Will Rogers thinks the Senate has been unduly criticised for not sing the tariff bill during the special session. He said “they didn’t pass the l‘.u'i[f‘ bill, for the thing wasn’t any good,” and added 1 Never blame a legislative body for not doing something. When they do nothing, that don't hurt anybody. When they do something is when they bec dangerous There is wisdom in the observations of the former Mayor of Beverley Hills. The country would be a lot better off if Congress and State Legisla- tures had spent more time doing nothing instead of passing bills. ADDING TO THE FAME OF GEN. | HANCOC When the Senate recently, through the co-opera- tion of Insurgent Republican Senators from the sheep and agricultural States and the Democrats, principally from the agricultural South, raised the tariff on raw wool from 30 cents to 34 cents a pound and reduced the rates on manufactured wool- en goods, it again demonstrated the truth of the famous declaration of Gen. Hanc that the tariff is a local question. The Westerners who have at- tacked the high tariff schedules designed to benefit the Eastern manufacturers anxious to write into the tariff measure all the protective features that it is possible to get for the ipterests within their States. They believe that the tariff ought to be lowered on the class of goods the East makes which the farmers must purchase but raised on the foods and raw materials like those produced in the West that manufacturers must buy. This illustrates exactly what Gen. Hancock meant, yet his declaration undoubtedly lost him the Presidency. A change of less than 11,000 votes in New York would have given the election to Hancock instead of Garfield. It is believed that his tariff declaration cost him many more. are GOVERNMENT INVITES S ON AIR TRAFFIC CON FGESTIONS TROL. ! In an endeavor to bring about uniformity in the matter of air traffic control, the Department of Commerce has organized a committee on standard signal sy; ¢ airports which is now inviting suggestio from airport managers and engineers, aircraft operators, and all others interested in the subject, according to Col. Harry E. Blee, Director of the Department's Aeronautic Development Serv-| ice. This committee includes representa ives of the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce, Bureau of Aeronautics of the Navy Department, the U. S. Army Air Corps, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, the National Bureau of Standards, and the Aeronautics Branch of the Department of Commerce. The committee is mnow requesting that it be furnished with descriptions of the systems of air traffic control in use or projected at individual air- ports and is inviting suggestions and plans general, ms of traffic control are grouped under three headings: Oral, visual, and radio. The system ultimately adopted by major air terminals will doubtless embrace all three types of equipment. “Airports are the bottle-necks of air transport,” says Col. Blee. “As time goes on and the aerial bl LU T LT L T T T T T T = MEN'S BATH ROBES \D SMOK Men’s Pendleton Blazers, $14.50 va Men’s Suits and Overcoats Men’s Fancy Dress Hose, $1.25 val Men’s Fancy Dress Hose, $1.75 val Women’s Pendleton Bath Robes, $2 Pure Linen Table Cloths ... .
