Millions Will Witness Giant Fleet’s Three-Day Aerial Meet Over Seaboard. BY RODNEY DUTCHER NEA Service Writer WASHINGTON, April 13.—Late in May the air will be full of a great roaring and the sky so thick with military aircraft that America will have some idea of what a next war would be like with hundreds of planes dashing to defend the north Atlantic seaboard. Six hundreds and seventy-two ships of the Army-Air Corps —pursuit planes, bombers, attack planes, transports and observation planes—wil converge from over the country in an unprecedentedly huge concentration for annual maneuvers in the area from Maine to Virginia and as far west as Chicago. About 75,000,000 persons will have a chance to see army planes en route, the war department estimates. The ships will fly a total of about 2,000,000 miles; the territories of every state will be crossed by one or more units. About eighty airports will be visited for an overnight stop or fuel as the planes fly toward the first concentration point at Dayton, O. Plan “Mock” Attacks There will be demonstrations or meek attacks at Chicago, Boston, Washington, Philadelphia and other points, but the big show is billed for New York on May 23, culminating in a procession of the entire armada over the length of Manhattan. Flying in tight formation at about 100 miles an hour, the head of this great division will be over Governor’s island while the rear Is still over the Bronx. The air procession Will require about twenty minutes to pass a given point. The New York phase of the maneuvers will be broadcast to the country by the two big national radio chains. First Unit at Dayton After many months of careful preparation for the mass aerial movement, the first member planes of the division will arrive at Wright field, Dayton,"bn May 15. These will oe the national guard squadrons, to form two groups—or one wing—and they will spend two days practicing formation flying. On Sunday, May 17, the regular army flying units will arrive at Wright field by groups. The army planes will shower down from Selfridge field in Michigan, Langley field in Virginia, Rockwell, Crissey and Mather fields in California, Ft. Crockett, Ft. Sam Houston and Kelly field in Texas, Mitchell field on Long Island, Scott field in Illinois, Ft. Sill in Oklahoma and Maxwell field in Alabama. Twenty-Mile Column Formation and combat practice will proceed for three days until May 20 and about 300 planes will fly to Chicago on May 18, demonstrating there, “attacking” the city and staging a review parade with a column twenty miles long. The “war” starts the morning of May 21, when all the 672 planes, under command of BrigadierGeneral Benjamin D. Foulois, assistant chief of the air corps, descend on New York. While these great maneuvers are planned to impress tens of millions

of citizens, it is pointed out that it has become vitally necessary for the air corps to test its technical and tactical theories with large units somewhat comparable in size to those which would be used in a war of defense. Every available piece of equipment will be used in the May maneuvers except training planes and It is estimated that of the 672 planes only about 450 actual combat planes could be promptly mustered in an emergency. The maneuvers are expected to solve many problems of tactics, organization, equipment, supply, ground facilities, radio communication personnel, airport availability

where the player should knuckle down if he wants to take the best advantage of his opportunities. Here he has a chance to get any one of the five marbles. He shoots at No. 3. If the shooter goes to the right, he has a chance for No. 1 or No. 2. If it goes to the left, he might get No. 4 or No. 5. It’s the only place on the ring line where the player has a chance to get any one of the five mibs—and if he’s wise, that shooter will stop near the center of the ring after a mib has been knocked out. For if the shooter leaves the ring, the player doesn’t shoot again until after his opponent has had his turn. Study every shot in Ringer. Practice daily. Another problem will appear Tuesday.

HOOVER DERIDES ‘CHARITY DOLES’ BY GOVERNMENT Defends Neighborly, Personal Aid in Speech to . Red Cross. BY PAUL R. MAL. UV United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April 13.—Government charity was denounced and neighborly personal aid defended by President Hoover today in a speech to the Red Cross here. The pathway of government doles is filled with barbs and thistles which would do great injury to American ideals, he told the opening session of the Red Cross annual convention. A policy of voluntary service must be maintained, he said. Leaves Out Personal Reference The executive did not make a personal reference to his fight over drought relief with the last congress, but as president of the Red Cross he congratulated the organization for the stand it took against federal charity in that emergency. “A voluntary deed by a man impressed with the sense of responsibility and brotherhood of man is infinitely more precious to our national ideals and national spirit than a thousandfold poured from ’the treasury of the government under the compulsion of law,” he said. “In problems of this kind we are dealing with the intangibles of life and ideals. Analyzes Charity Theory “We are dealing also with the highest thing in our civilization, that is, the sense of personal responsibility of neighbor for neighbor, the spirit of charity and benevolence in the individual holding alight the lamp of voluntary action in American life.” Mr. Hoover took the position that the work done by the great American relief organization during the last six months was convincing proof of soundness of the administration relief policy. He contented himself with an analysis of the theory of charity, leaving the fiscal aspects of the drought and business depression relief work to others.
