dry and hot. "Our last night"
She leaned her elbows on the type

to her parted lips. She said to her

There is indeed a great demand

smaller apartments but still has not
filled the need for larger ones. There
are still splendid opportunities for
the construction of the smaller type

hotel and apartment sites for less
money than any other city of its size
in the United States.
San Antonio is becoming known
throughout the nation as a city Of
better homes. Better homes are be-

FORD PLANE PLANS OUTLINED.

PAUL SMITHS. N. Y, July 90
R.-The Ford Motor Co. g interest in
aviation Is cerftered for the present at
least, and perhaps permanently. in the
manufacture of airplanes rather than
in the business of commercial flying.
Edsel Ford, vice president of the
company and director Of It's aviation
branch, which Is now turning out an
all.metal trimotor n1onoplans, out.
lined the plans of his company as re-
CARDS plane manufacture before Ieav-
cussed commercial flying with Presi-
dent Coolidge.
Sees Cut I'm Cost.
Prior to his departure yesterday
afternoon with Mrs. Ford for Breton
Woods, N. H., and Seal Harbor, Me-,
the manufacturer. asserted that, al
though much remained to be done be.
fore commercial aviation could be made
economical, he believed production
costs could be cut by increasing vol
ume. He was not prepared to predict,
however, whether the plane his com.
pany Is now making could ever be
manufactured in large quantities and
at comparatively low prices.
Mr.. Ford was optimistic over the
new Type Oh D6lHK Drought
out by the company. Planes of this
type are already In use for transport
ing automobile parts once daily from
Detroit to Chicago. and twice daily
from Detroit to Cleveland.
The transportation cost has aver
aged 1873 cents a pound on freight,
but the time required for the air
Journey is less than half the train
schedule. The engine used on the
plane has nine cylinders, but Mr..
Ford said experiments were now be-
ing made with an eight.cylinder mo.
tor, which might lead to improve
meIlts.
Now Costs $4,000.
The cost of the present plane is
ST., 900, but the manufacturer said he
believed this could be reduced by 25
per cent when the first 100 machines,
now under construction, had been
manufactured and given thorough
tests.
Although he believed that the air.
plane has important commercial pos
sibilities. in addition to its usefulness
to national defense, Mr.. Ford said he
did not think 1t would ever crowd out
the railroad, but would rather provide
. mother means Of hixh.speed trana
partation.
