Despite all the progress America has made In avia-
fon In recent years. the nation cannot vet consider
itself properly prepared in the air. in q military rense.
according to Rear Admiral w. A.. Moffett, chief Of
aeronautics In the u. S. navy.
Admiral Moffett told Culver Military Academy
summer school students the other day that Germany
despite her defeat in the World war. leads the entire
world In aviation, both in expenditures and progress.
He urged an upbuilding OF Uncle Sans aerial defense,
remarking that the navy needs at least four more
modern aircraft carriers.
Probably It Is a surprise 10 most Of us 70 hear that
our military aviation is not yet up 10 standard. There
is one comfort, however; we are undoubtedly making
vast progress. The quick development Of a huge air
force IN time OF war would be a far easier task now
than II was in 1917.

Nehemiah Is one or the most adj
mirable characters Of the Old Tes-
lament, and ore OF the noblest
patriots in any nations history.
Fourteen years after the return of
the captives led By Ezra. and nine
ty-two years after the first con-
tingent had returned from their
captivity in Babylon under the
leadership of Z~erublabel. Nehemiah
heard of the sad state of affairs at
Jerusalem among those who had
previously returned. His heart was
broken by the report Of the desola-
ton still prevailing in the city Of
his fathers: OF Jerusalem's walls
still lying in ruins; its neglected
temple services; and the misery OF
the remnant OF his people who had
returned.
More Than Tears
Nehemiah was in high position
at the court or the Persian king, Ar
taxerxes, and, had he been of q sell
fish disposition. might have contin-
ued to enjoy the ease and luxury Of
his position. But his heart was
heavy with sympathy for his people
and his. native land. and his grief
betrayed his inner longing to the
king. who granted him permission
to return to Jerusalem, and author
ity to rebuild its walls. His SYM
pathy was willing 10 express itself
in sacrificial service and his tears
in trouble.
Faith and Works United
The entire book Of Nehemiah dis
plays a happy union OF faith and
works, of prayer and precaution, Cf
trust and toll, as shown In the re-
currence OF such phrases as these:
$50 / prayed to the God Of heaven
and I said unto the king" I'VE
made our prayer unto our God. and
set a watch against them day and
night" Remember the Lord which
Is great and terrible. and fight for
your brethren. your sons and. your
daughters. your wives and Your
houses" I'm what place We hear the
trumpet. resort We thither unto Us:
our God shall fight for us" Nehe-
miah would have said with Cron-
well. Trust in God and keep your
powder dry" He believed that God
helps those who help themselves.
Before God he was justified by his
faith alone: before men he proved
his faith by his works.

Nehemiah's colossal task OF re-

Washington Letter

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-Far out PENNSYLVANIA
avenue, where the capitals most famous thoroughfare
dips into southern Maryland. lies q small square Of
ground.
There Is nothing about 1t TO command attention.
Somehow one gets the impression that it l. there al
most by accident. Certainly 1t is only the careful OBJ
server who detects the wooden marker that Identifies
the spot as:
"LEnfant square"
This is the only place. other than his grave, that
the famous French architect who planned the ma
tional capital has in the plans Of the city itself. To-
day the body Of Major Pierre LEnfant rests in his
toric Arlington. An honored grave and pomp are his.
But the little square in Anacostia is his only me-
mortal in the city he planned. Congress has been
asked to perpetuate his memory by erecting a monu-
ment, but thus faz the bill has never been passed.
ssss
HONORS
Recognition OF LEnfant's genius by this country
has been slow.
1t was not until 20 years ago-80 years after his
death-that the body Of the famous architect was
reclaimed from a lonely spot on the Riggs farm In
Prince George county Of Maryland and reinterred In
the Arlington national cemetery.
During all that time 1t was unmarked. Only n red
cedar tree. planted at the time Of his death, identified
the grave. It was the Sundry civil bill of 1908. author
izing an appropriation Of $1,000 by congress TO re-
move and render accessible to the public the grave"
that gave this country the opportunity to pay its debt
Of gratitude to the genius and patriotism Of the great
Frenchman.
Excerpts from an old report OF the elimination OF
the body aptly describe the occasion:
"A thunder storm interrupted the operations for 20
minutes after the ground had been broken the
digging Of the grave was continued. in silence, for an
hour or more =.
"A cardinal bird. sitting In a nearby tree, sang al
most continuously during the work at the grave
=. The casket was wrapped In Old Glory -. It
lay in state in the rotunda Of the capitol from Q until
u o'clock. =. Thousands passed around the c~atafalque
on which reposed the casket -"
LARGE
The funeral procession TO Arlington was almost q
mile long. The streets were lined With spectators.
Flags were displayed at half mast. A musician Of the
army engineers sounded taps" LEnfant was given
a soldiers burial 30 years after he had died in poverty.
A gayel was made from the root Of the cedar tree
and presented the Columbia Historical rociety Of
Washington.
For more than 30 years LEnfants plans for the
capital city Of the United States were forgotten. But
today his name lives In all the civilized world.
Under the plans for expansion OF the city Of Wash
inrton. approved only recently by President Hoover.
LFnfant's original ideas are TO be carried out.
The vistas and architectural gems that are even
now under construction were conceived by him when
he first planned the city.
