PRESIDENTT0AD | v e LEGONPOST SEEKSf .. WARTROPHES| AIRPLANE INDUSTRY Will Discuss With Edsel Ford and Others_Plans for _ - U. S. Orders. {" BY DAVID LAWRENCE, PAUL SMITHS, N. Y., July 26— President Coolidge doed not intend to permit the importance of the aviation program to dwindle in the public eye Just because there is at the moment 10 Mitchell agitation to emphasize its President went over the new tion mnot only with the Secre- War, W as here recently, but with the Secretary of the Navy, who spent the week end at White Pine Camp. The big problem is j of the money that has bee 1zed shall be s in the for year. It's all very well for Cc to appfove the expenditure, plane factories do not spring night, and the needs of the Govern- ment for special types do not always mermit existing companies to lay aside their own plans and operations todo ex- perimental work for the Government. ing the Govern- to_commercial t will have to be with leaders of he question of ment's req production the President, & them the development of commercial aviation. For as the Government expands its aviation forces there can be encouragement given to com- mercial aviation, which in turn will redound to the Governmetit's advan- tage in furnishing additional facilities for the continuwous manufacture of planes. Although the new law specifically charges the three Assistant Secretar- dministering the be drawn up, the WILLIAM F. FRANKLIN, As adjutant of the Costello Post, American Legion, he hopes to start the ball rolling toward bringing to the District its share of war ti fes. PREDICTS GREAT EVENT | FOR WORLD AUGUST 2 British Minister Den?e—s He Forcast | End'of World July 20—Ex- pects New War. By the Associated Prees. CHESHAM, England, July 20— Preaching in the Free Church here last night, Rev. Waljer Wynn, who believes that there is an architectural allegory presented in the great Cheops Pyramid, announced that the next pyramid date for a momentous world event is August 2. Mr. Wynn uttered a scathing de- nunciation of certain English news- papers which assexted that he had predicted the end of the world on , | July 20. He told ‘the congregation of eourse, with the President himself. _President Coolidge feels that is the time for his administration ‘to show the country that it has not lost sight of the points raised when the Mitchell controversy was at its height and swhen the investigating commission headed by Dwight W. Morrow was hearing testimony from all sides. One of the principal points made in defense of the administration at that time was that the Government had been spending about all that the air- plane ‘factorles could absorb. In- creased appropriations were made by the last Congress, and the Govern ment now must convince the aircraft industry that it means business and continued interest in the butiding pro- kram op else it will not be worth while 1o cons} on other responsibillties. The aircraft industry is somewhat || in the same condition that it was dur- || ing the war, namely, not enough o ders for the commercial use of air- plahes to warrant the operation of large plants. The Government then virtually subsidized the airplane in- || dustry “and what amounts to the same thing will have to be done now by the placing of sufficient orders to || put airplane production on a sound foundation. Incidentally, of courfe, commercial aviation will benefit. If the main costs of airplane manufac- ture can be taken care of by +Go ernment orders, the public may look |!| for lower production costs for com- || mercial use than heretofore, together || with interesting ‘expefients in the | development of freight as well as passenger craft. Edsel Ford is one of the pioneers || fh_the freight-carrying business, and other captains of industry stand ready t0 go ahead with larger plans for commercial aviation once the alrplane manufacturing end is put on a firm basis by the Federal Government and assurance given of progressive de- ¢ velopment of both niew types and rea- sonable quantities, (Copyr . 1026.) BIG LOANS TO GERMANY. More Than $900,000,000 Borrowed Since Dawes Plan Adoption. -Since the Dawes plan went into effect, German industries have bor-|g rowed more than $900,000,000 from banks in America and Europe, with approximately half of the total being A floated in the United States, the Com- merce Department reported today on the basis of estimates by German financial experts. - Great Britain, Holland, Switzerland | 9 and Sweden were the other countries in which loans were placed.

Sites Here. Indications that virtually all of the German war trophies allotted to the District and ver unclaimed may be brought to Washington and installed in public places were given today by Vincent B. Costello Post, American Legion, which set about to raise the necessary funds to pay their transpor- tation here. Through its adjutant, Willlam F. Franklin, it was announced that the post contemplates the expenditure of about $200, Which, it is believed, would be the frelght bill on one car, into which a large number, if not all, of the trophies could be packed. Mr. Franklin’s plan includes the placing of two large guns in front of the Dis- trict Building, several more in the vard of the Temporary Home for Soldiers and Sailors, at 921 Pennsyl- vania avenue southeast, and the dis- tribution of other war machines at Fort du ponts. George Washington Post, No. 1, of tie legion, is the only organization in the District thus far that has taken advantage of the opportunity to ac- quire the German spoils. The entire matter of distribution is in the hands of Maj. n. Anton Stephan, com- iing the District National Guard. AMr. Franklin plans a conference with Gen. Stephan and the Commis- sioners and believes by the end of the week the matter should be settled. “Inasmuch as other citlés through- out the country have obtained these trophies, it would appear that the District cares nothing about them,” Mr. Franklin said. “In almost every community within a wide radius of “’uhlnm:n ?no can see mg.‘,()enm!.n““mt uns in the town sguares, % lg local boys did something in the war. Action on the qu of bringing the trophies to Washington was spur- red yester by the publication in The Star of a story to the effect that the material lies unclaimed, mainly for the want of some one to pay the freight bill. —————e Shanghal, China, has a broadcasting station that 18 giving programs In both Chinese and English.
