XJEW YORK.?People who send
^ ~ questions to radio quiz pro
grams have been missing a chance
to collect on "Who is the president
China'. Pre.ident
Revered a. Fount answer, as
Of Ancient WUdom q^ertfon!
is Chiang Kai-shek?the generalissi
mo and not the president.
Lin Sen, serene and venerated pa
triarch, has been president o 1 China
for 10 years. He could be called
doctor, and he has many honorary
titles, but he likes to be called Mr.
Lin Sen. Just now, he is casually
and obscurely in the news, with
? word of powerful generals making
pilgrimages to his peaceful retreat,
not to talk war, but to visit him as
they might a priest or physician.
He is a benign old gentleman,
bespectacled, with a snow-white
goatee, a scholar and an artist,
wise and humorous and, above
all, serene. He is one of the
most famous chirographers of
China and, so that he may quiet
ly practice his art, be made a
studio in a ruined garrison, with
walls 10 feet thick. There, on
bamboo paper, faced with silk,
he copies the classics in swift,
beautiful brush strokes, school
ing himself in their wisdom. Sun
Fo, president of the executive
yuan, takes care of the merely
temporal and practical details
of the presidency. Mr. Lin Sen
is free to practice wisdom and
virtue and impart it to his people
in beautiful characters.
Mr. Lin Sen was a missionary stu
dent in San Francisco's Chinatown,
studied western civilization diligent
ly and, returning to China, preached
a careful distinction between a civi
lization and a culture. He said Chi
na must be modernized, and joined
Dr. Sun Yat Sen, to that end, but
insisted that China would lose its
soul if it took only guns and ma
chines from the west?that force
alone always failed, even when it
seemed to be triumphant. He main
tained that true morality would in
the end prevail even over bombs
and bullets. But the latter, he be
lieved, were all right in their place
and in 1931 he became president, as
the advocate of vigorous'resistance
against the Japanese aggression.
His gods have generously answered
for him an ancient Chinese prayer^
"May your writing wrist be as lim
ber as a willow-wythe."

JOSEPH B. EASTMAN used to be
a social settlement worker in his
young days. It has been apparent
that in this he experienced a cer

'Natural' at New ,to the grand

years he has been a pragmatic lib
eral and it is as such that he tackles
one of the most important jobs of
the war, as chairman of the new
office of defense transportation. All
he will have to do will be to gear
all transport into a working unit,
to keep things moving on railroads,
air lines, truck lines, inland water
way*? coastwise and inter-coastwise
shipping lines and pipelines.
It was a much simpler job when
William G. McAdoo took it over in
the first World war, with plane and
motor transport negligible. Mr.
Eastman, through his long service
as chairman of the Interstate Com
merce commission and as former
co-ordinator of the railroads, has
grown into it.
Socially minded from his Am
herst and Phi Beta Kappa days,
he became a hard - working
"good neighbor" at the South
End house of Boston, then coun
sel fer the Boston Street Rail
way employees and later a
member of the Massachusetts
Public Service commission.
When Woodrow Wilson named
him to the ICC, he wrote a re
gretful letter saying be would
like to serve, but there was a
bar sinister in his career?he
was a Republican. Mr. Wilson
laughed that off and Mr. East
man has served under five Pres
idents. Supreme Court Justice
Brandeis had recommended his
original appointment. Railroad
moguls like him personally and
denounce his ideas.
He threw a switch on the first Van
Bweringen merger proposal in 1927,
later on on L. F. Loree's proposed
merger of the Katy and the Cotton
Belt with his own Kansas City
Southern, and in valuation, rate rise
cases, receiverships, recaptures,
mergers and the like he has been
sharply at odds with the rail barons
and definitely aligned with the drive
toward firmer governmental control.
Senate Progressives got themselves
into a great lather in 1929, prepar
ing to fight and die for their demand
that he be reappointed But Presi

