He had Just returned to New York City after
making Nation wide tour of air lines and was
in the humor to discuss the forward-looking as
poets of aviation. His years of flying experience
make him practical, and SO his predictions are
not inspired by nor tinged with superoptimism.
Besides, the noted war ace Is, by reason OF his
war experience and his present connections In
the field of aviation, Gin the know" so to speak
Because of this his forecasts have particular
significance.
Can't Rickenbacker enlisted with Gen. Per-
shing's group in May, 1917, and on arrival In
France was one of Gen. PerShing's private
chauffeurs At his own request he was trans
ferred to the aviation division in August, 1917
and after a three-week training period was
transferred to the Issoudon Aviation School IN
the capacity of chief engineering officer, with
the rank of lieutenant. Eventually he was
transferred to active duty with the S4th aero
SQUADRON of which group he became COM
mander with the rank Of captain.
At the conclusion of the war Capt. Ricken-
hacker was acclaimed Americas ace OF aces,
having brought down a total of 26 enemy planes
and balloons. Various honorS were conferred on
him. among them the Croix de Guerre with
four palms. the Legion of Honor Medal and
the D. c. S. with nine palms.
CAPT. RICKENBACKER, in his New York

relatives need not wave bon voyage with black

elers in these days when two-way radio COM
munication and other marvellous new safety
devices for planes springing into being al
most by the hour.
"We will make coaSt-to-coast airplane trips
I'm 10 hours by 1910, and within year from
now we will be travelling from coast to coast IN
from "a to 30 hours" said Capt Rickenbacker.
This time limit will automatically be reduced
from year to year as time goes on, for to In
crease the speed is simply matter of engi-
neering.
"An travellers will be using airplaneS within
10 years. Competition makes it imperative for
us to produce the fastest means Of transporta-
ton whether it be for business or pleasure.
Modern business requires it, of course, but even
q person bent pleasure does not want to
spend half of his precious playtime allotment
on trains. Take for example, the man who Is
going to spend a vacation in California after
nearly a year in Office confinement That man
Is yearning for open air and sunshine, and it
is only natural that he should want to reach
his goal in the fastest possible manner.
"In wishing to make record time he need
not have anxiety for his safety, for, as far as
epeed is concerned travelling by air is just the
opposite from ground transportation. The faster
you go by ground transportation, the more
hazardous and less comfortable the journey be-
comes. The higher and faster you go in the
air, the safer and more comfortable you are
paradoxical as this may sound.

condition Of the crop at 70 as ON
pared with 80 on Jan. /, 1929. Re-
ports received by the Bureau OF

that practically all the cabbage
crop In the Corpus Christi Robs-
town section and in parts Of Louisi-
ana was destroyed by the late De-
cem5er freeze. Every producing
section shows q sub-normal con
dition.
The condition OF the California
crop Is 85 as compared with SO on
Jan. i, 1929. and the ten year aver
age OF 81. The Texas crop was re-
ported as 30, as compared with 81
on January !, 1929, and the G
year average of 81. Louisiana was
reported at 80. as against 80 last
year an average Of 80. The Florida
report was IS.
In both Louisiana and Texas the
best crops were hit hard, the re-
port showing an average condition
OF AZ, with the condition on January
!, 1929 reported at 80, indicating
that the per acre production will be
reduced approximately 5 per cent.
Carrots were not materially dam
aged, the report placing the Texas
crop at 80 as compared with 80 last
year.
The report on onions indicates
a short crop. with an average OF
70 as compared with 90 on January

Texas crop Is reported IN per cent

ported at go. or II points below the

The Florida cabbage and lettuce
was only slightly damaged by the
late December freeze, but in the
Lake Okeechobee section beans were
damaged throughout the entire
