AVIATION MEETINGS
PROVING DISASTROUS
AerOpIane Contests Are Prov
ing Failures, Both Financial
ly and Scientifically.

PARIS. Aug 14.-The failure OF most
of the aviation meetings this summer has
proved a great disappointment to pro-
moters After the tremendous success of
the great meeting at Rheims last year
hundreds OF meetings were organized In
every country in Europe and even In
Egypt. Beginning with the winter
meets along the Riveria these meetings
have continued week after week In al
most every larg city in France. In al
most every case the results for the pro-
moterS have been disastrous.
Even Rheims. with the prestige OF last
year and long series OF broken records
this summer was financial failure: the
loss totaling $50. 900. Those identified
with aviation place the blame upon the
spirit OF CONNIE Realism with which aero
planning is being exploited. Aeroplane
Imagination that promoters hung up
enormous purses and paid fabulous sums
to secure the presence OF the few French
cracks whose exploits had astonished the
world Men like Paulhan, who fourteen
months ago had earned S25 a month as
and getting from SIS 900 TO 900. Every
pilot whether experienced or not, wanted
TO excel his rival in sensational eX-
ploits in order TO get more money and
that was the cause OF several OF the fatal
9 accidents thai have marred the meetings,
The impression in France is that next
year there will not be one meeting where
there were thirty this year. Those inter-
eSted In the real development OF aEla-
tion, however. believe this Will be an adj
rather than a drawback. 1t will,
they think tend to check the recklessness
OF professionals and compel manufac
turers to devote themselves to the per-
fection OF their machines.
