that the American commercial

commercial aviation in the

Cleansing Service
The terrific torch of truth,
borne by Colonel Lindbergh's
testimony, Scorches all those
alien intriguerS and their dupes
who are doing their best to
destroy the foreign market for
American aircraft, and to Grip
pie American air transport as
a vital auxiliary Of the national
defense by broadcasting the
falsehoods Colonel Lindbergh
refuted, and by Slandering him
as traitor to the cause who
sold out American aviation's
birthright for a mess of pot
tage" because they knew he
could and would expose their
wicked schemes.
The flames from the same
terrific torch will perform an
other cleansing service if they
scorch from public into private
life and from the front page
to a deserved obscurity those
greedy publicity seekers and
those fatuous politicians in
Congress who have long been
guilty of soiling the Congress
sional Record and the printed
hearings of congressional COM
mittees with the bought-and-
paid-for propaganda against
our Army and Navy of alien in
triguers and their domestic
dupes.

Il the people in the glass
works at Corning, New York,
want to spend their time max
ing that 200-inch mirror for a
telescope, that's their affair.
MY only warning to them would
be: Remember the man who
built a glass tube a mile long,
and then broke it,"
The telescope will cost six
million dollars and will enable
scientists to look at objects,
one thousand million light
wears distant from this earth,
but that glass tube, q mile long,
was built to measure the We
locity Of light, and was a good
idea, too. And now look at it!
Perhaps you will recall that,
q year or so ago, one Of the
Pasadena scientists completed
this miracle Of glass blowing.
He had been working on it for
what seemed like ages, and had
kept getting it longer and
longer, until finally he sue
ceeded in stretching it out to
O full mile in length. That's
pretty long for a glass tube,
especially il it is going to be
broken.
The newspaper account at
the time, didn't say in which
direction the tube went, or
whether the State Of California
had to exercise its right Of
eminent domain to confiscate
Pasadena kitchens and living
rooms for it to run through.
Anyway, working out in a gen.
eral easterly, or westerly, di-
rection from the laboratories,
it extended $3.50 feet, and
somebody cared an awful lot
about it.
I don't remember who broke
It finally, but I know that I
wouldn't want to be in his
shoes. I am afraid that he had
been drinking, and just tripped
over it. After months Of people

ing in the Federal City, a mod
est young American gave testi-
mony the other day that
scorched the slanderers of our
defenders who fly the colors-
the living and the unnecessary
dead-aS only truths terrific
torch can burn.
Colonel Lindbergh began his
testimony by vindicating the
valor and the skill of those
heroic victims of what has been
denounced in both houses of
Congress as "legalized murder"
the officers of the Army Air
Corps who were needlessly sacri-
ficed in a futile attempt to con-
ceal a colossal blunder. And
since he testified, the eleventh
victim of that tragic mistake
has paid the price-Lieut. r. G.
Richardson, Army Air Corps re-
serve pilot. He was killed
March II at Cheyenne, Wyo., in
the plunge of his plane while
preparing to carry the mail.
Leads the World
Having done justice to the
dead, Colonel Lindbergh then
did justice to the living by refut-
ing the ISLANDERS of alien
intriguers and their dupes about
the 1nferiority of American air
transport and American aircraft
and its equipment.
Replying to a request for his
opinion as to what was the most
serious phase of the recent can
collation. Of all domestic air con-
tracts, Colonel Lindbergh said:
cot course, in my mind, the
most serious thing is this action
eUen Without a hearing.
"But from an aviation stand
point we hGOe built in this
country, Without a doubt, the
best commercial aOi0tion in the
wOrld. There is no other cOun-
try, nor any other group Of
countries, that compares with
American commercial aviation.
''NOw, to break doWn the
system, which is really the
backbone of our commercial
aviation, has seemed to me an
extremely serious blOW to the
industry, and, I believe, it WiH
take a long time to get back to
the position Where We OeTe in
the beginning of the year"
Then followed this exchange
of questions and answers be-
tween Colonel Lindbergh and
Senator Barbour of New Jersey,
a member of the committee
which invited the Colonel to
the witness stand:

investments in building and
machinery.
Those who in the past have
enjoyed the largest incomes,
have seen them dwindle to a
small fraction. Of what they
once were.
With so many forces, Federal,
civic and industrial, striving for
a certain definite result, how
can anyone fail to predict that
1884 will be better than 1888.
So be optimistic. -

