Ann lifted her fingers, touched

burning brightly beneath those
long, dark eyelashes. For a mo-
ment, a mad, impulsive moment,
she had forgotten everything ex-
cept the fact that Kipp had come
back, that he was standing there
so close to her that she could
reach out her hand and touch
him.
But now she remembered that
she didn't want to touch him.

China's Unknown Hero.

A strange story Of sacrifice comes
from China. According to it a name
less, unknown peasant in the province
of Anhwei last December gave his life
for that of an infant prisoner, the
child of two missionaries who had Just
been murdered by Communists. This
man himself had been taken prisoner
by the bandits, who, having dis
patched the parents, were about to
slay the little orphan as well when
he pleaded for its life. The chief Of
the band asked: "Who will forfeit his
life for the child?" This man, who
had just been released himself, vol
unteered and was killed on the spot.
The baby was spared and after the re-
treat Of the reds was found in an
abandoned house, and Is now in the
care Of her grandparents at Tsinanfu.
No one will ever know this mans
name, and If it were known it would
not be identifying. He was unknown
even to his captors. He was just one
of the almost literally countless mil
lions of Chinese people. Just what
strange impulse Of humanity stirred
him cannot be told. Perhaps 1t was q
feeling of shame for the wanton de-
struction of life, especially Of life that
had been given Tor the succor Of

evident that this trial would be q
magnet for the morbid-minded.
This is a grave case, perhaps the
most sensational in the legal history
Of the United States. The crime itself
shocked the Nation as have few
breaches Of the law In the long past.
Every circumstance tended to arouse
public curiosity. The psychological
aspects Of the trial increased the in
terest. The testimony has been printed
practically verbatim by hundreds OF
newspapers and millions Of readers
have followed it with intentness from
day to day, from hour to hour. It
has not been necessary to flock to
Pennington and jam the court room
in order to hear almost literally every
word spoken. And 1t was known In
advance that this would be the case,
so that with a little forethought this
shameful spectacle could have been
prevented. 1t is now the hope that
henceforth the trial of Bruns Haupt-
mann will not be turned into a ver-
liable vaudeville show.

Aircraft Orders.
From the Los Angeles Times


One thing We may expect to see
In the year 1935-and 1t means much
to the industrial progress of Southern
California-is large increase in the
manufacture Of aircraft and all equip
ment connected with the business of
flying. The extensive program Of the
Army Air Corps and the determina-
ton Of the War Department to pro-
vide the country with adequate avia-
ton protection are the two main fac
tors in the coming activity. CONNER
cial aviation, however. promises to add
a lot Of new orders to the books of
the aircraft-construction companies.
OF these orders many important ones
are being placed with Southern Cali
fornia builders. BY the end Of the
year the Douglas Aircraft Corp. of
Santa Monica will have under con-
tract the construction of II observa-
ton planes for the War Department,
to cost s1.655,3s4. In addition. con-
tracts have been awarded the North
rop Corp. Of Inglewood for 10 attack
planes to cost 81, ,896, 400. The Lock-
heed Aircraft Corp. at Burbank. In
the commercial flying field, Is making
its mark with its new speedy Lockheed
Electras, more Of which have been
ordered by the Northwest Airlines for
fast mail service
The new year opens, therefore. very
propitiously for continued progress in
aviation for Southern California
builders and operators. We are In
measurable distance Of the goal we
set some years ago, to have Los Angeles
known as duplicating In the sir the
name Detroit has won on the road.

relatively recent tribes. The peculiarly
Clipped Folsom" arrowpoint Is be-
neved to have been made by the
earliest known inhabitants of North
America who may have been con-
temporaneous with the end Of the ice
age. Discovery of them with remains
Of later cultures Is confusing.
But, says Dr. Roberts, the collecting
Of antiques and curios is by no means
confined to the white race. Probably
before Columbus Indian braves, notic-
ing curiously carved objects lying
about, would carry them home as per-
children. These would be preserved
carefully and remain for archeologists
Of the future while evidences of the
real culture Of the primitive antigua
rians might disappear.
The greatest popularity Of the Fol-
som point is its grooved center. It Is
curious, DR.. Roberts points out, that
quite similar design was used in
the bayonets issued to American SOL
diers during the war. Its purpose, in
either case, is debatable. Some
archeologist maintain that the groove
was for the purpose OF fastening the
arrow head more securely to its shaft.
Others say that 1t was Clipped out,
with great labor, so that blood could
flow more freely from a wounded
animal.
These earliest Americans, DR.. Rob-
ertS says, hardly could have been an
extremely primitive people since their
flint chipping required a technique
equal to that required of the skilled
craftsman today.

