 While commercial aviation makes dogged prog ress in the transport of passengers and mall ano freight in competition with railways and motor cars more imaginative airmen in out-of-the-way places are finding new uses for the sirplane whcn otner means of transportation cannot duplicate Just nov group of young American pilots are making aeriaA photographs in Northern and Central Peru, gather ing scientific data that could not be optalneo Ill any other manner.
 After five months work they have more than one thousand aerial photographs which In the ag- gregate give a comprehensive picture of vast region of mountain and jungle valuable to students of geography geology and archaeology, as well as mining interests of the region. Among other things they have found Great Wall not unlike the Great Wall of China which perhaps will completely alter the trend of archaeological research and the scho ary reconstruction of Peru's history. This supplements the extraordinary flnongs oi aerial explorers Yucatan and in the polar regions By acceerating the pace and increasing the accu- racy of exploration the airplane is performing very useful service not merely to scholarship but tc the economic development of new areas lniS phase of air travel may never pay Tn the sense that ordinary air routes between great cltleS are beginning to pay, but in larger estimate 1t IS JUS tifcation of the confidence that man has placed II his ability to fly.

SOVIET RETALIATION AGAINST
 CANADA.

According to a bulletin of the Union of Soviet and Socialist Republics Chamber of Commerce the U S S. R Peoples Conmissar for Foreign Trade issued on April Is a decree forbidding all Soviet importing organizations and trade delegations to purchase goods of Canadian origin or to use Can adan vessels
 This measure is an answer to the decision or the Canadian Government prohibiting the impor- tat!on into Canada of goods of Soviet origin The Canadian Government, says the bulletin, based It's decision on the fact that the Soviet Union is not signatory of the Versailles Treaty notwithstanding the fact that normal trade relations exist between Canada and many other nations which also are lot signaories of the Versailles Treaty, such for in stance as the United States China etc. The de- csion of the Canadian Government is thus directed exclusively against the Soviet Union, and puts So- viet exports into especially unfavorable conditions
 It is not likely that the action of the Soviet will cause great excitement in Canada. The Canadian Government no doubt expected such action when it decided to bar Russian imports. As matter of fact Russian imports from Canada have never been large The inhibition against importing in Can adan vessels might divert shipping from Can adan steamships but it would probably be unim- portant

RADIO SET BUYERS
SET RECORD IN 1880
Drop in Requirements Kept
Earnings DoWn-0utIoOk
for Near Future.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 21.--More people
bought radio sets for the first time dur
ing 1880 than any previous year, even
1929, says the Alexander Hamilton In
stitute. So few used sets were replaced,
however, that total radio sales fell from
4,438,O0O to 3,s27,800. The increase in
new users, from 100000 in 1929 to
100000 in 1880 Is believed due TO
reaching new strata OF the market
through slashed prices.
AS for the new demand, the chances
are against as good a showing In 1881
as in 1880. The unusually rapid prog
reSs toward the saturation point IN
1880 was due to the sharp reduction In
prices. Similarly drastic price cuts are
not in prospect this year. This and the
fact that the industry Is considerably
nearer the saturation point than a year
ago argue for some contraction in the
new market. It is questionable whether
the new market will absorb more than
2,500,000 sets at the most.
These maximum estimates OF the re-
placement and new demand for radios
in 1881 indicate total sales OF 1890 900
sets, according to the institute. Actually,
sales are not likely to exceed $500, 900
sets. as compared with 3,677, 300 sets IN
1880. Sales of tubes in 1881 should be
larger this year than last, but this in
crease is not likely to Offset the de-
crease in sales Of radio sets.
Sales of automobile radios may show
some increase, but sales of parts and
accessories are likely to decrease as
an offsetting factor. The present out
look is, therefore, that total sales Of
radio products in 1881 will show mod
crate reduction as compared with the
1880 volume.

GRAIN VALUES FIRM
DESPITE SURPLUS
Wheat, Corn and Oats Display
Upward Trend at Week
End.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 21.-A hardening
tendency in wheat prices today was
promoted by assertions in some quar-
tiers that all commitments regarding
July and September deliveries were
purely speculative, and that should
there by any untoward development in
regard to the world crop outlook the
result might be disastrous to traders
pessimistically inclined about present
values. It was added that although
large supplies Of old wheat looked
formidable, the opposite was the case
when considered In proportion to the
worlds population. The point was
made that the existing volume Of sup
plies might yet prove a blessing in
stead of a burden.
Corn derived firmness from wheat,
despite near approach of Spring
pasturage, which would lessen farm
use Of corn. Possibility of liberal ship
ments Of corn at the opening Of lake
navigation received notice, and it was
pointed out that owing to increased
field activities Of farmers this was the
season for only light receipts Of corn.

