Correcting the Evil at It's Source.

Since the safe passage of the park
legislation that bears his name. Repre-
sentative Cramton of Michigan has
again taken up his strong advocacy Of
the lump sum payment In lieu of fixed
ratio, and again has become one OK the
most persistent opponents Of an in
crease in the lump sum. Washington
regrets that this role is assumed by Mr.
Cramton. During the consideration Of his
fine park measure the people OF the
District naturally registered objection
to the fact that its financing. under the
lump sum system. would throw dis
proportionately heavy burden upon
them as local taxpayers supporting an
other senai-national project; a project
originally conceived as being national,
drawing its support from the contribu-
tons of all national taxpayers. Mr..
Cramton's attitude toward these OBJ
jections was that any remedy applying
to the appropriation system for the Dis
trict as a whole would apply to Ananc-
ing the park measure as we'll. If the
system of appropriating for the Dis
trict were changed, the system Of
financing the park measure would
change as we'll
Now that the park bill has passed,
Mr.. Cramton has entered the lists again
as an active crusader for the lump sum
and the ss,Oo0,00O lump sum as
well. He deserves credit for his hard
work in support of an admirable measure
for Capital improvement. But his concept
of Federal obligation to Capital de-
velopment and support, as shown in
his ardent championship of the unfair
lump sum arrangement, tends to place
the park measure in another lignt--a
heavy and unfair burden upon local
taxpayers.
Washington admirers and supporters
Of the Cramton park development plan
had hoped that Mr.. Cramton would re-

self who, In his stirring Pacific ad-
venture, gave the world, Tor the FIRST
time, an example net only of radio d.

nication from . plane high in the air
over ocean wastes and far from the
sight Of man. And so, while the British
pilot gives q full share of credit to
radio, it may well be said that it was
he who practically originated It's use,
especially in twe-way communication,
for over-the-oeean flights.
The story of the latest success Of the
Southern Cross can be told in Q few
words. but the thoughts of those aboard
the giant plane in its thirty-one hour
flight from England to America as
they faced what appeared TO be almost
hopeless odds in wind and fog can
probably never be put down. Each man
had his work to do and each one per-
formed his task CALAMITY. They knew
that upon their efforts, individually
and collectively, depended their lives,
but what must have been their thoughts
as they circled in a dense fog high over
the tip of Newfoundland with only a
few gallons of gasoline left In their
tanks? Whatever they were, they did
not deter these brave airmen, and
therein lies the reason for the happy
elimination of q history-making fight.
