ship from Montgomery to Atlanta,
thence by train to Washington, said
that Souther had "a pretty little field"
but that he was surprised to find it
not quite as large as expeced and
agreed with the commanding officer,
Lieut.-Col. F. T. Dickman, that the
field should be extended half a mile
further south. He inquired as to the
capacity OF the hangers for storage
of surplus planes 1t is expected that
planes from other fields will be sent
here until disposed of otherwise.
Col Gilmore was much disappoint-
ed to learn of the condition of the
roads between Americus and the field.
Although the post has been designated
as a permanent field, the. amount Of
activity that would take place and the
number of men that will be stationed
here will depend great deal on local
conditions and in this connection he
would recommend that Sumter county
build first class road from Americus
to the field, which could be used in
bad as we'll as good weather.

BOARD; TO MEET
HERESATURDAY
Finance Committee Accepts Commis-
sion to Raise Funds for WhirI-
wind Bond Campaign

About three hundred leading citizens
of Sumter county-men living in all
sections of the county, have been Sc
lected by Chairman Hixon, of the Sum-
ter county Bond Campaign committee,
as his advisory board to conduct the
campaign for the bonds, and notice Of
appointment and call for a meeting
of this advisory committee next Satur>
da afternoon at 3 o'clock were being
sent out todayeby Chairman Hixon. The
list of names of the committee will be
given out for publication Friday, after
every member of the committee has
had time to receive notification of ap>
pointment.
1t was announced today by Judge
HiXon that finance committee, COM
posed of Frank Sheffield, Frank Har-
rold and Frank Lanier, had been nam
ed and each man had accepted the ap-
pointment, for the purpose of provid-
ing the necessary funds for conduct
ing the campaign in a thorough and
business like way. AS this is to be en-
tirely an educational campaign, no
pains or expense will be spared to
spread every shred of information
about the proposed bond issue and the
paving preject to every remote section
of the county.
Arrangements have been made for
conducting a whirlwind campaign for
the bonds from this time until election
day, April 9, w. w. Dykes, vice presi-
dent of the Rotary club, has been ap-
pointed chairman of the speakers bu-
reau, and the Rotary club has been
enlisted to take charge of the bureau.
Active workers for the bonds say that
the bulk of the comparatively limited
opposition to the bonds so far en-
couE lered has been found to be due to
misunderstanding or lack of authen-
tic or thorough knowledge of the
bonds proposal and the plans to fol-
low the voting of the bonds.

Individual Plane
To Outstrip Auto
In Years, Belief

SOUTHER FIELD, March 20
A Boston news bureau telegraphic
canvas covering every state in the
union, shows on January 1 there
were 6,225,192 automobiles and
motor trucks registered, an expan-
sion of seventy-three per cent. in
two years. On this basis, an Off
Ger here who has grown up with
the telegraph, telephone and auto
mobile predicts that the growth of
the airplane will be so fast that in
less than ten years it will pass the
automobile.
This prediction is based on the
probable perfection of what can
be called the Individual Airplane"
that will fly slowly only few feet
above the ground and be to the
air what the bicycle is to the high
way.
"A fortune awaits the inventor
of this individual airplane,' and
airplane engineers would be glad
to pass on any ideas submitted by
those working on mechanism of
this character" says the officer.
Among the most valuable men
to the human race are the airmen
of today who will become instruc-
tors and directors or air opera
tions in the future. If / were f.
nancially interested in a large
aerial corporation, | should con-
slider l had made a great bargain
if 1 could, contract with couple of
hundred government trained and
educated aviators," he added.
The air service is to teach it's
enlisted men to fly and has open
ed the way for enlistments. 1he
ffuota desired will be filled as
quickly as men can present
themselves for the examination re-
quired to enlist.
