'ust what is first aid?

Just what 18 nrSt AID?
According to the American Red
Cross, 1t Is the first line Of defense
against the enemy-accident. Well,
perhaps not the very first; there is
prevention; but when prevention
has failed, first aid certainly comes
next. That is to say, 1t does, pro-
vided some one is at hand who knows
how to apply it. 1t Is the purpose
Of the Red Cross, through its First
Aid Life Saving and Accident Divi-
sion, to make sure that someone
will be at hand who does. The Red
Cross has many branches scattered
throughout population centers Of
the country, one Of the most impor-
tant being right here. 1t is housed
in building of classic architectural
design at 1870 e street NV.
The Red Cross conducts Its az
fairs after the fashion Of good
businessman, who is never complete
ly satisfied with business as it is,
but is ever on the alert for expan-
sion. It is not content to put out
bulletins on first aid and let it 60
at that. 1t does publish such PAM
phlets, but it also conducts practical
classes, not only to teach the sub
ject, but to teach others to teach
others to teach others to teach 1t, in
a theoretically endless network until
every one in the Nation has been
reached.
Naturally, complete coverage has
not been attained, and probably
never will be, but that doesn't worry
the Red Cross unduly. In each OF
its branches it places a livewire Or
ganizer to get classes going and
keep them going with new material
Mr.. Robert H. Duncan, in charge Of
the local branch, in an interview
explained his viewpoint.

If you know how" declared Mr.. King,
as. with one quick twist, he loosened
a stubborn bolt on the wheel. Wear
ing overalls, slacks and riding
breeches, the motor transport class
proves its sincerity of purpose by
its utter unconcern over broken
nails. strained backs or grease
smeared faces. No one trusting
future transportation by automobiles
to chauffeurs graduated from the
A. w. v. S. motor transport course,
may fear unreached destinations
due to failing engines. The A. w.
v. S. girls will always know what
to do to keep their cars on the move.

"One thing I want to be sure to
get across: We do not suggest even
remotely that we want trained op-
orators because a blitzkrieg is COM
ing here. We want them to serve
not during the invasion of the
United States by foreign powers, but
against a peril already here-acci-
dent"
Horse Sense Values.
Mr.. Duncan then explained that
so-called horse sense is not sufn-
cient to utilize in treating accident
victims. Horse sense is wonder
full thing" he said, "and as a matter
of fact, actually forms the basis Of
our instruction, but it can be abused.
Let us say, for instance, that a
man Is knocked down by an auto
mobile. Onlookers rush up to help
him. Nine times out of ten their
first thought, which they would in
sist is just plain common sense, is
to get him off the roadway and over
to a curb. Surely he Will be more
comfortable there, they say, and Ger
tainly safer.
He may be safer, but it is open
to doubt If he will be more comfort
able. The real question, however,
should be neither of these consider
ations-it should be Can he be
moved without the risk of increasing
his injuries?' And the answer may
well be MOL"
He related the case Of a man
struck by hit-and-run driver, and
carried into nearby house by trio
Of well-meaning ladies. BY the
time the doctor had arrived the man
was dead. Nothing extraordinary SO
far, you may say-but wait! An au-
topsy showed that simple leg frac-
ture had been so aggravated by the
mans removal that he had bled
to death. whereas if he had been left

sense approach to a problem no con-
stituted authority would touch.
With the Inauguration of service
at Washington National Airport on
fuu-time schedule, an event which
is to be celebrated on an interna-
tional scale, a significant event also
will be taking place, without fanfare
or public attention, at Washington

Left behind in a march Of progress
which has resulted in the construc-
ton Of the $l3,000,00o Washington
National Airport at Gravelly Point,
Washington Airport soon will write
"fnis" to a long career Of great serv-
ice to the Nations Capital. With
its passing will come the close Of an
interesting chapter in the early
romance of American air trans
portation.
Washington Airport is unique
among major American airline ter
minals. It is one Of the few COM
mercial airports serving a major
city's air transport requirements.
It has served those requirements
long and well in the face Of the most
discouraging obstacles. Some phases
Of its career have had an almost
musical comedy Fundamentally the
struggle over Military road, which
formerly bisected the airport. and

commended by Federal and civil
aviation leaders for skill and effi-
cheney, and the airport control tow
er has been rated unofiicially as one
of the best, II not the best, in Amer
lea.
Since Washington Airport was &C
quired, some years ago, by National
Aviation Corp. Of New York, it has
been operated under the manage
ment of Samuel J. Solomon Of this
city. Although newcomer to avia-
ton at that time, Mr.. Solomon has
gained national recognition as one
of the country's outstanding air
port managers. Washington Airport
is one of the very few in the coun-
try which always have returned a
profit to owners-a fact which is
regarded as a tribute to Mr.. Solo,
mons efficiency and judgment, in
view Of the obstacles which have
prevented full and proper devel-
opment Of the airport to meet the
growing demands, Of air transporta-
ton.
Present Schedule.
Today Washington Airport is han
ding $50 scheduled daily airline ar
rivals and departures-an average of
one airliner every 10 minutes
throughout the "a hours. Private
airplane and n-scheduled air op-
erations have grown to between
1900 and 1890 a week, according to
ofncial Civil Aeronautics Board
figures. This total is greater than
that at the 100000 La Guardia
Field, New York's new air termi-
nal, which does not handle private
operations, however.
Whereas the limit of capacity OF
washington Airport was supposed to
have been reached several years
ago." Mr. Solomon said, "our volume
OF air trafiic has been expanding
continuously. The limit Of capacity
never has been reached-aside from
the limitations placed by weather.
The truth is that the management
Of airports and the science of air
transport operations is developing
differently from what we had sup
posed would be the case and is vet
too young for us to know definitely
anything about the ultimate limit
Of capacity Of any airport"
MIR. Solomon, in addition to his
successful handling Of the affairs of
washington Airport. also is a vice
president Of Boston Maine Air
ways and will continue in that ca
pacity, but will not leave Washing
ton. This airline was organized by
Amelia Earhart, Paul F. Collins and
Mr.. Solomon.
The closing of Washington Air
port Is an event In aviation worthy
OF much more than a passing glance.
In its way, it has played vital
role In the development Of Ameri-
can air transportation and It's career
has been full Of drama, color and

Stamps From Ghost Towns
Popular With Collectors

During the country's development,
numerous towns mushroomed as
various industries began. Some
flared for a short time and were
then deserted; others kept growing
and are now our leading cities. The
collection Of stamps and covers post
marked in the former type of com.
munity, Familiarity referred to as
"ghost towns" is a popular phila-
telic specially.
Pit Hole City, Pa, is one of these
"ghost" towns. In 1865 oil was dis
covered by the side of Pit Hole
creek. The town grew overnight
into community of about 10000
inhabitants and handled more mail
than any other city in the state. ex.
cept Pittsburgh and Philadelphia
1t was q town Of rough shacks. barn.
like hotels and gambling palaces.
Whisky and oil flowed generously.
and hundreds of fortunes were made
from the Pit Hole petroleum wells
and promptly lost In the gambling
halls.
Philatelic covers are the only re-
minders Of this once-aourishing city
because q rickety church building
Is the only structure that now re-
mains on the site. Pit Hole City
became "ghost town" In 1867 only
two years after 1t sprang up.
