Peace Time AirpIane Flights Nearly

tCharles Lincoln Preston In

There has grown up since August,
1914, an increase so extended in eur
knowledge of the science of flight,
and an improvement so immense in
the building of machines and en-
gines. as would make flying a COM
monplace If peace were declared to-
morrow.
Tn other words, tho peace time pilot
would be provided with sound and
stable machine which would be equal
to varying conditions of wind force,
while so many things have been at

Is now absolutely nothing that could

itself, that Is not thoroughly UNDER

If we eliminate the gun fire from
below the need for aerial combats,
the use of machines so light that
they could be broken in mid-air by
unskillful handling, and the taking
OF the maximum risks as regards
foggy weather. there is nothing to
prevent the pilot from using the air
itself as freely as he would the land
and even more freely than the. sea.

magnetic factories will be present to

Short Practical Course.
The short course will be one of
practical work. Pupils are interested
in driving tractors. They are given
tractors to dismantle and rebuild,
thus giving them the clearest pos
sibIe idea of the construction OF the
motor, clutch, transmission. etc.
The Case people have spared no
pains or expense to make this course
the most thorough and valuable short
term ever offered. Those who have
attended a course are enthusiastic
over the wonderful understanding Of
tractors they have gained. They urge
their friends to attend.
This is not q correspondence course
and does not drag over years time.
1t is practical and takes only a few
days time, when the farmer is the
least busy. August Hanson is sending
out invitations and the way replies
are coming in, he anticipates a
bumper" enrolment.

Federal Control Of Railroads Meets
New York FinancIsrs' Approval.
From The New York World The
Presidents plan for government
control of the country's railroads
has received almost unqualified in
| dorsement from big business
throughout the country and his Sc
| lection Of William q. McAdoo as
director general Of railroads was
approved with almost equal unan-
| unity.
These are the views Of leading
business men.
j. r. Morgan-In my opinion the
| Presidents action should be great
relief to the situation. The rail-
roads have found themselves ham
pered by division of authority and
by the competitive policy imposed
on them by law. AS this situation
could be relieved only by federal ac-
ton, it is a great satisfaction to see
this action taken.
Charles III. Sabin, president of the
Guaranty Trust Company-Presi-

that Mr. McAdoo. having the power,

sition to the move is taking on formid- able proportions. In addition to the protesting petitions filed number of men and women have been working against the proposed increase. They are not satisfied that the company's s operating income with the 5-cent fare is insufficient to meet the operating expenses even at the higher rate of wages the employees claim, and com pany officials concede. are necessary to enable them to live and support their families
 Referring to President Pevear's statement that he would, oppose an au- dit of the company books by the city if it were to be made merely to gratify curiosity, President N. A. Barrett of the board of city commissioners had not considered the matter of auditing the books, that there was no occasion for such an audit. and that the city would not incur the expenses of such an investigation in view of the fact that it was not interested in the con troversy between the company and it's employees. The city is interested in maintaining a good car service, how ever, he said, and the company would be expected to maintain it.
 The commissioners will keep hands off in the campaign for the higher fares, satisfied to let them go into eff feet if a majority Of the people ap- prove, and determined that Birming- ham shall have a good car service in any event.
