Tommy almost waltZed as she
went out. She raced around back
of the hangar where Tay's little
shop was located and banged on
the door.
Get out!" Tay shouted.
Boo! You big brute!" she
shrilled at him, through the key
hole.
"Hey-wait, Tommy"
He ran and opened the door.
Thought it was some snoop-
ers, Tommy. Did Lee beat you
up?"
Hes wonderful, Tay-he was
awful nice. Sort Of bawled me
out about reports, then grinned
at me and said he knew no one
had told me. He says may go

a chance. That means you"

He called at Mrs. Barnes office

prise and approval. He was an

wearing a navy blue suit with

He drove her over to Mama

But Tommy, I thought"
I'm ahead Of you, Tay. I guess
I do love you, but can't quit just
when I have started. I am making
good already as hostess"
"Mr. Lee is going to let me have
every opportunity to learn to fly

They said that it was a promise
and they went through the age old
ritual Of sealing the promise with
kisses.
So that was the understanding
between Tommy Thomas and Tay
Lawson. Tommy continued to
make her flights as hostess
aboard the big Boeing passenger
planes, and to go up with various
flyers in the training planes when.

chanics of it all. He worked on
his models for the constant i'm.

was practically invaluable to the

Winter was setting in. Tommy
thought that this might give her
more opportunity to get in q
little training until Tay pointed
out that the same sort Of weather
that kept the passenger planes
down also kept the training
planes down.
Jack Lee was making good as
division superintendent.
He was putting his whole heart
and mind in his work. There was
friction here and there. Jake was
too modest to go on record as to
his opinion of some Of these newly
turned-out aviatorS, but he was
convinced that many Of them
were being turned out only half
trained. II he said much by way
of comparing them with the flyers
Of 10 to 10 years ago he was
afraid people would say that he
was getting old-fashioned.
Then there was the vice preSi-
dent of the company, or one OF
them, AL Stone. He was capable
enough in his way, but his actual
flying was only in theory. Desk
flyers" the boys called his type.
Now and then he had a mild run
in with Jake.
The thing that hurt Jake more
than all else was that he had to
fire the incompetents. Outwardly,
Jake was a grim, hard man. In
Wardly he was as tender-hearted
as a child.
Most of his men, like his old pal,
Tex Clark, he could depend upon,
His home life was perfection.
He had married Mary Miller, an
East Orange girl, only four years
before this. There was no doubt
that it was a love match. Mary
had a great many friends and &C
quaintanceS among the aviatorS,
but when Jake came along, he
promptly swept her off her feet.
There was one thing that hurt
Lakeland Tex Clark, for that
matter-and that was the sight of
poor Mike Owens pottering about
the administration buildings. Mike
had been an old-time flyer with
them, overseas. He was later a
mail flyer. One night, in dense
fog, and before there were so many
safety devices as at present, he
crashed into a forest and smashed
against tree. His mind had never
been clear after this. Jake saw to
it that he was kept on the pay
roll, although he was little more
than a janitor, and a rather poor
one at that.
Then an item in the papers
caught Jake's eye. It concerned
Dizzy Davis, who had a mail
route out from Denver. Dizzy
had been in an automobile smash
at a time when he was supposed
to be off on sick leave. To
make it worse, there was a
woman in the car with him, and
evidences that liquor had been in
the car, as well. The woman'S
name was not given, but out
there everyone knew who she
was because the news item stated
that she was the wife of a Con.
gresham.
The Congressman evidently
brought pressure to bear an d
Dizzy Davis was out of lob
In that district.
This hurt Jake Lee because he
was always loyal to Dizzy. He
knew that Dizzy could out-fly an
army Of modern aviators. He
knew, also, that he had some
mighty weak links in his own
division Of filters.
Jake said nothing at all about
his plans. He knew that there
might be protests, later, but he
intended to bring Dizzy on to the
Newark airport and give him a
Job in his division.
Instead of putting through a
long distance call from the main
office. Jake went to 2 small

News Behind the News
Rdmpdrts of Philadelphia Guffey
Sells His Idea Those Electoral
Votes =.

