STANDARD AIR MARKINGS ARE CHOSENBY U. S. Cittes to Use Black on Yellow Background to Guide Fliers. B,y Times Special WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.—A set of standard identification markings for cities of the United States, by which fliers can recognize them quickly, is nearly completed at Washington. The work of devising it was started last May and has been conducted almost daily and nightly ever since, most of it on the roof of the tall Department of Commerce building, in which is located the aeronautics branch. Assistant Secretary William P. MacCracken Jr. caused the creation of a committee representing his department, the army and navy to supervise the endeavor. Army and navy fliers were instructed to make reports on the visibility of the designs displayed on the commerce roof far below. Make Tests at Night Members of the committee have flown at night to ascertain the effect of lights upon the various colors experimented with, and 4 to learn how the markings showed up at different altitudes and from oblique distances as far off as the Capitol, which is about two miles away. Various tests have established that lettering and markings in chrome yellow on a black background are more readily distinguished from the air than any other tested color combination. This was a surprise to those of the experimenters who had a preconceived idea that black letters and marks set off against a yeUow background would be most clearly seen. Three Designs Chosen Three designs have been selected tentatively. One is an illuminated arrow pointing the way to airports; one is a style of lettering for the name of the town, and one is a bifllseye to be placed near the name of the town to signify to aviators that this truly is the town name. Aviators had been finding difficulty, when they came to towns, to differentiate between the name designating the municipality and the signs that were merely advertising. With the standard markings in yellow and the bullseye as the official stamp of the United States on the name, such confusion will be eliminated and flying facilitated. The designs are being constructed so that they can be flooded with light at night. COST~S2S~TO KILL DOG Revenge Death Over Slaying of Cat Proves Expensive.

Borrelli, of 526 St. James street, New Orleans, La., has given the following account of her use of Cardui: "About a year and half ago I had a very serious illness. My nerves were ‘all torn to pieces,’ and I was so weak I could not walk without help. “I did not seem to gain my strength and I was so discouraged, I fretted all the time. "My mother suggested that I take some Cardui, which I at last consented to do, having little faith because I had tried other things and had gotten no relief. "After having taken about the second bottle I felt better. I had more strength. My mother kept insisting and I kept on taking Cardui By the time I had taken five bottles, you would not have known that I had been sick. I felt just fine. Nervousness was gone and my strength had come back, I have been well and strong ever since.” Thousands of other women have been helped by Cardui after long suffering from weakness and nervousness.

MOVE TO SHIFT DRY RULE FROM TREASURY HIT Opposition Develops to Hoover’s Scheme of Enforcement. BY RAY TUCKER Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.—N0 radical changes in prohibition enforcement methods or organization have been planned for the 1929 fiscal year, which will include most of Herbert Hoover’s first twelve months in the White House. Any changes contemplated can not be' inaugurated until 1930, because most of the shifts discussed would require consent of the congress which will meet in December, 1929. In appearing before the treasury appropriations committee, Seymour W. Lowkman, dry czar, and Commissioner J. M. Doran presented only the usual requests for funds, or approximately $11,500,000. They also reported improved conditions in almost every field of enforcement activity. While men regarded as Hoover’s spokesmen declined to comment on the proposal to transfer the prohibition bureau from the treasury to the justice department, a great deal of opposition to the suggestion is developing among members of congress. They seem to be satisfied with present conditions, even though the Anti-Saloon League""is said to favor the idea. It is said to be one of the riumerous bureau reorganizations under consideration by the Presi-dent-elect. Some members of the appropriations committee insist that the move would handicap enforcement. They point out that at present the dry unit is receiving close co-oper-ation from such treasury groups as