COTTON PRICES GAIN
ON TRADE BUYING
Market Maintains Steady Tone,
With Week End Covering
in Evidence.
~ the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March II. Cotton
opened steady today in response to
steadier Liverpool cables and main
tanned q firm undertone on trade buy
ing and week end covering and in abb
sence Of more than very moderate
amount Of selling. The May price adj
vanced to HOP, a gain of IL points
from the previous close, and closed at
11O1, net gain Of IL points, while the
general market closed very steady at 10
to IS points net higher.
The market opened steady, 4 to z
points higher on the Liverpool market,
which advanced from an early setback,
and was 3 to English points higher
than had been indicated by the action
Of our market on Friday. There was
a conspicuous absence OF contracts
throughout the day and while the de-
mand was not Of large volume, prices
were easily influenced and the technical
position appeared to have been strength
ened. There was little In the news to
account for the advance other than the
cables, but the improvement in the tex
tile market had evidently created suffi-
cient trade buying In small lots to give
the market a show of stability when
sellers withdrew.
Trade accounts were considered gem
orally promising for the week and 1t
was reported that several large indus
tries had been buying raw material for
their future requirements, including a
large automobile concern, which was
said to have purchased large quantities
Of material, including cotton. There
was no new light on the acreage situa-
ton and further rains over the Central
and parts Of the Western and Eastern
belts were looked upon as favorable.
The Department of Agriculture In a
report showed that loans of $15,159, 900
had been made to farmers in the
drought area Of the country, Of which
was said about $13,000,00O had been
loaned to farmers in the South. The
October position advanced to 11.58,
closing at 11.57.

HUGE ORDERS PLACED
BY GENERAL MOTORS
Corporation Sets Precedent by
Purchasing Supplies for Eight
Month Period.

~S[~N~-~ ~~~R~NN%%
NEW YORK, March 21.-General
Motors Corporation, the worlds largest
automotive maker, within the last few
days has placed millions of dollars
worth Of orders for copper, cotton, rub
Der, tin and zinc, for the remainder
OF the automotive year, it was an
nounced today.
In anticipating for more than eight
months its five basic commodities,
General Motors has taken an action
without precedent in its history. 1t
is fair assumption that the corpora
ton believes these commodities have
reached their approximate low-price
levels.
Between March and November, Gen
eral Motors usually turns out about
30 per cent Of its annual motor OUT
put. In this period in 1880 it manu-
featured more than 100000 cars.
The present huge order by General
Motors quite naturally raises q query
as to how American Radiator Co. and
Western Electric Co. Jared with their
ern Electric, which makes the tele-
phone equipment for the Bell Tele-
phone system, on September 10, 1880,
placed a huge order for copper. The
company is believed to be the worlds
biggest user of the red metal. 1t never
announced the amount purchased nor
the price paid, but the trade generally
credited it with buying copper around
9 cents a pound.
When Western Electric made its pur-
chase, copper was selling at 1917 cents
a pound. In February of this year the
metal sold as low as 91z cents. The
lowest price since 1895. Therefore
Western Electric would still have q
profit on its purchase made last
Autumn.
American Radiator, a subsidiary Of
American Radiator Standard Sanitary
Manufacturing Co., on November 8 last
placed an order for $4,000 tons Of pig
iron for delivery early this Autumn.
This was the largest single pig iron
order in years. The price never was
made public, but the trade estimated
it was fully one dollar a ton below
average current quotations. The aver
age price Of pig iron on November 8
was $19.26 ton. Today 1t is $18.76.
If American Radiator received as
favorable terms as the trade supposes,
it has a profit on its huge purchase.

AVIATION INDUSTRY
HELD ON UPGRADE
Growth in Passenger Traffic
One of Biggest Factors in
Hating Depression.

special Dispatch TO The star.
NEW YORK, March 2l.-The ayia-
ton industry is out Of It's depression
period and growing rapidly, according
to a statement just issued by James G.
Wilson, aviation authority.
I'm fact" says Mr.. Wilson, ''the real
turn in operations and growth began in
the Spring of $780," He gives the fol-
lowing facts from 1880 as compared to
1929 to support his statement - avia-
tons growth against the ebb tide ~
general business:
The leading schedule passenger lines
carried $50 per cent more passengers
about 100000 in all.
Safety factors increased enormously.
In 60,000,00O schedule passenger miles
flown in the last half OF 1880 there
were but two passenger fatalities, COM
pared to nine in the last half Of 1929
on q much smaller mileage.
One OF the largest non-schedule ny
ing services carried 155 per cent more
passengers.
Airmail poundings increased 1877 per
cent. Under the Watres act passenger
activities were increasingly combined
with mail carriage.
Operating efficiency increased notably
over all the well managed atrlines and
should continue to increase with the
development of new type higher speed
planes.
The year witnessed intensive prepa-
rations for aviation's next great step
forward larger volume business at
lower rates in commercial air freight.
The commercial development of many
safer flying instruments, such as the
Sperry "horizon" and automatic "gyro-
pilot" added to the promise of an early
conquest Of fog, with stil greater OPP
Grating regularity.
Mr.. Wilson points out that the high
operating activity Of 1880 Is only now
being felt in the manufacturing end Of
the business.