How the Boycott
Started in Ireland
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
In your issue of 25th instant there
appear two letters from Irish Free
State men by names Mr.. Sean
ODoherty and Mr.. ], Sweeney. I
will not discuss these letters further
than to say: Convince a man against
his will and he's Of the same opinion
STILL" ] will, however, ask permis-
sion to deal with a subject which is
Of vital Importance to the well-being
Of the people in this great country,
and, no doubt, other countries. It
refers to the rufflanly habit Of boy
cotting, which has spread TO an alarm
ing extent In the United States Of
America. The following is the story,
and its accuracy cannot be disputed.
Boycotting derives its name from
Capt. Boycott, who was stationed in
County Mayo, Irish Free State, In
charge of the estate Of Lord Erne, an
Irish nobleman. It is stated the
agent gave offense to the people dur
ing a land agitation in 1881, but in
connection with this let it be under
stood that every landlord was accused
of giving offense at that time. No
one would gather in his crops and
he was socially outlawed by refusal to
sell to or buy from him, refusal to
work for or employ them. This was
the condition when 60 Orangemen
in Northern Ireland organized relief
expedition. each man carrying a re-
volver. The government gave them
a strong escort of cavalry, infantry
and police, with artillery added on
the return journey. The crops were
gathered in and sent away and Capt
Boycott was taken to a region OF
security. He died In 1897, but his
name still lives as a black mark on
the County Mayo. Had he not gotten
away he would have been murdered
as were some landlords and public
men at that period of Free State his
tory
When quiet, well-disposed workers
are prevented from earning their nv-
ing by gangs of toughs it is surely
time that the lawmakers should move
to prevent a repetition of conditions
existing during the recent textile
strikes, where many mills were kept
closed to the serious detriment oi
all lines of business.
Thus you readers will learn a little
about boycotting. which was born in
the Free State of Ireland.

A Shameful Spectacle.

Whatever the outcome of the trial
OF Bruno Hauptmann at Remington,
N. j., 1t should result in the adoption
of precautions in every court in this
country against the repetition of the
scenes that have attended this case
from the outset. The. spectacle that
has been there presented from the
frst day has been scandal and a
disgace to the American people. The
court room has been packed with
spectators, drawn to the scene to see
a man tried for his life for hideous
crime.
These sensation seekers have not
been concerned over the issue of the
case as it affects the maintenance of
law and the public security. They
have gone, with the rarest Of excep-
tions, In the hope of witnessing
"scenes" such as that of yesterday,
when the prosecutor and the de-
fendant nearly came to blows in the
course Of cross-examination They have
packed the room almost to suftoca-
ton, impeding the course of the trial,
indulging in unseemly outbreaks of
laughter at sallies of counsel and an
swers of witnesses. Tickets of admis-
sion have been intrigued for and it
Is whispered even that they have had
a commercial value. So great has
been the pressure Of attendance that
q local church has set up a lunch
room on its own premises and has
made large profit out of the venture
of catering to the physical appetites

LincOln's Greenbacks
Versus Interest-Bonds
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
When President Lincoln had issued
$3.50 600, 900 Of greenback currency as
part payment Of the Civil War debt,
was that imitation? That issue of
greenbacks cost no interest and was a
Nationwide help to labor, producers,
farmers, American business Of all
kinds. Later on, when this friend Of
all Americans was In the bosom of
Abraham" the then "malefactors of
great wealth" and their coworkers
effected withdrawal of millions of dol
lars of greenbacks out of circulation,
out Of the working, producing Ameri
cans hands and caused a panic.
If $3.50, 100000 more of Civil War
bonds had been issued instead of
greenbacks the interest on those bonds
would have been millions more of
dollars plus the principal of the bonds,
national indebtedness.
Our nice little, neat little panic of
1921, after the World War, was also
caused by withdrawal from the people
at large millions of dollars out of
circulation.
If Lincoln's issue of $3.50, ,00o, 900 of
greenbacks was not imitation, but. to
the contrary. relief and help to the
Nation at large, why not Treasury
currency notes now. backed by gold
and silver, in lieu Of $4,000. .000, 900
Of interest-costing, non-taxable,
MISUNDERSTANDING bonds?
These bonds will add billions of dol
lars of principal and interest to an
overburdened. taxed people, their
children, children's children and q
new mountain Of observation-disclosures
to our $31 900 900, ,o0o-plus national
debt now. Who will answer this query
Of mine? Who will give reason for
non-issue Of Treasury notes? In
fiation2 Then what are $4,000, ,000,-
900 new bonds? w. e. RYAN.

