He predicted that by the develop- ent of commercial aviation, the use of airplanes by the traveling public will grow more popular, particulariy when the latter are brought to realize the few dangers associated with this | ns of travel, and when air flights n be made at night time with the ame sureness and safety as they ure now in the daytime. Tells of Experiment. H Experiments in Great Britain in the development of smaller and light- er airplanes were described by the duke. Because of the cheapness of these little machines, and because of the remoteness of accidents, the gov- ernment expects to produce a large number of young pilots through this Means Speaking of the proposed polar ex- pedition by the Shenandoah, Admiral Moffett declared that the trip is in reality for the purpose of exploring that vast region stretching from Alaska to the pole and not for the purpose of muking what is termed a flight to the pole. He expects the trip to be successful and looks for much good to result. SCORES AIR INERTIA. 1 " o { “The United States, with military or elvil air polic; is expos- ing our great industrial area to bombing attacks by airplanes taking off from a hostile fleet beyond our coast defenses.” This condition of aerial unprepar- edness was emphasized last night by Representative Roy G. Fitzgerald of Ohio, leading advocate in Congress of aviation development as a most important.arm of national defense, in commenting upon the address of the Duke of Sutherland, undersecretary of state for air of Great Britain, at a dinner in the Shoreham Hotel last night. In pointing out the vulnerable con- dition of this country for any nation Wwhich secks aggression and censur- ing the Army and Navy for indecision or Inertia and Congress for fallure to act decisively, Representative Fitz- gerald =peaks with authority, for he has the confidence of those in this country best informed regarding avi- atlon from the viewpoint of national defense and of commerce, Strength of British. The Duke of Sutherland stressed the weakness of the British air forces, -but Representative Fitzgerald pointed out that “Great Britain at least has a military and civil afr} policy.” He also argued that “Great Britain® supports her aircraft in- :lu!(lr\. her military air forces and civilian aviation by approp and subsidies. RRREPEIatio “The United States has no military air policy, esentative Fitager- ald complained. “Our great industrial area is within the radius of action of gpresent-day bombing airplanes law@hed from a hostile fleet lying off our coasts. The lack of a proper military air policy leaves thin area undefended from hostile air attack. “While, in 1920, Congress passed and the President approved an act g1ving to the Army air service con- trol of all aerial operations from Jand bases, neither aircraft nor per- | sonnel nor'facilities adequate for the | defense of our coustal are; have been provided the Army air service. Apparently Congress has been be- | ‘wildered by the continued request of naval aviation for shore stations dot- ting our coasts, and because of the duplication of the mission assigned the Army, apparent in such Installa- tions, has refused to provide ade- quately for either service. Cause_of Situation. “This situation apparently is due either to the indecision or inertia of the War and Navy departments, who maintain, desplte the will of Congress, a joint policy which not only permits” but directs operations by naval aircraft from shore sta- tlons. It is apparent that' Congress must speal so plainly that our mill- tary services will no longer disregard their expressed will and when Con- gress speaks it should authorize and uppropriate’ for the Army air serv- ice personnel and money sufficient to insure the adequate vefense of our coastal areas. “It is believed that our inertia in the development of commercial aerial transportationis due not to the hesi- 1ancy or to the lack of enterprise of Ahe American people, but to the fall- ure of Congress to provide regulatory Jaws. “It may be that the aeronautical eonditions in Great Britain are un- matisfactory to the Duke of Suther- land.”-said Representative Fitzgerald. “Even 8o, Great Britain in those re spects, which are necessary for her sure defense from aerial attack, Is in a position better by far than ' these United States. Doubtless, Great Brit- ain has_ been asleep.

NEW YORK, December 22.—Pend- ing an officfal inquirv to fix responsi- bility for grounding of the Leviathan, queen of American merchant fleet, controversy raged today over causes for the mishap which lodged the giant liner in & mud bank off Staten Island for seven hours yesterday.

Love, man- aging director of the Unit:s States Lines, said that local officials of the United States Shipping Board would begin an Inquiry after the holidays. A high official of the Shipping Board announced that the matter probably would be placed before a naval board of inquiry, since the Leviathan was the largest ship in the United States naval reserve. No Damage to Hull. An examination of the ship at her pler in Hoboken where she will be laid up for the winter, revealed no damage to her hull, Capt. D. A. Maloney, marine superintendent of the United States Lines, said today. Repair work was started today on the iathan's two low-pressure re- versing turbines. ~ After the over- hauling, which months, the v Boston for dry! ng, Capt. Maloney accepted responsibility for sending instructions to Capt. Hart- ley, commanding the Leviathan, to dock the ship. At 9:46 a.m., when condl- tions were favorable at the pier, he sent the following radio message to Capt. Hartley: “‘Come to anchorage off pler 86. Will take passengers off in stream if impossi- ble to dock.” Reason for Actiom. This action was taken, he explained, because it was feared further delay would bring the ship to her pler at low tide, making it impossible to dock. Contrasting views were expressed by shipping men over the statement of Pilot Joseph Bigley that the strong ebb tide and wind carried the ship off her course. Expert pilots held that the Leviathan was caught between two di- vergent currents flowing from the Kill von Kull and the Hudson rivers, which acted as a pivot and swung the ship into the mud. The reverse turbines, they said, did not respond as quickly a8 usual Other shipping men, including a ship- ping board official, criticized the pilot for holding the ship to the west side of the channel and said that the vessel when it struck was clear of the waters of the Kill. The Leviathan's low pressure tur- bines astern, an important factor in her reversing mechanism, have been eless for a month or more, which s said to have been responsible in part for the predicament yesterday.

Beitler, secretary of the executive committes and a member of the committee on ar- rangements, said today on his returr from a committes meeting in New York. that the only reason an Ameri- can vessel way not selected was the refusal of the United States Line to provide a definite and acceptabl: ailing date for the Leviathan, th only American ship in which tb army of lawyers could be accommo dated. “Since our decision.” “we have learned what we did not know before, and what explains to us the United States Shipping Board's disinclination to deal with s in definite business manner—that that the United States Lin contracted to transport the A delegation to the convention of Associated Advertl: rid in London i In other words, the Shipping Board. who now us for not taking the Leviathan. wes keeping us in the dark as to_th possibility of sailing on that bout because they were negotiating I the advertising clubs.” Mr. Beitler added that he under stood the advertixing clubs had fused the Leviathan offer at the moment, deciding to sail on George Washington, w arran ments for indi al m ers whe might desire it g0 on the Ley athar he said ericar the Ta . g Reduced for One Day of Fast Selling LT LT T LT R Cabinet Smokers Dad or Big Brother will appre- clate receiving one of these handy smoking stands, which are beautifully finished in ma- hogany, and the price is 'way low.