Aviators Must
Train Muscles
Army Cadets Conditioned
Specifically to Meet
Strain of Flying.
MONTGOMERY. ALA. ? What
muscles does a pilot use in flying?
This question arose in the office
here of Ernest Smith, director of
athletics for the U. S. army air
corps in the southeast.
Smith was on the spot. Twenty
eight assistant physical directors,
charged with whipping aviation
cadets into shape, wanted an an
swer.
"I don't know," said Smith,
watching a formation of planes nose
up from a near-by flying fleld, "but
come on?we'll, find out."
And so 28 men, scheduled to go
out to as many airdromes as train
ers for aviation cadets, followed the
director. All, like Smith, were ex
perts in their line?many of them
college coaches?but conditioning a
man to handle a military airplane
was something else. .
And Maj. Gen. Walter R. Weaver
had ordered that all American and
British cadets in the Southeast be
conditioned specifically to meet the
strain of flying.
Make a Test.
Smith halted on the flying line
and said to a cadet:
"Mister, take off most of your
clothes and get in that airplane
there." When the cadet was in the
cockpit, he added: "Now, please go
through all the motions of flying."
The cadet "flew" as he had never
flown before?without leaving the
ground,, without flying tops?almost
without any togs at all. He went
through all the motions of banking,
looping, diving and spinning. And
more unspectacularly, he flew for
long stretches at a time on a steady
course.
This cadet had more eyes on him
than ever before. The gallery of
directors took notes, observing from
time to time that there was stress
on this or that leg muscle. They
saw, too, that the cadet continually
turned his head from side to side,
watching the imaginary terrain
"below" and the sky above as well
as the air on both sides.
They jotted down certain exer
cises to strengthen the neck in the
right places. They noted the rigid
position of the pilot in the cockpit,
the constant strain upon his abdom
inal muscles. They doped out ways
to build up the muscles imposed
upon.
Build Up Muscles.
The net result of this strange
interview is that today every part
of a gigantic physical training pro
gram now in swing in the Southeast
is devoted to the building up of the
muscles most used by fliers.
Aviation cadets bend, squat,
stoop, wave wands and go through
specialized calisthenics for one pur
pose and one alone?to become
stronger and better co-ordinated
combat airmen.
The new program ranges from
hard toe-to-toe boxing to the gentle
art ot swinging Indian clubs to music;,
from horseshoe pitching to the
grim business of disengaging one
self from a sinking parachute in the
swimming pool. It includes 35
sports, with as many different types
of athletic equipment.
Leading authorities are convinced
there is no better insurance against
accidents and loss of life than
physical fitness?clear minds and
steady hands in the cockpits of the
nation's combat ships.
Two groups left basic and entered
advanced school a short time ago.
One group has had the benefits
of the scientific athletic training, the
other had not. In a series of
three tests, it was found those men
with the training scored 29 per cent
higher than the others.
Director Smith believes it is a
fair indication that the athletic pro
gram is doing a lot of good for a
lot of cadets.
Even Queen Can Be Late,
British King Finds Out
LONDON.?When your wife keeps
you waiting you know how you feel.
When a queen makes a king wait
. . . well, even kings have their
human side.
King George VI and his queen
were due at 6:15 p. m. at an A.T.S.
center in Berkshire.
The king strode up and down,
glancing at his watch almost every
minute, and the words he muttered
to himself sounded very much like
the words an ordinary husband
might have muttered, and when the
queen arrived exactly 15 minutes
afterwards her greeting was exact
ly the one the ordinary everyday
wife would have come out with.
"Oh, dear," she remarked bright
ly, "am I late?"
The king shot back his cuff and
looked at his watch for the hun
dredth time. He spoka one word,
"Yes."

