LIMERICK. Irish Free State,
March l8 u.N.SD. - Aviation's
greatest dream-a regular trans
atlantic air service linking the
Old World with the new by means
of a 24-hour ocean crossings
today taking concrete shape at
Rynanna. picturesque Irish ham
let II miles west Of here.
Selected by American and Brit
ish air experts, who included Col.
Charles Lndbergh, Rynanna, jut-
ting into the broad Shannon River
from the beautiful County Clare
shore. is being transformed into
the European terminus OF the big
eest air venture of the century.
Forty miles from Clifden, in
county Galway, where Alcock and
Brown landed 18 years ago after
accomplishing the first Atlantic
flight in the history of aviation,
its rural peace of centuries is being
shattered by the roar of gigantic
four-motored flying-boatS, by the
presence of surveyors, architects,
air experts and scores of others.
Today merely a hamlet, a broad
marsh with half a dozen cottages
clustering on the edge Of the
heather, place so tiny that 1t
does not appear on large-scale gov
ernment maps, it is destined in the
course of the next year to rise as
the dream airport of the future,
where travellers from America will
be whisked to their European des-
tination a day after leaving New
York.
Already great 17-ton British fly
ing boats are travelling almost
daily from the Rynanna district
500 miles out to sea, making
weather observations, talking by
radio to ships and land stations,
and testing anchorageS in all kinds
of weather.
In the late summer of this year
one of these machines will set out
on the first test flight to New
foundland and the United States.
Similar test flights will be made
periodically throughout next year,
and by early 1899, at the latest. the
first passengers and mail, will be
transported in regular service.
To Be Based on Island
For the next few months until
the completion of Rynanna as the
eastern terminal. the flying boats
will be based at Foynes Island, 10
miles to the southeast.
Equally important in the scheme
is the creation on Dernish Island,
a mile off shore at the confluence
of the Fergus and Shannon rivers,
of a pier head for the Rynanna
base.
Dernish. until few weeks ago,
was deserted, the family of Irish
farmer-fisher folk who tried to
wrest living from it's soil and
coast having given up the struggle
and long ago migrated to the
mainland.
Projected Service Outlined
The scheme envisages flying
boats from the United States
landing in the three -mile-wide
estuary of the Shannon. taxing to
a floating landing-stage at Dern-
ish, and disembarking their pas
sengers.
Then the passengers will cross
to Rynanna by milelong bridge,
where high-poWered airplanes will
speed them to London, Paris,
Amsterdam or Berlin.

Charted here are average maintenance costs obtained
from feet owners operating hundreds of cars on
Goodyear Tires. Note that full set of Goodyears
costs only about one-hfth as much as gas-from
one-quarter to one-half as much as other routine
expenses. Ratios may vary somewhat in your case
depending upon roads, climate and how fast you
drive butthese nationwide prove Goodyears
cost least under any conditions.

Loop consisted Ct 1900 striking

CHAIN STORE TAX
REPORT IS ASKED
Of D. c. OFFICIALS
House Committee Acts After
Sponsor Cites Court
Decision.
BILL PROVIDES $1,000
MAXIMUM PER UNIT
Schultz Predicts Levies Would
Add Considerably to $6,0O0,.
900 to Be Raised.
BY JAMES E. CHINN,


The House District Committee to.
day formally called on the Commis-
sloners for an early report on the
Schultz bill to license and tax chain
stores
Action came few hours after Rep.
resentatlve Schultz, Democrat. of In.
diana, sponsor of the measure, had
appealed to the special Tax Subcom.
mlttee working on new taxation pro.
gram for the District to give it serious
consideration in view of the Supreme
Court decision upholding a chain
store tax.
$1,000 Maximum Provided.
The bill was introduced March II
and referred to the Tax Subcommit.
tee, but in view of the many other
revenue producing suggestions, it had
been forgotten by Chairman Kennedy.
Every store in the District would
be taxed under Schultes measure,
but chain operations would bear the
heaviest burden. For instance. the
license fee for one store woulA be $40
year. But in other cases the annual
license fee would be equivalent to the
number of stores multiplied by $40.
A chain of 10 stores would be
required to pay $500 for each store,
and chain of 100 stores would be
required to pay $1,000 for each store,
But In no instance would the license
fee for any one store exceed $1,000.
Exact Revenue Undetermined.
Schultz has no estimate to show
how much the chain store tax would
yield. He predicted however, it
would add a considerable sum"
toward the s6,000,000 the subcom-
mittee is endeavoring to raise to keep
the District out of the red in the new
fiscal year beginning July l.
Kennedy promised to include
Schulte's bill in a general taxation
program he has been authorized to
draw up for consideration of the sub.
committee at its next meeting Tuesday.
From this program selection will be
made Of the new forms of taxation it
will recommend for adoption.
In addition to the chain store tax,
the program will include a weight tax
| on motor vehicles, an increase in the
| gasoline tax, general sales tax, a gross
receipts tax. a corporation tax. an in
come tax, an Inheritance and estates
tax and increased taxes on insurance
premiums and public utility corpora
| tions.
Some Tentatively Approved.
The subcommittee already has ten.
tatively approved an increase in the
insurance premiums tax, an inheri-
tance and estate tax, and a weight tax
on motor vehicles These taxes, how
ever. are estimated to produce only
s2,500000 toward the present IS ,OOO,-
| 900 goal
1t is Kennedy's aim to have the SUBJ
committee complete its tax program
by the middle Of next week so it can
be rushed through the House before
June l. He pointed out it is vitallv
necessary that the program be enacted
into law by July l, the beginning of the
new fiscal year.
Kennedy said he did not anticipate
any serious delay of the program il,
the Senate because Chairman King oe
the Senate District Committee had
promised to go along" with the tax
increase proposals Of the House
