A sensible person would say that they are a small thing to die tor. . liut there are men to whom nothing is too small to die for, if a little private mutter ot honor is involved; and it is pre cisely such men who persuade us, in the end, that the human race is worth preserving, in this world and the next one. This young aviator, it seems, was one of them. In Washington Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: therefore love-is the fulfilling of the law. Romans 13: 10. HONOR ABOVE LIFE Among the army pilots to die on the airmail routes was Lieut. Dunvard 0. Lowry of Ann Arlor, Mich. The story of this young officer's death is something that all Americans profitably might read. It is a tragic tale, but it has the up lifting, heartening quality that only great stories possess. Lieut. Lowry was flying the mail from Chicago to Cleve land when he ran into a blinding snowstorm near the town of Deshler, O. Lost and unable to find a landing place he crashed and was killed. But read a newspaper article about the way in which he died: "Pilot Lowry, flying alone In the snowstorm on an unfamiliar route, know that a crash was Inevitable, according to the mute testimony of Back after sack of matt which he had tossed from the cockpit to prevent Its destruction in case of fire. "He kept at this task too long and In death had lived up to the best traditions of the alrniHll service, which demand that the malt be saved. The bags were found Intact along the countryside." ' That's all there is to it but somehow those two para graphs speak volumes alout the kind of man that this young army aviator was.

They have been able to find out exactly nothing about It. There have been few things under the New Deal which provoked so much discussion or were so widely publicized at the time of creation as this fund. It figured In the headlines for weeks. Then almost overnight It dropped out of the picture. Newspapers turn ed to other things. It ceased to bo a topic of conversation. No questions were asked about It at press confer ences. When will It be put to use? Has It been already? What's to be done witli those billions of dollars? Only the president and his secre tary of the treasury can answer those question and they won't. About the only thing known about the fund Is that the ndmlnistton still regards It as a powerful weapon Its ace In the hole. , (.elll up Into Print One of the most successful mem bers of congress from the standpoint of personal publicity Is Indiana's woman member of the house, Mrs. Virginia Ellis Jenckcs.

Coincident with the plans for tlie demobilization of civil works has been the development of u program to meet the peculiar needs of three separate and distinct groups in need through no fault of their own. - The three classes Include distressed families in rural areas; those composing 'stranded popula tions," L e. those living In single industry communities In which there is no hope of further re-employment; and the unemployed in large cities. ; t "Relief funds will be expended on behalf of rural families In a manner and to the extent to enable them to achieve sell-support. Work for wageB from relief funds Is noli an essential part of tills phase of the program and will bo provided only insofar as it is necessary to accomplish the primary objective of making them self-supporting," Mr. Carlson said. It Is pointed oul that only a care ful survey can determine the num ber, of families Included In "stranded populations," but there Is sufficient data already collected to Indicate a situation of substantial proportions, he said. Mr. Carlson and Wr. White are meeting with various Eastern Ore gon cities represented tills afternoon and it is expected that specific pro gram will soon be worked out.
