block south of the Nine Mile

He expressed the opinion that

Will Name Attaches
The State Departments recent

applauded by Ryan as "one OF the
most constructive measures taken
for the advancement of American
aviation"
Attaches will be stationed IN

The attaches, 1t was said, will
aid American manufacturers to OBJ

The popularity OF American
