TNHE recent announcement that Col.
and Mrs. Lindbergh are to fly to
Greenland this Summer, and
i perhaps will continue to Iceland
and Denmark, . is news of the
highest Importance to aviation. The
Lindbergh flight, undertaken as a field
survey of the Greenland-Iceland air
route to Europe, is probably the most
important event scheduled in the avia-
ton activities of this season, partly
because of its potential technical re-
suits, but even more because it will dra-
matically focus attention on the "step-
ping stones" between America and
Europe.
Unlike that other transatlantic flight,
which in 331a hours lifted Charles A.
Lindbergh from the ranks of the hun
dreds of capable but little known pilots
to the topmost position in world flying
this Summers venture Is not a solo
trip, conceived and executed by one
man. 1t is an important and logical
part of great and romantic research
program that has been going on for
years with ever-increasing momentum.
The expedition perhaps should be
called the Lindbergh-Logan expedition
under the auspices of the Pan-American
Anyways One branch of it, the base
ship, already has left for the North. On
June % the chartered Danish tramp
steamer Jelling left Philadelphia. Her
ice pilot is Capt Pilegaard, a Danish
veteran of the West Coast of Green
land. and her master Is another "old-
timer" of icy waters, Capt Hogstedt,
who has piled his trade in the difficult
seas north of Russia. She carries a
technical staff for detailed research
ho Of Hof
ert A. Logan.
Maj Logan himself is famous Ca
madam war ace who was shot down by
Capt Richthofen and imprisoned, after
he had sprinkled bombs on the head
quarters of Prince Rupprecht He was
the first aviator sent North by the Ca
madam government for the study Of
Arctic flying. Ten years ago he went up
the West Coast of Greenland, across
Melville Bay and as far as Ellesmere
Island, making favorable report on
flying conditions in those regions which
the Canadian government did not fol-
low up. Now he is heading north again.
Gasoline and Oil Supply.
The Jeiling is carrying a supply of
gasoline and oil and a Fairchild plane
to Cartwright, Labrador. There the
ship will be contacted by the Lind
berghs in their Lockheed, and the real
work of the expedition will begin.
1t is not certain that the expedition
will result in another transatlantic
fight by Col. Lindbergh. The plan Is
to investigate. step by step. the separate
links of the Greenland-I Iceland route to
Europe, beginning at the west and pzo-
ceeding eastward as far as the circum-
stances and seasons permit. 1t is con-
Icerned in part with gathering meteoro-

Partial Delay in Economic Conference
Held Definite Blow to Final Success

be possible fer countries which desire
to increase prices to discuss much
more closely than heretofore the
methods and extent to which this
policy should be pursued. The British
dominions and many of the sterling
area" countries, Scandinavia. etc,
would welcome this. At a certain
point the work of bridging differences
with the gold countries" might begin.
The policy of expanding public
works. for example. may represent ap-
proach to an agreement. Concerted
policy need not mean identical policy.
If France desires no increase in her
prices, Great Britain moderate in
crease and America a substantial one
| in view of their respective internal situ-
ationS, they can agree to differ in these
respects and the differences can be re-
! fected in the different exchanges OF
| their currencies.
The tariff policy presents an equally
! crucial problem. The best thing would
be for the discussions to proceed on the
assumption that currency stablllzatlon
will be reached later, and agreements
made in such form that their actual
application will be conditional upon
sterilization being attained.
The danger is, however. that in the
! OreSenU HlOOu Ol Illc COll1ClCilSC Viz NAo-
cussions would reflect, rather, the tariff
situation which the different countries
would consider appropriate to conditions
of currency instability. In that event
the conference might consolidate the
worst practices instead of introducing
reform. and this would do more harm
than good
Some Recovery Apparent.
Whether, then, this partial suspension
is mere pause or the beginning OF
ultimate and final failure depends upon
the possibility of soon expanding the
modest technical work now continuing
/ into real discussions Of monetary poncy
and conditional but substantial tarlr1
reform. and then the harvesting OF the
fruit of these discussions by the re-
sumption of plenary meetings.
If this does not come TO pass Ine
conference will fail Consequences that
must be expected include increased de-
fault on internal obligations, the con-
tinued cessation of foreign lending and
a serious setback to the recovery OF
world trade and export industries.
This does not mean necessarily a
dramatic and immediate effect on the
general world situation. Apart from
the conference and the questions 1t has
been discussing there recently have
been signs of some recovery, not only
in America. but elsewhere. And though
failure will impede. it may not alto
gether stop this recovery. More seri-
Gus would be the long-term effects.
The movement toward economic ma
tionalism would be strengthened and
the belief in international cooperation
for all purposes diminish.
More than that. the internal social
dangers everywhere would increase, Tor
the ordinary mans faith not only in
international government, but in gov
ernment itself would be seriously
weakened.
The crisis is serious. but it is a time
not fer despair, but for a new effort.

