IN MEMORIAM

IN MEMORIAM
In memory of my dear husband,
James P. Davis, who departed this
life one year ago, December IL, 1910.
No one knows how much l miss you
No one knows the bitter pain,
| have suffered since / lost you
Life has never been the same.
Years of sacrifices, little of play,
Loving and giving and smoothing the
way;
Memories are treasures no one can
steal,
Parting brings heartache no one can
heal

One Councilman added that sling

Mayor Kitchens asked an amend

youths have been shooting out VIM

Several mailmen have been shot
at. One Of them told me he was

was operating"

well over 100000 troops spirited
from this country for the protec-

Continuing with what can be done
by smaller planes, he said:
"As a result of tests at Fort Ben
ming, Ga, and Fort Sam Houston,
Tex, it has been shown that a war
strength infantry battalion with
complete arms and ammunition and
other supplies can be transported
in so airplanes Of the ordinary
standard types-providing that four
of these are modified to two-door
types to accommodate infantry bat
talon guns"
For defense in shutting armed
forces, guns and military equip
ment across Americas great dis
tances he said transport cargo
planes would be invaluable.
Air Freighters Big Asset.
Mr.. Looming asserted that the
military mind" with perfectly good
intent threatens to overlook this
possibility by failing to support the
development of commercial airlines
and freight-carrying commercial
planes. The freight-carriers, he de-
clared, would be military assets at
all times.
At the end of the present emer-
gency, he said, the enormous pro-
duction facilities that will have been
developed will need to find market
and that no market will be more
tempting than that Of cargo-carry-
ing by air.
The air cargo business, he as
serted, has scarcely been touched,
He charged that Americas aior
railroads, through the Railway EX-
press Agency, have at present a
clear monopoly of aircraft cargo
carrying; and that this monopoly is
operated on a price-fiXing basis.
