the airplane was still an expert
ment, the financial returns from
aeronautical projects were only too
often less than the cost of opera
ton.
Consequently the early develop
ment was largely sponsored By
the Government, with the result
that the planes were designed for
use in warfare rather than for
safety and economy of operation.
Extreme safety in the military ma
chine must be sacrificed for ma
neuverability. Economy of OPP

penditures.
On the other hand, an airline or
ganized without regard to an eX-
ternal income is in a position to ex-
pand along with the demands for
service. If the traffic becomes
great enough to require more or
bigger planes, larger profit en-
sues, instead of an increased sub
sidy being required or the fare be-
ing raised to hold down the de-
mand.
The airplane has now advanced
to the stage where the demands OF
commerce are sufficient to war.

CHAPTER XIV

After rolling the chute into its
pack started towards the nearest
light. / soon came to road, walk
Led about mile to the town of Co.
VEIL ILL.,, and telephoned to st.
Louis. The only information l
could obtain in regard to the
crashed plane was from one of
group of farmers in the general
store, who stated that his neigh
Dor had heard the plane crash but
could only guess at its general di-
rection.
An hours search proved without
avail | left instructions to place
a guard over the mail in case the
plane was found before l returned
and went to Chicago for another
ship. On arriving over Covell the
next morning 1 found the wreck
with a small crowd gathered
around it, less than 500 feet in
back of the house where l had left
my parachute the night before.
The nose and the wheels had
struck the ground at the same
time, and after sliding along for
about seventy-five feet it had piled
up in a pasture beside hedge
fence. One wheel had come off
and was standing inflated against
the wall on the inside of a hog
house a hundred yards further on.
1t had gone through two fences and
the wall of the house.
The wings were badly splintered,
bnt the tubular fuselage, although
badly bent in places, had held its
general form even in the mail pit.
The parachute from the flare was
hanging on the tailskid.
There were three sacks of mail
IN the plane. One, a full bag from
st. Louis, had been split open and
some of the mail oil-soaked but
;legible. The other two bags were
only partially full and were I'M
damaged.
1t was about at this time, or
shortly after, that l first began to
think about New York-Paris |
flight. But before discussing the
events leading up to that flight |
1T might be well to say few words
about the future possibilities of
commercial aviation.
In comparing aviation to other
forms of transportation it should
be borne in mind that the flying
machine has been in existence less
than twenty-five years. The Wright
brothers made their first flight at
Kitty Hawk, N. c., in 1903. Yet
in 1927 air lines are operating reg
-nlarly over long distances and und-
GER all conditions.
The first airplane was a frail
machine, capable of operating only
IN good weather. Even with the
utmost care flying in the early days
of aviation was dangerous pro-
fession at best.
Today the properly operated
commercial airline compares ia
vorably in safety with any other
means of transportation.
Shipping has reached its pres
ent stage after thousands of years
of development. Railroads less
than a century ago stopped their
trains at night on the grounds that
operation in darkness was unsafe.
Automobiles, after, nearly forty
years of progress, are still depend
.ent on good roads.
The airplane, in less than quar-
ter of a century, has taken its place
among the most important meth
DDS of travel, and now, where time
is paramount and territory in ac-
cessible, it stands at, the head of
its competition.
Development up to the present
time has been largely military. The
cost of aeronautical engineering
and construction has been so great

rant the building Of planes with
out regard to military usefulness.
And with the advent of the purely
commercial airplane comes an
economy of operation which places
operating organizations on a sound
financial basis.
Undoubtedly in a few years the
United States will be covered with
network of passenger, mail and
express lines.
Transatlantic service is still in
the future. Extensive research
and careful study will be required
before any regular schedule be.

design.
Commercial aviation in the Unit
ed States has been retarded in
the past by lack of Government
subsidy, but the very lack of that
subsidy will be one of its greatest
assets in the future. A subsidized
air line is organized with the sub
sidy as very large consideration.
The organization exists on the
subsidy and it's growth is regu-
lated by the subsidy. Years will
be required before the point of
independence is reached and the
receipts become larger than the ex-

AIRPLANE NEWS

Pilot Noel Wien with his Stin- son Detroiter cabin plane left at about ten o'clock yesterday morn 1 ing for Candle, carrying as passen- gers, Dr. F. J. O'Hara, Senator elect Richard N. Sundquist, Repre- sentative-elect Alfred j.. Lomen, and D. E. Crowley
 The plane returned to Nome at about three o'clock. carrying Dr. O'Hara who carefully examined in- to the situation and reports that ,ae situation is in no wise alarm ing as there are only 3 cases at Candle, two of which are chicken pox and one smallpox, but all of these cases are clearing up nicely. The reported cases at Deering are clearing up nicely.
 There ere no cases at Kc;zebue. or Elephant Point.
 Dr. O'Hara says that vaccine and all other necessary medical sup plies have been dispatched to the camps to the northwa:d of Candle and Deerins, and he feels that tie situation gives no cause for alarm.
 This afternoon the plane took off for Candle with two passengers, Frank Redwood, and W. D. Miller, but owing to the poor visibility had to return after short time. In making landing on Snake river one wheel broke through the ice, brea king the axle and slightly dam aging one wing. Repairs are being rushed and the plane will be in service again shortly.
