1920 when the Italian Ferrarin was
making his famous trip from Rome
to Toxic. I was at F'oochow. We.
knew beforehand of hxs coming and
an Italian Major stationed at Foo
chow had selected a landing spot and
put up lot of marks for him to dis
tinguish it by The news that fly
ing machine was coming hao spread
all through the city and I do not
think there was d single Chinese in
the town who had not heard of it.
1--WE had expected him to reach
Foochow and land early in the after
noon but having no maps except of
the coast he had missed the most di-
rect route and as result was delay
we had given up ali hopes
of his coming that day and
all the marks had been remov-
ed from the landing ground. There
was gunboat in F'oochow at the
time and several of the officers were
sitting on my porch with me. They
had seen service in France and were
more or less familiar with flying ma
chimes. 1t had just begun to be dusk
when one of them suddenly exclaim-
ed My God there's an airp1aner We
all rushed out just in time to see Fer
rarin land nicely on the golf course
He was just in time. Fifteen minutes
later it would have been pitch dark
and he would have been hopelessIy
lost.
when the Chinese heard the frs
sound of the airplane motor as il
| circled over the town they had al
rushed out to see it. The whole
population of Foochow was in the
! streets and the sound of their voices
as they talked excitedly came up tt
me from the distance in one grea;
murmur. It was one of the mos
| impressive things ever heard
| The Italian left Foochow fol
| Shanghai at ten a. m. on a Sunday
| and reached the latter place at tire,
| in the afternoon, a journey which
ordinarily takes two days by steamer
| There was the same crowd in the
| streets to see him off as watched hi;
| coming and there was repeated tn.
I same gigantic murmur. I gave hin
a letter to take to the Consul Gen
| efal at Shanghai. This was the frs
official despatch sent by airplane il

FAIRFIELD NEWS

Nine hundred Fairfield school
children will attend school on a part
time basis this year it was learned
today by a Times reporter. The
schools in Fairfield will open tomor-
row and the teachers reported to
their respective schools today to as
sumo their duties for the coming
year.
The transportation problem for a
large percentage of school c5lildre en-
is also a pressing one due to the
lack of trolley facilities. Jitneys
must be hired by the school board
to transport children from the out
lying districts. One of the longest
routes will be from Stratfield to
Fairfield center where the high
school is located.
An increase in the number of pu-
pills is expected to be between $50
and 400. The school board will hold
their monthly meeting this evening.
Mrs David Perry. $3.50 Myrte1 ave-
nue., East Norwalk, was injured in

sfbfe for the accident by Judge Jo-

Fairfield court which was called te
try the case. He was fined s64 or
the charge of reckless driving and

OF
BUILDING IS
SERIOUS HERE

'oThe practical cessation of building
in Bridgeport is becoming a problem
of increasing gravity and one to which
all those interested in our city must
give serious consideration" said S. M.
Hawley of the Bridgeport Savings
Bank, to a Times man today.
THE large accumulation of savings
in the mutual savings banks by the
people of this city has in the past
produced the one available and de-
pendable supply of funds required by
the city for it's real estate develop
ment, and so in the future will the
the savings banks provide the only
supply available to all legitimate
real estate borrowers.
1.-THE real estate loans held by the
four savings banks at the present time
aggregate about S25.000,000 secured
by first mortgage upon improved
property worth over $50,O00,o00. This
is eloquent testimony to the policy
which governs our savings banks,
namely, that the savings deposited by
the people of Bridgeport should be
devoted first to loans on real estate,
to aid in the building of homes, bust
ness blocks. etc., and only when this
demand is satisfied to make outside
investments in the securities provided
by law for the investmen of savings
bank deposits.
eff then the mutual savings banks
are the reservoir of capital upon
which home building and real estate
development has and must depend
any attempt to divert the savings of
the people into other channels and
into other financial Institutions will
proportiona11y diminish the amount
of funds available for the city,
need.
THE laws governing national
| banks very properly and necessarily
| require those banks to keep their de-
posts invested in liquid assets, prin-
| cipa1ly CONNIE rcial paper. and do not
| allow them to loan money on real es.
tate for a period longer than one
| year, with certain unimportant excep-
| lions, so that the savings deposited
| in the savings department of a ma
| tiona1 bank are loaned to CONNIE rcia
| borrowers and therefore lost to the
| real estate borrower.
Gin the face of the continued ant
| large demand for loans on real es.

| the people of Bridgeport to know
| where the city must look in the flu
ture as in the past for its accumula.
