Americas Future in the Air

before commercial aviation can be-
come an important, self-supporting
institution in America, the bushes

also means practical demonstration Of

Of air craft says Searle Hendee in

Closely related to the scheme is the
proposal that air craft carry import

HERE'S HOW ID GE7
 ID FAIR GROUND TO
 SEE AIR MEMORIAL

Persons bound for the state fair grounds tonight for the Luke air mem orial tournament must go in one of two ways, either by Grand avenue or Nineteenth avenue south of the grounds. Both Nineteenth avenue north of the grounds and Mcdowell road from Seventh avenue to the grounds have been closed.
 The closing of the two thorough fares to vehicles has been done to aid fliers in case forced landing is made on either of the roads closed, both of which are in line with the take off in the grounds.
 For those who have no cars to take them to the grounds for the tourna- ment, a number of citizens have do- mated cars to be used officially for taking passengers to the field. These cars will charge soc each way pc, passenger, and the proceeds will go to the memorial fund. On each of these cars will be a sign saying: Of ficial car. Donate soc to the Luke Memorial Fund and ride to the Fair Grounds"
 Regular commercial cars will also be operated to and from the fair grounds. The city has authorized a 25c fare each way for these. Both official and commercial cars will main tain regular schedules, starting from the downtown district.

HUSBAND MARRIED AGAIN LAST MONTH
 SAYS WIFE IN SUIT

That her husband went through the pretense" of marrying Ygnacio Rod riguez May 20 when he had wife and six children, is the charge made against Teodoro Medellin by Falicitas Medeliin in a divorce action filed in the superior court yesterday.
 Mrs. Medellin claims to have beer married in Ojuelas de Jalisco, Mexico, 25 years ago and that she is still the wife of the man who married again last month.
 According to the plaintiff, when she and her family were residing in Yava- pal county in 1915, the defendant in duced her to take the children to Fl Paso, alleging that he could support them at less expense in Texas than in Arizona. Ever since that date, the plaintiff states, Medellin has lived in this state and has not contributed to the support of his wife nor the sons and daughters who have been solely dependent upon their mother.
 Mrs. Medellin alleges that when Medellin abandoned and ceased to support the family, he kept with him 5000 in cash which has been invested in ranch near Glendale, and in which she claims a community interest. She asks that Medellin be restrained from disposing of the property until after the settlement of the divorce, asks for $50 month alimony, attorney fees and $50 court costs.

 A warrant was issued for the man several weeks ago, and when Mont gomery went north on business he chanced to stop over at his ranch for a few hours While having dinner with the ranch hands he inquired if any of them had heard anything of one Thompson. He was informed that the cowboy on his right was the wanted man.

A|RPLANE EXPRESS
 FUR PHOENIX FRUIT
 |S PICTURE DRAWN

That the airplane would be thor oughly established in commercial way in a few years and would become as ne cessary to the daily life of the people as the motor car is at present, was the prediction of the aviators from Rock well Field who are in Phoenix for the Luke Memorial today and who were guests at the weekly luncheon meeting of the Rotary club yesterday.
 Lieut.. w. c. Goldsborough. Lieut.. R. H. Haslam, Lieut.. Bernard Cummings, Lieut.. J. T. Lawson and Cadet Donald L. Carler were the flying men present, and all spoke at short length.
 It was a wonderful sight, the avia- tors said, flying here from San Diego, the strip of green of the Imperial Val ley and the beautiful green of the Salt River Valley showing so sharply against the desert and the mountains. However, coming from the cool of 10000 feet altitude to the land level temperature was not so pleasant, they added.
 The airplanes must give real ser vice to the public and not merely an amusement before that business could become thoroughly established, the air men declared They pictured an air plane fruit express for this valley, whereby the fruit of the Salt River valley could be transported to market at 100 miles an hour.
 But before such transformation could come to pass, there must be an entirely different airplane constructed they said. At present. after an army plane has flown four hours, there must be six hours of work put upon it, over hauling it and replacing parts. The present planes, they stated, are made for speed alone.
 Although the airmen reminded the RCtarians that in inviting the aviators to come to Phoenix to land in the present field at the state fair grounds, they were assuming a responsibility, they nevertheless assumed a part of the responsibility for the wrecking of two planes in landing.
 We make mistakes" they declared, ''and the weather conditions were against us, too"
 That America was slow in developing aviation was the statement of the air men, who declared that while England for the next year had appropriated $250, 100000 for aviation, the United States had put in a bill for only $85,- 000,000, and this had been sealed down by the house to s15,00O.000.
 The ships built in the future, they stated with certainty, would be so instructed that they would be abso- lutely safe. There would be no chance for an accident.
 Phoenix appears to be more interest ed in aviation than any other city of it's size in the country the airmen stated and they predicted that this city would be an important station on the air plane routes of the country soon to be established.
 We expect to have three more planes in Phoenix for the Luke tourna- ment tomorrow" they said, "and We will put on the very best show we can.''

BOTH HOUSES AGREE
 0N ARMY IF 325,000
 FUR THE NEXT YEAR

WASHINGTON. June 27. - Senate and house conferrees on the army ap- propriation bill today reached an agreement to fix the average size of the 1920 army at 325,000 officers and men. This total is 75,000 less than proposed by the senate and 25,000 more than authorized originally by the house.
 The agreement means that for the last nine months of the year ending June 30, 1920, the army will be com posed of 225,000 officers and men, made necessary by the surplus above 325, 900 during the next three months.
 In announcing that 325,000 was the figure agreed upon, Chairman Wads- worth of the senate military committee said it was the. lowest number that could be named and still keep the army within the limits prescribed by the na- tional defense act, which requires the maintenance of an army of 25,000 Another meeting will be held tomor- row at which the appropriations for aviation, ordnance and other remaining items will be considered.
 Efforts of the house conferees to reduce increased senate appropriations in April were successful, the senate appropriation of S15.0OO,OOO for bar racks and quarters being cut in half, while that of $3,500000 for the signal corps was reduced to s3,250,000. The senate appropriation of $430,000 for the military intelligence branch was re- duced to s400000
