OUR coxsemvm: rs OUR (11.1111:
Disbussing the unratificd treaty of
alliance ,between Great llritain.
France and the United States which
pledged this country to go todhe nld
bf France if she is: again attacked
without provocation by Germany. the
Philadelphia Public ”Ledger says:

"In the event of another German
invasion of l‘runce. there is little
' oub‘t that 1.0111 the United States and

ngland would be drawn it‘to the
struggle. There would not he the dc-
lay for this country that there was
If there is to

be American rcsponsibtlity at that
. time. why should we not make it clear
now. that it‘ the German evcr hurls
his masses across the Rhine. we stand
teadv to help throw them back once
more?"

On its face. the pleas of tht Ledger
is a very plausible one but there are
One~ or two view-points: which are not
mentioned by this advocate of en.

ytangllng alliances but which will ap—
peat strongly to the American mind
when they are once fairly considered.

Ill-the first plat-t it is nearly always

question admitting of doubt wheth—

-' an attack is: ultra. 1t provocation.
’1! Germany sh O‘V‘ ade France she
._37011ld asstrt th France had com-
. mittcll some acts or threatened to

commit. acts which justified her in
making the (illaf‘Z. ’ 011th: other
hand no maltrl how guilty F‘v-ancr
might be of provocative acts site
would claim that she was beingr at-
Iacked without provocation. If tilt
' United States bound herself to go to
ihe assistance of France in case of ar

{tack without justification thos cnunr

ryvzould subject itself to the prnbnh.

ifity of being accused of llreakinr
kaith with France it it should he
Heemed that France had been the. ag-
greasor.

The only wise course for the l‘nitel’
States to pursue is that clearly and
Hirectly set forth by President Hard-
ing in his inaugural address wherein
he said. “\\'e do not mean to be en-
‘tungled. “’0 will accept no responsi»

, billty except as our owu conscience

and judgment in each instance may

. 'determine." There. is no need for a

«filmy in order to assure the French

ople’ of the good will and lasting

friendship of the United States

case of a war between France and am-

, other "country. probably the sympa—

hhles 6f the. great majOrity of Amer-
icans would be with France. ,

As President Harding also said.
"Our eyes never will be. blinded to a.
Beveloping menace; our ears never
aeaf to the call of civilization, but
America. our America the America

. bonded on the foundations laid by the
inspired fathers. can be a party to no
permanent military alliance."

A8 everybody knows the Public
Ledger was a, vigorous and consistent
advocate of ratification of the treaty
with the League of Nations covenant
Incorporated in its provisions. Even

co it became apparent that the
treab' could not be ratified in the
form in which it was presented by
Meat. Wilson the Ledger has con-
(finned its agitation in favor of partici-
pation of the United States in Europ—

ean «stinks. Its latest utterance above
11110th has that purpose in view. It
I. strange indeed that a paper so ably
fitted is unable to understand the
mnttment of the American people as

AT HALF-WAY MARK

Thomas w. Lamont, Challmall,
,Tells of Belief Administered
End Task to Be Completed.

‘_———

The American Committee for China
Famine Fund, according to a state-
ment issued by Thomas W. Iamon
chairman, has reached the oecon
stage of its mlsslon of mercy of send-
lng funds from America to feed the
millions of Stan lug famine victim! in
the for eastern republic. At the low-
oot estimate, the statement says, just
on much more is needed to carry “the
lust 5.000.000" through to the June
harvest as has already been sent.

Mr. Lamont points out that quick
response by America to appeals made
by President Harding and his prede-

ln such prompt distribution of relief
that the threatened magnitude of the
famine has been checked to a marked
extent. A continuation of the efforts
so far made, it.” declared. will place
the famine rellel for China among
America’s most effective philanthro-

pics.

The Waiting Millions
There remain, however, the state-

.ment shows, a “last 5.000.000“ to be

saved, and these people can be saved
only by continuous and voluminous re-
lief resulting from American subscrip-
tions.

The statement. in part. follows:

“Quick response to the appeal of the
American Committee for China Fam-
ine Fund gives ‘us at the half-way
paint in our work the cheering assur-
ance that the subscriptions from gen?
erous America already have served a
great humanitarian purpose. inasmuch
as relief already administered has held
the famine in bounds and made it pos-
sible for America to save a multitude
of human beings.

“Whereas early estlmatcs made it
seem that millions must perish. we
now are advised that instead of the
15.000000 who. it was originally fear~
ed. were doomed to death from hunger.
relief at present in night from
sources, American, Chinese and for-
eign. is sufllclent to provide scanty ra-
tions until the June harvest for all ex-
cept 5,000,000 people. These ‘lnst
5.000.000' are destitute. according to
our latest reports from the American
Advisory Committee In Peking and are
dependent for existence upon new
help coming from outside sources, and
this means America.

