NEED OF AVIATION CONTROL. Establishment of a federal bureau of aeronautics as a means of regulating flying is provided for in a bill now before congress. The bill should be passed in the interest of advancement of aviation. The need of federal control of flying was strikingly illustrated in Washington several days ago, when a plane swooped down "over a crowd listening to an address by President Harding, frightening many and making it impossible for all to hear what the president was saying. Although this flyer had been requested not to make the flight, there was no authority of law to stop him. Such legislation will inspire in the public gfireater confidence in -the safety of flying than is now had, and so will pave the way for the establishment of aerial transport lines. It is the fear of accidents that makes the public unwilling at present to patronize passenger-carrying airplanes in sufficient numbers to make the business profitable. But if the government takes control, lays down regulations for the prevention of mishaps, and assumes such supervision over aerial navigation as it does over water transportation, civilian aviation will develop rapidly. It is, however, not only to protect people on the ground that laws are needed for the regulation of flying. It is in the interest of the fliers themselves that such legislation should be enacted. They and their machines will be safeguarded by laws calling for federal inspection of aircraft and examination of pilots. Accidents will be fewer if no one is permitted to run an airplane unless possessed of a federal license, which shall be granted only after a test of the prospective pilot's " qualifications has been passed, and if no machine is permitted to take to the air unless its good condition has been vouched for by a government inspector.

BUSINESS IN GOVERNMENT. . Demand for better business methods in the federal government became insistent during the latter years of the Wilson administration. When Presndent Harding named A. W. Mellon, secretary of the treasury he took a long stride toward the desired goal. Secretary Mellon is a splendid example of the practical business man in charge of an important branch of the federal government. He is conducting the business of the treasury department with the same finesse of practical financiering as though it were the Mellon National Bank of Pittsburgh, ,which grew under his guidance from a small beginning to an . institution with resources of $150,000,000. Secretary Mellon has already saved the nation many millions through application of his ability to expertly diagnose the money market at all times, and a consequent steadily sometimes drastically lowered rate of interest on government borrowings. A recent issue of government securities at 3 3-4 per cent interest is a case in point. Less than two years ago the treasury was paying 5 3-4 per cent on short time gold notes. While the second installment of income taxes is being paid this month, large payments are due by the United States, necessiting the flotation of short time paper. That the money needed was obtained at a reduction of almost 50 per cent in the rate of interest that would have been paid several months ago is a striking illustration of the businesslike conduct of affairs by the present administration.

HAD HE lived, it would be a difficult matter right at this stage of the campaign to hold T. R.

EARLY MARRIAGES BEST. Early marriage has been often held up as one cause of divorce. Now a Chicago judge who has heard 6,500 divorce cases in two years urges early marriage as the best way for young people to avoid the causes which lead to separations and wrecked homes. This only one essential, however. He further stipulates that the young man must have a job, and it must be the right girl. In the girl's interest we assume that the right young man is also implied. Such a union does not go wrong. Yet, it is imperative that there be no mistake in judgment, as to both being right. When married, they should start fighting for a home, he stipulates. He would have them do their fighting for that object and not to get the better of each other. Certainly that would help in making it a happy marriage. "Too many couples," he says, "insist on having bank accounts, furnished homes and automobiles all ready before they marry and in waiting for these things they grow selfish. They want things their own way. When things go wrong they rush into the divorce court. They won't give in and the future of their children does not concern them." And the worst of it lies in that so many appear to regard a marriage failure as a rather spicy episode, as something scarcely to be regretted since it can be soon mended by another marriage. A marriage failure is not more commendable than any other kind of a failure.

Coming Back

Slowly but steadily general conditions are improving. The price spread is being narrowed. Conditions which had fallen too much are rising in price. Others which had remained too high are falling. More goods are moving as is shown by the increased number of freight cars loaded each week. This promises better business for every one, farmer, merchant and manufacturer. This bank is equipped to meet the needs of reviving business and offers you and your friends every banking service.
