THE SENATOR SAYS By State Senator Robert IMcClory The 70th Illinois General Assembly has passed a deficiency appropriation for public assistance of more than $30,000,000. This is the amount by which the Public Aid commission underestimated the expense to the state of all forms of public charity. The deficiency bill was passed as an emergency measure in order to avoid any lapse of payments to the recipients. A number of startling facts was brought out in the hearings before the State Senate. Among these facts are the following: 1. The public assistance programs in Illinbis cost in excess of $150,000,000 per year. 2. The state relief load is increasing every year despite general prosperity and low unemployment. 3. The state relief load is increasing every year despite general prosperity and low unemployment. 3. Rules of the Public Aid commission permit a party to receive unemployment compensation and also general assistance. 4. Approximately 50 per cent of all "Aid to» Dependent . Children" goes to .support illegitimate children. 5. Local relief rolls are being reduced while the state relief program continues to enlarge. 6. Most of the state, relief programs employ "matching" funds from the , federal government, which encourages ^ switch-ffrom local programs of renef to'^31 ate programs. The fallacy of federal "matching" is nowhere more glaringly demonstrated than in th£ public assistance programs. At the state level, we have been induced to appropriate funds in order to secure a "gift" of matching funds from the federal treasury. Yielding to the temptation of "free" federal funds, the state and federal governments have usurped the fiction of local relief. We have been swept into a great fe^eralrst^te program of credit - to - the - grave care, at the expense of the taxpayer and at the sacrifice of local self-government and local self-sufficiency. V In public assistanc^ mora thfln any other field, a"reversal of/the trend away from local responsibility and control is essential.

' The "History of Flight" and man's various attempts to conquer the air, from the earliest days of civilization right up -to the present, are told in a new exhibit opened last Friday at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry. Prepared by the Civil Aeronautics administration of the U. S. Department of Commerce and including several three-dimensional displays all 'dramatically historical in character, the new exhibit gives visitors to'the Muesum the-feeling of almost being "on the scene" spectators at some of the most vital morneVits" in the development of aviation. The first three Stages of the display date far back into antiquity. One recounts 1 the efforts of the ancient Babylonians to soar into the skies. Another portrays the "flying chariot" the Emperor Chun of '(Shina brought forth about 2200 B.C. And the third goes back ihto Greek mythology to visualiz!# the fabled attempt of Icarus and his father, Daedalus, to use man-made wings of feathers affixed to their bodies by wax, to escape over the seas from the wrath of King Minos of Crete, a flight that ended fatally for Icarus when the hot sun melted tfye wax and he /was plunged into the^tej^'!b&6ty. TTte section covering modern aviation starts with the various forms of Sky craft suggested by Lponardp da Vinci as far back as 1490. ;Next to be highlighted is the ! first human flight made by balloon, flight is also shown. Two European airplane proponents o| more than a century ago, who sjjught ways to assure powered flight'Come nejtt in the display/ One of them, William Henson, an Englishman, made history in 1842 with his "Ariel," a flying carriage that he proposed to power by steam. Tlie othet* was Alphonse Penaud, a French inventor, who as early as 1850, anticipated such airplane developments as retractable landing gear, all metal adjustable props, and, automatic pilots. Two special sections of the exhibit are given over to history of gliders and helicopters. Professor John Jl Montgomery of Santa Clara college in California is shown to have been the first successful glider proponent in 1883. The helicopter credited with the fijjst .eifcouraging tryout is the ^rli^ferS"egg-beater," which rose l!l feet the ground when given its initial test for the U. S. Army at College Park, Maryland, on July 16, 1922. - Among the earlier aviation luminaries featured are Louis Bleriot, hero in 1909 of the flight across the English Channel; Santos Dumont, who made the first recorded airplane flight in Europe in i906; Gianni Caproni, producer of the world's first war plane; Glenn Martin, father of American military aviation; Richard Bird, participant in both the first flights over the North and South Poles; and the four man American Army squadron that flew 26,345 miles in 1924 on the first complete flight around the globe. Most colorful units in the exhibit are four Jarge dioramas that feature what are probably the most commonly known achievements in American civilian aviation. One entitled, "The Miracle at Kitty Hawk," depicts the first flight jof the Wright brothers on December 17, 1903- The second reproduces the scene at San Diego in 1911 when Glenn Curtiss unveiled his "Flying s Fish," the | world's first successful hydroplane. The third shows Jack Knight makihg the first official air-mail flight by night, a feat that required ten hours of flyftig between North Platte, Nebraska and Chicago, with bonfires lit along the way to keep-him on his course. And the last shows Lindbergh and his Spirit of St. Louis midway over the Atlantic on his epochal aerial jump to Paris.
