COMM i:llTIONS. Ctimmendatlons havo com to us from ninny quarters Minn the Hky Pi lot's Forum opened two weeks ago. , The fine reeeptlon whleh the column has been given is encouraging. As we (staled formerly, we believe this: col junin will find Its place in the thought j of the cot'.iiuunity. Its purpose is to give expression to the mind, of Chris tian leadership, and brief bits of news and comment which seldom otherwise finds its way into the dally news columns. Wlutt of the. Pivaclicr? ! No man has harder people to serve than the minister of the gospel. His critics are many, and the criticisms varied. The preacher has a great time. If his hair Is gray, he is old. If he is a young man, he hasn't had the l experience. If he has ten children, he has too many; ff he has none, he Isn't a good example. If his wife sings in the choir, she is presuming; if she doesn't, she Isn't interested in Iter husband's work. If a preacher reads from notes he is a bore; if he speaks extemporaneously, he isn't deep enough. If he stays at home in his study he doesn't mix with the people; if he is seen around the streets he ought to be at home getting up a good sermon. Jf he calls on some poor family, he is playing to the grand stand; if he calls at the home of the wealthy, he is an aristocrat. Whale ever he does, some one could have told him to do better. E. J.

Prohibition a Great Kuccra. In spite of the bootlegger, prohibi tion N a great success. It Is probable that the consumption, of alcoholic liquor Is not more than one-twentieth of what It was In pre-prohlbltlon days. And this In spite of a host of wet of ficers, the money of the liquor Inter ests, and the enforcement head, An drew W. Mellon, being a confirmed and thorough going wet with his own money tied up in the whiskey busi ness. Prohibition has raised the moral lone of the nation. It saved us from the rinaneial crisis which afflicted every other country after the war. It has made good wages, good roads, good homes and a nation wide con tentment, possible. It has been re sponsible for the great expansion of the automobile Industry and the home building movement which, is tit ill go ing strong. , It. ". NELSON. Phoenix. ' Hilly Sunday In Portland. Re fore the first week of the Port land meeting was concluded, the lillly Sunday campaign look on immense proportions. The great tabernacle was parked and the evangelistic or ganization beKlnulng its effective work. It has continued thus since the beginning. While he applied himself ns vigorously as ever, we found that hit voice was somen lint affected liy his constant use of it, but ii seems not to affect his crowds. Contrary to scattered Inferences here and there. Hilly Sunday did not come to Portland on any kind of fi nancial guarantee. Me is there to give his best licks and all the pawer of grace and energy within him on the same basis of the nvernge evangelist. He Is to receive the free will offering of the people at the close, and no more. That offering will bo the measure of esteem in which he is held by those who hear him. The Port- We do not know the ripples of heal ing that are set In motion, when we simply smile on each other. Henry Drummond. Judge C W. Pomeroy of the elev enth judicial district in Montana has for years made it a practice to have a minister of the gospel open court each morning with prayer. He states that it gives a tone and morale to the court and proceedings that nothing else can. The effect on witnesses and the jury is quite marked. Judge Pom eroy Is not alone In this! howeyer, as some judges throughout the nation follow the samo practice. A man isn't always useful and Im portant because he has a rolltop desk. So much depends on whether he keeps his mind on It, or his feet. Tluit ProlUbitlon Import. That the Federal Council of Churches of Christ, through its re search commission, has placed the subject of prohibition enforcement well before the nation Is quite evi dent. Concerning that report the Ore gonlan takes broadside issue with sev eral misrepresents) I ve constructions which would be friends have given to it. The Oregon inn says that it is the most remarkable, unbiased, fair. In clusive and unprejudiced report to come from an otherwise partisan body for generations. World Villi y Conference.

The formal call was issued recently by the joint commission of the world conference on faith and order, of which Bishop Willinm T. Manning of New York Is president. It is expected that prac tically every Christian denomination on earth will be represented except the Roman Catholic church.

Creation of a bureau of aviation and Improvement of inland waterways are the two problems for the comini; ses sion of conRress. secretary 1 louver of the department of commerce said here last niKht. The United Platen would have n complete nlr transportation system within a year if the Rovernment pro vided lighted airways, landing fields nnd aviation regulations. Hoover de clared. "In effect this would be snbsldlz Inn aviation," he continued, "as it Is done In Kurope where the govern ments pay out large sums to the com panies operating uir lines. In return, the federal t!"Vornment would gain Important military nil vantages. A skilled nrmy of pilots would be avail able nlways In time of war ami to some extent the commercial planes would be valuable. Most of all n sub sidized airplane Industry would cre ate a manufacturing capacity which In time of war would he invaluable." Hoover predicted that the trans continental air mall system would be taken out of the hands of the poslnf flce department within a year nnd that the routes would lie h'nsed to prl ivate corporations. "This already Is being done with the feeder lines to the trans-continental routes." the secretary said, "and there are four very strong organiza tions backed by wealthy men, ready nt (nny time to take over the contracts for the tranH-contlnental limit system."
