THE EXPORT OF HELIUM COULD BE PERMITTED

Opinion seems to be uniform that had the Riot been inflated with helium instead of with hydrogen there would have been no explosion and the loss of life correspondingly light.
 Therefore, it is held, there should be a arrslaxation of the American na- tional defense act barring the ex- port of helium to foreign nations for experimental purposes.
 The only known unlimited supply of helium is in the United States. It is a n-inflammable, non explosive gas made from natural gas. It is produced in unlimited quantities in Texas and Kansas. but is expensive,
 From a humanitarian standpoint the ban against it's export should be lifted if and when treaties can be
  ed would be used only for experi- mental purposes in aviation. Such treaties could be procured.
 Our extension of regret and sym- pathy to the British nation in it's hour of sorrow at losing distinguish lot est ri gible tragedy could therefore take on l practical assistance by permitting the export of helium. We cannot use all of it ourselves and there can De no valid objection to it's use else where for experimental purposes which would further the cause of aviation.

'O.O.McInfyre

New York, Oct. 7.-Although they say time softens such a blow any effort to comment upon the recent passing of Will c. Hogg in Baden Baden, Germany, bring a fierce choke. One of my dearest friends, he was the most impulsive- ly noble and steadfastly loyal gen tleman I ever encountered. No per son could be more widely beloved. I loved him as few could love their favorite brother. For 12 years our lives have been almost constant ccmpanionship. About ten years older, he was my guide, my coun. sellor, my friend. His mind, his VI tality, his varied resourcefulness were magnificent. He had a light ming temper. His sweetness was childlike. He was a man!
 Just three months ago. after knocking around Europe all sum- mer together, we exchanged rowdy farewells in Berlin. 50 long, you big stiff." I called out the Bremen boat train window. He glanced about quickly, thumbing his nose slyly, turned and was swallowed up by station crowds as the train thun- dered away.
 Then the other week. came that distressing cable from his sister: Brother has undergone an emer- gency operation" There were three days of waiting anguish and came from the patient himself, a typical cable: Don't speak of my unem- ploSment." And while our hopes ran high, the thunderclap news O. the end.
 He was superlatively civic con- scious and spent largely of his vast wealth in beautifying his native Houston, but always from an ob- scure anonymity. Until several years ago there was not a newspaper in the Texas city in which he was de- servedly knowns as "the first citi- zen" that had his picture in it's filing room.
 Due 10 my personal manner Of writing it was next to impossible not to mention him in my triviaii- ties but it always vexed him. Often in a flush of anger he would ex- claim: If you run my name in your blankety blank column again I'm going to slap you down" And trust he forgfves this attempt at eulogy.
 The son of an illustrious sire, Gov. James Hogg, he had that fix ation for right so frequently char acteristic of sons of great men. Outwardly gruff and at times poeti- cally profane. inwardly there was no phase Of altruism he did not possess. The rascals remain but the worthy go On. It is all inscrutable.
 No person I ever knew was such a human anomoly as Will Hogg. He vas at once the cosmopolite and the backwoods Jasper. He was an art collector of distinction. his col lection of Remingtons being the largest in the world, his knowledge of period furniture profound. He divided time among his Park ave- nue home, old world capitals and his beautiful estate, Bayou Banks" iii Houston. Yet I have seen him hunched over a steaming bowl of chilli in a sawdust joint eating with the gusto of a starving tramp. He would endure tortures of jerk-water railroads to see a county fair. He carried cooks from Texas all over the world to have a daily supply of corn ,pone for himself and friends. Always his friends-he lived solely for them and his brothers and sister.

The Mediterranean Sea was quite a

boat ride they were on. 1t was a heap
of fun. Out sight of land they never

one by one" So that's what CloWny
did. The others scampered merrily
and 1t was lots of fun to see the

Then, shortly, as he found each one,
right back to goal he'd promptly run.
The whole bunch had a lot of laughs
and thought the game was slick.
The Travel Man then said, well,
boys, you'll have to stop your fun and
noise. We're pulling into 1sranbul.
My, what treats it has in store" Up
to the deck rail they all ran. The
shore line they could easily scan.
The boat then landed safely and they
scampered out on shore.
