By the Amociated Press. E CHICAGO, June 1—E. W. Majors, superintendent of the Chicago di- vislon of the sir mall, was relieved from duty on orders from Washington yesterday, following -a month’s in- vestigation by postal ’ -spectors. ' Assistant Supts. W. 8. Moore and Paul V. King and Field Manager Paul Dumas also were relieved from duty P‘;:arx;‘d.lfll' further In:trn‘:uonl." C. A er ~ was appointed ° temporary chief of the division in Majors’ The investigation into conditions at Checkerboard ; TMeld followed the deaths of fivd pilots in_the Chicago in the Ilast few months. rEes of inefMciency, negligence and drunkenness were made by wit- nesses during the inquiry, which was in charge of Charles H. Clarahan, a postal inspector. All of these charges were strorgly denied by the accused officials, whose conduct also was de- fended by pliots at the field. ~ Former Pllot Testifies. The chie witness before the investi- gating bozrd was C. C. Eversole, for- mail pilot, who was dis: rged from the service after he had made a parachute leap from his plane near Minneapoils last February. Ever- sole asserted this was necessary to save his lifs, but officials who in- vestigated declared his leap, which resulted in the destruction of his plane, was unnecessary. Eversole declared that the resl reason for his discharge was that he had told postal inspectors of neglect and inefficiency at mail fying fields. In addition, he asserted, that air field officials staged drinking parties hich incapacitated them for duty. Other Charges Made. In the case of J. P. Christensen, head of the Air Mail Pilots’ Asso- clation, who “was killed when his plane crashed in a fog at Cleveland. Eversole testified that attempts had been made by officials to force Chri tensen out of the service because hi$ work in organizing the pilots’ sociation and because it was kn that he was gathering proof of al- leged negligence by offcials. Pilots and mechanics at Checker- board Fleld tonight sent to Postmas- ter General Hays a protest against the suspension of the officials at the fleld. They also denied the truth of the charges that were made by Ever- sole, and stated that their lives neve; had been imperiled by inefficien on the part of the officers. —_— RADIO AND VARIABLE WING Two Elements Needed to Prevent Aviation Accidents. To the Baitor of The Star: ‘The airplane crash of Saturday il- lustratés«ties need for two lines of de- velopment, one. being the - establish- ment of a radio service as advocated by Gen. Mitchell, which, I believe, as Gen. Mitchell says, could best be done by a centralized control of aerial ac- nd the other being the adop- tion of a wing which can be varied, As is well known.to all aeronautical engineers and to miny laymen inter- ested in flying, an airplane depends for its support upon its speed relative to the aif, and the principal cause of machine when entering the storm re- that for some reason the critical low speed, depending on the kind of wing used, has been reached when too close to the ground to enable the pilot to recover. The cause of such an acci- dent as occurred on Saturd: is that the tremendous g*1st which strik: he machine when entering the storm re- tards its speed, and then in the com- parative lull which immediately fol- lows gusts of that nature ¢ ma- chine, being left without the neces- sary air speed required by its particu- lar .wing section, must turn into al dive to regain its normal speed and support. But if the machine had been equipped with a win; hich could be changed In angle and chamber to-in- crease its liftng power it would have been’ immediately able to right itself and proceed. This fact will be obvious to techni- cal'readers by a momentary consider- ation of the flight equation. If such a type of compound wing of simple construction could be adopted by ‘manufacturers it would do much to further safeguard the lives of aerial travelers. S ‘Radio distribution ol meteorological data will save many from being caught in severe storms, but the use of such a wing improvement as here- in referred to is necessary for the ad- vancement of the art of flying and to save those who will inevitably be caught in storms from time to time.
