WASHINGTON, May 81. (UP)-
Rear Admiral John H. Towers, chief
of the Naval Bureau Of Aeronautics,
reported today the navy had BATS
airplanes of all types on hand May
/, compared with 2,172 on July /,
1910.
In a progress report to, Secretary
of Navy Frank Knox, Towers said
there was an existing shortage OF
pilots which would be overcome in
January, 1542, by the navys eX-
panded pilot training program.
Towers said 996 planes were deliv-
cred to the navy and marine corps
in the first four months of this CAL
endar year, as compared with 70
in the corresponding period of 1910.
Towers said the present pilot out
put is 200 a month, but after Janu-
airy. 1912, the expanded training
program would supply reserve in
advance of requirements for an
eventual navy goal of $4,000 planes.
The student entry rate for pilot
training on May l, 1910, was 100
month. On the same date this
year it had been stepped up to 500
a month and in July it will be in
creased to 800. Towers said approx

mately 25 per cent of the flying
cadets are discharged before the
end of the rigid, seven-monthS
training period. The entrance rate
of 800, therefore, will yield about
500 pilots a month, he added.
Towers reported that the navy was
operating six major air stations and
small number of other facilities
in 1899, and now has expanded to
70 locations, with a chain of bases
from Newfoundland to the Pana-
ma canal zone in the east, and
from Alaska, down the Pacific coast
and west to the Philippine Islands
in the Pacific.
The navy has signed $83 3,625, 900
worth of aviation pant expansion
contracts since the start of the ma
tional defense program, he said, and
has additional. contracts pending
totalling $56,272 900.
Knox announced that new naval
reserve officers training corps units
will be established at eight colleges
and universities.
Operations will begin with the fall
semester at the University of Colo
