crashed against mountain side. Experts warn that too much significance should not be read into the incident. The plane did change its course, which would not be permissible in the fool-proof automatic machine of the future. It did crash into a mountain side instead of making per- feet landing on a pre-selected airfield and then taxiing up to the administra- tion building or freight shed.
 The present-day airplane still lacks something of what MT. Breech had in mind when he told his stockholders about the company's progress in developing aviation instruments, and then added: Developments to date make it possible for me safely to say that we can see the time of automatic flying coming within the next few years" But by some quirk of fate, the currently standard automatic controls chose to emphasize MT. Breech'S prediction by showing how close we already have come to tomorroW's miracles.
 It is easier now, because of the flying Dutchman's" accidental feat, to believe that within few years the elements of human error may be no more important in the air than on the ground. Everybody, almost, wants to fly. We are looking forward to the day when planes - per- hapS automobile bodied helicopters - will be as simple, as safe, as convenient as motor cars are now. The engineers say we won't have long to wait. The flying Dutchman" makes the engineers look like good prophets

Prussian General

Herr Goebbles now has something about which to talk. One of the two Amer ican field armies is commanded by Prussian-born general, Walter Kreuger, whereas the commander of the other, General Eisenhower, is far removed from his ancestors Germanic origin.
 That is quite all right with us. Not only is General Krueger'S Americanism be- yond suspicion, but he has proven him. self to be a soldiers soldier, a prime student of military history and strategy, a tactician of the first rank. He is one of those generals who knows how to be hard-boiled SO that his men love him.
 If there are any other German-born officers of Krueger's caliber, by all means let's send them to the fighting zones as fast as we know how.

"A Chinese Lady Breaches Lesson

Madame Chiang Kai-shek could easily feel an intense bitterness toward the common enemies at this time. Yet she asked her listeners the other night at Madison Square Garden in New York to forget bitterness and hate when ulti- mate victory comes, as we hope 1t will. She also said, i've must try to forgive" Rancor in the hearts of many for personal losses, fine hatred of the enemy, are difficult to overcome, because you can say - do not hate my enemy, but you do feel hatred as you Nare saying the words.
 The greatest of admiration is felt by all for the wife of Chinas generalissimo. She is simple and unassuming, and speaks simple unassuming and under standable words. She has reason to feel with her countrymen bitterness. China has taken 1t during the last few years; taken it harder than most of us realize. Tn behalf of her country Madame Chiang aGks an understanding cooperation. Briefly, and at length she has spoken many words since she addressed the Sen ate and the House at Washington last week. A small, frail person she is pos sessed of great courage and has spoken in the midst of the customary American big rush a la New York style. Facing the multitudes is considerable task and physically she hardly seemed able to cope with the masses
 What was most impressive in her New York address at the Garden was what we mentioned above and these words of hers were particularly impressive: "All nations, great and small, must have equal opportunity of development. Then, too, there must be no bitterness in the reconstructed world. No matter what we have undergone and suffered, we must try to forgive those who injured us and remember only the lesson gained thereby"

The Freedoms

After reading Governor Charles Edi- sons recapitulation of what is happen ing in Hudson County, N. J., under Chair man Frank q am the law) Hague, one IS tempted to wonder why the United Ma tions do not use that area as laboratory to work out methods of replacing dicta- torship with Four Freedoms.
 The charges made by Governor Edison are not new. Nor were they partisan, since the governor is distinguished Democrat who for long time has been close to the President. He cited few up-to-the-minute illustrations of the way in which Boss Hague has suppressed freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion, freedom of the press.
 Surely the people of Hudson county would welcome those freedoms which for so long have been mere scraps of paper to them.

