Commercial aviation is getting safer be-
cause safety is the first consideration of the
designers of commercial aircraft Only a
few years ago most of the planes III the air
were left-overs from the war period. Safety
is not the first consideration i'll military
airplanes; speed and maneuverability are
the prime requisites there. Army and navy
filters have to take enormously greater risks
than passengers in commercial alrpanes
should ever be called upon to take. And
in fourteen years of peace the world has
learned much more about making ar travel
safe than it had learned in the nine years
between the first flights and the entry Of
the United States into the war

AIR TRAVEL GETTING SAFER.

WE SAW a report the other day on the
w aviation industry, which indicates
that the building and operation Of aircraft
has suffered less from the industrial depres-
sion than any other line Of business. More
people are flying, more young people are
growing up airmnded, ailplanes are get
ting better, safer and swifter, and It seems
a pretty safe thing to predict that by the
time the children Of today are grown up
air travel will be as commonplace to them
as automobile travel is to the grownups OF
now
We haven't the figures, but we imagine
that III proportion to the number of people
who travel by air there are no more fatal
accidents than there are among motorists.

nized In Germany ms the inventor OF
the military tank. died without collect
ing the 10,0O0.0oO marks he demanded
as compensation from the ministry OF
defense for his invention His widow

moor at his death, first exhibited his
tank In 1913, when 1t climbed a 80 per
cent grade amid the applause Of high
imperial officers. He maintained to
the last that failure Of the kaiser's

JUDGE ALLEN A WISE WOMAN.

0NE OF the more prominent speakers at
" tho recent session of the Inland En-
nre Education association, held III Spokane,
was .Iudoe Florence Allen of the supreme
court of Ohio, a nationally known inquire
and one of the few women judges III the
United States III her address before the
educators Judge Allen said that corrupt
politicians, gangsters and racketeers coliia
not exist were they not tolerated by the
public.
Judpe Allen left a thought with her
audience that it is well for all OF us to pom
der. Much of the evil of present day condl-
tons is due to the indifference OF the pub
lie to matters of the greatest Importance.
Our own welfare and prosperity and the
welfare of our families and children depend
TO large degree OH the class OF men and
women we place in public office. Yet al.
together too many citizens pay little or no
attention to such matters and repeatedly
fail even to vote at election and frequently
when they do vote do SO without first hav-
inc informed themselves Ill regard to the
vital questions before the American people.
An example of American indifference
To such matters was we'll illustrated III
comparison Of recent presidential vote 10
Germany with that east III the United
States. The United States has a population
of about 125 million, Germany about % NIL
lion The largest vote every east here was y
1923 for president when 3634 million voted
Fully half of those entitled to vote failed t
do So AT the late German election 3 y NIL
lion votes were cast by population only
half as large as our own.
That indifference to matters OF govern
ment is one important reason Tor preseh
unsavory conditions III the United States
AS Judge Allen intimated Ill her address
gangsters, racketeers and corrupt polltl
clans could not exist were it not for the III
difference Of the public Read what TIL
wise Judge had to say
nAs long as there is a functioning government any
,vhere there will be those who will seek immunity from
punishment" she said land agree that there coud DC

The proposed tax on beer, accom-
panied by the proposal to permit the
selling and brewing Of beer with con-
tent Of per cent, died a-borning. But
unless the Senate changes it the new
tax bill will provide for IS per cent
tax on malt and other items used in the
manufacture of home brew, and on
grape concentrate. Maybe those taxes
will raise lot of revenue, maybe not.
AT any rate, they will give key to
the actual consumption Of homebrewed
beer and ale, and home made wines
in the United States. The vets think
there is an awful lot of those commod-
tiles being manufactured; the drys
think that the volume is greatly exag-
gerated Putting tax on those things
will furnish some exact statistics, for
the first time since prohibition went
into effect.

The biggest single item of revenue
in the new tax bill is the individual

a point where anybody whose income is

$4,000 out of each 100000 to the fed

normal tax. But even when we add
state income taxes, which are IN eft

taxed in Great Britain In England the
income taxes begin on incomes OF 81

HIT BY INJURY

TULSA, Okla, Oct. 21.-George
Washington University's football
party of IS persons arrived here
today worried about the outcome
of tomorrow's game against the
Golden Tornado of Tulsa Univer-
sity. .- .
The Colonials will probably
enter the game minus two of
their stars, Johnny Fenlon and
FiniS Parrish, both of whom were
injured yesterday on the gridiron
of Washington University, in St.
Louis, where the G. w. team stop
ped for a workout.
Fenlon hurt his shoulder again
while throwing forward pass,
while Parrish received a knee in
jury. Fenlon has been out of
the game since the Alabama
fracaS.
The visiting team was to prac-
tice this afternoon at the scene
of tomorrow's game.
Every one in this city fully ex-
poets Tulsa to measure the Co
lonials in tomorrow's battle. The
Golden Tornado will, as usual,
resort to unorthodox measures to
defeat G. w, and Coach Hender-
son has arranged a series of
plays from a wide-open formation
especially for the Colonial game.
Coaches Pixlee and Walsh, of
G. W., have announced a re-
vamped lineup for the Tulsa
game. Mulvery and Chambers
will start at the flanks, Bill
Parrish and Walter Slaird, at the
tackles; "Zuzu" Stewart and
Pearce at the guards, Blackstone
at center, Baker at quarter, Nc
Carver and Edwards at the
halves, and "Otts" Kriemelmeyer
at fullback.

LOWRY IS GIVEN
ANOTHER SHOT

Local boxing fans, who raved
over the performance of Bob
Lowry, promising local junior
lightweight two weeks ago at
Portner's Arena, will get another
opportunity to watch him work
Monday night when he meets the
slugging Joe RaSpi, Baltimore, in
a four-round preliminary to the
Benny Schwartz-Frankie De
Angelo battle.
RaSpi recently lost a close tiff
to Billy Essinger, a veteran of
the ring in comparison to Lowry,
who has had only one profes-
sional fight. Lowry believes he
will have no trouble with the
Baltimore italian when they get
together.
Jack Quigley, who had Mike
Sipio on the floor twice two
weeks ago in Baltimore, returns
to Portner's, meeting Jesse Belt
in another four rounder.
De Angelo is hot and bothered
over the way Schwartz yelled for
eight rounds instead Of 10.
Frankie said today:
"That shows hurt him in
that seventh and eighth the
last time. I'll be in better
shape when we tangIe Monday
night. 1 won't let him get
away again."
