Anyway, the whole country Is awheel this very ■dnute, doln? just whst Doctor Nature laid them to do.

The Indictment eeatains special counts of murder, robbery and other crimes of violence. Those defending our people endeavor to throw the blame on lack of police prated lon, faulty legal procedure, sen sational newspapers snd so on. Bat the criminologists know better. They declare emphatically that the prevalence of crime Is a symptom of basic disturbance in our emotlonll stability.

They have seen many an object lesson of esrth in the making—naked granite peak, eroded valley, glacier, gorge and moraine. They have been In a vaat exhibit In the national parks of wild life —animal, bird and plant. Surely they should have gained edu cationally. They have driven and camped with people from every nook and corner of the United States—the fanner from Nebraska, the banker from Illinois, the merchant from Loui siana. the manufacturer from New York, all with their women folks. Has that not msde for democracy ? Doctor Nature is exceedingly busy In the national parks this summer. The nationnl park service reports, with the season yet several weeks from Its peak, thst all records for at tendance will be broken. And that Is a good thing for the nation. For out door recreation amid scenes of nat ural scenic beauty Is the best anti dote for the many Ills of our modern civilisation.

The rider to the District of Colum i bla appropriation bill which Wittner I seized upon to bring his action in the ] District o' Columbia sapreme court is certain to be reported In the new sup ply measure for ttfe Washington gov i ernment and eo will form the vehicle j for congressional debate. The view of some congressmen is that both the evolutionists and fun damentalists will marshal their forces for the congressional discussion and ! that each side will find able spokes j men among the membership. Should su .h be the case, the issue would be fairly Joined in Congress, which would ' be called - upon -to determine whether the teaching of the evolution theory is in fact in conflict with the teachings ot the Bible. While counsel for the government and District of Columbia went ahead ; with preparations to meet the Wittner suit for an injunction aimed to cut off the pay of Washington public school i teachers who teach biology, somewhat of a flurry was created at the treas ury by the disclosure that Wittner on three occasions has altefed the prescribed form of the oath he was re ; quired to take.

Honolulu. —Two aviators were kill ed and three Injured in triple sccl« 1 dents which occurred within less than three hours. The dead: First Lieutenant Charles L. Morse, Lancaster, N. H.; First Lieu tenant John A. Wyatt Hampton, Va. Injured: Staff Sergeant ' Prosper Ter Moulten; Second Lieutenant John F. Mcßlain, District of Columbia; Private Hanks, acting observer. Both of the officers leare families. Sergeant Ter Moulten is the most ser iously hurt of ,the Injured. Lieutenant Morse took off frofn Luke field, on the army end of Ford island, at almost the same time that a navy plane piloted by Chief Petty Officer Frosio arose at the other end of the island. The two pilots evidently did not see each other until thei* planes were near collision. 1 Eye witnesses said both were cir cling trying to obtain "ceiling" and that Morse apparently glimpsed the navy plane and tried to pull away. As he did so the tail surfaces and control wires of Morte's plane came in contact with the surface of the navy plane, throwing the army plane, which was heavily loaded, out of control. The army plane pulled away, then crashed to the earth, striking on the l«ft wing. Lieutenant Morse was dead when the ambulance arrived. Lieutenant Wyatt, accompanied by Sergeant Ter Moulten, was piloting a large de Haviland plane when his engine started to give trouble. Forced to land, he made for a small field on the Waipahu plantation 14 miles from here. He overlooked however a high ' tension electric wire ,which caught the plane, and sent it crashing 'to the ground. The pilot . was killed instantly. Seageant Ter Moulten was taken to Trlpler general hospital. ■ Both of these accidents happened within an hour. The third occurred with Lieutenant Mcßlain. with Pri l vate Hanks as observer, went up in another de Haviland to search for Wyatt's plane. They located the plane, but in land ing hit the same wire that caused the Wyatt accident. Mcßlain received a gash in his neck apd other external and possibly internal injuries. Pri vate Hanks was cut and bruised. ' Grain Export* Record Gains.
