They have to be to keep traffic flowing

Actions such as these two are accused

conceives himself to be the master of

The Radio Changes

The Federal Radio Commission toda,
! announced Its new ALLEGATION plan, thc
most drastic curative it has vet admin
lstered to the Nations hroadcasting ills
Weshington's four active stations. along
with nearly all others in the country
were Included in the uphaaval.
WRC. the Capitals major station. will
be moved down the broadcastinc chan
mel from 46S.5 TO 3l5.S meters. but. for.
tunately. its power and service are not
to be curtsiled. WMAL has been as
signed better wave band. but it will
suffer through reduction Of power and
division OF its time on the air with a
station in Wilmington. Del. WRHF also
has been hurt to some extent bv a
much lower wave assignment. and
WTFF's band has been raised slightly
but 1t will be required to share broad
casting time with a 5,0o0-watt broad
caster in St Paul
The new ALLEGATION has been in tho
process of development for year. and.
in the Judgment of the commission and
its engineers. will place radio reception
on higher plane than it ever before
onjoved. The effect of such a dras-
tic change in broadcasting conditions.
however, cannot be. accurately meas
ured until the new frequency assign
ments become effective and broadcast

period.
While the commission has failed to
recognize Washington as national
broadcasting center. placing wRC in
the category of a regional" instead of
national station, it nevertheless
yielded to popular demand and allowed
this station full time.
There Is no reason why WRC's new
frequency should not give satisfactory
service in the District and the territory
in Maryland and Virginia that it is de-
signed to serve under the new scheme.
The 3156-meter channel is the same
used for the last several years by
KDKA. the worlds pioneer broadcast
ing station. and it appeared to be en-
tirely satisfied with this assignment.
1t is regretted, however. that the COM
mission could not have devised some
plan to permit WMAL to broadcast full
time This is strictly local station,
which has devoted its efforts to broad
casting the best entertainment that can
be found among Washington talent It's
absence from the air at least three
nights week will be keenly missed.

one pair of rats can reproduce 500
rats in l8 months. and all will become
infected.
Now ships are built ratproof. so that
although rats may get aboard they cam
not rambie around. hence. as one medi-
cal authority expresses it they are con-
! fronted with the high cost of living for
rats. an acute housing problem and
poor transportation from their market
supplies to their nests. A ship with no
rats cannot carry the plague The same
principle of building houses will de-
stroy rats and eliminate many diseases
Yet for the last 30 years the plague has
been travelling over the world without
stopping. and has killed no less than

that of Washington today. Yet. in spite
OF the advancement of science. the
| pandemic plague. which is said to have
started in Hongkong in 1894, is still at
work
The enormity of the 10000. 900 deaths
from plague in India may be compared
with the serious epidemic of influenza
which appalled, America in 1918. The
total deaths in the United States that
year from influenza are officially stated
by the United States Public Health
Service to have been not more than
100000, while a similar epidemic in
1920 took another 100000. This year
there are few cases of influenza either
In America or Europe. But scientific
research has little to its credit as to the
cause or the treatment of that dread
disease. Soviet Russia has $4,000 cases
OF influenza this year. and there is an
influenza epidemic in China.
On the other hand. medical science
continues to perform miracles. For in
stance. leprosy. which in biblical days
and for centuries later was considered
an incurable curse. is now reckoned
| among the durable diseases. and
whereas IN early times it was supposed
[ that the mere touch of a leper would

A Splendid Performance.

Although Earl Rowland of Wichita,
Kans.. who has been unoficislly de-
clarad the winner of the Glass A race
of the United States Air Derby from
New York to Los Angeles. with an
elapsed time of twenty-six hours and
thirty minutes. deserves credit for his
achievement, the important part of the
competition Just completed as far as
the public is concerned is the Splendid
performance of the small-powered air.
planes. Thirty-seven planes took the
air from New York Twenty-Five
flashed over the finish line yesterday
in Los Angeles. And although some OF
the planes which did not complete the
fight made forced landings under dan
gerous conditions. the race was entirely
free from casualties.
It was a notable demonstration of the
progress OF aviation in the United
States. The small ships. driven by en-
gines of one hundred and ten horse
power and less. and many of them
CARRYING two persons, met every test
that was demanded of them. Over
rugged and forbidding mountain ranges,
where a high ceiling was necessary to
get through, and over desert and plain.
with Temperatures of one hundred de-
grees and more, where cool running
motor was essential to success. the
planes never faltered.
For the first time in the development
of flying the public was given an oppor-
tunity to watch group performance
of small ships. Fifteen of them drop
ped out. 1t is true. but not all of
them because of serious trouble. Even
in automobile racing, with the present.
day perfection Of the motor car, 1t is
seldom that any large percentage OF
the entrants complete the contest. In
this competition. however, involving a
three -thousand-m cross country flight
practically two-thirds of the contest
ants crossed the finish line.
Furthermore. every plane In the race
was strictly stock" In other words
the identical ships which have just
shown their mettle can be bought by
the public from the manufacturers. 1t
is assuredly cause for satisfaction that
the United States is taking its right
full place in the development of the
airplane. big and small, to which it
gave birth

| Mr. Oogle has Arm belief in the
chastity of women. Let any one so
much as whisper against one Of them,
no matter who or what she be. he
foams at the mouth and constitutes
himself her Sir Galahad. Perhaps the
lady in question would wonder to see
this utter strange foaming at the mouth
in her defense.
Every one must wonder why he does
, it, What is she to him? This terrible
tenderness for others bespeaks an un-
easy mind. warning state brought
about by doubt of ones self, mingled
with the high ego of the average human
being.
He who resents 1t when some one
finds fault with some third person had
what it is in him that does the resent
ing. Life is too big proposition for
any one person to handle.
| The play of all life against lives is
utterly outside the proper scope of any
one man or any one woman. The
thoughts that A shall have about B
are different from what C shall have
about B. and neither A nor c is in
any position to say that the other is
wrong In thinking as he does.
If there are factors which one person
does not know and which 1t might be
well for him to know, equally there are
points unknown to others which 1t
might be good for them to know
d! In all question of human relations
the open mind is best. To feel a stand
ardizcd resentment when some one
criticizes some one else-not ones self
Is to go out of ones way to quarrel.
1t must be remembered that there is a
nageing sort OF quarreling as we'll as
an out-and-out wrangling. 1t is hard
to say which ia the worst.
We believe in criticism.

face of praise"
The world has plenty of room for the
'gripers," the fault-finders. those who
insist on exercising their divine right
to see both the good and the bad as
they see it.
What is more divine in a world where
progress is development. where de-
velopment is progress. than this ability
and determination to see what one sees
and to express the findings in words?
If this honest expression sometimes
strikes others as out Of place or carping
in nature. let them remember that
King George II had a similar opinion
of George Washington and that his
tory has held him to have been terribly
in error

in which one person sees some tints and
another other shades and hues. So
| long as honesty is at the bottom of the
selection, 1t Ill behooves either one to
inveigle against the other for his
choice.
If there is flaw in one facet and
all beholders insist on overlooking it.
how is the globe to become perfect?
Who can mold 1t nearer to the hearts
desire until a free man sees the fault
and dares say, There it is! Some
thing is wrong there?
He who would merely answer "Oh.
you should not find so much fault"
would merely hold back perfection. be-
cause he has an innate desire to be
/ contrary. His slant for non-criticism
! is as hostile to improvement as would
be that of one who never found any,
thing to praise.
