THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1929." ARPORT MANAGERS DISCIS PROBLENS Clotheslines, Tangled Aerials and Unkept Back Yards Are Factors. By the Associated Press. CLEVELAND, Ohio, May 16.—Clothes- lines, tangled aerfals and unkempt back yards present a problem to the air transport operator, which was con- | sidered yesterday by more than 250 air- port managers, architects, engineers and city officials at the first national Air- port Convention in session here. “It has suddenly dawned upon us| that the roof has become the facade | of the house” Francis Keally of the Columbia University School of Archi- tecture said in_discussing architectural | problems effectinig modern airports and | uildings. “We may have to adopt the method ©f Andre la Notre, the architect, who laid out the grand plan of palaces and gardens for Versailles. He put colored pebbles on the ground, thus giving the ground the sky view effect of a garden. We may take colored pebbles and put them on our roofs to hide the ugliness of inherent barenness.” Keally, recognized for years for his advanced thought on the architectural problems involved in the modern sky- scraper, says that he “sees no reason why athletic fields, swimming pools, dance halls, indoor and outdoor restau- rants, a park system and boating courses ghould not be included immediately in plans for the modern airport.” | The activities of the airport will, | ‘within a relatively short time, become #0 important that entire communities will develop around them. Speakers Sound Warning. ‘The convention, sponsored by the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce, brought warnings from all of the speak- ers on today's program, to avoid the mistakes in airport construction made Wwithin the last few years, so that air- port development will rise above the chaos experienced in the perfection of the railway terminal system. F. H. Prankland, New York engineer, urged the airport executives and city officials, to build permanent airport structures now to avoid expenditure of tremendous sums for inadequate build- ings which must bg scrapped within a few years. Three hundred million dJollars was #pent in the United States alone last year for airport development, and the present year is expected to see more than $500,000,000 spent in this work. Capt. Clarence M. Knox, director of aviation for Connecticut, said that he believed a 365-day study each year was necessary and suggested that the three- day convention would point out the most serious problems of airport con- struction and management, so that the airport section of the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce might formulate a research program for the coming year. Suggests Triangular Field. Gavin Hadden, New York civil engi- neer, told the delegates that he believed a triangular fleld is the most economical shape for airport development. He said that he believed mathemati- cal studies on airport sizes would make possible vast savings through choice of ihe most economical fields. Sixty-five cities, with delegates from every State in the union, are represent- :gt at the fiunventlonbwhicl:ltls thehnhrg- assemblage ever broug! o discuss a technical pmb]em.m Airport paving, traffic facilities for airports, weather service for flyers, field lighting, radio communication and night flying problems are to be considered at tomorrow’s sessions.

Relief Came Quicker Than She Expected Says a Short Treatment of Miller’s Herb Extract Convinced Her It Was a Medicine of Great Value. “I read a great many advertise~ ments in the papers about this medi- cine; still I had my doubts about it. But a short treatment proved its value to me and convinced me that it is a medicine of great value.” Mrs. Annie Duffy. ‘The above is taken from a state- ment received a few days ago from Mrs. Annie Duffy, 1311 E st. ne, who has resided in Washington all her life. Continuing with her state- ment, she said: “For some time I had been' in-a badly run-down condi- tion. Food I ate did not agree with me. I suffered all the time with indigestion pains, and even at night when I went to bed I could not sleep or rest properly. Seems as though I could not get my breath. Then, too, I was always constipated; tried all kinds of laxatives and used about everything I could hear of without getting any results. As I said before, I used so many different medicines without getting any re- sults that 1 had my doubts about Miller’s Herb Extract; still I bought one bottle and it proved to be just the medicine for my trouble, and now after taking a short treatment I feel better in every way than I have for years. No longer consti- pated, stomach and gas pains are gone and eat everything. In short, this Herb Extract has done me more good than anything I have ever used. It is a wonderful regulator, relieves constipation and I feel as though I can safely recommend it to every one.” It is quick results every suf- ferer wants, and Herb Extract brings results over night, as thousands of statements, similar to the above, from grateful users indicate. This re- markable preparation contains herbs, Jeaves and barks that promote gas- tric juices that are necessary to reg- ulate bowel action and insure good health. Hundreds are calling daily to see the special representative di- rect from the Herb Juice Medicine Co., who has established headquar- ters at the Peoples Drug Store, 505 7th Street N.W., to learn more of this great medicine that is bringing health and happiness to so many Washington citizens. 125 Novelty Kerchiefs Were 25¢ 15¢ Linens and Swisses with net trimmings or embroidered cor- ners.
