PROGRESS MADE IN AVIATION
The United States is More Than Hold
ing Its Own.

During the year 1921 the use Of
aircraft for civilian transportation in
creased 20 per cent. over the previous
year, according to a report forward
ed to the Department of Commerce
by the Aeronautical Chamber of Com
merce of America.
The reports show that throughout
the country 1900 civilian airplanes
were in operation during the year
and they carried approximately 275,'
600 passengers a total distance of g..
100000 miles. These figures, accord.
ing to the report, are based upon
authenticated returns received by the
aeronautical chamber from all sec.
tions Of the country "and tend tc
prove that America is holding her
own in the air, as far as individual
effort and accomplishment are con-
cerned.
Every phase of aviation is covered
in the report, including the various
records made during the year.
Among the outstanding civilian
achievements, is that of the aerial
mail, which lin 1921 made such a
record for efficiency on the transcon-
tinental route that it is recognized as
a model for civilian aerial trans
port the world over,' the re-
port says: Letters have been
delivered in New York two days
after casual mailing on the Pacific
coast" it continues The service has
an average of 1882 per cent. efici-
ency, that is, in completed trips on
scheduled time since it was stared in
May, 1918.
THE air mail has during the last
year completed it's wireless COM
munication system, the 4 stations
now having radio plants, three oper-
ated by the navy department and the
others by the air mail service"
