He served several forms as slate
Senator from Fayette county and
was directly responsible for the
appropriation of funds by the
General Assembly for the erection
of Boyd hall. Senator Combs'
work in procuring funds for the
maintenance of the University of

Kentucky; and his wholehearted
support of this Institution have
made his memory imperishable to
to the students, faculty members,
and alumni of the University.
His death was not unexpected
as he had been confined to his
home on the Newtown pike since
1932, when he had a paralytic
stroke, but had carried on his
business from his home. He was
born in Breathitt county and received his early education in the
schools there and removed later
to Powell county where he engaged In business before coming
to Lexington in 1893 to assist his

father and brothers in the organization of the Combs Lumber
company. He was its first president and has continued in that
capacity until the present.
Senator Combs was Mayor of
Lexington for several years and
was President of the Swiss Oil
corporation which was one of the
pioneers In developing the Eastern Kentucky oil field. In addition to his services In behalf of
the University, Mr. Combs was a
leader in the civic life of the
community and the patron of
many charitable organizations.
His life of service to his fellow
men will be reverently remembered by generations to come,
when the names of Kentucky's
great are passed In review.

regular evening news broadcast told
pilots being
of two American
"grounded" in South America for
flying two airships of American
make which had been hastily remodeled as bombers for service in
the current war between Bolivia
and Paraguay.
The United States had refused
previously to allow the American
manufacturer to deliver the bomb
ers. A shrewd scheme on the part
of the manufacturer In converting
the warships Into commercial ones
got an approval of shipment from
the government. After they had
been flown by the two American
pilots out of United State territory, they were hastily equipped as
the bombers they once had been.
Government officials had watched
the maneuvers apparently, and de
manded the licenses of the pilots.
But they acted too late they closed
the stable door after the horse had
escaped. What Is to prevent the
American war profiteer from mak
ing his money? Can not several of
the pilots of the patron nation's
forces take the planes to the field
of action from such a close point
without harm from United States
protests?
The ensuing years will bring with
them far greater difficulties for the
government
in controlling ths
munitions racketeers under their
present preposterous status. If the
administrative officials continue to
conduct an embargo in such a hap
hazard and unintelligible fashion,
how can it hope to prevent the
United States from entering an
other war? We should regard our
selves as fortunate In having
chance to affect an embargo which,
after all, Is of experimental import
ance. Likewise, the blunder that has
been made should be considered a
blot upon the Intelligence and fore
sight of those responsible fur the
incident.

His purpose must be to develop,

not to indoctrinate.
4. He must have knowledge, not
only information.
5. He must be educated, he must
see his specialty in the light ol
knowledge as a whole. A teacher
who has no Interest in subjects
other than his own, or tends to
belittle other subjects, Is an Ignoramus and a menace to students.
6. He must be intelligent, he must
be imbued with a zeal for growing
in knowledge.
7. As far as possible he must not
feed his students with rehashed
mental food, but strive to send
them to the springs of knowledge,
to the great original minds of the
ages, through whom they might
be inspired with the spirit of knowledge, the spirit of searching and
investigation.
