Spurred on by the flights over the

pilots are seeking Commerce Depart

ever-increa sing numbers, according to
figures made public today by the de-
partment, which announced that 2,059
civilian pilots are seeking operating
licenses, while 1879 applications to
license planes and 1925 applications
to license air mechanics are either
pending or have been granted.
So great has been the pressure upon
the new division of the department
since the transatlantic and San Fran
cisco-Hawaii flights that w. p. Mac
Cracker, jr., Assistant Secretary in

issue a, general order allowing applica
tons TO come into force as licenses

to pass upon them.
Maj. G. NJ. Young. in charge Of

approximately 800 airplanes already

increase in aeronautical activity dur
ing the last year, since the Govern
ment took charge of civilian flying in

DATA
Barred TO HESSE
Field Secretary Douthftt OF
Service Body Reports on
June Activities.

A tabulation Of police activities In
the various precincts in connection
with liquor law enforcement was pre-
sented today to Maj Edwin b. Hesse,
superintendent of police, by Harry n.
Douthitt. field secretary Of the Citi-
Zens' Service Association.
Maj. Hesse later said he had not
had time TO examine the report, which
is based on the official daily reports
prepared by the various precincts.
The figures cover June.
Examination of similar police re-
ports given to the press during that
month disclosed marked activity on
the part of Sengt. Little's dry squad
and in many of the precincts. Sew
eral of the precincts recorded few
arrests in prohibition cases. however.
This does not necessarily reflect on
the police of those precincts, it is
pointed out. but may be indicative of
the exemplary habits Of the citizens
in their respective jurisdictions.
1t is said that each Summer there
is noted a general decline ip number
OF liquor arrests over those reported
in Winter, and this is attributed to
A falling off in bootleggers' business
due to hot weather.
Bootleg customers don't drink as
much this season of the year as they
do when the weather is cold" one
law enforcement observer remarked.
