Coupled with the California Orient plans Of
Pan-American is the announcement that the
Inter- Island Anyways which uses Sikorsky am
phibans, will also enter the air transportation
business between Honolulu and the mainland.
As q result, the Pacific Ocean was brought to
the forefront Of world attention in commercial
aviation. The Pacific Jagged behind the At
lantic in the early days Of flying. Now that the
increased radius Of action Of airplanes, together
with the demonstrated ability Of the modern
aerial engines, has banished much Of the early
fear Of over-water routes, eyes OF commercial
airline operators are looking to the Orient.
While operators of commercial airlines are
focusing their attention on the Pacific, the ma
chimes which they send through the skies are
found to have q long established center of in
terest in California.

PORTING interest In dramatic long,
distance ocean flights was revived again
recently, when Sir Charles Kingsford-
Smith and his navigator, Capt. p. @.
- Taylor, landed their sngle-motored
monoplane at the Oakland airport in
California after flight from Australia.
Having crossed the Pacific Ocean from both
directions between the Antipodes and California,
Sir Charles may seem to have taken some of the
adventure out of such flights. But air trans
port people are now more concerned with estab-
HShing the future Of long distance flying over
water on the same assured basis that it is con-
Quoted over land.
And although Lieut. Charles T. p. Ulm and
two companions were lost at sea in an attempted
California to- Hawaii flight shortly after Sir
Charles achievement, establishment Of regu-
lar commercial passenger, mail and express
service between California and the Orient may
not be far distant.
Interest in such a venture was still further
heightened when Amelia Earhart. already ia
nous for her transatlantic flights, flew solo from
Hawaii to California, making the perilous hop
in 18 hours without difficulty.
On the day after the great London Aus
trala air derby took off from England, Sir
Charles Kingsford-Smith, who had retired from
the race after an argument as to the airworthi-
ness of his plane. hoped from Brisbane, Aus
tralia, for California. He successfully showed,
by reversing the course of his great fight in
1929 that his American-built plane was very
airworthy, indeed.
A BOUT the time that both the air derby and
the exploit Of the flying knight" were ON
the wing, there arrived in Los Angeles the null

FIRST crossing from the mainland to the
! Hawaiian Islands was made in the Summer
of 1927 by Leuts. Lester J. Maitland and Albert
r. Hegenberger Of the United States Army Air
Corps.
Next across were Emery B. Bronte and Ernest
L. Smith q month later. They were the first
civilians to span the great distance. The Dole

navigator. followed by Martin Jensen and Paul
Schluter, took its toll Of tragedies.

persisted when his plane crashed.
Last year the United States Navy, in q rou-

boats, detailed to duty at Pearl Harbor in tho
Hawaiian Islands, decided to make the transfer
by air. Taking OF from San Francisco Bay.
the sky armada made the flight without the

The Navy, from its Pearl Harbor base, last
year also operated q fight comprising two divi-

planes, to French Frigate Shoal, 500 miles from
Honolulu ON the little known extension Of
the main archipelago to the northward. The
fight was entirely successful without any cas-
ualties of planes, surface ships or personnel.

A T one time the British were Sc
* n cure in their island home.
Bound by the water barriers of the
North Sea, the Atlantic Ocean and
the English Channel, Great Brit
ain felt safe by reason of its great
sea fleet.
But as matters stand today, it's
a much easier job to bomb England
Or any portion of it, than it is to
find Paris on a dark night, or any
given part of France or Germany
or in fact, any section of the main
land of Europe That isolation of
the British Isles makes them spe-
cial targets that can easily be
found.
The aunching of a bombing squad
ron from the mainland of Europe
means but short flight over the
sea-and then the first land they
find underneath belongs to Eng
land and is an open target. And
the British, in complete realization
of this, maintain a powerful sea
fleet but regard the Royal Air
Force as the first line of defense.
Very little of the real story of
aviation and its future possibilities,
either in commerce or war. is I'M
derstood or appreciated. For in
stance, even in peacetime opera
lions, all the airlines of the world
stress their speed performances.
And after all, what is the difference
between five or 10 miles an hour
to an airline passenger when he is
making an all-night railroad trip
in an hour and a half or two hours
by air? ......'
Speed is talked about, whereas the
real features of personal comfort
and physical efficiency are very sell
dom discussed. Very rarely do you
hear the story of being able to fin
ish days work in Pittsburgh and
then to fly to New York in less than
two hours, and how that quick trip
permits the business men to sleep
in a stationary bed, to arise next
morning, and have all the water

WASHINGTON, Nov 26.-Public
Works Administrator Harold L
Ickes asserted today that he had I'M
covered "prima facie evidence of COL
lusive bidding by four major steeI
companies on third PWA project

The companies involved by Ickes'

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-Presi-
dent John L. Lewis of the United
Mine Workers moved today to place
the case for industrial unioniSm
before the organized workers of
America in his clash with the lead
ership of the American Federation
Of Labor.
Lieutenants of the bushy-eye-
browed, soft-spoken miners leader
announced that the Lewis program
for mass organization of industries
was being sent out Immediately to
every central labor body, state fed
Grafton, Federal labor union and
international union in the country.
The announcement emphasized
Lewis determination to go forward
with his program despite plea for
reconsideration by President Will
liam Green of the American Fedora
ton of Labor.

he wants to splash over himself.
That's what I mean when I say
the real story of aviation hasn't
been told, and it applies just as
much to aerial warfare. The fight
ing and bombing airplane holds top
place as far as physical efficiency
and comfort of operation is con-
cerned in warfare. That's one
of the reasons why World War
pilots were the objects of envy by
the men in the trenches.
QUESTION: How many hours of
flying time are necessary to get a
private pilots license?
Fifty hours solo, added to your
dual instruction.
