Passenger Plane Missing

~ CHhteU Pf6SS
SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 28.-Mys-
terry today still surrounded the fate
of the giant Ford monoplane which
was lost on a Sight from Vancou-
yer, B. c., to Seattle. The search
continued today.
No wreckage CT the craft had been
found in the Straits of Juan De
Fuca, where it was believed to have
fallen. Aviators and seamen feared
the plane had dived into the sea
with its six passengers aboard. 1t
might have struck the water in "a
fog, they said. Spots Of oil had
been seen on the water at one point
along the monoplane's route.

who quite recently determined to
become an aviator.
Pressed for time, he decided to
try to learn during his luncheon
hours, and succeeded in gaining
his pilots license in no more than
twelve half-hour lessons. 1t is thus
obvious that the ordinary athletic
girl who is capable of driving a
light car is equally capable of learn
ing to fly a light plane in twenty
half-hours of dual control instruc-
tion.'

/ tail. There is a slight scale variance
but the correct detail of the ground
surface more than offsets this ele-
ment.
But the greatest job for aircraft
is in passenger, freight, express and
mail transport, things which have
become big factors within a short
period of time.
Air passenger lines are springing
up almost daily and the demand for
commercial ships is almost unbe-
lievable. One passenger line on the
West coast has just ordered fleet
of tri-motored planes to put into
passenger service. This company
operates coaStwise service and is
preparing to put into operation
continental service.
100 Types Produced
The popularity of the air plane as
a passenger machine is emphasized,
perhaps, in the fact that in a recent
issue of one aviatiin magazine there
were advertisements OF fifty-three
flying schools. Look through any OF
the leading aviation magazines and
you will find no less than fifty or
,seventy-five advertisements of air.
craft manufacturers. This alone
proves that the use of the CONNER
cial plane is decidedly on the in
crease.
At present there are more than
100 different types of airplanes be-
ing manufactured in the United
States-and the manufacturers are
selling their product.
The old transformer" lone
aviator that made the country fairs
and carries passengers at a certain
feels still seen at times, but is fast
becoming outciassed by organized
companies that are equipped with
more modern machines.
Faster Planes Coming
The air-passenger miles flown
every year far out-distance other
forms of travel on the passenger
mile basis, Government statistics
show. A passenger mile is the
transportation Of one passenger one
mile. The speed of the plane
doubles that of the fastest surface
machine and at the same time car
ries its occupants with more COM
fort and just as much safety.
But the plane of today is a slow
moving craft in comparison with
that we will see in the near future:
During the last five years aircraft
speed has been increased % per cent
and on The basis of this it is safe to
predict that within the next five
years it will be a commonplace thing
for an air passenger to breakfast in
New York, lunch in st. Louis and
have dinner in San Francisco.

flights have been made, but it will

PREDICTS CITY
LANDING FIELD
ON STATION TOP
C. of C. Secretary Declares
Planes Must Land
Near Trains.

A downtown airplane landing
field atop the union station or some
other building in future years, was
the prediction made by Paul H.
Moore, Chamber of Commerce avia-
ton secretary, in a talk before the
Service Club Monday at the Lin
coin.
"In a few years some such down.
town landing place will be neces-
Sary in order to make quick trans
fers from plane to train, or to rush
business men to the business dis
trict," Moore said.
"In addition, another landing
field several miles from the city
would be needed for larger planes
and for servicing."
Indianapolis Not Behind
Indianapolis is not behind other
cities of it's size in preparing for the
future of aviation, Moore said.
"Most of the larger cities of the
country are still cropping around,
striving to vision the needs of the
future in establishing their mu-
nicipal fields.
"a municipal airport is compar-
able to an ocean harbor. A seaside
city without a harbor is not on the
route of ocean-going ships. The
same is true of airportS.
eff everyone in Indianapolis
would get behind the municipal air
port project, Indianapolis soon
would have one of the best airports
in the country"
Describes Progress
Moore described progress being
made in aviation. Recently, he said.
a plane carrying forty passengers
stopped at the Chicago municipal
field. The company that made the
plane is planning a 100 passenger
plane.
Germany, he said, is building a
200 passenger plane for trans-At-
lantic flights, passengers living in
the wings of the ship
England is building two huge
dirigibles. One of these, for mill
tary use, will carry four six-inch
guns and four airplanes, which will
land on the top of the dirigible, be-
ing lowered inside the giant bal
loon by elevators.
Moore, who has just returned
from st. Louis where he obtained
estimates on maintenance of an
airport, said st. Louis has not
reached definite conclusions on a
municipal airport.
Planes Light Field
"Their present field, on which
they are to spend $2,00O,sO0, author
lied by the public at a recent cleo
ton, is about twenty miles from the
heart of the city," he said.
ALREADY they realize this is too
far away, and while proposing to
go ahead with the 100000 i'm
provement project, they are consid-
ering another municipal airport
nearer the CITY,"

older modes of travel-thuS the air.
plane has brought about radical
changes in the operation of surface,
under surface, elevated and water
routes in use before the advent Of
winged vehicles.
The adaptability of the airplane
to commercial usage has set the
great traffic experts of our country
to revising the various problems of
transportation. And, as a result,
some of the railroad lines and some
of the steamship companies already
are using the plane to help speed
travel on their respective systems.
Planes leave ships at sea and
speed passengers, mail or cargo to
port long before the ship itself can
arrive; the railroads transfer night
passengers to day planes and ar
range connection with another night
train, thus giving more speed to
land travel.
Sell by Plane
Because already there is a net
work Of airlines over the United
States extending from coast to coast
and from Canada to Mexico, and be-
cause the lines already are beginning
to draw heavily on the revenue Of
existing surface transportation
lines, the railroads and the shipping
interests have found these measures
necessary. The straight air lines,
however, go the old system one bet
ter-they are able to reach places
not accessible to surface lines.
The uses to which a plane may be
put seems to have no limit.
Advertising firms ali over the
country are profiting with the flying
machine And even skywriting has
been patented so that only one con-
Germ has a right to make letters In
the sky with an airplane.
Not long ago leading cigar COM
pany fitted out a large passenger
plane as flying cigar store and at
the various ports of call the store"
sold over the counter an average OF
5000 worth of cigars daily.
A cigaret manufacturer fitted a
plane with a loud speaker and used
it over the country to inform the
world of their products excellent
qualities.
Used to Kill Pests
Then, too, the plane is taking its
place in agriculture. In the South
several companies have been or
ganized to spray cotton and other
crops with an-insect powder in order
to kill pests. In this work the plane
does in thirty minutes the work
that would require days under the
old methods of spraying.
A drug store in one of our cities
is using the plane for out-of-town
deliveries, and scattered over the
country are hundreds of privately
owned planes that may be hired
for delivery service.
Aerial mapping is another bust
ness that is proving quite a success,
for the Photographic maps obtain
