PRIVATE PLANES
INCREASE ASKED
Air Enthusiasts Say U. S.
Aid Would Help Develop
National Defense.

the ABSoclated FfeBs.
Organized aviation enthusiasts in
tend asking Congress to help build up
= fleet Of $4,000 private planes to re-
inforce the administration's prospec-
tive new defense measures.
Ohacials Of the National Aeronautic
Association, Is spokesmen for several
groups Of flyers. already have requested
Army and Navy support for the train
ing Of civilian pilots, reduced insur-
ance rates and other proposals.
They argued that a feet such as
they have in mind, representing . five-
fold increase Of the existing 10000
private planes. would make available
upward Of 100000 trained flyers for
military service In the event Of war.
Building the planes would 20 expand
the aviation industry that 1t could
meet quickly any wartime orders for
military craft, they asserted.
IT'S the cheapest form Of national
defense" William R. Enyart, associa-
ton secretary, said yesterday.
European Crisis Cited.
The European crisis brought out
clearly that aviation is the key to
military power. Germany and Italy
train youths as future flyers almost
from the cradle. In this country, only
military and commercial transport n.y.
ing has been given direct encourage
ment by the Federal Government.
1T is obvious that the Army's pres
ent lighting plane quota Of 1920 will
have to be increased materially soon,
but this will far from meet our needs.
This country has never gone in for big,
standing military forces. Civilian ny
ing is the answer.
Last year the United States built
only some 1000 civil planes. Of which
1900 were small craft Of the puddle
jumping variety.
European governments directly sub
sidise private flying. France pays part
Of the cost Of the plane and fuel.
Germany trains its flyers from child
hood, starting them with models and
then introducing them to gliding. As
long ago Is 1896. Germany had $4,000
or $4,000 registered glider pilots. The
United States had just 36l."
Urxe Youth Training.
Mr.. Enyart and Charles F. Homer,
association president, proposed An
American version" of the Nazi youth
training, substituting planes with
motors for sliders.
Army and Navy ofacials, although
expressing interest. declined to predict
what support would be given specific
proposals.
The aeronautic association ofnciAls
said this program would be proposed
to Congress:
/. An organized attempt by Gov
ernment and private agencies to
stimulate interest in aviation among
the approximately 2o,ooo,o 900 Ameri-
cans between the ages Of II and "a.
Z. Governmental assistance in flight
training, including preparation OF
complete manuals, and paying military
reserve pilots to train civilians.
3. More glider camps like that built
at Elmira, N. Y. with relief funds.
4. Reduction Of aviation insui ance
rates to the level Of automobile rates,
with the Federal Government under
writing any insurance company losses.
S. Construction of more and better
airports and an annual appropriation
Of 81, ,o0o, 900 or more for research and
development for the benefit Of private
flying.
s. Creation Of separate Senate aud
House committees to deal with aviation
legislation.

BEWARE ENGLAND,

British Propaganda Tries to

Says on Radio.
By the Associated Press.

SAN SIMEON. Calf, Oct. 22.-Eng-
LAM was accused tonight by William
Randolph Hearst OF flooding the
United States" with propaganda de-
signed to win this country's backing in
her current imperialistic worries
Winston Churchill's radio appeal last
Sunday to the United States, in which
he urged America to join with Great
Britain and France to halt the ae-
gressions OF dictator nations, was q
piece Of this propaganda, the publisher
indicated.
Speaking from his San Simeon home

the National Broadcasting Co. as 4

said:
England needs help: and where
should she turn for help except to good
old Uncle Sam, 30 sought after when
needed, 30 scoffed at and scorned in
all intervening times
Propaganda and Soft Soap.
English propaganda is again flood-

English propaganda is very subtle

part Of the Englishman's address In
which he said American reaction to

Mr.. Churchill Is very wrong in hi
estimates Of American ideas and in.

No Entanslements Urged.
There Is q great deal Of sense in
the mood and attitude of the majority
OF Americans, a great deal Of wisdom
in Americas policy Of attending to her
own affairs and keeping free from en-
tanglng foreign alliances. . In
failing to do so she would be repeating
the serious mistakes which involved
her in the calamitous World War.
Even those of us who had hopes OF
