I THE DAILY TIDINGS EDITORIAL ........ , C. J. READ, ASHLAND D A IL Y T ID IN G S O U T History Repeats Itself At a peace conference in York, England, the other day a delegate named S ir Hugh Trenchard told his colleagues that he was in favor o f entirely obliterating all aviation 'both civil and m ilitary, because of the harm that m ight be done by flying. H istory repeats itself. Old John Gutenberg should have been there to put his cards on the table and explain that 500 y e a n ago he listened to a similar argum ent Old John m ight point ca t if he coal'd that to d a y there are hundreds of thousands o f printing p r e sse s.in daily operation, newsboys with heavy armloads of newspapers crying their wares on thousands of street com ers, that since his time and because o f the idea bom of his brain thousands o f tremendous printed libraries have been built up, and hundreds o f thousands of books, pamphlets and m agazines are printed every hour. This B ritisher’s argument fo r the abolishment of aviation would have been a twice-told tale indeed to sturdy old John. It would have carried him hack in amusing memory to that day when he had finished his first printing press after years o f labor, and when the “ good voices” spoke to him and argued him into gnashing it with a hammer “ because o f the harm that m ight be done by printing,” by so widely dissem inating to everybody both the truths and the falsehoods o f the falsehoods o f the ________ Z ; ....~ world. , John would remember, however, th at although he did smash his printing press w ith his hammer, his idea was more malleable, and could not be broken. The pointing press was bom in his mind and his imagination, and of his efforts, and once bora would live forever in spite of hammers, how- ■ ever destructively directed. • John could tell this English pacifist a good many things. He could tell him that m en’s ideas are immortal and cannot die, and he could assure him that men w ill be flyin g 500 years from now, or 5000 years from now, just a s there is and w ill be printing in spite o f the “ good vo ices.” Aviation, like printing, is here to stay, for good or eviL E ither one m ay be good or bad, or both, as they are directed. Printing has been sometimes bad, perhaps, because it proved w ings for false­ hood, but it also proved w ings for truth, and truth Burely needed w ings when John Gutenberg made his first printing press. The program w ith aviation is not whether to keep it, bnt how to use it well.
