Liberalizes the Federal Home Loan Bank Act lso as to facilitate the unctioning of the Federal Home Loan Banks and enable their members to carry home mortgages longer terms and on an easier basis. Extends the limitation of existing law with respect to the maturity of mortgages which may be accepted collateral for advances by Fed ,era Home Loan Banks from fifteen to twenty years and makes all home mortgages up to $20,000 in amount-instead of those properties valued up

Provides that for the purposes of the Home Owners Loan Act of 1883 assessments levied upon real property by special districts organized in any State for public improvements should be treated as general-tax levies, leaving it to the Home Loan Bank Board to determine the reasonableness of the annual tax burden on property securing loans by the corporation.
 Removes the prohibition against making a de- duction from the loanable value of the property where the aggregate amount of the annual taxes levies and assessments does not exceed per cent of the value of the property as determined by the appraisal.

WAITKUS' FLIGHT.

While the world has come to think Of such things as commonplace the flight of Felix Waitkus across the Atlantic Ocean only to end in crack-up in Ireland when he ran short of gasoline some dis tance short of his Lithuana goal reveals anew mans mastery of the air and the efficiency of air. planes.
 It is but few short years since the one ana only Iindy spanned that vast expanse of water to land successfully in Paris and become the air hero of all time At that time his flight was one of distinc tion not only because did first but because he was one of the few to make it across at all Plane after plane was lost at never to be heard from again in an effort to accomplish the feat Admiral Byrd made later but cracked up the English coast Ruth Elder the first woman to try it as passenger was picked up at off the Azores. Planes yir- tually scattered from Harbor Grace to the Irish coast in those first valiant attempts Again ocean distance flying tried on the Pacific being inaugurated with the Dole flight. Here sim liar tragedies told the story of the arpanes in- efficiency at that time to meet the demand put upon it. Too well the world recalls the fate of Mildred Doran, the Michigan school teacher, who was to be the first woman to fly the Pacific as a passenger, and many others, all lost at sea.
 The last ten years has made great difference in aviation as the Waitkus flight shows. We don't even become concerned about an oceanic hop any more because they unusual only when they fail Aircraft has been so improved, navigation instru- ments have been so perfected that distance whether over sea or land has been annihated Waitkus will go down in aviation records as just another man to fly the Atlantic but to the average commercial passenger it means great deal more. It means the arpane of today gets through It means that the time is not far distant when regular commercial air lines will girdle the globe just as Lindy pre- dicted after he made the Paris hop.

IT TAKES COLOR"

Not since Dempsey and Tunney fought in Chicago has so much of that thing known in the sport world color been attached to a prize fight as the encounter last night when Joe Louis the negro, met and conquered Max Baer, the former idol Here not only actual color of white man against black but both have risen to heights in the sport ing world due to that unusual ability to do things in a colorful and dramatic manner
 That is the stuff that brings out the cash GUS toners, and made this fight one of the greatest money makers in ring history. Whether in sports or anything else color, call it what you will, but particularly that ability to do things well and with a certain finesse is a remarkable quality

 Lawyers and professors now are fortunate, for the stars presage new honors for. them as leaders among the people. Brain trusts that aid small groups are to be numerous in the coming winter when there will be much discussion of public ques- tions.
 Reaction in favor of states rights and independence is to be strong in certain parts of the country, the seers forecast. Warning is given that the conflict between federal patar- nalism and state independence will oe stubborn and will result in mud dled royalties.

Britain and Ethiopia.
Current History.)

Behind Great Britain's efforts to halt Italian aggression against Ethiopia lie very tangible inter- ests in Northeast Africa. These concern not only secure route to South Africa but also the depend- ence of Egypt and the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan upon the Ethiopian sources of the Nile and particularly upon the Blue Nile, which flows out from Lake Tsana on the Ethiopian plateau and joins the White Nile at Khartum Adequate water supply for irri- gation Is the most vital of all questions to 150OO 1000 Egyptians and to 560000O Sudanese who live under the condonium. Without it they would perish and any political development affecting the owner ship of the headwaters of the Nile is of primary importance to them
 Great Britain as the protector of Egypt and as joint ruler Of the Sudan, has followed no "muddng through" policy in regard to the Nile In fact for about four decades it has been cardinal point of British African policy that foreign power shall control the headwaters of the Nile