Use of Electricity
On Farms Increases
Report on Rural Systems
Praises Operation.
WASHINGTON.?An increase at
82 per cent over the previous year
in the amount of electricity deliv
ered to consumers is shown in a
United States department of agri
culture statistical report of REA
financed power systems for the fis
cal year ending June 30, 1941. Con
sumers of these systems used 568,
190,394 kilowatt-hours of electricity
during the fiscal year 1941, com
pared to only 311,479,005 kilowatt
hours during the previous fiscal
year.
Other figures similarly demon
strate substantial development dur
ing the past fiscal year, said Harry
Slattery, rural electrification admin
istrator, in the report, the most de
tailed yet prepared by REA for gen
eral distribution.
The report covers every phase of
operations, including allotments,
construction and financial statistics,
of each of the 823 systems with al
lotments as of June 30, 1941. On
that date, the report shows, REA
co-operative systems were serving
780,482 consumer members, com
pared to 549,604 on June 30, 1940,
?an increase of 42 per cent.
Gross revenues of the systems in
operation increased 68.8 per cent
during the fiscal year, from $17,376,
016 in 1940 to $29,356,462 in fiscal
1941.
The number of miles of line ac
tually in operation grew from 232,
978 on June 30, 1940, to 307,590 on
June 30, 1941, an increase of 32 p$r
cent.
REA systems are power distribu
tion companies, most of them owned
by the consumers who use the pow
er. Their construction is made pos
sible by loans from REA, but those
loans must be repaid with interest
over a period of 25 years.
Find* Sun la 93,005,000
Miles from the Earth
NEW YORK.?The sun's distance
from earth has been remeasured
and is found to be 93,005,000 miles.
This is between 100,000 and 200,
000 miles farther than previous
measurements, which were the re
sult of centuries of careful work.
The announcement is from Dr. H.
Spencer Jones, astronomer royal of
England, made in Monthly Science
News, a new British publication.
The added gap between sun and
earth is about as much as would
be caused by moving the moon three
to five times farther away. The
moon would look only about half as
bie as now.
The new distance to the sun is
the most accurate yet obtained. It
is considered uncertain by a margin
of not more than 10,000 miles. The
former estimate, 92,850,000 miles,
was uncertain by a 50,000-mile mar
gin.
Astronomers would like to get /id
of that last 10,000-mile error, forThe
sun's distance is the foot-rule of ce
lestial measurement. As long as it
continues uncertain, other measure
ments are affected.
Rock Collecting Fever
Coats Woman Fur Coat
SALT LAKE CITY.?Mrs. Grace
G. Dearborn of Boston, Mass., ad
mitted that her "collecting spirit"
had gotten the better of her.
Mrs. Dearborn, secretary of the
Boston Mineral club, visited Utah
recently to add a few crystal rocks,
found in abundance in Utah, to her
collection.
She had, at the same time, been
saving her money to buy a new win
ter coat.
But when she saw some of the
"rare and superb" specimens of
stone, she did a little re-allocating
and ended up using her "coat fund"
as collection expenses in gather
ing up se.ven suitcases full of the
formations to take home.

Pretty Girl Foreign Agent
Responsible for U. S.
Embassy Scandal.
WASHINGTON. ? G-men of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation are
working energetically to erase from
their shield the smear left by a mys
terious girl, known under several
different names in New York, Chi
cago, Detroit and Minneapolis, who
was sentenced recently to a year
and a day in federal prison.
She has called herself Lois Lock
ner, Paula Lockner, Carol Davis,
Paula von Luckner, and claimed
kinship with Count Felix von Luck
ner, the German sea raider of the
old World war.
With a number of other pretty
girls she was a frequent guest of
agents of the FBI at their suite in
the ultra-modern glass and brick
Beaux-Arts apartments in midtown
New York.
But Lois made the mistake of
posing as a G-woman herself and,
in the resultant scandal, a number
of agents were dismissed, while oth
ers were hastily transferred to
points far, far removed from the
6cene of their gay parties.
Perils of Beauty.
The revelations in this particular
case called attention to the fact that
G-men, and agents of the govern
ment generally?especially those in
the diplomatic and consular serv
ice?are daily subject to perils from
beauty as well as bullets.
Among several pretty Nazi agents
who pleaded guilty in recent espi
onage trials in Brooklyn federal
court, New York, was Lilly Barbara
Carola Stein, erstwhile Viennese
model.
Shortly after she was brought into
the investigation, Ogden H. Ham
mond Jr., socialite diplomatic ca
reer man, and a son of a former
United States ambassador to Spain,
appealed to the district court here
to enjoin the state department
against dismissing him from serv
ice.
Later, Hammond presented an af
fidavit from Miss Stein, declaring
their relations had been "purely Pla
tonic."
- But Lilly Stein pleaded guilty,
along with another pretty German
agent?Miss Else Wuestenfeld?to
indictments charging them with con
spiracy to transmit United States de
fense secrets to Germany. And the
district court decided it would let
Hammond's dismissal from the
state department stand.
Mysterious Kent Case.
Then there was the mysterious
case of Tyler G. Kent, former at
tache of the American embassy in
London, who is serving a seven-year
sentence in England as a German
spy. Bom in the United States, a
son of the late Consul General A. H.
P. Kent, he was convicted a year
ago with Anna Wolkoff, a Russian
bom Nazi spy, with whom he was
infatuated, with stealing Anglo
American messages.
Kent, in charge of cipher codes at
the embassy, was passing messages
along to the seductive Miss Wolkoff
who, in turn, was smuggling them
to "Lord Haw-Haw," renegade Brit
on who broadcasts in English over
the German radio. She also was
sentenced to prison, getting a term
of 10 years.
Forty-nine defendants were indict
ed in a sweeping prosecution of Nazi
activities. Most of them pleaded
guilty to minor offenses under the
espionage act and 16 went on trial
almost four months ago.

