Congress' Opposition
. Of Neutrality Zone
Crystallizing
Norris Fears Program
Might Involve Some
Of Americas in War
B? the Associated Press.
Congressional opposition appeared
today to crystallizing attempts of 21
Latin-American nations and the
United States to maintain a neu
trality zone in the oceans around
the New World.
Voicing an opinion in which some
of his colleagues concurred private
ly, Senator Norris, independent, of
Nebraska said he thought establish
ment of such a zone had no sub
stantial basis in international law.
He also indicated belief that the
program might even lead to involve
ment of some of the American re
publics in war.
Senator Norris disclosed his views
as officials of the American repub
lics polished up the strong phrases
of a joint declaration to Europe’s
belligerents, protesting that the S00
mile zone has been violated.
Declaration Due Soon.
That declaration, prompted by in
cidents such as the fight of the
British cruisers with the German
pocket battleship Graf Spec near
Uruguay last' week, may be issued
this evening. It will be sent to the
belligerents by Don Augusto S. Boyd,
President of Panama.
Senator Norris, objecting to the
policy involved, said he thought
there was ample precedent in inter
national law to support a 3-mile
zone or even one 12 miles offshore.
“But," he added, “to arbitrarily
say that there shall be no battles
and no guns fired within 300 miles
of our shores is assuming jurisdic
tion that we do not possess and
have no right to assume.
Protest Plans Go Forward.
The American governments, never
theless, went forward with plans to
tell the belligerents that:
1. They have repeatedly violated
the neutrality zone.
2. Stronger measures than the
declaration may be expected if vio
lations of the zone continue.
3. The American republics plan
further consultations to determine
upon these measures.
Among the measures that may be
discussed is the exclusion from all
assistance in pan-American ports
of belligerent warships engaged in
war activities within the zone and
the interning of warships seeking
refuge in such ports.
May Force Reply.
The declaration probably will
serve as a means of forcing replies
from the belligerents to the notice
of creation of the zone served on
them in October, when the zone
w-as mapped out at a conference of
American republics in Panama City.
Authoritative sources said the
wording of the declaration would
be the same to all belligerents.
Secretary Hull said yesterday the
protest would be ready by this aft
ernoon or tomorrow.
The department has not yet
completed its inquiry.
In response to a question, Mr.
Hull said no reply had come from
Great Britain to the American note
of two weeks ago on Britain’s
blockade of German exports. He
added that a reply was ordinarily
expected to such a note.
oov. o lonor Deluged
With Holiday Delicacies
By the Associated Press.
ANNAPOLIS, Dec. 23.—Gov.
O'Conor will get Indigestion for
Christmas if he even eats a dent in
the mound of holiday dainties sent
him by admirers.
Goodies ranging from old colo
nial-recipe plum pudding to veni
son and including terrapin, oysters
and other famous Maryland prod
ucts, have been showered on him
daily.
Three-year-old Bobby, the Gov
ernor’s youngest child, has eyes no
smaller than dinner plates every
time the postman arrives. Bobby
has definitely transferred his affec
tions from the mythical but never
seen Santa Claus to the flesh-and
blood postman. He explains Santa
is only supposed to come once a
year, and the mailman ns back every
hour with a full pack.
The older O’Conor children,
counting up the Governor’s Christ
mas cards, found he has received
more than 4,500 holiday remem
brances from friends in 30 States
and two foreign countries.
Every mail brings other hundreds
of cards, and mailmen may soon
form the first O’Conor for President
Club—just to get him out of the
State and save their aching feet.
The holiday week end will be a
double main event in the O Conor
clan. Mrs. O’Conor’s birthday is to
morrow.