escent properties. Depending upon
the laws Of physics, they work ac-
cording to immutable regulations laid
down in the beginning. u
Hence. 1t Is easily enough under
stood that no actual action can be
done as swiftly as one can see it done
in the mind. Yet at this very point
so many humans fall down with what
used to be called, In the comic song,
q bang. They waive the point, they
expect the one ordered or asked, In
good Yankee fashion, TO DO tning
to do 1t instanter.
They will do themselves good, as
well as others, by solemnly address,
ing themselves, In their own minds,
and speaking up for tranquility and
patience, also in their own minds.
These qualities are not OF the heart.
as we were taught. The heart Is
Just o hard-working pump. 1t Is no
seat Of thought, emotions or moral
qualities.
The mind Is what does these things,
II they are done at all. Perhaps II
is not quite the thing to speak Of
patience and tranquility as being
done" We are used to thinking Of
them as God-given qualities. In some
characters, and so they are. truly
enough, In one way, and In some
sweet souls.
The rest of us, however, will have
to work hard to be patient. We must
sweat blood, almost, to be tranquil.
II we but cultivate them one-etghth
of an inch toward perfection. we
have achieved something indubitable.
II n
Just how one goes about building
up these qualities Is another matter.
Prayer has been tried. and some
report 1t an efficacious method, out
1t is not for all persons.
The great average person, famous
because there are so many OF MIN,
often needs a method more OF the
everyday In which he lives most OF the
time.
He will find pure thinking his ally.
1t is possible for the mildly choleric
person, who expects others to do In
stantly what he thinks up for them
to do. to remind himself constantly
that time Is the essence OF things
hoped for.
He must tell himself firmly that 1t
takes more time to do q thing than
to think a thing.
He must keep on hammering away
at the idea that the other person Is
not inefficient. Thought In itself Is
super -eficient. that Is all.
The mind pictures a thing to be
done. gives commands. and then
rather foolishly wants 1t done In the
same way. by mysterious processes OF
thought.
This all-important mind must tell
itself, time and time again, If 1t
slyly feels 1t needs admonishing. that
the more deliberate we ourselves are
the more speedy we expect the other
fellow to be.
Along this line of reasoning 1t
might be fair to suspect that "efn-
cheney experts" now happily no
longer in popular esteem. were men
suffering from the jitterS at the
thought of doing things themselves.
So they shrewdly set themselves UP
to tell others what to do and how,
especially how long it ought to take
them
Evidently they were impatient,
slightly choleric souls at bottom, men
who needed to reprove themselves
every morning and take their hearts
to task every night. 1t would have
been good for them and 1t viii be
good for all those who may need such
self-correction now.

Paw Cut Restoration.

Yesterday the Senate IN its con-
sideration of q deficiency appropria-
ton bill adopted without roll call an
amendment which restores as Of April
/, instead Of July /, as the President
proposed in his budget message, the
full pay schedule Of the Government
services. originally cut by fifteen per
cent, Of which one-third was restored
February l.. 1894, and another third
July / last. II has been expected
that the final restoration would be
effected in July. Thus the action Of
the Senate, concurred in by the
House, will anticipate the resumption
of the full pay scale by three months.
The original pay cut was made as
q means of reducing Government ex-
penses and IN an effort TO balance the
budget. 1t was indicated that resto-
ration would be based upon increases
In the cost Of living. Commodity
prices have risen steadily during the
past year and the action Of the
Senate is predicated upon the expec-
tation that by the first Of April the
cost scale will have advanced to the
point which will justify a full restora-
t,o,, Short NJ eyec,tjve nrohihition
which is not expected. the deficiency
bill will thus re-establish the basic
rates of compensation, with material
relief to thousands who have been
severely affected by this measure Of
economy, which has at no time
seemed justified in view Of the
extravaganza of governmental expen-
ditures in the great expansion Of New
Deal activities.
