DIMIGIBLE USE IN COMMERCE Investigation Ordered by Coolidge Expected to Bear Fruit. . By DAVID LAWRENCE. (Copyright, 1925, Consolidated Press Association.) SWAMPSCOTT, Mass., Aug. 12.— President Coolidge has given his hearty endorsement to the idea of using dirigibles and aeroplanes to carry On commerce in the air. The president has not yet de- elded the extent to which the goy- ernment can aid private enterprise in developing commercial aviation, but he has asked the secretaries of navy and commerce to Investigate the problem thoroughly and report to him. Three separate groups have laid their plans before the president, but only one of them contemplates the use of dirigibles. It so happens that the “Ios Angeles,» which was ‘built by Germany, can not be used for military purposes under the terms of the Versailles treaty whereby she iven to the United States. So my and navy really are unable to make much use of her and her yalue les chiefly in experimental navigatoin. The Shenandoah, on the other hand, will continue to be used by the navy for any purpose was whatsoever, as she is American- built.

Secretary Hoover is thoroughly absorbed in the possibilities of com- mercial expansion which has fas- cinated the chief executive. he use of dirigibles for fast mail and passenger traffic is only a small part of the ultimate projects because in the transfer from point to point of parcels and freight is seen the best supplement that yet has been de- veloped to railroad and steamship transportation. The government has still another idea in encouraging air transporta- tion, Ever since the war, the cry has been that the real weapon of defense is a well-equipped and up-to- date air service, The row raised by General William Mitchell this year about the value of airplanes as against battleships is but a symptom of the whole debate that is yet to come on the subject of air warfare. While Amreica has no idea of using any weapons of defense for aggres- sive purposes, there is no doubt that the proponents of national de- fense have made a deep impression with ‘their argument that the At- lanti® and Pacifjc are not such powerful lines of defense after all, when a dirigible and an airplane can make the trip in such relatively short time. The development of antl-air craft Weapons goes on feverishly as a sort of confirmation that invasion from the alr is no longer a theory but a fact. Ever since the war, the Washing: ton government has been worried as to how best to develop the air ser- vice without spending extraordinary sums in that direction. Some of the aviation experts have insisted that it was a duty for the govern- ment to make aircraft so as to keep factories intact. It was a virtual subsidy which they advocated, but no alternative seemed possible un- less the aricraft industry could find an outlet in commercial uses. The prospect of using planes and dirigibles in commerce meets, there- f with unbounded enthusiasm because it solves a problem. It means that all the best talent de- voted to aircraft and dirigible build ivz will be drawn to this country and that the American government will get the benefit for defense pur poses of airplane factories and train ing schools for commercial aviators ja i moorings for dirigibles Jand paraphernalia, needed in lighter-than-air transportation The government can be expected to Iend a helping hand’ to commer clal aviation, even to the extent of leasing the “Los Angeles’ on terms that may pay well as an investment and lead to the building of other air. ships of similar type. pee a altnank LATE SPORTS | WASHINGTON, Aug. 12,—(Asso- clated Press),.—Deportation proceed- ings against Battling Sikt, the Sene- fighter, have been ordered uriless he leaves the country of his own yolitio ST.

There never has been a summer like the present one for tourists. The roads are fairly black with thom, Secretary Hoover, of the de- partment of commerce, returning recently from a trip through the west, sald that. he saw automobile campers everywhere. The same re- port¥ come from the south and the east. Hotel proprietors say their business from overnight tourists this year is more than double that of a year ago. Improved road conditions, greater prosperity. of the people as a whole, the presence of what may be called “easy money” and the increasing desire of the American family for a vacation, all are accounted as fac- tors in the heavy auto travel to be observed everywhere. August is the real vacation month in the United States and the rall- roads are reporting heavy travel on their lines irr all. directions, The in- crease of train “tripping,” however, has not kent pace with the multipli- cation of vehicles on the road. The latter traffic 1s resulting in far more accidents than were record- ed in 1924 and the toll of deaths Is mounting daily. There are not only the deaths to pedestrians caused by automobilists, but the appalling toll being taken of the riders themselves. Despite all the precautions and warnings at grade crossings, the tide of death in this’type of crash is ruaning steadily at the flood.

States and counties have made an effort to pile up mileage in road construction and in this wa have made their highways as nar- row as possible, so as to string them out as long as possible with the same amount of money. ‘The unwisdom of this course is being realized at last and widening work is in process in many Iveali- ties. But no matter what the width of the road, certain drivers will drift just as.certainly and just as disas- trously to the wrong side, as a moth hovers about a flame, State traffic authorities are just about at their wits’ ends to handle the horde of summer motorists. They ‘say the most discouraging thing in the world is to read the daily records of new car outputs. Where all the machines are going no one can say. There 1s bound to be a limit somewhere.
