Twenty-eighth Year No. 120. Comment on the Day's News By IBANK JENKINS. MAURICE ROSSI and Paul Cados, French aviators, leave New York on Saturday morning. Fllty-aeven houra later they land at, Ryak, lu Syria, after having been In the air 57 hour:. During tiua time they covered a distance of 6900 miles, which la far ther than any aviator ever flew be fore without landing. Thua another world record goea up on the big board. FIFTY-SEVEN houra la a trifle leas than two daya and i half, and In thle time these Frenchmen cover ap proilmately 6000 mllea. It took the Oregon pioneers. In their ox wagons, from four to aix months to cover two thousand miles. The world Is speeding up, Isn't It? FIFTY-NINE hundred miles In bl hours. That la a little better than 100 miles an hour, which, aa a sustained average, Is pretty high, even for an airplane. Stllli you have read that the rali roodB are bringing out trains that will do better than 100 mllea an hour. ' The alrplane'a record for high speed isn't to be permitted to go unchal lenged. SPEED I What" a'maula we have for It In these modern days. We want to GO FAST. Why? Well, that Is hard to say. Many a motorist will drive like mad all day, to save an hour, and after reaching his destlnstlon will wsste TWO hours without thinking of it. He wasn't driving fast merely to save time. . What he wanted was SPEED. THIS plea la broadcast from Wash ington by General Johnson, ad ministrator of the national recovery act: "Buy because buying supports your Job." True enough. But most of us will buy Just as rapidly aa we get money In our pockets to buy with. We need no urging In that dlreo tlon. rEOPLE In this modern day are I urged to buy. because buying makes business good and when busi ness Is good Jobs are plentiful. In an earlier day people were urged to SAVE to lay something by for a rainy day. Times change, don't they? rnoo much buying bankrupt the 1 buyer. Too much ssvtng slows down business. Here, as elsewhere, the Ideal lies somewhere In between the" extremes. IT TS true thalT buying makes busi ness, and too much saving hurts business. But, if you are wise, you will lay by A LITTLE as you go along, putting something by for a rainy day. REASONABLE thrift doesn't hurt business. " - LUMBER production of Oregon and Washington, combined, In 1833 amounted to 3,887,826,000 feet, ac cording to figures Just given out by the forest service.- This was 41 per cent below 1931 production, 58 per cent below that of 1930 and 68 per cent below that of 1929. Lumber has certainly suffered loss of markets along with the other great Industries. It Is a little encouraging to us out here In the lumber coun- v try. however, to note from the sta tlstlcs that lumber has suffered no more than steel. OF THE 1933 cut of 3.867.826.000 feet. Washington produced 2. 260.893.000 feet and Oregon 1.606, 934,000 feet. Washington, that Is to say, produced approximately 40 per cent more lumber than Oregon last year. Washington alwaya has produced more lumber than Oregon, but the time is coming when It will not. The time Is not far distant when Oregon will be the big lumber atate.
