PEARY TO HELP MAKE
WORLD MAP FOR FLIERS

Rear Admiral Peary is chairman OF n

stations, main roads and waterways.
Aviators who have to fly across diff
ferent countries, as they do in Europe, are
forced to consult numberless maps be-
forehand. Rear Admiral Peary noted this
lack OF uniform scale and signs when he
attended the tenth International Geo
graphical Conference last year. lie sug-
gested to the Aero Club that 1t take the
first step toward realizing this project.
The work OF the Peary committee. be-
sides making an aeronautcal map OF the
United States. will be to encourage long
distance flying by chart and compass, as
II is done in Europe to urge the estab-
lishment Of a chain OF aerodromes and
landing stations and to bring about an
understanding between the sporting, mill
tary and scientific authorities of different
countries who have been making aeronau-
teal maps.
The Aero Club has considered for four
years the making OF an aeronautical map
of the United States An experiment was
made In 1911 which resulted In mapping
Long Island. but 1t was found then that
to insure success II was necessary to
have the cooperation of other countries
to decide ON the scale and signs to be
adopted.
