The Henry Hudson Drive
Work in Progress on the Roadway in
Palisades Interstate Park
To the Editor OF The Tr,bune

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Referring to the editorial in
your Monday issue urging that the
roadway which the Palisades Interstate
Park Commission is constructing along
the Hudson River should be known as
the Henry Hudson Drive, not the
Hendrick Hudson Drive, am very glad
to inform you that the official name of
this roadway is the Henry Hudson
Drive, and it is always 30 referred to
in the commissions annual reports and
IN the legislative appropriations for its
construction. We are very desirous
that the public should call it by this
name, not by the name by which it
is often, as we know, improperly
known. Your editorial, therefore, per
forms useful service in calling public
attention to this matter.
I may say in this connection that
work is now in active progress on the
completion of the first section of this
roadway. This will extend from the
present Englewood approach to the
drive completed several years ago)
northward five and one-half miles to
Alpine, N. j., on the top of the Pali-
sades, opposite Yonkers. With it's com
Fiction vehicle ferry across the Hud-
son will be opened from the foot of the
Alpine Approach. as it is officially
termed, to Yonkers. When this section
is completed and opened to traffic it
will be the most beautiful scenic road
way anywhere about New York City
and will afford convenient access to the
beaches along the Palisades.
This is only the first section of the
drive. Eventually, as appropriations
become available, the Henry Hudson
Drive will extend from Fort Lee to the
northern end of the Palisades, where it
will join the main north and south
roadway along the river. 1t is the hope
of the commission that eventually the
term Henry Hudson Drive" will be
applied to the entire roadway on the
west side of the Hudson River from
Albany to New York City.
Another section of this roadway
which will compete in attractiveness
with the Palisades section will be the
road which the State of New York, in
cooperation with the commission, is
building around Storm King and along
the steep side of Crows Mast Mo,a
tam. With the completion of this sec
ton 1t will be possible to come from
Cornwall directly south to West Point
without making the long detour now
necessary.

And Murphy Grins

The Anti Saloon Leagues common
dation of Messrs. Hylan and Enright
for their zeal in enforcing the Vol
stead act is calculated to break once
more the often broken heart Of the
"Old Soak" of Don Marquis. Last
summer, supporting Brother Cox in
the belief he was a wet prohibition
list, he discovered he was dry liquor
man. The arid old gentlemans grief
was pitiful.
To add insult TO the present in
jury, Murphy is reported grinning
even shaking with laughter. 1t is
the funniest experience Of a political
career. He had not calculated on
such easy credulity on the part of
his new friends. He rushed out to
buy black gloves and white ties to
send to the City Hall and to "Smil-
ing Dick"
But there was q whispered warn

To the Editor of the Tribune.

10 thc Editor OIL the Tribune.
Sir: The recent accident in Pater-
son, N. j., in which a pilot and his
passengers were killed while "stunting,"
points again to the necessity of suit
able legislation to prevent pilots from
jeopardizing the lives of people in
trusted to their judgment and care.
The aircraft industry IN this coun-
try has practically been brought to a
standstill by the cessation Of the war
and is now painfully struggling to
reach foothold in commercial ex-
ploitation similar to that attained
abroad, and the only way to overcome
the present attitude of the public tow
ard flying is by popularizing the aero
plane and showing it for what it really
is--a dependable, fast, thoroughly safe
method of transportation.
The manufacturers and importers of
aircraft are all bending their energies
toward that goal, which will not be
reached as long as the public looks
upon aviation as a circus stunt. An
accident such as this one, unnecessary
and preventable, has most perncious
influence in reviving that fear which Is
so extensively being overcome.
1t is perhaps not understood by the
public at large that machine is SUBJ
ject while "stunting" to stresses many
times larger than those encountered in
safe and sane fights. While "stunting'

France To Be Trusted
To the Editor of The Tribune:

To the Editor of The Tribune:
Sir: If Mr.. Pierpont B. Noyes is
still American Rhineland commissioner
/ hope the sentiments which he ex-
pressed before the Polity Club of
Princeton, as reported in The Tribune,
will come to the notice of President
Harding and that Mr.. Harding will
see the impropriety of his holding the
Office.
Mr.. Noyes speaks of "the new Ma
poleonic conquest" and Of the French
as "the chauvinists of Europe"
AS a matter of fact, France, in its
inherent qualities and the genius of
Its people, is as thoroughly democratic
as is the United States. In an ad-
mirable degree she is the exponent of
the principle of live and let live.
Her attitude toward Germany is
fully warranted by circumstances and
the character of the Germans.
There could be no more promising
thing for the future of civilization
than for the United States to trust
these ingrained qualities of France and
to stand by her in the fullest accord.

