CINCINNATI, August 19.—One of the most Interesting and unusual features to be introduced and dis- cussed at the conventiom of: the American Bar Association, to be held here August 30 to September 2, will be the matter of recommending the enactment of constitutional law to bring about the proper solution of the demands of aeronautics. The recommendation that such action be taken comes from a spe- clal committee on the law of aviation, which, in its report to the executive committee of the assoclation, ex- presses its hope that in the enact- ment of any legislation by Congress the st careful preliminary con- sideration be given to the constitu- tional features of any proposed legis- lation, to the end that it may be de- termined whether the proper develop- ment and regulation of aeronautics does smot require a constitutional amendment conferring complete juris- diction over aeronautics upon the United States through its appropriate departments, instead of attempting to adopt devices of questionable consti- | tutionality to make existing national powers apply to this new branch of human activity. Demands of Situation Unrealized. The report further states that neither the public nor the legal pro- fersion appears to be alive to the de- mands of the situation. There is a prevalent tendency, it is asserted, to regard the problem as primarily, if not exclusively, a military problem; whereas, in fact, it is primarily a com- merclal and economic problem, with Erave incidental features which lie in the domain of jurisprudence and law and demand the aid of jurists and ers. l‘;fi’e two fundamental juristic prob- lems of aeronautics in this country ized by the committee, as wat tm‘!;hather control should be exerted by the national government and whether the power of such control should be conferred by constitutional amendment or selzed under the claim of the exercise of existing powers. Lack Uniform Laws, ~ Phe committee after thorough fin- vestigation finds and will report that the embarrassments arising from the present state of the law may be con- veniéntly contributed to the follow- ing specific difficulties in existing laws: The uncertainty as to what the law is governing; the lack of any lunl(ul'm law; the conflict of laws; the insufficiency of law; the hazard of unregulated flight; the hazard of undefined responsibility; the hazard of personnel in unlicensed or up- equipped or_inadequately equipped pilots; the hasard of deficient air worthiness of aircraft. Together these make up a bunch of uncertain- tles and a bunch of embarassments which make the proper conduct of the ibusiness of aircraft Insurance ex- tremely difficult if not impossible. ‘Would Amend Constitution.

The committee also submits a tentative cconstitutional amendment, suggested by Maj. Elsa C. Johnson of the United States Army, legal adviser to the air service, as follows: “Congress shall have power to pro- vide for regulating the use for air e T the llrlg ‘which jurisdiction, including !I:. 0. ng d countries States has three-mile limit on the seas, and provide for regulations of Jlan fields, a fixed codaof Room robes or beach robes— of these cool undergarments is the introduction of patterned effects, as shown above.

C., FRIDAY, 'AUGUST 19, 1921 REGARDS THE CHIVALRY OF MAN - HANDICAP TO WOMAN'S PROGRESS Special Dispatch to The Star. . -BALTIMORE, August 19.—“Noth- ing has held women so much in bondage as the popular masculine conception of chivalry, and today it Is one of the biggest handicaps to woman's progress.” ‘This statement was made by Mrs. Calvin N. Gabriel, vice president of the Just Government League, at a meeting this week, who declared that the dangerous and ridiculous chivalry of feudal days is still in force, despite the operation of the suffrage amendment. “The old age of chivalry was & Joke. It pald homage to the baron's lady and kicked out on the road the poor peasant woman with her humble donkey,” Mrs. Gabriel de- clared. She explained that mere man often quoted suffrage as de- stroying courtesy and chivalry, but that the old order has really been only a mocking farce, which had denied to the working woman equal rights with the working man. “Down through the ages<” Mrs. Gabriel continued, “there has been an entirely wrong conception that a woman should be humored and treated like a child. Chivalry real- ly doesn’t mean anything more to- day but an attempt to discredit a woman—to make her feel as though she has no responsibilities or duties but to be a household HOTEL MANAGER MAKES MUSCLE SHOALS OFFER Declares Proposition Identical With Henry Ford’s With Four Added Features, ATLANTA, Ga., August 19.—George R. Benton, manager of a Birming- ham hotel, who has submitted to the government a bid for the Muscle Shoals plants in Alabama, said here that he had mailed to Secretary Weeks a complete proposition for taking over the plant. He said he would be able to demonstrate to the Secretary’s satisfactian his absolute responsibility if given an opportunity to do so. As a hotel man, Mr. Ben- ton is well known in Georgia, having been manager of a prominent Savan- nah hotel several years ago, and was president of the Georgia Hotel Men's Association at that time. “My proposition to the govern- Mr. Benton said, “Is practi- identical with Henry Ford's with four added fea- cally proposition, tures, which mean a great deal to the government. Under Mr. Ford's proposition, the government will get nothing for the Muscle Shoals plant except interest on the money in- vested. Under my proposition, the government will get the same re- turn on investment plus one-half of the net profits of the operation of the plant, and this ought to figure at least $10,000,000 a year. “I am acting in this matter as the representative of large financial in- terests whose ldentity I do not care to disclose. I would like for it to be understood, however, that the inter- ests 1 represent are amply able to handle this project and are ab- solutely responsible.” VIENNA THEATER'S DEFICIT.

This age 1s gradually passing and both men and women seem to resent this fact through a mistaken idea that women will lose their imaginary elevated po- sition. Men have always enjoyed saying that women _should be placed on a pedestal. It was all a subtle form of flattery that smoothed over many hard facts and cruel realities which were not so complimentary to members of the fair sex.” Mrs. Gabriel said that men and women will never be able to work or co-operate together until they eliminate the mistaken idea of chivalry. “It should be a fifty-fitty propo- sition all the way through,” she said. “A woman should not expect or even want to have privileges that a man cannot share. If she wants to enjoy the really big things of life, she must learn to renounce the petty little vanities that formerly have constituted her whole world.” Speaking of the many differences in the privileges that are granted to men and women, Mrs. Gabriel declared that there would be far greater justice for women in the courts if the fair sex were per- mitted to serve on juries in this state.
