WASHINGTON, NOT. 37 UP).- -A recommendation for legislation to facilitate promotion of army air officers was made today by P. Trubee Davison, assistant secretary of war, who said that otherwise many officers would resign. Characterizing the question as "the most pressing problem affecting the air corps," the assistant secretary, who is in charge of the aeronautics branch of the department, said in his annual report that the officers are iwrforming duties "out of all proportion to their rank." The report said also that operations during the last fiscal year, ended June 30, had been seriously curtailed by lack of airplanes and poor condition of hangars and other essential equipment "The primary objective of the air corps in time of peace," the report added, "Is to be ready for immediate and effective operation in time of emergency." At the end of the last fiscal year, the report said, there were 1143 officers and 10.890 enlisted men in the air corps, with 1273 airplanes on hand and 301 ordered. Members of the army air corps and the air corps reserve flew a total of 263,381 aircraft hours last year, or more than 26,300,000 miles, with 60 fatalities which included nine regular officers, thirteen reserve officers, one naval officer, thirty-si- x enlisted men of the regular army and one enlisted man of the reserve corps. "It is significant that fewer regular army pilots were killed than in any year on record," the report said, "in spite of the increased number of flying hours." IDAHO FALLS, Idaho.

All five of the company's factories in the upper valley are being operated this fall for the first time In several years.
