Back in the days when flying was still in Its .waddling clothes, we went out to an airport and saw lex do ing awe-inspiring stunts in a plane that would be consid ered a relic today. We saw him pick up some object with wing tip, and we saw him fly upside down near the earth. , xesiuruny, wiii across a lawn, through a crowd, and into a garden where a plane lay on its back, v - stopped in amazement v.len some one told us that :..re lav the body of Tex Mjukin. There, too, lay the remains of two in en we knew well Cy Wallan and Jack Elie. "f was a moment before we could go on about the grim business of gathering news that we had to pinch ourselves to believe. Tex Rankin was a great flier, who did much to make people aviation-conscious and to build their confidence In flying. It was ironical that his death should come on an orthodox take-off from a modern field on a weather-perfect day he who had taken thousands of what seemed like more hazardous chances than that. The incident serves to emphasize the pro gram now being undertaken to improve flying safety. This program has been prompted by a scries of aviation tragedies, which have accom panied the upswing of civilian flying volume after the war. The American people, thrilled by the potentialities of aviation, will accept it even more rapidly as steps are taken, by both authorities and by flying people themselves, to take every possible precaution against mishap. Flight Plans ONE thing fliers can do, and which they ap pear to neglect at present, is to file flight plans. We have seen many searches fumble in the dark because the man sought failed to notify the authorities of the route he intended to take. Filing of flight plans is not required, but certainly advisable, when fliers undertake trips of any length. There are stories in the papers almost every day that refute that certain feel ing that "it can't happen to me." If it does happen, the flight plan will help searchers and will increase the chances of the flier's rescue. It can save a lot of time, money, and danger to other fliers, in the search. News Behind The News Br PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, Feb. 24 The unions' social ist government of Britain has been trying in many ways to escape responsibility for the fuel famine of its sreat coal Droducing nation. It blames the weather which has been abnormal ly snowy and icy, preventing the railroads from functioning for a brief period. Its union of mine workers, however, has looked beyond the weather for a cause to explain the anomaly of a coal nation being unable to keep itself warm and its men at work. The union, in a meeting, has formally blamed the former bosses of the mines, the owners from whom the government seized the properties. That kind of excuse might do well enough for last winter or earlier winters when the former owners ran the properties. But now the government has taken over. So natur ally not only the conservatives, like Mr. Chur chill, but the frozen man in the street are both inclined to blame the current owners, to charge the labor government not only with lack of fore sight in failing to build proper stocks at im- . portant centers, but with utter failure to do its coal producing job. y In such a political melee, the reports from STATIC Br KELLY ROBERTS We are rapidly becoming a thoroughly domesticated specie of homo sapiens.

