there; wouldn't wave of horror sweep the country,
and wouldn't we resolve, at matter what cost to
take whatever steps necessary to prevent such
thing from happening again?
Undoubtedly Yet, in the year 1923, tragedy OF
similar size visited the countryand we ignored 1t! 1t
was thing that killed than 27OoO people OF all
ages and caused an economic loss of OOO-and
we didn't paw any attention to it As result, it will
inevitably be duplicated this year.

and It claimed its victims in almost every county IN the
Union II killed upward Of $1,000 people and injured
nearly million more.
Because it was before our eyes every day we Wefeh
mortified by it. Because the deaths and nJ ures were
scattered all over the country and all the length OF
the wear we didn't realize its horror. Consequently
we didn't do anything in particular to prevent repe-
tition-and as result the toll this year will be even
higher than it in 1928
The automobiles themselves are far safer now tiiah

they are less liable skid they sturdler and tney

But because we don't realize the seriousness OF the

drastic legislation to regulate traffic and weed out the
unfit drivers. We need to expand our highway system

We need to make the traffic problem one OF our major
issues and keep it that way until it is solved

Some of aviation's most noteworthy performances

Far up in Alaska there are commercial pilots who
part of their regular jobs do things that would make
them famous if our attention were focused them
They writing tale of romantic adventure for
that distant land tale thrilling and exciting
anything that occurred during the days of '9S
short time ago two Alaskan flyers, Noel Wien
and Calvin Cripe, took off from Fairbanks, Alaska,
and made 23Oomie round trip flight to Cape North
Siberia, in sngle-motored plane-not as stunt,
but as regular commercial job The flight is worth
reading about.
On the outward trip their plane carried half a ton
of food supplies for the trappers and trades at Cape
North The flight not particularly perilous until
they reached the Bering Strait but from then their
lives depended their sturdy Wasp engine for there
safe landing place all the rest of the 600
miles to Cape North.
At Cape North they landed makeshift field
that had been cleared in the snow. The temperature
was 40 below zero. The next morning, after unload
ing their cargo they took half ton of furs valued
at S150,000 for the return trip.
The plane nearly cracked up the rough hum
mock-strewn landing field. Then, once in the air,
an oil vent froze, and GRIPPE had to keep reaching out
the window every minutes to open it with his knife
So the flyers headed for Nome and stopped there over
night continuing back to Fairbanks next day.
That flight was really remarkable. 23oo-mlie
