ARMY AIR FORCE
TO 6EGINGAMES
3,000 Officers and Enlisted
Men and 244 Fighting
Planes to Participate.
By the Associated Press.
The Army today ordered concen
tration of virtually the entire General
Headquarters Air Force in California,
beginning May 1, for a month of ma
neuvers.
Approximately 3,000 officers and en
listed men and 244 fighting airplanes
will participate. The planes will be
based at the Army’s field at March
Field, Riverside, Calif.; Hamilton
Field, San Rafael, and various munici
pal and commercial flying ports.
Maj. Gen. F. M. Andrews, com
mander of the Headquarters Air Force,
will be In direct command.
Beginning May 1 planes and men
will take off from various sections in
the United States for speed dashes to
the Pacific Coast concentration points,
the rapidity with which widely sepa
rated units can reach a given destina
tion being one of the main problems
of the maneuvers.
After all ships are concentrated,
daily maneuvers, involving actual of
fensive and defensive battle practice,
will be held by bombardment, pursuit
and attack squadrons. Units from
Langley Field, Va.; Barksdale Field,
La., and Selfridge Field, Mich., will par
ticipate with G. H. Q. wings already
stationed on the Pacific Coast.
The entire personnel of the first
pursuit group at Selfridge Field will
be ferried in 15 large Army transport
planes to the operating airdrome at
Muroc Lake. Calif. Stops are to be
made at Muskogee, Okla.; Amarillo,
Tex.; Winslow, Aril., and Albuquerque,
N. Mex.
RELIEF PETITIONERS
KEEP DAVEY OFFICE
Demand $50,000,000 Ohio Pro
gram Be Adopted—Governor's
Secretary Voices Welcome.
By the Associated Press.
COLUMBUS. Ohio, April 9.—A dele
gation of 30 unemployed men and
women decided last night to continue
indefinitely their occupancy of Gov.
Martin L. Davey’s office until their
demand for a $50,000,000 poor relief
program is met.
Ben Gray, president of the Ohio
Workers' Alliance and leader of the
group, said John Caren, a secretary to
the Governor, told him the delega
tion had “helped greatly” in putting
pressure on the Legislature for a rapid
solution of Ohio's relief problem.
Caren ht d told the delegation it was
welcome to stay over the week end.
As Ohio’s “stop-gap” relief program
approached its date of expiration, April
15, the Senate Relief Committee began
drafting a bill to care for the needy
thereafter.
