The story centers around a pilot

as skillful with his guns. Together
in the same plane, they are an I'M
beatable combination, and one
enemy ship after the other is out
Unanswered by the pilot, sent crash

Soon the pair are heroes, and dec
Grafton after decoration is pinned
upon them.
But though they are the best of
combinations in the sky they are the
bitterest of enemies on the ground
The brilliance that makes the pilot
expert is based on his casual reck-
less attitude.
The skill that makes the observer
expert is based on his cold delight
in killing Pilot hates observer for
his ruthleSSness; observer hates
pilot for his senSitiveneSs.
1t is when the observer discovers
that the pilot has begun to crack
under the strain that the story
takes a new twist.
March is cast as the pilot and
Grant as the observer. Oakie, as
another pilot, furnishes comedy in

HOW MYTHOLOGY IS FORMED

ME savage tribes in some of the northern
most jungles of South America worship
the image of white man in silk hat and
frock coat.
For good many years explorers have been
collecting carved wooden stats bearing this
odd image-a white man in oId-fashioned dress,
often carved with genuine skill with minor
details of costume faithfully rendered Medi-
cine men used such stats extensively believ-
ing that all manner of diseases could be cured
with them
Naturally, somebody got curious about it
all, and long investigation has finally dug
up the explanation
More than 200 years ago a Scotch colony
was settled on the coast of the Gulf of San
Bias. doctor, William Patterson, was the
leading spirit in the venture.
He evidently was skilled and conscientious
physician, and he worked many cures among
his barbaric native neighbors.
AS result, the simple savages canonized
him when he died-or rather, they raised
him to position Of godhood. Members of
his own race long since forgot all about him,
but he remains today potent legend in the
distant jungles.
His likeness goes through the forests in
the hands of painted priests; he has a secure
place in remote wilderness pantheon.
Here, surely, is about as unusual 2 kind of
fame as any white man ever attained; and it
leads one into fruitless but interesting specu-
lation about the originals of other, more wide
ly known gods of the old days, because it sheds
such revealing light on the way in which
primitive people form their myths.
When We first get acquainted with print
tive myths most of us wonder how people
could be SO inventive; and the answer. ap-
parently, is that they aren't. Myths aren't
invented; they are built up unconsciously about
frameworks of fact

to be sure. But it is interesting to get
first-hand look at the way mythology comes
into being.

OLD-AGE PENSIONS

A TOTAL of twenty-five states have
= adopted old-age pension laws. In these
states INDECENT men and women too old to
work will not have to go to the poorhouse and
suffer the stigma of pauperization.
Instead, they will be able to draw regular
incomes from their state treasures, and while
these incomes will not be large, they will at
least keep their recipients from starvation and
VIII save their self-respect
But that is not the whole story. Accord
ing to reliable estimates, the twenty-five states
involved will find this means of caring for
the aged less expensive than the old system.
The poorhouse is not only cruel and spirit
breaking; it is outlandishly expensive.
And, incidentally. the pension laws will re-
move from the labor market those pathetic
old tob-hunters whose desperation causes them
TO agree to work for nicroscopcally low wages.
All in ALL the arguments for old age pen
sion laws are pretty strong. The remaining
twenty-six states in the Union, to say nothing
Of the national congress- would do well to
listen to them.

HOW TO HANDLE LIQUOR AFTER
REPEAL

ME Squabbles and confusion in the sew
eral states relative to the sale of beer en-
phasizes the desirability of having an ade-
quate plan ready for the control of all alco-
holc beverages before the repeal of the
eighteenth amendment is consummated.
one OF the most interesting proposals for
liquor control is the so-called "A G nlan
Tor true temperance" submitted by Congress-
man Emanuel Celler and Lewis S. Rosenstie1
The authors examine the other plans and find
In all OF them distinct objections.
The personal permit plan. which prevails
IN Canada and Scandinavian countries, is
condemned because it makes possible extensive
'lholVldual drunkenness. One person may buy
to the limit of his permit and sell to another
the latter being able to drink far beyond the
bounds of reason. This procedure also pro-
notes drinking in the home.
Even the partial success which the system
has had in Canada could not be duplicated in
the United States. Canada has far smaller
population, is a more HOMOGENEOUS country
and is more law abiding and better policed
Celler and RoSenStiel are even more critical
OF the state dispensary plan This would put
the government into the liquor business would
involve the creation of huge bureaucracy
and would build up a powerful political ma
chine capable of great potential evils and
much evasion of the law
BY and large, state monopolies of all sorts
have been failures and the liquor monopoly
presents more obvious difficulties than any
other type. Moreover, in all places where it
has Nj
been abandoned after much venality and
crime. Even the medicinal dispensary system
OF Oklahoma was thrown out by the public
after fair trial
Celler and Rosenstiel propose a program
based upon the British licensing system. The
local unit which will constitute the basis for
deciding whether liquor will be sold and how
the sale shall be administered will be the
county. The qualifications on this are that
wherever city, like New York City, embraces
more than one county. the city itself shall be
the liquor unit.
The principle of local option will be given
free rein. Each unit will vote upon whether
any liquor shall be sold. A vote shall be taken
at intervals of not less than five years, so per
cent Of the qualified voters must participate
and at least a two-thirds majority will be re-
CURED to determine the issue.
If the county or city votes for the sale of
liquor, its control shall be in the hands of a
county license board, VINO shall have full
powers to regulate the sale of liquor within
the community. Each board shall be made
up OF seven persons. to be appointed for a
term of six years by the Governor.
AS to personnel, each board of seven must
contain minister. lawyer, a physician or
chemist, merchant, an educator, a social
worker, and member of any welI-recognized
real estate board II there is none of the kst-
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-04-18

ter in the county the seventh member shall
be farmer.
Both sexes shall be represented on the
board and any persons directly or indirectly
interested in the liquor business shall be dis
qualified from serving on any license board,
There shall be three distinct types of non
competitive licenses for the sale Of liquor.
First, there shall be beer license, giving the
right to sell beer or any other alcoholic bev-
erage not in excess Of per cent by volume of
alcohol.
The second type of license is that for no.
tells, restaurants, and taverns. allowing them
to sell not only beer, but other alcoholic bev-
erages. All possible encouragement shall be
given in both cases to the use of lighter alco-
holic liquors to be consumed at the table with
food, though such procedure shall not be made
mandatory by law.
Then there shall be a bottled goods store
license, allowing the sale of all kinds of alco-
holic beverages in the original packages for
consumption off the premises.
The number of licenses permitted in any
county shall be based roughly upon the popu-
lation. Generally speaking, there might be
one beer license to every 1000 of population;
one hotel, restaurant Or tavern license to each
5000 of population, and one bottled goods
store license to every 5000 of population.
Every effort would be made to encourage
the consumption of mild liquors. In the first
place, there would be a greater number of
beer licenses issued than of any other kind
In the second place. the beer license would be
the least expensive.
In the third place, the tax on alcoholic
beverages would be directly in proportion to
the alcoholic content, with the provision that
no tax should be high enough decisively to
encourage the manufacture and sale of boot
leg liquor.
Finally. the internal revenue taxes Oh
spirituouS liquors should be graded accord
ing to proof" putting disproportionately
heavy tax on the high proof liquor
The saloon will be discouraged, secret
drinking condemned, and drinking by glass
revived, amidst healthful and temperate sur
roundings.
