Lindy's Flight Is Told
In Music by German

Quite q sensation was created by
famous otto Kiempera of the State OPP
era, Berlin, when he conducted the first
performance of q cantata for voice and
orchestra called "Lindbergh's Flight"
The words are by the modernist,
Bert Brecht, and the music by the
equally modern composer, Kurt Well.
Propellers, motors and radio hum and
shrek through this symphonic picture
of the most daring accomplishment Of
our time.
At first the Berlin public smiled at
the somewhat crude limitations of all
the noise Of technique, but then words
and music alike caught ones breath
and there was long burst of applause
The cantata depicts the episodes of
the great flight. Lindys flight against
fog and storm, his wrestling with sleep,
news broadcast by radio to skeptic
Europe, the sighting of the plane by
fishermen and at last the big burst OF
his reception ct lie Bourget. A thrill
ing tale of thrilling deed, told by word
music to spur youth on the glorious
path to fame.

Deplore Competition Between
Science and Classics in Schools

This method of recognizing American
education by oratorical ponderosity and
prepoSterousness Is what boys call 1.-The
bunk" II anything, - mplimentary
terms are better used on all educational
subjects that are complementary.
Latin Termed Perennial Science.
Some years ago q prime minister Of
England headed two committees, elias.
sizes and English. A quotation from
the report of each will be eniightening.
I'VE regard Latin as Of great and al
most irreplaceable value as q means
of promoting the proper use Of the
English language, both in speech and
writing, by all classes of the COM
munity. AL our experts recognize that
Latin provides an incompatible disci-
This from the classic committee.
The English committee said: I'VE
see in the classical sources of our own
language, our own art, our own ex-
perience, and we hold that no student
of English viii have completed his ex-
ploration or gained all its advantages
until he has assembled the stream or
literature and discovered these peren-
NAL sources for himself"
All European prose, English included,
is the direct descendant and creation
Of Latin prose. The poet said "the
descent Of poetry Il from Greece TO
italy and from Italy to England"
What literature Gin whatsoever lam
glage) has always sought is perfection,
that kind Of perfection which sets
standards.
We can well wonder why the Greek
and Latin set both the earliest and the
best standards of perfection, but thsre
u no manner of doubt about the fact.
The most delightfully."- obvious and gap
ing joints in the armor of those who
tilt against Latin and Greek disclose
that they have no acquaintance with
either one.

Political Command Is Held Weakness
Of Soviet Army, Tearing Down Strength

What is the real strength Of the Rus.
sian army? Judgments vary widely.
Some say that the Soviet military
establishment is formidable in numbers,
discipline and equipment. Others say
that 1t is only vast paper organization.
incapable Of making war in the modern
sense.
In recent article Lieut.. Col Rebout
of the French Army established some
facts about the size of the Red forces
and their organization. He says that,
according to a report of the peoples
commissary for military affairs, made
in 1925, the normal number of recruits
each year would be at least 1900 900.
Counting 100000 as unfit for service,
there would remain 100000 to be in
corporated.
Cost Keeps Total Down.
1t would require at least $4,000 pro-
fessional soldiers, including officers, to
instruct and organize them. The army
should, therefore, consist of about
1850 900 men, plus the on-combataut
services. But RusSia's financial posi-
ton does not allow her to support so
large an army, and the consequence is
that only small part of the contingent
is incorporated each year.

military preparation obligatory. This is
given in 5000 centers of instruction.
The Russian army In time Of peace,
therefore, consists of active service
troops, ready to take the field, and In
struction units, which are divided into
permanent cadres, and militia, called
territorial units, charged with Instruct

Turkey Faces Cleanup,
But Kemal Exempts Self

While the private life of the Ghazi
president Mustapha KemaD is open to
constant criticism because OF his love
for good strong liquor and champagne.
he has now taken steps to insure the
Sobriety of the common people. In the
near future several sections Of SIAM
,oul are to be rid Of bars and the famous
red-light district of the old city is to be
cleaned up, according to recent edict
which has been issued 1t is possible
that restrictions may be placed on vice
and drinking in all parts of the coun-
try as soon as the public has been given
a bit of education on the subject. AT
the same time those who oppose the re-
gime, and great many others who are
interested in the subject for purely
altruistic reasons, demand that the
GhaSi set better example for the pub
lie by his own personal conduct. The
Ghazi's private following in Angora
leads a gay life and no one has ever
taken the trouble to deny that the chief
goes in for gay all-night parties on his
own score. Since his wife was sent back
to Constantinople in virtual exile, Renal
has been bitterly criticized for having
large number of step daughters" living
in the same house. Turks in general
feel that If harems are to be abolished in
the case of the lowly public the same
rule should be made to apply to those
high in the government

ROme's Traffic Change
Stirs Up Ire of POpulace

Rome's new traffic reform, which
swept street cars from the central sec
ton of the city on New Year day and
replaced them by buses, has thrown ire
into hearts OF the common people.
Unable to sardine themselves into the
crowded buses, which appear made
quate for handling traffic, q small mob
halted two vehicles in Piazza Colonna
and when carabinieri drove 1t away, it
repeated the same performance at the
next corner.
To cap the climax. 10 bus conductors,
who did not like the new ticket system.

Nationalist Consul
Takes Hawaii Post

The first official action of the Ma
uonalist government In China directly
affecting Hawaii is the arrival of a new
Chinese CONSUL Yuen Suwong, who
succeeds Kung Yieh-tsoa. The latter
who has been in ONCE for two years,
was appointed by a former government.
AS in the case of previous incumbents
whose home government changed while
they were in foreign land, he has been
rather at sea as to what was expected
Of him. This recalls the case OF q Chi
uese consul a number Of years ago who
did not hear from his home government
officially for many months after q
change, and whose consulate was hard
pressed for funds, until some one in
China finally woke up to the fact that
there was a consul In Hawaii, but no
appropriation to keep him going.

fairs, who is at the same time president
of the Revolutionary Military Council,
is at the head of all the Soviet forces.
AS such, he gives orders to all the vari-
Gus organizations and also directly
snares the policy of the army.
He operates through many political
Agencies-councils, secretariats and po-
litical sections within the army. And
this widely diffused political authority
very often interferes with the normal
exercise Of command. 1t weakens the
military value Of the standing field
organizations by creating conflicts and
encouraging constant political interven-
ton in the army.
In this sense, the Red army is In
efficient and paralyzed for real military
purposes. Impressive in numbers, it is
not in a position to exert military pres
sure, as was shown only recently in the
case of the demonstration along the
Manchurian border.

have demonstrated in q practical way
how employment may be made steady
even in times of depression. They have
proved, as have others, that reserves"

may continue work, are profitable for

There is no "cure all" for the prob

substantial and heartening progress in
lifting from our workers the burden of
the business depression that came late
in 1929. No nation has yet solved the
problem of ending periodic, widespread
unemployment. In America we shall
not solve that problem in a day, a
week or year by mere enactment of
Congress. But in the White House.

Ulster Idle Decrease
Through Emigration

Ulster claims to have reduced from

ance leaders have declared that the

Unemployment in the North has been

been shipped to Canada.
The Northern government favors this
