HARVEY
 ON WASHINGTON

(From the Springfield Republican,
 Ambassador Harvey said in Lon don on Memorial day that George Washington was "a great British soldier" It should not be ignored that the ambassador also described patriot" but that was to be expect ed from an American ambassador. That Washington was also "a greai British soldier will naturally be questioned by millions of surprised Americans
 While one need not torture the phrase or read into it strained meaning in order to cast discred1t on the ambassador, it may be fairly said that the word British in no sense can be applied to George Washington. The word British ap- plies to Great Britain, or. in the wid- est sense, to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and to the people and civilization therein Neither Canada nor Australia, nor COulh 4Id IOoShy 4Eo AoI1NLh" --AN empire is British in the old sense that it belonged to Britain, but to be in the British empire does not necessarily make a dominion, a. colony or de- pendency British. except in the sense of ownership.
 As for George Washington, he was a colonial American of English an cestry down to the period of his ena1- nent military career. which followed the Declaration of Independence. His British connection was completely ruptured in both the political and the military aspects when he cast his lot with the insurgent states and became the commander-in-chief of the Con tinentaI army. In describing Wash ington as ca great British soldier Ambassador Harvey juggled to no purpose with the historical facts and said nothing that could promote bet ter relations between the two coun- tries For our British friends must know that calling Washington "a great British soldier may easily cause reactions in this country of doubtful value to the cause of international amity.

THE ORIGIN OF LONG ISLAND

Long Island affords particularly clear evidence as to the history of the great continental ice sheets which covered the Northern States many thousand years ago.
 The southern margin of this great ice sheet according to the United States Geological Survey, Department of the Interior, extended to Long Is land and remained there for long time, depositing a thick body of in termixed boulders, sand, and clay as a. terminal moraine. which is now the 'backbone" of the island. The ice moved southward across the area that is now occupied by Long Island Sound and brought these materials from the north, dropping them at it's melting edge. This method of deposi- ton, developed very peculiar topos- raphy, consisting of an irregular az gregation of hummocks and hoIlows, which have produced the many beau tiful details of configuradon that make the higher parts of Long Is land so attractive to lovers of nature The most notable of these hoIlows in the moraina1 ridge is the one holding the picturesque Lake Ronkonkoma, which lies in a depression 50 feet be- low the surrounding ridges. Several other similar pits are so to S5 feet deep, and some of the larger irregu- lar hoIiows are several miles long.
 The older rocks of Long Island consist of the granite floor, which comes to the surface near East River and Hell Gate, and cIays and sands of Cretaceous age, which not only crop out at places along the north shore but rise into high mounds that lie under the surface deposits at places in the west-centraI part of the island. The geologic history of Long Island is a long and complicated story, but many of its details are cleafIy indicated by the character and the relations of the various deposits atd by the diversities of conffgurationA

STILL 4 DANGER
CFrom the Boston PoSt)

(From the Boston PoSt)
 The terrible accident that befen the great army ambulance airplane Eagle resulting in the deaths of all seven of it's passengers, brings home once more with poignant emphasis the fact that there is as yet a danger in every flight Whatever it was that went wrong with the big plane may never be known; all that we do know is that such catastrophes. being out of the normal, are something that should not occur.
 The great problem now confront ing the practical students of aviation is that of devising some form of sta bflization that shall keep an airplane afloat, or at least, allow it to aIight easily, no matter what happens to it in the air. That will surely come in time. The best inventive minds in the world are constantly at work on its solution. Many believe, in ad- dition. that we have not yet hit upon the real solution of human flight, but that it is something totally different from anything now practised-
 Meanwhile, it is a sorrowful reflec- ton that what appears to be the worst airplane disaster in the whole his tory of flying should have happened to an American machine directed by a United States army pilot
