In view Of the large number Of off,

Navy Department has decided TO re-
strict the wearing of aiguillettes to
those officers who do in fact. serve as
personal aides, for which service aig1lil-
lettes were originally intended. Under
this new policy, of the officers serving
on the staffs of flag officers af1oat. only
the flag secretary and the flag lieuten-
ant will be ordered as aides. They will
be ordered to report to a flag officer
designated by name. for duty as aide on
his staff. Officers intended for admin
istrative duty on a flag officers staff
will be ordered to report to the desig-
mated flag officer by title, for the par
ticular administrative duty assigned.
The present practice of ordering Off
GERS as aides to flag officers on shore
duty will be continued.
Thirteen lieutenant commanders of
the Navy have been ordered detached
from their present duties to their
homes, relieved of all active duty. pre-
paratory to transfer to the retired list
of the Navy on June 80. They are,

During the two days following con-
slant check was maintained on the
movements of the planes and three
of the log entries illustrate the value
| of the constant radio contact. They
are as follows:

"11:00 ammo. still unheard from
lib a.m.-Bomber No. 8 landed
Winslow o. k. Other planes advised"
Had Bomber No. 8 not put in an
appearance" the Department of Com
merce explained, "the other planes
would have been notified by radio and
would have started search for it.
The squadron of bombers was on a
difficult assignment. 1t was operating
over sparsely settled territory at time
when snow covered the ground and
slight miShap might have Hhad serious
results because of the weather condi-
tions. However. by using the radio
station. the various craft scattered
over a wide area by their individual
assignments, were able to be in con-
slant communication with Winslow."
Keepers Life No Sinecure.
The life of the keepers of Uncle
Dahl D oil ways IdulO anu DtdCOLl SID
tions, like the life of the light house
keepers along the coasts, is not always
one Of ease. Many of the stations are
far removed from civilization and the
crews lead lives of loneliness and hard
ship.
The airways weather reporting and
radio range stations at Donner Summit,
Calf, Is an example. The airways
keepers there have a problem that con-
tlnueS throughout the Winter. A re-
port recently issued here by the De-
partment of Commerce gives an in
sight into the lives of these lonely
guardians Of the airways that reveals a
new phase Of aeronautical activity.
The annual precipitation at Donner
Summit which is on the Western slope
OF the Sierra Nevada Mountains near
the Nevada California boundary line, is
heavier than at almost any other point
in the United States, it was pointed
out.
The two stations are located close
together at the summit of the SerraG
some 35 miles west Of Reno and at
an elevation of approximately $500 feet.
The stations are in separate buildings
on exposed pinnacles of rock approx
mately 100 yards from a highway This
highway. however. is ordinarily closed
by snow throughout the Winter months,
the only access to the stations Is by
skis or snoWShoes
The average annual snowfall record
ed at Norden, two miles away, over the
past 40 years is 420 inches or 35 feet.
A maximum fall of 1872 inches, or over
IS feet, was recorded during one Win
ter. Snow commonly lies to a depth of
20 feet on level areas in the vicinity.
The highway over the mountain ordi-
narily is closed after the first heavy
snowfall, usually in November, and is
not again open to travel until April
or May.

is clearly illustrated by line drawings
or diagrams. Little touches OF humor
make the volume unique and readable
even for those who have no expecta-
ton of learning to fly. There is
foreword by Capt. Frank M. Hawks. .
There are pithy paragraphs scattered
through the volume, the tenor of which
may be judged by the following, noted
at random
when a novice asks, How safe Is
f1ying?' the answer is. How high Is
up?' Both are just what make them. p"
Flying low and slow is like skating
on thin ice."
Altitude, when good judgment calls
for it, is like money in the bank In
boom years"
There is no such thing as too much
skill in flying. You need every bit of 1t
when you meet with an emergency"
Changing your mind in the midst
of forced landing is like being caught
short in the stock market"
"A beautiful green field near the
water may be like a rotten apple
nice to look at but soft inside

is like a person who jumps into deep
water and finds out that he can't

the Fall and virtually are cut off from
communication with the outside world
for months, except by means of the
teletypewriter circuits and occasional
difficult trips to the outside.
Several times during the Winter one
of the three men travels on skis to Nor
den or to Truckee, 10 miles away, for
mail or fresh supplies. This man must
be let down from the station by ropes
to a point where the snow lies suffi-
GENTLY level for him to travel unaided.
Wind velocities up to IS miles an
hour are not uncommon on the exposed
peaks where the stations stand, but ex-
tremely low temperatures are rare.
Although such station is neces-
sarily difficult of operation and mainte-
nance" the Department of Commerce
reported, Its operation is proving thor
oughly justified, inasmuch as it is con-
sidered the most important between San
Francisco and Reno"
CeIIophane Protects Metal.
Cellophane, which has made its way
into the daily life of the Nation so rap
idly, has found its way into aviation
In the construction of metal airplane
wings it has been customary to use
aluminium foil to protect the metal parts
from dope used on the fabric wing cov-
ering.
Lately, however. cellophane has been
used for the purpose with good results
The cellophane is cut into strips and
coated lightly on one side with varnish
When the varnish is tacky. the strips
are stuck onto the metal structure A
special gunmed cellophane is being de-
veloped for this purpose. The advan-
tages over aluminium foil are found in
lower weight and reduced cost.
An Interesting Book.
A decidedly interesting new book on
the rudiments of flying an airplane
is that Of Assem- Jordanoff, Bulgarian
war ace, designer and builder of planes
and now well known in America as
an instructor and writer on student
training. Jordanoff calls his book Fly
ing and How to Do It" and the book
really is better than the title.

