Aviation Country Club
Seeks Potomac Md.) Site

A proposal to establish an aviation
country club near Potomac, Md,
was received today by the Mont
gomery County commissioners.
Saying landing field in that area
would be valuable in the event of
national emergency, Robert Y. Ia
bier. general manager of the Po-
tomac Aviation Country Club, asked
the board to authorize use of tract
between Potomac and Great Falls
for aviation purposes.
Several board members said they
have received protests against estab-
lishment of an air field, and voted
to hold public hearing early next
month before making any decision.
In his letter to the board Mr..
Tabler said the proposed field would
be located at least 5000 feet from
highway or public or private
buildings and that about $1,000
would be spent in preparing the
landing field, removing old build
ings and remodeling a farmhouse
into headquarters and clubhouse.
In the event of an emergency, he
wrote, runway 5000 feet long
could be constructed for military
planes.
Mr.. Tabler said a number of
Montgomery County residents were
interested in the project, including
several living in the Bethesda area
and that bus service would be pro-
vided from the proposed airfield to
| the District line.

proposed for ratification by the Leg

which, when ratified by the Legis-
latures of three-fourths of the

Constitution:
Section /. The Congress shall
have the power to provide for the
people of the District constituting
the seat of government of the
United States representation in the
Congress and among the electors
of President and Vice President no

Sees Plank as Aid.
Mr.. Summers could not be reached
late yesterday for comment on Mr..
Randolph's suggestion. Last week,
however, the Judiciary Committee
chairman said he believed the ac-
ton of the Democratic party in
placing a local suffrage plank in
| its platform had increased the
chance of congressional considera-
ton of the sbuject.
Mr. Randolph made his 15-min-
ute suffrage speech in lieu of call
ing up any of the local bills on the
House calendar because of their
highly controversial nature. 1t was

local legislation had the right Of

| House members listened atten-
lively to Mr.. Randolph. Several
of the members, in addition to Rep
resentative Rees. interrupted to ask
him questions-action which was
indicative of their interest in the
suffrage question. These included
Representatives Mundt, Republican,
of South Dakota; Leavy, Democrat,

He denounced activities of political

Beginning trip during which he
will see three rodeos, Mr. Willkie
said he expected to have a lot of
fun-but he put a ban on riding a
horse.
Mr.. and Mrs. Willkie flew from
Colorado Springs to Denver, then
boarded a special train for Cheyenne
to attend the opening day OF the
annual Frontier Day celebration.
The nominee will attend Re-
publican meeting in Cheyenne this
evening.
Mr.. WILKES schedule then called
for plane trip to Salt Lake City
and a visit to that city's rodeo
tomorrow. Later tomorrow he
planned to have a look at the Ogden
(Utah) rodeo.
The nominee went last night to a
motion picture which revived events
of the last Is years. One scene was
of Newton Baker, former War Sec
retary. "I was one of Newton Ba-
ker's boys in Ohio politics" Mr.. Will.

Mr.. Willkie said another scene o1

use of force of by the threat of
force. They are likewise opposed to
any form of intervention on the
part of one state. however powerful,
in the democratic concerns of any
other sovereign state, however
weak"
That paragraph stated the sub
stance of the American point of
view made public in the past in
connection with the policy of non-
recognition of change in the status
of Manchuria, Ethiopia, Austria,
Czecho-Slovakia, Albania and the
European nations that have lost
their sovereignty during the cur
rent war. Mr.. Welles then turned
his attention toward Havana.
'These principles constitute the
very foundation upon which the ex-
isting relationship between the 81
sovereign republics of the New
World rest" the statement con-
tinued.
THE United States will continue
to stand by these principles, because
of the conviction of the American
people that unless the doctrine in
which these principles are inherent
once again governs the relations be-
tween nations, the rule of reason,
Of justice and of LAWN other words,

