about heaven have been revised a
lot. Long ago I have abandoned the
idea that heaven is a place where
there is nothing to do except sit on
a stone and play a harp or a saxo
phone. I think there will be good
fishing spots where the banks are
shady and there are no hidden brush
piles on which to snag the lines, and
where live minnows and fat worms
may be picked off the bushes. Also I
have revised my ideas about who will
be there and expect to be greatly
surprised in that respect. There are
some people I just naturally do not
like to be with, do not like to have
in the same town, and I wonder just
what heaven will be if these are
there with full franchise privileges.
Just how is a fellow going about

Knocks out
thatrknoclC
There is no denying the progress
aviation is making in the United
appears, though, according to a re-
....
cent survey, that while we exceed
as to the handling of the mails, we
are behind considerably as to pas
senger transportation, Europe being
ahead of us in this feature of avia
tion. But this deficiency will not
long continue to our detriment, for
sooner or later, likely sooner, our
country will surpass all others in all
the factors of air travel. The an
nouncement latel of a fast trip from
coast to coast has given a fresh im
petus to travel by air. This time is
given as two nights and one day, so
that a business man will be able to
visit the eastern coast, spend a day
on his errand and return by the
! middle of the week. This supposes
nothing like the chapter of accidents
will intervene. But these are hur
ried affairs, but if so desirous, the
business man can leave the Pacific
port say Saturday night, arrive in
the eastern port SunBay night, ar
riving home Tuesday night, ready for
Wednesday business.
The mail service via the air be
tween the two oceans has been for
months in successful operation, mak
ing mail deliveries in New York the
third morning. This air postal ser
vice has been a success from the
start, with the country being rapidly
covered with a network of post air
lines. In this feature of aviation the
government acted wisely from the
start, making contrasts for the carry
ing of mails in privately-owned air
ships.
The government is spending large
sums for aircraft intended for army
and navy. In addition to former ap
priations. last year congress appro
priated a further sum of $10,500,000
So all around we are making mater
ial progress in aviation, and this will
continue.
A Washington dispatch gives the
following statement of the director
of aeronautics of the department of
commerce:
"The conclusion that European air
service is still ahead of that in the
United States, bo far as passenger
air travel is concerned but has no
comparable mail transport establish
ment, has been reached by Clarence
M. Young, director of aeronautics for
the commerce department, who re
turned from a month's inspec
tion of airways and air facilities in
Europe.
" 'There are many points as to
detail and operation in which Eu
ropean practice in commercial fly
ing can furnish ideas for us,' Mr
Young said. 'Nevertheless, our net
work of airways and of aids to nav
igation and our effective night fly
ing installation for mail transport
has no comparable duplicate any
where in the world.
" 'There is the demand there for
passenger transport by air which has
net yet been equaled here, but if
that demand appears we are prob
ably equipped to handle it in greater
volume than the European air ser
vices now exhibit.' "
:o:
KEEPING PACE WITH CRIME
There can be little doubt that the
science of crime detection and pre
vention has failed to keep pace with
the increasing complexity of crim
inal activities. In other words, the
criminal has succeeded in reaching a
higher state of perfection in his pro
fession than has the policeman. If
ever there was a need for the super
detective, heretofore a figment of
the fiction writers, that need exists
now.
Therefore, society may well take
an interest in the plans of the Uni
versity of Chicago and Northwestern
University to establish departments
of criminology for the training of
police officers. That the center of
crime in America should cradle these
potential deliveries of society from
gang rule is satrical, but fitting. Be
that as it may, no better laboratory
could be chosen, for the supply of
better specimens is abundant there.
Present-day criminal methods call
for more than fleet feet and hard
night-sticks. The time has come to
put to work the vast fund of infor
mation divulged by the laboratory
and clinic. Brawn, courage and per
sonality, always valuable, must be
supplemented by brain, knowledge
and scientific apprehension. Crime
is not a mere incident of human re
lationship. It is a cancer on the so
cial body and well within the pre
cincts of the exact sciences.
:o:
Crossing a street is an exhiliar-
ating sport but it is humiliating to
be licked by a flivver and thrown for
a loss when only two yards from
the curbstone goal.
:o: ' .
Flower sprays are apt to include

We nominate for the Never-Let-Go
LPrize of 1929 James Cannon Jr., doc
tor of divinity; bishop, Methodist
Episcopal Church, South; executive
committee, World League Against
Alcoholism. In the last presidential
campaign, he played Achilles to Al
Smith's Hector. He was a far more
energetic campaigner than Mr. Hoo
ver; in fact he was matched in zeal
only by Mrs. Willebrandt. Al thought
the Bishop was beaten at Houston.
November saw the political corpus of
Smith attached to Cannon's chariot,
which was also decorated with such
trophies as Virginia, Texas and North
Carolina.
Most men would be content to rest
on such a triumph. But the Bishop
has again invaded the political field
to rally the anti-Smith Democrats of
Virginia against the possible nomin
ation of a Smith Democrat at the
gubernatorial primary next August.
The Bishop refuses to countenance
for Governoi of Virginia any mau
who voted for Al Smith, or who ac
cepted or followed his leadership in
the presidential campaign. This, of
course, would bar from the race such
distinguished Virginians as Senator
Glass, Governor Byrd and President
Alderman of the University of Vir
ginia. :o:
A LESSON IN WORLD PEACE
During the years since the World
War, when the wisest national lead
ers in the world have looked eagerly
for some waj out of the menace of
armed conflict, it has grown more
and more evident that one of the
most significant facts on earth is the
3000-mile undefended frontier be
tween the United States and Canada.
Here are two nations that have
found out so well and are so con
fident about it, that they have taken
it for granted that nothing can ever
make them go to war with each
other; thus they leave their frontier
unguarded, without a soldier or a
warship along its length.
Now the English are beginning to
realize the significance of this fact.
If Ramsay MacDonald and Herbert
Hoover confer this summer on naval
reduction, the Canadian frontier will
surely stand in the forefront of their
conversations. It shows what two
nations can do if they try. It gives
Britain and the United States a mark
to shoot at.
