FLYING infancy
While Americans are establishing
comnMTcial air transportation across
the Pacific, and the (iermans are
running their big dirigibles across
the .Atlantic, word comes that Eng
land is building huge ai»(>lanes for
trans-Atlantic flights. 'J'hese new
“ICmpire type” planes of Imperial
Airways will be bigger and faster
than the “China CHi'p';'''’ of
1’an-American Airways.
Already Ivngland is ojieraling in
ternational airi)lane routes over a
large part of the Eastern J Icmi-
sphere. 'I'he 1 )utch are a pretty
close second, however. 1 had oc
casion not long ago to send a letter
to a friend in Singaiiore, and learn
ed from the Xew York I’ost Ollice
that the quickest route was to,send
it 'by steamship to .Amsterdam,
whence one of the Dutch .planer
flying to Java wotdd take it quick
er than if 1 sent it by way of
J.(jndon and the English airmail
routes,
l-'lying is still in its very 'Carly
infancy. It is getting safer and
easier all the time,
WINDMILL slow
The safest flying machinc so f;u'
de\eloped is the aufogiro, vvhicli
looks like a horizontal windmill. It
can rise but of an ordinary back-
yanl and needs no inorov space
than a baseball diamond to land in.
It can only fly abou 60 miles an
hour, however, whicti is pretty slow
for air travel these days.
'I'lie newest improvement, now
being tried out, in aircraft, is a
combination of biplane and auto
giro. The upper plane can be shift
ed from its flying position into a
“windmill” of the autogiro type, for
rising and landing or in case of
emergency, while as a biplane a
speed of upwards of 125 miles an
hour is expected.
SAFETY ...... prizes
The latest organi>:ed. effort to
make motoring safer is, the estab
lishment by the Conmiercial Invest
ment Trust of a fiuid of $250,(KX)
to 'be used for educational efforts
for better driving and safer roads.
The C. L 'P. is interested bec^uise
it is the largest institution -engaged
in financing time payments on auto
mobiles.
.'\ 16ng list of annual prizes and
awards is announced ■ for individuals
and organizations doing the best
work for the promotion of highway
safety. Some brilliant and lucky in-,
j dividual is going to get $,S,(XX) for
I making the most useful contribn-
! tion during the year to arouse the
j j)ublic to aid in cutting down traf
fic accidents.
I hope that the committee in
charge of this e.xtremely useful
and humanitarian campaign directs
some of its attention toward uni
form license laws for cars and driv
ers, uniform traffic signals and
rules, and the penalizing of every
driver who takes to the road with
defective brakes or steering gear.
Giving a few thousand drunken
drivers long jail terms might help,
too.
[t’s an old saying that no law is
any good without a sheriff. We
will never have r?al highway safety
until we have more policemen pa
trolling the highways.
RELIEF . . _ . . . church plan
The Mormon Church, which is
one of the best organizetl religious
bodies in the world, has set an ex
ample which it. seems to me that
other churclves might do well to
follow, it has adopted a plan by
which every meinber of the church
will contribute one-tenth of liis in
come and, in addition, the cost of
two of the meals that he does not
eat on the monthly fast day, to a
fund to provide for every member
of the sect wlio is in need.
That is getting right back to
what seem to me the fundamental
I'rinciples of Christianity. The early
church was an actual brotherhood,
in which all ttie members felt it
their duty to see th^ none of the
members suffered want or privation.
The churches of .America could
solve the relief i«oblem by them
selves- if they were willing to put
fhose principles of Christian broth-
cfiiood into practical application.
RESPONSIBILITY • >“ *
'Dr. Arthur H. Comi)ton ^vorl 1
famous physicist, declared l othc
da^ his belief in a universal Ood d
the original Creator, but added that
God, in his l>elief, passed the re
sponsibility for social evolution on
to man with the dawn of social
consciousness, some 4,000 years ago.
It seems to me that Dr. Comp
ton's idea is about the best recon
ciliation of science with religion ye
ad\anced. It implies that all human
jirogress is a part of the Divine
plan, which each generation must
carry on, to the end of making hu
man life easier and human labor
lighter for everyboly.
To me the most heartening prom
ise in the Bible lias long been that
of the earthly millennium. Every
new disco\ery of science, every new
machine to lighten human toil and
multi|)ly the things that make for
human satisfactions, is a step to
ward the realization of that promise.