tory.”
Jibe at British, French.
The Finn’s Mannerheim IJne
across the Karelian Isthmus just
north of Leningrad was described
as equal to Germany’s Siegfried
Line on the French frontier, but
the Russians said they had broken
the Mannerheim Line at several
places, and jibed that the British
and French were not doing as well
against the Siegfried Line.
‘‘Finland was building these forti
fications for four years,” said the
communique, “with the aid of three
foreign states which fought among
themselves for influence in Fin
land as a base for attack on Lenin
grad and later on Moscow.”
It was on the ground of protecting
Leningrad, the Soviet Union’s sec
ond largest city, that Russia origi
nally made territorial demands on
Finland that led to the war.
“In its defense power, this system
of artificial fortifications, as, for in
stance, on the Karelian Isthmus,
reinforced by natural conditions, is
in no way inferior to the defense
power of the fortified Siegfried Line
on the western frontier of Germany,
against which British and French
troops have been fumbling already
for four months without making the
slightest progress,” the army as
serted.
“The Red Army knew of these
difficulties in Finland and therefore
never expected to annihilate the
Finnish troops by one lightning
blow.
“Only ignorance or overt hostility
toward the Red Army could ascribe
to Red Army leaders the wish to
do away with the Finnish troops in
one week.”
auea on ivremnn carpel.
Reports regarding Gen. Metets
koff, however, said he had been
called on the Kremlin carpet two
days ago to explain lack of success
against the Finns, and it was said
he was blamed for insufficient prep
aration for a quick victory.
Observers also professed to see
significance in the absence of Andre
Zhdanoff, Communist party secretary
in Leningrad, from among the Soviet
leaders whose names were appended
to published birthday greetings to
Joseph Stalin Thursday.
Zhdanoff has been largely respon
sible for the recent policy toward
Finland, and had been regarded
generally as Stalin’s probable even
tual successor as Communist party
leader.
Otto Kuusinen, chairman of the
Russian-sponsored ‘‘people’s govern
ment” for Finland at Terijokl, was
listed by Tass News Agency today
as sending congratulations to Stalin.
Observers previously had not noted
his name.
The Red Army reported that since
th^ war’s start it had advanced
about 81 miles from Finland’s Arctic
coast, about 92 miles “in the direc
tion of” Uleaborg, 50 miles in the
vicinity of Serdobol and about 40
miles on the Karelian Isthmus.
Uleaborg, known in Finland as
Oulu, is a Gulf of Bothnia port at
Finland’s “wasp waist”; Serdobol,
the Finnish Sortavala, is on the
eastern front just north of Lake
Ladoga.
On these four fronts the Russian
advances were listed as averaging
3V2, 4V4, 2% and 2 miles a day,
respectively.
Admits 1,823 Killed.
Of recent developments, a com
munique from the Leningrad mili
tary district today said, “Nothing of
importance took place on the front
December 22.”
Since the war began, the Red
Army said Soviet casualties were
1,823 killed and 7,000 wounded.
The Finns, it said, lost 2,200 killed,
more than 10,000 wounded, 1,402
privates, 105 non-commissioned
officers and 18 officers captured.
Capture of 35 cannon, 300 machine
guns, 3,000 rifles and other equip
ment from the Finns also was re
ported.
The Finns have reported “annihi
lation” of entire Russian battalions
and regiments. As long ago as De
cember 11, Copenhagen newspapers
estimated Russian casualties on the
Karelian Isthmus alone totaled
25,000.

