cause he believed it would mean
economic ruin for the masses. He
was the leader of farmer and labor
groups.
This crusading for the masses
led him into conflict with Wall
Street, but he held his own be-
cause there have been few men in
congress who understood none
tary problems as well as he did.
In 15-minute speech he clarified
and settled a debate over Panama
canal tolls which had mystified
congress for weeks.
Poetic Tendencies
In the end, like most crusaders
of the masses, he lost popular vic
tory. He lost his fight to keep
his country out of war, lost his
struggle for monetary reform. He
went back to the midwest and
led the Non-Partisan league, which
demanded state ownership of util-
tiles.
There is this last similarity be-
tween the two. father and son:
Young Lindbergh, after his ex-
ploits to further aviation and
good will ambassadorship," went
into Mexico to explore Magyar
ruins. The elder Lindbergh, aft
er his brilliant record as a poll
tician and economic reforme :,
confessed, at last, that his great
est ambition was to have been Il

With the present congress in

tiers for the different departn.e nts,
Mr.. Angel told The Citizen there
may be some changes necessary in

These changes may necessitate

state and the status CT an indi-
vidual will be the determining fac
tor in his case.
If a customs employee has a
large family anG the change to
some other point will entail an
appreciate increase IN expenses,
he will be among ne last to be
considered for transfer.
In the case of All employee who
has bought he ., is paying for
it and will. be placed in a position
where he could not make the pay
ments and sustain his family in
another city, he viii be among the
last to be transferred.
The entire purpose of the sur.
vey, it is shown in the event
changes are made necessary. is to
transfer those employees to whom
the change will mean the least in
increased expenditures and inter-
ruptions in their economic system

Too. like the father, the sons
relations with the press have not
been exactly cordial. But, where
the son merely resented what he
thought was interference of the
newspapermen, the father de-
lighted in annoying the editors
and, at times, thrusting sarcastic
DaFbs anthem. He once advocated
the adjustment of the senate and
the vice-president merely to con-
found the newspapers. He was
highly amused to note that the
publishers agreed that it might
be a good idea at that.
Sharing Perils
The younger Lindbergh's repu-
tation for being without fear
probably was inculcated by his
father. When a boy he would
perch on his fathers shoulders as
he swan through the torrential
currents of the Mississippi near
his home. Both were quiet, I'M

The elder Lindbergh feared no

Famous Sons OF Famous Fathers
THE LINDBERCHS: STATESMAN AND AVIATOR

BY NOEL THORNTON
(By Associated PressI

NEW YORK, March Con- a
morning of 1907 a tall, spare
framed man swung in long strides
through the halls of the United
States capitol, making his way to
the house of representatives. By
his side, hand clutching tightly to
that of his father, trotted a blond
boy with clear, penetrating eyes.
The Charles A. Lindberghs had
arrived in Washington, the father
as congressman from Minnesota
and the son to see for the first
time that rostrum where he was
in later years to stand and re-
ceive the congressional medal of
honor.
Father and son, the Lindberghs,
of a sturdy Swedish-English fam
lily, resembled each other in both
physical appearance and personal
characteristics.
SSty AS6SeAASA
They were constantly together,
these two =. the son now, in a
scrawling hand, addressing envel-
Opes in his fathers office :. lat
er, the two embarking on a fort
nights canoe trip over the flood
waters of the upper Mississippi
). Then, in 1928, the son, pilot
ing his first plane, flying his father
on a senatorial campaign round
up, flight that ended when the
two cracked-up in a farmers corn
field.
The father thought of young
Charles as "uncommonly sensi-
BILE" and only smiled over the
youngsters enthusiasm for me-
chanical details in driving an
automobile to the Pacific coast.
Both Disliked School
They both disliked school, and
the extreme reticence which has
become almost synonym for the
son was manifested in the father
when he, at last decided to go to
college. He was already enrolled
at the Ann Arbof law school be-
fore even ans most intimate friends
knew that he planned to enter
the legal profession. Similarly
the son started his famous flight
to Paris without fanfare.
This reluctance to talk of him.
self came out further in the father
when he was asked for his auto
biography for the Congressional
Record. He wrote, simply: &C.
A. Lindbergh, republican, Little
Falls" even disdaining to spell
out in full his first two names.
One remembers that the son, be-
fore flying to France, asked for
letters of introduction to persons
there.
Father Not Good Mixer
The son inherited the trait of
being clone fighter" a man who
travelled and thought by himself.
A biographer wrote of the older
Lindbergh. "He was not good
mixer then or ever. He lived
too much alone"