No Sooner Said Than Done

While Ernest E. Breech was telling Bendix Aviation Corporation stock holders that the day of automatic fly- ing" is just around the corner, Army publicity officers were releasing the strange tale of four-motored transport that flew 1000 miles after it's crew had bailed out. The Consolidated Liberator- type plane, you will remember, had started for South America when, 80 miles bers and two passengers to bail out. When they had cleared he headed the planes out to sea, set the automatic pilot for level flight, and took to his own parachute. Reversing its course, the abandoned plane flew to Mexico and

Agreeable are the words that the ban on pleasure driving will be lifted in the Eastern states March 9. This does not mean it will be possible to get the car out and go places to any great extent. However, 1t is something. On that date the three-gallon A coupon expires. What is gained in one way is likewise lost be- cause there will be further cut in the value of the unit of the A ration of two gallons. If you figure this out in the amount of gas allotted to A card holders it will be plain that you can manage short rides and maybe trips to market or some similar purpose. The one advantage In the lift of the ban so designated is the fact that you are not likely to be stopped and given stiff interrogation as to your comings and goings. That is something at any rate.

A Thought for Today
The War Strikes Home

If Connecticut's new toll bridge across the Thames River between New London and Groton doesn't live up to all expec- tations, we'll have to blame it on the war, Although no one had any definite Knowledge of what tolls would be charged on this structure, still most of us felt that they would conform to the tolls now in existence on other spans and along the Merritt Parkway. But the tariff has been upped to fifteen cents for normal trip over the bridge, although the war workers in this critical area will be given all sorts of opportunities to cut the price of their daily crossings considerably by seasonal books and tickets.
 That evidently isn't the buring ques- tion in New London and Hartford though. The fact remains that the old highway bridge is still in existence and use. Or at least 1t was last week. Under the con- ditions attendant on construction of the toll span the old bridge was to have been torn down as soon as the new one was put into use. But sentiment and argu- rnents in New London are for retention of the two structures with, naturally, consequent loss of revenue on the toll bridge. Hartford, however, is getting along with two Connecticut River bridges, one free, one toll
 A long time ago The Democrat con- tended that destruction of one of the New London bridges during wartime was too much of a risk to take. If Atlantic coastal cities are always in danger of Nazi air raids, then New London is a target area and as such its various facil- itiss, among them highway bridges, are obiectives. It would seem the wiser course of action to retain the two struc- lures for the duration, even though the state may suffer heavy loss of revenue in tolls and have to find other ways and means of financing the construction costs.

 FINLAND'S DEFEAT
 After some two years of dreary fighting against the Russians and British, the Films are right back where they started.
 Diplomatic dispatches reveal that Russia has now offered Fin- land the following peace terms:
 ]. A border between the two countries similar to that estab- lished by the treaty of l940. This was after the Russo-Finnish war, from Russia emerged victorious.
 3. The Russians also demand certain political changes in Fin land, particularly the establish ment of Q government friendly to Russia. This would definitely exclude both Mannerheim and Tanner.
 American observers may make a counter suggestion, modefy Oag these terms somewhat, to make them more palatable to Finland.
 The suggestion is that two points of vital importance to the Films, whcih have been held by Russia since the 1940 settlement, to Finland.
 These are: CD Viborg, Q city northwest of Leningrad, now shot to. pieces, of no eartly use to the Russians, but with strong sem timental attachments to the Films. (2) Hango, an island in the entrance to the Gulf of Fin land, described as "the cork to Helsinki" and which, if held by any foreign power, would bottle up the Capital of Finland.
 U. s. officials believe the Films will have to retreat from their almost fantastic belief that they are emerging victorious from this war. If much more time passes without settlement, the Russians will be free to resume the war with Finland, and to take what they want. So a settlement Is bet ter now.
 This Is the theory being pressed upon the Films by the U. s. Gov ernment, which has offered its good offices" for peace.

Pasadena, Gal. (UP)--After six persons had testified to seeing a man shot down on the street and his body carried away in an auto mobile that dashed up alongside. police succeeded in tracing six youths who had perpetrated the apparent crime. This, among other things, neccessitated the checking of 1000 automobile license numbers. The police characterized the affair as "the most vicious and gravest hoax ever perpetrated on the po- lice" The youths replied that the town was dead and they were ob- liged to have some excitement.
