Representative Barbour (R.) of California declared that if the dis missal of 2,000 officers is actually carried out, the War Department probably will transfer to other duties men who now are instruct ing cadets in the high schools. In Washington, it was pointed out, such action may force a gen eral revision of the educational system as many youths who are now in the cadets would be forced to readjust their regular school hours. Such readjustment and result ing confusion is likely to cause serious overcrowding of already limited educational facilities of the District it was said.

AUSTRIA ASKS AID GENEVA, May 14 (I.N.S.).—An appeal from Austria to the League of Nations for immediate finan cial aid was received todu* SATURDAY—MAY 14—1932 MISSING YOUTH HUNTED HERE Washington police were asked today to look for Arthur Rupley, jr n said to be the son of Arthur Rupley, of Carlisle, Pa., promi nent in Pennsylvania State poli tics. Young Rupley is said to have been in Washington Monday night on his way home from Florida, and to have called by telephone Mrs. Arlen Stover, of the Westchester Apartments. He told her that he was coming out to see her. He did not arrive, however, and had not returned to Penn sylvania last night. Mrs. Stover called the police today, telling them that she had been in com munication with the boy’s home and that his parents were much disturbed by his absence. The possibilty of violence is feared, since Rupley apparently had no intention other than to call briefly at the Westchester and then to go on toward Car lisle.

Airport officials have been warned by the Department of Commerce that title claims by the Federal Government to 46 acres of the airport may be ad vanced unless the improvements are made. More than $1,500,000 has been invested by the airport officials, they point out, and although they would like to erect a large con crete hangar; they will not do so if the Government advances its claims.
