WHITING PREDICTS
AERIAL PROGRESS
Commercial AeronautiCS Ex-
pected to Become Part of
Industry During 1929.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Commercial aeronautics promises to
be established as an integral part of
American industry and transportation
during 1929, IN the opinion of Secretary
Of Commerce Whiting.
Discussing the Governments program
of cooperation for the coming year in
the field of civil aviation, the Secretary
yesterday predicted a number of i'm
provements, including the extensions of
airways. increased installation of lights
and other air navigation aids and the
experimental works of the Bureau of
Standards in aiding manufacturers to
improve power plants and increase sta
hility
Commercial aeronautics in the
United States has been definitely re-
moved from the realm of experimental
ton and established as a fact" Mr..
Whiting said.
Perhaps we can best visualize the
present status Of the industry" he con-
tinued from available statistics which
show licenses granted to $500 pilots
With 10000 student pilots in training;
arports of all classes numbering 1900;
$500 planes operating; $4,000 miles
flown daily; $4,000 passengers carried in
airway operation on regular schedule
during 1928; air mail averaging about
470,CO0 pounds a month; $500 miles of
improved airwayS in operation, with an
additional 4,600 miles proposed for the
near future; production of aeronauticsl
equipment expected to double the 1927
output valued at $21 100000"
The aviation field was continuing to
attract large amount of private capi-
tai for new enterprises, the Secretary
added and had drawn the attention of
some of the countrys ablest men. In
view of the situation, he declared that
the Commerce Department had planned
an enlarged program for the early
months of 1929 to guide the promotion
and regulation of commercial flying.

POSTAGE CUT AIDS
AIR MAIL VOLUME
Glover Reveals Amount
Doubled in Recent Months,
but Loss Is Increased.
BY the Associated Press.


Decrease of air mail postage rates
from 10 to cents an ounce has dou-
bled the poundage carried, but cut re-
turns to the Government in half, and
postal officials see little hope of ever
operating this business without loss.
This was the recent testimony, made
public today. of w. Irving Glover. Sec
ond Assistant Postmaster General, be-
for a House subcommittee in urging a
deficiency appropriation OF S5,000,OO
to take care of air mail transportation
this fiscal year.
Glover said under the old rate 2l4,000
pounds of mail were carried by planes
last July. and that the figure jumped
to 419 900 pounds the following month,
when the scent rate took effect. He
placed the loss to the Government at
from $4,000 900 to $7,000,000 year, and
said that while the receipts under the
new rate equaled those under the for
mer, the expense went up, as more mail
was carried
Chairman Anthony of the subcom-
mittee said he understood many OF the
air mail routes had become profitable
and asked why the Government should
continue the business at loss.
Glover replied that permission had
been granted the Postmaster General
by Congress to reduce the rates paid
air mail contractors after they had
been in effect two years, and that since
this period expired on January / many
operators now making money would be
called in for conferences on possible
reductions.
He said that in the first set up of the
service operators bid the maximum Of
SO a pound but he thought bids would
be lower when new routes are advertised
for
While reduced rates paid contractors
and an increase in the passenger busi-
ness eventually would cut down the
Federal expense, Glover said that he
was afraid the air mail never would be
a self supporting proposition for Uncle
Sam
"It is the same way with the ham
ding of mail by railroads" he added.
