An intimation that Great Britain would withdraw its planes from the Schneider international seaplane tro phy race, scheduled for September 25, Venice, if the American request for 30-day postponement, made in order to guarantee the appearance of this s only possible entrant—Lieut A. J. Williams—was granted, was con tained in the text of a cablegram re ed today by Porter Adams, presi dent of the National Aeronautic As ation, from the Italian air min- istry, explaining In detail why the Aero Club of Ttaly did not grant the association’s petition for a delay. The cablegram at the outset de clared that the Ttalian air force would have accepted the request for a postponement, but it was necessary to obtain the consent of England, the third entrant in the event. Saturday, the Aero Club in a brief telegram said | the request could not be acceeded to | “on account England not having| given its consent.” Text of Cablegram. Today’s cablegram reads as follows: “The request of the National Aero- nautic Association that the race be postponed 30 days would have been b y by the Italian Air , to which American aviation tended exquisite courtesies last year. “We found it necessary to ask con- sent of England. England has today communicated to us that this post- ponement would be in contrast with the rules of the race, which, accord- ing to article 8, established that the late on which the race occurred should be fixed before March 1. England states that she is unable ceept the request made by the National Aeronautic Association, adding that if such a request should be accepted, she 1ps would find herself compelled to withdraw from the race. “His excellency would like to draw your attention also to the fact that the month of October, according to our experience, is not much_suitable for the race from the point of view of the metereol. 1 condit For the aforesaid reasons, ministry found itself unable to in Aero Club of Ttaly postpon “The air ministry, howe sure that the br the glorious American aviation, realiz ing the inevitable exigencies which compel us to consider immutable the date ady fixed for the race, will he able to take their place beside their Italian comrades, who are awaiti them with greatest enthusiasm and with the determination to give them durinz their stay in Italy the more tangible proofs of the friendiy relations which unite tha Italia wings with those of the great Ameri ation.

Coombs Urges Re- turn to Old Style—Asks $5 for Dealers’ Plates. Declaring that the use of letters of the alphabet as well as numerals on has been anything but a succes Wade H. Coombs, superintendent of licenses, suggested to the Commissioners in his annual report today that they re- turn to the old system of numerals only Mr. Coombs said some of the States use letters on the tags to denote the the section of the State in which the machine is registered, but he sees no need for such identil tion in the District. He argued further that the number of tags in Washington is not so large that the numbers would be- come too long to read. He told the Commissioners he believed Superin- tendent of Police Hesse and Traffic Director Harland would concur in the view “it would be to the best inter- ests of these departments and of the public to return to the former system in this regard.” Urges Title Law. The superintendent called it to the | attention of the Commissioners that no action has ever been taken on the proposed motor vehicle title law for the District that was drafted several vears ago by a committee of munici- pal officials. He said he considered such a law one of the outstanding needs of the District at this time and recommended that the proposed draft be revised to meet present conditions and submitted to Congress for enact- ment. After stating that there has been| much complaint recently concerning | ibuse of the privileges that go with dealers’ auto tags, he 1 the only eflicient remedy for this situation is| to limit the number of such tags indi- rectly by placing a higher fee on| them. He recommends, therefore, that Congress be asked to make the fee | for a dealers’ tag He contended | that since dealers in new automobiles | are not required to pay a business li- cense tax, it does not seem unjust to impose a higher fee for dealers’ tags| than is levied for ordinary tags. Many Businesses Disappear. In urging the Commissioners to take up with Congress the need for a thorough revision of the miscellaneous license laws of the city, Mr. Coombs reminded them that some classes of business which had to be licensed under the old act of 1903 have gone out of existence by statute, such as barrooms and pawn shops.

C.FIRE INSURANCE URGED Rates Too High, Says Super intendent in Report to Commissioners. Expressing the belief that Washing- entitled to a reduction of at per cent in fire insurance ites in view of the present ratio be- tween premiums and losses, Thomas M. Baldwin, superintendent of insur- ance, recommended to the Commis- sioners in his annual report today that authority he obtained from Congress to apnoint a commission to investigate fire insurance rates in the District. After veporting that for the calendar r. 1926, fire insurance premiums here totaled $2,771,390.32, as compared with losses amounting to $300,75 the superintendent said: “The National Convention of Insur- ance Commissioners some time ngo ad- vocated a b per cent underwriting profit on the fire business. If the average loss ratio on the basis of 50 per cent provides for such a profit, it ie certainly evident with even an average loss ratio as high as 33 per cent in the District that rates should be reduced at least 15 per cent.” Quotes Former Official. Mr. Baldwin's report shows that for 1926 the losses paid represented 322 per cent of the fire insurance emiums. He also submitted a tabu- D eul it t t for the last 10 tion showing tha ses to premiums was 33 7-10 per Fhe question of rerating fire ris in the District has been agitated for quite a while” the superintendent told the Commissioners, “and as enrly as 1918 former Supt. of Insur- ance Mosher called your board’s at- tention to this matter. In August, 1918, reporting to your board, he used the following lanquage: ‘My in- ion into the question of fire rates leads me to the conclusion {hat the District of Columbia is probably a more profitable field for the fire insurance companies than any State in the Union.’ “In the State of Virginia at the present time a commission is at work on the question of reduction of fire Afes in that commonwealth. Tt is srecommended to your board that bower be obtained from Congress for {he appointment of a similar commis- sion to investigate thoroughly the fire- rate situation in the District, which no doubt would be the fairest method of arriving at a decision as to whether or not the District is enjoy- inz as low fire rates as it should.” Title Insurance Matter. vesti The superintendent alse recom mended that the city heads hold a hearing soon to determine whether the real estate title insurance com- panies should be regulated under the proposed new insurance code for the | District, which failed to receive action at the last Congress, but which virtually certain to be considered again when the lawmakers reconvene.
