Iu a short time attack on Chairman Cox became frequent and vicious. He was charged with personal Irregularity In connection with a radio station in his own district. The attacks then settled down Into a general charge that Chairman Cox was not conducting a fair and impartial Investigation, that he was using all sorts of unfair and even base methods to get the head officials of the FCC In a hole.

Some days ago Chairman Cox reined as chairman of the Investigating committee and made a very frank statement on his reasons for so doing. There are some unusual features about the way In which his resignation was accepted. First, he was widely applauded when he had concluded his speech and then Speuker Sam Rayburn himself paid a high tribute to "Gene" Cox, concluding with these words: Aud I say to this House, after 20 years of Intimate association with the gentleman from Georgia.

No fairer man has ever presided on the rostrum of this House than our present distinguished and beloved Speaker, and. bis words carry force and weight, not only In this body, but throughout the length and breadth of this country, because the people of this country have confidence in the gentleman from Texas, Sam Rayburn, the Speaker of the National House of Representatives.

For example, last Friday, on the authority of a very prominent official in Washington we referred to the Industrial plants erected for war purposes by the Federal government at a cost of twenty-three BILLION dollars. The very next day we read a statement by another Federar official equally as prominent as the other one, who referred to the Industrial plants erected for war purposes by the Federal government at a cost of thirty BILLION dollars. JlVe have no disposition to be petulant about being let down to the tune of seven BILLION dollars by the first prominent Federal official but merely for the sake of accuracy, which in other days was taught as a cardinal principle in newspaper statements as well as one to be observed by public men, we do think the habit of loose change talk in BILLIONS is dangerous.

"The record shows that business has shared this viewpoint.

Probably no man as yet realizes all the strange new problems to come up for settlement some way after this war Is over. Cou utiles definite boundaries. Oceans and seas have definite shores. But the air is without boundaries.

Where shall powerful planes that make nothing of the fhjngs that once served men as definite markers, be stopped, inspected or regulated? There will have to be developed by experience, and International agreement a new body of law. For planes may bear innocent travellers and legitimate goods or not. In every land the authorities rnunt know and prevent what is evil. Planes may be the Instrument of smugglers evading customs duties, carriers of narcotics against law or of organised criminal. But planes must have bases, even for perfectly legitimate business and control of these base may easily become dangerous matters of competitive rivalry.
