The transoceanic flights of last summer will, APP
parc,:! be s:~pcssed by similar ventures this year.
Already the Southern Cross has gained fame nearly
equal to that of the Spirit Of St Louis Half dozen
expeditions waiting for good weather fly
ing the Atlantic Two aerial expeditions TO the
South Pole planned.
At the same time one begins to hear repetition of
the complaints that raised after the Dole race
last summer. People are wondering if these ocean
flights anything. We being told that gallant
lives being sacrificed for good purpose; that
last summers ventures did nothing to advance the
progress Of aviation, and caused good many needless
tragedies.
The best to that sort Of talk is contained in
the fact that National Air Transport, nc is buying
seven big cabned monoplanes to provide express pas
sengcr service between Chicago Toledo Detroit Cleve
land and New York.
There is no direct connection between the beginning
Of this service and the flights, to be sure Yet
it is safe bet that without the flights of the
past Ia months National Air Transport would not now
be offering this passenger air line.
The flights did more than demonstrate that
good flyer, given good plane and good luck can fly
across the Practical avators knew that already
They served to convince the public that airplane
ride, by itself, is risky than trip in auto
mobile. They made the public air minded, use Lind
berghs expression nothing else earth would have
done.
When flyer sets out over the ocean, the watching
public knows that he is rskng his life. leaky feed
line, defect in his ignition, sudden adverse
winds may cost him his life. This is well known, and
If his plane is heard from again the general
public understands.
Yet the very fact that he dared start proves that
daylight hop land is not risky proposition. The
things that would bring death to plane the
would not be fatal land flight; they would simply
force it to land. That fact has been drummed home
thoroughly in the last year. 1t has become plain that
the risks of flying caused by the and
not by any dangers inherent in aviation.
That has paved the way for commercial passenger
aviation. 1t has made the public ready to travel by
air. The flghts-the failures we'll as the
successes-have borne fruit The deaths of such peo-
pie Captain Echwad, Mildred Doran and Lloyd
Bertaud were not in vain.

acres of soil each day. One man was
doing the work of four.
There are more than 10000 sur

to figures at the state agricultural
college. These surplus horses rep
resent tremendous economic loss.
They can be put to work if the farm

break out of the hitch. At Williston,
