Under the present system. II was

In analyZing results accomplished
in the training of Naval Reserve avi-
atorS, it was pointed out in a letter
from the Bureau of Navigation to the
commandant of the Washington Navy
Yard and to a COmmandant of naval
districts. that although the prescribed
amount of flying has been given to
student aviators. the already quail
fed reserve aviators are averaging
less annual flying than the bureau
desires and is able to give them. This
has been true not only for the periods
while the officers are performing their
15-day annual training periods, but as
well for drill flights during the re
mainder Of the year.
1t was pointed out to the command
ants, that In order to maintain an
efficient naval aviation reserve the
bureau considers that it is more i'm
portant to keep existing aviators well
trained than to cut down the amount
of fight training given them in order
to increase the number of student avi

them this magnificent enterprise that
is the automotive industry stands as

In investing in an automobile Amer
lea has reaped an enormous profit

Provinciality, narroWness of per-

Use Trick Methods.

Despite trick" methods of securing
a car from the thief of cunning ma
ture, the best method is to use the
lock provided on the car with unfail-
ing accuracy, the police advise. So
clever are the schemes described by
detectors of gangs bent on plumber
in automobiles that immunity from
theft is never certain, 1t is agreed by
enforcers of the law and protectors of
public property.
Experience has taught them that
guile is part of the makeup of gangs
of automobile thieves. Beware Of
the little boy who offers to guard your
car for you while you are in res
taurant," admonish the police. "He
is more than likely dupe of a gang
of thieves, who have planted him for
the express purpose of fooling you
into trusting him, so that they may
later make off with your motor"
They explain that perhaps the poor
little chap is innocent and is merely
trying to earn an honest half dollar
They also explain that they have
caught several such cute little fell
lows who have later confessed to inn
plication in thefts too numerous to
believe
Such is the popularity of the fine
art of automobile stealing that it has
even spread to Europe. A trade of
international character was disclosed
by the police with the arrest of a
resident of New Jersey-a woman,
and pretty. The authorities claimed
that she had shipped forty-six cars
from Europe to this country, sold
them here, arranged for their theft
and then resold them.
The activities of the woman repre-
sentative of the gang We're traced
when handsome machine of foreign
manufacture was found in a New
Jersey garage registered in the name
OF the suspect. When asked how this
particular car had come into her DOS
session she was unable TO explain
She had even neglected to take out a
lalSe registration. Communication
with police headquarters in New York
soon brought forth the information
that the foreign car had been re.
ported stolen not a month after its
purchase
In the public interest it has been
ruled by law that ii is criminal negli.
gence for car owner who has been
despoiled Of his automobile to refrain
from reporting Immediately to the
police, so that a check up on regis.
tration records may be made imme-
diately before the thief is able TO,
