The ships had been brought in from many sections of the country. Spread out in rows all over the fleld with pilots and mechanics hustling | about with preparations for the two days of manecuvers, they gave the army station here the appear- ance of an airdrome on actual war | footing. | The craft included Selfridge Field, | Mich., pursuit planes, attack ships | from Gal on, Tex., the big Lang- ley bombers, hube cabin transports and observation planes from Wash- | ington, and a number of other types. The mobilization, marking & new departure in the activity of the army air corps, was the first of six simllar demonstrations to be given by the corps throughout the country and the mimic air warfare was ex- pected to be witnessed by hundreds of citizens from the surrounding ter- | ritory in addition to aviation officers | and officials and members of the | nate and house military and naval | committees. All the tactics developed by the alr corps since thie war were to be graphically displayed in the man- euverg for the information of ground forces, including the infantry, ar. tillery, cavalry and other service day was to show an actual bomb and machine gun attack on targets representing the ground formation | of hostile troops. - This display, while serving to test the accuracy of the machine gun fire and bomb dropping from the | alr, was not planned for that pur- pose. Officers explained it was)| mapped out only to portray eclearly to the ground forces the kind of at- tack they must expect to face in any future war. War department officlals hoped that out of similar demonstrations at service. schools a guide for train- ing in all service branches, both for |action and defense, will be devel- oped.

The hearing before the investigat- ling cdmmittee proceeded today with the cross examination of Joseph A. | Lincoln of Worcester, a former vice- | president of the United L.

Acceptance |corporation with its subsidiaries be- |fore the situation was brought to {the attorney-general’s attention. Lincoln testified that some of the group felt it was ‘rather danger- ous to broach the matter to Mr. Reading,” and that some felt that “Mr. Reading would handle it from |a criminal point of view.” According to testimony it finally was declded that Lincoln should dis- cuss the matter with the attorney- general, “You went then to placate the at- torney-general?"” asked Major Thos. J. Hammond, counsel for the inves- tigating committee. “I went there to discuss the situ- ation with him,” sald Lincoln. “During the early discussions it was sald that Mr. Reading was im- pulsive and might go off the han- dale?"” “Yes." “Some of you feclt that there was grave danger that criminal proceed- ings would be taken from the attor- ney-general’s office?” “We did.” “In the small group before mat- ter was taken up with Mr. Read- ing, you talked about the danger of scandal 2" “What scandal could there be?” querled Hammond. “A great deal of money had been raised. The groups of directors were men of high standing in the com- munity, 1t was decided that it would be better to settle the matter with- out distussion.” The inquiry then turned -to a meeting on November 4 at which Reading was present. Under ques- tioning the witness said the question of how much much Louis A. Wolfe, president of L. A. W., had profited from the contingent fund, and whether he had fraudulently and criminally handled it, was discussed. “Reading entered into the gen- eral discussion there that evening?” “Yes, that's right.” “Was there any solution?" “There was a general feeling tha an audit of the parent company was necessary.” At the meeting in Reading's of- ing told Wolfe that charges had been made that he (Wolfe) had bullt up exaggerated costs and had contingent fund was beyond a rea- sonable amount, and that the pay- roll was not properly distributed. The witness quoted the attorney general as saying that the charges were grave and that the matter must be straightened out. Reading said, | according to Lincoln, that if the charges were true, Wolfe was to re- over his stock.

Today in common pleas court, Jenning, through his counsel, filed a bond for prosecu- !cution and a substituted complaint embracing in it a copy of the his- tory alleged to have been written at the suggestion of Delaney. Jennings claims that Delaney, after admiring the history, agreed to pay the writer any sum which is| bona fide authority on such subjects ! would set. Jennings claims that after a canvass among experienced writers it was decided that the serv- ices were worth $1,000 which amount he claims the fighter has! reduced to pay. i SCHOOL SURVEY TO CHECK UP ON DATA Educators May Show How Utili- to prevent children from getting wrong notions?" the letters said. Mr. Crabtree pointed out that in his experience as a teacher he had known schools to receive advertis- ing material, which sometimes was used in classea “1 know that it is possible to im- pose upon teachers and especlally upon the youthful and only par- tially prepared part of the profes- sion. I realize also the need of pro- tection for teachers and the schools by leaders in the profeasion and particularly by state superinte; dents and other school authorities,” Mr. Crabtree wrote. “Is there enough in this to make it advisable for the National Edu- cation association to take a hand in | the matter?"” “Although certain organized busi- ness has seized upon this as a way of promoting selfish ends, I won- der whether after all they have been able to get very far in their designs. The high ideals of our pro. fession would, it seems to me, en- able the teacher as a rule to dis- criminate fairly well between that which is proper and wholesome and that which is not wise to teach. x x “In all this we must remember that by far the greater number of our leading business men would not stand for this propaganda that their organized lobbies are putting out if they really understood the meaning and purpose of it.
