AN OLD ARGUMENT

IF the efforts of Colonel Lindbergh are sue
cessful the old hostility between Orville
Wright and the Smithsonian institution at
last will be ended, and the Smithsonian will
get possession of that historic Wright airplane
in which man began his great conquest of
the air.
The antagonism began because the Smith
sonian seemed inclined to give primary credit
for inventing the airplane to Professor Lang
ley. Mr.. Wright protested that the Langley
airplane never got into the air until long after
the first Wright flights, and that even then it
flew only after important alterations had been
made in its structure.
Public opinion doubtless sides with MIR.
Wright in this dispute And if Colonel Lind
bergh succeeds in smoothing over the Situa-
ton, so that Mr., Wright will consent to let
the Smithsonian have his plane, every one
will rejoice.
This plane is an American invention, and
it belongs in an American museum

The crippled copper explains it like this.
"One day I happened to notice Roosevelt

The greatest victory Franklin Roosevelt
ever won was his victory over his own BODY:
and victory like that keeps on working long
after the fight is finished.
For it is a demonstration that what ham

so long as he keeps alive that indomitable
spark of fearless determination in his own
heart.
