j. ). Combat Aircraft
To Be Popu|arized
By Use Of Names
Army, Navy Announce
Number Designations
Will Be Abandoned

Combat planes in the armed serv-
ices Of the United States are to be
popularized in the future by using
their picturesque names instead of
the alphabetical-numerical designa-
tions. A joint Army Navy state
ment today said the new system
may enable the general public to get
better idea of the character of
military aircraft and to identify
combat planes more easily.
The practice has long been in ef-
feet in England and the names of
"Spitfire" and Hurricane" have
become almost household words
there and in this country, the state
ment said. 1t added that the British
have also adopted certain names
for American-built aircraft and,
with few exceptions, these names
have been retained on this side
Of the water.
Since many of these names have
earned fame under the British des-
ignation, it was believed that this
practice should be maintained

haps conflicting names in the peo-
pies minds. However, certain minor
changes have been made, as in the
case of the Curtiss P-40 series,
which has been known variously as
the "Tomahawk," "Kittyhawk" and
"Warhawk," but will be designated
tn the future as the "Warhawk."
One important exception to the
rule of adopting the British name
is the Navy's carrier fighter, the
Grumman Wildcat" In the fleet
air arm of the Royal British Navy,
this plane is called the ''Martlet."
In actions against the Japanese
enemy the Wildcat has made repu-
tation of being the best carrier
based fighter in the world. To help
the American public follow this
models exploits with the fleet air
arm, as well as our own, the Royal
Navy has been requested to con-
slider adopting the name Of wild
cat" According to the War and
Navy Departments. present indica-
tions are that this request will be
approved.
In setting up the list of names, it
was announced, the manufacturers
suggested names were given first
consideration and, unless there was
good reason, these suggestions have

except his reluctance to work at

of the placard read:

refuses to accept an offer of work

is guilty of a misdemeanor."
In spite of the placard, Mr.. Simp-
son and Mr.. Noyes repeatedly said
yesterday that work fight" was
a misnomer for the law Maryland
had such a law in the World War,
they said.
Mr.. Noyes, who conducted Thurs
days prosecution of the Day youth,
said Mr.. Bussard told him Day had
worked for him irregularly, and for
no other employer in the past, and
had refused to cut corn when it was
necessary to harvest the crop.
Guilty Plea Rejected.
1t was not brought out in the
hearing that the youth lived in
tenant farmers cottage on the Bus
sard place. The boy, he said, was
perfectly willing to plead guilty, but
Judge De Lashmutt would not ac-
cept the plea. The boy proved
poor witness in his own behalf, &C
cording to Mr.. Noyes. He admitted
refusing to work for Mr. Bussard,
said prominent farmer nearby had
offered him 81 a day, and then ad-
mitted he was working for neither
one.
Mrs. Crown was the first witness
at yesterdays hearing. She said
her brother had been rejected by
the Army for bad eyesight and be-
cause "he is not so quick about
thinking" He was also kind of
absent-minded,' she said.
Next in the witness chair was Mrs.
Day, mother of IL children, four of
them soldiers.
She testified she didn't know
about Stanley's wages. The only
time she knew of his having money
was when he went to the store and

placed on the stand.
Had Stanley worked steadily on
the farm?" he was asked.
Couldn't say he had" the father
replied with a rumbling voice. HE
used to 60 off to his sisters once in

Mr.. Lebowitz's questioning of the
father began to resemble cross-ex-
animation.
"Are you trying to impeach your
own witness?" asked Mr.. Simpson.
Il am, and I will, If his honor
will allow me-" Mr.. Lebowitz an
swered.
Young Day was called to the
stand. He was reluctant and un-
