WANTSL|NDBERGH

Representative Bloom Sug-

If Services Are Unified.
Declaring that Col. Charles A. Lind

Declaring that Col. Charles A. Lind
bergh would make an ideal first
Secretary Of the Air, Representative
Bloom of New York announced TO-DAY
his intention of introducing bill at
the opening of the next Congress to
establish a separate Department of the
Air, under which all Government ava
ton activities, commercial, military
and naval, would be co-ordinated.
Col. Lindbergh has been called to
Washington to confer with high OIL
Gals of the Army. Navy ana the Com
merce Department, and it is under
stood that among the matters up for
discussion is something in line with
Mr. Blooms proposed bill. While Col
Lindbergh is here the District Commits
sioners hope, too, that he will be able
to advise them regarding the estab-
lishment of an airport in the National
Capital.
Expects Support in Congress.
Mr.. Bloom will have considerable
support in the next Congress for any
bill looking to the creation of De
partment Of the Air. A number of
such measures were pending when the
last session closed. Representative
Bloom believes Col. Lindbergh is the
logical appointee, should Congress de-
eide to establish a new department.
Deploring a lack of airport and air
passenger facilities in America, Mr..
Bloom declared that there we are
splitting hairs and wasting time and
money in overlapping Army. Navy
and other air services, while European
countries have unified their air serv-
ices and in commercial aviation have
established a network of passenger
lines.
"a Department Of the Air at Wash
ington would coordinate the air power
of America. 1t would bring the use
Of the air to its greatest advantage,
both governmentally and commercial
ly. 1t would provide an orderly, CO.
herent, economical administration on
the part of the Government. encourag-
ing the development of aviation as a
whole without jurisdictional friction or
delays in cooperation or duplication
of effort and scope of activities.
The measure he. intends laying be-
fore Congress. Mr.. Bloom said. will
provide for Secretary of the Air, TAX
ing equal rank with other members
Of the cabinet. The department under
his charge would perform all the air
duties now assigned to the War, Navy.
Post Office and Commerce Depart
ments or any other agencies, and
would supersede the National Advisory
Committee for Aeronautics.

What Other Editors Think

hard on her amusement-loving
sisters. Every community knows
it's women who waste much time
in frivolity, but the great mass of
women is still mighty busy with
the multifariouS affairs Of the
household or vies with men in the
business and professional worlds.
1t is true that candlemaking,
sheep shearing and cloth weaving
Of the old days have been removed
from the homes, and so has the
family washing in many. Electric
appliances and all kinds of con-
veniences make household tasks
less burdensome, but the millions
of loyal housewives still have
enough duties to make a man gasp
if he were faced with doing them.
AS to amusements, women are just
as much entitled to their whist
and teas as the men are to their
poker and golf.
IT am for the women" said Vice
President Dawes at Chicago when
he Endorsed Mrs. Ruth Hanna Nc
Cormick as candidate for Con-
gress. IT recognize their sincerity.
When it comes to making mis-
takes, I think the men can give
the women cards and spades"
1t is doubtful if there is any
difference at all between men and
women when it comes to measur-
ing he degree in which they as
sumo life's responsibilities.

Some Humor Left
9 is some humor left in life.

There is some hum0r leIL IN LIes
Congress opens and with it comes the an
nouncement that the Junior Senator from In
diana. Arthur R. Robinson, will object to gen.
tlemen by the names of Ware and Smith taking
the oath of office to sit in the greatest de-
Lucrative body"
The senior senator thinks they should be
allowed to enter and then be kicked out.
The Nation knows the facts. Vast sums OF
money were spent in primaries and elections to
secure the seats in the Senate. In Pennsylvania
the money spent for Ware ran into an astound-
ING sum. In Illinois Smith was the head OF the
public service commission which regulated
rates of light and gas and street railway fares
and got his donations from Samuel insult, not
unknown to Indiana.
Nor has Mr.. insult been exactly politically
inactive in this State. He has sent his high
priced lawyers to the Legislature to see that
the regularly elected members of the State As
sembly did not get too radical in passing laws
that might have secured some measure of real
regulation of utilities.
He has worked, perhaps not personally, but
through his local managers, very closely with
the political machine which has brought In
diana politics into something of national IN
terest.
The campaign funds Of the victorious party
have been swelled by his direct or indirect con-
tributions.
IF there were needed any other factor to
make the virtuous stand Of the Indiana Sena-
tors more emphatic, it is furnished by the re-
port of the special prosecutors for the local
grand jury.
Some weeks ago, long enough for news Of
it to have reached the Senators, they reported
that the 'BIAck Boxes" Of Stephenson had con-
tanned contracts with two members Of Con-
gress under which these members bartered In
advance of their election in 1924 all the patron
age which is distributed through members Of
the Congress in return for the support OF the
famous life term guest Of Indiana.
These Senators, if they desired, might have
enough influence with the Indiana delegation
in the lower body to suggest that such contracts
were quite as vicious as the money contrlbu-
tions Of insult to the disgrace OF Illinois and
Pennsylvania and that the good name OF In
diana could be cleared by drastic action against
these two members who signed away their
freedom of action in order to get office.
Voting to throw out Ware and Smith and
silence about these members who sold them
selves and their power to Stephenson creates
a rather humorous situation.
The people of Indiana are waiting and wei
probably wait long for some ringing declara-
ton from Senator Robinson demanding that
the good name of this State be cleared and
these two members ousted at once.

Reasonable Radicals

Nothing could be more reasonable than the pro-
posal made to the Republican organization of the
United States Senate by group Of independent Re-
pubcans They ready to assist the regulars" in
the organization of the Senate they say if given as
surance that the organization will provide for vote
during the session these three things:
"A farm relief bill on the basis of the McNary-
Haugen bill.
bill to curb the issuance of iniunctions in labor
disputes.
A resolution for thorough investigation of DIR
policy in latin America.
They do not ask that the organization support
these three things. They ask only that they be al
lowed to come to vote
How the organization refuse to make the
agreement is hard to see. The independents are ask
ing nothing for themselves. They merely want a
promise that the Senate will not dodge three issues
on which the country wants action.
