ELEVATION WORK
TO START SOON

l- HE Pennsylvania railroad, 1t
is announced, may soon
- start the work Of elevating
its tracks between Pine and Cruise
SITS. Plans are completed and APP
proved, and the reconstruction
details will be quickly worked out.
The announcement has fam
iliar ring. Indianapolis track ele-
walton projects are always teeter-
ing on their toes Just ready to
dash ahead. But they never dash;
they limp around in circles.
For two years the Belt line ele-
walton program through the south
side of the city has simmered.
Months ago it boiled energetically.
Actual construction seemed i'm
minent. Then insurmountable OBJ
stacles were encountered-the divi-
sion Of the cost Of the Raymond
st. bridge and this and that detail.
Endless negotiation between city
and railroad authorities ensued.
Eventually differences were
ironed out. 1t was stated that
elevation work would start about
Oct. /.
The ides of October have come
and gone. Have any southsiders
seen the Belt line elevation actual
ly in progress? This scar and vel
low autumn the project seems no
nearer than it did in fragrant May.
The program no doubt is still In
existence, but merely hibernates
in a pigeonhole.
If Indianapolis track elevation
projects continue to exhibit the
same speed they have shown dur
ing the past year, they will be
about as useful to the present gen.

WAR MEMORIAL
PLANS APPROVED

T7ROF. w. K. HAITI, head Of

It discovered that the original
plans specified use of a patented
steel reinforcing in which Walker
& Weeks were financially inter
ested-do not call for an excessive
amount Of material as charged.
Thus another promising public
scandal falls on its face for lack

were submitted. The architects
were charged with everything
from mayhem to infanticide. Their
dismissal and revocation of the In

What was the result?
The license of Harry Weeks, one
of the members Of the firm, was
revoked. An unprejudiced expert
authority approves the plans,
which he believes will give the
State of Indiana a dollars worth
of memorial building for every
dollar expended on the project.
Walker & Weeks are retained as
architects for the memorial. And

How much does It matter how dirty

The health Of a child gets its start

the future is sown. He climbs UP
the ladder of strength, rung by rung,
or he turns out a wealxling when
grown.
The builders most need are sun.

to give too much care, is putin a
crimp in his chance.
Go on, let 'em run in the open and
free. Aw, shucks, let EN- play in
the sands. Just let 'em get dirty as
dirty can be, and smear up their
faces and hands.
There's always warm water and

daily, and then. you'll find they
won't mind It. In fact, they'll be
glad to go and get dirty again.

Blind Party Leaders

Headers of the Democratic party have

hight hope for restoration to power But just
khen such an issue seems to be falling into

The Democratic party is responsible for It, 1t

ave preached for generations: That the

And they are forgetting it just when eco

lem is in greater danger of crumbling in

Tears. The world, heavily in debt to Americas

a Voice From the Dead

(T1HE very next day after losing eighteen
] sea planes in a storm, the United States
up and won the jacques Schneider information
al cup race at Baltimore and incidentally broke
three world speed records to smithereens in so
doing
That after the doughty Col. Billy Mitchell
had been saying that this country had only ten
or dozen planes all told, that were really fit
to fly.
simultaneously, Commander Lansdowne,
of the Inflated Shenandoah, comes back from
the dead long enough to correct few false i'm
presslons concerning him and his big dirigible.
In posthumous article published in the Satur-
day Evening Post, he completely refutes the
idea that he was afraid for his ship.
Mentioning intsance after instance where
the Shenandoah, in its cost-to-coast cruise,
ran the gamut of Astrological phenomena. - he
added: Il mention these instances in order to
dissipate the impression which has existed that
the airship is a fair-weather bird"
1.-The great ariship, he said again, Gin
fated with helium is beyond doubt the safest
method of travel known to man, taking prece-
dence over walking" Continuing he had this
to say:
While In the air the airship is
practically independent of the wealth
err, as storms with attendant high
winds merely delay progress to wind
ward and very materially assist, when
the courses steered are to eeward, by
greatly increasing the airship's
ground speed. Fog interferes little
with navigation, as the airship may, in
nearly all instances, rise above it and
sight land or sea below through riffs
or thin spots in the fog. Severe thun-
derstorms and disturbances with
strong vertical air currents NAV be
avoided by changes Of course, as these
disturbances usually extend over
comparatively small area and move at
rate of speed well below that of an
airship. Thus the airship can avoid
the tornado, and may prove to be more
secure in Kansas than stone house.
Not that aviation in this country is Der
feet, by long odds, or that it, in common with
our national defense machine generally. does
not need Improvement. But our main need is
for facts, not fancy. Tinsel never enhanced
lily. Aviations case is good enough without
exaggerations.
