the others being Angie Tar.
dugnO, bantanweight champion,
and "SOckO" Miller, lightweight

Hughes will suplant Heinie Miller
as one Of the referees. Miller

past few months. The other
referee will be Spike" Webb, who
has coached the Naval Academy
boxers for the past IL years.

when It is remembered that one hun
bred and sixty-nine persons clambered
aboard recently and the big ship rose
easily with the burden. On the Canary
hop more than three thousand gallons
of gasoline were used by the twelve
six-hundred horsepower American mo-
tors, and 1t Is expected that on some OF
the longer hops a full tank of seven
thousand gallons of gasoline and five
hundred gallons of oil will be needed.
1t may be q month or more before
the DO-X reaches New York, but slow
as Is this progress its arrival will mark
another milestone in aviation. Some
persons will probably argue that jump
ing the huge plane across the ocean,
with an expense Of thousands Of dollars,
will mean nothing at all. but the flight
of the DO-X, by its very nature, can
be only experimental, and successful
experiments show the way for greater
development. So If mans first attempt
to get fifty-flve-ton plane from Europe
to America is a success, however long 1t
takes, the lessons learned can be utilized
in the building of the bigger planes that
are sure to appear in the future for the
transportation of this fast-trsveling
generation.

ing for beach conditions that apparently
were never satisfactory; but Campbell,
who once held the record over the same
stretch at two hundred and six miles
an hour, seems determined to do or
die"
The new aspirant for world honors is
the only living person to have driven a
car more than two hundred miles an
hour, but he must do better than ever
before to take the record from the late
Sir Henry Segrave, who burned over
the sand at Daytona at more than two
hundred and thirty-one miles an hour
Campbells car, the Bluebird II, has five
hundred more horsepower than the one
he used to establish what was then the
world record. The tires on the new
machine are built for three hundred
miles an hour, but 1t is hardly likely
that such a speed will be attained. At
one hundred and ninety miles an hour
on Saturday his throttle was said to be
at the quarters mark, so that even
If he breaks the record 1t probably will
not be by a large margin.
That Campbell's self-imposed task of
attempting to beat the worlds record is
a dangerous one is conceded. but SO are
the tasks Of all pioneers, whether it is
Arctic exploring, testing out new de-
signs of airplanes or seeking knowledge
under the sea in submarines. Many
persons believe that. compared to motor
racing, speedboating is mere child's
play, yet Sir Henry Segrave lost his life
in the latter sport after driving his
automobile at a faster rate than was
ever before attained by human. To
the pioneers in motor speed the world
owes its perfected cars of today. When
steering gear, wheels, tires and other
parts Of an automobile come through
the acid test of the speedway they are
quite likely to prove entirely adequate
to meet the needs of the average per-
son. Capt. Campbell is investigating
the higher realms of speed. Either his
success or failure, and his success is
hoped for, will be the basis for a val
liable addition to the worlds store of
knowledge.

British Insurgents"

Events of the past few days in the
House of Commons indicate that Brit
ish politics has made the acquaintance
Of the "insurgent." The breed mani
tests itself in the ranks of Labor's two
party foes, the Conservatives and the
Liberals. That stormy petrol, Winston
Churchill, M. p, who has worn many
coats in his day, has quit the inner
council of the Baldwin Conservatives,
and Sir John Simon, X. c., M. P, has
turned his back on the Lloyd George
Liberals.
Churchill writes my dear Baldwin"
that, while he cannot follow his leader
in supporting Labor's Indian self-gov-
eminent plan. he will continue to join
Mr.. Baldwin in opposition to "the So
cialists" on other scores. So far, Mr..
Churchill's bolt remains a one-man
show and is confined to his own de-
lection from the Conservative party's
cabinet" or governing body. Sir John
Simon's desertion of the Liberal lead
ership is of larger dimensions, as he
was followed by half a dozen political
comrades who share his objection to
Mr.. Lloyd Georges assent to the Labor
governments trades-disputes policy. The
MacDonalditeS have just beaten off
their opponents efforts to declare a
general strike illegal. On that issue
Labor saved its life again, thanks to
Liberal votes.
Thus the Socialist" regime in Down.
ing Street thrives, from crisis to crisis,
on the internal chickering's of its par
limentary foes. With Conservatives
and Liberals, chronically and respec-
lively houses divided against them
selves, Labor's lot continues to be rela-
lively Salubrious. Yesterday, London
dispatches tell us, the prime minister
spent the first untroubled week end at
Chequers which he has known since
the London Naval Conference Of a
year ago.
Perhaps in that luxurious Bucking-
hamshire retreat. where, as he once
said, he goes to be reminded that fiow-
ers still bloom and birds sing, Mr..
Macdonald, like Disraeli, who rests
close by, soliloquizes that he, too, is "a
master of the tedious art of managing
men,"

craft. 1t was found impossible to grant
him early in the evening the full time
he would require on the air for his New
York address on February 6, while it is
actually being delivered. So he ar
ranged to repeat it, in the broadcaSting
studio, couple Of hours after the
Council on Foreign Relations banquet
listens to it. Col. StimSon will deal with
Latin America and a nation wide chain

