CLAUDE L'ENGLES FORESIGHT
HAS BEEN INDICATED

During Claude L'Engle's brief
career in congress he introduced a
bill appropriating million dollars
for aeroplanes in the army and navy
The Florida congressman bill was
hooted at, and he was severely crit
icised That was less than two years
ago. yet in that short period we have
seen the sentiment in this report so
changed that million dollar APP
preparation for the same purpose
would verify likely receive favorable
consideration The next session of
congress will probably Witness not
only theintroduction but the passaee
Of some such measure. The war in
F, Europe is no doubt responsible for
this rapid change in public opinion.
The practical value of the flying ma
chine in war had never been demon
strated prior to the great war. There
had been many trial fights which
We're theoretically successful, just as
army maneuvers are when there is
no actual enemy to combat-but
there can be little question that the
public mind was more doubtful than
certain concerning its value. 1t was
generally regarded as an expensive
plaything, and the governments
which encouraged the manufacture
and use Of it were looked upon as
extrava'ant beyond the bounds of
reason.
Now we see widespread move
ment to educate the public up to the
idea of having an adequate flying
machine establishment and corps as
a. regular department of the army
equipment. Our government has
done little along this line. Only
year or two ago it was impossible
for an aviator to enter the service as
an aviator. 1t was necessary for
him to enlist as private and at the
pay of private and take his
chances for advancement along with
the others.
1t is interesting to observe, too.
that as the practical value Of the
flying machine has become estab-
lished in the minds of the people, the
value of it as an instrument of
amusement has decreased. Exhibi-
ton flights no LONGER attract any
great interest or enthusiasm, and ac-
cordingly the compensation of avia-
tors has decreased An aviator
formely found no trouble in getting
hundred dollars for a single flight
of a few minutes duration. but now
he is lucky to get half as much.
The flying machine-under which
generic term all sorts of aeroplanes,
monoplanes and hydroplanes may be
classed-is in truth no LONGER cur
icsity. The people have seen and
accepter it, just as they did the
steam engine and the automobile
and other epoch making inventions.
And now such fictitious persons as
Darius Green and real people as
Claude LEngle are indicated for
their prophetic foresig,ht.-Orlando

Even lynching is progressive
science. A white mob in Mississippi
hung a white man yesterday for the
murder of another white man. From
all accounts he needed hanging, but
he must have been shocked to think
that with the woods full of "niggers''
everywhere around him, the moo
should have picked on him to keep
itself in practice.

that one must not be too hard on
those providing this money If they
think the loss of these vast sums
more horrible than the downfall Of
state Of which they have formed ar
entirely erroneous idea
There is a third point Everybody
usually judges another by himself.
Anglo-Saxon imperialists are fully
aware thar they woull wrongly
utilize an army like ours in conjunc-
ton with greater fleet Just as soon
as they could for foreign conquests.
So they find it quite a matter OF
course to attribute to us such de
signs and. if we deny it, they see in
our act only praiseworthy caution.
So the endeavor to make clear to
them these errors is hopeless task
How can one make the truth seen in
this case?
1t will be well for us, therefore to
resign ourselves and leave the fight
for the good cause TO our American
friends. If we show the activity ex-
pected OF us, we simply play our op-
ponents' game. The latter are eager
to brand the elements friendly to us
as traitors to their country and TO
suppress them We held our tongue
so long before Italy and when we
could get in Il word, moderated our
feelings to such an extent that We
can act similarly toward America
The Wceld.war is teaching us better
self-cG-col And this will not harm
us.
But our diplomats are much better
than their cflling. We made scape-
goats of them 2cause we knew that
nobody in Germany wanted a war
and felt that somebody among us
must also be guilty. But now we
recognize more and more clearly
that we may have attacked innocent
men in the heat OF our passion who
were not permitted to defend them
selves. So, in this as well as so many
other matters. we may keep conf

A GERMAN VIEW

AS to Why Americans Strongly
Favor the Allies.
Whoever has devoted himself for
years to the study Of the peculiarities
OF the American people could not
have lived through the last few
weeks without painful agitation
Even now. after favorable news is
coming in, such man would be
justified in fearing that misled popu-
lar opinion might be harmful to our
fatherland For among us there are
most widespread mistaken notions
about the United states which might
easily lead to detrimental express
ions of opinion.
The ailment brought forth by the
war-the craze Tor generalization
which looks upon all members OF
nation as the same sort of beings
existed in relation to America even
in times of peace. The Americans
themselves liked to spread this idea;
they considered their similarity to
each other matter for pride and
the Germans initiated this mistaken
generalization from them, only they
| imagined another kind OF typical
| American. Whereas the Americans
were prone to boast OF being the
standard bearers of the highest NOR
, ality. the Germans locked upon them
| as constituencies money'grubbers,
| Both of these estimates are correct
only for certain exceptional cases;
| the great mass of the American peO-
pie are neither so noble as they
think themselves nor so bad as we
assume. Taken all in all, they are
I much more like us than either side
| thinks.
! First we have both friends and
! foes across the water; should we de-
sire to ayenge ourselves on the latter
it would be necessary for us to strike
the former. This circumstance alone
| makes it appear desirable to main
! tain peace with the United States,
even if not under all circumstances.
This will not appeal to many
who prefer to "speak German" with
| foes. But even if one is to speak
German to anybody, one must not
insult him with unjust accusations.
Such are unavoidable if there is mis-
understanding The hostility OF in
fluential American circles is unwel-
come to us. of course, but it rests
as a contrast to the case OF Italy
on sentiments which we cannot dis
miss without further ado as contemp-
| tible if we understand them correct
| ly..
The fact that people across the
ocean are fighting against us yet still
! calling themselves neutral, in order
to avoid German conference.-the is
not due to weakness or cowardice,

American slang is amusing; that 1t
explains point well; that, in fact, it
hits the nail right on the head with
unerring aim. But at the same time
Iit too often violates every rule of cor
rect speaking, and, though 1t may be
very expressive in America, in other
countries it is listened to with sheer
amusement and with no little criti-
Icism.
The following specimen of purest
English--a movie synopsis--recent-
iy appeared in an English periodical,
and duly electrified rs readers:
when Walter was a high school
rabbit he snooped after one old
enough to be his mother. Next he
fell on an. Amazon who wore blazer
and walked like a policeman. The
she-acrobat couldn't see him. AS a
sophomore he was strong for the
actorines. When he was a senior the
footlight favorites were no longer
worthy of him. He was all snarled
up over the sister of prof.
| cat commencement they were al
most engaged. His father put him to
work, and two weeks later he had for
gotten the lady highbrow.
HE began to act more like a human
being and less like a college graduate
He was full of business and had very
little time for the fluffy gender. At
40 he was known as good business
man, with an adamant heart. All the
fair sex passed him up Then he met
Violet. She was a half-portion, aged
IS. She did not know who was Presi
dent, but she was cutie to look at. A
week later he began sending flowers
and sitting up and barking when she
snapped her fingers. She got him with
a pruning hook, and now he's proud
father"

typical of the speech of many Ameri
cans. But its effect on people of Other
countries can be better imagined thar