Explains Chilean Stand.
When Mr.. Welles had read this
statement a correspondent asked
him about the visit of Ambassador
Cabero of Chile. Mr.. Wells replied
in words which he later agreed
could be quoted directly. He said:
THE Chilean Ambassador came
In yesterday by instruction of his
government to communicate to me
the declaration made to the govern
ment of Chile by the government of
Spain and the reply made by the
government of Chile.
II think that the constitutional.
democratic and elected government
of Chile, with which this govern
ment maintains the closest and
most friendly relations, is amply
capable of making such public
statements in regard to this Incl
dent as may be necessary"
The Chilean reply was to break
off relations with Spain The
| Spanish action in the first nlace was
prompted because the Chilean EN-
bassy in Madrid has long been har-
boring a number of Republican
Spanish refugees seeking sanctuary
from the Franco Nationalist gov
ernment.
The controversy grows out of the
Spanish civil war. The Spanish gov
ernment was angered also by recent
antiFranco demonstrations in Chile

Confer in New York
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, July 23.-A strategy
conference of three prominent Dem
ocrats, all of them anti-New Deal in
their sentiments, today caused their
close friends to predict that shortly
they might announce active support
of Wendell l.. Willkie, the Repub-
hcan presidential nominee.
The men-Alfred E. Smith, the
1928 Democratic presidential candi-
date; John j. Raskob and Jouett

story in the New York Herald Trib-
une, which said he would soon an
nounce his opposition to a third
term for President Roosevelt, did
not make himself available for COM
ment
Mr.. Baskob was asked, "Have you
decided yet on what stand you will
take in the campaign" He replied,
mot yet"
He would not comment on the
subjects discussed at last night S
conference. Some of Mr.. Raskob' S
close friend, however said they had
no doubt that he would support Mr.
Willkie.
The three Democrats have been
intimately associated in political
matters for many years, particularly
during former Gov. Smiths cam
paign for the presidency. After
ward they worked together in the
American Liberty League.

crat, of Georgia, said they had moth
ing to say at this time.
Meanwhile, Vice President Garner
rode southwark toward his Texas
home, pointedly silent about a third
term for President Roosevelt and
any plans for returning here to
serve out his own second term.
Il want to have the same rights
as my leader, first, to change my
mind, or second, to delay my de-
cisions,' the bushy-browed Texan
told reporter as he and Mrs.
Garner boarded their special rail-
road car here last night.
The Vice President made it plain
that MY Leader" was President
Roosevelt and the other references
meant the uncertainty which de-
veloped over the third term issue
prior to the Chicago convention,
where Garner sought the presl-
dental nomination in his own right.
Atmosphere of Farewell.
There was much of the atmos-
phere of a farewell to Washington
both at the Vice Presidents offices
and later at Union Station. How
ever, old friends of Cactus Jack
who came here in 1903 as a young
House member, said they expected
him to return. He is going to Texas
ostensibly to vote in the primary
election.
Representative Rayburn, Demo-
crat, of Texas. House majority lead
er and longtime friend of the Gar
ners, had tears in his eyes as he
kissed Mrs. Garner good-by.
Jokes With Bonura.
Two veterans. Senator Norris. in
dependent, of Nebraska and Glass
of Virginia stopped in Mr.. Garner's
Offices just before train time for a
chat.
Senator Glass, who at 80 is the
eldest Senator, like Mr.. Garner
openly opposed third term. Sem
ator Norris, 79, advocates Mr.. Roose-
velts reelection.
I'm going home and live to be 80
years Old the 7l-year-old Vice
President was reported to have told
the two Senate oldsters.
Another caller was Zeke Bonura,
first baseman on the Washington
baseball team and a favorite of Mr..
Garner, who has spent many after
Moons watching the Washington
Senators at Griffith Stadium.
Bonura was sold to Chicago yes
terday, and the Vice President
joshed him, you're an ex-senator
now"
Wearing his usual broad-brimmed
light gray hat and pulling at thick
cigar, the Vice President chatted
with reporters at the station.
Senator Barbour, Republican, OF
New Jersey said today President
Roosevelt's nomination for a third
term made the 1910 campaign choice
"one between totalitarianism and
democracy"
Senator Barbour, in statement
said There is no essential differ
ence between the methods used by
other dictators in their climb tc
power and those employed by Frank
lin Roosevelt in pursuit of similar
ends. I am convinced Americans
have too high regard for their
rights as individuals ever to allow
such an attempt to succeed"
