SAT these centres it will discharge
and take on its cargoes, and smaller,
swift airplanes will distribute Them
to their destinations.
I'm this manner the transporta-
ton of the country for important
freight, mail and express packages
will be speeded up. 1t is in this
speeding up that aviation will play
such an important part in the eco
nomical development of the coun-
try. Moreover, the speeding up will
take place without the ratio of ex-
pense that would occur if similar
speeding up took place on the rail
roads.
"Within short period aeronau-
tics will play as important a part in
the daily life Of the nation as the
telephone, telegraph, railroad and
automobile do at present Once
commercial aviation has been thor
oughly developed, we will be as de-
pendent upon it as we are upon the
other forms of transportation.
Another phase Of the CONNER
cial development will be the private

be In full food.
All the leading aeroplane manu-
facturers are taking in orders for
delivery at the earliest possible mo-
ment, and many sales are recorded.
The Curtiss Company has sold
more than thirty-five machines to in
dividuals since the beginning of the
year. Many of them are to be used
for novel purposes, and several for
use in developments abroad.
One Of the purchasers, DR.. Frank
Brewster, of Beaver City, Neb., pur-
chased J. N. ADJ biplane to use in
making calls on his practitioners.
B. L. Brookins, of Oklahoma, has
purchased two Of the new Orioles,
one small scout machine and two J.
N. ADJ machines for distribution
among oil men in that state to make
trips around their holdings.
H. S. Spiesberger, of Chicago,
clothing manufacturer. purchased
two ]. N. ADJ planes for delivery
purposes. Sidney Chaplin, of Los
Angeles, has bought two MI flying
boats and two Orioles for passenger
carrying purposes between Los An
geles and the Catalina Islands.
Major j. E. Stevenot, of Manila.
P. l., has made similar purchase
for transportation purposes between
the Philippine Islands.
The development of the Oriole
type as a commercial vehicle arose
from the requests of I. B. Humph-
reys, Of Denver, Col, who asked
for two especially built aeroplanes
for high altitude work. A man was
sent to Denver and, as a result of
his observations, W. L. Gilmore. one
OF the Curtiss engineers, designed
the Oriole, which won a prize of
$3.50 on it's first flight.
The Glenn L. Martin COMPANY is
completing four modified twin en-
glned aeroplanes of the Martin
Bomber type for passenger-carrying
service between San Diego and
other California cities. This service
will be inaugurated by flight of
all four machines across the CONT
nent from New York. Other ma
chimes will be added as the service
grows.
One order that has Just been
placed calls for machines to carry
material to and from the mahogany
and rubber plantations in Bolivia
where railroads are scarce. At pres
ent the mahogany logs are floated
down the twisting course of the
Amazon and other rivers, a lengthy
and difficult operation. With aero
planes it is expected to speed IN
this work by delivery of dressed
lumber in 1000 pound lots. The
same plan will be adopted for
rubber.

Lesson of Ocean
Trip Summarized

From it we gain four outstand-
ing facts.
Il. The flying boat is the cor
rect type for transatlantic service,
owing to its ability to alight and
continue its trip upon the surface
Of the ocean.
20. The flying beat has proved
It's ability to weather the worst con-
ditions existing at sea.
g. The ocean can be crossed in
direct nonstop fight by larger air
craft Of the flying boat type within
two days.
a. The need for a marine screw
In the hull to propel the boat while
It is on the surface, as the air screws
use too much fuel for surface nav
cation.
1T is not only the performance of
the NC seaplanes which prove the
lying boat to be the correct type
Tor transoceanic fight. The IN
fortunate result Of poor Hawker's
gallant attempt emphasizes it COM
pletely.
While there is still a slender
nope that he may have been res
eaed by some ship on the ocean,
nls chances with boat body would
nave been hundredfold greater.

Glenn Ii. Curtiss Delighted With the Great Scien-
tific and Practical Results of the Navy's Cross
Atlantic Endeavor--An Established Traf

Such is the prediction of Glenn
4. Curtiss, inventor of the first fly
Ing boat and of the first aircraft
to spring from a body Of water into
flight. He has seen the vindication
Of his theories dramatically proven
in the first successful flight across
the ocean by the giant naval sea-
planes of the NC type, which he
designed in cooperation with the
Bureau of Construction of the
United States navy. And it is upon
the result Of this remarkable flight
that he based his prediction in a
special interview with The Tribune.
"The terrible weather conditions
of the Azores, which almost marred
the fight" he said, have taught us
more than we would have learned
had all three flying boats made the
flight without incident. The per-
iormance of Commander John H.
Towers's seaplane division has
taught US many things of great i'm
portance in the development of
aeronautics. The flight has been
worth more than a thousand times
its cost.
