AirIines 10 Be Firsl ToLand on Their Feei
 After v-EDay Arrives

As for personal transportation, more than half the autos on the road today are over seven years old. There are less than ten thousand nsw cars (1942 models) left. After even conversion starts, it will be mcnths running into years before the "car of tomorrow" gets into the field of competitive transportation.
 With vE-Day, cargo ships should be a drug on the world market, but it will take months and years to build up the passenger fleets that cnca cruised the Seven Seas, espec- ially those luxury liners.
 But what about the airlines today and tomorrow? I've polled three that have key offices here. Here are s-me figures to null over: (unless otherwise designated, all planes re- ferred to are the DC-3's that you've seen around for years).
 Transcontinental and Western Air one of our major coast to coast lines, once was reduced to the sad plight of having only 25 planes in service. In the last year, the Army has given them back l9 planes and they also now have five "strato- liners" Cfour- engine fast, high cruis- ers).
 American Airlines had 79 planes on Pearl Harbor day; was reduced to 45 by Army communicating orders; has since had fl turned back to them. That makes a. fleet now of 84
 United Airlines went into the war with fleet of 70 planes tabout 15 of these were small jobs) They now have had 31 returned to give them fleet of GA of the big two engine johs.

WASHINGTON, May 4.-When this war is over, airplane service will Le the first of all the forms of trans portation to recover, and undoubted- lv will be far ahead in moderniza- . ton before any of the road, rail CT water services can get back to par
 This isn't idle prediction. The facts are already before us. One is that almost all of the airlines now are as well or better equipped than they were on Pearl Harbor day To forestall any quarrels with this let me hasten to add that there ere. and may be for some time, man. power problems and ekuipment and supply posers to provide plenty Of headaches for the commercial op- cratc1c.
 But let's look at the overall pie ture. The trucking industry is suf- fering from obsolete equipment, shortage of trucks, tires, fuel, spare parts and manpower u'm not going to repeat manpower all the way through; everybody's short of thaD Once industry starts reconversion the trucking business will have a fairly quick recovery, but it will take time to repair the worn-outS high ways and construct new super highways which make this form of transportation highly -competi- tive.
 The railroads of this country have done magnificent war job, in spite of grumblings to the con- trary by travellers and shippers. But they have done it with program of use it up---make it do-wear it cut. The amount of new equip ment, roadbeds and new rails they need is staggering.