ANOTHER ALIRI

MYTH President Roosevelt and the Re
w construction Finance Corporation appeal
ing to the American Bankers Association for
better cooperation in extending private credit
for industrial recovery, some bankers seem
more intent on destroying the New Deals
mild banking reforms. Among other things,
they have started a drive to modify the new
Truth Securities law. oMdify in this case
means to destroy, because the banking group
succeeded in modifying the original bill to the
point where the law as passed represented the
bare minimum of practicable federal blue-sky
regulation.
The argument against the securities law
parades in the cloth of patriotism. 1t is said
that the new law has prevented much-needed
financing, retarded the fotation of securities
and thus jeopardized national recovery. That
is not true.
The chief business need is obviously Short
term credit. That is not affected by the
securities law. Still the bankers refrain from
lending, despite the pleas Of the White House,
the RFC and the NRA.
Railroad securities also are exempt from
the securities act and yet new rail issues are
not being floated. The railroads are not even
taking advantage of the credit facilities for
maintenance and equipment available under
the MIRA
Municipal issues are another class exempted
from the securities law But defaults continue
because cities are unable to refnance.
Apparently the capital markets can be re-
vived only through larger government financ-
ing of capital expenditures for public works.
While bankers hesitate to extend even short
term credits, it is obviously absurd to argue
that the mild securities law is to blame for the
absence of long-tern issues.
We believe with the administration which
enacted the securities law that it is helpful
to real business recovery. If corporate securi-
ties can not be sold in the light of facts re-
garding their value, as required by the law,
then it is better that they remain unsold. u
sound stock issues can not speed business
recovery.

REPEAL WHISKY

a GENERATION which regards the kitchen
L \ sink as gin factory and has realized the
utter falsity of even the most eminent labels
stands today upon the threshold of new era
repeal
To innocent modern ears there is no sacri-
lege in Dr. James NJ. Doran's suggestion that
the surviving seventeen-year-o whisky be
used merely as base for blends, to constitute
less than 20 per cent by volume of new con-
coction consisting largely of grain alcohol and
prune juice.
The great tradition of American rye and
bourbon whisky was not built upon-call it
what you will-blended, rectifed or cut stock.
Those were the things which formerly were
supposed to make a jackrabbit spit in the
bulldogs face. Old DR.. Harvey Wiley a
chemist himself, always contended that the
chemists place was in his laboratory, not in
the distillery. And certainly the Kentucky
colonies and other authorities on sound drink
ing stuck to their principles that nothing was
too good for a gentleman's stomach.
Yes. this is old-fashioned talk But syn
thetic hooch is going to be old-fashioned al
most before one can say Bottoms up!' The
good name Of repeal should be protected; it
was fought for hard enough. The repeal era
should not be the ersatz era
Congress. the bureau of industrial alcohol
the state liquor commissions and, most of ALL
the distillers and consumers should get busy
to insure that repeal whisky will be the best
and purest that can be made.

HASTE MAKES WASTE

WHEN you are considering the apparent
w slownesS of the administration in get
ting its vast public works program under way
there are one or two little subsidiary points
that ought to be taken into account.
First of all, JOBS of this kind are, in the
very nature of things, slow in getting started
You can't begin big construction job over
night The mere physical work of getting set
on blueprints and designs, getting estimates
and contracts, arranging for supplies Of mate
RIAL and so on takes time-lots Of it. A GER
tain amount of delay is inevitable under even
the most ideal conditions.
Secondly, there is the possibility of graft
and extravaganza. Haste makes waste no
where so much as in government spending.
This tremendous spending program could
easily develop the most monstrous govern
mental scandal in all our history, if extreme
care were not taken. We want it kept free
from graft, and graft is apt to slip in if the
thing is done too fast.

PLACING THE PROFIT

A NY intelligent conception Of modern
governmental functions" said Dr.. Tug
well, the assistant secretary Of agriculture,
must embrace the idea Of effective con-
sumner protection"
This is the basis upon which Dr.. Howe,
consumers counsel with the Agricultural Adj
justment Administration has begun the issu-
ance of his bimonthly bulletins called The
Consumers Guide. In this, to assist retail
purchasers and make them aware of the fuc-
tuations in the prices of processed farm
products, he is listing average costs OF four
teen leading articles Of food over the nation
and in some fifty individual cities.
Through this guide, consumers will learn
more about the spread between the prices they
pay and the prices farmers receive and in
this particular Dr. Howes publication is of
especial significance.
If prices are unreasonable it frequently is
not the fault of the retail merchants; the
blame may lie upon the distribution system
over which they, as rule, have little control
The consumers counsel has pointed out in
the first issue of The Guide:
e.. the professors and distributors por-
ton of the consumers dollar was often rela-
lively greater during the depression thar it
was during the years we are apt to look upon
as prosperous"
Consumers and farmers have a vital in
terest, Dr. Howe explains in what happens to
these margins under the new farm deal. Thus
far he finds the program fair in this respect.
The Guide will show whether this fair rela-
tionship is maintained.

WRONG BALLYHOO
recovery.

CIvIC boosters often have way of object
~ ing to the publication of unpleasant facts
on the ground that such publication does
more harm than good. The issue arose in
Philadelphia the other day. and ended in such
a way as to justify those who believe that
telling the unvarnished truth is the more
wholesome policy.
The Chamber of Commerce issued a report
boaSting that all business houses on two main
downtown streets had enrolled in the NRA.
The editor of the Philadelphia Record sus-
pected that this boast was sheer ballyhoo.
He had reporters investigate. found that six
teen business firms in the district cited had
not enrolled, and published a story telling of
the findings.
The result was that the sixteen dilatory
firms Immediately got into line. And the Rec
ord pertinently remarked that whereas the
empty ballyhoo of the civic boosters had
stopped progress, the active criticism Of the
newspaper had led directly to some much
needed action.
