SIR THOMAS LIPTON, a great mer
chant and a famous sportsman,
dies at the age of 80. It was the
wealth won as a tea merchant that
enabled htm to win fame as a sports
man, .
Love of sport kept him keen and
active and full of Interest In life up
to the very end. , ,
So sport was a fine thing for Sir
Thomas.
HpHOMAS A. EDISON, well past 80,
even more famous than Sir
Thomas Lipton has won his fame
entirely by hard work, sport never
having appealed to him probably
because he has never bad time for It.
HARD WORK kept Edison keen and
active and full of interest In life up
to the moment of his collapse In
August. Even grave Illness has not
caused him to lose Interest In what
Is going on around him.
So hard work has been a good thing
for Edison.
WERE Is the lesson to be drawn
from the lives of these men:
If you want to be somebody. If you
want to amount to something, If you
want to stay young In mind long
after you grow old In years, BE IN
TERESTED In something, so keenly
Interested that you will welcome each
new day because of the opportunity
It gives you accomplish ' something
more along your chosen line of Inter
est. .
That la about as good a recipe for
success as any.
T IE ART failure wasthe cause of Sir
Thomas Upton's death, and If
you are not Interested In statistics It
may surprise you to learn that heart
failure LEADS ALL OTHER causes of
death.
In reality, there Is nothing surpris
ing about It, because when the heart,
weakened by strain or overwork, ' or
any other cause, ceases to beat, death
MUST follow.
HE Interesting thing about It la
That the doctors tell us that the
menace of heart failure can be re
duced by right living. If you will
avoid the strains tbat weaken the
heart, your chance of living to a ripe
old age will be greatly Increased.
QENATOR JOE BENNETT, of Mult-
nomah county, wants to restore
prosperity In Oregon by Issuing $50,
000,000 In bonds and loaning the
money at a low rate of Interest to
home owners and farmers.
Has he stopped to think that one
thing that la troubling home owners
and farmers la that they have AL
READY borrowed a lot of money that
now has to be paid back?
'TpHB city of Astoria tried to restore
prosperity by Issuing bonds, and
now, as you have read In this col
umn, Astoria's public debt amounts
to two-thirds of the assessed value
of all her property, and the problem
of PAYING OFF this debt la a grave
ly troublesome one,
JJACK In 1017, the people of Oregon
voted to Issue bonds to build a
great system of state highways, and
since that time we have paid some
thing like 8EVENTEEN MILLION
dollars In highway and bond Interest
alone, and are by no means through
paying yet
Remember that this $17,000,000
hasn't gone Into construction of act
ual roads. It Is merely the wages
of the money we borrowed, .
-
11TB ARE not complaining, because
" these highways have been worth
their cost, but we can't help realiz
ing NOW that if we had built more
roads out of current revenues as we
went along, and had used for actual
construction the money we have spent
for Interest, we might be better off
financially.
FOR more than a decade and a half,
the world has had the Idea that
the way to prosperity lies In borrow
ing and borrow! ng, without much
thought as to how the money bor
rowed was to be paid back.
This constant borrowing . cannot
merely In Oregon but all over the
world, la one of the reasons for the
present depression.
JT IS exceedingly easy to aay: "Re-
store prosperity by Issuing more
bonds, but In reality prosperity Is
much more apt to be restored by
PAYING OPT some of the bands that
have already been Issued and so eas
ing the burden that to the form of
taxation la bearing down on business
and making It harder to go ahead
with new enterprises that will PRO
VIDE JOBS for those who need jobs.

