New Progress Seen
For Aviation i'm 1887

Lustest child among infant in.
dustries, aviation promises to con-
tinue its spectacular progress dur
ing 1897 and to develop much
higher earning power over the
next few years, it is reported in
Poor's Investment Advisory Serv-
ice.
Probably the most striking ad.
vance in the transport division
has been the development Of reg.
ular passenger service by the dir
igible Hindenburg over the Allan
tic and by the Pan-American Air
ways clipper ships over the
Pacific. Now, chances appear fav-
orable that heavier-than-air trans
portation will be introduced soon
over tNe Atlantic jointly by Pan
American AirwayS and the Eng
liSh Imperial AirwayS. The report
adds:
"Air transportation In the
United States during the past
year made tremendous strides.
Passenger miles flown are eSti-
mated at 439,0OO,000 against
3I3,9O6,O0O in 1885, q gain Of
1913 per cent. Passengers car
ried rose AT per cent from 747,-
900 in 1885 to 1,1OO, 900 last year.
Air mail volume increased to H.
100000 pounds from 13,276,O0O
in 1885, an advance Of 29.5 per
cent. But most impressive Of all
was the 1865 per cent gain in ex-
press, rising from $4,000
pounds in 1888 to 6,75O,O00
in 1886.

GOLD OUTFLOW
MOT LIKELY

Although four months have
passed since the former gold bloc
countries devalued or deprecated
their currencies, there has been
but little repatriation Of the for
eign capital lodged in the United
States. On the contrary, gold has
continued to come to this country.
While it cannot be denied that
the present uncertain political
situation prevailing in Europe pre-
vents a repatriation of foreign
capital, a more thorough analysis
by the Alexander Hamilton 1nsti-
tute indicates that, even if politi-
cal conditions were more normal,
a large scale repatriation could not
be expected.
According to the figures pub
lished by the Treasury, II per cent
of the total amount of foreign capt.
tai that came to this country from
January /, 1885, to September 30,
1886, originated in Canada, Great
Britain, Holland, Switzerland and
France. The movements Of funds
from Canada to this country and
vice versa are normal and there
is no reason to anticipate a with
drawal of Canadian capital from
this country in the immediate fu-
ture, the report said.
AS far as Holland and SWitzer"
land are concerned, an immediate
repatriation of their capital now
lodged in this country is not likely.
In both countries, the central
banks have relatively large none
tary stocks of gold and the ratio
of gold to demand liabilities
amounts to 95 per cent in the case
of Switzerland and to IS per cent
in the case of Holland,
The Washington times., 1937-01-25

tiOns forecast higher traffic in
all transportation branches dur
ing the present Year, nOtwith-
standing the lack Of funds that
threaten a curtaiIment of air
mail service on March 1. 1t is
difficult to believe that apprO-
priationS will fail to be made for
maintenance and even expan-
sion Of present mail service"
While the air transport busi-
ness is not yet profitable, many
units in 1885 converted red ink
figures into black. With volume
increasing steadily, the time is
not far distant when much larger
profits will be recorded, the re-
port said, adding that receipts
from the additional passengers
carried in the newer and larger
planes will advance more rapidly
than operation costs.
The aviation manufacturing di-
vision was aided materially in
1885 by orders placed by the
United States Army and Navy, it
was pointed out. Although ap-
propriations allotted to the Navy
Department for the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1887, have been
practically used up, Army plans
call for the purchase of about 500
planes between now and June 80.
Worldwide rearmament, with en-
phasis on the aviation branch,
strongly suggests that this coun-
try's expenditures on military
planes in the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1898, will be even higher
than the $81, 100000 allotted for
the fiscal year current.

SURPLUS CROP USE

Lonergan Asks Wallace to
Adopt Broader Policy
This Year.

Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
and the Surplus Commodities Cor
poration we're urged yesterday by Sen
ator Lonergan, Democrat, of Connecti-
cut, to adopt a broader policy this
year in acquiring surplus agricultural
products for distribution to needy
families on relief.
Agriculture has enjoyed abundant
crops this year. Lonergan said. only
to find that market prices on some
commodities have been lowered be-
cause OF surpluses He suggested q
survey Of all surpluses affecting fair
price level for farmers, and that such
products be listed as distribution
guide for the Surplus Commodities
Corporation.
Purchases by the government OF
products from that list in larger
quantities, and their distribution to
relief agencies. would maintain a
higher price level for farmers and pro-
vide food for those unable to buy COM
modities at any cost, the Connecti-
cut Senator said. The abundance Of
potatoes in the East was cited by
Lonergan as an instance in which
farmers find practically no market
for their product except at prices be-
low production cost.
Distribution of surplus commodities
to needy would be an effective emer-
gency step until Congress meets to
consider new agricultural program.
