Special Dispatch to The Sta KELLY FIELD, San Antonlu June 4—The West Point of the air—the World's largest and most advanced military aviation academy—is lald out and all ready to be created at Randolph | Field, near here. Congress has come through with $8,000,000 to commence this ambi- | tious project, for which between $20,- 000,000 and $25000,000 wil! be spent | before it is completed. Something of Wiiliam Mitchell's dream of an enlarged and highly specialized corps of fiyers will then be realized. But it | is learned from the Air Corps that there s a catch in this scheme of develop- ment. The fire that Gen. Mitchell had kin- | dled under Congress in an effort to obtain separate consideration for the Air Corps—before he slid the greased| pole out of the service—is found to have burned down to a mere flicker. ‘The Senate clamped the damper on | Army fiyers’ hopes when it refused to| agree to a separate promotion list for the flying service. This means, in the | opinion of the Air Corps men, that | they will continue to be the stepchild | of the service. Problem to Fill Vacancies. Congress has decided that the corps should have 1,650 officers. They have scarcely 1,000 and claim not to be re- placing their own fatalities, due to the Army promotion situation. Where t additional 650 officers are to come fron remains the mystery, although the | school is turning out & goodly number | of fiyers. Now it is emphasized that the flycrs get kicked from a number of direction Because promotion is on a seniority basis, few flyers have anything higher | than a captain’s commission. If one | | | | | | of their colonels or majors gets killed, | this commission doesn't go to an Al Corps man, but to the officer next in line in the whole Army—probably a Coast Guard Artillery man or a Cav- alryman. $50,000 to Develop Officers. ‘When the new aviation academy 'is completed here, there will be provisiop for training approximately 200 officers each year. It costs about $50.000 to develop a flying officer. And the Alr Corps wonders what will be done to provide for these fiyers after they are | trained, since now almost none can be taken into the Army. Interest in flying is at such a pitch that 1,100 men have made application for the next school. Fewer than 400 can be accepted, and of these only 25 per cent stand up under the rigid course to graduate. (Copyright, 1928.)

WOMEN TO FIGHT FORDRY PLANKS Leaders Say They Will Name Third Candidate if Both Parties Name Wets. | By the Associuted Py A fight by organized women for the |adoption of a prohibition plank by both | parties, nomination of a dry candidate at both conventions and election of a |dry nominee ~ in November will be launched next Sunday, when the wom- en's national coimittee for law en- forcement opens its two-day pre-con- vention meeting in Kansas City. | Although there is little indication as | yet of any active organization among | Wwomen who would support modification | o oppose a prohibition _ enforcement plank, the “dry” women are preparing | an active campaign during the conven- | tions. Some of their leaders, among them Mirs. Clem Shaver, wife of the Demo- | cratic national committee chairman, | dulnre openly ‘their confidence in the | group to put through the nomi- lmllun of a third presidential candidate in the event that both conventions choose men who, in the opinion of the women, are wet in their sympathles, Demand Enforcement. Explaining the attitude of the “dry” | women’s organizations, Mrs. Ellis A. Yost, Republican_committeewoman from | West Virginia and executive secretary | | of the W, C. T. U, recently said that | | they are sking for an expression of opinion on prohibition per se, since | that is already in the Constitution,” but | for “a ringing declaration of a pro- | nounced policy of enforcement.’ | “Modification is a misnomer," she said. “Repeal would be necessary to alter prohibition. And I believe the womeft would not favor it if they real- izod it involves repeal.” “If it came to a question of repeal,” she added, “women would feel so in- | tently on it that it would probably be the one thing that would break party ines.” «No Public Meetings. The executive committee of the Na- tional Conference on Prohibition En- forcement Planks and Dry Candidates, of which Mrs. Yost is a member, will hold no public meetings in either con- vention rll% in support of its enforce- ment plank, but it will have active headquarters in both. “Never before in the history of the prohibition movement,” sald Mrs. Yost, commenting on the committee's mem- bership, “has there been such a get- ting together of practically all the na- tionally organized groups on one na- tional policy.

MONDAY, SCORES CONGRESS FOR EXTRAVAGANCE Senator ng C|tes Over $5,000,000,000 Appropri- ated at Recent Session. Pointing to appropriations of over five billion dollars, Senator King, Demo- crat of Utah, declared in a statement yesterday that the first session of the Seventleth Congress was the most ex- travagant in the history of the Republic. He stood practically alone on the Demo- cratic side of the aisle, he sald, in endeavoring to curtail appropriations, “There is no hope for the Republic,” sald in deploring what he termed a centralized form of government. “If this movement in favor of centralizing’ the Goverpment in Washington continued, in 25 years there will be no States,” he declared. Contrasted With Lincoln's Days In Lincoln’s day the contest was to save the Union, but the contest today 15 to save the States,” he added, “The Democractic party s departing from the fundamentals of demoracy so that today there is no party to defend the personal liberty and the rights of the States in local self-government.” Senators and Representatives who can get the most out of the Federal Government for their respective States | and districts are the ones regarded with | the most favor, in' King's opinion. “In 1917, he said, “all expenditure of the entire Government were only $1,000,000,000, We have appropriated for the next fiscal year over $850,000,- 000, for compensation of Federal em- ployes and the aggregate appropri- ations, directly and indirectly, wiil be over $5,000,000.000. “It is clear that appropriations next | year will be greater and greater each year following. We are building up the most powerful, fraternalistic and bu- reaucratic Government there is in the world.” Hits Flood Control Legislation. King thought the bill for the control of floods In the Mississippi Valley, in its implications, was one of the most dangerous pleces of legislation er written. He declared that the legisla- tion gives to the Federal Government | sovercign control over matters that be- long to the s themselves in the entire territory between the Rocky and Allegheny Mountains from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. Although he was not present to vote | on either the Senate bill for flood con- trol or on the conference report, King annouhced on the floor of the Senate that he was opposed to the les tion. The Utah Senator also re S passage of bills calling for large Fed- eral appropriations for the merchant marine, river barge lines, education, public health, rural roads and the of Agriculture which needed $200.000,000 for various purpose “The cost of Government during the next fiscal year, Federal, State and municipal, will be approximately $12.- 000,000,000." he sald. “That means nearly about 17 per cent of the gross earnings | of the people of e Unlted States.” BODY TAKEN FROM RIVER.
