The war department chief opened
the Investigation Into all phases of
army flying Just a day after Presl.
dent Roosevelt called for a comrois
" slon named by congress to outline a
national air policy.
"Keep politics out of this," was the
tenor of Secretary Dern's admonition
to the committee of six civilian and
five military air authorities. He di
rected them to find out what should
be done to make the army air corps
"seoond to none In modern equip
ment and training."
: POlltlCS OUt
. "Your mission Is technical, not po
litical,", he said.
The group Is headed by Newton D.
Baker, wartime secretary of war.
Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh was
originally named, but declined to
serve. The Inquiry was decided upon
after a dozen fatalities accompanied
the army's taking over of the airmail.
As the army air corps Investigators
eat down at the war department for
their first meeting. President Roose
velt's demand for a national aviation
policy was getting prompt attention
on Capitol Hill.
Needs Outlined
The president. In conferring at the
White House yesterday with three
congressional leaders, told them he
wanted:
First: A commission named by con
gress to outline a national aviation
policy, and
Second: Speedy enactment of pend.
lng airmail legislation In order to
free airmail awards quickly from any
contact with politics.
The men to whom he spoke were
Senator McKellar (D., Tenn.) chair
man of the senate postofflce commit
tee, Representative Meal (D N. Y.),
holding the same chairmanship In
the house, and Chairman Black (D
Ala.) of the senate's airmail Investi
gating committee. ,
McKellar said he planned to bring
up the senate sir mall bill today and
that probably It would be amended
to provide for the study leading to
a national aviation formula.

midst and by reason of his character,
outstanding ability, kindness and
consideration of others, he has en
deared himself to all who knew him;

left vacant a place In this club which
It will be Impossible to fill; now there,

discussed at Monday's exceptionally
Important meeting. The board, after

vealod that the state educational

the question of compulsory student

lution recognizing the extra-curricular
activities such as athletics, pub

All bondholders of the Rogue River
Valley Irrigation district have con
sented to accept the loan made by
the government to the district on the
basis of 48 cents on the dollar and
the bonds have been deposited In the
First Nstlonal bank In escrow, await
ing arrival of the 880,000 from Wash
ington, It was announced today by
officials of the district.
The Rogue River Valley district la
believed to be one of few In the na
tion to obtain such unanimous 00.
operation from the' bondholders In a
refinancing program.
The loan granted the Rogue River
district by the government through
the RFC totalled . 880X00. This
amount constituted approval at the
rate of practically 48 ' cents on the
dollar, meaning that bondholders
would receive 48 cents on the dollar
on all outstanding bonds. Only two
districts In the state of Oregon re
ceived higher per cent loans on
bonds. They were Gold Hill and
Hood River.
The Rogue River Valley district,
formerly known as the Hopkins Lat
eral, eerves the Central Point and
neighboring area of the valley.
The district will have 30 years
time In which to pay the government
loan, whereas It previously had but
30 years to meet its Indebtedness.
Interest charged on this long term
loan Is only four per cent.
E. H. Judd of Medford Is secretary
manager of the district, and Attorney
Harry O. Skyrman of this city, legal
advisor. The board of director Is
composed of Victor Bursell, Donald
S. Clark, and C. H. Taylor.
