AGAINST THE LINDBERGH RACE Between midnight, July 31, and mid- night, August 31, aviators of the world will have the opportunity of participating in the New York to Paris air race, spon- | sored by the French government and known as the Lindbergh Anniversary race, Prizes totaling about $142,000 have been set up but considerable criticism arises from the fact that experts, includ- the race will advance the science of flight. They fear that one or more fliers will be in thé spectacular race over the Atlantic. Charles F. Horner, president of the ‘National Aeronautical Association, plans to advise the French of the sentiment here but, in view of the enthusiasm which the event has aroused in France, there is little likelihood of the race being called off. If it goes on, the Americans will do all that} @ they can to provide adequate + weather service for an event they do not approve. } Meteorologists say that at ieast ten weath- er ship stations should be established on the Atlantic days before the race begins. Already a number of foreign fliers have indicated that they will make the race and there is some rivalry between the governments of Europe in the construction of planes for the event.

Our boasted superiority in the ‘na- tional pastime” took a jolt in Mexico when the Agrarians, champions of that republic, downed the Philadelphia Athletics. How- ever, Mr. Mack’s boys are not so highly re- garded at home, where most everybody does the same and, while discouraging, the news was not much more than what was feared when the nine from the City of Brotherly Love went below the Rio Grande | for training purposes. More serious, however, is the news! from. Havana, Cuba, where the New York Giants, champions of the National League, run into a subtropical storm that has ’on the ropes, with Manager Bill y administering the smelling salts. It | seems that the Giants, in four games with Cuban professionals, went down every day to the intense delight of the volatile Cuban spectators. Of course, the New Yorkers will win a few games before they leave the Cuban capital but the damage is done and no longer will the Cuban tormentors look upward to their visitors, It’s all very sad. Maybe, the day will come when the baseball championship of the world will be decided in a split series | between Havana and Mexico, { a fee-for-service basis but each contributor | 30 40,090,000 people hours per week, thei: would aggregate ‘on! labor) or intained. « eB reduction of the working week fro forty hours to thirty would not elim- inate unemployment...
