Nozi Example Spurs Bockers
Of Glider Program for u. S.
Advocates Hope Senate Bill May Result
Ultimately in Development of Military Force

Spurred by German use of troop
carrying gliders, reaching a dramatic
climax in the conquest Of Crete, ad-
vocates of national glider program
for the United States now are rally
ing behind a bill by Senator Nc
Carran of Nevada to establish such
a program. This bill, intended to
bring to head a controversy which
has been in progress for more than
a decade in this country, would
provide only for the creation within
the Civil Aeronautics Authority of
a glider pilot training division to
sponsor the formation of glider
clubs in high schools, colleges and
universities.
Military Glider Force.
1t is the hope of the glider ad-
vocates, however, that enactment of
the bill may result In the develop
ment of a military glider force, per-
haps along lines of the German
force which captured the imagina-
ton of the world during the Cretan
campaign.
Behind the McCarran bill is a
long and colorful story. For many
years sponsors OF gliding and soar
ing have sought to interest the
Government in establishing it in
this country as it was developed
abroad. particularly in Germany
and Russia.
The story is as colorful as is
gliding itself. 1t also is highly con-
troversial.
Both the Navy and the Civil Aero
nautics Authority have undertaken
glider training programs and have
abandoned them. The Navy Bureau
Of Aeronautics, under the leadership
OF Comdr. Ralph S. Barnaby, the
first United States glider pilot to
win an international license, for
merly conducted glider training
school at its main pilot training CEN
ter, Pensacola, Fla.
Comparisons Made.
The school, regarded as chiefly
| experimental, was intended to de-
termine on scientific basis whether
glider training produced better air
plane pilots than training in pow
| cred aircraft alone. Over a period
of several years. naval aviation
trsinees were drawn from the ranks
OF run of the NINE applicants and
were put through preliminary glider
training before going into powered
| training planes. Careful records
were kept to check their progress
in comparison with the progress OF
men from the same group who had
received no glider training
After a careful study of the COM
psrative records, the Navy aban-

dnned the program. apparently con-
WINGED glider training did not add
sufficiently to the capabilities of the
average trainee to justify the time
and expense involved.
The Civil Aeronautics Authority,
In connection with its civil pilot
training program, also conducted
glider course during the summer of
1899 but after a single season it was
abandoned.
The Army Air Corps, after what
may be described as a merely per-
functory interest In glider training
for military pilots, is reported now
to be dickering with leaders of the
National Soaring Society for the
training Of a group Of Army pilots
in gliders and sailplanes, probably
at Elmira, N. Y, where the society
will hold its great annual national
soaring meet June 28-July 10.
L. S. Has 144 Licensed Glider Pilots.
In view of reports that Germany
trained some 100000 glider pilots in
the days before Munich and that
Russia has trained perhaps as many,
1t is somewhat astonishing to learn
that the United States on June l
had only IA licensed glider pilots.
There were at the beginning of this
month sos other known glider pilots
who had not qualified for Federal
licenses, or total of only TAG known
glider pilots in a Nation of more
than $4,000 people.
1t is more disquieting to learn that
there now are III the United States
no more than Al licensed elders
and "a others known to the Federal
Government which have not been
hcensed-most of them because they
could not qualify for certificates I'M
der existing Federal requirements.
The lack Of certificated pilots who
could serve as instructors and of
gliders have been the chief OBJ
StacleS in the way Of any large-scale
program. These are given by C. A.
A. officials as the reason for aban-
donment of their glider program.
They say gliding has not been given
a fair trial in connection with the
civil pilot training program and that
no conclusive results have been pos
sible.

