 Announcement of the service, which will put the French capital within i've and six days. respec- lively, or the three chief cities of South America. was made by Air France recently. At present. air. planes are used only to Dakar, boats carrying the mails to Natal.
 The schedule eventually will run twice t. week, according to the company which has decided, 1t ia believed, to use seap1anes for the trans Atlantic leg in preference to faster but less safe land planes. Ajr-F'rance has been rushing plans for inauguration of the all- air service since theend of sum mer, when 1t became obvious that foreign interests would eventually force France out of the South American air-trade unless speedy action was taken.
 Consolidation Planned Meanwhile, 1t is reported the mir ministry k trying to effect q l consolidation of several airplane manufacturing companies. with the double goal of cutting down production expenses and speeding up military and commercial con structlon fin case of emergency.

ORDERED FOR
ALL UTILITIES
Winborne's First Step To-
ward Appraisal F or
Equitable Rate Basis
By J. c. Baskerville
The Times-News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH. Jan. I5.-The new
utilities commission today cracked
down on all the electric, gas,
street railway, water and tele-
phone companies doing business
in the state and ordered them to
file with the commission a COM
plete inventory Of all their physi-
cal properties and equipment,
with specific instructions as to
how these inventories shall be
made. The electric. street rail-
way. water and telephone COM
panies are given until April 1,
1884 to file their inventories,
while the gas companies, except
where operated by an electric
company. are given until Feb. /,
1884. These inventories are to
cover properties and equipment as
of December 81, 1888. The reason
the companies operating gas prop
critics exclusively have been given
only until February l to file their
inventories. is that these compa-
MES agreed to make this inventory
back in November, have been
working on them since that time
and now have them about COM
pleted, the order explains.
Utilities Commissioner Stanley
Winborne. who wrote this order
the fourth since he became
commissioner - does not mincc
any words and tells the utilities
companies affected that they viii
have to bear the cost of making
these inventories, also that he ex'
poets "hearty and complete CO.
operation and a prompt response
by each utility" and adds that
"these inventories will be of mu'
tual advantage to both the utili'
ties and the commissioner.
"Whatever expense is involved
in the preparation of these inven'
tories, in the opinion of the com.
missioner. will be fully justified
by removing from the public mine
the element of doubt as to sounc
values" Winborne continued.
"Much complaint, from many
sources. has come to the commits
! sion with reference to this subject
! (of inventories). have been ad
vised that only few utilities hac

WIDENING BREACHES
With the prospect of brisk
fights in congress the adminlstra-
ton on the eve of its new money
experiment, also is up against rap
i'd " widening breaches between
recovery agencies. The president
was forced recently to lay down
a rigid rule for settling disputes
over jurisdiction between the
NRA and the department of agrl-
culture and now the NRA and the
department of interior have start
ed fighting more openly than
heretofore.
Attaches of the interior depart
ment are boiling over the state
ment of Donald Richberg, general
counsel of NRA, at Saturday 5
power code hearing in which he
told the interior department TO
leave code matters to the MA
and the president and stick to It's
own business. Henry B. Hunt,
speaking for Secretary of Interior
Ickes had attacked the legality OF
imposition Of a code on the mo-,
nopolistic electric utilities and had
insisted sharply that If any code
las to be imposed it should not be
the one presented by the Edison
Electric institute.
The NRA obiously was still
smarting under Ickes recent state
ment that use of PWA funds for
unemployment in railroad con-
struction was being held up by
the NRA's delay in putting into
effect a car builders code. Sew
eral previous indications of fric-
ton have occurred and it APP
peared unlikely that the fight
would end without still sharper
conflict.
