the neglect of the inward human
qualities, that the very products
we have created threaten to de-
stroy us. This, to his mind, is the
overriding problem Of our age.
What is the solution? General
Lindbergh offered one-and. inevi-
tably, it had to be phrased in very
general terms. He said: Il believe
the solution lies in each individual,
through the standards he holds;
that it lies not in political parties
OF radical movements, but in human
values and gradual trends; not a
greater complication, but in
greater simplicity Of life In other
words, | believe that the solution
lies within ourselves, and that we
can find it nowhere else. We de-
sired a mechanistic civilization;
that set the trend, and we achieved
one. To achieve civilization based
on human values requires the de-
sire within ourselves. Industrial

The Essential Core

"The character OF man still forms
the essential core of a lasting civil
lization." With that phrase Charles
A. Lindbergh closed a striking adj
dress, delivered at The institute Of
the Aeronautical Sciences Honors
Night Dinner, after he had been
given Daniel Guggenheim medal
for his achievements IN aviation.
The theme OF his talk i found
in another phrase we have
measured success by our products
rather than BY ourselves" IN other
words, he dealt with the material
ism of the times. and tn unprece-
dented tensions. conflicts, woll;,s
and uncertainties that have become
a worldwide plague.
Near the beginning General
Lindbergh described the hopes that
we've held when flying was young.
1t was believed that the airplane
would be major instrument in
bringing the peoples of the world
closer together-closer not only in
terms Of time and space but in
terms of understanding. Nothing
could have been more tragically
wrong. As he said, I'VE are con-
fronted with the stark fact that
the historical significance of air
craft has been primarily military
and destructive. With hindsight, we
see that our early enthusiasm over
the discoveries of science and the
conquest Of the air blinded us to

Neuberger Arrives;
70 Join in Power and
Conservation Bills

~
Senator -elects Richard L. Neu-
berger, first Democrat elected
to the Senate from Oregon in
40 years, arrived in Washington
today prepared to take an active
part in legislation affecting
public and conservation.
He was accompanied by Mrs.
Neuberger, who also is in
politics as a member of the
State Legislature.
On his way East the Senator
elect stopped in Chicago yester-
day to see Adlai Stevenson and
was quoted by the Associated
Press as saying Mr.. Stevenson's
chances for the Democratic
presidential nomination in 1855
look very good" out on the
West Coast.
Mr.. Neuberger went on record
for some reduction in tariffs to
encourage trade with friendly
nations. He pointed out that
Japan, for example, must have
commerce and il not permitted
to, trade with the United States,
will be driven to do business with
the Soviet world
The new Oregon Senator said
one of his first plans is to join
with other Western Senators in
advocating the Hell's Canyon
project as a high Federal dam.
He criticized smaller privately
owned dams proposed for the
Snake River as "dog-in-the-
manger DAMS"
Commenting on the Dixon
Yates power contract In the
Tennessee Valley area, he said
"it was not a particularly good
deal for the public"