Pangborn and Herndon Ne
gotiate Landing Without
Under-carriage $25,000

The big red monoplane, flown by
Hugh Herndon, Jr., and Clyde Pang
born, who left Samushiro Beach, Ja
pan, Sunday for the United States,
circled jver Wenatchee field at 7:07
a. m. today.
The plane was 'without landing
gear. An ambulance was rushed to
the field In case there was an acci
dent when the plane came down.
They dumped their gas to prevent
fire.
The plane landed on her "belly"
and tipped over on her nose and then
settled back. She slid along slowly
In a cloud of dust. The plane came
to rest on Its left wing. Its pro
peller was smashed In the landing.
Aviators described It as a ."fish
tall" landing.
Pangborn, leaving the plane, said
"Boy, are we glad to, get1 here 1 Lots
of gas left when we landed.'
His mother, Mrs. Pangborn, was
crying as the men left the plane.
Herndon had a cut .over his left eye.
Pangborn said the only damage as
to the propeller.
Wonderful Landing.
Aviators here said It was a "won
derful landing." Tie fliers had drop
ped their landing gear after leaving
Japan to lighten the load.
Herndon's first words were: "Give
me a cigarette."
The representative of the Japanese
newspaper Asahl was standing by
with a $2fi.000 check for the. com
pletion of the first successful non
stop trans-Pacific .'light from Japan.
"Very glad to see you boys," he
said.
Both men had wool sox on both
feet, but no shoes. Pangborn said
they went nearly to Spokane but
turned around and came back.
They said they were over Seattle
but there was "plenty" fog there.
"We've been In Japan so long we're
still going barebfooted," Pangborn
said.
Fog Halts Flight.
They had 100 gallons of gas left.
They explained It was too foggy for
them to go to Salt Lake City.
"The reason we came back was be
cause we liice the capital," Pangborn
said, wenatchee Is the center of the
apple Industry In Washington.
Their route brought them over
Vancouver Island, they said. They
circled Mount Rainier three times
and passed over Seattle shortly after
3 a. m.
The crowd cheered when the plane
came down on the runway. The am
bulance and police cars followed.
41 Hours In Atr.
The Japanese newspaper represen
tative had been In Washington state
three months, waiting to present the
check to acme lucky non-stop trans
Pacific alrdmen.
The fliers landed at 7:14 a. m., P.
S. T.
It was the first non-stop west-to-east
crossing of the Pacific In the
history of aviation.
The fliers said they dropped their
landing gear shortly after their take
off. Iced Wings Worry
"We had good weather for' the first
1000 miles, then climbed 17,000 feet
trying to get over the clouds, hitting
real .heavy clouds at Dutch Harbor at
Daybreak yesterday." said Herndon.
"Ice began to form on the wings
as we climbed up and down but we
couldn't get out of It. The plane was
loggy but we flew on through It. We
flew three hours after we thought we
should have been over land on the
Alaskan west coast. '
"We got worried because we didn't
see land and thought something bad
gone wrong and tbat we were off our
course," Herndon continued. "As It
turned out, however, we were on a
straight course all the way."
A pair of bright orange pajamas
were loaned to Herndon by Ray

his sister, Mrs. D. U Mcllvalne said
she was Informed In a long dlstanc
telephone call from her niece.
NEW YORK, Oct. 8. (AP) Sena
tor Dwight W. Morrow died at 1:83
o'clock this afternoon of a cerebral
hemorrhage In his home .at Engle
wotv. N. J.
A brief announcement of Senator
Morrow's death was Issued from hla
office here merely giving the face
and place of his death, and saying
that hla passing was peaceful.
Senator Morrow's last publto ap
pearance was at a dinner here last
night of 1200 persons opening the
1931 emergency appeal of the federa
tion for the support of Jewish phi
lanthroplo societies.
Endorsing the drive In a snort
speech, Senator Morrow said he real
ized depleted lncomea would maksi
the campaign workera' task mora
difficult. t
Senator Morrow discussed th
complexities of modern life which
make It necessary for experts to ex
tend a helping had to unfortu
nates. Instead of offering personal
assistance.
When Calvin Coolldse. as a senior '
at Amherst college In 1805, voted fee
the man In class "most likely to suo
ceed," he picked Dwight Whitney
Morrow. Thirty-two years later h
then president of the United State
helped make hla prophecy come tru
by naming his claasmste as ambassa
dor to Mexico, a post which brought
Mr. Morrow an International reputa
tion and paved the wwy for bit elec
tion as United States senator from
New Jersey.
But previously the Coolldge esti
mate had been vindicated by Mr.
Morrow'a successful career, first In
law, then as a mem be. of the bank
ing firm of J. P. Morgan t Company,
and as an adviser to the Allied Marl
time Transport council In the World
war days of 1018. This lattar activity
lasted only 11 months, but It brought
him the distinguished service medal
of the United Statea and citations
from France, Italy and Greece. Gen
eral John J. Perahlng described Mr,
Morrow's work In connection with tit
military supply aspecta of the work
aa "exceptionally meritorious,"
Judgment which waa echoed by Gen
eral Charles O. Dawes.
Hoover Agrees.
And after Calvin Coolldge bad left
the White Rouse, President Hoover
confirmed the Judgment of his pre
decessor as to the Morrow talents and
capabilities, by naming the ambassa
dor as a member of tbe American
delegation to the five-power London
naval conference In 1030. There he
and General Dawss, the latter being
then ambassador to tbe Court of 8a,
James, specialised oi. the Franco
Italian naval problem and It waa said
that It was no fault of theirs that the
ultimate treaty. In the drafting of
which Mr. Morrow took a leading
part, did not becomt a five-power
pact Instead of being limited to the
United States, Great Britain and
Japan.
Delegate to Havana.
In 1038 he was one of the American
delegatea to the sixth Pan-American
congress, isld In Havana.
It was while he was a member oi
