"They explain that it is guerrila'1 warfare they are called upon to cope with, but they have only Just now concentrated 150 planes In Morocco. Why the French haven't got 1000 planes there, I don't understand." FEARS CARRIERS "Could any power take our seaboard today with airplanes?" asked Dwight Morrow, chairman of the board. "I don't know that any power could do it, today," replied Gen. Patrick, "but with the development of airplane carriers we at no distant date would be in very grave danger unless we had an adequate air force. Our aircraft can operate not more than 250 miles from shore." "Then if foreign planes are not superior to ours and we can op-, erate only 250 miles from shore how could any power reach our shores with airplanes?" rejoined Mr.

Morrow. "By the use of airplane carriers," Gen. Patrick explained. The Hawaiian maneuvers demonstrated that an airplane earrier could launch its plane within 200 miles of the objective." In reply to questions by Senator Bingham, Gen. Hines said that the Hawaiian maneuvers had disclosed no increased importance of aircraft.

"The maneuvers demonstrated the great Importance of aircraft," said Gen. H-ines. "but no new tactics were developed. In fact, aircraft did not take as much of a part as I had hoped they would. I thought they would meet the fleet farther out at sea.

But they were not sent by the defending forces against the fleet. The defenders did not take advantage of the opportunity or failed to understand the situation." Gen. Hines. thought aircraft never could supplant cavalry which can reconnoiter on foggy days when planes can not and can get information from contact with persons. COL MITCHELL CUT OFF DUTY (Continued from First Page) "please say that I have nothing whatever to say." "We have nothing to say," Gen.

Hinds said today. "Please say that there is no comment from the Eighth Corps Area headquarters." Following the Shenandoah disaster Col. Mitchell, who is said to be one of the most decorated men in the Army, and who at one time during the World War commanded the entne Allied air fleets, issued a statement in which he declared the recent air disasters were due to the the "almost criminal negligence of the United States Air Service." "I expect be under arrest by i Monday," Col. Mitchell said when he made pu'ilic his charges of mis- administration of Air Service affairs. "But 'S a patriotic Amer-1 lean citizen I can no longer stand silently 1 and see this go on." Col.

Mitchell declared at that time that he would welcome any investigation of the charges. BLACK OPALS POPULAR BY CABLE EXCLUSIVE DISPATCH LONDON, Sept. 21.

The prosecutor read statements made, by Case before the grand jurir purporting to show that Mc-Namara had headed a group of ironworkers who chased workmen from the Elks' Club job. He was subjected to a gruelling cross-examination by Remy "Your job is to tangle ma up In my testimony and I can only answer questions the best I honestly can," said Case. It took attorneys for both sides and Judge Fred C.

Not content to answer questions, Roldan insisted on explaining each statement and technicalities of ionworking business. tne examination of the witness by the defense. Prosecutor Remy registered objections to "unfair tactics employed by the defense counsel.

It is not fair to put answers to questions In the mouths of witnesses," he complained. Another squabble among lawyers broke out when the defense attorneys attempted to introduce into evidence a blue print used in the Elks' clubhouse. Mr. Cox finally Introduced a blue print in the possession of the prosecution. Roldan stated there was no column In the building sub-basement.

The State was attempting to prove that McNamara knocked a jack from under a fourteen-ton boiler, letting it drop down a run-way and knocking a column out of plumb. James Deering of Harvester Company Dead EXCLUSIVE DISPATCH CHICAGO, Sept. 21. Jamea Deering, multimillionaire vice-president of the International Harvester Company, is dead. According to a cablegram received at his Chicago office today, the son of the founder of the James Deering Harvester Company, died at 4:30 a.m.

His death ends a long illness which took a serious turn while he was at his summer home at Miami, in the winter of 1 922, Mr. Deering left Chicago to make his home in New Tork in 1909. Being unmarried, he was for years a leader in social affairs both here and abroad, where he wan considered "America's best catch," He gave parties and balls which cost small fortunes, and his generosity made him famous.

According to latest figures, the Army Air Service had approximately 850 officers with ratings as airplane pilots, obeervers, alreliip pilots, airship observers, or balloon observers and In addition about fifty enlisted men have the rating of airplane pilot, Junior airplane pilot, or airship pilot. Approximately 63ft naval officers are attached to naval aviation. The figure includes 157 ground officers. Of the total of 630 officers, 422 are attached to naval aviation anhore and 208 are attached to naval aviation afloat.

Patrick stated that it Is now composed of 904 officers, 103 flying cadets and 8601 enlisted men, whereas eighteen months ago the Lassiter board had recommend- led that the force be increased to 4000 officers, 500 flying cadets and I 25a000 enlisted men. This report had gone to Secretary of War Weeks and that was the last heard of it. Later the information was elicited from Gen.

Hines that nothing had come of the recommenda- I tion because of a disagreement be-i tween the Secretaries of War and Navy regarding submission of the proposal to Congress. In contrast with the Mitchell as- i sertion that the Army nas but a handful of effective up-to-date planes. Gen. Patrick said he has 396 fit for use in an emergency. Of thse, ninety are bombardment planes, 249 observation planes.

twenty-six pursuit planes and thlr-l ty-one training planes. He stated he had r.o attack planes. In ad- dition he has forty obsolete planes and 1000 others that could not be used in war. "At no time in the last five years, said Gen. Patrick, has any country rossessed better types of planes.

