PACE OF INDUSTRY
SLACKENS SLIGHTLY
Off Only One-Tenth of One Percent,
However, in Associated Press
Weekly Index

New York, May 23-(AP)-The pace
of industry slackened somewhat last
week following the peak reached the
week before.
The Associated Press index of in
dustrial activity dipped to 1872 from
1913 in the previous week and 70.2 In
the comparable period year ago.
Automobile output fell back more
than the normal seasonal amount, the
large number of finished cars appar-
emily having some effect on produc-
ton schedules.
Cotton manufacturing was a bit
lower, with the heavy inventory po-
sition still hanging over the market.
Electric power increased less than
would normally be expected at this
time.
Steel mill activity pushed ahead a
bit as talk of higher prices sustained
the existing rates. Total car loadings
advanced on a sharp rise in the ship
ments of Great Lakes ore.

Washington, May 70 (AP)-I axes
and Townsendisn shared headline
prominence today as the capital clos
cd a week crammed with exciting do
ings.
The Senate Finance Committee
neared the end of it's revision of the
tax program it received from the
House. New Dealers were conduct
ing the last-ditch struggle to equip
the government with a big stick to
force certain corporations to dlstrl-
butte large sums of dividends.
The administration men had want
ed a stiff graduated tax on undistri-
buted corporation profits, but the Sen
ate Finance Committee would agree to
levy only a comparatively lean seven
percent, plus an Is percent levy on
all net corporation income and other
tax alterations.
Some New Dealers sought today to
strengthen existing penalty taxes on
corporations which improperly" &C
cumulate SURPRISES.
The House investigating committee
was deadlocked today over punitive
action to be taken against DR.. F. E.
Townsend, old age pension leader, who
walked out on the committee and re-
fused to testify further. Some mem
bers said he should be tried for con-
tempt before the House; others said
the case should be turned over to the
courts.
Townsend predicted the committee
would not "have the courage to put
this matter up to the House."

Passenger service over the coun-
try's air lines was available in 1926,
the first year of contract air mail,
when some of the contractors began
to take passengers in the mail
planes. In that year 5782 passengers
were carried.
BY the end of the World War the
United States had built nearly 1900
planes, taught some 10000 men to
fly, and trained thousands of ar
tisans and mechanics to construct
aircraft and keep them in repair.
An airplane entering British In
dia must be landed for the first time
in any journey at, and must finally
depart from, customs airdrome,
unless the aircraft is compelled to
land before arriving at or after de-
parting from such an airdrome, by
accident, stress of weather or other
unavoidable cause.
Pilots of modern air transports
can tell whether they are banking,
climbing, diving or flying normally,
through use of the artificial horizon,
which shows a miniature airplane
against a straight line. representing
the horizon.
Any plane can be stalled by
climbing at an angle too great for
the horse power of it's motor.

The propeller and wings insignia
of the Scripps Howard Junior Avia-
tors has been carried into the ranks
of Uncle Sans Navy on the blouse
of Seaman Ernest r. Waldorf,
very active member of the outstand-
ing Bellevue Wing of the Toledo
News-Bee Squadron.
When Ernest left Bellevue for the
Naval Training Station at Norfolk.
Va, his model-building equipment
went with him. His time is quite
limited but he still manages to turn
out models quite consistently. He
has recently completed an original
design fuselage model for use in the
n. A. A. Stout endurance contests.
He was assisted in it's construction
by three fellow seamen. It's perform
ance is reported as being quite good,
and he expects to establish few
records with it.
Waldorf is now building a Curtiss
Goshawk. He should be able to turn
out very complete job, since he is
near the testing field where all new
naval planes are put through their

has seen one of the Armys new
Martin bombers and describes it as
very keen ship. 1t is decorated

drab, and chrome-yellow wings.
Waldorf is a graduate of the
Bellevue High School, near Toledo.

Chief of Air Service.

O01eI OI Air Sciftcts
Scripps- Howard Junior Aviator .
A IR traffic in this country is es-
n sentially -state-and not
intra-state.
Consequently we must have one
agency responsible for the kind of
air administration we get; and that
agency logically is the Bureau of Air
Commerce.
The world has changed a good
deal since the days of the Civil
War when the states rights" slo-
gan brought on war. The world
is more closely knit together today
and we must change our thoughts
to keep abreast of progress.
Some time ago the Bureau of Air
Commerce issued an order prohibit
ing private fiers from practicing
blind flying or INDUCING in it along
established federal airways. This
order just had to come.
AS long as we depended upon our
view of the natural horizon and our
sense of balance, we flew only when
visibility was good. But since the
development of blind flying instru-
ments such as the artificial horizon
and the directional gyro and the
turn and bank indicator, we now fly
in weather that formerly would
have been prohibitive.
The development of these instru.
ments enabled airlines to adhere
more closely to their schedules, and
of course these same instruments
are in the hands of pilots such as
myself and other private fliers.
With such equipment, both airline
pilots and private operators are fly
ing in or climbing through solid or
broken clouds or fog, thus creating
danger of collision. And so we
have come to the point where the
fight activities of all hands must
be regulated in order to insure
safety.
Not only must airline and private
pilots be considered, but there are
the operations of the Army, Navy
and Marine Corps TO be provided
for. The question Immediately pro-
poses itself as to how this complex
probe mean be efficiently solved.
The Bureau of Air Commerce has
gone a long way toward a solution
by prohibiting private fiiers and the
air services from using the Federal
airways for blind flying when the
airlines are operating.

Plane Talk

Il ARLY one morning in Decem-
~ Der, squadron of planes took
off from Hamilton Field, California,
for the air maneuvers being held in
Miami.
A young man, setting out on his
early morning chores on his father
ranch in Arizona, hearing the zoom
of the motors looked skyward, and
as his glance followed the formation
winging it's way east, he wished he
could afford a course in flying.
A few hours later, as the planes
scared high over one of the many
college towns inthe great Southwest,
a young student, crossing the cam
pus, stopped to watch the flight
and wondered if after graduation
he might be able to take up flying
as a career. Still later at an air
corps field in one of the Southern
states, as the planes circled in for
landing, young soldier in his
first enlistment watched, and as the
pilots craWled out of the cockpits
determined that some day he would
wear the wings that meant he too
could pilot an Army plane on some
such mission.
The boy in Arizona was 20 years
of age and had completed his sec
ond year at the State University,
but because of depression finances
was unable to continue his school,
ing. The boy in the college town
was in his senior year, and the
young soldier had completed high
school and was definitely interested
in mechanics.
ITO each of these boys and many
l. more like them, energetic, am
bilious young Americans, the Army
Air Corps offers splendid oppor-
.tunity to learn to fly at government
expense.
The training covers a period of
two years. one year at the Air Corps
Training Center, Randolph Field,
Tex, sometimes called the West
Point of the Air" and one year
training with a tactical unit of the
Air Corps. At the end Of the two
years the student has had approx
mately $50 hours in the air.
