Aviation STATE MAKES RAPID PROGRESS IN AIRFIELDS All Larger Cities in Indiana Either Have or Are Planning Ports. Indiana cities and towns are making rapid progress in airport construction and improvement, which, within the next year, should put the state in an enviable position. With its level country, the state is well adapted to flying, aviators being able to make a fairly safe landing almost anywhere in the state. All the larger cities of the state either have or are contemplating airports, and most of the smaller towns at least have a field suitable for emergency landing. The first Indiana good-will air tour, set for Sept. If to 23 by the Indiana Aircraft Trade Association, is expected to stimulate added interest in establishing municipal airports in the smaller towns. Indianapolis, with the municipal airport being prepared, two commercial fields. Hoosier and Capitol; the national guard airport at Mars Hill. Schoen field at Ft. Beniamin Harrison and a sixth private field being established near the northeast city limits. is espeeiallly wellequipped for aviation. City officials are working out plans for a *IOO.OOO administration building at the 560-acre Indianapolis municipal airport. Hoosier and Capitol airports each have added new hangars and Curtis Flying Service of Indians is completing a 175,000 hangar at the Mars Hill airport. The latter port has been adequately lighted for safe night flying. The Anderson board of works has

signed an option to buy the 115-acre Welch field fer a municipal airport, Muncie has employed a Chicago firm of aviation engineers to make a survey of available airport sites, as well as of the city’s aviation possibilities. Work of grading, leveling, ditching and seeding the Princeton airport has been started. Flood lights have been installed at the Marion, municipal field. Kokomo war veterans are urging city council to install lights and make other improvements at. the privately-owned Shockley field. Terre Haute is rushing plans for completing Dresser fie'd as a municipal port. Unless the field is ready for night flying by Aug. 15, the night air mail stop on the Chi-cago-At.lanta air mail route will go to Lafayette. The city council of

Terre Haute will conduct public hearing July 26 on a $125,000 bond issue for the improvements. The Ft. Wayne city council has adopted an ordinance authorizing a 3200.000 bond issue for improvement at the Paul Baer municipal airport to obtain the A-11-A rating. Work is being started at Goshen on erection of a beacon and boundary lights. Richmond and Rushville both are working out preliminary plans for municipal airports. Waynetown recently dedicated its port on the occasion of turning on of anew beacon light. Evansville has started grading of 200-foot runways. Dedication of the Evansville field, planned for Aug. 14. probably will be delayed two months because of delay in completing improvements.
PROBATION IS EXTOLLED AS CRIME ‘CURE 1 Advocate Declares Baumes Laws and Similar Acts •Antiquated,’ Bv ScriDPS-Hoirird XncsvnPFr Alliance SAN FRANCISCO, July 13.—The probation idea is winning in America In spite of the drives being made on It by advocates of Baumes laws, habitual criminal acts and other “antiquated punitive measures,” says Charles L. Chute, secretary of the National Prohibition Association and executive for 9.000 American probation officers. “About 200.000 children go through United States courts a year,” he says. “If it were not for the probation idea there would be many more, for one of the potent causes of habitual crime is the herding of criminals with young delmquents in county jails and penitentiaries. “In the past decade juvenile delinquency has decreased. The reasons are many—better economic conditions, prohibition that does to a considerable degree prohibit and better probation systems. “Your picture of a jazz-mad,

Roger Rabson “Charles P. Steinmetz, who was unanimously recognized by the General Electric Company, and other great similar organizations as the world’s foremost electrical engineer, was once visiting my home,” says Mr. Babson. “While talking over with him prospective future inventions in connection with radio, aeronautics, power transmission, etc., I asked him: ‘What line of research will see the greatest development during the next fifty years?’ After careful thought he replied: “ ‘Mr. Babson, I think the greatest discovery will be made along spiritual lines. Here is a force which history clearly teaches has been the greatest power in the development of men and history. “ ‘Some day people will learn that material things do not bring happiness and are of little use in making men and women creative syid powerful. Then the scientists of the world will turn their laboratories over to the study of God and prayer and the spiritual forces which as yet have hardly been guessed at. When that day comes the world will see more advancement in one generation than it has seen in the past four.’ ” Go To ChurchTOMORROW
I flask-toting, sex-loose generation of ! young folks is a lurid but untrue one. These are the exceptions. “Although there is serious break- ' up of home life, the court records do i not show a breaking down of sex | morality. Young people are getting j better, not worse.” Chute says that the probation idea j has been written into law in every | state in the Union but Wyoming. Only fifteen states do not have adult ; probation. New York records indicate that 80 I per cent of all young and old who are given a chance on probation succeed. “Probation is saving millions tor those states that use it." he says. “It. costs S3O a year to keep a person on probation, but SSOO a year to keep him in a penal institution. “The so-called Baume's laws, attacking probation by limiting its use in the case of ‘habitual offenders', are antiquated ana futile. They have been adopted in only three states. New York. Michigan and California, and are made permissive in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. “They are bad because they do not discriminate between types of offenders.
