Garrett P. Serviss. :..
Big Business.
One-Fourteenth of a
Second.
Jailed at Six.
(Copyright by King Features
Syndicate, inc.)
Professor Garrett P. Serviss,
who died Saturday, was a noble
and useful man, by his scien
tific writings known to mil
lions. He turned the thoughts
of readers away from this small
earth and its petty strivings, to
the outside universe and its
grandeur. ' '
lie had chosen nil science(for
his field of study. Hut ever
returned to astronomy, and,
possessing the faculty of mak
ing abstract truth clear and ac
ceptable to the average mind,'
hcwas a most valuable edu
cator. He never thought of money,
i never eared for it,. earned just
i enough to provide for his fiim-
i ily and continue his work.
Professor Serviss' long life
j of constant industry has added
J to the knowledge, efficiency
'. and value of many minds. His
death means to millions the loss
of a valued friend anil teacher
Plying news is cheerful,
thanks to Big Business. If you
s want anything done in this
I country, pray for high finance
to say "It shall be done."
Alfred P. Sloan Jr., head of
!, General Motors, announces pur
,yf chase of a great plant for mak-
! ing airplane engines, His eoni-
I pany, of many billions, and
4 with engineers worth more than
I all the company's 'money, will
concentrato on production of
v . ., ... . .
v tno ultimate nirpianc engine.
:
'; That engine will conic 50,000
': years hence or. later, but right
i away Mr. Sloan will produce a
j better engine, Chnrles E.
i Jlltchell, who put tlie. National
v City Bank into aviation, has
purchased for United Aircraft,
- the company that makes the
; "Wasp and Hornet, air-cooled
engines, ius engineers are
1 working on better engines.,
i Henry Pord, first of all the
f great industrialists to nioko fly
' ing machines, lunched with the
President on Friday, and told
, Qiim he was at work on the bet
ter flying mouhino problem,
building engines in his own
: factory. It took some time, hut
this country is on the way to
lead in airplanes, as it does in
automobiles. Henry Ford is
not a believer in Diesel engines
i because of their weight.
e (ionium enginers believe they
will produce a better Diesel en
j giiie that, with fuel for 10,000
miles, will weigh less than the
gasoline engine, with eiilal fuel
"i supply. . .-,'.-"'
v .It is said that Diesel engines
5 will be used by the government
in' an all-metal dirigible, now
unrlcr construction.
'.. Henry Ford told the Presi
t dent fii at prohibition, absolute
ly enforced, is necessary, be
cause aviation on the proper
scale wouVI be impossible with
drunken pilots. How would it
1 be to lave pilots that keep so
ber' France will never have
prohibition, nor Britain, nor
(Jernuiny. But they fly, and
their pilots are not drunkards.
If a pilot ate seven pieces of
mince pie, with a Welsh rarebit
on each pie. he could not drive
properly. Hut Is It necossnry to
pass laws against mince pie?
Many of the ablest doclors In
the world tell llenry ford that he
would live and work longer If he
took light red wine, diluted with
water, instead of Ice water. Som
fimbably, have told htm he will
probably live to 100 anyhow, fjr
he Is always thinking. Men and
trees die at the top.
