Things to Come By Raymond: Clapper
WASHINGTON, Sept. 16—I come back from Europe more impressed than-ever with the, strength
of the United States, and with a feeling that we do
not realize how great our nation is. If for mo other reason, it is worth a ‘10 see more clearly the size of the | United States, to see how its power is respected abroad, to sense the -truly historic opportunity which | has been-offered fo us by events. The massive New York-skyline | appears through the windows of | the incoming Clipper. From the huge cube of Rockefeller Center down to the Battery, the line seems | like a great stone dam, holding a J reservoir of giant power backed j up in the continent beyond. ki - It makes everything in Europe seem .small, and heavily handiis a littlé country, with only 40,000,We | produce five times as much steel. rs on the railroads are small, of 10 to 20 tons, carrying hardly more than a. good-size American truck. Our United States Steel Corp. produces more steel than Germany proper. Russia 1s ‘struggling as she has through the centuries for one good all-year round port. We have the combination of resources, and in quantity that no other nation has. "Slowly we are converting this into armed strength that will make us the mightiest military power, -
Let's Face the Facts
BUT WE DON'T believe any of this. We talk about it, we mumble the words, but it is only ritual. We worry about whether the British will get the _ better of us. We think Hitler is invincible. We think “this is too dangerous a world for us and we want to crawl into a shell in a pitiful search for safety. We refuse to believe that Hitler dreads bringing us into the war and we leave him to take advantage of our own greater fears. We have Great Britain, Russia

everything infinitely betfer for us and yet we are nervous about helping them along with their fight, The issué at the moment is’ whether Hitler is to be permitted to get: away with his threat to break up the Noja Atlantic and the Middle East supply lines. Bo
far he can go. President Roosevelt gives notice that
we will not tolerate attacks on our ships: ‘And Lind=| =
bergh undertakes to beat him down with ery that Roosevelt, the British and the Jews are trying to get us into war. : J 7 ' It is not possible that Americans, the strongest people on earth, are ready to quit, ready to say to Hitler: “Here, take the oceans, control them with your submarines; America will retire within its own : wall while you rule the seas.” a
Faith in Ourselves
YET THAT IS what some are proposing to say to him. It would be the first time that a nation refused to Jook out for itself, refused to demand the place in the world to which its strength ‘entitled it, and humbly handed over control of its external commerce to an unfriendly power. If we did that, there would be no further reason to continue building a twoocean navy. The United States can become the dominant power in the world if we play our cards wisely. If we play them poorly, and lose our nerve, we are in danger of coming out. a second rate power, subject outside of our own borders to another nation’s bidding. America is entitled to more than that. We woyld be fools not to insist upon it. : : Give us someone who can say it. Give us someone who can say it as it ought to be said. Give us someone who can sing of the strength and greatness of the United States and who can make us feel it and believe it in our bones. i Give us that man, a Roosevelt or a Willkie, a Sandburg or a Stephen Benet, an Irving Berlin or another Gershwin—someone who can tell us and help us toward a living faith in ourselves. :

- There's Always an Exception
INSIDE INDIANAPOLIS explained last Thursday that the new ‘Government régulations governing down payments in installment buying really interfere very little -with most stores’ customary practice. Now comes a furniture dealer who says that’s right, EXCEPT that an initial payment of 20 per cent on heating stoves is going to prove a hardship to many persons. oy : . “This item,” he says, “is bought only by the low income class, and it is far from a luxury item. Even in normal times, a new stove is not bought until the old one is ready for the junk heap.” So he's notifying the Federal Reserve Board
Aviation WITH THE DEMAND for trained aviation mechanics growing more critical daily, it is becoming more difficult to reconcile this situation with the reported practice whereby Service aviation mechanics can obtain their discharge papers if they will volunteer for similar. servicing and maintenance work on warplanes operating in the vicinity of the Burma. Road. This just doesn’t _ make sense to the piloting personnel. ; Good mechanics keep our planes, engines, and all the things that go to make up a modern airplane, in the air. As long as the equipment stays put and keeps ticking the flying man is com‘paratively safe. But modern aviation machinery is intricate, deli- : 1 cate stuff which requires not only sound schooling but hard-won experience. The graduate of a Government-approved aviation mechanics’ school is fine material from which invaluable aircraft and engine mechanics can be made: But it takes experience to render this material really dependable; and it's pretty tough to see newly graduated mechanics serving as crew chiefs on the operating service line, while ‘even one experiencd man, with seasoning on top of his schooling, is released for any. kind of aviation mechanic's duty outside this country. : Airpower isn’t ships. It isn’t engines. It isn’t - pilots. It isn’t mechanics. It is all of those tied together and co-ordinated. While the need for experienced aviation mechanics is pressing hard now, we can anticipate what it will be when and if we get these gigantic plane and engine overhaul establish ments organized and working. . : There, again, the building and its equipment are only one factor in overhauling planes, engines and instruments. It's the trained manpower, . plus the ground equipment, that makes an overhaul base worth its salt.. And the servicing work for our aviation mechanics right now is concerned with keeping comparatively new airplanes and engines in the air.

Those Sick Calls 3
YOU'D THINK Governor Schricker was on some lodge’s sick committee, the way he was calling on the sick Sunday. _ He drove up to his old home town of Knox for a visit. While there, he went on up to LaPorte to visit his private secretary, Ed Wilken, who is seriously ill, and then the Governor went to North Judson and visited his own elder brother, also on the sick list. After the long trip back to Indianapolis, he found the Governor's mansion deserted. Soon the phone rang. It ‘was his son, George, notifying him that another son, Henry Jr., had just undergone an emergency appendectomy at Long Hospital. So out to the bedside the Governor hurried.
Son Henry is getting along well, according to the]
latest reports.

