P.). — A $22-per-month WPA worker, his wife and four small children established “home” in a 1929 model automobile on a Saginaw street today after being evicted from their $10-per-month house. | Jrowds gathered about the kerosene stove, sewing machine and dismantled beds leaning| against the car as Walter Parker, 54, poked a leg through the window and said: “County officials( the Constable) moved me out—so here I stay.” He explained that he couldnt move to another home because he had no money—his next WPA check comes Wednesday—and even if he had his $22, he would think twice before sinking it in rent. for a $20-per-month house. Parker searched for two days and said he was unable to find anything cheaper. The problem of food apparently had been solved for Parker said, “We'll eat, alright.”

open letter to the young pilots of America, appealing for an end to the “epidemic” of attempts to fly the Atlantic Ocean in light planes. Moved by the probable deaths of Alex Loeb and Dick Decker, unreported since they took off from Nova, Scotia for Ireland, the CAA chief wrote “let's stop this epidemic of trans-Atlantic foolishness before it goes any farther.” Mr. Loeb and Mr. Decker are the third and fourth {to lose their lives in such attempts this year. Flights such as theirs contribute nothing to aviation and serve only to make more difficult aviation’s job of presenting itself to the public as a safe form of transportation and sport, he declared. “We have imposed stringent penalties for taking part in and aiding such pointless flights. We intend to enforce them. But something more than mere administration of the Civil Air Regulations is needed. “So, as chairman of the Civil
