MISSING LAW BOOKS REAPPEAR AS USE OF LIE DETECTOR BEGINS By United Press CHICAGO, March 15.—Longmissing law r books were mysteriously reappearing on shelves of the Northwestern university law school library today as a controversy raged over continuing the use of a lie detector to trace these books. An estimated 250 volumes had disappeared from the library shelves during the last year, it was revealed. The lie detector apparatus w'as chosen by the student council as the best means of obtaining the return of these books. Twenty-five students submitted to questioning while the apparatus traced the rapidity of their pulse beats in response to pointed questions. So much opposition to the use of the criminal detecting machine has arisen, how'ever, that the student council today debated w'hether to continue the tests. It w r as pointed out that more than 100 of the missing books have reappeared. Todd Files for Coroner Dr. Austin H. Todd, city councilman in the Duvall administration, today filed certificate of candidacy for Marion county coroner on the Republican ticket. Approximately twenty-five persons filed for public office today at election headquarters in. Room 34 at the courthouse.

FOULOIS HOLDS AIR MAIL IDEAL. FOR ARMY TEST Aviation Chief Says Task Gives Needed Insight on Preparedness. By United Press WASHINGTON. March 15.—The army air corps “must be completely organized, equipped and trained to meet any national emergency upon twenty-four hours notice,” said Major-General B. D. Foulois, chief of the army air corps, in a formal statement issued by the w r ar department today. General Foulois is on an inspection trip of the army air mail routes preparatory to resuming mail service. He said he considered the air mail flying ‘‘an ideal peace-time test” for the air corps. He said he did not believe the hazards of carrying the air mail were as great as those normally encountered by army combat pilots and added: Accidents Inevitable “With my twenty-five years of flying experience behind me, I can frankly state thats just as long as man flies there will be fatal accidents.’” If accidents in military and commercial aviation are to be reduced, he. said, adequate federal appropriations must be provided annually to develop aircraft and accessories. “Army planes and policies for years have provided for frequent peace-time tests to determine whether the peace-time military fitness and efficiency of its personnel and material are adequate to meet any national emergency,’” he said. Full Organization Necessary “In any national emergency involving invasion of the United States by any foreign power, there is reasonable- probability that the first line of our national defense will include the air forces as w'ell as our sea forces. “With this probability in mind, the air forces should be as fully and completely organized, equipped and trained in time of peace as our navy. “The opportunity afforded the army air corps to carry the air mail, with but approximately ten days in which to prepare, constituted, in my belief, an ideal peace-time test of the army air corps’ organization, equipment and training, and as chief of the army air corps, I freely, frankly and without reservation, welcome this opportunity. Casualties Are Listed General Foulois listed the following casualties: , Fiscal year of 1932, fifty; 1933, forty-six, and for the current year to include March 13, thirty-nine. “It has been by policy for years to stress the development of safety factors and safety devices for aircraft even to the extent of frequently testing such safety devices in flight by myself before allowing them to be issued for general use by other pilots,” he said.
