He was taken to Moline Public Hospital in the fire department ambulance. It seemed today that whatever additional candidates for the Moline Board of Education there may be are wpiting for the last day to file their petitions. Tomorrow noon is the deadline for filing, and up to Dispatch press time today the only candidates definitely in the race were the four who came out on the first day for filing, Feb. 24. Yet to announce their intentions are two present Board members whose terms are expiring, President Harley Moorhusen and Huntington Sharp.

Sharp said today he'd have an announcement tomorrow morning. Moorhusen is out of the city. The question also remained as to whether any members of the Pledges of support to "save the Hennepin Canal" echoed from the mouths of at least seven candidates in April primary nominations as over 200 members of the Moline Conservation Club and guests enjoyed the second annual sports and hobby show in Moose Hall. The candidates were allowed short talks during the brief business meeting and program. They were introduced by Charles J.

DAVENPORT Approval of architects' plans for a new Scott County courthouse today by the Board of Supervisors set the stage for actual construction of the long awaited building. The new courthouse will be three stories in height with a full basement providing adequate room for all county offices and is to be built with the Jt, 480,000 available from bonds issued by the county after approval by the voters in 1915.

Plans call for a building func tional in design making use of stone and aluminum and other products manufactured locally. It will be built on the site of the present antiquated courthouse with the old building to be torn down before the new one is started. The plans provide for increased space for all county offices needing more room. The building itself will contain 84,856 square feet including the basement and will provide 84 per cent more usable space that the old Argosy magazine. He claimed state conservation officials have neglected to defend themselves against the charges contained in the Argosy article; though most of the audience was aware of the 5-page letter written by Director Glen Palmer to Howard J.

Iwis, editor of Argosy, summing up the Conservation Department's contention that the article was fraught with error. (A synopsis of the Palmer-Lewis letter appears on the feature page of today's Dispatch.) Arndt's suggested solution was to place the Conservation Department on a non-political civil service basis. Mayor Johnson told the group that, although he is not a hunter or a fisherman, he stands for wildlife conservation and perpetuation of the canal. Muhleman and Jones pledged their support for retaining the canal, as did Bauwens. Mrs.

He declared scheduled flight is now so safe that the accident rate is .05 per cent per 100 million passenger miles.

So few are the accidents per number of persons flying and miles traveled, Klapp said, that one could be born, live and die in a plane without ever encountering a mishap.

In the beginning, Klapp said airlines depended upon the air mail subsidy. Now, he said, 13 major lines have no subsidy at all, and at the average rate of $1.85 per pound for such mail, most lines do not make enough to pay for their cost of gasoline. Before Klapp spoke on the present condition of air commercial service, Mayor Walter Beuse was introduced. He referred to Robert Elliott, president of the Rock Island Junior Chamber, and William Pape, president of the Moline Junior Association, and expressed the hope they would continue to be good friends of the Davenport organization when Ozark Airlines transfers its operations from Moline to Davenport Municipal Airport April 1. Beuse Commends Beuse also commended the Junior Chamber for pushing public awareness of the danger to children in old and abandoned iceboxes.

Beuse said the just-adopted Davenport ordinance against having such unused boxes about the premises is the first in Iowa and said the Jaycees were to be complimented for "the outstanding project" of recent years in helping get the ordinance enacted.

Safety, comfort and dependability have been the aims of commercial flight, he said.

Complete Flights Last year, 98 per cent of all scheduled flights were completed, Klapp told his audience in support of his contention that commercial flying is both safe and dependable. In the years since air lines began flying for hire, Klapp said cruising speeds of airliners have risen from a shaky 110 miles per hour to an easy 300 in pressurized cabins. Jet plane transcontinental flights on a regular commercial basis are "just around the corner," Klapp declared.
