PAYNE, BURNS & SMITH ‘ NEW YORK - -— - __ Fifth Ave. Bldg G (Official City, State and County Newspaper) Mr. Pinchot Gets Excited Governor Gifford Pinchot of Pennsylvania is all a-flutter. He ha law is not being enforced rigidly enough and he has laid the blame for this alleged condition at the doors of Mr. Mellon and Mr. Coolidge jointly. He believes that the federal government, instead | of helping! ‘him to enforce prohibition laws Pennsylvania, proved a great hindrance. Here is what he says about Mr. Coolidge is a power in Washington that could made even Mellon enforce tie law. I mean the president of the United States. The trouble with the Cool- idge administration is that it has talked in favor of the drys but acted in favor of the wets.” Again. Mr. Pinchot seems to be attacked with that recurring malady of his: to censure people without -. > first fully investigating the facts. If he had in- vestigated closely, he in all likelihood would never have made the speech. He insinuates that because Mr. Mellon was once “There » coming into control of prohibition en- And he is doing Mr. Mellon a very great ng that. For, despite his personal there have been few administrators of the Frehibition law who have attempted to enforce it so rig.dly. What Mr. Pinchot neglects to state is that he ha ““a group of non-cooperating officials in Pennsy vania. One can hardly expect the law to be en- forced to its fullest extent when a state will not work in harmony with the national government. If there i: as Mr. Pinchot claims, it is due to laxnes ficiency of state and not federal officials. and inef- The Doctrine of Prevention The International Health Board of the Rocke- feller Foundation has just issued a report which should serve to again focus the public eye on the - .admirable work of this institution. Both malaria and the hookworm ¢ appearing from the United States and are fast being { ted in other countries, the Foundatien’s re-| port says, And they are vanishing because of the! years of patient labor which the Foundation has spent working for their cure and outlining preven- tive measures. The great achievement in the eradication of hook- worm is not only the economic and rehabilita tion cf the millions who have been treated for it during the last 10 years. but also the development of measures which will insure its absence from this} country in years to come. | Among the southern negroes, especially, the | Foundation’s work has been nothing short ‘of mirac- ulous. A consistent educational program has been! carried on; treatments have been given, and the | negro is gradually learning the basic principles of | sanitation and disease prevention. Through its field staffs over the world, the Foundation has been steadily experimenting to find out what are the best methods of prevention of; those diseases ta which people in tropical and semi- tropical lands are particularly susceptible. From the latest report, it would seem, success has been theirs, and to a marked degree. Things have been done in the last 15 years by this organ- « ization to alleviate suffering and eliminate diseases 4° > Whick for hundreds of years went unchecked. These are achéevenients beside which many of our so-called “great accomplishments” seem small indeed. ~ +" 2 The Railroads Aren't Dead Yet Over the highways of the United States passes a mighty procession of busses, trucks and passenger automobiles—22,000,000 of. them—carrying people - and freight.

The first thing to do, however, is to find out what sort of a license you require. You must have a plane at your disppsal, for the examination includes practical flying tests.

This is because all planes engaged in interstate com- merce must be licensed and flown by licensed pilots. The classes of pilot licenses are, “Transport,” for pilots who may carry passengers or freight where- ever they desire; “Limited Com- mercial,” for pilots carrying pas- sengers only from one designated field; “Industrial” for non-passenger carrying commercial pilots and “Pri- vate or Student. The requirements for a “transport pilot” license are the stiffest, of course. One should pass his physical and mental tests before bothering with the practical flying tests. With, those passed, a man who can fly alone can obtain a private license if he can turn figure eights and make three successful landings. Student licenses are easy to ebtain, but the student may fly only while receiving instruction. Fifty hours of solo flying i quired for an industrial pilot and the pilot must make a 60. cross-country hop. He is permitted to carry freight, perform agricultural and other aerial odd jobs. — * College Note Well, it’s about time to be up and pursuing one’s studies again—and the co-eds. ope The only thing we want to know about the new Ford is how much noise it is capable of in a narrow! alley between 5’ and 6 on a Saturday morning. pee A prisoner in a California jail an-, nounced he would cry himself to death.
