 "The alrplane industry just now is marking time in It's development due to lack of suitable legislation covering the operation of planes ana the stagnaton of public interest in aeronautics as a commercial venture since the war.
 "The airplane, driven with its powerful gasoline propelled engines, will always hold It's own in compeu. tion with the dirigible.
 The dirigibles of the future will be much bigger than they arc today and are ideal transportation facili. ties in cross.oceanic flights.
 The airplane, too. will be larger. just how much more, 1t is impossible to say at this time.
 Tn all probability the airplans will reach 8 happy medium in sire after 1t has passed It's growing paine and the manufacturers cut 1t doww to the right dimensions.
 "For cross'country flight nothing can beat the airplane. The dirigibis Is no match for 1t when used Sos such purposes.
 "The dlrIgible loses efficiency when soaring to great heights e avoid mountains and Is dependent upon mooring masts which must have been fixed for its arrival before hand.

 "As step in the direction of fu. ture aeronautics. I have designed . ship capable of carrying 24 passen. gers which could make daily run between New York and Miami, Fla, In eight hours.
 This plane Is equipped for the first time with all the standard Pull. man comforts, It has an electric kitchen aboard and washrocnss for both men and women passengers.
 The plane I am discussing will have three motors of the butler type. Each motor generates 500 horse. power.
 Two pilots will operate the craft through dual control system.
 Any engine may be increased or lowered in speed without interfering with the operation of the other mo- tor units"

 In his opinion all excess fare trains will have been taken oit the railroads by that time, due to competition from the air.
 Passengers, 10 whom the sayinH of time is an important element in the transaction of business or hur- ried transport across the country, will no more think of using railroads then than they would the old.tims stage coach now.
