and forty minutes. by a leaking radi-
ator.
The flight was the result OF test
prescribed by the naval officials to
ascertain Just what could be accom-
plished with one Of the giant planes.
The boat was the H-i6 type and was
driven by two Liberty motors develop
ing 3S horsepower each In addition
to the pilot, the heavy machine was
loaded to its capacity, carrying beside
the necessary gasoline and oil, eleven
men as passengers.
The flight is qssidered remarka-
bic In comparison With the records es-
tablished at other naval air stations
in the country. The tests are made
under g strict set of rules which gov
ern the loss Of time in making forcef
landings for fuel and in case OF acct
dent. The rules deduct and add time
In the following manner according to
the cause OF delay: deduction of five
per cent OF the total time is made for
each landing, deduction of ten per
cent for the changing OF machines.
deduction of ten per cent for each half
/ hour under the prescribed aen hours,
and an addition Of five per cent for
each passenger carried.
Figuring the flight on that basis.
Lieutenant Roman was forced to de-
duct five per cent for his one landing.
and twenty-five per cent for the fact
that he remained in the air IN actual
time for but eight hours AID forty
minutes, which is an hour and TWEEN
ty minutes less than the prescribed
ten hours. This loss, however, was
counter balanced by the fact that he
carried eleven passengers, which gave
him percentage OF SIS to the good.
Combining the percentages the result
gives Lieutenant Roman a plus per-
centage of PSI which allows him to
add 2o per cent of his actual time il
the air. That is one hour and ten
minutes to the actual time OF eighs
hours and forty minutes, making to-
tai time Of ten hours and fifty min
utes, which betters the record test by
fifty minutes.

II these estimates are correct or
approximately correct 1-4626 of the
population Of the United States pos
sesses more than one-quarter Of the
wealth.
In other words one-fiftieth OF one
per cent Of the population possessed
in e9t6-t7 more than a quarter Of the
money wealth.
In tabulating the total fortunes in
the different classes estimates appar-
emily conservative were made. For
example in the sf25.OO0,00O or more
elias an average of $3.50, 100000 was
taken In view Of the fact that one
American fortune is believed to be
nearly one billion, this would be a
moderate average.
In other cases except in the lowest
lists, the mean between the high and
low was taken.
In the lot between 100000 and
s25. 100000 the basis OF s2.5O0,80o was
selected.
1t Is an unhealthy condition to have
such an unequal distribution of
wealth. Congress. in recognition OF
this fact, has been tryingto devise a
corrective. It has been struggling with
what it termed an Inheritance tax law.
By this measure 1t propose, when
man leaves millions Of dollars to col
lect from the beneficiaries through
taxation a proportion Of the money in
accordance with the size OF the be-

quest. The tax is graded one ran
ing up to M per cent.
The trouble with this proposed tax
is that when the tax is heavy it means
confiscation
The great trust companies are en-
deavoring to provide insurance for the
payment Of Inheritance taxes without
making 1t necessary to sacrifice prop
critics left by millionaires. The rates
are very high as most big miliionaires
are OF advanced age. and at the same
time. they have q reluctance to pay

Great wealth. well employed, is OF
an immense value to q nation Men OF
initiative, men who are the grea,
doors of the great things, are entitled
to full reward for their talents. but
at the same time the holding OF one
quarter Of wealth of mighty nation
by one -fiftieth OF one per cent of the
population, gives basis for agitation
that may cause grave discomfort.
There is silver lining to most
things in America. There is in this
matter OF our many millionaires. De-
spite the colossal wealth OF our ultra
rich the per capita wealth OF our non
millionaires is very much greater than
that OF any other people on earth.
And. besides, money does not make
happiness. Sometimes, however, it
helps a bit in that direction.

the principles of Christianity. He
ended up as the most violent advocate
of a conspiracy to destroy free gov
eminent and free press. The pow
err, however, which had been lodged In

fects of this league. Who is going to
keep it from under the control of a

keep it from under the control of a
