80 Les MONIES April 22-IntereSt in an
saeroplane corps is apparent from the
letters which come to the adjutanr
generals office OF the Iowa National
Guard. These letters do not come from
enthusiasts either but from progressive
and successful business men. Just yes
terday Adjutant Logan received let
ter from business man who expressed
his views on the establishment Of ar
aerial corps. f..~- -. -
General Logan feels that the Iowa
guard should have an aerial corps but
there Is no way In which the equip
ment could be secured unless the war
department should arrange to provide
the machines. Each operator should
have at least two machines. It would
be a great help II the guard had two
trained aviators, each with two ma
chimes. A machine costs $4,000. Be-
sides that truck for carrying the ma
chine and to use in starting is neces-
sary. So II the state has two avi-
$ators properly equipped their machines
would cost $4,000 and over. 49,
II Aviation is not particularly hazard
Gus in General Logan's opinion. The
accidents for the most part occur in
fancy flying or in attempts for rec
ords, he say. The Wright brothers have
been following the business for years
without serious accident, he says, and
with the success which manufacturers
are achieving in perfecting the ma
chimes the hazard in aviation is being
constantly lessened. 49, ~,

tract The bridge which is to be built
lover Court avenue between East Tenth

cred. The state executive council does
mot know whether or not lit will have
sufficient funds to build the bridge this
season. It is probable that the SOL

some time yet. ~

their policies may be able ito get re-
ginstated by making up back payments.

4 E. D. ,Chassell. who is in the city
hooking after his interests here, was
much amused over the story which has
been started that he had moved to
Canada to make his home. He says ne
is resident of Iowa and expects TO
remain SO the rest of his life. He has
never moved to. Canada nor ever con-
eidered 30 doing: but he expects to
make a short trip to Saskatchewan
next month to look after putting In
crops on several large farms he oper-
ates. and will as usual make several
sutf1er trips to keep in close touch with
sh,s farms. but that Is something quite
inherent from removing from Iowa.
