“WAR BOOK" AT McCOOK FIELD
KEY TO NEXT AIR WARFARE
DAYTON, O., Jan. 13. the
United States were to engage in war
fare tomorrow, a certain closely
guarded book would be rushed to
Washington from McCook Field.
It would tell government officials
how to build airplanes; exactly where
to get materials; wha,t aviation prin
ciples and ideas were sound and what
were obsolete; what airplane parts
should be standardized, and what
should be junked.
At the field, which is the engineer
ing division of the army air service,
the book, which in reality is not a
volume in the strict sense of the
word, is known simply as the “War
Book.” Its resting place is known
to only a few and access to it is
impossible.

FERTILE VALLEY OF WEST
MAY REVERT TO A DESERT
BISHOP, Cal., Jan. 13. (/P)—Owens
Valley, cradled on the eastern slope
of the high Sierras, once a fertile,
productive region where cattle roam
ed Its grassy floor and fruits and
grains grew in abundance, is threat
ened with return to the desert wastes
from which hardy pioneers reclaimed
it more than half a century ao.
Water, the perrenial point of con
troversy in the West, formerly flow
ed thru Owens Valley betwene the
banks of the Owens River and into
canals and ditches dug by the early
settlers to irrigate the fields and
orchards. Now it has been diverted
into the Los Ange*les aqueduct to
supply the needs of the city, 225 miles
southward.
BAG PIPE RETURNS TO FAVOR
AS JAZZ BAND INSTRUMENT
GLASGOW, Jan. 13. (/P)—1The bag
pipe, which was threatened for a
while last spring when an American
jazz operetta introduced the saxo
phone to Scotland, has come back
into its own.
The bag pipe was recently intro
duced in a jazz band here and in
this new role has been going strong
ever since. Only large men are en
gaed as jazz bag pipe players be
cause of the necessity of having in
dividuals with an enormous lung ex
pansion who are capable of keeping
pace with the saxophone and double
quick time.