problem facing the United States

Air Raids Aid Business
In London BEAUTY Shops

Women have always faced small
crises by "prettying" themselves
up. No woman with the price of
new hat in her purse or a charge
account that would stand the strain
would apply for a job in an even
slightly old one.
No broken-hearted wife would for
get to take last look in the mirror
before going to court for her divorce
hearing.
And no feminine patient would, if
she could help it, let herself be
wheeled into the operating room
minus her usual lipstick.
We know that women get courage
for the ordinary, run-of-the-mill
trials and tribulations Of life by
meeting them with fiattering hair
dos, new hats and famboyant lip
sticks. -
And now word comes from Eng
land that even when faced by great
danger, and the possibility Of death,
women turn to their beauty parlors
for strength.
During the night bombs dropped
on England. Next morning ESQ a
British correspondent says) the
women flocked in greater numbers
than usual to their favorite beauty
salons to get the works.
A man reading the story probably
would think, "How silly! Isn't it
just like bunch of women? Never
think about anything but their
looks"
A woman reading the story would
understand perfectly. No woman is
likely to be as frightened and ut
terly miserable while waiting for the
worst to happen if she is looking
her best as she would if she knew
she looked bedraggled and down at
the heel.
Besides, a girl never knows who
she'll run into-even in an afraid
shelter.

ABOLITION OF
DEATH SENTENCE
IS RECOMMENDED

In widely separated sections of the
United States the question of capital
punishment has been brought once
more under sharp discussion.
Gov. w. Lee O'Daniel of Texas has
recommended abolition of the death
penalty in his State, and a bill to this
end is pending before the Legislature.
In Massachusetts-one of five States
in which the death penalty for murder
is mandatory in first degree verdicts
"a legislative committee this week
will hear discussion of a bill to per-
NIT juries to recommend life impris-
onment in first degree cases.
From the standpoint of present-day
pathological practices the penalty for
crime should be justified by two
tests-does it insure absolute certain
ty of punishment when guilt is prov
en-, and does it provide opportunity
for reformation and regeneration of
the offender? Punishment for re-
venge is outmoded.
On the first point prominent peno-
logists have indicated that the death
penalty fails to meet the standard.
The severity Of the punishment, par
ticularly in those States where the
capital sentence is mandatory upon
conviction, results in noticeable reluc-
lance on the part of juries to bring
in a verdict of guilty. This seems in
Dictated by the Massachusetts record
from 1925 to 1910. During those
years there were 1877 murder indict-
ments and only 81 executions.
Proponents of capital punishment
hold that it is deterrent to the COM
mission of murder, yet some records
tend to show that this is not the case.
For example, there were $500 homi-
cides in Texas from 1888 to 1888 in
elusive, whereas in the six States
which have abolished the extreme
penalty-Maine, Michigan, Mime
sofa, North Dakota, Rhode Island,
and Wisconsin-there were but 2,075
homicides among twice as many peo-
pie.
1t is also argued that capital pun
ishment is necessary as a protection
to society against repetition of the
crime it is intended to punish. If
there is risk that political pardons
may turn loose confirmed gangsters,
that is a situation which society
should correct in other ways, rather
than by retaining a method which
runs the continual risk of executing
an innocent person.
The two bills before the people of
Massachusetts and Texas are of vital
Importance. 1t is to be hoped that
disposal of these bills will come only
after free and frank discussion and
that whatever action is taken will re-
fleet the opinion of an enlightened
public.

Glycerine Adds Luster
To Unfinished Furniture

A new and effective way to treat
unfinished wood furniture is to give
it special finish that brings out
all the natural beauty of the grain.
This is accomplished by dipping
clean cloth in glycerine and rubbing
the wood until as much is absorbed
as possible. Next, go over the sur
faces with linseed oil and remove
the excess with a clean cloth. The
result is soft, mellow finish, a.
rich warm glow that is the. distin-
gushing feature of old maple.
Glycerine is of value, too, in re-
finishing antique pieces. If you have
been fortunate enough to unearth an
antique chest or quaint old rocking
chair whose beauty has been
dimmed by several coats of paint,
try this method of restoring it to its
former charm.
Apply paint remover followed by
applications of vinegar and water
and rinse with clear water. Sand
paper until every vestige of paint
has disappeared and rub thoroughly
with steel wool. Next, 60 over the
surfaces with a glycerine dipped
cloth. The furniture is now ready
for coat of stain, lacquer or a
linseed oil finish. The use of glycer-
inc in this respect is valuable in pre-
venting drying, cracking and warp
ing and since it is widely used in
the manufacture of various furni-
ture polishes, it can be depended
upon to help keep the finished piece
at it's best.
