Americas Air Lines

The United States pioneered in
the introduction of the new
method of transportation-the
airplane. In the comparatively
short time since the Wright bro
theirs first successfully flew
their plane at Kitty Hawk, North
Carolina, the airplane has de-
monstrated that it has become
an ever increasingly popular
method of transportation. Dur
ing the late val this country
through its methods of mass pro-
duction amazed the world with
its ability to produce untold
thousands of planes which
brought victory to the allied
cause. Turning from war to
peace the airplane promises to
largely take the place Of other
methods of transportation, and
particularly on long hauis Of pas
gengers and freight, other than
the bulky cafBoes.
America properly has set out
to have its planes lead the rest
Of the world in this peacetime
transportation as it did in the
waging of warfare by air. There
are now daily flights being made
between London and this coun-
try, and before long United Stat
es planes will be making SINH
lar runs daily to France, Hol-
land, Belgium and the Scandi-
naviln countries of Denmark,
Norway and Sweden. Also, it
will not be many months be-
fore American planes will be con-
Meeting Paris, France with BerHe,
Switzerland and thence on 10
Rome, Athens and Cairo. 1t is
then foreseen that this route will
be extended to Spain, North AT
RIGA and other points in the Mid
die East. There is another ambi-
tious program to install Ameri-
can airlines to travel from our
west coast to the far points of
the east--the Philippines. Japan
and China. And this is as it should
be.
In this connection it might be
interesting, and we hope pardon
able, to mention that a great
deal of this has been made pos
sible by the recent change of
policy of the British to permit
our planes to freely land in its
possessions. 1t will be recalled
that up until a few weeks ago
Great Britain, with its eyes on
the protection of British airlines,
had opposed such free air inter-
curse between this country and
its possessions. Our Postwar
Committee which visited Eng
land and Europe a few months
ago took a decided stand against
this British policy and econ
mended among other things that

and free travel of the planes of

other countries to and from this
country should be lifted as a con-
dition to assist Britain and these
other countries in getting back
on their feet economically. We
are advised that this reeommen-
Clifton and insistence on our
part largely influenced that
change of front by Britain.
However, Russia, for which we
made the same recommendations,
has in this instance, as in many
others, continued to refuse to
permit our planes TO land in its
country or those countries dom
mated by it. Incidently, on the
occasion OF the conference of
our Committee with Generalissi-
mo Stain we raised this ques-
ton but Mr.. Stain evaded it,
as he did some other questions
which we propounded to him.
The result is that unless Russia
agrees to this freedom of the air
as Britain has Americas propo-
sal to operate other lines which
would necessarily have to cross
Russian territory Or countries
dominated by Russia, American
airlines will be stopped short
of completely covering the
world, and the highly desired
program of freedom of the air
for all nations cannot succeed.

The boat builder set no date for

however, that recent action by the

ordering an election to determine
q collective bargaining agent "gives
us incentive and encouragement to

Mr.. Reilly in his dissenting opin-

1t may earn on its. investment and
