NASHPROMO7ES
AD MANAGER

r. KENoSHA. Wis, March 6.An.
Motors Company of the appoiA1-
of advertising and assistant sales
manager.
In releasing this announcement,
C. H. Bliss, Nash sales manager,
said: "Mr. Travers has been ad-
vertising manager OF the Nash Mo-
tors Company practically since the
formation of the company and this
promotion is we'll merited by reason
of his capable and loyal devotion
to the interests of the company.
In his conduct of the advertis-
ing department, he has shown ex-
ceptional ability in co-ordinatina the
advertising to sales requirements
and his new work Is entirely IA
miliar to him. Long identified as
one of the most able advertising
managers in the industry. he now
will enter more intensively and di-
rectly into Nash sales activity, but
at the same time Nash advertising
will continue to retain the benefit
of his long experience in this field
as he will also act as director of
advertising.
The post OF advertising manager
will be filled by r. r. Babcock,
who has for more than ten years
been an executive of the Green.
Fulton, Cunningham Company, our
advertising agency. During this
ten.year period, Mr.. Babcock has
specialized upon Nash advertising
work and is familiar with Nash
policies and practices in all phases
of advertising effort. He is well
known and respected throughout
the advertising business and among
the newspaper men of the country.

ROAD MEN WILL
AID AIRPORT
BY f. e. DUFFY

Paved runways Tor the taking of
and landing of airplanes. well-paved
thoroughfares leading to airports,
ard paved parking areas will mark
the up.to.date city OF the future.
Recently the first concrete air
plane runway In America was dedi-
Gated at the Ford airport near De-
troit. Last week the country's
second hard surfaced runway was
dedicated at the Grand Central air
terminal at Glendale, Calf. Rigid
runways are planned for other air
ports such as that of st. Louis. the
Barren Island port Of New York
City, Wayne county. Mich. -and ID
on.
Indications are that the Army
will soon be authorized to construct
hard surfaces at all Army airports.
z Obviously a well-krit transpor.
tation scheme cannot overlook ava
ton, for the art and business OF
flying Is daily assuming a greater
economic value. Nest OF tnls
growth has taken place in tine
short span of two years.
The value of the airplane lies in
the saving Of time. This means
that communities desiring to make
the most of aviation must provide
facilities that will reduce the time
of travel to and from the airport.
Smooth pavements of ample width
must be constructed, pavements
that will comfortably accommodate
the heavy volume of traffic that
may be expected when Lindbergh
comes to town. when special events
are to be staged, or evenings ana
week-ends when there are many
spectators at the airport.
There is d. crying need" for ade
quate turning out places and places
to park. No matter whether 1t be
a. county fair. or an athletic con-
test, held in some outlying spot,
the American motorists usually
finds himself caught in a traffic
tie-up largely because of the inabil-
ity of motorists ahead of him to
get off the road. This is due to
narrow turn-outs and muddy or
poorly arranged parking areas.
This situation can be reTnedied,
particularly in connection with air
ports for new developments give a
wide latitude. Entrances to the
airport should be hard.surfaced and
of bounteous width, and this
paving should merge into a wide,
hard-surfaced parking plaza.

active duty training period or about to
complete this period Of active training,
many of them are turning their
thoughts to the probabilities of their
promotion to the next higher grade. AS
all are familiar more or less with the
regulations governing appointment and
promotion of Reserve officers, it Is need
less to discourse on that subject here,
but local Reserve officers will be inter-
ested to learn that change has been
made in Army regulations 140-5, per-
tanning to the appointment, reappoint-
ment, promotion, active duty OF Reserve
officers, etc.
In time of peace, however, no officer
will be promoted or appointed to any
grade in the Officers Reserve Corps
higher than that of major unless he
SHALL in addition to meeting satisfac-
torily the various requirements, have
passed such special examinations as the
Secretary of War may direct. This re-
striction will not apply, however, in the
case of promotion or appointment Of
any, Reserve officer who has had World
War experience as commissioned OFF,
Ger between April 6, 1917, and June 30,
1919, in the United States Army.
This new change in the regulations
also prescribes that no promotion will

hours of credit during the preceding
five years or credits at the rate Of 40

The following local Reserve officers,
having accepted reappointment in the

privilege of active duty or assignment,
are relieved from assignment to units

ALBANIAN FARMS
MAY BE PARTITIONED
Proposal Agitated to Relieve Condi.
lions Among Peasantry
Who Till Land.

TIRANA, Albania CAp. - Albania,
struggling under the feudal system
whereby land is owned by the few and
worked by the many, is debating a pro-
posed law which. would split up the
vast holdings of the "begs," or rich
landowners and give farms to the peas
antry.
At present the landlords have undis-
puted legal possession of all arabic land
in the kingdom. The peasants who cul-
tivate it do just enough work to produce
the minimum crops demanded by their
feudal chiefs plus enough to keep their
own bodies and souls together.
Although the countrys chief foods are
of agricultural origin and there are
only 100000 people in the whole realm,
the native farms do not come close to
meeting the demands. Almost every
year grain must The imported from
America, Australia or Canada.
One reason is that the soil Is poor.
Another is that 1t Is incompletely culti-
waited. A third Is that railways, roads
and other market facilities are lacking.
Division Of the land among the pow
erty-stricken peasantry would not. of
course, cure all these ills. But it is be-
ing agitated as a necessary first step
toward making Albania self-supporting