Front All the People

“'It is the earnest hope of the Com-
mittee that the number of contribu-
tions made as well u the aggregate
will be such as to make our hulnanlta.
rlnn gift, in a mi sense, a gift of the
American people as a whole.

"One way to make individual en'ort
and generosity contribute toward sav-
lng China‘s starving population is for
every one responsive to
need in effect, to 'plck a pal
in China for 5 day! The thought
behind this spent appeal in conneo
tion with the latter part of our enort
will be for American men, women and
children to choose, figuratively. u Chl-
nese famine victim as I friend for a
day and to send what they spend one
day on themselves “Or an American
friend to the China Famine Fund el-

_ther through local committeeu, banks

or churches or direct to Vernon Mun-
roe, treasurer. Bible House, New York
City.

“No American is so poor that he
cannot save a life at the lowest rate
ever quoted. one dollar a month. Life's
quotations fluctuate. sometimes in one
nation. sometimes in another. but the
lower the quotation the greater the
opportunity of humanity. the opportu-
nity of human beings to save human
life. China is far away—6.000 miles——
but hunger is hunger. whether around
the corner or beyond the Pacific.

"We appeal to America to make ef-
fective the work already done in
checking the China famine disaster by
saving until harvest those already
saved from death."

W'ASHI NGTON April 13. —-—The
value to an aviator of knowledge of
air conditions is pointed out by C.
LeRoy Meislnger. gowrnment mete-
orologist. in a paper analysing the re-
sults of data gathered by the weather
bureau and the air mail service.

Mr.“ Meisinger explains that infor-
mation of upper air conditions has
enabled a. saving of as higheas two
hours in the time taken for certain
air mail trips. of 450 miles and "he
looks upon the general lack of know-
ledge of air currents as the most seri-
ous present obstacle to immediate
commercial axlation on a large scale
in this country.

Europe‘s vaunted superiority over
the L'nited States in commercial avia-
tion is discounted by Mr. Meisinger.
who says that "every day United
States mail planes are flying over laps
of such length that the famous Eu-
ropean routes seem to diminish in im-
portance."

To "keep the eagle in the air." how-
ever.’ the confidence of the American
public must be maintained. according1
to Mr. Meieinger. He declares that
expert knowledge of air conditions
and plicmion of of the. “line whichl
may b obtained from this knowledge.
will reduce accidents. increase the
safety of flying and create public sup-
port of commercial aviation.

Through scientific study of the air.
commercial aviation can be given such
an impetus that America. will be su-
preme in this work. Mr. Meisinger
says. adding that European aviation
colupaniv. realize the value of the air
latter and have created departments
of aeronautical meteorology.

Un journeys westward. the air mail
service has found that generally an
altitude of one kilometer (about
3.300 feet) results in the most speed.
tlze winds being most favorable there.
Uu the return journeys. however. three
I‘llulllvtcrs has been found to be the
most unorablc altitude. 'the winds
varying at different heights.

‘y thing at tin kilometer altitude.

planes could trawl from \‘cw York to
Omaha at an 1n l‘lgt of 3 hours and,
40 minutes less then similar plant-.3
could make at three kilometers. ac-
cording to the figures cited by Mr.

Meisingcr. all being on the basis of a
plane which had a. still air speed of
100 miles and hour.

One hour and 58 minutes of this
sa\.‘-g is made on the Chloagb- -Omahn.
ltg 4510' miles; 54 minute. on the lap
from New York to Cleveland £19
mile-s; and 48 minutes from Cleveland
to Chicago. 320 miles. In returning
from Omaha to New York. a plane
flying at .111 altitude of three kilome-
_t(rs mould make the trip in 1 hour
and 41 minut'ea less on the average
than one living at one kilometer high.
according to Mr. Meisingern res.

On the New" York to \Vashinstou
mall trip. about 200 miles it has been
found that. while a 100 mile an hour
plane could fly to Washington in 2.
hours and 48 minutes at one kilomet-
er. it would take 3 hours at two or
three kilometers. Coming back to
New York. it would make little dif-
ference what altitude the plane took.
the time at one kilometer being 1 hour
and 36 mlputea and one hour and 34
minutes at two and three kilometers.

On the Chicago to St. Louis trip.
an altitude of 1 kilometer would
'muke the trip 28 minutes faster than
if flown at 2 kilometers, while colu-
lng back 3 kilometers would be the
best altitude.

A plane flying one kilometer high
from Ctlcago to the Twin Cities. Min-
ne’apolis and St. Paul. would be 1 hour
faster than a plane at three kilorneters .
and coming back the plane at three
kilometers would save thirty minutes
in the journey. l

011 the Chicago to Indianapolis trip. ;
there would be little choice of'alti-
tudcs going to Indianapolis but com-
ing back the aviator flying at one»
kilometer would be favored n5!” winds
which would enable. him to make the
journey 34 minutes quicker than 'if
flying at three kilometers. !

lagers paper are axera compiled
