LINDBERGHS LIFE INTIMATELY SEEN fitdry of Man Who Flew to' Fame in 34 Hours —_— {BY MORRIS DE HAVEN TRACY) United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright 1927 by United Press) Chapter One Charles A. Lindbergh's greatest wversion is his own curly blonde \air. , He likes French pastry well enough to ask an ambassador for a second helping, but he likes pie bet- ter. As a boy he played with the other kids and in college he liked to make experimenta in the laboratories but disliked to write up his notes, 30 he didn't write them. Which are just some of the things which go to show that Charles W. Lindbergh is no superman different from other people but is just a nor- mal American youth who had three outstanding characteristics, namely, complete mastery of himself, direc- tion in life, and great courage. Before going a bit behind the scenes he may seem only an amas- ing adventurer. You believe he must be a genius and that Charlie Lind- bergh just happened to be born blessed with luck and a darling of circumstances. But it when one is amazed at his splendid. tact shown in a speech of 100 words which sends a gathering of French statesmen and citizens into wild enthusiasm, it is recalled that his father was a power to be met in politics for 20 years and his grandfather sat in the parliament of Nweden. It is realized that his hgredity is one which points to such skill, ‘When one reads of his exquisite courage, it can be recalled that his grandfather lost his right arm hew- ing at the trees to clear his home- stead in the Minnesota forests and a few months later was back wield- ing in his left hand his great axe once more. And it was his own father who, becauss he was busy, summoned a friend to an operating room where surgeons were operating upon him, and for an hour while the surgeons worked, without an anaesthetic, talked politics and then feared his friend, not himself had suffered. When one reads of his liking for mechanics and desire for attempting that which is new, it is recalled that his maternal grandfather, Dr. C. H. land, was an inventor, and was a pioneer of modern dentistry. Thus courage, the steadfast pur- pose and the simplicity of Charles Lindbergh's great feat of flying the Atlantic can be traced back through vears and years. One finds that the blood of the Norsemen in him s mixed with the blood of the Cru- sadet a4’ ‘he Lion Hearted's day.” And » are the bloods of courage, of iz thought and living, and of adventure. February 4, 1902, that this s born, in a comfortable home 1 Detroit, Michigan. His mother as Evangeline Lodge Lindbergh 1d his father Charles A. Lindbergh wyer and later a member of con- gross. His father was born in Sweden. Rut in 1860 he had come with his own father to Sauk Center, Minne- sola. There the older Lindbergh liad sct himseH to the task%f build- ing a pioneer Nome. He had felled the trees and built a log cabin, 12 by, 16 feet, and in it the father of Charlie Lindbergh played through his early childhood. There came an incident, typical of the history of this family. One day elder Lindbergh fell across a His right arm was all but »d. Tt was 60 miles to the home e ncarest doctor. Neighbors, ly the Rev. C. S. Harrison of 5, Neb., who told of the incident, him what care they could. It three days before the doctor ar-| 1. The arm was amputated and w months later the Rev. Harri- records that the older Lindbergh s back hewing away at the for- csts, SWinging an axe with his left arm—not to he defeated in his pur- pose. As to Lindbergh's father. much is written in contemporary history. He spent :is boyhood attending cem- mcn sc. vols and gave much time to is, *h fishing and life in the open. = 31 he cntered Grove Lake twor . Minn, and in 1587 he Tidg duated from the University MI( jgan and began the practice | bot Ha 46 into congress in 1906 on :‘(" it of the wave of trust-bust- TASTE GOOD of the England of King Bich- | ing. He threw himself into the fight to unseat “Uncle Joe” Cannon| from the aspeakership and for the next 10 years was known as an in-| surgent, and a progressive in con-; gress. In 1916 he was defeated for re-election and two years,later, he joined the non-partisan league movement in Minnesota, becoming |ita candidate for governor, He lost by a narrow margin. In 1923 he sought the governor- {ship again. This time Charles had {learned .to fly and he carried his father from town to town by air- plane, as the campaign became spirited. Again Lindbergh was defeated. In 1924 Congressman Lindbergh died from a long standihg malady and Charlle scattered his father's ashes from an airplane over the farm where his boyhood had been spent. Tomorrow another chapter in the lite of this amazing young man will| be printed in The Herald. LA ENFORGEMENT VERY ESSENTIAL Is Text of Goolidge's Memorial Day Talk Washington, May 31.—Law ob- servance was declared nacessary by | President Coolidge yesterday for the maintenance of America's institu- tions gnd for the continuance of its influence in world affairs. Results of the past are predica he said, upon a law abiding peop! Honoring the war dead as has been his custom in & Memorial Day address at Arlington National ceme- tery, the president warned that “we are always confronted with the in- escapable conclusion that unless we observe the law we cannot be free.” “We have made our place in the world through the Union and the constitution. We have flourished as a people because of our success in | establishing self-government. “Unless we are an industrious; orderly nation we can neither minis- ter to our own requirements or be an effective influence for good in the world.” ' Recalling secession movements in the North as well as that of the South which were culminated by the Civil war, Mr. Coolidge took cog-| nizance of “its heirs and successors in all the different brands of sec- tionalism with their special pleaders who are oftentimes extremely vocal.” He condemned) efforts sedking to ad- tion at the expense of | another as a “specics of disloyalty to the spirit of the Union.” On hehalf of the nation the execu- |Tive bestowed “affectionate garlands | of honor and acclaim” for those who Igm'e their lives in its support but she called also for respect for its | living protectors. Giving assurance | | of general prospects of - peace throughont the world he declared {that an adequate defense always| | be maintained ‘“with our | would | forces dedicated solely to the pres- ervation of peace.” In world affairs the president | asked for the substitution of reason | | and law in the place of force and| compulsion and added: | “It is because of our helisf in| | these principles that we wish to see | | all the world relieved from strife | {and conflict and brought under the | humanizing influance of a relgn of |law. Our conduct will be dictated. not in accordance with the will of the atrongest, but in accordance with the judgments of righteousness. “It 18 in accordance with this policy that we have sought to dis- continue the old practice of compe- tition in armamenta and cast our in- fluonce on the side of reasonable limitations. We wish to discard the element of force and compul- sion in international agreements and conduct and rely on reason and law. We recognize that in the present | state of the world this is not = vision which will be immediately realized, yet little by little, step by step, in every practical way, we should show our determination to | press on toward this mark of our | high calling. | “Our government has recently been attempting to proceed in ac- | | cordance: with these principles in fts | | relations with China. Nicaragua, and Mexico, and in inviting Japan and | Great Britain to participate in a | three-power naval limitation confer- | | ence. | | “While the foreign relations of | | this country are becoming more and | more important. and constitute a | | fleld to which it will be necessary | | for, our government and our people to give much more attention then s | now realized, vet it is our domestic | affalrs that must always assume the | irst rank.

Even the blind do not choose the blind to lead them. “Forelgn peoples are “certainly going to seek assistance only from those who have demoustrated their capacity to maintain their own at- fairs efficlently.
