The flying area of Logan Field, Dundalk, will be increased approximately one-fourth when new hangars, including storage tanks and pumps, now under construction at the southwest corner of the field have been completed, it was learned at Third Corps headquarters.
Four dilapidated Besseneau hangars, canvas affairs with wooden frames, are to be replaced by three naw structures of permanent air service type. The old hangars, originally designed as temporary knock-down structures, were erected during the World War.
The new ones are constructed of steel girders with asbestos covering and metal roofs and sides. Underground oil and gas tanks, a new feature at Logan Field, are being installed in connection with the construction work.
A large concrete platform will be built near the tanks to enable planes1) to taxi close up to them. This arrangement, together with a long rubber hose, is expected to facilitate service and eliminate former fuel problems.
Material for two of the new hangars was furnished by the Government, but the funds for the actual erection of the buildings was supplied by the State of Maryland and the work was done under the supervision of the National Guard.
Work on the third hangar is being done by contract under the supervision of the Third Corps Area^ quartermaster and involves an expenditure of about $9500. Altogether, the three new hangars will accommodate 18 planes.
According to Capt. Charles T.

Keys, who recently sold out his interests in the Standard Delicatessen Company, on North avenue, Baltimore, left a note for his wife when he disappeared saying he was going on a long trip, but would forward a check every week.
A check was received at Keys' home Monday. It bore a Baltimore postmark. Because relatives think Keys still is in this community the plea to find him was made at Police In the \ Headquarters.

(Special to The Jeffersonian) Crime in the United States, in proportion to the population, has decreased rather than increased since prohibition went into effect, according to a report made public by the World League Against Alcoholism. Savings to the States through the decrease in crime exceed the amount formerly paid as revenue by the liquor interests, the report sets forth, the saving being "conservatively estimated" at $200,000,000 annnally.
The survey, which the league says is the most extensive of the kind ever made, is based on figures from the police departments of 300 cities and the District of Columbia, every State except North Carolina and Oklahoma being represented. It covers arrests for all causes in the