cal language the points every student

| busy these days on night formatlor
| flying and blind flying and navigation
These are among the more difficult
portions Of military training and speak
well for the training standards OF the
division which ranks well up among the
naval reserve units.
The division has been engaged II
regular night flying and instrument OF
blind" flying operations since last
October and now is going into advanced
training in both these departments.
For blind navigational training, tbs
pilots are making use of triangular
closed course, marked off on the map
with Anacostia as one of the corners
Each pilot is required to compute for
himself the compass courses he must
fly and to estimate the time required
on each leg Of the fight in order to
cover the course marked of on the
map.
This results in real navigational
training, since the pilot, in computing
his compass course, must take into con-
sideration not only all compass errors,
including those caused by change OF
position of the magnetic center OF the
plane, but also must allow Tor Wnd
direction and strength on each leg OF
the course, as well as true ground
speed" of the plane.
The pilot then flies the course under
the hood" closed in his cockpit so that
he can see nothing but the instrument
panel before him. A safety pilot" is
carried in the rear cockpit but the re-
serve man under the hood must fly the
course. The safety pilot in the rear
cockpit marks off on a map the course
actually flown for comparison with the
course designated for the hooded
pilot to follow. Any errors in naviga-
ton or reading of instruments are
clearly shown by this comparison.
The training now in progress is
proving exceedingly valuable to all pilots
of the division and the reserve flyers
are finding the work most interesting
Radio Aids Rescue Flight.
Airways radio stations, whose work.
ings many have considered an uninter-
esting and prosaic, though important,
part of the functioning of the Nations

cidedly interesting factor in the rescue
from starvation of thousands of snow
bound Indians in the vicinity OF Wins

without interruption to its daily
routine, the Department Of Commerce
airways radio station at WinSlow played
an important part in the emergency
operations of Army bombardment planes
which carried food and other supplies to
the isolated tribe. During the time the
bombers were in the air the Winslow
station acted as their only connecting
link with the outside world, protecting
the bomber crews in case of forced
landing and permitting a coordination
of the whole rescue program.
The first entries on the log of the
Winslow station concerned the advance
of the Army rescue planes on Winslow,
base of operations during the mission.
The log traced the progress of the
planes as they contacted the airways
radio stations en- route and finally re-
corded the safe arrival of all ships. The
log for the next day tells in the tersest
possible form the story of the splendid
flights. in the face of severe handicaps

as many as 600 leaving the remaining
400 to be furnished mostly by ofncers
applying for retirement. 1t Is q belief
that many officers have been reported
as physically unfit for field duty, and
the impression prevails at the Capitol
that departmental policy has been, and
IS. to refrain from retiring officers on
these grounds, on the theory that such
officers are still qualified to render GER
tain duties in time of peace, provided
such service is not too exacting and
thereby retain the advantage Of their
usefulness and experience.
Many officers confronted by retire
ment for physical disability have been
reluctant to be transferred from the
active list, an unwillingness that would
probably be removed we're they per
mitted to go on the retired list with
three-fourths of their joint base pay
and allowances Those familiar with
the reports on file descriptive Of the
state of health of Army officers, as re-
vealed by this receEt physical examina-
ton, feel that there Is an altogether ex-
aggerated notion of the number of ofi-
GERS who are awaiting retirement for
physical disability 1t Is estimated by
one conservative authority that there
are not more than 200 officers who may
be so transferred from the active list,
allowing for the maximum percentage
of disqualifying disability. The diff-
Guilty has been, and may continue to be,
the personal element that inevitably
enters into such proposition Ofhcers
naturally at this time are reluctant to
retire, mainly on account of the exist
ing depression in the industry, which
diminishes their chances Of obtaining
employment in civil pursuits.
Four or five commissioned vacancies
will exist in the Ordnance Department
within the next six or seven months.
These vacancies will be available TO
lieutenantS desiring four-year detail.
The type Of officer desired Is one that
has completed at least two years serv-
ice with troops, has q good efficiency
report, and who stood in the first third
of his class at the educational institu-
ton he attended.