The Borah Amendment

The Borah amendment to the Sem
ate naval appropriation bill author
ICES and requests the President to
do something which he has all along
been anxious to do and which most
Americans would be glad to see
done. Military expenditure has be-
come heavy burden, here as else
where. The American people are
willing TO support it if national
safety requires them to do so. We
were burned in 1917 and still dread
the fire. But any alleviation within
the limits Of prudence will be well
coined.
We do not build warships simply
for the sake of building them. The
existing competition for supremacy
at sea governs our policy. If the
other principal naval powers-Great
Britain and Japan-are willing to
limit naval expenditure we also can
afford to limit it. All that the
Borah amendment does is to ask the
President to call a conference with
Great Britain and Japan for the
purpose of agreeing on a restriction
of naval construction for the next
five years. Such an agreement, if
effected in way to prejudice none
of the three leading maritime ma
tions, either in relation to the other
two or to the minor states which do
not restrict building, would help
greatly to relieve the economic
strain of postwar readjustment.
The bad feature of other naval
disarmament proposals brought be-
fore the Senate was a cessation of
building by the United States in ad-
vance of any agreement. This
snlacked of pre-war pacifsm, which
preached the fantastic doctrine that
the best assurance of keeping out
of trouble with a neighbor was to
disarm faster than he did. There
are still some statesmen in Wash
ington who, if they can only get the
United States to stop naval con-
struction, don't care how many keels
the other naval powers keep on lay
ing down.
The Borah amendment doesn't
alter our own naval policy or inter-
fere with its primary end, which is
adequate national defense. 1t looks
only to balanced international action,
which will hurt no nation partici-
pating in it and will save money
for all.

! is permissible when done by compe-
tent test pilots to compare the actual
with the calculated performance, it is
distinct detriment to the machine
when INDUCED in constantly.
Commercial machines are now be-
ing built with the factor of safety
ample enough to take care of the larg-
est loads encountered in ordinary fly
ing, but even the most modern product
of the aircraft factories of Europe will
not stand repeated overlooking of all
its members under stress. This applies
more forcibly to the great majority of
aeroE.Sies now taking up one or two
passengers at a time, the owners of
many of which realize the valuable
work they are doing in educating the
public and accordingly forbid "stunt-
ing" by their pilots; but some pilots
apparently cannot stop showing off,
and sooner or later come to grief, while
aviation receives another black eye.
The Canadian government recently
has passed law making it an actual
ofrense to "stunt" with q passenger,
whether with or without consent, and
the sooner such law is passed in
every state in the Union the better it
will be for all of US who are endeavor-
ing to bring the supremacy Of air travel

Not an Investment

The recent case of the La Belle
Iron Works, decided by the Federal
Supreme Court, sets at rest impor-
atant issues in excess profits taxation
but not at all to the purport an
nounced in some of the newspaper
headlines. Neither for the purposes
of the excess profits tax nor for the
purposes of any other Federal tax is
appreciation on properties held to be
taxable profit or taxable income. The
decision established merely that the
marking up of assets on the books of
company--a marking up assumed
for the purposes of the case to be
justified by the facts-and the dec
laration of a stock dividend for the
amount of the estimated apprecia-
tlon could not operate to increase
the total sum of the Invested capi-
tal' on which return of per cent
could be computed as exempt from
the operation of the excess profits
tax.
In 1904 the La Belle Iron Com
pany purchased ore lands at the
price of $4,000. BY 1912 the lands
had been sufficiently developed to
convince the company that they were
worth $1O,000,000-a reasonable ap-
praisal, it is assumed--at which sum
they were reinventoried on the books
of the company. Forthwith the COM
pany increased it's issues of stock.

New-York tribune., 1921-05-27
Let 'En, Talk

The decision of Postmaster Gem
eral Hays to readmit to second class
mail privileges ono OF the most ex~
treme of the radical publications is
based on common sense American
ism.
The publication in question is not
one whose tone and contents COM
mend themselves to The Tribune or
to the vast majority of Americans
who have taken the trouble to read
it. It seems frankly to advocate the
overthrow Of democracy and the SUBJ
stitution of the autocracy of
class functioning through dictator.
1t is a matter of doubt whether it
would bring about this change by
peaceful persuasion or, as in Russia,
by the application of force. Here,
surely, is basis for the contention
that the government should not give
what is equivalent to a subsidy
(that is, service below cost) to such
publication.
But our government is a complex
one, it's powers widely distributed.
If there is advocacy of the over
throw of the government by force it
is contrary to the criminal anarchy
statute of New York. Yet there
has been no Indictment and convic-
tion. The practical question thus
arises as to whether the Federal
government should take notice of an
offense whose commission Is not for
mally established.
Mr.. Hays holds that he cannot do
this except by assuming censorship
powers. No such censorship now
legally exists, and he does not be-
lieve, taking broad view, that it
should be created. So he sees no
option open to him but to admit the
publication as a matter of course to
second class mail privileges.
Mr.. Hays indicates he is the more
willing to follow this liberal course
because, like the majority of Amerl-
cans, he prefers to construe doubts
not against but in favor of liberty.
We have got along as nation fairly
well under policy which does not
think so meanly of truth that it is
afraid error will overcome it. Many
preposterous and subversive doc
trines have been advocated in Amer
lea and they have withered and died
under system of salutary toll
erance. If the criminal courts do
their duty there is no need of ad-
ministrative DEGREES which set up
dangerous precedents.
Persons of enlarged vision will be
inclined to believe that the Postmas-
ter General has acted wisely and
judiciously. Americans may we'll
take pride in the gracious fact that
the majority is so tender of the
rights of the minority that it con-
cedes to it privileges that it does not
claim for itself-is so fearful Of
abusing it's power that it constantly
turns the other cheek.
