An airport, according to officials, prominent in the Bristol city gov ernment, should be in great favor with the voters at the coming city elections on next Monday. There are other certain officials who frown when such an opening for an aerial highway for the city is mentioned. Of course, the measure is entirely up to those who operate the tiny levers at the polls. Among those who are strong boosters for the air port are Judge William J. Malone and Rene Taillon, both of whom have spent many many hours soar ing through the cool breozcs of the upper space. Others include J. Er- nest Andrew, president of the local Chamber of Commerce, Morton C. Trcadway, Edward Ingraham and Fuller F. Barnes, q trio of men who are prominent in the direction of several of the Bristol industries.
 The eighty-four acre field. located in East Bristol, is in an ideal To- cality and besides has natural drainage. The land would cost the city S45, ,00O flat, the carrying charges will have been already paid by three of the citys leading citizens. The vast eXpanse, known at HotChkiss field, is crossed by Red Stone Hill road. In case the voters of Bristol accept the field the road will he re moved, without any great expense to the city. Telephone poles and wires, which also cross the property would be eliminated without eX- pcnse.
 Although q great many of the local voters approve the proposal. fl is also a well established fact that a large number oppose it.
 Governor Trumbull Comments City
 In a letter written to the local Chamber of Commerce, Governor John H. Trumbun personally com mcndcd the city for keeping in step with other progressive cities by con- sidering an airport, which he says will he a great commercial asset to Bristol. It reads:
 Chamber of Commerce.
 Bristol, Conn.
 Gentlemen:
 It has been brought to my atten- ton that Bristol is considering the advisability of establishing an air port. This is in keeping with the natural progressiveness of Bristol, and l sincerely hope the project will be speedily accomplished.
 The time is coming, and very ra- pidly, when every community will require an airport. In a very few years a community that has not an adequate airport will find itself ;n much the same position that do many of Connocticut's towns which are not located on a railway.
 Tremendous strides are constant ly made in aviation, not only in the construction and design of aircraft. but also in the many uses which are daily being found for employ ing this newer method of transpor- tation. We of New England can be greatly benefited by air connection, and I personally believe the air in dustry will prove 10 be q big factor in establishing closer contact be- tween industrial New England and the rest of the country.
 I am very glad indeed that the airport movement has been started in Bristol and I sincerely hope that the outcome will be an airport that will he credit 10 Bristol which la internationally known for its pro- ducts. I am sure it will be a great

 The question of purchase to be voted upon is destined to rival inc race for seats in the local govern mental body. It is thought that Bristol has large number who are inclined to be lair minded" anl who will poll their vote in the af- frmatlye while another group, con- sidering the expenditure. will cast their ballot negatively. A record vote, both on the airport project and the school consolidation ques- tion, is anticipated

Red Men in the industrial life Of

by Secretary West.
The rapid development of the

for the services of the Indian which
presents a favorable opportunity for
employment.
"The situation today is favorable
to make immediate progress toward
a solution of the problem by estab-
fishing the Indian as a wage Garner,
gaining competence for himself
he added. when an Indian reaches
this stage he need no longer be a
ward of the government He and
his children take their places as
normal members of the body poll
tic. So far as he is concerned the
Indian problem has been solved"
Secretary West said it was his
belief that 1.-The decades of super

exercised over the Indians has de-
veloped them to the point where
they are prepared for a steadily in
creasing participation in the indus
trial life of the nation"
