Grunsky of California Heads American Council for Two Years. Carl E. Grunsky of Stockton, Calif, a past president of the American Society of Civil Engineers, today was elected as president of the American Engineering | Council for the ensuing two years at its annual meeting at the Mayflower Hotel. In a statement issued after his elec- tion Mr. Grunsky made an appeal to members of the engineering profession to take a more active part as individuals in public affairs and the solution of those problems which affect civic mat- ters. “The engineer thus far has not been a good mixer with those in other walks of life,” he sald. “He has been prone to hold himself aloof and frequently forgets that he is expected to fulfill his obligation to his fellow men as a citizen as well as in his professional capacity.” Engineer Remains Silent. ‘The average engineer, Mr. Grunsky said, fs apt to remain silent while the laymen among the Rotarians, Lions or Kiwanis discuss what should be done with garbage, the water supply or the local transportation system. “The engineer,” he reminded, “should let his fellow man know, best by inti- mate social contact, that his place in the community is not restricted to plan- ning and erecting bridges, tunnels, canals and railroads, but that he is equally well equipped to pass on the economic aspects of the manifold civic problems as they arise, “It will be found out that he is par- ticularly well qualified to apply com- mon sense to their solution and in consequence he will here and there find himself pushed forward into the lead. It is thus, for example, that the useful- ness of the engineer as city manager and as a city planner is gradually find- ing recognition.” Mr. Grunsky. himself Is a notable example of the engineer who has ap- plied himself to the study and solu- tion of such civic problems for which men of that profession are especially trained. With a long experience in reclamation and river and harbor projects, he can claim familiarity with conditions beyond the borders of the United States. He has traveled exten- sively abroad in a study of these con- ditions and is now on his way around the world from Tokio, Japan, where, as a delegate from the American So- ciety of Civil Engineers, he attended the World Engineering Congress, Oppose Tariff Amendment. At its meeting today the American engineering committee adopted a reso- lution disapproving the Senate amend- ments to the tariff bill prohibiting the importation of foreign merchandise bearing an American trade mark. Such an amendment, the council held, discriminates against goods cov- ered by American patents and Ameri- can-owned trade marks, while permit- ting entry of goods bearing alien-owned trade-marks. Following a series of executive com- mittee meetings, the convention of the council opened today at the Mayflower with addresses by the incoming presi- dent, Lew W. Wallace, executive secre- tary, and Arthur W. Beresford of New | York, outgoing president. Mr. Wallace's report outlined the work of the council for the year, with vari- ous measures in Congress on which the council has taken a stand. Later in the day a report on the communica- tions bill, known as Senate resolution No. 6, introduced by Senator Couzens of Michigan, was to be presented to the council by Edwin F. Wendt of Wash- ington, chairman of the council com- mittee on communications. Mr. Wendt's committee has been studying the com- munications situation ~ for several months, with particular attention to the Couzens bill, which would consoli- date control of radio, wire and cable communications under one Government body, similar to Interstate Commerce control of the railroads. URGE UNRESTRICTED DISTRICT SUFFRAGE | Garfield Citizens Oppose Limitation Merely for Elective School Board. Unrestricted suffrage for residents of the District of Columbia, and not limi- tation for the purposes of electing a Board of Education only, was favored | in a resolution adopted by the Garfield | Citizens’ Association at a meeting held Wednesday evening at the Garfield | School. ‘The committee on education of the association reported that they will make application to have children living near the dividing line of the two public schools in the Garfield section transferred to the Garfield School.

By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, January 10.—Sclence has brought forth its latest aid to the study of musical tone in the form of the propection osiso. The device, which makes sound visi- ble and permits its photographing, was demonstrated before the conductors, musicians and singers of the Chicago Civic Opera Co. by Willlam Braid White, director of accoustic research for the American Steel & Wire Co. White demonstrated that each tone has its own peculiar color and that the color of & tone changes with amplitude.

