FEDERAL HANDLING PRIZE ADMAN! BY EX-ARMY HEAD (Continued rrom page one) Roosevelt administration for a sec ond time for Its action in turning the airmail over to the army, spurned last night Secretary of War Dern's Invitation to help in a broad study of army aviation. Early today a conciliatory answer i .hummed over the telegraph wires to. the airman. In It Secretary Dern said: "Your telegram Indicates a mis conception of the purposes of the committee on which I asked you to serve. Wants Thorough Study "I desire a comprehensive study of army aviation In which carrying airmail will figure only incidentally as a lesson In determining the effi ciency or -shortcomings of the army air corps, regarding which the pub lic Is bewildered so far as national defense Is concerned. "I am sure your counsel would be very valuable." The new break between the famous airman and the administration over the white-hot airmail controversy stirred much Interest today. Such terms as "unfair," "unjust" and "contrary to American principles" dotted the telegram in which Lind bergh turned down the war depart ments Invitation. Honor Appreciated "I greatly appreciate," Lindbergh said, "the honor of your request that I become a member of a special com mittee to study and report upon army aviation in relation to national defense." the telegram began. "I would of course be glad to con tribute in any way that I can to the maintenance of national defense. However, according to the announce ment by the war department, this committee Is to study and report upon performance by the army air corps In Its mission to carry the air mail as directed by executive order. "I believe that the us? of the army air corps to carry the alrmal was unwarranted and contrary to Ameri can principles. Action Called Unjust "This action was unjust to the air lines whose contracts were cancelled without trial. It was unfair to the personnel of the army air corps who had neither equipment designed for the purpose nor adequate time for training In a new field. "It has unnecessarily greatly dam aged all American aviation." His closing sentence was similar to an earlier criticism he leveled at the administration "on February 11, soon after the postoffico department took the malls away from private 1 fc i t y "... s Vv V Thomas Clapp, senior In journ alism at the University of Oregon, has been awarded third prize In the national advertising copy con test sponsored by E.

"The condemnation of commercial aviation by cancellation of all air mall contracts and the use of the army on commercial air lines will unnecessarily and greatly damage all American aviation." Colonel Lindbergh, who is techni cal adviser to Transcontinental & Western Air. one of the companies whose contracts was cancelled, sent his first protest direct to President Rosevelt. It was made public before the president read It, and the result was a rebuke from the White House. Chamberlain Accepts Invited to serve on the committee with Lindbergh were Orvllle Wright, Clarence Chamberlain and others. Wright declined for reasons of health, but Chamberlain accepted, saying: "They picked a committee that represents views on both sides of the fence. The army is perfectly capable of carrying the mail, but H needs more training, more equipment,- more time." . There was no indication today as to whv - ldbergh would recon sider his refusal to serve. At President Roosevelt's order a survey designed to produce a new air policy for the United States was pressed. There were some indications that the upshot may be a proposal to set up an agency to control all aviation army, naval and civil. Spec ulatlon along this line has gone so far as to forecast that Brig. Gen. William Mitchell may be put In charge of this all-potent agency. Ramon Novarro Is Star of Romantic Craterian Picture Romantic, in a light musical atmos phere, "The Cat and the Fiddle," now playing at the Craterian theatre, holds definite entertainment values for the regular theatre-goer and should be more than ordinarily attractive to those who appreciate good music. Clean and wholesome throughout, the picture depends upon the romantic and dramatic story values, plus the Jeanette MacDonald and Ramon No varro singing to put over its punches. It does adapt one unusual tack In that the climatic sequence Is present ed In color. Given a continental atmosphere, the story action is centered In Brussels and Paris. In situations to at permit light as well as comedy, Ramon No varro as Victor, traditionally poor but ambitious composer, is attracted to Miss MacDonald playing the role of Shtrley, who knows that the real mon ey Is In popular ballads. Realizing that life will be easier If she tolerates this odd creature, rather than having him continually pester her,, the two get together. With Charles Butter worth meandering In and out in typi cal Butterworth fashion, Novarro, who has he eked his score for taxi fare, must recover It for an audition before the Professor (Jean Heraholt.) Frank Morgan, playing the role of Daudat, considers the classical stuff worthless, but Is much Impressed by the ability and beauty of Jeanette. Promoting her for romantic and financial reasons, he publishes her numbers and puts lots of ballyhoo into their selling. Moving to Paris, working undor Jcanette's charity. Novarro finds the affair between her and Horgan be coming too Irksome and returns to Brussels to put the finishing touches on his operetta. When, at the last moment, his backer runs out on him, he decides to put on the show alone. Harkenlng to the old call of love, Jeanette -steps into the prima donna role and sings Ramon's composition to an artistic ond commercial success. There Is real romance tinged with comedy and good music In "The Cat and the Fiddle" and Judging from comments heard after the picture's screening, the producers have not muffed an opportunity to mix to mince In an altogether different light than heretofore.
