BILL ROBINSON PREPARES
TO SUE FOR FALSE REPORT
ON STORMY WEATHER"

Hollywood, April IA amp Upon
the return Of his attorney, the
noted Jerry Geisler last week. Bill
Robinson, internally famous king
of dancers" declared that he was
ready to sue over a story that APP
peared in several publications a
week ago.. The story was to +he
effect that his all-colored starring
vehicle, Fox's Stormy Weather"
would be remade to exclude him
from a romantic role opposite
Lena Horne.
Highly indignant over the artic-
lie, and which the studio also hur-
ried to contradict to the associated
Negro Press, Bill had declared that
he would enter suit for damages
up to 100000 as soon as Geisler,
who was out of town, returned.
Incidentally this attorney is the
man who forced Hollywood Legion
stadium to break it's Is year color
bar, and who more recently had
successfully defended movie star
Enrol Flynn against trumped up
rape charges.
It is not known definitely which
publication Robinson plans to sue
first but the story made its initial
| appearance in New York's P. M.
Coast readers di dnot see it until
it appeared on the front page of
the Pittsburgh Courier, March 27.
However it also appeared in the
New York Amsterdam News and
the New York Peoples Voice. TO
date it has been seemingly impos-
sible to trace down the actual au-
thor of the fallacy, but the mai
oriy of the newsfolk here declared
| that it was written in New York
as have been several other recent
false stories.

criminals or violators of military
law had risen from 3.3 per cent in

would go higher this year.
INSTRUMENTATION, acceptance of
bribes plundering, robbing, raping,

Tominaga was quoted as saying
most crimes were committed BY

Martin Gets Patent
For Cargo Plane
OF Radical Type
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, Aug. e.-The de-
signing of a radical new type of
cargo plane. which can be loaded
and unloaded as easily as a motor
van. yet has no inherent maximum
size or weight limitations, was an
nounced today by the Glenn L.
Martin. Co.
A patent for the new-type air
craft, whose features would elimi-
nate many Of the difficulties now
being encountered in handling aerial
freight, has been granted to Willem
D. Van Zelm of the Martin engi-
neering department,
A loading door under the BOOM
extended tail surfaces, with a COL
lapsible ramp which can run either
to the ground or the back platform
of a truck, built-in Winches for
dragging heavy freight aboard and
adjustable jacks which prevent any
strain on the plane are among the
planes features.
Mr.. Van Zelm assigned his patent
to the Martin concern, which said:
Although the demand for the
! three famous Martin bombers pre-
cludes the possibility of placing this
new ship in production at the pres
ent time, designs for both a twin
engined and a four r-englned version
have been already drawn up with an
eye to the coming postwar air age"
The two versions of the Van Zelm
cargo airplane already developed by
Martin engineers are low-wing
monoplanes with two and four en-
gines, respectively, and tricycle.
landing gear.
The two-engine version has a
gross weight of 10000 pounds, larger
than the PBM-3 Mariner, while the
four -engined type has a gross weight
of $4,000 pounds and a useful load
of 36,870 pounds, of which $1,000
pounds-or 1879 tons-would be
cargo.
Wing area, wing position, number
OF motors and overall size can be
varied just as in more conventional
aircraft, the Martin company said.
And one of the biggest advantages
would be, the Martin concern added,
the making of aerial freight service
economically practical to areas
where volume of business would not
be sufficiently large to warrant elab-
crate loading equipment.
