NEW YORK HARBOR MARK FOR BOMBING Long Distance Air Raid Planned Today by Army Wright Field, Dayton, 0., May 21 (M—Governor's Island off New York city was the mark today of the in- itial experiment of armed forces with long-distance bombing cruisers. A regulation United States bomber with 2,000 pounds of explosives was fitted for the no-stop air “raid” to be accomplished by two refueling contacts over Washington. The scheduled departure this afternoon, with favorable weather, was the first attémpt to send one of the heavy ships on a long flight while loaded to capacity. The dis- tance, about 1,300 miles, is more than double the cruising range of bombers. The invasion will take the plane over Washington late this afternoon. There refueling plane No. 1, used in the Question Mark flights in Califor- nia, will refill the tanks in the -air. Proceeding to New York at about 830 p. m., the plane will follow Rroadway to Governor's Island, drop three flares and turn back to- ward Washington, dropping one flare at Atlantic City on the way. At Washington the refueling op- eration will be repeated, and the plane will return to Wright Field.

Representative Ruth Baker Pratt of New York, who made her second speech on the flor of the house yes- terday in opposition to the proposed increase in the tariff on sugar, later declined to - state her position for quotation among the group of wo- men congresswomen. “Whatever I have to say on any problem,” she explained, “must be judged on its merit, as coming simp- ly from a representative—and not on the floor of the house that hides also be ¢aken frem the free list. This has been opposed, and was again opposed yesterday by another member of the Massachusetts dele- gation, but Mrs. Rogers stood firm- ly for it and said 'she weuld con- tinue to urge it to others of her atate delegation. % Early in the tariff revision discus- sions, she made a step toward grasp- ing the attiutude of the house as a whole by writing to each member separately and asking for his opinion on manufacturing schedules. Re- sponses were many and in’ some cases lengthy, ahe said, from demo- crats as well as republicans. She Las held extended conferences with manufacturers also. Having sponsored supplemental appropriations obtained for trade commissioners while President Hoover was secretary of commerce. She plana to seek a similar fund, at the regular aession of congress. Ex- tension of the trade commissioners’ work, she believes, is essential to de- velopment of commerce. Representative Florence P. Kahn, of California, counts the present pro- posed duty on cement at least partly from a woman representative.” 8he added that she desired that her record stand in comparison with that of the full membership of the house, rather than with that of other feminine legislators. Other congresswomen, while they have not definitely asserted their in- clinations, have attacked their prob- lems appafently from the same standpoint. Their activitiea have ranged from speeches on the floor to extended appearance before com- mittees and conferences with the president. Representative Ruth Bryan Owen, who has directed her movemcnts energetically in the interest of farm- ers of her own Florida district, tal- lied another score by going to Presi- dent Hoover, with Representative Swing of California, to ask that if any change is made in the reciprocal treaty with Cuba, protection be in- sured for Avacado pear growers whose competition, she said, comes principally from Cuba. Already she had scored in connec- tion ,with the special appropriation for control of the Mediterranean fruit fly.. . A .menace to agricwture in her state, and an increase in the allowance per acre to farmers for seeds. Would Reduce Free List In another field formerly held by men—that of commerce and manu- facturing — Representative Edith Nourse Rogers of Massachusetts, has, been prominent. She has lnpundl repeatedly before the ways and means committee, vigorously urging her victory. 8he has been working for it for more than a year. S8he also has appeared repeatedly before the ways and means committe¢ in discussions of many schedules. Her district being affected through the shipping interests by virtually every section of the tariff bill. Judge “High Bonds” Lyle Back on Criminal Bench Chicago, May 21.—(M—Judge John H. Lyle, who won the sobri- quet “High Bonds" Lyle four yeara ago because of the high bail in which he held persons arraigned be- fore him, has signalized his return to the criminal bench by fixing s total of $220,000 bail for three robbery suspects.

Lenroot of Wisconsin to be a cus- toms judge was obtained for pub- lication today by the United Press. ‘The roll call was doubly significant |because of the fight now being led by Senators Jones, of Washington, assistant republican leader, Senator Robinson of Arkansas, democratic floor -leader, and others for aboli- tion of the 150 year old rule by while the senate confirms nominees in executive session, The vote shows 9 democrats bolted party ranks and voted with 33 republicans to confirm President Hoover's sclection, while 11 western republicans and 16 democrats voted against him. Lenroot's nomination was opposed because-of his employment as coun- sel for the public utilities interests in their recent successful efforts to prevent a senatorial investigation. He was a senator before this em- ployment, but the senate declined to grant him the usual courtesy of im- mediate confirmation in open ses- sion. Jones and Robinsen introduced amendments to abolish the old rule following exclusive publication by the United Press last January of the vote by which the senate confirmed Roy O. West of lllinois to be secre- tary of interior. It the first published secret roll call.
