Washington, Nov. l9.-With approx
imately seventy passenger air lines
serving virtually all important cities,
aside from air mail and express opera
tons, aviation has gained a strong
foothold In the field Of transportation.
according to the air travel division Of
the American Automobile association.
This tremendous development iii
aviation has largely been brought
about through increased air-minded-
ness" says the A. A. A. air travel di-
vision. land the airplane miles sched-
uled daily for all services now aver
age 86.342 miles.
I'm order to accommodate this air
travel airports are being established
In all parts of the country. At the
present time there arr 468 commercial
and Az municipal airports. while
more than 1000 are proposed In vari-
Ous sections.
There are now approximately 5000
planes in civil operation in the coun-
try. and the growth Of aviation can
easily be seen from the fact that this
represents an increase III number Of
200 per cent since Lindbergh spanned
the Atlantic. early in 1926. Handling
these 5000 planes are more than
10000 approved pilots. In addition,
the department OF commerce has APP
proved approximately $4,000 student
permits"
The A. A. A. pointed out that af-
filiated motor clubs In all parts OF the
country, In keeping with the national
program Of an all-incluStve travel
service, are establishing air travel d.
visions. These agencies have joined
forces with municipalities to promote
airports. are conducting air tours to
stimulate travel. and assist members

The statement continues:
Although there are a few sections
in the country not served by plane.
there is hardly an area untouched BY
an official or proposed airway. There
were 36.293 miles Of airWayS operated
on August l. and the mileage Is being
gradually extended.
The important phase Of air travel
is the time saved through quick trans
portation. and the cost Is considered
on this basis. A man whose income Is
5000 a year or more can not afford
to fail to make use Of the facilities Of
air travel as they are offered through
out the nation today. according to
one official of ar important air trans

can be made by air-rail In a hours,

CAPITOL THEATRE

A roadshow attraction that will es-
tablish new records is Flight" the
Columbia all-talking aviation film
that opened at the Capitol Theatre
last night with Jack Holt. Lila Lee
and Ralph Graves In the leading
roles. Frank r. Capra directed.
It Is the classic Of the screens air
dramas. A powerful story Of love and
honor in the lives Of two buddies in
the flying division Of the United
States Marine Corps. 1t Is replete with
daring action and thrilling moments.
The love interest running through
the breath-taking situations is vivid
and realistic. The close-ups taken
above the clouds are aWe-inspiring.
This all-talking sensation Is by far
the best aviation picture yet pro-
duced. Don't miss It.
