BOSTON, April is O.NS0.-A

Pope Plus XI against dictators

Addressing the Pope directly,
the Advocate said:

.FLuHery, But
UnGfrGid In
Air at 81

Feeling "fluttery" but otherwise
unafraid, Mrs. Irene G. Smith, "a
year-old great-grandmother, tool
her first airplane ride today.
She left Hoover Airport aboard
an Eastern Airlines plane bounc
for Atlanta. Ga. Her destination
is Blakely, small town nearby.
Strange, too, were the reporters
and photographers who wanted to
interview and photograph her, but
Mrs. Smith responded graciously.
She came to Washington last
November. she said, to visit her
son, Hubert K. Smith, manager
of the equipment department,
Washington Tobacco Company.
At that time she wanted to come
by plane, but her physician ad-
vised against it.
However, I knew I'd never
be satisfied until I'd ridden in
one" she declared, 80 finally
my son gave in"
Born in Blakely, Mrs. Smith was
z years old when the Civil War
broke out. But the Yankees were
too busy capturing Atlanta to
bother about a small place like
Blakely. The first she saw of
them was when the Carpet
baggers came to town after the
war.
Unlike most of the feminine sex
she doesn't mind telling her age.
In fact, she added 10 years
blushed when her daughterin-law
reminded her:
mo mother, you aren't "a
you're 84!"

Camp Springs Site
For Airport Opposed
Bv Col. Chanberlin
Proposed Location Too Far From Center of
City, Noted Pilots Chief Objection
BY JOSEPH T. MOONEY

COL Clarence Chamberln, transatlantic filler, added
authoritative voice the DIRECTORS the proposed Camp
Springs (Md) airport site today.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1938-04-15

reasons both from the viewpoint
of a pilot and as one with g
knowledge of the demands OF max
ing commercial air transport prof
table.
FOUR OBJECTIONS
The objections he listed as:
|. The site eight miles from
the Zero Milestone, according to
the Bureau of Air Commerce. is
too far from the city proper.
2. Commercial airlines will find
1t Improbable to operate from
there, particularly on the short
hauls" as to New York City, Nor
folk and Pittsburgh.
3. Air travellers will find it too
announcement to reach and will pre-
fer train travel, especially since
the saving of time does not war
rent the difference in expense.
4. It is out of keeping with the
modern idea in airportS, which is
to make them civic centerS as well
as air terminals.
WoULD'T BE PROFITABLE
I'm a nutshell" Chamberlin
said, Il don't think the airlineS
would find Camp Springs air
port satisfactory because you
cannot operate short-hop line
unless the terminals are as close
to the heart of the city as
possible.
las matters stand today, in
flying between New York and
the suggested Camp Springs
port, travellers would be saving
only so minutes of time, at three
times the expense of travelling
by train.
THE $3.50 it costs to go from
Washington to New York by
train compared to the $12.20 by
plane makes the average traveller
choose the former way of travel.
What's SO minutes?"
GOOD FOR EMERGENCY
Chamberlin thought the Camp
Springs site would be desirable
only as an emergency field, with
runway facilities.
If any of the interested
parties like, I'll take them around
the site in my own ship and
show them exactly what the diff
ficulties of Camp Springs are"

sheaf and placing it to his long
bow, Robin prepared to end this ar
gument, but the tall man tainted
him with the name of coward.
'Do you not see me unarmed ex-
cept for a staff?" cried his oppo-
nent. Sand yet you would use your