ABC Night News Summary Sign Off Britain seem to avoid a genuine objective ex planation of the astonishing failure. Not a word can I find anywhere tracing the actual produc tion of the mines since the government started preparing to take them over. The London Times publishes some figures which may shed a slight ray of light on this avoided basic matter. It says the daily average of loadings in period at the height of the bad weather crises was 44,000 tons from certain key producing dis tricts as compared with 46,000 tons average for 12 weeks in the fall. So in the stress of aroused national pressure, the shipments can be consid ered to be 2000 tons a day less than in a normal pre-crisis peroid. Under utmost acceleration, the government is still not loading as much coal as it was when it was coasting along in the fall, and blindly laying the groundwork for just such a crisis as has occurred. The government, it is clear, was not producing enough coal then or now. Unofficial Strike PERHAPS the truthful reason for this failure lies in some significant news items, which did not even appear in this country, and were buried in the British press before the bad weather accentuated a deteriorating coal pro ducing situation. In January, the Yorkshire main colliery (employing 3000 men) was shut down by an unofficial strike called by the min ers because some men had been transferred from one part of the colliery to another no greater reason than that. Simultaneously 1100 men struck at the Sherburn Hill colliery in a wage dispute, cutting production 1000 tons a day. On the very same single day which I picked at random in a British newspaper, 1200 miners at Tredegar collieries were being urged not to strike the following Monday by the gov ernment's regional coal board. These facts do not comprise an ex post facto excuse for political propaganda purposes, but indisputable evidence as to the real reason why Britain has suffered. The facts are not illogical or surprising. Genuine objective economists have long contend ed that democratic socialism could not produce enough to sustain itself. Churchill, in his un successful election campaign last fall, said the union socialist government would have to en slave the workers, and the nation before it could require its own followers to produce enough to sustain the country. The unions laughed at the great wartime prime minister for such a suggestion. Yet now the socialists are proving his point, -not only in coal, which is a basic British product, but in overseas trade, which has been called the British life line. Exports of the United Kingdom last year were only 70 per cent in volume what they were in 1938, although the financial value was one and a half times greater than 1938. Further To Left THE king has gone to South Africa, where ('tis said), the British Empire owns sufficient raw materials to make itself a wealthy world power and commonwealth. The king will find the South African wealth is, like British coal, still in the ground. Britain itself may have great natural wealth of raw material in the ground at home, but, having destroyed private initiative, which was generated by the profits system, cannot find means through socialism to extricate itself from a poverty in coal. Some observers say Britain will try now to save itself from its socialist predicament by go ing further to the left. A government of the unions will next enslave its own union workers, they say; rob the people of their liberty, outlaw strikes and make the miners work thus taking the stupid unnatural way out, which Hitler and Stalin took. . ... , I do not think this is' possible. People can not possibly be so stupid as to stick their heads further into the noose of a system, which can not produce anything, cannot make its own people work, is utterly lost itself. Rather I be lieve that man learns best by experience, and out of the current lesson the British will learn they cannot operate without a profit initiative Why not even communism was crazy enough to go further to the left when its socialistic efforts failed in Russia ten or more years ago. Instead it restored the profits initiative to the small farmers and, dealers it restored a part of cap italism. The reason Russia has not succeeded in producing anything superior in its big in dustries is that it did not restore capitalism to them. car and reach the plane just in time. As they leave, Hale reaches into a jacket pocket, pulls forth a bunch of keys and in an innocent voice queries, "I wonder where I got these?" Sure enough, they were Mac's.

Veterans May Repay Without Hardship Veterans who received over payment of subsistence allow ances will be able to repay the government without undue hard ship, the veterans administration announces. Instructions to that effect have been sent to all VA field offices. In addition, any veteran whose subsistence allowance has been suspended to balance prior overpayments, and who can show resultant hardship, may apply for readjustment at his VA regional office. The overpayments resulted from wage ceilings for veteran trainees established by the last congress and which provided that combined earnings and sub sistence could not exceed $200 for married veterans, $165 for single veterans. Each trainee is required to report earnings every three months to the VA. Veterans who received over payment of subsistence were warned, however, that they would be required to remit all such amounts to the government. Question of the Week Q.

American imrt Urltish military forces struck suddenly in tholr zones against widespread nazl underground movement. They arrested some hundreds of plot ters, including a number of high ranking officers in the llltlorliin SS (elite guard) organization the fuehrer's crack blackguards. British officials said the move ment had ramlficutlonR in the Soviet and French zones and that its aims included restoration of German militarism and nazl dictatorship "in order to lead the nations of Eiiropo against Russia." Tho plotters claimed to have secret bacte riological weapon to use against the occupying powers. POTENTIALITIES Of course this isn't tho first timo tne allies have encountered the nuzi rriinkeiislein ji mounter since the occupation, but Sun duy's drive was the biggest thus fur made ugainst thu under ground, indications are thut we needn't be unduly concerned over tho current situutlo:i, es pecially since the Anglo-Amcrl-cull team i on the alert and both headquarters have Indicat ed thut they don't consider the movement particularly duugcr ous. However, what we do have to worry about is potentialities about the fuel that militarism still lives in the relch. To be sure, as U. S. authorities In Ber lin point out, "as long as we are able to maintain our army in Cermuny, detection and sup pression of future subversive movements can be made before they become dangerous." Still, control of the situation Is con tingent on maintenance of an adequate allied military force there, and as signs now read, it will bo many years before our troops can be withdrawn from the fatherland. REEDUCATION The consensus of Impartial ob servers in that military occupa tion must continue until the German population has been re educated in democratic ways and that will be a long and ardu ous job. When 1 toured Ger many last year I reported in this column that the toughest section of the population to edu cate was thut between the ages of 14 and 33. This all-important group, rep resenting the youth of the coun try, was so thoroughly llitlcrlzcd that many allied experts be lieved it never could be won over. In short, the educational program would In the main be effective only among the very young. Consequently it would take a generation or so to re mould German opinion if it could be done at all.