The Steps to Flying
. “COCKPIT-TIME’"—did you ever hear of that? It's not synonymous with flying time. It’s the time young military airmen are required to spend in the cockpits of the new jobs they are going to fly and are unfamiliar with. ; Se The military girman is a flying man who, through flight training and experience, has been able to relegate the handling of the controls to the guardianship of his subconscious mind. Learning to fly is step No. 1. Step No. 2 is learning to fly subconsciously so that the flight hantiling of the controls is automatic. And learning to fight, maneuver, shoot, and protect one’s
4 self in the air is step No. 3.
Subconscious handling of the controls must be based upon subconscious handling of the engine and cockpit machinery’ There's no time to look, study, fuss, or try to find a certain gadget. You must know where everything is inside the cockpit, and how to touch it without taking your eyes away from what's going on outside the cockpit.- This takes practice, practice and more practice, sitting in the cockpit rehearsing each move that may be required in flight and touching the right gadget without. looking. at it.. The term. “cockpit-time” is new, but the method is many years old. Out of early recognition of the necessity for simplifying the pilot’s handling of cockpit machinery was evolved the first plan for arrang-
- ing the instruments on ‘the cockpit panel. That scheme
is now the vogue. J 2 All the engine temperature instruments were placed in one group, all the pressure instruments in another. The water and oil temperature gauges were placed side by side; so with the gas pressure and oil Pressure Sauges, i so Hin the airspeed indicator ; meter which coun : tions a onacnom unts engine revolut ! This enabled a pilot to swing his eyes across the intsrument board and get a comprehensive picture of what his plane and engine were doing. It was all

igan St. Group Tells 7, .. Council. By RICHARD LEWIS
"The first organized protest against
rush-hour parking bans on the City’s arterial thoroughfares was delivered to City Council last night by a group of E. Michigan St. businessmen. Erg Council heard the delegation publicly sdeclining to approve a City-wide increase in taxicab fare rates under suspension of rules, ‘An ordinance increasing the rates was submitted 'by the Safety Board. The proposed increase would raise rates from 15 cents for the first mile and one-half to 15 cents for the first mile and from 10 cents for each mile thereafter to 10 cents for each four-fifths ‘mile thereafter.
Called Business Injury Spokesmen for the business group asked Council to’ reconsider the rush-hour parking ban ordinance on E. Michigan. St. They said it was hurting their businesses. Council President Joseph G. Wood

instituted recently as a means of ‘facilitating traffic movement in and out. of the downtown area during morning and evening hours. : "Frees Extra Lane : No parking is permitted on the north side of Michigan St. from 7 to 9 in the morning to free an extra lane for inbound traffic and from 4:30 to 6 in the evening for outbound traffic. : Similar measures have been taken on N. Meridian St., N. Illinois St. N. Capitol Ave. and E. 10th Sts, while other thoroughfares are being considered. ; Cecil Byrne of the Victory Cleaners Co., 2706 E. Michigan St., said the parking ban was “taking $100 away from our business a week.” He said seven customers were arrested last night as ti stopped to pick up ‘or deliver clothing.
“Termed a Penalty
“It’s not fair to pick Michigan St. and let other streets go,” he said. “We feel as though we've been penalized. This is hurting us.”
Harry W. Moore, funeral director of 2050 E. Michigan St. said it was difficult for funeral processions to ). Leo H. MeAllister, loan company executive of 2248 »E. Michigan St., said the continuous flow of traffic made if difficult to board streetcars. “Someone has come up here With a plan and sold you men a bill of goods,” Albert C. Fritz, drugstore owner of 4101 E. Michigan St., told the Council. : “I don’t think you have thought his thing through,” he said. -“Acci-
where this rush-hour ordinance, is in .effect. Cars go faster. They scoot through to beat the streetcar. “There isn't any bottleneck out our way. . The real bottleneck is downtown.” ; ;
Claims Loer Handicapped
Dr. Walter E. Hemphill, Republican member, charged that Traffic Engineer James E. Loer’s “hands are tied” by the Safety Board in this and other matters. . Councilman Albert O. Deluse, Democrat, pointed out that Mr. Loer is employed under the Works Board. The Safety Board has nothing to do with the engineer, Mr. Deluse said. The request for rules suspension to permit immediate action on the taxi-cab fare increase came from representatives of the companies, according to Mr. Wood. ‘
Conditions Govern" Requests
Councilman Ernest C. A Ropkey, Democrat, said he thought cab rates are comparatively low here, but added he wanted to study the pro-
posal. : : . Asked whether the rate hike, if granted, would be followed by other requests for increases, Thomas R. Kackley, secretary of Red Cab, Inc, said that would depend on conditions generally. “We don’t expect to ask any further rate increase,” he said “put it is hard to tell what prices are going to be.”

I WALKED outside into the night. The guns ‘were, roaring again but that is a sound that is unheard after-a while. Like. the sound of city street traffic, it is all part of the scene. It was pitch-black, but now and then flashes from the guns would streak upward through the night to light it for a moment. Trucks were rumbling past. Through the blackness I could distinguish a white square on the side of each truck. Inside the white square there was a red cross. These trucks were going away from the front. They were all full. One truck stopped and there was incredibly the sound of swearing in an unmistakable American “voice, ‘This was one of a group, of ambulances belonging to the American field service. .