Most people think that Americans
who trace their ancestry to Norway
Sweden or Denmark are of "Scandina
Wan" origin. Since the news of his
recent transfer from the White House
to the movies George Akerson has been
frequently referred to as a man OF
scandinavian" extraction. Now comes
an irate descendant Of Norway, whence
Georges progenitorS also emanated, and
proudly objects to Akerson's having a
Scandinavian background foisted on
him. Georges people hailed from Nor

Everybody Was Right.

The fare-up over the dismissal of
six gambling cases in Police Court has
ended most satisfactorily. No one is to
blame except the other fellow, who,
most happily, is innocent. But the az
fair will have q far more beneficial and
lasting effect than the mere findings, by
separate investigations, Of such praise
worthy rectitude on the part of every
body concerned, as comforting to the
public as that may be. In the first
place, those charged with the offense
of gambling will be tried, after all. In
the second place, one prefers to believe
there is less probability OF further mis-
understandings which prevent the ap-
pearance at the proper time and place
of important Government witnesses.
In this connection, the Police Depart
ment might consider the ACCESSIBILITY
Of assigning man to Police Court as
liaison officer, whose duty it would be
TO keep in touch with the United States
attorneys ONCE and be responsible for
the appearance of police witnesses 81
the proper time. The failure of such
witnesses to appear, unless there are
excuses which, in the opinion Of the
court, are legitimate, should be regarded
as neglect Of duty and receive disciplin-
airy action.

intentions, quarrelsome intentions, when
all the time they might bring a bit OF
happiness to themselves and others by
trying to see things in their best light.
None Of us ought to wait until the sun
comes out.
What one ought to do, and what one
does, however, are admittedly distinct
propositions, about which no two peo-
pie will entirely agree.
The best that can be done Is to stick
to ones self with the pleasantly phil
anthropic hope that the rays of sun
shine which one manages to amasS for
himself will find their way into the
outer darkness.
He has been poor in visions indeed
who has not at some time or other
been able to look down a rain drenched
street just as rainbow is forming and
illumina ton, something besides small
row houses, trees. children wading in
the cutters, automobiles with dark and
gliStening tops.
Huge drops still continue to drip
from the trees. Great clouds are
scudding to the west with the diSap-
pearance of the rainStorm.
A fresh GOODNESS has come to late
afternoon. Lawns lie as so much freshly
WdSIltQ Velvet, JLl1Ck, COIOElul, LUSCIOUS.
And the rainbow appears in the east.
But it is not all. Something else is
here-a realization, sense of some-
thing exquisite beyond words, perhaps
beyond thought.
1t is a time for enjoyment.
Years later somewhat similar aft
ernoon, maybe miles away, and the
whole scene flashes back-the trees, the
lawns, the children wading. the great
drops falling almost as If it were rain
ing yet.
And that sense of something great,
wonderful, beyond words.
It is well to see street cars and
BUSES as people, not as vehicles; for
human beings are and must remain
the most interesting things in the world,
far more enthralling than motor We
hicles, or airplanes, or buildings, or
paintings, or music, or books.
1t is only as all these have to do with
humanity that they are interesting
Humanity is at once glorious and foul,
noble and shameful, happy and
wretched.
Always 1t is interesting.
Let us see Inauguration and parade
crowds not as just crowds in the mass,
but as aggregations composed of indi-
vloualS, each seeking excitement and
happiness.
Let us see the Zoo not as a "collec-
ton" but as living, breathing creatures,
intent, in so far as barriers will permit
them, in the pursuit of life and happi-
ness, too.
One way to a new birth is not to wait
for it, but to make 1t, or at least to
attempt to make it, come true every
day, If only in a very limited way.
Let us eliminate from the private
and individual life, as far as feasible
and possible, the emotions of fear and
greed. which make the wars, and sub
stitute for them appreciation of things
as they are, not as we might like
them, and ready sense Of the humor
in life.
The people as a mob are hopeless, but
human being as an individual has
some chance.
