He was to visit all the states Rnd to report to the federal government on the condition and availability of landing fields and on other aviation matters. Probably he hnd a good machine ; It Is to be presumed that he had the best available. And what did Eddie RIckenbacker report? Nothing, nothing at all. His machine was forced down four days In succession. Thefrupon he abandoned the trip. In Chicago, not tong ago, a local flyer took up a bridegroom and bride for a short flight. They were honeymooning and wanted the best there was going In the way of seeing the sights. The machine crashed. Both passengers were killed. President Harding was making an open-ai- r address recently In Washington. A commercial flyer took his plane full of sightseers so close that the President's voice was drowned out and so close to the vast crowd that had the plane fallen Bcores would have been killed and Injured. These are but three Incidents any issue of a newspaper will furnish mote which clearly Indicate, according to the experts, that aviation In the United States Is at loose ends and that the situation Is so bad that something really must be done about It. By way of emphasis to our own policy. the experts declare, Europe is dotted with landing places and lined with air routes. Euro- pean nations are stimulating commercial aviation with subsidies. On the other hand, according to the experts, the results of systematic development are shown by the fact that the air mall service of the Post Office Department has just completed a year without a single fatal accident, with 1,750,000 miles covered. In congress the Wadsworth-Hick- s bill Is pending. This provides for a United States bureau of commercial aviation. Out of congress the National Aeronautic association and the Society of Automotive Engineers are the drafting of an aeronautic safety code, with the assistance of experts of the bureau of standards. Pending the passage of the Wadsworth-IIick- s bill the draft of Its safety code is tentative, but its principal provisions will Include : Inspection of aviators and aircraft In connection with the granting of licenses to pilots and air transportation companies; prohibiting of dangerous proximity of aircraft in flight; rules governing personnel and equipment of airdromes, including medical and signal equipment; aircraft radio regulation rules for innding fields ; lighthouses for night flying and landing. In the senate the other day Senator Thomas J. Walsh of Montana read into the Congressional Record an article. Our Aviation Problem," contributed to the New York Times by Senator David I. Walsh of Massachusetts, saying that It was an Interesting discussion of the problem of aviation, pertinent to the discussion of the bill now before the senate. Senator Walsh of Massachusetts in this article says that what we now need is the consolidation of the Army and Navy departments Into the De- partment of National Defense, with a secretary at Its head, and three undersecretaries for the army, navy and nir. Here are some of the points made by, Senator Walsh of Massachusetts In the article: it Is regrettable that in or out of congress there Is so little interest in what our government is doing, or rather failing to do, to stimulate interest in aeronautical matters and to foster and encourage in every manner possible this most important means of defense and transportation which has come to. be generally acknowledged among progressive nations as of vital necessity to their commercial and industrial expansion and to their protection and prosperity. The inestimable value of this comparatively new science was demonstrated during the World war, and no one will deny that H must play an even larger part in any future C ontroversy between nations whether on land o! on the sea.

Adverse effects of the railroad situation are beginning to make themselves felt In the state road situation with particular reference to the two big jobs of construction work now under way in Carbon and Juab counties, respectively. Heretofore the supplies of sand and gravel for the cement surfacing, which are being imported into both counties from Salt Lake county, and chiefly from the state gravel pit at Mount, have been kept moving, and thirteen mor cars of these aggregates on the way. However, greater difficulty has been experienced In the shipment of cement, the greater portion of the supply of which comes through Ogden from the Ogden and Union Tortland cement plants at Baker and Devil's Slide, respectively.

