General Patrick Expected To Act
After Getting Report OF Globe
eirdIers-Leasue Step
Feared.

Washington.-The next giant stride
in commercial aviation, officers of the
Army Air Service declared. is the
establishment of international bases
and pooling Of expenses and receipts
to keep mail routes open around the
world.
As soon as the world flyers arrive
here from Dayton and complete their
report, Major General Patrick will dis
ouss with the proper authorities the
matter of laying out such route and
Of providing the proper bases, per
sonnel and equipment
[ General Patrick has already indi.
Gated most Of the route of the world
flyers across Asia and Europe can be
used for the delivery of international
air mail. He has substituted such
stepping as the Azore Islands
for Iceland and @ eenland In the At
lantic, and Hawaii and the Philippines
for Alaska and the Aleutian Islands
in the Pacific, It is believed the Gen
eral either will call the conference or
be invited to sit in as its head.
Word from England that a well
known topographer of that country
has drawn plans for system Of bases
around the world has been received
with great interest here. The authori,
ties are also watching closely the ef-
forts of the Dutch to establish an air
route between Holland and the Dutch
Indies, flying through Europe instead
Of over the United States.
These efforts of individual nations,
it is felt, will result in confusion and
the violation of many laws, and a con
ference at an early date to adopt an
International code is considered neces-
sary. After the adoption of the code
practical steps could be taken to sup
ply the physical equipment
Fear is felt in Army and Navy cir
cles that the League of Nations will
take hold of the situation and fix up
an arrangement in which the United
States would either have no voice or
take an insignificant role.
II is to guard against this invasion
of the fruits of victory in the world
fight that high officials Of the United
States Government are turning the
matter over seriously in their minds.
