CIVIL AIR. BOARD
ADVOCATED
FOR j. s.
Bureau Would Promote and
Regulate Commercial
Flying Lines.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 5.-R)-
Creation of a bureau Of civil aero,
nautics in the Department Of Com.
mcrce with broad powers to regulate
and promote all civil and commercial
flying in the United States, forms the
central recommendation of the COM
mittee on civil aviation which was
appointed by the department and the
American Engineering Council last
June to make an exhaustive study OF
the question.
The committee, Of which j. Walter
Drake. assistant secretary of com.
merce, is chairman, declares the pos
sibilities which it sees for the devel-
opment of commercial aviation in the
United States can be realized only
through definite and continuing pro-
gram of government assistance for the
industry. The lack of this and of a
definite legal status and government
control for the industry, it found.
have been the chief causes for its fail
ure to keep pace with the develop
ment in Europe.
In addition to its function of regu-
lating air navigation, including licens.
ing of pilots and inspection of planes,
the proposed bureau would be au-
thorized to develop, establish, or take
over and maintain air routes and air
navigation facilities"
The provision of essential air navi-
CATION facilities, such as properly
marked air-ways for both day and
night flying and emergency and ter
minal landing fields, the committee
holds to be public responsibility"
In the legislation to create the pro-
posed bureau, it was recommended
that there be other provisions TO put
air navigation on the same footing as
to legal requirements as other forms
of transportation. The committee en-
dorsed these and other purposes of
the bill which was favorably reported
at the last session by the commerce
committee Of the House.

NEW PROHIBITION DEAL

Colonel Andrews, the new prohibi- tion chief, has instituted a drastic shake-up in the enforcement branch of the service, whereby federal activ. ities will be more centralized and more systematically prosecuted, ac- cording to recent announcements from Washington.
 One of the important innovations said to be contemplated in this con- nection is the divorcement of prohibi- tion officials from politics. This is in itself tremendous task, as it will inevitably have the opposition of many senators and congressman who have political friends already on the payroll, with many others on the waiting list.
 Under the political system of ap- pointments, the inefficiency and cor. ruption of enforcement officials has become notorious. Not that all of them are inefficient or corrupt, but because so many have fallen short of what was expected of them that discredit has been cast upon the en-

ROUMANlAN WAR LOSS

When we think of the World war, we instictively think of the losses of men and property sustained by France and Belgium Perhaps no one thinks of the part played by lit tie Rumania.
 But listen to this: While French deaths were 16 per cent of troops engaged and Belgian deaths were only trifle over per cent. Ruman- ian losses showed the tragic and pit iful total of 45 per cent of fatalities.
 Rumania had under arms 750,OO0 men, of whom 335,7O6 were killed or died of disease, while 120,OOO more were wounded, making her a total casualty of dead and wounded a frac- tion over 60 per cent.
 In striking contrast is the record of the United States, with only one and one-half per cent of dead and less than four and one-half per cent of wounded, the lowest of any nation engaged in the war.
 The total number of United States troops mobiliZed was less than 12 per cent of the total engaged on the side of the allies and of these less than one-half ever reached the bat tlfields.

A MODEST DICTATOR

General Primo de Rivera, who has been for many months military dic- tator of Spain, with the acquiescence of King Alfonso, appears to have re- tained a modest estimate of his own achievements, in spite of the great power he has exercised during the military regime.
 Upon General Rivera's return from Morocco few weeks ago. his ad- mirers in Ceuta and Madrid planned a demons tration in his honor, but he vetoed the idea-for reasons set forth in a telegram to the mayor of Mr. drid, which in part was as follows:
 T beg of you not to consider such an untimely proposal. The respon- abilities I assumed when I undertook to govern the country are still far from being fulfilled. If I succeed, the recognition of that success by the nation and by the king is the only adequate reward; if I should fail, then neither grandeeship nor decora- tion would console me for the con- tempt of my country"
 This is the declaration of true patriot and comes from a powerful contemporary figure, whose accomp- lishments in the face of surpassing difficulties give promise. of a better future for Spain.

EVOLUTION TRIAL IN 1884.

Few persons probably know or re- member that in 1884 famous evolution trial" took place in the United States, in which Rev. James Woodrow, for whom his nephew, Woodrow Wilson, was named, was the defendant.
 Such is the case, however, and the trial attracted almost as much atten- tion in educational and theological circles as did the trial of Prof. Scopes in Tennessee.
 Dr. Woodrow was at the time a professor in the South Carolina Col lege and Theological Seminary at Columbia, S. O., Presbyterian school, where he gave courses in natural sciences as related to divine revelation.
 In the course of his lectures it de- veloped that Dr. Woodrow presented the Darwinian doctrine of evolution in such a manner as to conflict with orthodox teachings supported by the book of Genesis, so the fundamental ists of that day had him tried and convicted of heresy.
 His nephew, Woodrow Wilson, who was later to become President of Princeton University and twice Presi- dent of the United States, was indig- nant over the result of the trial, as were the other leading scientific men

tire enforcement service.
 It is also announced that more at tention will be paid to the larger of fenders-manufacturers, smugglers, and wholesale dealers-while less ef- fort will be devoted to the petty bootleggers whose activities are only made possible by the operations of the big violators
 Effects of the new policies will be watched with interest by both friends and foes of the Volstead law.
Seward daily gateway., 1925-07-23

Yet, it can not be denied that the timely arrival of the American sol diers turned the tide against the Central Powers and our relatively small force, combined with the tre- mendous moral effect of our entry into the war, was the deciding factor in the greatest struggle the world has ever seen.

of the country.
 The conviction was reversed later by the higher Presbyterian authori- ties, so Dr. Woodrow was reinstated and afterward served as president of the State College until his retire ment in 1897. He died in 1907.
