The real, issue involved in the south- f ing denunciation of ail* tactics of the i Army and Navy by Colonel Mitchell i is whether the Colonel is right in • placing the blame for the disaster to the Shenandoah and the loss of the PN-0 No. 1. What is to be done to * 'Colonel Mitchell and whether a unified air service is needed are questions } that can wait, but the causes for the two disasters should be brought to 1 light without delay. Colonel Mitchell’s criticism of the ' air service of the Army and Navy was of public benefit inasmuch as it refitted to the two disasters, and it was unfortunate that in the same j criticism he linked up his desire for a i unified service. That question must : be studied fully yet there is no reason 1 why the Colonel’s charges as i<> the causes of the disasters cannot be in vestigated at once. What the people of the United States want to know is the exact rea sons why the Shenandoah crashed with a loss of fourteen lives, and the PN-0 No. 1 disappeared with five men. ‘‘Reports from Swampscott.” says the : New York World, “that President Coolidge will ignore the Mitchell Charges and ‘make no move, one way or the other’ can scarcely he credit ed/’ The World reached this con clusion because of the fact that Col onel Mitchell laid direct blame for the disasters to certain causes and for that reason his “charges simply cannot be ignored.” Continuing The World contends that “the first urgent task is an in quest into these two tragedies. Col onel Mitchell says that the PN-9 No. 1 had no test for such a flight as that to Hawaii: aviation officers in San Francisco say that it had already made a twenty-eight and one-lmlf hour flight. Col. Mitchell says that the pa trol vessels were too far apart: the San Francisco officers say they were close enough for radio work and for safety. Mitchell and Heiueken say that the reduction of the Shenandoah s safety valves from sixteen to eight was courting disaster; Lakehurst of ficers say that the reduction was made at the recommendation of the crew and the Hoard of Design, and in no wise affected ship-safety. Mrs. Lans downe says that her husband regard ed it us almost certain death to go in to a storm-area at this time: Secretary Wilbur says that Lansdowne chose the date for his trip. These are issues of fact. They and others like them will have to be settled to public sat isfaction. “When Congress meets we shall have ample time for discussing the air administration. The responsibil ity for the disasters is the subject now demanding attention. ’ r hkiTkt causing PJt X. MANY deaths.

The heart diseases are rapidly ou the increase, deaths from such diseases increasing by more than 60 per cent, from 1922 to 1924. And diseases of the heart cause more deaths in this State than any other disease,' pneu monia in all forms coming second. Figures compiled by the Bureau of Vital Statistics of the State Board of Health show the various causes of death in this state. The figures show a total of 33.234 deaths in the State during the year 1924. Os this num ber 3,667 deaths were the result of heart diseases. And deaths from heart diseases increased from 2.857 in 1922 to 3,361—0 r an increase of a little over 60 per cent. —in 1924. Pneumonia Is an easy second as a cause of death, with a total of 2,- 925 deaths charged to that disease in all its forms in 1924. This is an in crease of 187 over 1922.

Next comes 2.267 deaths resulting from cerebral hemorrhage or apo plexy, and that is followed, in the or der of numbers, by diseases of the kid neys which are charged with 1.874 deaths during the year.

Pictures, Inc. SYNOPSIS Little Bobby Fowler has fallen into a mountain stream. Bob Wilson sees him just as the Limited Mail approach es a landslide. It is a case of saving the boy or preventing the death of many by rushing forward and signal ing the train. He chooses the latter course and aboard the Limited finds Caroline, his sweetheart. The two hurry then to the stream and find that little Bob has been saved—by Spike, the convict. CHAPTER X—Continued When Spike was revived, he whis pered to Bob of what had happened —fugitive. ‘‘Seen dc kids blond the watching faces, measuring his chance to make away again at the first moment, for Spike did not forget even in this moment of re pentance and service that he was a —fugitive. “Seen de kid's blond noodle floating past the ledge where I bin hidin’ since de other wreck when I made me getaway. So I just hooked him in, and started to climb ttp. Dat's what tuckered me.

I jttst guessed dat because you torn it down it was Bob looked candidly at Vartdine and at Spike, and explained in the fullness of a sense of relief. “That was a police broadcast, for me because my father, ali other Bob did not know why she should ' be beside him. methods in his search for me having 1 failed, requested the countryside co- : operation of police departments to locate me. After he disowned me, he evidently regretted it, and insti tuted search. But my pride was 1 such that I'd sooner have died than gone back to a disgrace and con- 1 ditional foregiveness. The rest I'll : tell you some other time, Caroline!" “It won’t be necessary, Bob, for . I know—about Jane Gordon. And ' I know, further, something that ' made me wish so hard that you’d come back, or at least get in touch with me. Your father had your mar riage to Jane Gordon annulled—you have been free all these years—” 1 Bob was beginning to discredit ' the evidence of his cars and eyes— ' it all seemed such an incredible 1 turnover from the assailments of ' Fate he was so accustomed to. Yet —there was no gainsaying the evi dence of his lips, pressed close to Caroline’s. Preparations were underway now for the return of the Limited to Crater City until such ,fTnte as the Gorge could be made passable. Bobby, a little bewildered and a lit tle ill, was safe in the expert care of a doctor among the passengers. Bob had wondered what the at titude of the trainmen toward him would be: he was set at ease by their hearty expressions of grati tude and friendship. Evidently, in their minds, his former mistake had been overshadowed and expiated by the magnitude of his present achieve ment. He was at peace, then, with his comrades; with the world! —and, greatest matter of all—se cure in the love of Caroline. There fore, he determined to return to Crater City on the Limited and see everything through to the happy Opossum Sound (alls f or Police Squad. Allentown. Pa..

Spanking would be the only fitting punishment for such an affair—and I’m afraid you’re too big for me to spank!” Caroline spoke lightly, but deep in her heart she knew what the whole affair had cost this scion of the country’s oldest and proudest bluebloods; what trailing the lace and old lavender of aristocracy in the gutter of Philistine chiffon had : meant when realization came to the proud and sensitive soul of the ! young, man.

I’ll ever carry the thought, though, that I was responsible—for Jim’s death—” He explained to her the circum stances under which he had run past the light. “Then.” she whispered, stoutly sharing half and half with him. “It’s my fault, too, by the same token—• for it was my picture you were looking at!” Presently she continued, “We were just puppets in the hands of God, who wanted to take Jim on, for some reason. There’s no one to blame, but Him—and we can’t pre sume to do that!” Bob mused to himself—at least Jim had been saved a lot of pain by his death, the pain of unrequited love, for now Bob knew that Caro- * line could never have loved Jim.
