DELAY ORDERED IN DELIVERY OF STATETRUCKS Leslie Parley Results in Calling of 2-Week Moratorium. A two-week moratorium on the state highway department truck contract deliveries was the result today of the conference Wednesday between Oovernor Harry G. Leslie and state highway commissioners. Two weeks from now the new budget will be effective. Under the law, any surplus of maintenance funds remaining at the end of the fiscal year is transferred automatically to construction. The 120 trucks, contracted for, were to cost $159,295.41, the money to come from the maintenance surplus. What will happen when that money is no longer available was not explained. “We didn’t go into that,” Direc-* tor John J. Brown of the state highway department declared today. In the interim, investigation is to be continued, it was declared. A contract for Dodge trucks is the principal matter under scrutiny and Studebaker engineers and salesmen were called into the commission conference for “technical explanations" Wednesday. Dodge representatives also are to be heard during the two weeks, it was announced. New Ross Official Dies By Times Special NEW ROSS, Ind., Sept. 24. Funeral services were held today for Samuel B.

Scientific Papers Read to Medical Men at Annual State Parley. “Practice of herding school children together for removal of tonsils is wholly unwarranted,” Dr. H. H. Martin of La Porte declared today at the Indiana State Medical Association meetings at the Claypool, attended by approximately 1,200 physicians from more than eighty county and local societies. a government bulletin, Dr. Martin said one-third of the operations performed since 1024 have been for removal of tonsils. “Is is not up to lay organizations to make recommendations for operations,” Martin declared. “That should be the duty of family physicians.” The program today at association meetings was an all-Hoosier presentation of papers on scientific subjects. Tonight, the annual banquet of the association will be held in the Claypool. Dr. Edward H. Cary, Dallas, Tex., president-elect of the American Medical Association, will be the speaker. Councilors from the thirteen districts of the state and the house of delegates at meetings Wednesday refused to change districts of the association to conform with the new congressional districts.

Akron, unanimously acclaimed “airworthy" after a t successful maiden voyage, was made ready for further tests today to prove its right to become the flapship of America’s lighter-than-air fleet. Expressing himself as “satisfied” with the first flight, LieutenantCommander Charles E. Rosenhadl, skipper of the giant airship, was to cqpfer with the naval board of inspection and survey on the date and

route for the second trial trip aloft. He indicated the “test” would be made either Friday or Saturday. “The Akron lifted a load of 113 men, the largest number ever carried in an airship, on its first flight,” the skipper said. “We cruised for 3 hours and 47 minutes, and are well satisfied with the performance of the ship. The Akron is an innovation in airship design and construction, but there is every reason to believe this type of ship will be a successful one.” Charles Francis Adams, secretary of the navy, who was aboard when the Akron swung away from the Goodyear-Zeppelin Corporation dock here, joined Commander Rosendahl in expressions of satisfaction. Commander Rosendahl’s order, “Up ship,” sent the 785-foot bulk, a veritable flying fortress, off over a triangular course. After . circling the airdock for the first hour of flight, the great scout vessel swung its bow northward and plowed through the sky toward Cleveland, thirty miles away. While thousands gazed in awe at the huge sky cruiser, the Akron skirted over the shores of Lake Erie, hovered for a moment above the city and headed homeward, its en-

gines faintly audible to those on earth. While cruising back to the base, two of the eight Maqbach reversible engines, one on either side, developed trouble. Engineers repaired one while in flight. The power was shut off from the second and it was permitted to remain idle throughout the remainder of the flight. The great airship loomed over Akron at dusk, its red, white and green lights winking to the crowd of 150,000 assembled to welcome it

As light settled over the landing field ahd the airship was still aloft, floodlights were switched on to aid the ground crew. A short time later the Akron nestled in its dock, safely moored after the initial flight.
