Frank Lock hart, whom Barney
Oldfield rails "the greatest automo
bile drivei in history/' drove his caj
225 miles -in hour or. a Florid;
beach. lost control and shot out ir.tr
the ocean.
Such speed in automobiles is vat
. ueless, because it cannot be used
Trying for it is as unwise as soim
"stunts'' that fliers do, emphasizing
the danger oC flying, instead of emphasizing
its safety, as they should
It is to be hoped that Oolone
Lindbergh, the most important
young; man in his country, will realize
the danger and folly ;>f unnecessary
A Scr'ous accident to Lindbergh
would .-?-t flying back ten years ir

wants.
Grc 1 Britain suppresses a moving
picture showing how Ni-v." Edith
Cav> Si vas shot as a spy ' y the Germans.
Britain wisely dicuU;- such
a picture would only revive and intensify
international bitterness.
Edith Cavell was guilty under military
law. Allied nations executed
women for crimes no more serious.
But the "moral" circumstances were
different. Military stupidity, that
governed Germany and killed Edith
^Gavell, governs Germany no longer.
The Argentine Republic wanted
to rewrite the United States tariff
to compete with American, farmers.
But the Argentine didn't have Balfour
as representative, so this country
said no. We can handle little
republics. Britain is too much foi
us.
Last yeai this. country spent
$600,000,000 for radio products,
machines and parts. Nineteen
twenty eight will see the first radio
presidential campaign. The world
changes swiftly, adapting itself
readily to new methods.
Radio employs 000,000 people and

An athlete, breaker <>t" records,
with big lungs and chest expansion,
was amazed when the life insurance
doctor i<? ;j him "you are a bad risk.
We can't take you/'
Next to no excuse, the dangerous
thing i.-; over-exeiCise. You can develop
muscles almost without limit.
But you have only one heart, and it
will .stand only so much.
Pro hid tors of South American investments
inform you that the population
of Rio tie Janicro has increased
nearly a million in eight years.
Buenos Aires more than a million in
fourteen years- Agricultural popu
lation has increased enormously it
South America.
All that is due to our immigration
laws which keep out of the Uiiiteci
State- the white European popula
tions that we nerd, the inert an<
women that made this country what
it is.
Shutting out. such immigration, \vt
build up other nations.
