a cruising speed of 100 miles an hour.
Behind the French activity in this
field, behind Germany's experiments on
the same route with the mother ship
Westfalen as a mid-ocean refueling sta
ton and her attempts to- build long
range Heinkel and Junkers seaplanes
that will make the South Atlantic flight
nonstop, lies the determination of
these and other economically progress
sive nations to protect their trade by
forging swift lines of communication
with all parts of the globe. The same
motive last Summer inspired Col. and
Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh's aerial survey
of potential flying routes across the
North and South Atlantic. It also is
behind recent announcements that the
Blackburn company is designing high
speed 50-passenger flying boat for I'M

Atlantic rum. But, together with the
air lines vast Latin American system,
they are supplying the organization with
invaluable operating experience under
conditions ranging from the steaming
heat of the tropics to the biting sub
zero temperatures of the Arctic. And
they give Pan-American a preferred po-
sition in the international chess game
now going on to determine what nation
shall be the commercial mistress of the
skies.
What the transatlantic and trans
Pacific air service now in the off1ng will
mean to world commerce may be real
lied from the fact that flying time be-
tween the United States and Europe will
be but IS hours; the Pacific crossing
over the long mid-ocean route matter
of 60 hours flying. This does not mean,
of course, that such flying would be
continuous; stops would have to be
made for fuel, and Pan-American's pres
ent practice indicates it would confine
operations to daylight hours-though
four days to the Philippines and China
still is figure to coniure with.
Just how soon such service, now
a definite possibility, is to become an
actuality depends on many factors be-
sides the mere ability of American aerial
clipper ships or the planes of any other
nation to cover the distances involved
safely and on regular schedule. Gov
ernment subsidies are involved or, in
our own case, international airman con-
tracts. -...
Paradoxically, the very nations that
are racing each other for priority on
the aerial trade routes are in no hurry
to launch such services.
They want more experience, still
better equipment, before committing
themselves to such an ambitious project,
for national prestige can suffer as well
as benefit in a matter of this sort. The
wider the margin of assurance that the
job can be done once it Is undertaken
the better for both the operator and
his country.
Nevertheless, the great commercial
air powers of the world are watching
each others moves with jealous interest
while they play a waiting game and
feveriShly muster their forces of me-
chanical ingenuity and designing genius
for the air trade war that is to come.
1t is a safe bet that Pan-American Air
ways, while it might prefer another year
or two of Laboratory" experience, will
act quickly to forestall any other nation
in the establishment of air routes across
either the Atlantic or the Pacific.
At the same time, if no one forces
its hand, this company is content to
wait little longer until actual expert
ence has established public confidence
in the revolutionary things its experts
now know are both possible and prac-
