Jailed Forger Sought
On Murder Charoe
North CuroIinu Asked
To Release Convict
BY the Associated Press.

PORTSMOUTH, Va, May l.
North Carolina authorities today
will be asked for release of Cecil
Bennie Ward, 26, now serving a
term for forgery in Central Prison,
Raleigh, to answer a charge of muir
der in connection with the death
here of James Floyd Layman, 81,
whose body was discovered at 6 pm.
yesterday in Western Branch dis
trict, Norfolk County.
Ward was charged formally with
the murder of Mr.. Layman after the
body was found lying in a small
clearing of a marsh in a remote sec
ton of the district.
Finding of the body climaxed a
search that had been in progress
since last Tuesday, when county po-
lice were asked by Mrs. Doris Lay
man, %. widow OF the carpenter,
who has been missing from his home
since March 13, to investigate the
disappearance of her husband.
Commonwealth Attorney A. o.
Lynch said today he would COM
municate with Attorney General
Harry Macmillan of North Caro-
lima, asking for the release of Ward
and. If permission was granted,
would forward extradition papers to
Gov. Broughton of North Carolina
The charge was placed against
Ward after Commonwealth Attor-
ney Lynch had conferred with Dep
uty Sheriff Frank Wilson and
County Officers Paul Grimes and j.
j. Kelly, who carried out the search
and discovered the body.

not QeDaCe over lle 1OurJn-
term issue before the American
Town Meeting of the Air Forum.
Gov. Nicely of West Virginia,
Democrat, and Max Lerner, a
New Deal professor at Williams
College, took the Affirmative and
Senators Bridges of New Hamp-
shire and Wherry Of Nebraska
the negative.
The bitterness of debate in
Pittsburgh and the no less bitter
remarks of Senator Guffey in
Philadelphia forecast a hard
fought political campaign next
year. If the Democratic speak
ers are to be believed, there is
not the slightest doubt that the
President will run again. To all
intents and purposes, SO far as
the New Dealers are concerned,
the Democratic presidential NOM
ination has been settled for 1914.
The holding of a Democratic
National Convention, if they are
correct, will be no more than a
ratification meeting. And with
campaign to re-elect Mr.. Roose-
welt already under way, it mat
ters little whether the Democrats
nominate their candidate in July,
August or September.
Time Important to COP.
BY the same token, it matters
a good deal to the Republicans
when they nominate their cam
didate. If they are to contest
the election with the President,
they must have a man-and they
must have time, and give him
time, to stage an effective cam
paign. That is one reason they
would be slow to agree to a late
national convention to pick the
nominees and a brief campaign
period. 1t all goes back to the
old political principle that you
can't beat some one with no one.
Not until the Republicans have
named their candidate can they
wage real fight.
Eighteen months-a year and
a half-must elapse before the
people vote for President. Rare
ly, If ever, has any national
campaign developed so bitterly so
long in advance of an election.
The Republicans already are
seeking to raise the dictator"
issue, on the theory that a fourth
term would so intrench the
President he would be able to do
anything he wished, whether the
war was on or had ended. The
Democrats counter with the cry
that President Roosevelt is the
only man who can handle the
war-that it would be folly to
make change in leadership in
the midst of the conflict.
Aside from this distinct cleav-
age, domestic issues are sure to

BY COLIN BEDNALL,

Aviation Expert, London Daily Mail.
LONDON, May Air transport
is not something which belongs
solely to peace. 1t was the instru-
ment by which the Germans out
paced our armed forces for three
years. 1t was air transport which
carried the German army into Nor
way, and more recently into Tunisia,
before we could reach those places
ourselves
The German armies have raced
ahead with the $50 m.p.h. mobility
of air transport, while we have fol-
lowed with the eight-knot crawl OF
sea transport.
At the outbreak of war, Deutsche
Lutfthansa. government owned
but virtually autonomous CONNER
cial air service, had feet of 5000
transport planes ready to place at
the disposal of the German high
command A few coats of paint Is
about the only difference between
commercial air-liner and mill
tary air transport.
The Junkers 50 three-engine cargo
ship, with a fixed under carriage
and its design already years old,
therefore took its place In the Ger
man air offensive alongside the ME-
100 fighter and the Stuka dive
bomber.
Might Have Been Different.
Is it rash to suggest that the fate
of Narvik, Crete or Singapore might
have been different If the British
Army had been similarly served?
Would the armies assembled weeks
previously in various parts of the
empire still have arrived in Malaga
in time only to be made prisoners?
1 would like to repeat simile
which have used before: The Raj
moving to the offensive in North
Africa without the support of q
supply system which could keep pace
with its operational aircraft has
been in the same position as man
who travels by air and leaves his
luggage to follow by sea. He has
only one suit Of clothes to wear until
the luggage catches up with him.
As for the second point-that Of
the prejudice against air travel
there Is one supreme fact which so
far has failed to sink into the minds
not only of governments but also Of
many great private enterprises con-
trolling British transport systems in
the past. It is this:

| introduction Of air transport. be-

training for living" Yet the very
sources of human life and it's re-
production have been tabooed sub
jects here. A few courageous prin-
cipals and teachers have done not
able workout largely without Of
ficial support or approval. Garden
and pet projects in our elementary
schools are decidedly valuable-but
why, on the higher levels, must
biology stop with the frog, when
human life is 50 much more vital
and interesting?
And on the health sector of social
hygiene, few simple paragraphs
devoted to the scientific facts of
syphilis and gonorrhea surely should
be incorporated in health and
physical education units. Other
health hazards are dealt with, but
these two-the great menaces of
youth-are left untouched. Had our
schools given youth the protection
OF knowledge, Washington might
not have been in the unenviable
situation Of seeing her selectees
leading the Nations large cities in
syphilis prevalence, and her juve-
nile sex delinquency and illegiti-
macy rates rising ominously.
In conclusion 1t Is well to re-
emphasize the point that the home
is the logical place for most hygiene
training. For social hygiene, In es-
sence. Is only . part Of character
training. and schools and churches
even though Of the finest cannot
do the whole job. But, until par
ents are better qualified for this
opportunity than ct present, our
schools have . real mission on their

Aerial armadas. flying in the face
of lethal opposition, have travelled
from Britain across the Alps ITO

but several times, without the loss
of a single plane.
Thousands of airplanes have been

amounting to less than / per cent
Of the total.
But II you wish to find examples
OF the proved reliability and eff
