PARKER FACES BITTER FIGHT ON SENATE FLOOR Committee's Decision Will Make Little Difference to Opponents. BY NATHAN ROBERTSON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April 15.—A spectacular senate fight against confirmation of Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina to be an associate supreme court justice was promised by his opponents today regardless of the senate judiciary committee's action on the appointment. The committee decided Monday to delay its vote on Parker for a week. Meanwhile, it appeared doubtful whether administration leaders could muster enough votes to assure Parker a favorable report. His opponents were not concerned, however, over the judiciary committee's decisions. What they look forward to is the public fight on the senate floor. They plan to center public attention, through the debate on Parker, on the labor situation created by the so-called "yellow dog” contracts, which were involved in the Parker decision which has been used as a basis for the American Federation of Labor's protest against his confirmation. Although the labor issue probably will be stressed on the floor, objection to aPrker by the Association for the Advancement of Colored People is expected to cost him more votes. The independent Republican group, led by Senators Borah of Idaho and Norris of Nebraska, will fight Parker on the labor issue, but he is expected to lose many votes of regular Republicans from states with large Negro votes. CONTRACT FOR BRIDGES , TO KENTUCKY VALID U. S. Supreme Court Approves Plan for Span at Evansville. The Evansville bridge, approved by the 1925 legislature for construction by the state highway department. was one more step nearer reality today due to a decision of the United States supreme court Monday. The court held that the contract between the Indiana state highway commission and the state of Kentucky is valid. Under its provisions a $4,500,000 bridge is to be built over the Ohio at Evansville, payment to be fifty-fifty between the states, but Kentucky to be reimbursed for the outlay by toll collection. Effort still Is being made to thwart state construction. The bridge is in politics and private builders want an opportunity to collect the tolls.

Learning t.o Fly—No. 2

Keep Your Plane’s Nose on Horizon When Flying

BY LOWELL NUSSBAUM Times Aviation Editor T)ROJDLY bearing my newly ac- *- quired student pilot’s permit, I hastened to Hoosier airport today to take a ground lesson in flying. With Bob Shank, who is to be my instructor, I climbed into a plane which had dual controls, one set in each cockpit. Attached to my helmet were two rubber tubes, connected with a mouthpiece in front of Shank's seat in the forward cockpit. This formed a telephone through which Shank could talk to me while in the air. A duplicate set permitted me to talk to him. "There are several things to remember when flyjng a plane.” Shank told me. "One of the most important is to keep the plane's nose on tne horizon, except when climbing or gliding. If the nose drops below or is raised above the horizon the plane will head toward the ground or the sky. “Next, you must keep the wings level, except when banking. If you let one wing drop and the other lift, the plane will ‘yaw,' or tend to turn to one side or the other, depending upon which wing is low. tt n tt “'T"'O do all this you have what is X called the ‘joy stick.’ this long metal rod extending up from the center of the cockpit’s floor. This is the main guiding device, controlling the up and down motion and the wing level. Two rudder bars, operated with the feet, take the place of an automobile’s wheel, guid - ing the plane right and left. "Pushing the stick straight forward lowers the plane’s nose and raises its tail, causing it to fly downward. Pulling the stick back toward you, reverses the results. "By pushing the stick to .the left, you cause the left wing to drop beiow level and the right wing to be 'high. Shoving the stick to the right, the right wing is lowered. "In making a turn in the air, you will push the stick to one side and bank,’ or lower the wing on the inside of the turn. As the wing is

lowered, you will push very lightly on the left rudder bar with your foot. The rudder swings sideways, as you operate the foot rudder bars, turning the plane much as the rudder on a motor boat. ana "/Y NE thing you must learn, in operating the controls, is not to overcontrol. A student's tendency is to push the stick too far, just as a person learning to drive an automobile turns the wheel too far to one side and zigzags down the road. "Before starting a flight always see which direction the wind is blowing. Look at the wind ‘sock’ or at a smokestack. You always must take off and land against the wind, not with it. After taxiing to the end of the field toward which the wind is blowing, always look overhead for other planes.” With these and other instructions, including the starting and warming up of the motor, the lesson was over. Wednesday I am to take my first actual lesson in the air at Hoosier airport. Monday, while at Hoosier airport, I saw two students take their solo flights. They were Jesse Gaugh of the Westinghouse Electric Company, and Lorenz Lomboy, a Filipino, employed at the Marmon plant. Seeing them take their first solo hops increased my desire to get into a plane and learn to fly as they have done. RICH BOOKIE ABDUCTED Friends of Racing Man Attempt to Raise $50,000 Ransom.