Robin left the bridge and cut HIM

turning he faced the tall man and

A blow from Robins staff seemed
to shiver the bones of the other, but
a quick stroke nearly cracked the
crown of Robins head. Thus they
were struggling, hand to hand,
when dextrous stroke from the
stranger tumbled Robin Hood into
the water. Pulling himself from
the river by the overhanging boughs
Of a bush, Robin gave mighty
blast on his horn. Running at top
speed came his band of Merry Men
in their liveried suits of green. See
ing their leader wet from head to
foot, they asked the reason, and
when Robin told them of the fight
they beset the stranger to give him
a ducking.
''Stop!" cried Robin Hood. IF

preparing the venison and wines.
And so it was that on summers
day in their secret haunt in Sher-
wood Forest, Robin and his Merry
Men took Little John to be one Of
their band.
Another day Robin Hood heard of
an. archery tournament which he
very much wished to win. Wearing
q disguise he entered the contest
and was soon left with only one
opponent, slender youth who shot
with grace and skill. When the last
round came, Robin stepped back to
give first place to his opponent, who
in turn gave way to Robin Hood.
Then the outlaw saw that the hands
of his opponent were trembling. So
Robin Hood stepped to the mark and
shot his arrows, making perfect
score. The youth missed the CEN
ter of the target by a small margin.
It was then. time to remove dis
glises. When the villagers saw
Robin Hood, they were astonished
for they knew that the Sheriff Of
Nottingham was searching for him.
At this very moment the Sheriff
dashed up on his horse and free
for-all fight began. The villagers
helped Robin Hood for they loved
him as a hero. In the confusion
Robin noticed the slender youth be-
side him, fighting in his, defense.
u When the fight was over, Robin
sought out the youth and inquired
twhy he had fought thus in his be-

ABOUT THE AUTHORS

The authors of the Robin Hood
stories are unknown as individu-
ais but much can be deducted
about them as a group. They
hated the rich Normans who had
taken the best of everything in
England, they hated many Of the
! churchmen who taxed the people
excessively i'm the name Of rel-
gion. Robin Hood was their
champion for he robbed the rich
and helped the poor. What King
Arthur was to the nobility, Robin
Hood was to the poor.
The deeds of Robin Hood have
come down to us in ballads which
were told and sung by the eve
ming camp fires, long before the
people could read or write.

"HOT OIL CASE
DATA PRODUCED
Cummings Turns Confiden-
tiaI Papers Over to Sen.
ate Committee.
Ry REX COLLIER,

Attorney General Cummings TODAY
sent to the Senate Public Lands Com
mittee certain confidential Department
of Justice reports on hot oil" case
in Texas in which Senator Pittman.
Democrat, of Nevada alleges two In
terror Department oil field examiners
received 'whiteWash.'
The whitewashing of the employees.
according to Senator Pittman. a mem
Der OF the committee, was done by Sec
retary 1ckes with the approval Of
Ebert K. Burlew. whose recent ap-
polntment as First Assistant Secretary
OF the Interior the committee is con-
sidering.
Data at First Denied.
The secret data. requested by Sena-
tor Plttman. were refused yesterday
by Richard H. Hill. special assistant
to the Attorney General. on the
ground the reports were not in his
custody and that. anyway. they were
not open to public inspection. Sena-
tor Pittman thereupon said he would
insist direct to Mr.. Cummings that
the records be produced, and, If neces-
sary. would resort to other steps,
to get them before the committee.
When a representative of the De-
partment Of Justice appeared with
the records this morning, Senator
Plttman was absent from the hear
ing, so Chairman Adams recessed the
meeting until 2::30 pm. and sent the
data to Senator Pittman's office for
perusal in the meantime.
Sought Missing Papers.
Senator Pittman. a caustic critic OF
Secretary Ickes and Mr.. Burlew, told
the committee yesterday he had rea-
son to believe the Department of JUS
tice reports contained certain papers
missing from the Interior Department
files on the hot oil" Investigation.
He referred particularly to an un-
signed report by Thomas G. Kelliher,
former Interior Department investi-
gator. who was sent to Texas to check
on an inquiry made by other Interior
Investigators. Kelliher will be ques-
toned by the committee tomorrow.
The Nevada Senator has asserted
that two Interior Department investi-
gators were involved in a hot oil''
violation, for which T. E. CUTLERY.
Texas oil operator. pleaded guilty in
1925. The employees were suspended,
