Every city, town and village will be clearly marked so that its location is understandable to the pilot. All this is a part of a Civil Aeronautics Administration program begun in 1935 to develop a method of marking sky so plainly that the possibility of a pilot's becoming lost during contact flight is practically eliminated.

The officially adopted system will be nut into effect by the CAA just as soon as the army's ban on navigational aids to private flying is lifted. involves the lettering of the name of the town on a roof or wall in characters from 10 to feet high, also the latitude and longitude of the place, separated by an arrow pointing to true north. Special symbols will tell the pilot the direction and distance to the nearest airport, airpark or landing area. These four items comprise a complete air guide for the pilot. A typical air guide might read I north) "DOYLE 95.3." 39.3 (arrow Translated, pointing this means true that you are flying over the town of Doyle.

If an airpark is nearby, this same information will appear in a circle short arrow. Locations Planned In addition to being painted on the roofs and sides of buildings, air guides may also be placed on highways; on mountainsides where the letters and arrows will be formed of crushed rocks: on lawns, road intersections and clover leaves with small shrubs forming the letters, and in desert areas, where letters will be made from enameled metal strips mounted on posts a few feet above the ground. Some markers may be illuminated at night to aid private.

flyers traveling after dark. Chrome yellow and black or international orange and white are the preferred colors for high visibility. Air guides are already being established around some military training fields. Officials of many States are urging every town to get on the air guide map. It is expected that about 100,000 air markers will be required to cover the continental United States adequately.

A special manual has been prepared by the CAA Airways Engineering Division to assist those interested. Copies will be made available to anyone planning to install air guides. 10 From This Area On Navy List of 294 Casualties Washington, Aug. 21 -The Navy Department today announced 294 casualties of the U.

Sees Dewey Attack As Direct Bid For Willkie Aid Dean Alfange, Liberal party leader, today characterized Governor Dewey's attack on the Dumbarton Oaks conference as direct bid for Wendel Willkie's support." He also charged Governor Dewey with contributing to German hopes for a division among the four great Allied powers. He said: "On Sept. 5, 1943, at the Mackinac Conference, Governor Dewey proposed an outright continuing milialliance between the United States and Great Britain to keep the peace after present hostilities. "On April 27, 1944, at the Newspapers Publishers Association dinner, he spoke of a 'durable cohesion between Britain our ourselves, together, I hope, with Russia and "In neither statement did he go as far as Roosevelt, Hull and Willkie had gone in urging participation of other nations, 'great and in the organization of the peace. lance with Great opposed Britain.

power He alli- also showed a tendency to criticize the Teheran concept of an agreement between the four great powers. "Thus. Governor Dewey is making a direct bid for Mr. Willkie's support by abandoning his previous proposals for a two-and, if possible, four -nation alliance. He shifts with every wind of opportunism.

"Governor Dewey's political manipulations have a more serious bearing. At the present moment the Nazi propaganda broadcasts are predicting strife between England and America, and between Russia, England and America. The Nazis hope and pray for a division of the four Allied powers. It is unfortunate that Mr. Dewey should promote German hopes in order to promote his own political fortunes."

Death Writes Finis To Clan of Brady Who Built Utility Empire The death in Gloucester, last week of Mrs. Margaret Ruth Brady Farrell of Albany, widow of the late James C. Farrell, marks the death of the last child of the late Anthony N.

Brady, multi-millionaire, whose name figured prominently in the transit and utility development of and Manhattan half a Brooklyn, ago. Mrs. Farrell's husband was the son of the late John Henry Farrell, founder of the Albany Times Union. The Rev. Joseph A.

Farrell, S.J., former president of Brooklyn College, was a brother-in-law. Anthony N. Brady was among the greatest of the financial giants who came on the American scene in the late 80s. Starting as a bartender in Albany, he utilized his political acumen to become a leader of the Democratic party in the capital city and then came to New York for greater fields to conquer. Getting an insight in the enormous profits of the transit and utility fields from investments in the relatively small electric and gas plants in the upstate town as well as in the street railway lines, the Irish immigrant piled one of the country's largest fortunes during his more than a quarter of a century of activity--a fortune over which his children were to wage several bitter lawsuits following his death.

Ruled Utilities Here During the height of his power, Anthony Brady was believed to be the controlling in the old Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company as well as the principal shareholder in Brooklyn Union Gas Company, the New York Consolidated-Edison in the two boroughs. the properties and many surface. lines days when the cream rose heavily to the top of the pitcher and Brady and his associates from upstate got theirs while the getting was good. Among those who later came into prominence in New York industrial and financial circles associated with Brady in his colossal deals were the late Edward Maher and Thomas Murray. Maher headed several of Brady's trolley concerns, while Murray was his active agent in many utility operations.