Federal Pau Restoration Would Not Be Waqe Increas

the many other elements which should impel the Gov
ernment to accept the McCarran amendment it is well
for the conferees to bear in mind the fact that that
amendment is not "pay raise" in any sense of the
word
In fact far real wages concerned it is doubt
full if the adoption of the McCarran amendment would
place Government salaries keel with the ad
vancing cost of living.
It is hoped that the conferees will realize this and
will understand clearly that in accepting the McCarran
amendment compromise between the differing
votes of the two houses they not giving the Fed
eral workers anything.
This is no form of charity. It is no scheme of phi
lanthropy.
When the Is per cent slash was proposed the Gov
ernment employees told that because of the then
condition of Federal finances it essential for them
to accept the cut contribution to the welfare of
the country
In good faith the Government workers did just that
In effect they waived the basic schedules put their
hands into their pockets and made gift to the Govern
ment

NO ENDORSEMENT YET

One Of the frequent statements of those professional
statesmen who want to make over the social and economic
fabric of America is that the election of 1882 was a man.
date from the people to ~"readjust relationships among
our old institutions, to overhaul them, to repair them, to
make them work if they could be made to work, to modi-I
fly them when they fail to function and to demonstrate by
the old method of trial and error which Of those institu-
tons could be readiusted to the new economic environ
ment of the postwar world'-the quotation is from Pro-
fessor Tugwell, as reported by the metropolitan press.
This may well lead one to wonder just how much of an
idea of the present "New Deal" the average voter cleaned
from the campaign of 1892. Certainly the platform of the.
successful party in that election contained no explication
of the Brain Trust ideas. This platform contained a pledge
to reduce government expenditures by % per cent, bal
ance the budget, preserve sound money standards, adopt
a competitive tariff law and strictly enforce the antitrust
laws. None of these pledges have been carried into effect.
Perhaps it was impossible to carry them into effect. But
at any rate it can hardly be said that the election issues
we're fought out on the program that is now being carried
out.
The voters will have a chance to pass on the New Deal
idea, to an extent, in the congressional elections next fall
If they vote to support the New Deal then the New Deal
ers will have the first endorsement of their program.
In his recent radio address Prof. Tugwell, assistant.
secretary of Agriculture, spoke about our surplus crops
which the rest of the world no longer want, while Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wallace insists we can get back our
world markets by tariff adjustments. Now how about it?
Have we lost our foreign markets for good, or have we?
1t occurs to us that the AAA boys ought to get together
at this and arrive at some decision before they go any
further. }

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
WHY ISN'T 1T FAIR?

The measure pending in the South Carolina gen-
eral assembly to establish estate authority" to
develop the Santee-Co Cooper power and navigation
project, with federal loans, contains provision
that electric energy sold must be at rates based
upon the taxes which such project would pay II
in private hands
And to that provision Senator Henry r. Sims, OF
Orangeburg raises vigorous objection in an edi-
toria article in the Orangeburg Times and Demo-
crat He thinks it is not fair and concession to
the power trust"
But why is it not entirely proper policy to
base rates in such developments upon all the costs
which private enterprises must pay, including
taxes? Should not such an enterprise stand entire
ly on it's own bottom in an economic sense? And
if we make no allowance for taxes in the fixing OF
rates does that not mean that the taxpayers, some
where somehow, are paying in some degree for
the electric energy which private consumers puf-
chase? Should the state or the federal government
establish an enterprise of the same nature, make
its rates lower by reason of exemption from taxes
and thus convey the impression that rates OF pri-
vately owned concerns too high? broad
question of public policy is involved in this mat
teF-that of whether or not we should provide
electric energy to consumers partly at the expense
of taxpayers by making plants taxfree. And If we
are to adopt such policy, would 1t not logically
follow that equitable principles demand that prl-
vate concerns of this kind also be tax-free-unleSs
we wish to destroy, in part at least, the invest
ments made by private capital in these utility en-
terprises.-GreenvIe Is c. News