Cold Men Better Crime Targets,
So Judge Gives Them His Coats
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 23.—The cor
pulence and charity of Judge Frank
lin Taylor—Kings County Court
led him onward today in his fight
against shirt-sleeved crime.
His extra wardrobe has been re
duced, practically, to a mere spare
dinner Jacket—but prisoners who
have come coatless and shivering
before him recently have left the
Judicial presence clothed, sentences
suspended—and, on occasion, with a
pocketful of change.
His latest sartorial open-handed
ness took three coats at one swoop,
and led him to account for his ac
tions thusly:
His conviction that a shivering
man yields more readily to the im
pulse to crime than a man with a
coat; a steady and dignified increase
in judicial girth, and the appear
ance of prisoners who did not seem
to him to be professional criminals.
Circumstances have arrived at
such a point, however, that court
attaches determined today that no
man who really had a coat should
appear coatless before Judge Taylor.
The Judge disclaimed any osten
tatious charity—an attitude borne
out in the manner he handled the
first coat-giving case a month or
so ago. The prisoner appeared with
neither coat, nor outer shirt, and the
judge quietly gave him a jacket and
a few dollars.
On December 5 an unemployed
man was arraigned on a charge of
stealing food. Judge Taylor sus
pended sentence, gave him a sweater
and $5.
Yesterday three more prisoners
appeared, all coatless.
Said the jurist to the first:
“Do you know what the weather
is outside?”
“It's pretty cold, your honor.”
“Haven’t you any coat?”
“No coat, boss—your honor.”
The “boss” turned to clerk, said,
“There are three coats in my locker.”
The clerk knew what to do.
He found a heavy red wind
breaker, a blue sports jacket and a
topcoat. As he distributed them
Judge Taylor made the prisoners'
sentences the time they had served
waiting for arraignment and wished
them a merry Christmas.
Capt. Irvin Seriously Hurt
In Airplane Crash
Capt. Prank G. Irvin, attached
to the Materiel Division of the
Office of the Chief of the Air Corps,
U. S. Army, was seriously injured
early today when the plane he was
landing at Indianapolis Municipal
Airport crashed, according to the
Associated Press. A passenger was
seriously hurt.
Capt. Irvin, it was said, was on
an inspection trip which carried
him to the West Coast, and he was
en route to Bolling Field here at
the time of the crackup. The craft
was wrecked, it was said, when it
nosed over as Capt. Irvin tried to
land in a slight fog before dawn.
Airport attaches reported he came
down at the Municipal Field after
deciding that Stout Field, the In
diana National Guard Airport, was
too small
The passenger in the plane was
identified as H. W. Kellhofer of
Dayton, Ohio.

1927; which Sir Charles Kingsford

Of the many thousands of air
planes which Mr. Fokker manu
factured during his lifetime, there
were others which made headline

which Mr. Fokker developed at the
age of 10.
On one occasion his engineers
were having trouble with the per

■ ...—..
ANTHONY H. G. FOKKER.
Mr. Pokker climbed into the cockpit
and went aloft.
“Take 96 square inches off the
rudder,” he ordered curtly when
he landed.
It worked.
Born in Java.
One morning Mr. Pokker's em
ployes arrived at his plant in New
Jersey to find him pacing the floor
and cursing eloquently.
“My design!” he shouted, point
ing to the wall in a comer of the
factory.
Somebody with a whitewash brush
had covered up a sketch and some
figures on a proposed plane which
Mr. Fokker had penciled there.
Known as the “Plying Dutch
man,” Mr. Pokker was born in Java,
April 6, 1890, the son of a wealthy
coffee planter. At an early age he
was taken to the Netherlands, where
his father, retired from business,
hoped to provide the boy with a
sound technical education.
Anthony already had exhibited
his bent. Once he blew the fuses of
the street car company in the city
of Haarlem by throwing a wire over
a trolley line to get electricity for
his toy railroad. He made all his
own mechanical toys.
Sent to an engineering school, he
quit forthwith lecause, as he ex
plained, he disagreed with his pro
fessors.
At the age of 18 he had begun to
construct his first airplane. It was
completed in 1910 and, in the Rus
sian military competition at St.
Petersburg it ran away from the
rest of the field. Mr. Pokker had
found his lifetime work.
Hired by Germany.
He peddled the design to several
governments unsuccessfully. But
Germany hired him. In 1913, under
contract, he was teaching young
Germans to fly in a military school.
At the age of 24, Mr. Fokker was a
vital part of the German military
establishment as it entered the
Wnrlri War
Mr. Fokker’s planes not only met
the demands of the army. TTiey out
flew anything the allies could pit
against them. In all, he built more
than 8,000 military machines for
Germany during the war and acted
as consulting engineer in the manu
facture of thousands of others.
As a sideline Mr. Fokker developed
the first synchronous machine gun
for the German Army to permit fir
ing through the propeller arc. He
insisted later that the British “stole”
his idea for a gun of their own,
though examination failed to sub
stantiate his claim.
Only 28 when the war closed, Mr.
Fokker found himself possessor of
a fortune-of 30,000,000 marks, owner
of two airplane factories and an.
armament factory, and holder of a
controlling interest in a motor
works.
With Germany’s collapse, he
calmly loaded everything he pos
sessed that could be moved on a
special train and crossed the border
into the Netherlands. The Ger
mans protested in vain.

