A|RPLANE TRAVEL
GROWING RAPIDLY
Industry Reports Large In;
crease in Business for
Recent Months.
BY BRADLEY w. TRENT.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK. November 20.-How
formidable air transport has become as
a competitor for passenger traffic with
railroads and steamships is clearly
shown in figures released in a report
issued by the Aeronautical Chamber of
Commerce of America, national trade
association of the aircraft industry
The report covers operations on the So
major air lines in the United States
during the first nine months of 1881.
While travel by land and sea has
fallen off sharply compared with 1880,
the air lines have actually shown an
increase IN passenger traffic.
Report Shows Gains.
Air transport lines carried 34S, 507
passengers during the first nine months
of 1881, as compared with 327,211 in
the same period of $780, an increase Of
65 per cent. Class / railroads carried
1913, 464,000 intercity passengers during
the first seven months of this year, as
compared with 161 sos, 900 in the same
period Of 1880. showing a decrease of
POS per cent. The roads reported COM
muter traffic off 11.3 per cent for the
period. Transatlantic steamship lines
operating from American ports carried
1894 westbound and 288,316 east
bound passengers during the first eight
months of 1881, as compared with
3l4034 westbound and 354,405 east
bound in the corresponding period of
1880. This represents a decrease of
1895 per cent in westbound traffic and
1873 per cent in eastbound traffic.
American air transport lines also
have recorded an increase of All per
cent in mileage flown during the first
nine months Of this year. The total
was 81 ,366,383 miles. Air express ship
ments in the same period increased 2l2
per cent to a total of 683,845 pounds,
and airmail rose 1872 per cent to
$685., 281 pounds.
Recent Pickup.
A marked pickup in business was
recorded in the third quarter, for in
the first half of the year the passen-
ger traffic was below the figures for the
same 1880 period Air passenger traffic'
set high monthly record in Septem-
Der, when 62,419 peNgons were carried
on American air lines. The final quar-
ter also is expected to show a sharb
seasonal increase in the number of pas
sengers. bringing the annual total wen
aheas of The 385,9l0 figure attained in
1880.

COAL PRODUCTION
ESTIMATE IS Low
More Modern Fuels and
Methods Have Hit Btu
minouS Industry.
BY CHAS p. SCHAEFFER.
Associated Press Business Writer.

Displacement of bituminous coal by
more modern fuels and methods, coll
pied with the low business activity, is
expected by C. E. Bocxus, president of
the National Coal Association to result
in the lowest production in 1881 for the
last quarter Of a century.
BockHs estimates the years output
will be not more than 394,759,0 900 tons,
as compared with 461 $50 900 tons last
year and with a peak production OF
sac, 600, 900 tons in 1918.
Remedies Suggested.
Tracing the present low estimate Of
the industry, Bockus said the curtailed
production of more than 80 per cent,
coupled with output per miner per day
increased, must mean closed mines,
ruinously short running time. a large
number of mine employees either out OF
work entirely or being given slight OPP
portunity for employment, lower wages
and cutthroat competition in coal cell
ing"
There are two roads open to meet the
situation in the opinion of Bockus.
First, a continuance of the existing
financially ruinous policy" OF selling
much of the coal mined at less than
cost in the attempt to maintain run
ming time, and second, reasonable CO.
operation in the industry for sensible
restriction of output to demand.
The former policy, he said, would
gradually but slowly decrease produc-
ton by the closing of operations that
can no longer meet their labor and ma
terial bills, while the latter would be
fraught with legal and managerial
stumbling blocks, such as conflict with
antitrust and other State and Federal
laws and the ALLEGATION OF districts
which would be sacrificed in tonnage.
Combustion Improvements.
improvements in combustion effected
a saving OF" about 100000 tons OF
coal last year. Bockus said, while re-
placement by other fuels in" the same
period was estimated at 60, c00,000 tons.
Bockus said that as long as we have
oil and gas as competitive fuels ana
hydro plants as rivals in power produc-
ton, there can be no forcing OF coal
prices to high levels He insisted. how
ever. that sane and economic limitation
of production might insure prices that
would be a decided improvement over
the ruinous ones now ruling"

The German situation, which is being
closely watched these days in American
financial centers, is now dependent on
the solution of three major problems
the necessity Of reducing commodity
prices, of stopping the drain of gold and
foreign exchange and of arranging an
agreement on short-term credits.
These questions, Acting Commercial
Attache Douglas Miller at Berlin said in
a cable to the Commerce Department,
"are receiving the earnest attention of
the Government, and the resulting de-
cisionS will determine the course of
business developments in Germany dur
ing the next year."
The announcement that Germany and
France were in agreement that the
former should invoke the provision of
the Young plan for a denomination of
her capacity to pay reparations by an
advisory committee of the Bank of In
ternational Settlements was today re-
ceived in Washington with qualification
and as step which would aid recovery
from the worldwide economic depreS-
sion.
The Young plan provides for Amer
lean representation on the committee,
and it Is assumed that some prominent
banker will be selected for this purpose
BY the terms OF the plan, no Govern
ment official or an official of the Fed
eral Reserve system will be eligible.
There was no Indication here today as
to the selection.
Cost of Living.
The Commerce Departments CORE
spondent confined his Geographic report
to outlining the major issues He de-
clared the problem Of reducing the cost
of living involves three main elements
prices, wages and interest rates.
The government is discussing methods
OF price reduction by emergency de-
crees, including the dissolution of the
Cartel price agreements, Miller ex-
planned. But, he added, German OBJ
servers believe 1t is doubtful whether
the mere dissolution of such agreements
would be effective as long as the pres
ent purchasing power Of the public is
maintained and goods are actually
Salable at the present prices.
Miller said trade union opinion is
unanimous on the necessity for the re-
duction Of prices simultaneously with
or before wage reductions, and the re-
cent arbitration decision in the metal
workers wage dispute af1irms this de-
mand, but there is evidence of increas-
ing pressure against the present wage
rate which will probably lead to the
