WASHINGTON, Oct. 2I.-Ex-Sec-
rotary Of the Interior Albert B.
Fall had the reputation of a re-
morseless boss in his day. Undoubt-
eddy he has crushed many a better
man than himself, as he is crushed
now, in turn.
But he's squashed so flat! So
flat
Granting that he deserves il all,
it's TO pity him, nevertheless.
Fall had all the externals Of a
fine, outstanding old frontiersman

Washington from New Mexico ~

conduct which were just beginning 90
pile UP against him then-somewhat
harassed, but full of fight.
He was still a great parsonage.
An ex-senator, an ex-cabinet mem
Ter, influential, respected, everybody
rave him the benefit Of every doubt.
He had plenty of friends-powerIui
ones.
Now, aged, broken and sick, he ap-
pears on the scene Of his former
greatness TO stand trial on a criminal
caarge, as a mere adjunct to the de-
Tense Of the multimillionaire Harry
Sinclair who, caring nothing for him,
simply happens to be unable to ward
n prison sentence off from himself
without incidentally warding one off
from Fall, too.

tribunal-even though he escapes a

plying. He doesn't get many ever
Of those. He isn't a desirable person
for a politician to have known.

bench to enforce his own DEGREES

came TO Washington, he stood ready
to take the field In person In the
event Of an armed clash with Mexico,
and nobody questioned that he had
the nerve.

The World and All
A FINAL SAFETY FACTOR
BY Charles r. Driscoll

When nine men jumped out Of a big airplane in
eighteen seconds. and all landed safely. there was a
demonstration Of q final safety factor for passenger
planes.
AR liners viii have to carry parachutes for pas
sengers, just as ocean liners carry life preservers.
Airplanes do not fall very often. When they do
fall they make an awful crash, and there is still novel
ty enough IN such an accident TO attract a great deal
Of attention. The average railway passenger probably
still is a bit p~lane-shy.
Travel in airplanes. in all weathers and over all
kinds Of earth and water, will become much safer than
travel in automobiles when the helicopter Is perfected
and adopted for general use. when a plane can hover
at q standstil in the air, and rise and alight vertically,
AIR travel will be the safest kind Of transportation.
Meantime, there will be much airborne passenger
traffic. And flying travellers will have to become ac-
custOmed 70 the idea Of using a parachute in extreme
emergencies.
II won't be exactly pleasant to jump out Of . ship
az an altitude Of q thousand feet. and trust to the
parachute to get you safely to earth. But then. it isn't
pleasant to jump off an ocean liner in mid-ocean and
trust 10 a life preserver or a rubber raft to get you
safely 70 shore, either.
Not many Passengers have ever had to resort to
life preservers in the cold salt water. But when the
ship has disappeared under the waves. those who have
been fortunate enough to get a life preserver have felt
themselves tremendously in luck. Laws provide that
there must be life preservers, in good condition, on
e'elS Sssehger-earrylng boat, and plenty OF them TO
90 around. When flying gets itself into the statute
books in earnest, there will be provisions for para
chutes, the life preservers az the air liners. and all pas
sengers will have 70 know how 70 use them.
As a matter Of fact. the parachute leap from an
airplAne seems to be about As safe 8 a trip in an ele-
vator IN any tall building. When we become aecustom-
ed TO ~airplane travel, our passenger planes will be re-
CURED TO travel At a high altitude, which is a primary
safety factor. And in the final emergency. when and
IL IL comes, passengers will jump to safety.

sgd Chaplin, who brings "Old Bill"
of the famous stage play 1.-The Bet
ter ole" to the screen, is said to
have the perfect Characterization of
the famous role of Capt. Bruce
Bairnsfathers famous drawings.
Bairnsfather is one of the remark
able young men whose talent was
brought out in the great war. AS a
young man he had the average lay
mans appreciation of art. 1t had
been his ambition to become an cleo
trical engineer and he was almost to
realize this hope when the war burst
forth. Shortly after his enlistment
he was in the British trenches.
Little did he dream that the care
less sketches he made to kill time
would one day change the entire ten
or of his life. His first sketch sent
to a London paper brought a check
for fifteen dollars. In a year the
sketches were bringing as much as
$4,000 apiece.
Then came request that he write
a vaudeville sketch and somehow he
managed to turn it out. 1t made a
hit. Another vaudeville act followed
and then the full length play which
became THE Better 'Oe."
Mr.. Bairnsfather's Vitaphone per-
Torrance consists of a chalk talk in
which the artist shows how Old Bill
came into being. a..
THE Better ole" will be in view
all next week at the Circle.

All his life he had devoted himself to Italy.

Depew can look back on a greater

revolution that means far more by

That revolution was brought about
by a swift expansion of knowledge

Jack Norworth and Carl Arm
strong furnish a good example in the
contrast of stage comedy.
Norworth is essentially the clown.
Always very active and generally do
ing the unexpected thing. When he
plays a piano he nearly wrecks it
until he gets down to business.
There is a man in his company
who must walk on the stage many
times so that Norworth can rip his
collar off and his shirt. Norworth
talks with the audience all the time.
He is racing around at high speed
all of the time.
On the other hand, Carl Armstrong

Narrow Vision

To all appearances, New York and
nearby sections are much more in
terested in the Snyder-Gray trial
than in the destructive rampage of
mid-western waters. Perhaps it
means more to New York and near
by sections. Perhaps, on the other
hand, such a readiness to get ex-
cited over local sensations and such
indifference to far-away tragedies
has a bearing on our political situa-
ton.
When it comes time to nominate
presidential candidates, especially
the Democratic presidential candi-
date, New York may feel the result
of such an attitude without realiz-
ing it.

Markings of Issues

There are many causes of political
alignment in this country that we
scarcely realize, much less take seri-

play a bigger part than those we
talk about as all.important.
Most politicians assumed that the
religious issue would determine Gov.
ernor Smiths fate. They are now
beginning to suspect that the prohi.
bition issue cuts even deeper fig

are likely to discover that suspicion
