“Not W ith Word*.”
A Pig'* Fife Badger
Game.
By ARTHUR BRISBANE.
V__S
Important news to commuters
and congested cities come from
Paris. Our congested cities should
investigate.
MonsieW Lauer, 84, has invented
the aero car, and the government
will build a sample “aero line.”
The car, 7 feet high, 7 feet wide,
and 40 feet long, is suspended be
low a cable 42 feet in the air,
slung from poles far apart. Each
car carries 100 passengers and the
speed is 50 miles an hour.
Most interesting of all, the car
hanging below the steel cable is
driven along as a flying machine is
driven. A pbwerful propeller nine
feetiin dianieter worked by electric
cuMent taken from the cable over
head, pushes the car, the aero pro
peDtt striking against the air, as a
ship2* propeller strikes against the
water.
The description sounds feasible,
and the scheme, if it works, as the
very practical French think it will,
would solve nine-tenths of our traf
fic problems, in cities and for sub
urban travel out in the country,
Sich aero car might even spread out
tt small pair of steel wings, or
planes, and make of the car a
“semi-flying machine,” all rights re
served for that idea. With power
enough and a big propeller, the car
might as easily go 100 miles an hour
as 50 miles. Then “New York to
fjhicago above the railroad, in nine
Hours, for $9.”
There woulfi be no unsightly ele
vated structure in city streets. No
obstruction whatever of light, ex
cept as cars passed, high up in the
air. And very little then. No ex
pensive right-of-way or roadbed
out in the suburhs. Every highway
could have its “aero” above it.
Imagine such a line running
along the center of Michigan ave
tiue in Chicago or Fifth avenue or
Park avenue, New York. Only a
few steel poles, far apart. What
an improvement on street cal's or
busses crawling on the surface.
For cross streets, one line would
conveniently pass above another.
The expense would be ridiculously
low, compared with subway digging,
and the people, of they had the
brains and if corporations would
allow it, might easily own their own
transportation facilities.
Mayor Hylan, who is about to
spend $300,000,000 on a subway
system to be owned by New York
City, ought to look into this Paris
ifero. I
Also the able engineers of the
General Electric and Westinghouse
companies should get after it. There
would be big dividends in aerial
lines from coast to coast.
Most important of all, this one in
vention might solve the problem of
city and suburban traffic as the au
tomobile settled the individual
transportation problem.
When you shoot a Britisher in
foreign lands, Great Britain takes
it seriously.
In Egypt, the other day, a mob
shot an important British official by
way of showing that it does not like
England.
Yesterday the"" British ^hipped
troops to Egypt ft m Malta, and
those troops will probably convince
the Egyptians that Britain does not
like to have her officials shot.
The British are polite and
diplomatic about it. But wherever
their empire or influence reaches,
they prove their understanding of
Machievelli’s saying, “It is not with
words that one maintains govern
ments.”
That is said to be Mussolini's fa
vorite motto. He has it engraved
on a sword, and he lives up to it.
England has it engraved on her
memory and without talking much
about it lives up to it also.
Machiavelli says that even
prophets must have arms or suc
cumb.
“All armed prophets have been
victorious and all unarmed prophets
have been vanquished, because the
mind of the people is fickle and it
is easy to persuade them that a
thing is right, but exceedingly diffi
cult to keep them steadfast in their
conviction.
“Moses, Cyrus, Theseus, Romu
lus would not have been able to en
force their constitutions for any
length of time if they had been dis
armed.”
Mohammed, Cromwell and Wash
ington knight be added to the list.
Mussolini, who embodies these quo
tations from Machievelli in an essay
written by himself, is the prophet of
fascism aftil docs not propose to be
caught unarmed.
London is much excited about the
scandal of the Indian “rajah, the
English blonde, and that blonde’s
husband. The people have titles and
the blackmail is big, in the British
case, but it. is simply, on a* bigger
scale, the old “badger came” so
well known to the American police.
The badger game is played as
follows: The woman leads the fool
into a trap that compromiser- them
both. Thru comes a pounding on
the door, shrieks by thp female, ter
ror of the fool. Door opens, enter
outraged husband, the badger game
partner.
The fool, afraid of later scandal
and more afraid of the pistol or
knife pointed at his inwards, no
pays all he can to soothe the hus
band’s “honor,” and makes his es
cape. That game is played all over
the United States all the time.
In the British case the rajah fool
gave up $750,000 in blackmail to
soothe the British husband. The
rajah, an important person, com
mander-in-chief of the Kashmir
army, helps t<5 maintain British rule
in the east, in return for protection
in the enjoyment of his individual
rank and fortune. So the English
government is trying to get back
badger game money without mak
ing his name public as sometimes

happens here, when respectability
gets mixed up in a scandal.
President Coolidge will ask lower
railroad freight rates and suggest
that the roads can make up the dif
ference by practicing economy.
That is not the railroad idea, how
ever. President Coolidge will find
that railroad management and rail
road wishes arc a department of
our government, although not listed
as such in the constitution.
Spain, after long, weary and
bloody war with Morocco tribes, is
compelled to compromise and will
sign an armistice, first withdrawing
her troops to a distance demanded
by Abdel Krim, the Moorish leader.
The Moors do not forget that they
once ruled Spain, leaving there
marks of dominion everywhere.
They do not propose to be driven
from African soil, that they owned
before any “Spain” existed.
The armistice, which confesses
defeat, is humiliating to the Spanish
people, as proud and courageous as
any on earth.
Neither nation, however, may
mock the Spaniards. It took the
Rritish empire years to defeat a
handful of Boers in South Africa
and the American government re
members 50 years of fighting
against a few warlike red Indian
trihes. Men fighting on their own
lands, for their own homes, and
therefore with justice on their side,
are not easily defeated.

PAWNEE HIGHWAY

Table Rock, Nov. 54.—TCnglneers
representing the federal government,
the state department of public works
and the Burlington railroad were in
Pawnee county recently, and in com
pany with TV. ,T. Campbell, county en
gineer, outlined an extensive pro
gram of Improvements on the fed
eral highway through Pawnee county.
Work on t ho projects will begin next
spring, if the plans are approved by
higher officials.
The most important changes will
lake place at Table Rock. Instead of
winding about and crossing the Bur
lington tracks in several places the
highway will continue north nnd en
ter Table I took on the street a block
west of the ball park. A large via
duct will he built over the railroad
tracks which come to I’awnee City,
thus doing away with crossing this
main line and several switch tracks.
The highway will then cross only the
track to Idncoin, a quarter mile
north of the station.
