Safety Is the keynote OF the air.
plane designers and they have
achieved marvellous results. One
airline operating out OF Detroit for
Ave years carryed thousands OF
passengers without the slightest
injury to any Of them. other air
lines hold equally enviable re-
cords OF safety and dependability.
Yet this is overlooked when the
average person reads OF an air.
plane accident.
There will always be airplane
crashes Just as there will always
be automobile accidents. but note
how seldom n modern airliner Is
involved. n true answer to the
question OF airplane safety Is pro-
vided by Mrs. Franklin ID. Roose-
welt. When she was asked by her
well-wishers whether she would
continue her extensive airplane
travelling after the crash OF Post
and Rogers. she said: may as
well quit automobiles and boats
as well for they all have acct
dents" This Is the spirit that will
insure progress In any race.

AERO--TOPICS
by NEAL LOVING
Introductory

In introducing this column To
the public l would like to outline
it's purpose and TO set forth my
own ideas and ideals regarding
Negro aviation. The opinions con-
tanned In these articles are en-
tirely personal.
The first purpose Is to present
all news OF colored people engag-
ed in the aircraft industry and
events OF the general aviation that
pertain TO the Negro race. In this
matter | would like to invite all
colored pilots, mechanics and fly
ing clubs to tell me OF their acti-
vities or exchange viewpoints on
aeronautical topics. want you all
ito feel that this Is a common
meeting ground for all who are
interested in the progress of Ne
gro aviation.
The goal l believe we all should
work for is TO establish as soon
as possible a Negro Aviation In
dustry. BY this l do not mean a
handful OF pilots or a sprinkling
of flying clubs. but an industry
that will include factories capable
Of designing and building modern
aircraft. and an intelligent group
of men and women with the train
ed ability necessary TO maintain
such an industry. This means not
only pilots but skilled technicians.
engineers and mechanics whose
sole duty Is TO construct aircraft
that are safe in the air and to
maintain them so that they will
stay safe during flying operations.
This Is the ultimate goal we
should strive for and it Is only
possible through providing proper
educational facilities and the
hearty financial and moral sup
port of the people at large.
Safety
The foremost question In the
ptOpIt ulnu iOudy ItbdIuinB
aviation is whether airplanes are
safe or not. Air travel has numer
GUS advantages that are easily re-
cognized but the safety OF aircraft
IS not so farcibly impressed on
our minds. Some people still re-
gard flying as a hazardous stunt
and attempted only by daredevils
Dr. fools.
Reliable statistics show that one
airline carried $4,000 passengers
Turing 1884 Among their impress
tive list OF passengers included
he President and Mrs. Roosevelt
Town 10 the small business man.
L is significant to note that II is
generally the more intelligent |
lass that patronizc The airlncs
They are quick TO note the adyan
ages of speed, safety and comfort

Relations with the League.
THE delegate or commission

least once a year, make reports
which will be communicated to
the Emperor at the same time as
they are addressed to the Council
of the League.
THE Ethiopian government will

"As the work Of assistance must
be long, it would seem imprac-

relatively brief duration such as
five years. 1t would, however, be
desirable to provide that the plan
may be renewed at the end OF five
years by the council Of the League

experience gained during that
period.

the existing regime in regard to
the treatment of foreigners and in
regard to external trade. that they
are prepared to recognize the spe-

Consequently, these govern

BERLIN, September 24.-Sugges-
tions for wholesale transference OF
Jewish owned businesses into Aryan
hands in a manner satisfactory to
both sides" were made today by the
Nazi economic political service.
The service advocated formation OF
a collective institution" to handle all
such transactions.
1t reported that Jews were increas-
ingly anxious to dispose Of their enter
prises, partly because Of their desire
to emigrate and partly because their
businesses were becoming Improbable
through reluctance of Aryan clients to
deal with Jews.
Its suggestion proposed that major
banks create a concern among them
selves to deal with available PROPOSE
tions, or that an independent trust
be formed to advance funds to Aryan
purchasers, at the same time satisfying
the seller, provided the course Of
business be q sound purchase and

IF Jews wish to quit Germany, we
must give them the facilities for dis
posing Of their businesses to the salts

mated that the League Of Nations had
exhausted its possibilities in the Italo-
Ethiopian controversy.
II Duce told his ministers that Italy
had offered no counter-proposals to
the League settlement plan and ad-
journed the cabinet until Saturday
to enable them to follow further de-
velopments in Europe and Africa.
Mussolini said his communication to
the League merely stated Italy's rea-
sons for rejecting the League Com
mittee of Fye's proposals.
Possibilities Outlined.
The premier outlined to the cabinet
the possibilities of developments in
the situation on the basis of some
articles of the League covenant and

TO GUARD BORDER
Warriors, Equipped With
Two Months Rations, Act
to Meet Attack.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Adds ABABA, September 24-An
advance Of thousands Of Ethiopian
warriors toward the Northeast frontier
to guard against surprise attack
by Italian forces was reported today
from Aduwa.
The warriors were said to be equipped
with two months rations. The soldiers
were enrolled in the national army
from Northern Ethiopia.
Arms Sold to Citizens.
In order to equip all able-bodied
citizens with firearms, Emperor Halle
Selassie now Is selling modern rifles
on the installment plan to those who
can affoffrd to pay. Obsolete rifles
gradually are being scrapped.
Serious disputes appear to have
arisen between the Belgian govern
ment and IL Belgian retired officers
whom the Ethiopian government plans
to use as the nucleus of a special
police force for the protection Of lega-
tions and foreigners.
The Brussels government was re-
ported to have demanded the imme-
diate repatriation Of these officers,
presumably under pressure by Italy,
but the officers refused to leave, argu-
ing that they are private citizens
and no longer connected with the
Belgian Army.
Enriched by Message Tolls.
American and other correspondents
have enriched the Emperor's war
treasury to the extent Of $l50,000 by
message tolls so far this month. This
figure Is nearly 10 times greater than
the entire revenues from the radio
station in 1894. 1t was said that the
government may purchase additional
firearms with the revenues.
Selassie invited members Of the Dip
lomatic corps, including Italian Min
ister Luigi >Vinci-Gigliucci, today to
inspect the model prison which he
recently dedicated.
His majesty personally showed the
diplomats the spot where he intended
to build a chapel and manual work
shop adjoining the prison for in
mates. The Emperor built the prison
at his own expense. expending about
100000.
