Improvement Follows
Warning of Daugherty
To Building Industry
Washington, April 13. Marked
improvement in conditions in the
building trades,; Attorney General
Daugherty said today, has been evi
denced since his' "modest but em
phatic warning" of last week against
illegal practices. There is an im
provement everywhere, he -declared.
For the most part, he said, it would
appear that the department was re-'
ceiving the outside help it had asked
for in remedying the evils of price
fixing and illegal combinations in
the building industry. It would seem,
he asserted, that , the government
could get . along , with the request
that these practices be discontinued,
although there might be some prose
cutions and some civil suits.
Unification of
Government Air
Service Opposed
Postal Aviators to Be Made
Part of Army . Reserve .
Force, Secretary of War
Announces. '
Washington, . April 13. Unification
of the aviation service of the govern
ment, concerning which there has
been much agitation, was opposed by
President Harding in his message to
congress, the president taking the
view that aviation is inseparable from
either the army or the navy.
There will be co-operation,, how
ever, between all the government
departments concerned with aviation
and in the development of commer
cial aviation The president ap
proved the report of the national ad
visory commission for aeronautics,
recommending establishing of . a bu
reau of aeronautics in the Depart
ment of Commerce for the' regula
tion of air navigation and urged that
this be given legislative approval.
The air mail service, which the
president described as an important
part in the direction of commercial
aviation, is to be consolidated into
the military department of the gov
ernment for emergency purposes,
Secretary of War Weeks declared,
following the presentation of the
president's message. '
"As soon as we can do it," said
the secretary of war, "all postal avi
ators will be placed in army reserve
and in the event of an emergency
they can be called into aviation serv
ice of the army.
"Under this arrangement the train
ing and preparation of postal avi
ators can be improved and they will
be better prepared for the postal
air service. Of course, while in the
reserve they will be under postal
jurisdiction. If called into emer
gency war service, the postal air mail
would be necessarily cut out until
the emegency passed."
The president was particularly
emphatic in urging the development
of commercial aviation outside the
government, so" that the government
might be savfcd. the experience
of development and maintenance of
an industry now almost entirely
borne by the government through
appropriations for the military, naval
and postal air service."
