COTTON FACTORS
•6
A Washington correspondent
cays “President Coolfdge will keep
out of the Mitchell fight,” refer
ring to Colonel Mitchell’s charges
as to general incompetency in the '
management of United States air
forces and the suggestion that Col
onel Mitchell, lowered in rink for
telling the truth once, should now • f"
be arrested for telling the truth
twice. • . f
How could the President, who is
head of the Army and Navy, keep
out of the Mitchell matter? It is
not conceivable that his subordi
nates, knowing of the President’s
readiness to hear both sides of any
question, would undertake any ac
tion without his approval.
The most disquieting ihipg in
our so-called defense programme
is this statement attributed to
Judge Wilbur, Secretary of the
Navy:
“In view of the experience of the
navy planes in the Arctic expedi
tion, the failure of the Hawaiinn
flight and the Shenandoah dis
aster, we have come to the con
clusion that the Atlantic and the
Paciflc are still our best defenses.
“We have nothing to fear froas
enemy aircraft that ia not on this
continent."
The experience in the Arctic,
the failure of the Hawaiian flight,
the dreadful Shenandoah diaMter
had nothing to do with capable
air navigation, but a great deal to
do with incompetent management
of our air force.
We should have, indeed, nothing
to fear from foreign aircraft if we
could give to foreigners such
management as our aircraft has.
Mr. Wilbur’s statement that our
oceans are our best defense sounds
like the statement of some ostrich
Maying, “1 have .nothing to fear,
the sand is my best defense. I
can stick my head into it.”
It is suggested that railroads be
forced to combine in great trans
portation units, and that they
make their own selections “rather
than have the Government do the
choosing for them.”
Why not have a selection of
well-inforfned men, railroad irten of
course, acquainted with traffic con
ditions, make a survey of rail
roads, ami let the Government
know which combination should
be made in the interest of econ
omy and of efficiency?
President Coolidge will certainly
not think it wise to leave these
combinations to selfish interests
bfisod on opportunities for stock
jobbing, combining broken down
roads with good roads for the
sake of immediate profit, rather
than more efficiency. Perhaps
for the sake of unloading unprofit
able railroads on the stockholders
that own profitable railroads.
Pauperism is dying out in the
United States thanks to better
wages, widows’ pensions, more en
lightened medical care, and espe
cially campaigns of health adver
tising, carried on l*y the great life
insurance companies. -
Of 100,000 in our population,
only 71.5 are in poorhouses now.
And that is exactly 71.6 too many.
In 1914 there were 91.5 out of.
100,000 in the poorhouses. Things
have improved since the war
forced up wages.

The people do not believe that
the President will permit any ac
tion against Colonel Mitchell until
the entire aviation queetion shall
have been folly thrashed out, in
cluding the fiasco in the effort
to fly to Hawaii, and the catas
trophe of the Shenaridoahl
It is to be hoped that the in
quiry when it comes, will not be
a whitewashing enterprise, but a
real investigation.
The President will ajant to know
why the protest of Commander
Lansdowne, an experienced airman
who had flown across the Atlantic
in a dirigible, was ignored. The
President will not want any white
washing or any offhand suppres
sion of Colonel Mitchell, who isn’t
easily suppressed, by the way. He
will want the facts, and will see
that he gets them.
