12-hour schedule were predicted by air
craft authorities in papers read here
last night before the Southern Califor-
MIA section of the Society of Automo-
tive Engineers and the Aeronautical
Chamber of Commerce of America.
w. z. Boeing, president of the Boe-
ing Airplane & Transport Co., ex-
pressed belief that night flying, aided
by radio telephone connections between
plane and ground and by radio direc-
tional beaconS. soon would become as
safe and common as day flying. He
pointed out that the airway between
New York and the Pacific Coast already
is lighted and that pilots over this one
line fly more night hours than all the
air pilots of Europe.
Horace M. Hanshue, president of
Western Air Express. said only two es-
Sentials, an air-minded public and
planes that can cruise at 200 miles per
hour, are necessary to bring about a 12-
hour coast-to-coast schedule. He pre-
dicted commercial planes soon would be
built to fly steadily at 200 miles per
hour,

The QUICK EASY WAY
TO CLEAN ENAMEL

Buy a bottle Of Old Witch and you
buy freedom from household drudgery.
You're all through with hard rubbing
and securing. Now you simply wash
the dirt away. Get kitchen and bath
room enamel and tile glistening clean
in no time at all-with less effort
than you'd believe possible.
A liquid, Old Witch begins to clean
at once. So much more convenient
than ordinary cleansers. No stirring
the cleaning water. No standing idly
by while o powder slowly dissolves.
And no danger of scratching.
Old Witch is a powerful deodorant
yet leaves no unpleasant odor OF
its own. And there's no muss to
clean up afterward; no sediment, no
Jumps of powder, no chalky dust.
And not only for cleaning tile and
enamel Old Witch washes windows
just as well, makes china and glass;
ware sparkle, pots and pans glisten,
washes dirty floors in record time.
Dirtmelts before this amazing cleanser.
Women everywhere have hailed Old
Witch with delight. Named it the
new ammonia discovery. Called it a
super-cleanser. Declared it three times
as effective as ordinary household
ammonia. Never again, they say,
will they attempt to keep house with
out it.
Deadly to dirt, Old Witch is kind
to hands. Will not affect the tender
est skin. You can rub it on your
hands full strength, without sting
or smart.
To make sure you're getting Old
Witch, look for the milky-white fluid,
in the handy-grip, non-slip bottle
with the orange label. Two sizes,

D. c. CLEAR|NGS
SHOW BIC
GAIN
BY HARRY GUSACK
Financial Editor

CoinCident with the new high
mark in loral bank deposits dis.
closed by the call of the Comptroller
OF the Currency yesterday, the
| Washington Clearing House Assoc
citation today annoupced that clear.
inss for the month OF March showed
gain of over $1,000, 600 as com.
! pared with the same month last
! year, rejecting that bcsiness gen.
orally in the National Capital
is continuing it's forward swing.
Clearing house figures for March
which had one business day less
than last year. due to the last
day of the month falling on Sun
day, March 81, reached the nigh
tOtNl of $13l ,795, 1928 as compared
with $122.2S4, 800 for the same
period in 1928, and with $1O9,649 Gao
for February 1929. n
In addition to Washington there
seems to a general agreement that
March and the first quarter of the
new year will have set up some
new high records of production
throughout the country, according
to the weekly trade reviews.
Breadstreet outlines conditions as
follows:
Features of the weeks trade
have been the final rush of whole
salers'and johhers to complete spring
shipments and hurry recorders, while
at retail the features seem to be
a heavy distribution by department
and chainstore organizations, this
| more particularly in the larger
| centers. Mail-order trade reports
| have also been cheerful. In con-
Il.
March. it needs to he recalled that
the advantage of the spring and
early Easter urge to buy has been
partially offset by there being one
| more Sunday, and. therefore. one
less business day in March than A
year ago. the net results of which
will need close analysis and later
returns, to define. At the same time
the evidence in hand. as already
stated, tends TO point to a distinct
gain over year ago for the first
quarter of 1929.
Reports from the Southeast are
that with the passing of the excess
sive rains and resulting floods the

is more doing also in the rest of
