begin to think of home, which to them
after such a trip will be the entire
United States. A fight of $40 miles
will bring them down along the Maine
coast to Boston, with only two more
hops left, one of 1876 miles to Mitchell
Field, and another of 220 miles to
Washington.
Originally it was intended to have
the flight end at Washington, but a
short time ago officials of the service
announced that they favored Glover
Field, Cal, as the finishing point in
order that the, air route around the
world actually would be completed. 1t
is proposed to have the f;ers leave
Washington for the cross continent
flight, following the route to Mounds
Vile, w. Va, Dayton, Ohio, and then
along the air mail line as far west
perhaps as Sacramento, CAL, before
turning south to Glover Field.
Air officials plan to have the trip
made as expeditiously as possible in
order that efforts to beat the record
of the American fiers, which are ex-
pected to be started generally, may
be made as difficult as possible.

to the support of public opinion in all political
parties to bring about the desired economic
results
The biggest men in our country, regardless
of party, are agreed that reconstruction OF the
economical life of Europe on sound business
principles is indispensable to our own we'll
being and prosperity.
Take the simple fact that Europe bought 80
per cent of our farm exports, making market
for the surplus products of our farmers, max
ing business for our ships, railroads and factor
les - and then realize that that market was
destroyed by the war.
After the ar1nistice, four years were spent in
fighting over political theories, largely over
names like the League of Nations and the
World Court, but always arousing partisan
strife and prejudices and racial antagonism.
The recent London conferences that have
reached an agreement on the reparations plan
were not conducted on political lines - the
new labor premier of England presiding Amer
lean statesmen participating without inject
ing politics.; Germany and France for once
burying the Ratchet and all subscribing to the
final agreement the greatest step toward
international peace along business lines that
has even been taken.
Much remains to be done to carry the repara-
lions plan into full effect. Berlin and Paris
advices show strong desire to work for peace
and friendship between the people of the world.
France and England were about as far apart as
taken for the evacuation of the Ruhr. Peace
hath her victories no less renowned than war. :

On June Is the aviators reached the
nearest point to the equator, when
they flew from Tourane to Saigon, a
distance of $50 miles. The route then
led them to Bangkok, Siam, CTS miles
away, which they covered June 1S,
and two days later flight of $50
miles to Rangoon, Burma, was made.
One of the planes upon descending
collided with cargo boat, damaging
! the wings, which necessitated a de-
| lay of five days for repairs. The 445
miles from Rangoon to Akyab were
covered June % and the next day in
going to Calcutta, distance of 400
miles, it was necessary to make ten
minute detour out to sea to avoid a
storm.
The flyers remained in Calcutta I'M
til July 1 and in the meantime Com
mander Smith suffered a broken rib
in fall from a culver on the flying
field. However, he accompanied his
companions on the flight to Allahabad,
Ats miles distant The flyers had lit
tie or no difficulty in Cochin, China,
where they followed the coast line, but
they could not avoid the jungles east
of Delhi. Here for seven hours, ac-
cording to story by Lieutenant Wade,
the aviators flew over the tree tops,
| fighting the winds and were able to
see plainly the wild beasts below. On
one occasion, he said, tiger was seen
and he could have shot him if he had
gun.
The next day 480 miles brought
them to Aleppo, Syria, and on June
10 they winged it approximately 600
miles to reach Constantinople.
A day out of the planes was taken
in Constantinople and then successive
day flights of 800 and $50 miles each
landed them in Vienna July Is, an
over night stop having been made at
Bucharest and a short stop at Buda-
pest enroute to Vienna. The flyers
went July IA from Vienna to Paris,
a distance of $50 miles. In the French
capital they received one of the most
enthusiastic welcomes of the trip and
after day proceeded to London
where stay of ten days was scheduled
to prepare the machines for the hop
across the Atlantic.
From London the schedule arranged
to bring the aviators to the Atlantic
coast of the North American continent
included stops at Hull, Englandy then
a jump of $40 miles to Kirkwall in
the Orkney Islands one of 275 to Thor
shawn, Farce Islands; thence to Horn
afford, Icelapd, 260 miles; to Reykja-
vik, Iceland, 339 miles; to Angmagsa-
Xix, Greenland, the most northerly
point touched in the Atlantic, 500
miles; to Ivigtut, Greenland, 500 miles
and to Indian Harbor, Labrador, 572
miles.
The remainder of the trip took the
flyers to Cartwright Harbor, Labrador
40 miles, thence to Hawkes. Bay
Newfoundland, 200 miles, and on to
Pictou Harbor, Nova Scotia, APO miles

.UNoFFICIALn STERILIZATION.