rancher.
"It makes no difference," he re

That answer set Haas to thinking.

spent a number of years in Mongo

That American 'Devil'
THE war now raging in the Far
East is not the first time that
American and 'Japanese armed
forces have been pitted against each
other. Seventy-odd years ago they
fought a fierce naval battle and
thereby hangs a tale of American
daring and American heroism
which compares favorably with the
stories that have recently been com
ing out of Hawaii, Wake and Mid
way islands and the Philippines.
This battle took place in the sum
mer of 1863 during the Civil war.
Among the United States naval of
ficers, who were detailed to patrol
the high seas in search of armed
Confederate vessels that were prey
ing upon Union commerce, was
David Stockton McDougal, com
mander of the steam frigate,
Wyoming.
Ordered to cruise in Asiatic wa
ters, McDougal arrived in the Orient
to find that danger from Southern
raiders was not the only threat to the
safety of American shipping. For
the mikado of Japan had issued an
edict expelling all foreigners from
the Flowery Kingdom, and fanat
ical Japanese clansmen already had
made several attacks upon Amer
ican and other foreign vessels in
the Straits of Shimonoseki.
McDougal proceeded immediately
to the scene of hostilities and on
July 16 steamed into the straits.
Ahead of him were bluffs from 50
to 150 feet high, on top of which
were fortifications whose guns could
sweep the waters of the straits.
Besides these land batteries, there
were three native vessels in readi
ness to repel any invader.
It was a situation which might
have daunted the bravest captain
that ever trod the deck of a man
of-war. "McDougal was the type
y
COMMANDER D. S. McDOCGAL
who didn't know what fear was,
which, combined with a clear in
sight into the motives for action,
made an ideal officer," says Maclay
in his "History of the Navy."
"Making directly for these ves
sels, he shook out his colors, but
reserved his fire, intending to at
tack the vessels first and give his
attention to the batteries after
wards. The sight of the American
flag seemed to act like oil on the
fire, for now the Japanese opened
from other batteries with savage
ferocity. McDougal's shift from the
main channel somewhat disconcert
ed their plans, as seen by the fact
that most of their shots took effect
in the Wyoming's rigging."
The American vessel was now
engaged with the three Japanese
ships. By a well-directed fire the
American gunners succeeded in
sinking two of them, despite the fact
that the Wyoming had run aground
and was in danger of being rammed
by the third. But the fire of the
frigate soon drove that enemy ship
off and silenced her guns.
Then McDougal concentrated on
the shore batteries and, while delib
erately retracing his course through
the straits, kept up a most effective
fire. The Japanese clansmen, fear
less as they were, were greatly im
pressed by McDougal's boldness.
They believed that he possessed
more than human nerve in thus run
ning the gantlet of fire which they
had prepared for him and long aft
erward they spoke respectfully of
the "American Devil" who had de
feated them in the Straits of Shi
monoseki.
An even higher tribute was paid
to him by a fellow-American. Theo
dore Roosevelt said "Had this ac
tion occurred at any other time
than during the Civil war, its fame
would have echoed all over the
world." But the memory of Gettys
burg and Vicksburg was fresh in
the minds of the people of the North.
So it was easy for them to overlook
the valor of an obscure sea captain
winning a minor battle on the other
side of the world, heroic though his
achievement had been.
Bom in Ohio in 1800, Stockton en
tered the navy at the age of id and
served as a midshipman on the
sloop, Natchez, in the West Indies
squadron from 1838 to 1831. After
several years' service in the Orient,
he was commissioned a captain in
1884 and placed in command of the
steam sloop, Powhatan. In 1870 be
became commander of the south
squadron of the Pacific fleet and in
1873 he was made a rear-admiral.
He was then placed on the retired
list after nearly half a century in
the service. He died in San Fran
cisco on August 7. 1881.

/'When I say 'I have, you have,

I want all of you to understand.
Do you?"
They did.
"Very good. Now listen careful
ly. 'I love, you love, he loves.'
What is that?"
There was a moment of silence,
and then up shot little Tommy's
hand.
"Please miss," he said, "it's
one of them triangles when some
one gets shot!"