Both had occupied minor jobs with the old Albany Illuminating Company, Brady's first venture in the utility field. Brady did not confine his hand to business. but stretched it forth, albeit somewhat concealed, into the realm politics. "Brady dough" was often given as the explanation for the success of some up and coming young politician who. on the surface, did not seem to have a ghost of a chance of election.

And in a manner it was Brady influence-but for another gave Franklin D. Roosevelt, his initial prominence. Young Roosevelt Elected The story harks back to the days of the Democratic administration of Gov. John A. Dix.

At that time, the Democrats had captured the Legislature as well as the governorship because of the Bull Moose split in Republican party. Due to defection within the G. O. young Frank Roosevelt, campaigning as a Democrat in what was considered the absolutely sure Republican Dutchess-Columbia counties senatorial district. was elected.

Taking his seat in the upper house of the Legislature, one of the first things Roosevelt ran head-on into was the cut-and-dried arrangement of the bosses, under the leadership of the late Charles F. Murphy of New York, and John McCooey of Brooklyn, to ram through approval of the (Blue Eyed Billy) Sheehan for nomination of the late, William C. United States Senator. The Legislature elected the U. S.

Senators at that time. Sheehan, a Brooklyn resident, who was an attorney for the Brady interests, had previously served a term as Lieutenant Gov.ernor.

Woolley dismissed Chesley because he said he was The regional head asserted there had been numerous complaints of the failure of Bronx ration boards to enforce OPA regulations. Calls Woolley a 'Joke' Speaking from Carmel in Putnam County, where he was spending the weekend Chesley said, "Price control under Woolley is certainly in a muddle.

This man Woolley is a joke. No one can point a finger at the Bronx rationing boards. We are carrying a bright light with nothing to hide.

Saturday Closing For Exchange May Be for Duration Saturday closing on the New York Stock Exchange may be continued for the duration, it was learned today. Exchange governors voted last Friday to close for the Saturday sessions through Labor Day weekend. That move is expected to ease the transition to a permanent five-day week- -or at least one until the war is over. Two reasons are advanced for believing the plan will be carried out, namely: 1. The Stock Exchange member firms are short -handed and have been working their help long hours without time off.

Saturday closings would solve the five-day week problem. 2. The newsprint situation is such that any savings would be highly beneficial for the newspapers. The Stock Exchange relies upon newspapers to publish its quotations, and hence any aid it can give them in saving a bit of paper would help in making possible publication of quotations on the other five days of the week. The foregoing arguments are advanced by the proponents of the Exchange closing plan.

Heretofore the big wire houses have opposed any closing except on recognized Exchange holidays. Pvt. J. P. Olvany, Killed in France Reprinted From Sunday's Late Editions Pvt.

Today's Profile In a voice described by sportswriters as a bourbon tenor, Roy Richards, king of the Brooklyn Dodger fans, is singing a dirge these days from his newsstand at the corner of Empire Boulevard and Flatbush Ave.

His high pitched chants commenting 011 the ups and downs of Dodger affairs! have been poeti-' cally resounding, in Brooklyn for Roy Richards some 16 years now. Born 56 years ago in Spencer, Richards has been a Dodger fan ever since he lost his job in a shoe factory in 1920 because he insisted on sitting out the historic 26-inning game at Boston on May 1 of that year. He decided to throw in his lot with the Dodgers after that and came to Brooklyn, where he found a job 1 in a shoe factory at night so he could sell peanuts, popcorn, candy and soda pop at Ebbets Field during the day. Later he gave up the factory job and opened the newsstand four blocks away from the field. "Dem Bums" had gotten into his blood.

He couldn't bear to be separated from them. He used to be able to get someone to mind his stand he could get away for all the games, but he nas been hard hit by the manpower shortage and he can't leave his stand as often as used to. He even has to double on Sundays as a "Coney Island chicken" salesmanhot dogs to you and me. He makes no bones about his feelings toward Branch Rickey. A sign at his stand perched blantantly over a toy dog reads "Rickey sent the Dodgers to the dogs." "Lissen, honey." he'll say, "those guys are really in a rut now.

They can't get much lower." But his final comment really shows what he means. "Before dey was just kiddin' when dey called 'em bums, now Rickey's made it de truth," and he shakes his head sadly. There won't be much joy in Richards' sing- -song chants until the Dodgers get Larry MacPhail back.