In no dominion of political thought does the march of ideas show more dramatic aspects of change than in that concerned with the sea. So far are the maritime ideas of today from those of yesterday that the latter seem merely whimsical, amusing, fantastic; we read of them with something like delightful incredulity. Sea powers used to consider them- selves virtual owners of the oceans, or so much of the oceans as they thought worth designating as within their juris- diction. England was particularly mag- nificent in_her pretensions in_this re- spect, “It is the custom of the English,” said Charles II to Louis XIV, “to com- mand at sea” And the English King had no doubt, as he told the French Ambassador_of the day, that if he yielded to France on the sea question his subjects would abjure him. High Handed in Early Days. What was well back in the seven- teenth century, when England's mari- time audacities ‘were already well known, patterned upon the precedents of Spain, Holland and Portugal. James I, some 60 years before Charles II, had his sea- men_seizing Dutch cargoes of walruses in the Arctic waters of Greenland be- cause the Dutchmen had no license from him. The same monarch com- missioned Selden to write “Mare Clau- sum” (“The Closed Seas”) in response to Grotius' great book, “Mare Liberum” (“The Free Seas”). And Charles I, following James I (his father), and preceding Charles 1I (his son), was _another redoubtable protagonist of English sea presump- tions. In the reign of James I Eng- | land’s home islands were just about all she had in the world, but her view of her sea rights knew almost no bounds— | no bounds, in fact, except those which | she herself chose to fix, for her sea power was unapproached. At that time, you will recall, neither Massachusetts nor Virginia was settled. Astounding Instance Cited. Charlesd had his sea captains trained to an extraordinary pitch of loyalty and inflexibility in the discharge of their duties as representatives of England’s purpose to control the sea. An astound- ing instance of this is reported by Richelieu, as quoted by Admiral Mahan | in his “Discussion of the Elements of Sea Power” in his masterpiece, “The Influence of Sea Power Upon History.” Richelieu writes: “The Duke of Sully, minister of Henry IV (one of the most chivalrous princes that ever lived), having em- barked at Calais in a French ship wear- ing the French flag at the main, was | no sooner in the channel than, meet- ing an English dispatch boat which was there to receive him, the com-| mander of the latter ordered the French | ship to lower her flag. The duke, considering that his quality freed him from such an affront, boldly refused; but this refusal was followed by three SEA ROADS TO PEACE Claims of Power Gradually Changed to Favor Advancing Liberty for All | Wednesday on Senator Saxon W.

By the Associated Press. RICHMOND, Va., January 10—A| resolution of censure for Senator R. H.| Stubbs of Middlesex for his attack| of Newport News was introduced in the | Senate yesterday by Senator George W. | Layman of Craig. The resolution also| expressed_confidence of the Senate in Senator Holt. The resolution asserted that Senator Stubbs “violated the rules of order of the Senate, was called to order and on persisting in said violation was directed by the president to take his seat.” Sen- ator Stubbs also was censured for giv- ing to the press an advance copy of the “unparliamentary statement.” Senator Stubbs was excluded from the Senate Democratic caucus preced- ing the opening of the Legislature on motion of Senator Holt, exclusion re- activities in the past two years. Yesterday Senator Stubbs launched | an attack on Senator Holt on the Sen- ate floor and was asked to take his seat by the presiding officer when the Mid- dlesex Senator offered his opinion that Senator Holt was better fitted as “an advance agent for rum-runners.” The resolution was the first censure of a member of the Virginia Senate in | many years. | HEADS BUILDING BODY. cannon shot, which, piercing his ship. pierced the heart, likewise, of all good Frenchmen. Might forced him | to yield what right forbade, and for all ‘the complaints he made he could get no better reply from the English captain than this: “That just as his duty obliged him to honor the Am-| bassador’s rank, it also obliged him to exact the honor due to the flag of his master as sovereign of the| sea’ If the words of the King himself were more polite, they nevertheless had no other effect than to compel the | duke to take counsel of his prudence, | feigning to be satisfied, while his wound | was all the time smarting and in-| curable.

Ordered to Strike Flag. Nearly two centuries later (1805), British admiralty regulations were still drastic and implacable. Here is a specimen: “When any of his maj- esty’s ships shall meet with the ships | of any power within his majesty’s seas (which ‘extend to Cape Finisterre), it is expected that the said foreign ships do strike their topsail and take in| their flag, in acknowledgment of his majesty's sovereignty in those seas;| and, .. any do resist, all flag officers and commanders are to use their utmost endeavors to -compel them | thereto, and not suffer any dishonor to be done to his majesty.” Grotesque as those claims seem to us now, they were only natural then, asserted, though they were, in condi- tions of peace. Only pale vestiges of them survive anywhere in this cen- tury. Occasionally a state like Italy, in the midst of peace, speaks of a sea like the Adriatic as “our sea™ France refers to neighboring waters (outside the 3-mile limit) as “French * " Britain _talks of “British | waters,” Japan of “Japanese waters’ and America of “American waters. Nevertheless, these descriptives, under internationai law and during the prevalence of peace, are only rhetorical; the high seas, except in war, are free. Free in British Waters. " the salt water, I believe, is freest n(A:nd, in peace, within that jurisdic- tion—the British—where it was form- erly least free. Britain accords the| peaceful world, so far as her writ runs, | complete maritime freedom and equality, | even within her own ports and coastal | waters. Her port charges are the same to others as to British. Foreign ships may take part in her coastwise trade. Her broad theory is that maritime com- | merce, under whatever flag it may move, holds cllltllom:e hope :f ?J\;Dfltp;o the greatest of cotemporaneous sea- r-:xn:r peoples. No other nation is of like mind—not the Italian, not the French, not the Japanese, mnot the American. Our coastwise trade, for ex- ample, is reserved rigidly for vessels of American registry, and none other may ply between our home ports and those of our overseas territories. Of indirect restrictions upon the free- dom of the seas in peace one might say a few words. Tariffs are such restric- tions. Subsidies are such restric- lated to effect such restrictions. Not until that dim day, almost as remote, I am afraid, as the Greek calends, when fiscally unobstructed markets and the absence of all arbitrary measures af- fecting commerce call to the diversi- fled production of the earth—not until then will there be complete freedom of the seas, however profound and stable may be the world’s peace.

