HAPPIER LIVES
In an address before the students at
Camp Wilkins, Athens, Georgia, on
the subject of agricultural education
and the necessity for aplpying scien
tific methods to farming, II. A. At
kinson, chairman of the Georgia Rail
way and Power company, said:
My company realizes that agricult
ural and industrial development go
hand in hand. Industry furnishes the
home market for the farm product.
It is my aim and desire to make elec
tricity available for the farm. Some
of the results of this would be:
"1. Greater use of machinery on
the farm.
"2. Substitution of mechanical for
man power.
"3. Greatly increased production
per man.
"4. Conservation of human life
and strength.
"5. Greater comforts and conven
iences on the farm.
"6. Less drudgery in the home.
"7. Greater opportunities for rec
reation.
"8. Greater attractiveness and in
terest to farm life.
"9. Farm and country life will be
come more desirable than city life.
"10. The mechanical problems will
nterest the young men and keep them
on the farms.
"11. Happier lives.
"I want to call to the attention
of you young farmers the importance
of exercising your privileges of citi
zenship and your duty to vote. It is
vital that you, as farmers, take an
interest in governmental affairs. You
should see that the right men are
elected to office and that taxes are
reasonable and not so excessive that
iney win decrease rattier than in
crease revenue by driving industries
and citizens out of the state."
PR0-LI0.U0R PLAY
LAUDED AND HIT
Washington, Sept. 10. Augustus
Waters." came in for praise Wednes
day night from G. C. Hinckley, na
tional secretary of the Association
against the Prohibition Amendment,
after it had drawn criticism Wednes
day from Wayne B. Wheeler, general
counsel of the Anti-Saloon league.
Mr. Thomas returned to the stage
after an absence of a quarter cen
tury to take the part in his play of
a United States senator who votes one
way and drinks another. Mr. Wheel
er described the j)Iay as "propagan
da" and predicted its early failure
on that ground, but Mr. Hinckley
lauded it for "dealing with the cor
ruption and rottenness attending the
prohibition experiment."
"So far as we know, 'Still Waters'
is the first play to be staged which
presents the case against prohibi
tion" said Mr. Hinckley, while Mr.
Wheeler asserted that the playwright
nad "become blinded by passion to
the majority mind of the nation."

COMMANDER RODGERS
RECEIVES PROMOTION
He is Appointed Assistant Chief o
Bureau of Aeronautics; to Re
port at Once.
Washington. Sept. 11. Command
er John Rodgers, rescued after nine
days afloat in the mid-Pacific in his
plane PN-9, No. 1, today was ap
pointed assistant chief of the navy s
bureau of aeronautics.
He will report to Washington as
soon as possible to assume his new
post.
Secretary Wilbur decided on the
appointment late last night when he
learned of the rescue of the PN-9
No. 1, and its crew.
Commander Rodgers will retain
for the time being at least his pres
ent rank and pay, although he suc
ceeds a captain, A. W. Johnson, who
asked for sea duty.
The new assistant chief was among
the first naval officers to receive avi
ation training, having taken instruc
tions from the Wright brothers in
Dayton. O., in March, 1911. In Au
gust of that year, when the pioneer
officers in naval aviation were assem
bled into the first naval aviation de
tachment, he was senior officer In the
group.
It was while on this duty that he
made the first flight across land by
a naval officer. He flew a Wright
machine from Annapolis to Balti
more and back.
In the fall and winter of 1911, he
co-operated with his cousin, C. P.
Rodgers, in making the first cross-
continent flight in this country. With
other pioneer aviators of the navy he
established the first naval aviation
station at San Diego in January
1912. and his experiments with sea
plane floats there are credited with
having done much toward carrying
aviation out to sea with the fleet.
He began a tour of regular naval
duty in August. 1912, but returned
to the aviation branch in July, 1922.
taking command of the naval air
station at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, lie
took command of the aircraft tender
Wright, with the scouting fleet, after
completion of the joint army and
navy maneuvers around Hawaii last
spring. It was while on that duty
that he was selected to command the
PN-9. No. 1.

Chicago, Sept. 11. Investment

road officials at the freight hearing

gestion for "special treatment" of

HEINEN STICKS TO CLAIM
Lakhurst, N. J., Sept. 11. Reit
erating his conviction that the re
duction of the safety valve system
from eighteen to eight valves was the
cause of the disaster which overtook
the dirigible Shenandoah, Capt. An
ton Heinen, German dirigible ex
pert, in a telegram to Secretary of
the Navy Wilbur, made public today
challenged the "possibility of any
truthfully convincing testimony that
the gas bags were intact when the
ship broke up."
Captain Heinen's telegram was an
answer to a statement issued by the
secretary of the navy, in which he
6aid it was manifest that the acci
dent to the Shenandoah was in no
wise due to the change in the es
cape valves; that the gas bags did not
explode, and that the Shenandoah
struck a small, unanticipated torna
do or line squall which she could
not avoid.
