That Vivian had paid it back in
full by her exciting ride through
the stormy night did not enter her
mind. All the fuss yer her flight
embarrassed her. What else could
she have done? Any n would
have done the same if they could.
That was her reaction every time
it was mentioned to her.
Dovie and mamma left the next
day. A week later temporary shell
tiers had been erected and life in
Bender was moving on almost nor
mally. Pat and Mann had been
released from kitchen duty, and the
injured, all except Celeste, were
well on the road to recovery.
1t was on the day that Kent and
Vivian found themselves alone in
the little cottage for the first time
that to Kent Johns came the most
staggering blow of his life. 1t was

Hornsby and the Record

A doub1e-barreI bill providing for a four-cent gal
Ionage tax and a SO per cent slash in motor vehicle
license fees was sent to the governor. 1t was a SEN
ate bill accepted by the house. It was enacted by the
senate at an early hour Sunday morning. Senators
who held that the bill was unconstitutional succeeded
in breaking a quorum for several hours. AS a last
resort they fled, from the capitol building. Three or
four were located and brought in by the sergeant-at-
arms or his assistants.
Sen. John w. Hornsby was an absentee. He had
Z notified the president Of the senate and friends Of
the double-barrel bill that he could be reached at his
home whenever it was necessary for decsipe action.
He was phoned at the hour Of midnight and he re-
sponded. Sen. Hornsby doubted the constitutionality
Of the bill. He was opposed to linking the license re-
duction tax bill and the gasoline tax proposal to-
gether.
Regardless Of this, after a quorum had been estab-
lished he voted with the majority and made it posi-
bis for the enactment of the very important measure.
= Il said this Travis county senator has never missed
roll call at the regular or the special sessions. There
IS a four-cent gasoline tax. There is a so per cent
reduction in the license motor tax, and place it in
the record that the vote Of Hornsby made it possible.
There will be a special session next winter-a very
important special session. A report will be submitted
by the prison location commission and those who pro-
Tess to know say that an income tax measure and a
bill for the supervision Of public utilities will be sub
mitted by the governor to the lawmakers.

Flying Important to Valley

/eviation. activities of aviators and development of
Commercial flying service-these things constitute al
most a third of the news of the day.
Every city newspaper now maintains an aviation
editor, something that was unheard Of only a few
years ago.
In other words, this is the flying age and all peo-
pie are interested in flying.
This news is Of particular Importance to BroWns-
vile and the Valley.
Barney" zimmerley, Brownsville to-Winnipeg
nonstop flier, was asked why he had picked Browns
vile as the starting point for his flight.
Because it is the furthest point south from which
T could start and fly over entire favorable territory"
was his reply.
He explained by saying that 1t would be possible
to make a forced landing at almost any point on the
route from here to winnipeg.
The advantages of the aerial route from here into
Central and South America already have been point
ed out by such authorities as Col. Charles A. Lind
bergh, Trubee F. Dawson, Capt. Ira G. Eaker and
others.
That is why aviation and aviation news has an
especial appeal to Brownsville and all the Valley.
This section is destined to become one Of the most
important points in aerial transportation. George L.
Rihl. president Of the Mexican Aviation Co, expresses
the belief that more passengers will be handled by
air lines operating south of here than travel the
route south from Miami. And remember that south
of Miami is Cuba, which draws hundreds of wealthy
tourists from Florida.
The very nature Of the terrain both north and
south assures a majority of the aerial business be-
tween North and South America will pass this way.
But aviation activities have another interest for
business men and all citizens Of the Valley.
In the past, distance from market centers and
from centers Of population has been a serious draw
back In the development Of this section. AS flying
becomes more general and as more persons are trav-
cling by plane this handicap will be reduced to a
minimum.
What is the difference whether the person to whom
you are writing lives In st. Louis or Chicago If a let
ter reaches both cities on the morning Of the same
day?
II a capitalist can fly to the Valley and inspect a
property IN which he is thinking Of investing and re-
turn TO his home in one day or two at the most, then
he no longer can plead that he hasn't time to visit
this section.
These things and many more indicate the Valley
will occupy an important place In the world Of avia-
ton.

Washington Letter
BY HERBERT c. PLUMMER

WASHINGTON, July 6-Contrary to the popular
conception, aides to the president of the United States
do more than pass sandwiches at White House teas
and attend state functions in snowy gold-braided
uniforms.
They do attend White House teas. Their snowy
uniforms do add "swank" to state occasions.
But what the average person forgets is that all of
this outward show takes place latter hours"-after
the aide has done a days work at his office attend
ing to the routine Of army and navy business that has
been assigned him.
AS a matter of fact, the dozen or more men who
serve the president in the capacity of aides are among
the most ~overworked men in Washington. And they
get no extra pay. Even the elaborate uniforms are
paid for out Of their own pockets.
Only a casual visit to the offices Of these men i
sufficient to prove that they do more than idle away
their time.
Col. Campbell B. Hodges for the present Is tucked
away in an office at the state, war and navv buiId
ing attending to infantry business. He is the military
aloe TO the president. Within a short while he and
Capt. Allen Buchanan, the naval aide, are soon to
have desks at the executive offices of the White
House.

OF the chief OF cavalry, where he serves as informa-
ton officer.

Lieut.. Hugh B. Waddell acts as aide to the chief
OF staff of the army during the day.
Lieut.. John E. Ppston has a desk in the office Of
the chief Of the army air corps, and when his time
IS not taken up there he is hopping across the coun-
try on army business.
In the office of the quartermaster general. Lieut..
Don E. Lowry spends his day handling transportation
matters.
Lieut.. Comdr. John E. Ostrander of the navy is in
charge of the armament section of the aviation di-

Lieut.. <. M. Hoeffel handles fuel expenditures for
the navy in the division of fleet training.
