AIR TRANSPORTATION
IMPORTANT To j. S.
COMMERCE ADVANCE
Europe Criss-Crossed With Air
Routes---50,0OO Passengers
Travel 100000 Miles
(Rv Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-A be-
lief that air transportation can be
established under suitable con-
ditions in the United States as an
important additional channel OF
commerce was expressed in a re-
mort to the War Department by
lieutenant John P. Van Zandit OF
the army air service after a FIRST
hand investigation in Europe.
In the course of his visit, which
was undertaken in the interest OF
the American government, Lieut..
Van zandt travelled more than
5000 miles by air over the Euro
pean continent and gathered from
many sources detailed information
on the subject of commercial avn
alton.
The report pictured the old world
as criss-erossed with regularly es-
tablished air routes, over which this
year $4,000 passengers have been
transported 4,80O,00O niles on
journeys covering points from Fin
land to Africa and from England
to the Bosphorus.
Comparing conditions for com
mercial aviation in Europe and
the United States, Lieutenant Van
Zandt pointed out that the nations
across the Atlantic are faced with
fundamental political difficulties in
developing air lines. Commercial
aviation there nearly always in
wolves flights over several countries.
The United States, on the other
hand, is probably better suffer po-
litically to the establishment of
self-supporting air lines than any
other country in the world, by rea-
son Of its geographical extent, free
dom from custom restrictions, com
mon national interests, and homo
genious business methods.

air service indicate, the report con-

NEW YORK, April IL Uncle
Sam has many fighting regiments
which have won glory under hattie
conditions ranging all the way from
frontier skirmishes with the Indians
to the Walled City at Picking and
digging trenches in France, but per-
haps no outfit in the army can
boast a history more typical Ut
the American soldiers varied career
than that Of the old Sixth United
States Cavalry, now stationed at
Fort Oglethorpe, Ga.
At least so say army officers of
New York who are engaged in a
painstaking survey of the martial
deeds of America since the days
OF the Continental Army right up
to the late activities of the A. E. f.,
with it's consequent sojourn on the
banks of the Rhine not excepted.
How this hardy little band of
horsemen, taking the field in Au.
gust, 1861, swept through the civil
war, fought the Apaches, and ruled
the wild and lawless country around
Texas and Arizona makes stirring
tale which has given the officer.

Sixth as a young lieutenant.

through the ancient portals of the

precincts at the close of the Boxer

The highest decoration an Amer.

for service overseas. The regiment

Bryan" every time he appears near
the stage. They think the Commoner
will start something" And he
generally does.
This convention was not as far
apart on the Khan and anti-Klan issue
as the vote on naming the Khan in
the platform would seem to indicate.
The plain facts are that the great
majority of the delegates are out
spokenly against the Khan, but they
could not "go along" with the "radi-
calls" who insisted that the name Ku
Klux Klan should be specifically de-
nounced The bitterness of the fight
grew out of the fact that the radl-
cal anti Klanners Unanswered them
selves into a position from which 1t
was difficult to withdraw.
They announced at the beginning
of the struggle that the Khan must
be named. Therefore, they felt that
if the Khan was not named it would
consider that it had won a victory.
The anti-klan plank in the platform
as adopted went much further than
most Of the anti-klanners believed
it would go before they came to New
York. But having set their goal
upon the naming Of the order. they
had to fight to the last ditch for that
position.
What may be termed the economic
consequences" of the Khan fight in
the convention, with all its attending
fireworks and publicity for the
hooded order, have begun. On Tues
day night in a neighboring New Jer-
sey county more than 400 men were
indicted into the Khan with semi
public ceremonies
