PUBLIC CROWS
CONFIDENT OF
AVIATION

NEW YORK, Dec. 1I.-Aviation
enjoyed It's biggest year I'm 1929.
In the twelve months Just
passed commercial. military and
private flying succeeded in max
ing q place for itself In the world
that was undreamed Of q few
years ago.
Perhaps the most significant
thing accomplished by aviation in
the last year was It's winning Of
public confidence. Airplanes are
now almost universally regarded
as . safe and pleasant means OF
travel.
It is q certainty that during
1929 more people rode in air
planes than ever before. New
passenger and mail and freight
lines were established; an ex-
traordinarily large number Of pri-
vate flying clubs came into exist
el1ce and manufacturers Of conse-
Quence reported greatly increased
production.
Many Factors
Numerous factors combined to
increase public respect for avia-
ton, and as q consequence there
are many laurel wreaths to be-
stow.
Spectacular and daring feats
were many. Included In this cate
CORY we're Lindbergh's flights to
South America; Capt. Frank
Hawks record-breaking coast-to-
coast hops, the performance of
many skilled and famous flyers
at the National Air Races held at
Cleveland; the marvellous distance
record nonstop flight Of Capt.
Dteudonne Coste and Maurice
Bellonte from Paris to TsitSibar,
Manchuria; the flight Of the Rus
sian goodwill plane, Land Of the
SoViets, from Moscow to New
York; the re-fueling accomplish
ment Of the Army plane, CUES
ton Mark" the subsequent record
Tor this style Of endurance flying
established by Forrest O'Brine
and Dale "Red" jackson: the en-
dIrance solo flight made by Eli
nor Smith, 18-year-old girl flyer,
and other stunts and projects
too numerous to mention.
Air mileage flown by commercial
air transport companies in the
United States registered an In.
crease Of so per cent over 1928,
with the figures for the last few
months Of the year not yet COM
piled.
Fly S,O0O,O0 Miles
No less than 100000 miles
were flown by transport airplanes
In the six-month period ended
July 81, compared with Sbout S.
00n,OO0 miles in the first half of
1923. If this rate Of increase
continues until January land 1t
Is q safe bet that 1t will 1t means
that American airways have flown
one-third more miles than the COM
bined mileage of England, France
and Germany in 1928.
At the present time there are
approximately 10000 miles of air
ways lighted for night flying and
1,377 airports, exclusive of Gov
ernment, military and private
fields in operation.
Decided increases were reported
in the number Of companies manu-
featuring airplaneS and the num-
Der Of licensed and unlicensed
pilots who are flying. The latest
Department of Commerce figures
reveal that there are now 1850
companies engaged in one phase
or another Of the aircraft industry,
6.585 licensed pilots and 5,673 un-
licensed pilots.

of the connections and bypass route!

which will ultimately be included In

says, serves necessarily as subdivision

that the layout OF streets within a pro

BILL TO REGULATE
SIGNS INTRODUCED
Measure Would Prevent Mar.
ring Roadside Beauty in
Maryland.
BY a Staf Correspondent OF The Star.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, March 13.-Regu-
lation and control of billboards and
signboards in the State OF Maryland is
sought in bill introduced in the House
of Delegates yesterday by Kent r. Null
likin of Laurel. The bill provides for
licensing by the commissioner of motor
vehicles of all such signs, permits to
be issued only after written application,
giving the proposed location, size, dis
lance from a grade crossing, If within
800 feet. material to be used and dis
lance from the highway.
The license fee is fixed in the measure
at Is cents a square yard, measured
around the outside edge, and the fee is
to be an annual one. Issuance of the
license is made mandatory. unless 1t IS
deemed to be hazard to traffic.
If after the erection of sign. COM
plant is. made that it is hazard to
traffic, the bill provides for public
hearing and if the hazard is found to
exist, notice must be given the owner
to remove it. Failure to act within III
days would then permit the State au-
thorities to move the sign.
Mr.. Mullikin has had the bill under
consideration for some time, and sent It
to Baltimore lawyers for review prior
to it's submission to the Legislature.
Representatives of the signboard or
carnations, he said. approached him
in an effort to stop the proposed legis-
lation, pointing out that they were
themselves eliminating dangerous signs.
