DARLING!
sY THE MAN IN THE TOWER

Believe me of all those endearments in vogue Darling proves a most persistent rogue. You hear 1t in theater and via movie screen, Darling darling, used by commoner and queen. It's hello darling! when o friend calls you up, Lovely, darling when invited out to sup. But really, darlingI when things are not so-so Just as you say darling, when deciding where to go It's darling to husband darling to wife, Darling in friendship also in strife Darling you musnt, when small son cuts up caperS, How too divine darling, when friend in Reno
 gets final papers, It's darling for this thing, darling for that, What darling dress and what darling hatI True we overwork darling every time we can But to hear 1t said properly Is by an Irish man, For he gives 1t 8 twist true Celtic twrl whether its a darling hat or darling girl. Darling Is most popular endearment, but It's misplaced sometimes when you'd like to say mutt

Nazis Seek Air Supremacy With
 Huge Planes And DirigibleS
RY MiLToN RRnNNER

NEA Service Stan Correspondent
 London, Oct. 1A.-still determined to be first in civilian aircraft as well as immensely powerful in the air in a military way, the Germans are pushing steadily ahead with their reconstructed Zeppelin Lz 130 as well as with Q giant plane, the JU 90, SO big that the Germans simply call 1t ''Der Crosse Dessauer" I-"The Big Dessauer'--because 1t is being constructed at the bunker works in Dessau. 4.
 The LZ 1S0 was very far on the road to completion when the de- struction by explosion and fire of the Hindenburg in New Jersey some time ago lea the Germans to pause. It had been disastrously proved that airships lifted by hy- drogen gas were far too danger ous. But soon the word came to Friedrichshafen to 90 full speed ahead. The reason was that the American government announced that for the first time in history 1t would permit the sale of heliurn gas to foreign countries, provided 1t was used strictly for civilian air- craft. . r.
 Aftermath of Disaster
 As Germany is the only foreign country engaged in building Dig air- ships, Germany was naturally the country which benefited. But the use of helium rather than hydrogen necessitated immediate and impor- tant changes in the LZ 130. Helium is so much heavier than hydrogen that 1t was necessary to tighten the ship when loaded by 17 tons. The framework and fittings of the ship had already been made of the light est material possible consistent with strength and safety. So the build CTS had to sacrifice the pay load the

The Maritime Commission A
 Headache For
 Ship Owners

Washington, Oct. l4--News leaks from the Maritime Commission indi- cate that Chairman Joe Kennedy, before he quits at the end of the year, will hand out a parcel of headaches for various ship operators.
 Current subsidies will be whittled or drastically cut in the case of some shipping lines, if anticipated recom- mendations based on the commis- sion's economic study of the ship ping industry are carried out.
 About 1855 ocean going ships now enjoy federal subsidies granted for six months in settlement of con- celed ocean mail contracts, but Kennedy is trying to figure out how much of the money is justi- fled from economic and military standpoints. Privately, its prom ised that the day Is over when ship operators could reach into the public till and see what they could abstract. Some shipping Of- flcials and lines which have been supported In luxury are expected to suffer.
 Current temporary subsidies will be replaced after Jan. l by long, term subsidy contracts subject to possible annual revision.

Dahl in No Great Danger

Officials here refused to be agitat- ed over the dramatic court-martial of Harold Dahl, American aviator, by the Francoites in Spain. Dahl had sailed from Mexico with a Spanish passport under a Spanish name and was shot down while dy- ing for Loyalist forces last July. He and the lovely Mrs. Dahl and the American correspondents began an effective publicity campaign at once.
 Officially the State Department
 can't do anything when an Amer
 ican serving in foreign army Is
 said to be threatened with death.
 Actually 1t usually does and an
 American consul secretly reminded
 Franco that 1t wasn't a polite
 practice to execute prisoners of
 war.
 Franco agreed. Reason for the well-publicized court martial and the death sentence promptly can- celed by Franco is not known here. probably Franco welcomed the chance to suggest to Americans that he was a pretty good fellow after all Everyone ought to be happy, sug- gests a State Department official, because newspapers had an excuse to keep printing photographs of the very beautiful Mrs. Dahl.

business in the cotton gray-goods market
Continued dull, traders looked to the
spell of hot weather to boost sales OF
cotton summer clothing and thus reduce
stocks in retail and wholesale hands.
The market situation was unchanged,
with listless trading going through and
sales of print cloths were confined
to moderate lots for fill-in purposes.
while concessions in selling prices were
made by a few mills in these transac-
mills Turning down bids that seemed too
low. Sheetings were quiet. Pajama
checks and carded broadclOths were un-
changed.
There were reports Of brisk demand
for some dress goods in the fine yarn
cotton section, but actual sales were few.
There was more activity in the finished
goods market for this type of cloth.
