" " 'France is coing in strong for governmental insurance. It
is going to raise $200,000,000 a year, eventually muking n
?4,000,000;000,000 fund, from, which; -i the government ' will
pay death benefits, old age pensions, disability payments and
medical bills for about half the people of France. The money
will be raised mainly4 by forced collection of 10, per cent of
WorkeiK wages. This plan is adopted by a government call
ed, "consei'vative." Conservatism in Europe is radicalism in
America. Europe needs such paternalism more than the New
World.. But such a sidelight shows how really copseivfttive
this country is. ',.; ;;."":'
.'.This country is air-minded. The response to Lind
bergh's offer to take congress flying showedthat. Congress
men are usually cautious, but they took to it like wild geese.
Still moi;e is it shown by conditions around the country. Air
ports are being opened everywhere. Phoenix, Ariz., has three
of them.' Chicago has a dozen. Memphis has an island air
port " a hundred yards from the main post office." Portland,
Ore., has one of the finest nirports in the world. So has
Cleveland. And how those airpoi-ta are used! "Tex" Rankin,
runs a flying school and air service at Portland, with ner.rly
300 students, and is selling nirplanen as fast as many a good
automobile 'dmtlor sells cars. In Cleveland, on a fair Sunday,
25,000 (o 60,000 people turn out, and visit the nii-port as if
it wore a public park. Every small town will have ond be
fore long.
... : . MACHINERY. AND MIRACLES ' ;.
'. Just what is a miracle, anyway? Where is the boundary
hue letwceii a maivel of science and n genuine accomplish
ment of the actually impossible? '
The border would be hard to define. We have had so
many startling scientific developments in the last few years
that any rule we might lay down now would be sure to 1m
outmoded in a couple of decades.
Here is one to think over for a while.
The other day, in Chicago, Miss Vilma Hanky, movie
actress, posed before a movie camera. An hour later the
film, doveloped and ready for use, was in the Chicago office
of the American Telephone and Telegraph company, being
sent to' New York by telephoto. Within a short time the
entire film had been telephotoed, and a little later it was be
ing put on the screen in a New York theater.
.'. ..We. take that sort of thing, in our .stride, .without, .getting
very excited about it; yet only 30 years ago the whole pro
cedure would have been utterly beyond the bounds of rea
son. If you hnij told anyone, 80 yearsjigo, that people could
sit in a New York theater and watch the actions of a girl who
was in Chicago, you would have been adjudged iires-ponsible.
The moving picture, by itself, is miraculous enough. Join
it to the telephoto process and you double the marvel. Then,
if you want to complete the wonder, toss in a .segment of the
new talking movie.
Consider it a minute. Caruso has been dead for years.
Yot today you can sit down in your living room and hear his
voice, as clear and magic as it ever was. Valentino died
nearly three years ago; yet theater audiences today are
watching his form on the silver sheet, as full of life and
youth and activity as if he were alive.
Now and then you hear people say that this mechanical
age of ours is making people materialistic. It is not; or at
least, it should not. We ourselves, for all our finite limita
tions, perform miracles; we hear the voices of the dead, sec
their Ixidies move and act. project their images across a
thousand miles of space. Why should we doubt that there
are other wonders that we have not yet touched? Why can
not wo realize that the world is packed with mysteries and
wonders of which human life is the greatest of all?
