One need not subscribe to such creedal tenets as papal infallibility on faith and morals, virgin birth, transubstantiation, opposition to divorce and birth control, etc., to agree wholeheartedly with the spirit of the Pope's latest encyclical “Nova Im- pendet.” Yet it has much flavor of the economic, concerning which there is such diffusion of tongues. Naturally the Pope in the present material state |of the world puts emphasis on charity, and wants a new crusade for it.

The principles of Covernment finance in !he‘ United States, their appiication, and the problems facing the country now are clearly and briefly set forth by the Naticnai City Bunk of New York, in its current monthly review of general conditions. It is written in terms easiy understood by the Reforming the Calendar. (Manchester Guardiar.) The League of Nations Conference on Calendar Reform meets on October 12. Even the United States Government has appointed a delegate, Dr. C. F. Marin, to the Conference. It appears that two alternate plans for reforming the calendar will be considered. There is a plan whereby the year investor, which must come about living {upon au unscund basis of linance. would be divided into thirteen months each of Not ‘only will many Innocent holders of twenty-eight days, leaving one day, to be called Government bonds susiain losses, but the Year Day, unprovided for.

The sun will rise and the sun will set, but will have to be done. in the reckoning of time there will have peen a pause. Year Day recommends the plan. It would be a pleasant institution. One might do all manner of things on Year Day simply because it was not a day attached to a particular year. The alternative plan is less drastic. It would keep twelve months in the year, have equal quarters in thirteen weeks, the first month of each quarter having thirty- qne days, the other months thirty days. Both plans are attempts to give the year an orderliness that it now lacks. Unfortunately, the universe is not arranged on a basis of convenient numbers; and times does not easily fall into numerical symmetry. What can one do with a year that lasts for 365 days 5 hours and 49 minutes? The year cannot be trimmed or stretched to a convenient number of days; its length is inexorably fixed. Nor can the length of a day be modified. The sun will not obey even a League of Natlons Conference on Cal- endar Reform. Scripture has ordained a seven- day week. Months only are variable, and by the manipulation of months but little rearrangement of the year is possible.

THE ARMY AND NAVY GAME. The two great nationa: service :chools, Army and Navy, are to meet on the gridiron again this year in a special game for the benefit of the un- employed. Last year, too, the cadets and middies matched football prowess for sweet ,charity's sake. Of course, if that is the only way that West Point and Anmapolis can have at one another in mole- skins, why then better that way that none at all, and there will alwavs be a worthy cause laying in wait for the opportunity to enlist their services.

Would it not be possible for the nation's unofficial observer at Geneva to go into a huddle with the War and Navy departments, or the President appoint a special fact-finding commission to iron out their differ- ences? ‘Then the embryo admirals and generals could once again play the game in the good old- . fashined way, for sportsmanship and in keeping ! with thq,(,'n-old traditions of their schools.

And Cornelius, who is 32 and a resident of Glendale, Cal, has a world of confidence in his idea, for he has been told by the War De- partment that the wings are im- practical Cornelius said he would attempt scfore long to circle the metropoli- tan airport here for a month. He .ntends to prove further that air- olanes are safe, and that a magi- cian is not needed to fly one. . “It is all in the corrective stabili- | zation wings,” he said. “With these wings I can set down a plane in 175 feet and at the limit of climb- | ing power it will nose over into al horizontal position.” | Wings Result of Accident Cornelius rode in his first air-) ] plane when he was 16 years old ut | Colfax, Wash. He built his first model soon afterwards. The same | year he said he saw an airplane accident in Portland, Ore., in which two men were killed. From then on, Cornelius said, he specialized in wings and endeavored to make them a single unit, work- ing in co-ordination with the tail surfaces. Out of those experiments, Wilbur Cornelius, 32, Glendale, Cal.,, salesman-aviator, hopes to beat endurance flight records in a plane built with “stabilization wings” of | his own design. The wings, perfectly balanced, are pivoted on the struts, he sald, has come the stabmzstltm[\ and their entire length tilts in response to the pilot’s stock. He is shown wings. with the plane. They are pivoted on the struts,| working in conjunction with the tail surfaces on ball bearing axles. The wings are perfectly balanced. Their entire length tilts in response to the pilot's stick. There are no ailerons. He'll Sleep While Flying “I can set the wings and fly at| a given altitude as long as the| gasoline holds out,” Cornelius says. “I can set the wings at 6,000 feet and fly from here to Reno, Nev.,| and be 6,000 feet up when I arrive.l When flying for endurance marks, T'll just set the wings and go to| sleep.” Cornelius possesses a private| pilot's license. He wrote the late President Woodrow Wilson about the stabilization wings, but his let- ter was given the War Depart-| ment.
