Hagner's Invention Aids Transpacific Flight Navigation
Fred Hagner of San Antonio develops a position finder for aircraft navigation that mechanically solves the astronomical triangle. The instrument, praised for speed and accuracy, enables checking the plane's position every 10 minutes and supersedes the sextant in determining latitude and longitude during the planned 2490 mile transpacific hop. International Hydrographic Office in Monaco has requested illustrations for inclusion in its Hydrographic Review.

Threaten Ath Abandonment Warning In Congress
Washington April 13 A warning that the entire AAA may be scrapped if amendments to the adjustment act fail to pass in Congress was voiced by farm administrator Chester O Davis in a radio speech. He said the act can serve 2,600,000 farmers of special crops or milk, and with their support the whole act is in danger if amendments fail. Davis attacked the Agricultural Industries Conference as leading opponents and charged they spread exaggerated propaganda to confuse farmers and consumers and oppose the amendments. He called the conference a powerful group representing middlemen.
