COMMISSION TO • STUDY AVIATION WINS APPROVAL Roosevelt Proposal to Be Embodied in Black Air Mail Bill. BY KENNETH WATSON Time* Special Writer. WASHINGTON, April 17.—Early passage of the McKellar-Black air mail bill so broadened as to permit President Roosevelt to appoint a commission to recommend a national air policy was predired today by party leaders in congress. Their forecast came after a White House conference late yesterday, attnded by Senators Kenneth MeKellar (Dem., Tenn.), Hugo L. Biaek (Dom . Ala.;, and Representative Jame M. Mead <Dem.. N. Y.. The President expressed himself ns favoring the principles of the legislation. "We expect to get the bill up this afternoon and I expert passage Hn the senate this week,” Senator McKellar said. Mr. Mead, chairman of the house postal committee, announced his intention of having the commiTtee report out his bill, which is similar to the McKellar-Black bill, tomorrow, but expressed doubt that the house would be able to consider the legislation before next week. All three were enthusiastic over the i i suggestions of the President that congress should authorize a commission to make an immediate study and recommend to the next congress a broad policy covering all phrases of aviation, including civil, military, manufacturing and i experimentation. Bids to Be Opened Friday Pending passage of the semipermanent legislation it was announced that there will be no interI forenee with the plans of the postoffice department to award temporary air mail contracts on twentyone routes. Bids are to be opened Friday noon on seventeen of the routes and on the remaining four the following week. The McKellar-Black bill as now drafted provides for awarding mail contracts on competitive bidding for a period not to exceed three years. The Mead bill is similar, except that a maximum of four years is stipu- ' lat.ed. Both the senate and house bills will bar from bidding operators Nriiose contracts were cancelled in I( oruary, until thorough corporate reorganizations have been effected. , According to McKellar the only material change in his bill suggested by the President was to stipulate that contracts may be terminated within one year. President Is Praised Democratic senators today praised the President for suggesting the scientific approach to the aviation problem represented in his proposal for the immediate apftointment of a commission. "I think the suggestion is wise. It has been pretty well demonstrated in recent months that there has been no well defined policy toward aviation carried out in this nation.” Senator Black' said. I think the suggestion of the President was most timely and I believe that some remarkable results will follow,” declared Senator McKeelar. Similar comments were voiced by Representative Mead. Meanwhile, the special Black investigating committee today resumed its probe into the air mail activities with Senator Warren Austin (Rep., Vt.), planning to grill /independent operators again in an attempt to prove charges of a wellorganized plot to effect cancellation of air mail contracts.

2,000 CLEVELAND GAS STATION OPERATORS GO OUT ON STRIKE

By l tiited Pram CLEVELAND, April 17.—A virtual tie-up of automobile and truck traffic faced Greater Cleveland today as 2,000 members of the Gasoline Station Operators union walked out on strike. Only stations operated by independent dealers were unaffected by the walk out, voted almost unanimously early today at a mass meeting. Twenty major distributing and refining companies, and firms operating chains of stations were left without attendants. Philip Hannah, union secretary, said the vote was 1.414 to 30. Union officials said the strike was called when demands upon the distributing and refining companies were not met. These include union recognition, signing of anew working agreement and upward revision of present wage scales. Doctors Sign for I. U. Course Physicians from twenty states have registered for the post-grad-uate course in otolaryngology offered at the Indiana University School of Medicine. The course is offered by Dr. John F.

COMPETITION IS DEATH DEALER, SAYSJ’HYSICIAN ‘Nothing We Can Do About It/ Adds Famous Specialist. By T’nited Pmt CHICAGO, April 17.—The men of America were misled when some one told them that life begins at 40 —they really begin to decay at the tender age of 26 and there is very little to be done about it. This startling statement was made to the United Press today by Dr. Nathan S. Davis, internationally known heart specialist, as three thousand doctors gathered here for the American College of Physicians to find out what’s what and why in their profession. Dr. Davis, grandson of the founder of the American Medical Association, said that the competitive pace of American business, strength-sap-ping sports and “keeping up with the Joneses” has slashed years from the lives of American men. Little Can Be Done “There’s very little that can be done about this discouraging situation,” he said, “except careful breeding for heredity which is more important to longevity than diet, physical habits or medical cure.” At present, he added, about 50 per cent of all men over 45 die of diseases of the blood vessels and onethird of the deaths among men of all ages can be attributed to blood ailments. He paused, however, to explain that the new generation will live longer because of the widespread use of vaccinations, especially diphtheria anti-toxins, and improved sanitary conditions for the rearing of children. “What should the man of 26 do to stretch his span of life?” Dr. Davis was asked. Competition Is Harmful “Well, there is nothing better than to stop competition of all kinds,” Dr. Davis said. “I mean business competition, sports competition and social competition.” For the man around forty he recommended golf instead of tennis and medal play instead of match golf. “Oh, yes,” he added quickly, “and I’d suggest solitaire instead of poker because an evening of poker might easily take six months or a year from a man’s life.” Blotchy Complexion!
