President Holland of the Houston Na- tonal Bank and other Houston business men de- clare that there will be two men who have not heretcfore taken any personal interest in polities to take a place in the active ranks of every desertion. Perhaps the most active and effective work done for Gov. Smith at Houston was that of the “Texas for Smith Club.” It was made up of most of the business men of Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Waco and other Texas cities and the young men and women of the entire State. There were rally thousands of them at work, their yellow badges were everywhere. Even Gov Moody declared that Texas will rally behind Smith and Robinson . with the normal Demo- cratic majority. The best testimony heard at Houston was that for every Democrat who votes against Gov. Smith or stays at home there will be two to vote for him who usually do not take enough intreest to go to the polls on election day. Texas is not only for Gov. Smith but she is enthusiastically for him. REMITTANCES BY IMMIGRANTS The circumstance that remittances from for- eign-born residents of the United States to rela- tives in foreign lands have declined from $700,- 000,000 the year after the war to about $200,- 000,000 in 1927 is indicafive of improved con- ditions in Burope. The need for money over there has ceased to be so pressing as it was in the days before rehabilitation. Another cause for the reduction in the stream #*of money that flows from this country to the people of Europe is found in the fact that abouf halt of the more than 1,300,000 immigrants to arrive here during the last three years said that they had received the funds necessury to bring them to America from relatives in this country. They are here now and their support is a matter of demestic finance. Of remittances from foreigners in the United States to home people about $25,000,000 a year 48 being sent to China—due in large measure to the devastation there caused by war. It is estimated that Chinese in this country have been sending from $300 to $500 per capita back to their people in the Orient. The remittances have prevented a great amount of life loss and suf- _fering that unquestionably would have resulted it it had not been for the American money.

(New York Professor Alexander McAdie, Director of the rvard Obsrevatory, has recently, with the ac- of an astronomical architect, divided the atmosphere about and above the earth into sev- steries or apartments. But this ification, which is something more than a Dantean dream, has in no way disturbed assumption that one who owns a farm or even a town lot owns all the way up. Every hut theoretically scraps the sky in its ethereal attic, which Dr. McAdie puts in the sixth story. And, practically, one might lawfully prevent hunters from shocting birds in his sky or might himself shoot birds that menaced his crops or threat- ened to swoop down and prey upon his chickens. Till now the whole matter has been as acad- emic as the question concerning the angels and the point of a needle. But with the advent of the airplane angels have become very real and noisy, and earth dwellers have begun to ask whether these winged ones may roar through their skies with all the freedom of the ancient gods and angels, by day and night, and even graze their chimney-pots and trees. The question just been specifically raised in . Worcester, where property owner living near an has scught an injunction to prevent flying in the lowest stratum of air over his estate, or “‘unreasonable operation” at any height. Lord Montague of Beaulieu was one of the first to point out the coming necessity of strictly defining air routes with beacons and ground markings, at- | tended by air traffic policing, of forbidding flights below tain altitude and of regulating speed and noise at the higher altitudes The Judge in the Worcester case has refused to grant the temporary injunction sought, pend- ing a full hearing. It is anticipated, however, that hte case will ultimately reach the United States Supreme Court. If this one does not, othe no doubt will in time, and so determine how far above the earth the property rights of those extend who own a bit of its surface, and whether one’s earthly possession does, after all, like the top of the tree in King Nebuchadnez- zar's dream, really reach the sky. Times.) scientific “Alaska or Bust!” Is Motto of Hyde Park Boy. (Cincinnati Times-Star.) Charles Herbert, 18, recent Withrow High School graduate, has a long road ahead of him. Clad in khaki, prepared for any kind of weather he encounters, carrying a twenty-five-pound pack, young Herbert headed Wednesday for Fairbanks, Alaska, “taking off” at 5:30 a. m. [June 19]. From Cincinnati to St. Louis, then to Salt Lake City, then to Seattle, is the itinerary this youthful cross-country adventurer has set for himself. He plans to traverse the miles between here and Seattle by “hitch-hiking,” which is road-jargon for picking up rides from motorists, From Seattle to Fairbanks, Alaska, by boat— and then five years of mining engineering at the Mining College there. For a number of years Herbert has been interested in the prospect of entering mining engineering and now is on the actual road to find out all about it. Big-game hunting is another attraction that Alaska holds, and after he is established in Fair- banks, Herbert will get a gun, and, in the hunt- ing season, fare forth for big game.
