BIG STRIDES IN AVIATION ARE
 FORECAST

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. - Aviation Is expected by experts to make long strides in the coming year, based on the accomplishments of this new science druing the past year in the face of depressed economic condi- rions
 Especially do military and naval n1en expect great things of their new branch, although this view is subject to change from the rigid programme Of economy now on.
 The value of aviation as a vital aid to the military and naval forces of the country is expected to be demon strated with particular force during rhe maneuvers of the two Atlantic and Pacific fleets. The value of nav al aircraft to the fleets has already been demonstrated for spotting gun- fire, scouting and bombinb. The air forces of each fleet, Atlantic and Pa- eifie, are now composed of scouting spotting, torpedo attack, bombing and ,site-balloon squadrons. A special type of plane for spotting gun-fire is DOW being developed by a private company for the navy. although nc

plans have been completed yet.
 The peculiar value of both spot ting and scouting planes has been en- hanced by the rapid development of means of communication between the plane and land and sea bases, includ- ing ships. It is expected that this feature will aid greatly the develop ment of battle practice for this new arm during coming maneuvers. It will also bear directly on the pro- gress of commercial aviation this year, which was only held up last year by the general lack of money to exploit this new possibility, as Flu rope has done.
 AS evidence of the rapid strides aviation is capable of, navy experts pointed out the development of de- fensive methods which greeted the proved capabilities of the bombing plane. *2't ;HE

J0BLESS CRISIS IS WlTHSTOOD
 IN ITALY

ROME, Feb. 7.-Italy has passed through the worst of the unemploy- ment crises, according to the officials having statistics on this subject November and December saw nearly half million jobless out of an 1tal- ian population roughly considered to be forty millions.
 Despite the crises in regard to coal through which Italy has been pass- ing. the metal trades have not sui fered as much as pessimists feared About eighty thousand metal work CTS have been laid off, but that rep resents about one-sixth of the work men in this branch.
 About 1O8,000 of the unemployed, are from the farms and vineyards, and about 43.O00 are textile workers. The Venice district, which Is not in- dustrial but agricultural, reports nearly 100000 out of work. The in- dustrial regions, except for Lombardy and Emilia. have not suffered in proportion.
 DoLEs ARE AVOIDED
 The Government has tried to avoid the system of doles or unemployment