The Preparations program worked out by the
unofficial committee of experts, and now agreed
upon at the Republican Conference, owes it's
great success to the fact that all the work done
was unofficial and nonpolitical.
For months committee of the most able
American financiers and practical business men
labored in Europe to work out program to re-
store European stability, but disconnected from
the government of the United States
international cooperation and application of
business principles had to be employed because
there were divisions of opinion in both polite
al parties and powerful factions opposed to any
participation by our country officially in Euro
pean affairs.
The Preparations program had to be work
ed out on financial and economic lines, with a
plan so wise, clear, strong and practical that it
could afterwards be put into operation and car
ried through over period of years by any
administration that might be in power in any
of the countries directly interested

Republican and Democratic organizations par
ticipated in this unofficial, non-governmental
expert committee and the agreement reached

IMMEL GETS NASTY.

It is announced from Madison that the Adj
iutant General of the State National Guard has
announced that he will remove from office any
commanding officer who permits his men to
take part in the Defense Day parades. The Adj
iutant General is the fellow who rides about in
high powered automobile, and most of the
people who have studied conditions believe that
he gets most of his influence from the fact
that he is a close friend of the governor.
Blaine is one of the three governors in the
United States who has not decided to have his
state represented in the Defense Day plans.
Of course thousands and tens of thousands of
people in the United States do not agree with
the governor on the stand he has taken, and
agree less with the adjutant general who is in
sisting on showing his authority.
Practically every member of the National
Guard unit in Kenosha is ready and anxious
to turn out in this parade and show that he be-
lieves that the nation should take an inventory
of it's stock in trade for defense. That they
should be prevented from making such a show
ing is a matter which should arouse great in
dignation among the people of Kenosha and the
rest Of the state 1t is enough of disgrace
to have governor and an adjutant general out
of step with the rest of the nation, and 1T
should not be their desire to force all other
patriotic men to get out of step under threat
of removing commissions.
The people are interested in knowing just
what kind of troop there is at Kenosha. They
and not the governor are paying the taxes by
which this troop is supported. These men are
certainly Individual citizens of the nation and
as such they should have perfect right to
show their patriotism by marching in this
parade.
We are not in favor of melting mutiny among
members of the National Guard. We realize the
fact that it is the duty of military officer to
obev the orders of his superior officers but it is
a matter of deep regret that these patriotic
men should be forced to serve under such Off
GERS.
It is just another one of the things which
indicate that Wisconsin should have house
cleaning and get rid Of socialist politics at Mad
ison and replace it with some real patriotic
Americanism.

REsPONsIBLE.

Nervous or malicious auto drivers
curse confused walkers who get in
their way. They forget that the pc
destrian has other cars to dodge every
day-hundreds of them.
The pedestrian must be cautious, as
we'll as the driver, that's common
sense. But the driver has the lions
share of responsibility, the same as
the hunter. The man with the in
strument of injury or death-a hunt
ing rif1e-should be many times as
careful as the outsider wearing a red
hat so he won't be shot for deer.
So with autos.

added to the list of seven original
jokes. How many violators escape en-
tirely? Hundreds of thousands or mil
lions? The nets still are spread too
much for minnows, not enough for

Every car owner should have his vi
sion examined before giving him Ii
cense. Also, he should be tested for
sanity and quick decision. A half-blind,
nervous or low-intelligence driver is
apt to be as dangerous as speed
maniac with callous conscience and
hard heart.
The auto is as dangerous as load
ed pistol, unwisely handled.
