IN CHARACTER,
SAYS MINISTER
Visiting Pastor breaches
on "RebuiIding the
World"

"a mans creed will be counted
worthless If it fails to get into the
character and conduct" said DIR.

ing at the Woodruff Place United

DIR. Crow in speaking on RE
Building the World Alright" asked:
Do we not recognize that this old
world must be built Alright educa-
tionally? Educational institutions
must be standardized into the serv-
Ice of humanity"
"And does 4 it not seem proper"
DR.. Crow asked. that this feverish.
restless old world must be built
Alright religiously? The golden rule
of Christ must actually rule the rul-
ers of men.
Needs, not creeds. is after all the
ideal of an ideal Christianity. The
autocratic ruler in high places must
be Stunned as men would shun a
deadly serpent.
"Italy's Mussolini will likely see
the necessity of this as well as his
italian subjects.
THE gospel of good will must be
practiced by the people who hear
the preacher preach. and the preach
er and ruler must practice 1t as we'll!
1.-THE preacher viii be respected,
perhaps ever revered. but he must
be the brotherly servant of men and
no sort of 'ex-cathedra' superman.
1.-THE only superman is the Saviour
of men," DR.. Crow said.

Some Senators, including Richard

Il don't see how it will be proper,

PLANE CRASH LAID
/. TO BLIND ANGLES
Inability of Pilots 10 See in
All Directions Blamed in
Death of Four.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RANTOUL, Ill, December 25.-In-
ability of an airplane pilot to get more
than a limited view from his cockpit
of the air ahead of his machine was
recognized as a hazardous element in
flying by military board of inquiry
after investigating the mid-air COLI
sion of two planes over Chanute Field
Wednesday, in which four flying Of
1icers were killed.
The board concluded that when the
two ships came together almost head
on, 400 feet above the field. each pilot
was unable to see the other machine
because they approached lat blind
angles.
Danger Pointed Out.
Officers pointed out that the in
ability of a pilot to see in all direc-
tons long had called for great caution
in flying when two or more planes
were in the air. Many a time pas
SengerS in the rear cockpit have been
asked to keep an eye out for planes
from other directions because the rear
seat offers a better view of the sur
roundings from different angles than
the pilots seat Occasionally, they
said, collisions have been averted by
warnings from passengers.
The evidence indicated that possibly
Lieut.. Ralph l.. Lawter of Hunting
ton. w. Va. caught sight a second be-
fore the crash of the other plane,
flown by Lieut.. Henry kunkel of Co
lumbia, Mo-, but not in time to swing
clear.
Maj William McChord, who headed
the board of inquiry, pointed out that
the problem of blind angles" is to
aviation the same problem which
motor car manufacturers faced a few
years ago, when closed cars came into
vogue with tops, the supports of
which kept the driver from seeing
cars approaching from some angles
at intersections.
Funeral Services Held.
With military honors, officers and
men of Chanute Field conducted
funeral services yesterday for the four
officers in the gymnasium at the field,
converted into a chapel on the day
when it was to have been the scene of
a Christmas eve fete.
After the services the bodies of
Lieuts. Lawter and Kunkel were
placed on a train to be taken to
Arlington Cemetery. The body of
Capt. Harold Foster will be buried in
Chicago, his home, and that Of Lieut..
Albert j. Clayton at West Phila-