We must bear in mind always that lor every one mind focused upon things aeronautical In this earlier period, some thousands of keen mind are now versed In With proper governmental encouragement, rapid progress seems Inevitable. e e e e aero-nautl- ca . ' Qttrnt progress has been made and rapid strides hrfve been taken in the development of this science. Many foreign nations, cognisant of the necessity and Importance of aircraft, have Initiated military programs and programs of mail and passenger transportation In the air far superior to the present policy of our government, and have done much to encourage the general development of aeronau- tics through governmental aid to commercial dustry. Great Britain particularly, very soon after th6 war, reached the conclusion that the dominance of the air Is at least of equal Importance with that of the seas and set about to plan a definite policy of aerial development and the of her aircraft activities, leading to the establishment of a separate ministry of air, which has taken the lead In practically every phase of aerial development. Economic considerations as well as those of natlonnl defense demand that the United States Immediately formulate a definite, comprehensive and Intelligent policy for the development of every phase of aeronautics and of actively encouraging the aerial transportation Industry, which Is vitally essential to the future progress and prosperity of the nation. To neglect longer the establishment of an intelligent policy Is inexcusable. d Because of the absence of any on our of the governprogram part sympathetic ment since the armistice, the American aeronautical industry, built up at such great expense of money and effort during the war. Is rapidly disappearing. The almost antagonistic attitude of our government toward this Industry has discouraged business men, and under the circumstances they were entirely Justified in withdrawing their money from this field. Ninety per cent of the aviation industry created during the war hns been liquidated, and unless a more sympathetic and is established withdefinite policy of out delay, it is inevitable that the remaining 10 per cent will also disappear. The future development of aerial navigation generally is in no way limited to military and naval functions, and the must at all times closest possible exist between the aeronautic agencies of the government nnd the commercial industry engaged In the production and development of aircraft. In July. 1919. an American aviation mission, which was formed at the instance of the then secretary of war to investigate and study all forms of organization, production nnd development of this science, submitted a report to the secretary of war outlining the results of their investigations. This report presents the results of the only aviation investigation ever made for the United States government. The findings of this commission were extremely unpopular with old army and navy and the conditions and recommendations ns incorporated in these findings are apparently as they were being entirely ignored by the present tlie past administration. They are frowned by and navy, upon by the general staffs of both army more even are sound that fact the of they in spite was made. today than in 1919, when the report The report was in part ns follows: well-define- . , oil!-cer- mission desires to "As a result of our studies, your op.nion of its membeis that emphasize ti e universal to safeguard the air action is lTiru'di.-aState.,, to preserve tor the of the t'nil-some henelit of I s great aviation of the war, and to premade during thi per lustry from ent.rely disvent a vitaliy necessary appearing. are vivaMy no more cualihed "Tint we, of today scale and development of the air- to the nto-s.-a- ry 1 , "The principal recommendations made by this commission, none of which have been adopted, and which were discredited rather than discouraged, were the establishment of a department of air, with a cabinet officer at Its head coequal In importance and In representation with the Departments of War,; Navy and of Commerce; the establishment of governmental institutions of education and training, including an air academy, all open alike under proper restriction to military, civilian and naval personnel, and the adoption of a system of circulating army, navy and clvU personnel through the national air service. Is not the time at hand to demand that an efficient. Intelligent and definite policy be formulated and carried out? "Those who have studied this matter thoroughly and fairly are of the opinion that this will be Impossible as long as our present policy of distributing our air activities among several govern mental departments Is tolerated, and It Is necessary thaf we have a reorganization of our national defense agencies If our future as an air power la not to be entirely eclipsed by other nations. Tlie Indifference of our government and the manner In which aviation is being discouraged and our aviation personnel demoralised may be appreciated from what has recently been brought to light in the navy. "As has been stated In the findings and recommendations of the aviation commission, heretofore referred to, any future war will inevitably open with great aerial activity on both sides. Lying as we are between two oceans, our first steps In war will be over the sea. Early In the war the disadvantages of having our Army Air Service as part of tlie Signal corps were recognized, and It was made a distinct and separate service of the army. As a result our Army Air Service is more efficient than it ever could have been otherwise as part of tlie army. If we are to uphold our defense over the sea we must have an nir navy. Our naval aviation service must be rounded out Into a distinct and separate corps, and then combined with our Army Air Service and our bureau of civil aeronautics Into a great, efficient t and national air service. "What we need now Is the consolidation of our Wnr and Navy departments Into a single Department of National Defense, with a Secretary for National Defense as Its head and an undersecretary for army, an undersecretary for navy and an undersecretary for air. Tlie underdepartment for air should have, in addition to tlie undersecretary for air at Its head; three subadministrntive officers: an assistant secretary for army air, an assistant secretary for nuval air and an assistant secretary for civil nir. Such an organization would not only foster between our greater economy nnd present army and navy, hut would create a grant, national air service. efficient and Such a service would carry with it a morale and a spirit equal to that of our Marine corps. It would facilitate the establishment of schools of strategy and tactics of the air nnd of study of the science of aeronautical engineering. It would give tlie personnel an opportunity to devote their attention to tlie It of tlie development of aeronautics. would rclnln all experienced aviators in tlie service. It would bring our present more or less disorganized and dissatisfied navy arid army aviation efficient and valuable unit into a of our armed forces.
