Editor, The Times-News:
When one walks abroad these
evenings, one would follow the
example Of Tannhauser by sing
! ing a hymn to the Evening Star;
for, in the purple and gold of the
fading twilight. Venus shines with
a light that evokes what is finest
in ones nature.
Until after Christmas Venus
will continue to enliven the eve
,, ming sky, and thus may be called
our Christmas Star.
Perhaps. then, it will not be
amiss to recall few facts about
it. Properly speaking, Venus is
not a star, but a planet. which,
like our moon, shines by reflected
sunlight, and exhibits phases like
cur Satellite. With optical aid
we can discern these, the one just
now being like that of the moon

magnifying power Of GO, to be eX.
act-the planet appears as large
as does the moon to the naked
eye. It's real size is just a little
less than that of the earth.
Its orbit lies inside the earth's
and therefore its velocity about
the sun is greater than that Of
our globe. In the ceaseless race
around the center of our SYSTEM,
Venus passes us at intervals Of
one year and seven months. This
time it will be near the middle OF
February, when the planet will be
only 26,000,000 miles distant.
Now it is 50,000,00O miles distant.
These distances are only trifles,
astronomically speaking.
The planet certainly has an at
mosphere. and very probably wa
ter. 1t is not unlikely, then, that
it is inhabited, if one likes to give
play to his imagination.
In addition to Venus. the heaV-
ems are now beginning to display
in the early evening the wonder

WAsHINGToN,-The best bet
w is that the securities act will
survive Congress intact.
Persistent broadsides from
Wall Street have led Roosevelt to
consider revision. Far from
convinced that q change is desir-
able, he seeks light on assertions
that the laws strictEeSs holds up
desirable financing.
The fact that some New York
banks have been sabotaging the
act by discouraging flotations
tends to convince the president
that the present statute should
be given a chance, some Of his adj
yisers think.
He has been shown how one
bank brought all kinds of pres
sure to prevent registration of an
excellent security issue.
Opposition strategy is to hold
up the best security issues until
the law is changed to limit dam
ages to compensation for losses
which can be proved as due to
Misrepresentation. That change
sounds reasonable.
But such proof often is imprac-
ticable, especially for small in
vestors. The act now assesses
liability for loss in any case of
misrepresentation.
Investment bankers don't want
their field for profits limited and
believe they should run the gov
eminent rather than vice versa.
Even if Roosevelt should okay
a change, Congress, impressed by
the Wiggin and other disclosures,
would be likely to balk.

A VALUABLE LESSON SOON
FORGOTTEN
lBY BRUCE CATTON)

When the BourbonS returned to power
in France after the downfall of Napoleon
Bonaparte. it speedily was discovered that
they had, in the famous phrase, Learned
nothing and forgotten nothing" One OF
the results was that their restoration didn't
LAST
One is reminded of this by some of the
antics which certain liquor concerns have
INDUCED in since the 18th Amendment was
repealed.
For one thing, retail prices charged for
hard liquors have been little less than fan
tastic. The principle of collecting what the
traffic will bear seems to have been fol-
lowed over and over again.
A nation which can remember when a
Quart of good whisky could be bought for
$3.50 now is discovering that it must pay
as high as So for the same article.
For another thing, the liquor interests
seem to be ready to plunge back into poll
ties Just as they did before prohibition.
A. fair sample is the experience Ohio has
been having.
Ohio's legislature was called into special
session to consider liquor control laws. The
governor submitted plan permitting sales
of wine and hard liquor by the glass in
hotels, restaurants and clubs, and setting
up a state monopoly to handle all retail
package sales.
Instantly the liquor lobby got busy. Par
ties were thrown for legislators. Pressure
iappliad. The liquor lobby demanded
thatthis bill be thrown overheard and that
licenses to-retail packaged liquor be sold
to any Tom, Dick and Harry who could
raise $3.50 for the privilege,
The governor had presented sane and
conservatU4 plan by which the profit mo-
tive gould be removed from the retail liquor
trade. The liquor lobby, so recently resur-
rected, insisted that the old set-up be re-
stored minus, of course, the open saloon
sol that the state be dotted with a host
of retailers, each urged by his pocketbook
to sell as much booze as he could, each
striving to satsell his neighbor
HiSuch tactics are a sample of the way
the liquor trade generally is going to act,
it isievident that the trade has learned
nothing by what happened to it in 1919.
Prohibition was adopted largely because
the liquor interests had become too AFRO
gan1 and too active in politics; because
tn yehad put the lust for profits ahead of
every Iother consideration.
IfIthey revive those old habits, they may
tempt great many citizens to reconsider
theia lreceht action in repeating the 18th
Amendment.

Britain Planning
Great Air Meet
By Williams

LONDON, April 29.-(UP).-
The biggest international air race
meeting ever staged in Britain
will be held at Portsmouth, Aug.
1, ) and 7.
The meeting will be along lines
similar to the annual national air
races in the United States. Ia
NOUS aviatOrs from many coun-
tries, including the United States,
France, Italy, Germany, Holland,
Poland, Jugosiavia and Czecho-
slovakia, are expected to COM
pete.
The races will be divided into
three classes. Each entry will
have to guarantee minimum
speed, according to the class in
which the plane is entered. Fol-
lowing are the speeds necessary:
"a" class, unlimited, ITO miles
per hour minimai.
"B" class, 8 1-2 liters cylinder
capacity, 100 miles per hour min
imal.
&C" class, 6 y liters cylinder
capacity $50 miles per hour mini
nal.
A company has been formed
for the organization OF the meet
ing and the Royal Aero club has
guaranteed a minimum of S25,-
600 prize money, rs follows:
Three first prizes Of $4,000
each.
Three second prizes Of $3.50
each.
Three third prizes of $3.50
each.
Three fourth prizes of $3.50
each.
An attempt probably viii be
made to break the land airplanc
speed record of 1858 miles per
hour Of Major James Doolittlc.
For this purpose it is planned to
adapt one of Britain's Schneider
trophy seaplancs for land flying.
The races will be flown over a
10-mile course marked ont with
pylons. An abundance Of prOmi-
rent spectators practically is as
sured, for the meeting comedies
with the Portsmouth navy week
and the famous Cowes yachting
week.

more feet Of film into 1900 feet,

While he is accused of ruthless
ness-"the face on the cutting
room floor"-thc editor is more
kind than cruel. He must select
the best scenes Of each sequence
and combine these into a piausl-

of action.
Next he turns to the sound
track and synchronizes lip read

difficult as it would seem, since
