GOODWIN Optometrist 327 Main St. Tel, 1905 Open Evenings —————— liam A. Moffet, chief of the bureau of aerial navigation of the United States navy. Safe Airplanes Soon. The admiral predicted that within the next year safe, dependable air- planes would be crossing the Atlantic on regular passenger and freight schedulés and that the aircraft indus- try within a comparatively short time. He predicted this city would become the center of the aeronautical field. Its Part in War. Discussing the part that aircraft will play in any future war the ad- miral sai “Aircraft was the only arm of de- fense that the recent disarmament conference failed to restrict and in the next war destruction or victory will be a matter of but a few hours. Great fleets of airplanes will drop 4,000, pound bombs. Fleets of these air monsters will descend upon cities in the next war, carrying greater loads for greater distances than was the case during the world war. “The airplane is not to be developed merely as an engine of destruction, however,” the naval officer declared. “The commercial usefulness of the airplane cannot be over emphasized. The war airships, great carriers with a speed of from 35 to 40 knots an hour, will be able to launch smaller planes from their decks by means of a catapult that will cast the small ships into the air at the rate of 50 miles an hour. The same catapult well may be used for commercial purposes. A fast trans-Atlantic air- ship could cast from its decks an air- plane loaded with mail within a dis- tance of a European port that the smaller machine could make in safety, thus saving a full day in mail opera- tion.” DRAY ON YALE COMMITTEE New Haven, May 12.—Walter R.

NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, MAY 1%, 192% HAYES POLICY WITH MEXICO PERTINEN: Only Time Since Civil War U. §. Forced to Consider Recognition Towa City, Ia.,, May 12.—A compar- slon of the Hayes policy relative to the recognition of Porfirlo Diaz with that recently adopted by the United States relative to the recognition of Obregon *“is pertinent and interest- ing,"” Prof, Charles W. Hackett, of the University of Texas, Austin, Tex., told the Mississippl Valley Historical asso- clation at its meeting here today. The Hays policy, he pointed out, was for- mulated on the only occasion hetween the close of the American Clivil War and 1911 when the United States had to consider the recognition of a Mexi- can government, Classic in Diplomacy. The announcement by the State Des partment in 1877 of its Mexican pol- ey “for falrness and lucidity may bhe considered a classic among American diplomatic papers,”” Prof. Hackett sald. “Mexico was assured at this time that the United States was in no wise interested in passing upon the legal- ity or illegality of the Diaz or any other government fn Mexico, but was content to know that such govern- ment was stable and in reality the de facto government of the country. “However, the United States did concern itself with the rights of its citizens and the protection of its ter- ritory and insisted upon some guar- antee for the preservation of péace and the protection of life and prop- erty along the border as precedent to recognition. Diaz insisted pleasing grounds of self-respect, that any con- dition precedent, to recognition should not be made. On April 11, 1878, the Hayes administration receded from its original position in demanding a treaty as precedent to recognition and through Ambassador Foster formally recognized Diaz as the de facto and constitutional president of Mexico. “From that date until the assump- tion of executive authority by Madero in 1911, as a result of a revolution, the succession of Mexico was peace- ful and constitutional. The policy adopted by the Hayes ndminifitra(innr may, therefore ,be taken as the policy of the United States with regard to the recognition of Mexican govern- bents between the years 1878 and 1911.” TO MAKE TRANSFER ‘Washington, May 12.—Transfer of the prohibition unit from the treasury to the department of justice as a part of the general scheme of government- al reorganization was declared today to have received the approval of Sec-| retary Mellon and Attorney Gen.| Daugherty. ; Men’s and Young Men’s .