Meanwhile it is sufficient to take ac- count of the marvelous progress already made—that from the peak of British claims of sovereignty on the seas to the existing rule of comparative freedom in Will Rogers Says: TOLEDO, Ohio.—Just passed through Chicago.

By the Assoclated Press, TERCEIRA ISLAND, Azores, January 10.—Far out in the Atlantic Ocean, on the little Island of Terceira, which is one of the Azores group, the Portuguese | government is erecting the first inter- | national transoceanic airdrome in the ! world. | American and other airmen seeking to span the Atlantic or circumnavigate | the entire globe by air will find on this | rocky oasis on the Atlantic a highly modern air base, equipped not only with the most approved form of slipways and hangars, but with spare parts and most skilled aviation mechanics ready to lend { assistance in any direction. Terceira Island is 3,250 miles from New York and 2,500 miles from Le Bourget, the great French aviation center. Selected by Experts. This island on the Atlantic was chosen as a landing spot by Portuguese avia- tion experts because it is the most shel- tered of all the numerous islands con- stituting the Azores Archipelago and is free from high winds and other atmos- | pheric_disturbances which hinder an airman’s path. Unlike most of the other islands in the Atlantic, which are of vol- canic origin and mountainous, Terceira possesses _the unusual virtue of being flat and is covered with & smooth and luxuriant growth of grass. 1t will require from 18 months to 2 years to complete the new air station. The government has already approved the necessary credits, which are not to exceed $5,000,000. In taking this step the Portuguese government has ac- knowledged that modern aviation, even with highly skilled pilots, like Col. | Charles A. Lindbergh, and the most highly developed machines, are not altogether safe unless a series of float- ing airdromes such as those urged by noted American aviation experts and all along by Louis Bleriot, the first aviator to fly the English Channel, are established along the route of fiight across the ocean. Might Have Saved Pilots. 1t is believed by Portuguese aviation authorities that if such a landing point as the Lisbon government is now estab- lishing in the Azores existed a few years ago, many of the airmen who lost their he At- ve been lantic without a stop might h: saved.

By the Associated Press, LAKE WALES, Fla, January 10.— In a setting of tropical beauty funeral services will be held at 4 p.m. today for Edward W. Bok at the Singing Tower, which the distinguished journalist and public benefactor erected as an appre- ciation of the opportunities afforded him by this country. ‘The services will be conducted by Dr, Samuel D. McConnell of Philadelphia, an old friend of Mr. Bok. As the tribute is said over the body the 71 bells in the carillon will be sounded. The services will be in the lower room of the tower. This was Mr. Bok's private room. The body will be placed in a burial crypt in the front of the great morth door of the tower. Mr. Bok built the vault there, but only his intimates knew what it was for when it was being con= structed. Anton Brees, Belgian carilloneur, will play on the bells one of the philan- thropist’s favorite old folk songs—a mel« ody of his native land, the Netherlands. The music for the numbsr “God's Hand"” was arranged by Josef Hofmann, and the words were written by Mr. Bok himself.

What Did He Know of Zoning, Traffic Signals or Subdivisions? Says Dean of Law School and Aide. By the Assoclated Press.

In one instance that I know of in the East a prosecutor settled 90 | per cent of his cases himself in his | office, others were disposed of by the | court informally, and only three cases were actually, tried in a whole year.” Blackstone and his cotemporaries, Dean (reen pointed out, certainly could | not conceive any such thing as property | rights upon a portion of the air, such &s occur in the ownership of co-opera- tive apartments.
