This is what aviation of tomorrow means to the great cities. What will it mean to the rural community? That, too, is not hard to visualize if we look at what has already been future. The young folks growing up in the days of a war where aviation is the chief weapon will be ready to take over the controls when America flies for peace. The Civil Air patrol which is doing yeoman service as an auxiliary to the army and navy air force in patrol duty is also the foundation for an air trucking service which will link the rural communities to the great airlines of the future.

And Representative Randolph has a lot more bills up his sleeve which foreshadow activities to come and which will help bring aviation right down into everybodys backyard, figuratively speaking. One is for the creation of a national civilian air reserve corps. Another is to provide training for pilots and a third is for avia- tion training for high schools.

Because we want to look immaculate and feel cool, wash-abljecause weve found that only can give us that wonderful, cleanness, we are growing more and more to appreciate how completely washables attain to our ideals of perfect materials for perfect summer days. This summer well wear washables all day, every day and for late in the night. This season, more than ever before, we are discovering that there can be and is true aristocracy and a wealth of possibilities in sterling quality-kin- d linens, piques and other of the myriads of lovely weaves weve hitherto taken for granted. And now that the women of America have been led by designers and style creators to look upon washables as fabrics of beauty and a joy forever we are yielding utterly to their lure this season. Women who insist on being beautifully dressed no matter how busy their lives may be will appreciate at first glance the appeal of fine artistry and deft workmanship reflected in the three dresses illus- look es transportation. et Shipments Analyzed Representative Jennings Randolph ties in trains lace the skies and great dirigible airships will float from Los Angeles to Tokyo in 79 hours, from Chicago to Friedrichshaven in Germany in less than 60 hours. And from the small communities to main airports the smaller the little planes such as the Civil Air patrol now uses will carry the produce of farm and small shop to the metropolis. As a matter of fact the Civil Air patrol is already doing courier and small package transportation in connection with the war effort. As one Air Patrol official said: This probably is the only untapped transportation in the country. It is organized and ready. The light plane uses a minimum of aluminum and rubber on its small landing wheels and burns no more gasoline than the family auto and can be put to many uses. Just as the pick-u- p airmail service has begun to pay its way with steadily increased use, so this courier service by light planes is proving its value in the war effort.

This is the group which is benefiting by just one of the applications of the use of the airplane to small town life an undertaking that has just celebrated its third anniversary. I refer to the Service which brings airmail to the post office arid has already begun to pay for itself doing it. Many of these points have no airports. Hilltops, public parks and meadows serve.

(A wing command is established in each state) : A careful study was made of the needs of one company engaged in wartime production, says Mr, Hughes, and frequently sending for small emergency of shipments parts, tools, and materials by truck, motorcycle, or private car. In the month of April, 286 such trips were made. The total road mileage was 14,780 while the air mileage would have been 11,040. The road time was estimated at 422 hours and the air time at only 110 hours. The road cost was estimated at $1,700 and the air cost at less than hah! this figure.
