Visibility Regulations
For Landings frightened
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Civil Aeronautics Admins
tration clamped down tighter regu-
lations today regarding the degree
of visibility necessary to landings
at all airports.
AS an aftermath Of the crash of
an Eastern Airlines plane near At
lanta last week, the G. A. A. raised
the minimum ceilings at all airports
by 200 feet.
The ceiling, or amount Of clear
space between the ground and the
overcast, varies among airports.
The new regulation means that
airports formerly closed to traffic
when their ceilings reached a min
imum of 300 feet now must be closed
when the ceiling is as little as
500 feet.
Meanwhile, the Civil Aeronautics
Board announced a public hearing
to inquire into the crash would open
at Atlanta Thursday morning.
G. Grant Mason, jr, member of
the boad, will preside, and Robert
Crisp OF the boards Safety Legal
Division will sit as associate exam

Committee Urges
Expansion Of F. ). A.
To Curb Migration
Rehabilitation Program
Held Only Method of
Solving Problem
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Congress learned today that spe-
cial committee investigating inter-
state migration would recommend
an attempt be made to solve the
problem through a vast expansion
Of the Farm Security Administration
program.
Committee members have reached
the conclusion, Congress was in
formed, that only by an enlarge
ment" of F. S. AS rehabilitation
loan program can additional thou
sands of farm families be kept from
joining 100000 migrants already on
the march.
Disclosure of what the group
would recommend came in the form
of a statement filed with a House
appropriations subcommittee by
Chairman Tolan of California. 1t
was released today with introduction
of the 1912 Agriculture Department
supply bill.
Mr.. TOlan described the T, S. A.
ernment relief program short of
complete neglect, and one which
demonstrates its benefits within a
year of clients participation"
Would FOrestall Migration.
"At our hearings throughout the
country" he stated, "the commit
tee arrived at the conclusion that
only by an enlargement Of the pres
ent rehabilitation program could
these potential migrants be aided to
achieve a status which would fore
stall the migration of large num-
bers of them in the near future
away from hopeless conditions at
home in search of non-existent jobs
in agriculture elsewhere"
Mr.. Tolan estimated 200, 900 fam
lilies were "still in need" of loans
and added that the situation had
been aggravated by displacement Of
1000 families from farm areas taken
over for defense purposes.
Budget Bureau Criticized.
SIlIlClllltS ouu6cI ou Cdu 4COuS-
ton of s25,00O,000 from the current
years s125 100000 loan authori-
cation, the Californian said his COM
mittee believed at least $3.50, 1000, 900
was required for the next fiscal year.
Mr.. Tolan proposed also that the
Appropriations Committee increase
the budget estimate of 100000 900
for r. S. A. relief grants to $4,000
900 and boost a recommended
s4.4O0 900 appropriation for migra-
tory labor camps ito at least s15,-
900 1000"
He said the $4,000, 900 for migrant
camps seems totally inadequate in
view Of the needs in many parts of
the country, as widespread as Michi-
gan, Ohio, New Jersey, Virginia,
North Carolina, Florida. Texas, Ari-
zona and the Pacific Coast"

Appropriations

rnents for the remaining s162, 900 900.
The President suggested in his
budget message that he and the de-
partment have the power to use this
money at their discretion, but the
committee at the last minute elimi-
mated that provision, without COM
ment.
Parity payments, designed to raise
farm prices to level where farmers
will have the same purchasing power
they had from 1909 to 1914, have
never been included in the Presi-
dents budget until this year, but
Congress nevertheless has approprt-
ated such money for the past three
years.
The committee emphasized in its
report on the bill its contention that
continuation of the payments was
essential
The Congress is making every
provision for the national defense"
the report declared, "and it is just
as necessary and just as much an
element of national defense to pro-
vide proper safeguards to protect
the farm population Of the country
from the economic ruin which may
well come from the postwar adjust
ment as it is to provide the req
uisite arms and munitions for the
physical defense Of the Nation"
Four Suggestions Made.
At the same time, the committee
made four suggestions to the de-
partment for future consideration.
1. The report said the committee
had been Impressed" with the "evi-
dent overlapping and duplication OF
work" by department subdivisions,
which frequently results in "exces-
sive" expenditures.
2. Criticism was directed at the
practice Of "June buying"-a prac-
tice the report described as using
unspent money during the last
month of the fiscal year for SUPPLIES,
materials, alterations and re rs.
The practice was described as
"reprehensible."
8. The committee said that the
Rural Identification Administration
had furnished information regarding
personnel promotions which "was
not wholly accurate" The report
asserted that this regrettable series
of incidents" was of "such grave i'm
portance" that it should be called
to the attention. of the House.
4. The committee called on the
department to re-examine its many
research and investigation programs
because 1t appeared that some may
have exhausted their possibilities

They are cousins in arms.
All during childhood these cOus-
ins went around together. They
went to school together. They
shared the same girl friends and
wore each others shirts. When
the draft law went into effect,
they saw dim threat to their
triangular friendship, and thought
it was just as well. "After ALL"
they reasoned, "We're getting old

separate way. If we hang around
together forever, We'll never grow

In March the three journeyed up

Washington, D. c., Aug. 20. -
There's a small town in Western
Maryland with a population of $50,
whose chief bid to fame, thus far,
has been the slightly-known fact
that it is the center of fish hatch
cry for restocking Maryland
streams. But it may come into
new statewide prominence. If so
this fame will be as accidental as
it's name. For it's name is "Acci-
dent" in Garrett County, Md.
Accident, Maryland, was recently
the subject of conference in the
office of E. R. McShane, of the
Maryland Traffic Safety Council in
Annapolis. Bedevilled by danger
Gus roads, heavier traffic and un-
sympathetic critics, the safety
council has cracked down on the
speeders, reckless drivers, and has
received increased police assist
ance. Also, it has launched broad
educational plan. But the acci-
dents and fatalities still mount.
Various forms of dramatic warn
ings to the public are under con-
slant consideration And this is
where Accident comes in. The
novel educational stunt proposed is
regularly to mail to all new regis
trants of cars a brief letter under
the post mark of the town of Acct
dent. These form letters would be
dropped off at the Post Office in
Accident by the State Police and
mailed directly from there to the
new drivers.
The letters would read something
like this: "This letter comes to

one in Maryland. With your CO.
operation Accident can remain the
name of a town and not headline
name of death and injury"
There would follow list of ia
talities and injuries suffered on
the States highways.
Another proposal before the
Council is the use of a newly-in-
vented night-warning device de-
signed to slow down speeding mo-
torists at key danger points. The
device is the invention of George
e. Sykora of Minneapolis and is
an Illuminated neon sign with a
large speedometer controlled by an
electric eye. Visible 1000 feet
away, the sign flashes the motor
lists speed as his car interrupts
an electric beam at that distance.
The warning sign does not dis
close it's speedometer until the
speeding car interrupts the beam.
At that precise moment there is
flashed in large neon letters: "YOu
are going over -" and then the
rate of speed.

1t wasn't their fault, but they
