COMMERCIAL AVIATION IMPROVES

The people of the United States are
used to doing things in big way. In no
line of activity has this been more graphic
ally illustrated than in aviation.
The network of air lines over our
country carried 642,OOO passengers over
100000 scheduled miles during the first
nine months of 1885, as compared with
1877 200 passengers over 100000 route
miles during the same period in 1884.
Aside from this remarkable CONNER
cial service, the thousands of extensively
trained employees of the air lines are an in
dispensable reserve for military service.
There have been mishaps in the air,
but fewer all the time, and relatively rare
when compared with the miles flown and
the passengers carried. The lessons learn
ed from each accident makes future air
transportation safer The causes are care
fully analysed in order to remove every
possible hazard.
Unfortunately, much of the publicity
on aviation accidents, which is still head
line material out of all proportion to its i'm
portance, has not been about scheduled air
line transportation, but is too often related
to irresponsible, incompetent or poorly
trained aviators. The public, in reading
press accounts, fails to make a distinction
between these two widely varied forms of
flying. This has reflected unfavorably on
scheduled air line operators, whose record
of safety, it is said, today surpasses that of
the private automobile.
1t is of the greatest Importance to the
United States both commercially and as
means of national defense, that our air
lines be encouraged in every possible man.
ner and that they continue to expand their
activities.

BRITISH REFORMS

We do not understand exactly the full
nature of the new scheme of the British
government to purchase and control the
country's coal mines, in an effort to end
private ownership of royalties which has
e,tricted thousands of miners to wages of
Sill week, but we do understand the
cry of socialism" that greets such for
ward step in the interests of wage earners.
1t is heard in every country whenever
any government attempts to do anything
in behalf of people as contrasted with
property. With all our boosted civilization
the world still worships at the shrine of
property and while there is sound basis for

there is no reason to suppose that it will
continue until the end of time.
Another piece of news from England
is that the government plans to purchase
"Queen Anne's Bounty from the church
and private holders. This hangs over from
feudal times when the first fruits and a
tenth had to be turned over to Crown. This
meant the first years profits and one
tenth annually from the tenant farmers

England for the benefit of poor clergymen.

SAVING BABIES LIVES

In the long list of accomplishments to
the credit of modern medical science per-
haps none has a greater significance than
the success attained in the reduction of
childhood deaths.
A recent writer recalls that Queen
Anne of England, born in 1864, bore II
children, only one of whom lived more
than a year, and he died at the age of IL
Now large families of children often
mature without DEATH
Through medical education and the
treatment of early defects, the child's
chance of reaching maturity has been
greatly increased, especially during the
last half century. The heightened average
span of human life which now prevails is
largely due to the reduction of mortality
among infants.
In addition to regularly. employed
physicians and nurses of public health
units, thousands of volunteer workers are
cooperating in the noble tasks of saving
babies lives
For their effective efforts in this and
other directions looking to the preservation
of human life, the medical profession and
those cooperating are entitled to the high
est praise.
