Camp
Springs, describing it as perfect
Set-up for a splendid airport"
David L. Behncke, president of
the Air Line Pilots Association,
which last week issued an ulti-
matum that after so days no
planes will be landed at the Wash
ington Airport, in praiSing the
Camp Springs site, said:
"ThiS locality is higher than
anything else around it, and that
is a factor to be appreciated
when you realize, as all pilots
do, that blind flying and blind
landing is the next logical step
in the development Of CONNER
cial aviation.
Camp Springs is not any fur
ther from downtown Washing
ton than the airpOrts in most
other major cities, and q lot
nearer than some"
The citizens, on the other
hand, indicated they would re-
fuse to support the selection OF
Camp Springs If the airport is
to be municipal project. They
have no objection, it appeared,
to its use as a Federal airport,
but If the funds are to come
from the District budget, they
will insist on a site closer to
Washington.
Clarence A. Miller, chairman
of the aviation committee Of the
Board of Trade, said the citizens
of the District don't want to
contribute anything to an air
port so far away"
"The Commission outlined
basic principles to cover its pro-
cedure and considered for q

outlining these principles it took

China Prepares for War,

Nv JAMES r. VOTING

TOKYO, July IL UN.S).
While Japan prepared for show
down. in North China and rushed
troops to the Peiping- Tientsin
area, sensational reports arrived
from Tientsin today stating China
was abandoning all ideas of a truce
and was getting ready to fight.
Reports of further clashes be
tween Chinese and Japanese
troops near Peiping drew from the
japanese foreign office spokesman
an assertion that Japan was deter
mined on a showdown in North
China"
Japanese cables from Tientsin
declared the Chinese government
was massing forces in the battle
area but that the japanese garri
son in North China was prepared
to cope with an anticipated at
tack"
The vanguard Of the Chinese
forces already is firing on the Jap
anese garrison detachmentS, these
adviceS stated.
Units Modified
Chinese armored trains have
reached Chang Sintien, it was re-
ported, and the Marking govern
ment has modified units for &C
ton.
Generalissimo Chang Kai-Shek,
director of the Marking govern
ment, is determined to settle the
dispute by armed force, according
to Japanese newspaper reports
from the battle area.
Meanwhile, foreign observers
were wondering how swiftly Japa-
nese Manchukuo forces would
move into North China to assist
the new Japanese North China
garrison troops.
The foreign office declared:
"The situation is grave, de-
spite truce negotiations. The
orders to japanese troops can
not be cancelled. If the Nan
king governments armies
marching north enter the HO-
peh-Peiping area, the problem
will become OminOUiS. The
japanese foreign office hopes
for an amicable settlement"
The Japanese naval high COM
mand ordered the third fleet to
take positions at all Chinese ports.

this neuritis was due to the degen-
GRAFTON of nerves by alcohol itself,
but it has been found that the use
of concentrated Vitamin B Will
cure the neuritis after it occurs,
and if the alcoholic will eat a
mixed diet along with his alconol'
a diet sufficiently mixed to contain
Vitamin B, alcoholic neuritls Will
not develop.
A remarkable corollary of this
occurrence of neuritis in alcoholics,
an exactly opposite picture was re-
ported in certain island in Poly
nesia. The natives there were IN
the habit Of consuming an alcohoHc
beverage prepared from yeast.
Yeast is q good source of Vitamln
B. The League of Nations stepped
in and prohibited its use. The re-
suit was that inebriety disappeared
among the adults only to be re-
placed by outbreaks OF berl-perl
among the breast-fed infants. The
forbidden beverage had been their
naainstay against beri-beri. Faced
with this dilemma, the authorities
permitted the reintroduction Of the
toddv. and the infant death rate
fell from so to z per cent.
For the benefit Of prohibitionists,
it NAV be known that no patented
rice or white four-only whole
meal flour and brown rice-may
be purchased on this island now,
so that the infants can get tnelr

of having mama get a little OF III
