me per capita demand for dairy products is in

however, shows that the actual increase in production
Is slight, for in that section the milk instead of being
manufactured into farm butter, is now being made
into creamery butter, cheese, condensed milk powder
and other products. the quantity of which is now as
certainable," he said. "The increase in the manufac-
ture of these products in the South barely offsets the
decrease IN other sections Of the country. especially in
the older sections. There is a shifting Of production
Of the various products from one part Of the country
TO another, and not an increase which would threaten
overproduction."
The principal factor contributing to the shift Of the
Industry southwark is the lower cost Of feed produc-
tion, better climatic conditions and higher yields per

AVIATION PLACED
ON BUSINESS BASIS
Two Deals Assure Develop
n1ent of Air Express and
Plane Firm.
BY J. c. RoYLE.
ial Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, october 24.-Aviation
is on a business basis. This was shown
conclusively today by announcements
Of the acquisition of control of the Fox
ker Aircraft Corporation by the Western
Air Express, mo, and by the placing OF
$5,00O,000 or more into the securities OF
the Boeing Airplane Co.
But while the day Of the flying cir
Gus" is over, aviation is not yet beyond
the dangers which have attended new
industries, such as as electric refrigera-
ton, radio and others.
1t is lust Is wears ago that the Wright
brothers developed the first successful
flying machine. Today, according to the
aeronautics branch of the Department
of Commerce, there are American
scheduled air routes flying 81 420 miles
a day. This far exceeds the activities
Of any other nation.
In 1927 air transport mileage of the
world was 20,234,660 of which the
United States accounted for 6,009,226.
This was ,two-thirdS as many miles as
were flown by French and German air
transport, and the total value Of all
air products was $21,I01,853. In this
year 1t is believed these figures will
be far surpassed. officials Of the two
services estimate the Army and Navy
will spend $19214,550 this year, and for
1929 the estimates aggregate $39, $50 600.
The PENNSYLVANIA Railroad and
others have already made hook-up
with airplane manufacturers for COM
bined air and rail croSS-continent
transportation, and it is indicated other
railroads will conclude similar arrange
ments shortly.
The Fokker company, absorbed by
Western Air Express and others, has
been particularly active in development
Of large tri-motored planes from de-
signs of the Dutch inventor whose
name the company bears. 1t is under
stood the present orders on hand tax
the capacity of the company's plants
1t Is said to have orders for 80 big
planes. The management is experienced
and the concern has been active since
1923.
The Western Air Express is generally
conceded to be an outstanding operator
Of aircraft. 1t operates air mail routes
from Los Angeles to Salt Lake City and
between Denver and Cheyenne. This
company was selected by the Guggen-
helm Fund to operate model air line
between Los Angeles and San Francisco
and Los Angeles and Salt Lake City. |
The company is closely owned and earn |
ing statements are not available, but it
is reported generous dividends have been
paid regularly and large part of the
profits have been plowed back into the
company.
The Boeing Airplane Co. has been an
important contractor to the Nevv, MAX
ing models for carving on shipboard
The concern also has produced most
successful mail plane designs, which
have been in use on the Boenig Air
Transport route.

NEW YORK, October 24.-The cot
ton market opened steady at decline
of to 8 points under Southern selling
and liquidation promoted by a more
favorable weather map than expected,
relatively easy Liverpool cables and talk
of heavy private ginning figures De-
cember sold off to 1915 and March to
1895, but there was considerable trade
buying and the talk of heavy ginningS
was offset to some extent by reports
that they represented a large per-
centage of the crop, while there may
have been little buying on unfavor-
able features in the weekly weather re-
port. The demand was sufficient to
steady the market and after selling off
to 19.45 December rallied to 1919, with
the general market showing net de-
clines of to points at the end of
the first half hour.
One Of the private reports published
early estimated the ginnings prior to
October Is at 8,526,000 bales. There
may have been some selling on these
figures, but their effect was modified by
another report placing the ginnings at
1897 900 bales, and the market was
steady late in the morning on trade
buying and covering. At midday active
months were about net unchanged to
3 points lower.