The development of the planes has been ra.t.ld in all coun tries. Yhey become obsolete as fast i as built. Our policy and that of another country I have in rr.lnd 1m to build as few planes as possible till we are sure of the type we want for quantity production. Attack planes were developed at the end of the wrtr and nobody knows yet what type should be employed. At present we are relying on a faster and more maneuverable plane 1 armed with machine guns." USE FOR DTRIGIBIiES There is a sound use for dirigibles and other lighter-than-alr-craft, the general maintained.

It might be very important, he pointed out, to have dirigibles able to reinforce the Panama Canal with airplanes and flyers which I they could carry that distance I more quickly than could ships. I Five all-metal planes are under construction. From last year's appropriations .105 new planes are being procured and 190 more from this year's funds. When it came down to what is the matter with the air force the general, balancing his nose glasses on his left forefinger, studiedly put it: "The Air Service is not treated as a real member of the family. Our recommendations are frequently ignored and our motives questioned.

The. fact is that the development of the air arm has lessened the importance of every other arm of the national defense. Aircraft reaching out over sea have minimized somewhat the need of coast defense. Scouting far in advance they have made cavalry less necessary for reconnaissance. Conducting operations far beyond the range of land guns they have made less important artillery and even the infantry, the backbone of the Army.

NOT WELCOMED "So coming into being as it has the air arm has not been welcomed. The recommendations for its development must be passed upon by officers belonging to these various other arms whose importance is being minimized by the new force and they well, they don't realise the importance of the new weapon. It was a long time before I could get any recognition of the air force in the War Department. "There is too much of a tendency to consider the air force an auxiliary arm." The air service officers had to wait a long time for commissions and have been unjustly deal with in the matter of promotions all along. Recommendations to remedy this evil have been ignored for two years." Questioned on airplane accidents, Gen.

Patrick said there were a total of thiriy-eeven fatalities In the last fiscal year in twenty-eight accidents. 25 ter cent due to failure of motor, 57 per cent due to inefficiency of pilot, and 3.7 per cent to structural faults of planes. He said we have no more accidents than other nations and that the number has been reduced since he put into effect a policy of eliminating in short order men who seem unlikely to learn to fly with proficiency. Gen. Patrick said he favors opening all army aviation fields to commercial planes as commercial fields are open to army planes.

Senator Bingham inquired if other nations are using planes to transport troops and Oen. Patrick explained that the British are carrying twenty-five Infantrymen to a plane in Mesopotamia, while we have been unable to carry that mOeri. Harbord asked: "Have, the Moroccans any air force?" "Practically none," replied Gen. Patrick. "Then," pursued Gen.

Those examined will be called later for cross-examination after the experts have been able to study their statements. Commander Rosendahl was on the stand only a few minutes, his r3J judge-advocate. Besides being the first official report of the disaster to be made, it proved a thrilling account of what happened before the ship broke in two, and of the wild flight of the nose section before it could be landed.

ALIEN LAW MAY AID PROHIBITION (Continued from First Page) ja prohibition agent attached to the New Orleans administrator's office for "spending time and money" In pursuing, searching and later arresting a woman motorist when he found she carried "a pint flask perhaps a third full." As a result of the agent's action which Mr. Andrews regards as having rendered the Federal law "obnoxious and cheap," the Assistant Secretary has informed all administrators and their deputies of details of the case. This was done, he said, for the guidance of the enforcement personnel and he described the dismissal aa a disciplinary move. Disclosure of the incident was regarded as the first step by Mr, Andrews to define the work which his reorganized force will be expected to do and at the same time point out to State and local authorities, the part being left to them. Mr.

Andrews has believed ever since he took over this enforcement duty that the biggest Job the Federal corps had to per-form was annihilation of the wholesale and Importing businesses handling illicit liquor and the dismissal of the agent for arrest of a "hip-pocket violator" was accepted as meaning that he Is now prepared to more specifically divide the enforcement between his own and the State and local forces. Mr. Andrews conferred again today with Sargent and there have been indications that at prevloua similar conferences the subject of the division of authority and responsibility was dlsciwsed. In effecting the recent reorganization of the prohibition forces, Mr. Andrews has kept the Department of Justice fully advised of his plans inasmuch as It is that department's duty to prosecute case developed by the dry agents, and Mrs.

Mabel Walker Willebrandt, Assistant Attorney-General in charge of prohibition prosecution, has conferred often with the Treasury official. In working out his plan for separating into two definite Jurisdictions the jobs for the Fedoral and State officials, Mr. Andrews was said to have taken cognizance of the crowded condition of the Federal courts, whose dockets now bear thousands of cases which the Department, of Justice and Treasury officials- regard as rightly belonging to State or police courts. Advisers of the assistant secretary said today that surveys of sentiment In "a considerable number of States" had shown thst the local authorities were willing to tako over enrolment under their own laws, but it was said also that In some Ktates a feeling prevailed that the Federal govern ment had tmurped the full power una Stats authorities had grad ualiy withdrawn from tb field. Hi le to cling on as the gale'marahal had ordered dismissal of forty-two regular airplane pilots and five reserve pilots.

Such are the facts as to the size of the American air forces. Whether their numbers are sufficient is a Question open to the expression of opinion and debate. I Whether the number is adequate not. the force today Is intended only as a nucleus which can be expanded in time of need. That Is cardinal point of policy.

The same policy applies to the shrunken aircraft induatry throughout the United Mates, capable now, as shown In a previous article, of producing about $15,000,000 worth of military and naval planes annually. President Coolidge said it in his budget message to Congress last December. Here is the passage; "Arflde from the important factor of training personnel, our national defense is largely an industrial problem. Today the outstanding weakness in the Industrial situation as it affects national defense the inadeouuev of facilities to supply air service needs.
