A FRIEND of mine once had a jolly exciting experience and I think you might be interested in hearing about it. He was flight-testing a new' and untried airplane and w'hen he took off the controls w'ent haywire and the landing gear crumpled. He fluttered around the airport for a w'hile until the emergency crew and the ambulance were all set for a crackup. But by a beautiful bit of flying and an exhibition of cold, grim nerve he nursed his crippled craft back to the ground w'here it tipped over gently and came to rest with its nose touching the earth.

NEW DEAL SPENDING TARGET OF DOUGLAS Former Budget Director Bitterly Attacks Policy. By United Press PHILADELPHIA, March 15. Lewis W.

This always has and always will destroy the medium of exchange. “This, it seems to me, is the most brutal and cruel thing any government can do to its people, for it destroys the middle class.”

Then here’s a sample of the sense of humor of my good friend, Jimmy Doolittle. He was taking off from New' York not long ago and he turned to me: “What time do you go on the air tonight. Al?” “Six forty-five to seven,” I answered. “Well,” he said as he swung into his ship, “I’ll be out West some place, and i-f you hear a lot of applause, that’ll be Doolittle.” And then he added, just before yelling “Contact.” . . .
