BY WILLIAM ULLMAN,

Just as the bicycle paved the way
Nor the automobile, SO is the automo-
bile now grooming the country for
general acceptance of the airplane.
So much has been learned In the
manufacture. distribution and use of
the automobile that will be of great
'ssistance In developing the airplane
nat doubtless many now engaged in
'he automobile business will logically
'Xpand into the production and sale
OF aircraft.
Various signs point to the truth of
this trend, as the most important ones
summarized below will show:
l. The automobile is reaching A
point of congestion where the person
who desires freedom of transporta- :
tion naturally thinks in terms of air
travel.
2. The average person is becoming
more accustomed to speed. as evil
denced by the higher normal speeds
OF even small, light cars.
}. The automobile Is rapidly reach
ing point of perfection where 1T
can do nearly everything in the way
of performance except fly.
4. The tendency, even in closed
cars. is toward lightness. despite the
increased speed ability.
5. Manufacture and merchandising
of cars has reached such a high level
of efficiency that a reasonably safe
and practical plane. granted it could
be invented, could be sold to the pub
lie In large quantities within a very
short period of time.
1t seems to be characteristic of the
automobile that it molds the entire
social. business and scientific life of
the nations in which it becomes pop
ular. and it is natural that its influ-
ence on aviation should be plainly
felt.
If, as many believe. the automobile
is a forerunner of the airplane, then
the present trend in automobile de-
sign, sale and use must be regarded
as prophetic of an era of transporta-
tion in which the airplane will COM
plete the transportation scheme of
things.
Cars CongestinE Cities.
Traffic experts and architects are
rather generally agreed that the au-
tomobile is rapidly outgrowing the
average city, the rate of increase of
congestion being in excess of the in
crease in street widening.
The long-diStanCe tourist would be
a ready prospect for a safe, economi-
cal and speedy airplane, it is widely
believed, and as soon as the rate of
increase in automobile registration
reaches certain point the airplane
will come into popularity out of ne
Cessity.
This process will unlikely follow
the tedious beginnings of the automo-
bile, owing to the remarkable physi-
cal and psychological changes which
the automobile has brought about.
The motorist is reminded that it

was only comparatively few years
ago when the great majority of peo-
pie actually feared to travel by mo-
tor and not more than ten years ago
when speed of twenty miles per
hour was considered fast enough for
safety. Five years ago the motorist
learned that in the improved cars
thirty miles an hour was not excess
sive, while today the most timid peo-
pie do not feel uncomfortable at rail-
road speed when the roads are good
Possibilities of Future.
Then what of tomorrow? many are
asking. How long will it be before
be equal to that for taking off" In
an airplane, always keeping in mind
that the airplane is being designed
to allow for lower taking off, and
landing" speeds?
A conscientious driver tells Of be-
ing fined for speeding in a luxurious
car which he had never handled be-
fore. He thought he was going about
thirty miles per hour. but the motor
cycle officer said fifty-five. The fine
was imposed not because this rate of
speed was dangerous in itself, but be-
cause such speed on congested road
is not apropos of traffic conditions.
Just how far the speed of the auto
mobile must go before the airplane
steps in as, the logical TRANSFORMATION
how rapidly the automobile continues
to increase in popularity.
Is Transportation Need.
In view of the remarkable improve
ments in transportation. few can over
look the possibilities in the airplane.
Engineers have learned to overcome
the most serious obstacles. but have
not concentrated on the atrplane be-
cause the automobile has been the
most practical form of transportation
even though 1T has lacked the speed
of the airplane. In other words, what
experience the engineers are gaining
in their work on the automobile may
shortly be applied to the work of
making the airplane practical for
fast, long-distance transportation.
All the facilities of the automobile
industry will be at the disposal of the
engineers, with the automobile man.
ufacturers doubtless branching out
into the airplane business, as many
of them did during the war.
Making million airplanes year
when single manufacturer has been
able to build up an organization to
make that many cars annually,
though being in business but a COM
paratiyely few years.
Speaking from a sales standpoint,
one automobile dealer declares the
experience gained in selling cars will
make it possible to sell airplanes at
an astonishing rate once the motorist
has need for plane in conjunction
with his motoring. AS evidence Of
this he points to the fact that 100000
automobiles can be sold in a months

Study of Au Traffic Units
Urged in Driue for Safety
Washington Dealers Belieue Average
Fatalities Cannot Be Placed at Door
of Driuers or Pedestrians.

Accident prevention work should
take a new turn IL the suggestion
offered by the Washington Automo-
tive Trade Association is acted upon
promptly. According to a statements
just issued by the local dealers or
ganiZation, the public as we'll as the
automobile authorities must recognize
what is known as the traffic acci-
dent" before any genuine progress
can be expected
For years the public regarded all
traffic misinformation as automobile
accidents" says the Washington Au-
tomotive Trade Association statement.
Later 1t was discovered that the pc
destrian was a more direct cause of
traihc casualties than the automobile
or Its driver. and the term pedestrian
accident came into vogue. 1T now
remains for us to recognize the fact
that 1t is neither the automobile nor
the pedestrian that is directly respon-
slble for these misfortunes. but traffic
itself.
Is Complex Affair.
Traffic Is a complex affair in which
the automobile. its driver, the pedes-
TRAN. the motor car passenger, the
bicycle, the motor cycle, the horse
drawn vehicle, the street car and the
tfaf1lc oflcer play their respective
roles. Whenever anything occurs that
disturbs the normal flow of such traf-
fc there Immediately develops con-
gestion or danger the inevitable re-
suit Of which is an accident or a fa-
tality.
The problem is to eliminate, or at
least minimize. the disturbing forces
in traffic. This will automatically
minimize accidents
Under existing conditions a pedes-
trian will often be involved in traf-
fic accident when he is in no way di-
rectly responsible. 1t is not that he
fails to exercise proper judgment in
using the streets. but rather that
traffic fails to avail itself of the prop
er functioning and conduct of it's
units.
1T is important to remember that
every unit of a given section of traffic
could be conducting itself in the be-
lief that il was doing the proper and

time, as against few hundred when
the motor car first made a bid for
popularity. This selling organiza
ton, he contends. has developed a
healthy public buying power which
should some day be able to accept
both the automobile and the airplane.
The average man has been encour-
aged to earn more so that he might
benefit by the advantages of automo-
bile ownership, and it is through de-
veloping his resources that he will
be able to buy airplanes in addition
to his cars, and without any more
difficulty than he experiences in buy

dition to the other comforts of life.
AS car manufacturers have fire.
quently pointed out, the investment
in cars has been largely responsible
for the ability of the public to alb
sorb greater and greater production.
The automobile has helped put the
nation in position to buy cars in
quantities, and it would seem that
the process will be repeated in the
case of the airplane. since the aver
