IUDGESH|P HELD POSSIBLE
As TRIO GETS BOOMING
Three of J
Suggested
For Bench

Possibility Of a Negro
being appointed to a Judge
ship in Michigan loomed
favorably last week when
three were among seven sug-
gested to succeed the late
Circuit Judge Adolph F.
Marschner.
The three are Atty. Ho-
bart Taylor. civil division
head, Prosecutors Office;
Charles w. Jones, former
Recorders Judge by APP
pointment, and Atty. Wade
II. McCreA, Jr., States
Workmen's Compensation
Commissioner.
Appointment by Gov. Williams
is not expected until several
weeks since heavy campaign
schedule prohibited the Governor
from attending meeting OF
Democratic county and district
chsirmen slated for last Thurs.
day night.
May Advance Judge
Speculation is on the possibll-
itv Of asking Gov. Williams 10
ance Recorders Judge John
Ricca TO the Circuit bench.
then name any OF the suggested
to the Recorders Court
Others suggested are Theodore
r. Bohn, Wayne County Demo-
cratic chairman; Atty. George
Bashara, Anthony Lutomski, and
County Clerk Edgar M. Brani-
gin.
BaShsra has strong backing in
the l4th District organization.
while Lutomski has that OF the

Branigin is backed chiefly by
the Circuit Court judges.
Must Consult Leaders
Before Gov. Williams makes
the appointment. he will consult
with county and district Dem

will consider recommendations OF
their executive boards.
Popular opinion appears 10

Party leaders, however. feel
that it may be after the Nov End

An ant as large as q man!
Some Of the science-fiction has done
that, with rather unsatisfying results.
1t must be admitted.
Evil is in the human heart, or
shall we say living heart, and needs
no setting forth in any easily grasped
form,
In the old days, before electricity
and horsepower were embodied in
machinery. to be lazy was not to work,
to operate, to manifest manpower,
often with the aid Of. horsepower.
He who did not work should not eat.
etc.
The man with. literary talents was
despised everywhere except iu that
refuge Of the gentle, the monastery.
In the everyday world, laziness was
the great crime.
Today. In thousands Of homes. people
are still spurred by that censure. "You
are lazy" though the need for IL may
be gone years ago.
No one should be afraid to be Just

Dr.. Hugo Eckener

The death at 86, in relative obscurity.
OF DR.. Hugo Eckener closes colorful chap
ter In aeronautical history. It is chapter
prefaced by wartime terror, replete with
peacetime adventure and achievement and
cl1maKed by succession of disasters. It is
the story OF the rise and fall, figuratively
and literally, of the Zeppelin rigid-type
airship.
Hugo Eckener, as young reporter,
wrote newspaper articles critical Of Count
Ferdinand Won zeppelin's experiments with
metal-framework dirigibles early In the
goth century. After meeting Count Won
Zeppelin, however, he became dirigible
enthusiast and joined the Zeppelin airship
organization in 1909. When World War /
broke out in 1914, the then Lieutenant
Eckener piloted a Zeppelin over London in
one OF the abortive bombing forays that
caused more fright than damage. With the
death Of the count toward the end Of the
war, Eckener took over direction Of the
Zeppelin enterprises. Envisioning the big
aircraft as intercontinental passenger and
freight carriers, DR.. Eckener after the war
built the first great transoceanic dirigible,
the Graf Zeppelin, flying it around the
world in 1929 in three weeks. Amid world
wide publicity, the Graf Zeppelin later
opened regular passenger service across the
South Atlantic. Meanwhile a sister ship,
the Hindenburg, was built. On its maiden
voyage Of the 1887 season, it exploded as it
tried to land at Lakehurst, New Jersey,
with a death toll Of 36. That was the
beginning Of the end OF the Zeppelin indus
try. Unable to obtain helium to replace the
infiammable hydrogen gas, the Graf Yep
pelin and other German airships were re-
tired-later to be cut up for metal by the
NaziS.
British and American efforts to develop
q rigid-airship industry collapsed under
similar disasters. Today there are only
few nghter-th -than-air ships in the world,
with the United States Navy still using some
OF the blimp-type tnon-rigid) airships for
antisubmarine patrol missions. Even DR..
Eckener, after the advent sof jet air
liners, admitted that there was no future
for his beloved dirigibles. His place Id avia-
tion history Is secure. however, despite the
failure Of his cherished dream Of an era Of
global airship operations.

to Washington nonstop schedule Is z
hours and is minutes.
Mr.. Modes has included in his letter
an inaccurate story about excessive on
duty time. On the specific flight to
which Mr.. Modes refers, the crew was
changed at an intermediate point so
that the on-duty time would not ex-
coed the maximum prescribed in the
contract between the company and the
union.
6. The pilots say the Civil Aeronau.
tics Board has no direct part In the
actual dispute.
Answer: Congress gave the CAB the
responsibility and authority to regulate
civil aviation, including the safety
features of civil aviation. BY law, with
out doubt, the CAB had the authority
TO authorize the transcontinental nom
stop services and the flight time
necessary to operate them. It should
be recalled that the pilots union took
this same position In it's case before
the U. S. Circuit Court In New York
City when 1t asked the court to issue
an order which would stay the effec-
tiveneSS OF the decision Of the board.
Ihe court refused to do so, saying that
the board acted within the scope of
its authority.
z. The pilots say they have made
every effort to avoid this strike.
Answer: Here Is the record:
q. The Air Line Pilots Association re-
fused to operate the transcontinental
nonstop flights, although they had
been authorized by the Civil Aeronau-
tics Board, the Federal regulatory
agency.
b. The Air Line Pilots Association
seeks by strike action that which the
Federal court refused by its decision.
G. The Air Line Pilots Association
refused the suggestion Of arbitration
made by the National Mediation Board.
d. The Air Line Pilots Association
violated the terms Of its contract with
the company in that such contract
clearly permits the operation of the
nonstop transcontinetial service.
8. Mr.. Modes states that the decision
to cease operation was made by Ameri-
can Airlines.
Answer: The union instructed its
members to strike and set an hour and
date to do SO. They refused flight
assignments. Obviously, the operation
had to cease for there cannot be an air
transport operation without pilots.
