Valueless Comparisons

A COMPARISON may seem
I \ more creditable than it
really is. To say of a man
that his word is as good as his
bond may appear quite COM
plimentary; but when it is
known that his bond is worth
less, the comparison loses it's
value.
To say that a man is as
godly every day of the week as
he is on Sunday is little to his
credit when he is known to
spend his Sundays drinking and
gambling. Only when tn e
standard has real value are
comparisons with the standard
of substantial credit.

The Commissioners, in keeping

Col. Charles A. Lindbergh took to the
air Is pilot Of his own machine yes
terday for the first time since he came
to Europe.
He made . test flight from Reading
Airdrome in q plane which its makers
assert Is the fastest light touring
monoplane ever built in this country.
The Flying Colonel" himself helped
design it.
Minor changes which Lindbergh
found desirable on the flight will be
made before the plane is finally
delivered to him next week.
Construction Secret.
During the weeks in which me-
chanics secretely built the plane in
q shuttered hangar here, Lindbergh
paid them several visits. The ship
was built largely according to his
specifications in his conferences with
Frederick George Miles, noted British
airplane designer.
Already dubbed flying caravan"
by the British press, the new plane is
fitted with tandem seats which are
easily convertible into hunks.
Large gasoline tanks give it un-
usually long range and. with its 200
horsepower Menasco engine, it is said
to be capable Of flying nonstop for
1000 miles at approximately 200
miles per hour.
Sliding Roof.
The narrow cabin has a transparent
sliding roof which opens like q roll
top desk. There is space for baggage
in the tail.
The fuselage is painted black, with
the low wings finished in orange. The
plane carries equipment for blind n.y.
ing, radio and landing flares.

job We have ever put out" said T. H.

to split the army into two rival
camps"
The Fascists were spreading in
huence through the army. the news
paper asserted, through a handful of
subversive officers who dream of imi-
tating Franco and serving Hitler"
The charge apparently referred to
Gen. Francisco Franco, leader of the
Spanish Fascist revolution, who has
been accused Of having secret agree
ments with Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler.
The proposal demanded that the
moderate elements in the Socialist
premier's cabinet desert the Popular
Front Of Communists, Socialists and
Radical Socialists and repudiate the
coalitions program.
1t came as the cabinet faced the
gravest threat to its existence since 1t
acquired control last May, beset by a
new wave Of strikes and dissension
within its own ranks.

Strike Resistance.
Although the Radical Socialist party
recently voted unanimously to con-
tinue its afiiliation with the French
Popular Front, it resolved also to resist
occupation strikes.
It warned the cabinets Communist

A happy Washington, joyously wav-
Ing flags, with light heart, tossed
away . couple Of years of annual
leave this frosty November morning
to welcome home its frst citizen
back after the most Sensational
triumph in American political history.
President Franklin d. Roosevelt
rode in an open car from Union Sta

cheering lane of Government work.
ers, school children and housewives,
who lined both sides of the street
every step Of the way, brief cases and
school books under their arms.
This almost impromptu reception,
arranged overnight, was something
new in the history Of the Capital. It
was not a political demonstration. It
was utterly without ceremony. It was
not greeting for national hero. It
was touchingly heartfelt welcome for
q neighbor who has been out Of town
for few days and gotten his name in
the papers. It was q welcome from
adorers. friends, acquaintances and
from many who few days ago were
not SO friendly to the smiling, gray
haired man who rode up the Avenue
tipping his hat to everybody and oc-
casionally recognizing somebody in the
crowd.
Neighborliness and joyousness were
the outstanding characteristics Of
Washington's greeting. For some
weeks past the citizens of the Ma
tional Capital had been under q great
nerve tension. Political feelings ran
high. Friend and foe of the admin
istration were more bitter than their
actual expressions indicated. There
was q widespread fear and uncertainty
Of the future. Always, for good or bad,
a political turnover involves q greater
amount Of readjustment for this city
than for any other part Of the United
States.
This morning it was all over. The
city had taken account of itself. It
was rested from the turmoil Of the
election. 1t was in the hand-shakins.

more agreeable crowd to handle, and
the police and National Guardsmen
who were lining the streets to keep
it in order were themselves parts Of
the welcoming groups.
Perhaps Washington was identifying
itself with the man 1t was welcoming
home and with his unprecedented tri-
umph. Franklin D. Roosevelt came
home as "the local boy who made
good" All his old neighbors wanted
a bit of the glory Of 1t. Moreover. 1t
realized that the ways of life into
which it has fallen for the past four
years were not going to be changed;
that old friends were not going TO
depart; that everything would be to-
morrow as it was yesterday. And few
ever are very happy over the neces-
sity of readjustment when actually
faced with it.
So Washingtoh-friend and critic
alike of Franklin D. Roosevelt-was
happy.
So much was this the case that 1t
aroused some comment, after the
strenuous political arguments OF .

throng.
The station was festooned with
American colors and the thousands Of
citizens banked along Pennsylvania

small flags that had been distributed
by trucks.
AS the Presidents car reached FIJI

Traffic Immediately south Of the
Executive Mansion was tied up for a
time, as cars halted so that their oc-

The White House rails were lined
thick with people, and some held their
children aloft, so that they might see
better. Many people carried Ameri-
can flags and some men had large
ones stuck in the lapels of their coats
A number Of persons climbed over
the White House fence, and had to be
driven back by polite but firm guards.
The President, after being met by
Mrs. Roosevelt at the south entrance,
passed through the Executive Man
sion and out upon the north portico
to greet large crowd Of enthusiastic,
but previously disappointed people,
who had missed him as he came In
the other way.
The Presidents appearance on the
portico was greeted with an outburst
Of cheering and drew people from all
directions to get glimpse Of their
victorious Chief.
Escorted by Son, James.
The President appeared, escorted by
his son. James, and raising his right
hand high in the air, waved for q
long time at the cheering crowd.
Men, women and children crowded
for advantageous positions. keeping
an almost continuous cheering, scat
tered with applause.
A large banner unfolded high in
the air between two of the white
columns Of the portico read: Catholic
U. Welcomes Roosevelt" The Presi-
dent and Mrs. Roosevelt remained on
the portico for about minutes and
then retired to the interior.

photographers crowded for vantage
