Lindbergh,s Wise Forecast.

It was quite In character that when
Charles Lindbergh spoke on Friday by
radio In an international broadcast on
aviation his enthusiasm for air trans
portation was tempered with practical
knowledge Of its limitations. Though
predicting great advances in aircraft
development and use, he did not fore
cast the displacement of present
methods by land and sea. His words on
this point should be specifically noted:
The last few years have seen the ex-
tension of airlines over every continent.
The next few will bring tranSoceanic
routes to unite these continental serv-
ices into q network covering the entire
world. To realize the full significance
of this development, however. 1t must
be considered as q part Of the whole
system of modern transportation. For
unless some radical scientific discovery
revolutionizes our present aircraft We
cannot compete with ships and rail-
roads in the movement of most articles
of commerce The airplane augments
rather than replaces ground transport
Its mission is to simplify intercourse be-
tween countries by rapid transportation
of passengers and documents; to bring
lis in closer contact with other people
and to facilitate the negotiations neces-
sarv for mutual understanding and
trade.
It Is to be observed that Lindbergh
accepts the possibility Of some radical
scientific discovery" which will "revo-
lutionize our present aircraft" No one
can foretell the future with assurance
in terms Of mans mechanical equip
ment. Prophets may predict wonders
vet to come, even as have prophets in
the past. Some three centuries ago the
English witch" Mother Shipton, fore
told:
Carriages without horses shall go
And accidents fill the earth with woe.
Around the world thoughts will ny
In the twinkling of an eye;
Through the hills men shall ride
And neither horse nor ass bestride;
Under water men shall walk,
Shall ride. shall sleep, shall talk.
Iron In the water shall float
AS easily as a wooden boat.
This was a forecast Of automobiles,
of telegraph, telephone and radio, of
the submarine and Of the iron ship.
All the wonders Of the present save the
airplane were thus foretold. Lindbergh,
however, does not essay the role Of q
prophet. He puts 1t UP to science to
develop "some radical discovery" that
will enable aircraft to compete with
ships and railroads in the movement of
most articles of commerce. Until then
the airplane will be an augmenting
rather than a replacing facility. He
does see. however, great good to- come
from the increased use Of aircraft for
individual transportation which will
bring us in closer contact with other
people" and make for better under
standing and wider trade.

Tert, II Timothy, liz, "a good soldier
of Jesus Christ"
The essential attributes of a good
soldier are obedience, loyalty and
courage Writing to a young man upon
whose life he had exercised a strong
influence, the great apostle, st. Paul,
admonisheS him, concerning his Chris
tan career, to endure hardness, as a
good soldier of Jesus Christ" 1t was
Characteristic of this apostle to find his
analogies for Christian practice in the
common occupations of daily life. Two
of these that he repeatedly uses have
to do with the athlete, his training and
discipline and the soldier. To his
mind Christian disciplehood suggested
a militant, aggressive and well planned
life service. He says later to his young
disciple, mo man that warreth en-
tangleth himself with the affairs OF
this life. "Entangling alliances" must
prove destructive of reasonable dis
cipline and concentrated endeavor to
obtain definite objective. We wonder
how true to this ancient ideal our
modern view of Christian living is. To
endure hardness means to equip ones
self for severe tests and strains.
The young soldier who entered the
training camp soft and unprepared was
put through exacting exercises ana re-
quired to observe definite hours for de-
finite purposes. The result was that
within a brief space of time he was
hardened and disciplined and made
ready for active service in the field. He
learned the three fundamentals Of a
soldier: Obedience. loyalty and courage.
The periods in which the church has
made its most pronounced advance
have not been those that were char
acterized by ease and Incidence. Its
great forward movements have been
IN times of strenuous trial and persts-
tent opposition. It's finest leaders have
come out of periods where it cost much
to be a disciple. Our age Is character
lied by excess of indulgence in habits
and ways of living that contribute
little or nothing to either physical or
moral fitness Muscles grow soft and
fiabby where they are not given to reg
ular exercise. The muscles of the soul
sustain a like condition where they are

Local Organizations, Private Initiative
Needed for National Drought Relief

the Federal Farm Loan Board and the
Red Cross at Washington, and the
Grain Stabilizing Corporation at 343
South Dearborn street. Chicago.
The Grain Sterilization Corporation
Is probably in a position to do more
than any other Federal agency to meet
the present most inSiStent difficulty ::
namely, the finding and providing of
feed for farm animals for the preven-
ton of the serious Gripping of animal
huSbandry in American agriculture.
The Grain Sterilization Corporation
possesses vast amounts Of grain. and Is
prepared to keep on buying more in
proportion as 1t calls upon its present
supplies for the relief of drought suf-
ferers. 1t can funnel grain from re-
gions OF surplus to regions OF Caficit.
It can thus help both ends of the chain
of farm depression. 1t cannot how
ever, successfully deal with a million
or so of individual farmers: nor can it,
with a proper regard for the spirit of
the law under which 1t operates, give
grain away free either for feed or seed.
Its power to solve the problem Of put
ting feed grain and seed grain into the
places where it will relieve distress and
restore such stability as is possible
must be said to depend entirely upon
its being able to secure from local re-
porting and financing organizations
willingness to help to validate the
farm notes on which che eraiI: can be
shipped and sold. Local business men,
and particularly local bankers. are
thus really the indispensable keystone
of any arch Of drought relief plans
that the Federal Government may
build.
The sum of the situation is that in
this matter Federal resources will lie
largely dormant ill awakened into eff
fective use by average private Ameri-
can citizens