PHILADELPHIA - Occasionally but seldom.
a Democratic delegate stopped to ask himself:
why are we here instead of having this
convention in San Francisco, st. Louis or Drop
ped Egg, Vt?"
The answer is that Senator Joe Guffey has
once more sold the Democratic high command
on the belief that its national ticket can carry
the state of Pennsylvania - traditional rock
ribbed stronghold of Republcanism and chief
among the SIX states which refused to ioin the
Roosevelt landslide Of 1882.
All the ballyhoo out of Philadelphia is
aimed at the nations in general but specifically
at Philadelphia and the eastern part of the
state, where Landon will run strongest.
1t was Guffey, then only Democratic lead
er in western Pennsylvania, who in 1928 per-
suaded the politically naive John Raskob that
Al Smith could snatch this state from Herbert
Hoover. Raskob sent in half million dollars
on that sayso.
The records all say that Hoover beat Smith
by a million votes. -Four years later Farley be-
ueved the same story, spent plenty of money
here and Roosevelt lost by only $4,000.
Politically, it is very important to know
whether Guffey Farley, and Roosevelt have
been fooled once more.
Pennsylvania's 36 electoral votes are second
in number only to New York's As. She may
properly be considered doubtful state Al
though some Republicans deny this.
Her pivotal character is obvious.
Inquiry on the scene reveals that if there
is any area where the campaign will take on the
aspects Of what some politicians have referred
to as "caSs war; it will be in Pennsylvania
On one side the chief protagonists will be
the induStrialiStS of the State-WhoSe leader is
Joseph R. Grundy, the great tariff lobbyist; the
Melons and their vast holdings in coal, alumni
mum. oil banks. and public utilities-represent-
ed politically and legally by ex-senator David
A Reed; the Pew oil family, which is spending
money as if in a holy war; and host of we'll
to-do conservatives to whom the New Deal is
anathema.
The outstanding single factor on the other
side is President John L. Lewis of the United
Mine Workers of America. who conceiyaby can
deliver $4,000 votes and who is battling agrees
Sively for Roosevelt
The Democratic state machine is far strong
er than ever before. since all the federal patron
age and about 10000 state joos are now in
Democratic hands-to say nothing of the WPA
organization, which Democratic politicians have
nursed carefully.
In 1884 Guffey and George Earle upset dec
AIDES of Republican rule and were elected senator
and governor by respective majorities of $4,000
and .000
The key to the Pennsylvania situation is in
Philadelphia and surrounding counties Guffey
may exaggerate privately when he promises to
run up a majority Of 10000 in western Pennsyl-
vania, but political writers agree that Roosevelt
will come east with an edge and that his vic
tory or defeat will depend on the size of the
adverse majority he finds in Philadelphia

CITIZENSHIP IS
NOT, ALL RECEIVING

Citizenship in the United States is
very real asset Several residents of
Imperial county have discovered this
truth in the last few months-after it
is too late. Others have discovered It
throughout the United States.
In Holtville there is a man 66 years
old who has been a resident of the Unit
ed States since he was 13 years of age.
Yet he is subject of His Royal Maies-
ty, King Edward-not a citizen of the
United States. Through carelessness,
since he is otherwise a desirable resident,
this man has neglected through the
years to take steps toward becoming a
citizen. Perhaps unintentionally he shirk-
ed the duties which attach to citizenship.
Now he wants to take advantage of
the old age pension offered by the state
of California. In all other ways he is
eligible, yet he cannot receive the pen
sion because he is not citizen.
In the Bard district of eastern I'M
perial county there is an old couple,
model citizens of their community. high
ly respected and entirely willing to
work. Through an unfortunate accident
the husband was injured recently. There
is no one on whom they can depend, no
one to whom they can turn. They are
eligible for old age penSions-eXcept for
one thing.
They are citizens of the United States
but for many years they have found it
advisable to maintain official residence
and voters registration in Arizona,
across the river, rather than in the
state in which they live. Taxes, for one
thing and other business reasons. They
are not citizens of California, so they are
not eligible for the states old age pen
sion.
Recently judge in New Orleans re-
fused the citizenship applications of
several aliens because testimony devel-
oped that they wished to become citizens
in order that they might be available
for relief Similar instances have been
reported in many states.
The United States can we'll do with
out citizens who are citizens only be-
cause of what they get out of it. 1t is
as true as it is trite that citizenship car
ries with it many duties, as we'll as many
benefits. In the long run, the careless
ones, the thoughtless ones and the greedy
ones discover that the benefits far out
weigh the burden of duties.

CARE WILL OVERCOME
DANGER FROM HEAT

That it is hot in Imperial Valley cam
not be denied. Not the smothering, kill
ing heat of the middle west and some
other areas but still a heat dangerous
enough to those who are not careful of
their personal habits With sufficient
care, there is no need for any person to
feel fear of the weather. Heat prostra-
tion can be easily forestalled.
One of the first and most we'll known
rules is one which nature itself dictates:
Drink plenty of water Perspiration
and evaporation use up much body mOis-
ture. 1t is necessary to replenish it
often.
Another good rule to follow is this,
use a large quantity of salt A small
measure of salt in glass Of water each
day builds up resistance against the
heat as few things will.
More important than the things to do
are the things not to do, and chief among
these is: Do not drink heavily of intoX-
icating liquor. Alcohol heats the blood
and makes its victim especially vulner-
able to heat attacks. Most heat deaths
in Imperial Valley in years past have
been connected with liquor.
proper diet, proper exercise and
many other things go to make safety
against heat Any reliable doctor can give
a full program which, if followed out,
will make the danger of heat prostra-
tion negligible.