Allied Navies Alert
4n Hearing 500 Nazi
Ships Are Returning
Hitler Is Said to Have
Ordered Them Back
By All Possible Routes
By the Associated Press.
PARIS, Dec. 23.—French naval
sources said today the allies are
keeping close watch for approxi
mately 500 German ships reported
to have received orders to return ‘‘by
all possible routes” from neutral
ports to the Reich.
These vessels have been immobil
ized since the start of the war with
an estimated total cargo of 1,800,000
tons.
Authoritative sources said Ger
many apparently is making a great
effort to get raw materials which
the ships carry.
Naval sources said they had
learned many German merchant
ships already had left neutral ports
in obedience to orders from Berlin
and the rest were preparing to
leave. The allies anticipated at
tempts to scuttle any of these ships
stopped by British or French war
ships. these authorities said.
The latest official French figures
reported 23 German ships had been
scuttled by their own crews, send
ing 157,000 tons of merchandise to
the bottom. The French added that
27 German ships had been cap
tured.
Allied contraband controls and
warships have seized 870,000 tons of
Ge;man merchandise, the French
said.
Military sources reported intense

temporary suspension of patrol ac
tivities by both sides, but that op

merous flights and dog fights over
the lines.
proportion in engineering design
and the success of his planes in war
time brought him an invitation to
come to the United States. He al
ready had established the Nether
lands Aircraft Co. in 1919 in Am
sterdam, and four years later he
founded the Atlantic Aircraft Co. in
Hasbrouck Heights, N. J.
It was then that Fokker non-mil
itary airplanes began to become fa
mous. Before he retired from active
designing and construction, his ma
chines had been purchased by 25
governments and more than 50 air
lines throughout the world. Scores
of them, constructed in the 1920s,
are still in use.
He was the first manufacturer to
make a large airplane entirely of
wood. Criticized in a board meet
ing of one of his companies, he once
shot back testily, “They work, don't
they!” His planes were noted for
the tremendous stresses they could
absorb in flight without damage.
Explosive Personality.
Mr. Fokker brought his explo
sive personality into the work he
launched in the United States. It
was not uncommon for him to Sum
mon his engineers from bed for a
conference. He regularly worked
16 hours a day. He neither smoked
nor drank. He held conventionally
trained engineers in a sublime con
tempt.
xne actor in rum came out once
in Washington when he took aloft
a group of United States Army
officers to demonstrate a new plane.
One by one he stopped each of
the three motors. Then he crawled
out of the cockpit and sat down
in the cabin.
“What's going to happen?” asked
one of his passengers, alarmed.
"That's what I want to find out,”
said Mr. Fokker.
The plane nosed down gently as
it lost flying speed. As it regained
its speed it levelled off. For several
minutes it alternately glided and
returned to level flight.
“See?” remarked Mr. Fokker,
shrugging.
He climbed back into the cockpit,
started the motors again and
landed, chuckling.
Unit of General Motors.
In 1927 Mr. Fokker’s American
company became a unit of the
General Motors Corp.
Not all of his planes were suc
cessful. As against the big Fokker
plane which the Army flyers, Mac
Ready and Kelley, flew non-stop
from coast to coast in 26 hours in
1923, the designer turned out a huge
passenger plane in later years which,
though it flew, airlines refused to
huy.
Though Mr. Fokker retained his
business interests, for fully five
years he had not been active in
airplane design or construction
work. He began building boats. A
Fokker yacht of bizarre appearance,
accidentally ignated, burned up last
October.
Twice married, Mr. Fokker was
twice a widower. He became a cit
izen of the United States about
eight years ago.
