Lindberdh's First FLiQht

~ INDBERGH teegraphed his son. who was fly
Ling an army Jenny plane in the south, to come
to Minnesota and drive him in the plane so he could
cover more territory and attract larger crowds
Finally one balmy May afternoon, when we were
conducting meeting at the Playground IN Marshall
we heard the drone of a motor in the sky and few
minutes later the future Colonel Lindbergh landed
in nearby field.
L RODE in the plane to Redwood Falls, our sched-
ued evening meeting and distributed literature from
the plane Next day father and son flew to Glencoe
their first airplane ride together That afternoon
when the colonel was going to take off, he hit con-
cealed ditch on the Miley farm and cracked up, so
the airplane method of campaigning came to an
abrupt end"
1 wish Mr.. Qugley had described the incident IN
rather more detail. 1t would have been interesting
to know what Charles A Lindbergh Jr. thought then
of his fathers fervid speeches in favor of govern
ment ownership. Possibly the young man was ia
miliar with his passion for human rights. He may
have heard him speaking when his father was in the
house.
But this was the last campaign and Charles A.
Indberghs last flight He died the next spring. And
that was the end of his message. There was no one
to take his place.

ridicule such as Moliere and Vol

of nations and civilizations.
EIREBRAND, reformer, and au-
Il thor, Voltaire stirred the
rumblings that were consummated
in the French revolution. He be-
gan his flamboyant career by
writing libelous poems, quarreling
with a nobleman, and fleeing into
English exile.
The pleaSure-loving Marie An
toinette was queen. The weak
Willed Louis XVI was king. Vol
taire was the commentator and the
critic of the period, and Voltaire
spared no blows in his battle for
liberation of the human mind"
from the debased spectacle of
French life.
His most famous work is Can
dide," written in a clear ironic
vein. The satiric line, This is
the best of all possible worlds"
has been flung down the years by
persons comparing the bland as
Surances of statesmen and the hu-
man misery about them.

Thelma Temple plays "the girl"

tines.
Joe Evans is eXcellently enter

numbers and makes hit as the

of the comedy scenes.
The show also has the services
of the Honey Boys, four black

their presentations. The tenor of
the quartet sings one number,
"At the Bottom OF the Hill," with
unusual skill and punch.
The Chester Hale girls, sixteen

king dance routines, in which
there is a great deal of glitter and
glamour.
The picture on view this week,
Lets Be Ritzy," is the story of a
group of four-flushers whose
activities lead them almost to
ruin.
The featured players are Lew
Ayres, Patricia Ellis, Frank Nc
Hugh and Isabel Jewel.
Ayres and Miss Ellis portray
the parts of Jimmie and Ruth, a
boy with ambition and a girl with
aspirations, who get married and
find that two can't live as cheap

covery Ruth goes back to work.

The older daughter, played by

Damroy, tells the landlord that
Jimmie is the incognito son of a
millionaire. The landlord falls for
the gag and he uses Jimmie'S
fathers name to cover a deficiency
of his own by telling his banker
that he is taking Jimmie into
partnership with him.
But house party at the home
of the landlord serves as the set
ting for the blow-up of all the
schemes. And if it wasn't for the
hard-nosed old boss of Jimmies,
the picture might have ended
tragically.
Ayres is fair in this picture.
Miss Ellis makes a pretty heroine.
The comedy of McHugh and Miss
Jewel is extremely Well-handled.
This picture will probably not
be one of the ten best" but it is
a good, comfortable snow and has
its own merits. 80

In the "Misanthrope," Alceste,
wearying of society's falsenesS,
seeks to retire into solitude. Low
ing the coGuetish widow, Cell
meme, he pleads with her to aban-
don her other lovers and marry
him.
Celimene says blandly, "Do you
blame me because others love
me? Can 1 help being thought
amiable? And when people come
to see me and try to be pleasant,
am l to take stick to drive them
aWay?"
Despite his ideals of conduct,
Alceste degrades himself by for
giving ICelimene, even when she
is convicted of having written
compromising letters. Tortured
by his love, which is conflicting
harshly with his ideals, Alceste
breaks away from Celimene.

Il life, smelling of intrigue and

height during Molieres lifetime.
A cardinal ruled the throne. Men

with his sardonic wit.
His contemporaries bitterly at

dealt him. His satire on the
clergy, "Tartuffe, was banned for
several years and a storm of pro-

and tried to seduce his wife, but

tried to keep business and politics separate, and the
effect was that kept out of politics altogether,
except merely to vote to give politicians power When
we get down to brass tacks, however we will dis
cover that business and politics should go hand in
hand and should not be separated
And Lindbergh very definite in making
specific application of that principle in memoran-
dunn which he sent to the President of the United
States. He said:
81 The federal government must establish a
financial system that is independent of private
monopoly control.
% The federal government must own and oper-
ate the main lines in the telegraph and telephone
systems.
g. The federal government must own and oper-
ate all the transportation systems"
And Lindbergh amplfed this third point in his
brief platform by explaining: Mr.. President, no
agency is more important than transportation,
though it has not the controlling influence on COM
rnerce that finances have as finance is now regu-
lated The free interchange of commodities between
the people is of the utmost Importance, and travel
as well. Therefore, all transportation should be as
near to actual cost is possible to have it. That
being the case, the government alone couId hanole

Possibilities of Ultra-Short Wave
Examined by Soviets.

Russia is probing the potentialities
OF the ultra short radio waves, &C
cording to a report in the Economic
Review of the Soviet Union. Not only
the radio communications possibilities
but the adaptation of radio to other

transmission from radio to wires, and
vice versa, and a multiple short wave
