LAND|S' MEANING
IN TALK DISPUTED
Friends Say S. (. C. Head
Was MOI Committing
Self on Sit-DoWnS,

The tempest created by the Satur-
day night speech of James M. Lands,
chairman of the Securities and Ex-
change Commission, is based appar-
emily on a variety of interpretations
placed on the point which Lands was
making before the Eastern Law Stu
dents Conference at Catholic Univer-
sity, it was said today.
Some of those commenting on the
speech have been inclined to regard it
as some kind of administration pro-
nouncement on the current sit-doWn
strikes. Landis' friends have said a
close reading Of the speech indicates
a discussion of the history of labor
relations in this country was merely
an example used to illustrate the type
of problem which will concern the
young lawyers in their future practice
of law.
They point out that Lands did not
use the words "sit-doWn strike" but
referred to them as "of doubtful legal
justification" at the present time and
attempted to project into the future
the possible course of change in the
legal viewpoint regarding them.
Lands, it was recalled, traced a re-
latlonship between the sit-doWn-
which he termed "occupany # indus
trial premises to prevent 4ction"-
and the lockout but added that the
lockout involved no question of prop
erty rights, which furnish the chief
question in regard to the sit-doWn.
The Catholic University address was
meant to be, it was said, a discussion
of Landis' favorite public talking point
the changing social and economic
concept and the manner in which the
law and the lawyer of the future might
meet the change. In recent weeks
he has emphasized this point in talks
at Harvard University, which he joins
in the Fall as dean of its Law School,
and SWarthmore College.

AIR UNIT TPROBERS'
TASK PROLONGED
Senate Group Won't Dis
solve Until 1t Is Satisfied
With Bureau Shift.

The Special Senate Subcommittee
headed by Senator Copeland of New
York, which for nearly two years has
been investigating the Bureau OF Air
Commerce and civil aviation, will not
wind up its affairs until it is satisfied
that the reorganized Bureau of Air
Commerce is functioning properly, 1t
was learned today.
The committee is to be continued
as an organization possibly for as
long as six months, it was said. While
no further active investigation is con-
templated at the present time, it was
said, the members will act as "ob-
servers" and will be in a position to
resume Investigations or make fur
ther recommendations at any time.
Two Reports Presented
The Copeland committee has filed
two reports with the Senate. Satur-
day night it was revealed in a final
transcript of hearings and printed
briefs prepared by the committee that
committee investigators have been
charged by Assistant Secretary of
Commerce Johnson with "prejudice'
and with attempts to blame an inno-
cent man for responsibility for the
accident in which Senator Cutting of
New Mexico was killed.
The first committee report de-
manded shake-up of the Bureau
of Air Commerce. The second rec
commended the appropriation by Con-
gresS Of S14,500,0O0 for improvement
of the Federal airways system and
for research work.
In the bureau shake-up resulting
from the resignation on March l of
Director of Air Commerce Eugene
l. Vidal, two assistant directors were
removed from their posts, which were
consolidated. Congress as vet has
taken no action on the recommended
tlonS made in the second report, made
public last week
Two Divisions Proposed.
In this report the committee rec
commended reinstatement of the office
of Assistant Secretary of Commerce
for Aeronautics, which was discon-
tinued in 1888. 1t also advocated divi-
sion of the Bureau of Air Commerce
into two divisions, one dealing with
ground aids and the other with flight
operations, each under leadership OF
division chief.
Senator Copeland has expressed the
opinion that the March l reorganiza-
ton is a step in the right direction
Committee members, however, wan
to watch developments under the new
set-up before formally diSbanding the
special subcommittee, it was ex-
planned.
1t is likely that final report will
b. prepared by the committee cover
ing all developments since its report
Of last week, it was said.

His bartender picture, a fine char

his return was made instructor in the

150th anniversary of the ordination
of the Rev. Joseph Coudon, the first

of Deacon. The next day he or
dained him to the priesthood.
Joseph Coudon of near Perryville,
