It took Is federal agents, all. *

they got him by surprise. thanks to a
woman's Tip that he was to be in a
certain theater," q tip supposed to
have been well paid for. It was no
detective work." Dillinger vas killed
as he had killed others, without a
chance Of escape, like a trapped coyote,

The War departments special avia-
ton committee says the army should
have 1890 planes, with corresponding
increases in flying men. 1t also says
there should not be one department
controlling all air forces, which Is
pitiful idiocy.
Mr.. Baker must remember what hap
pened when he a secretary Of war
and the flying machines Of this country
sent to Europe were a joke among ma
lions, u flying men compelled to Dor
row from France and England planes
that would really fly.
However, the big men in the army
and navy are not flyers, and feel that
they should have their little separate
flying units to play with.
From somewhere in the Pacific Pres
ident Roosevelt sends an order that
$15,OOO,OOO be set aside now, $75.OOO.-
600 in all, spent IN a made to order"
forest, stretching across this country
through the heart Of the drouth area
from the Canadian border to the Texas
Panhandle. Planned as IN experiment
to counterfeit the drouth by encourag-
Ing rainfall, the new forest will be
1000 miles long, 100 miles wide, 10O.-
600 square miles of forest surface.
It will be a long time before any
body knows about the plans success.
The President and those around him
will have disappeared. will not see the
big forest, and before it amounts to
much men may have learned to pro-
duce rain when necessary. It is an
Interesting experiment, costing only
$75,OO0.0OO, q mere nothing In these
days.
Henry Ford says:
"Ol~d-fashioned Americanism, the
pioneer spirit that isn't afraid to
tackle anything, will save this nation
from its economic and social afflic-
TONS"
Perhaps Henry Ford, who lives some
distance from the fringe of American
~foolishness, gives his fellow citizens
credit for too much Of the old "Ameri-
a spirit"
When you read that 100000 chill
dren are deprived of schooling in the
United States, that this country spends
for "luxuries" twice as much as It
spends on education, you think that
possibly something has happened to
that pioneer spirit" The Talmud
says, Jerusalem was destroyed be-
aus the schools were neglected"
Conditions In Vienna are bad, with
more dangerous riots expected as Nazi
terrorism continues its bomb explo- |
sions. Nazis in Austria declare that
'Roman Catholic priests led Chancel-
lor Dollfuss In his campaign against |
the Nazis," and a Nazi spokesman de-
clares that Nazis shave determined to
kidnap the Roman Catholic priests a
hostages" As o o as any Nazi ter
rorists r sentenced to death, and
hanged. their friends will kill the
priests held as hostages.
Mr.. and Mrs. Peters Che was might
man" In a small Hoboken, N. J., lunch
room) won $25,516 In a sweepstake
lottery and felt that they should show
that winning, in a lottery, is a good
thing. They drove to collect their
money in a rented 16-cylinder car with
q liveried chauffeur, and Opened"
champagne.
Any expert accountant can show
them that 4 per cent IN $25,516 will
not stand that strain. Some "get-rich-
quick" expert will probably show them
how to change $25.516 into $1O,OOO,OOO
then Mr.. Peters will be might man"
again.
Germany has real troubles, some fac
tories closing, hours reduced, because
OF lack of raw materials. 1t isn't that
other countries refuse to sell raw ma
terials to Germany, but that Germany
lacks cash and credit. Hundreds Of
are said to be added to the
number OF unemployed.
