S. on Eve of Quickened Development of Transport Through the Air. Charles L Lawrance, Per- fecter of Air-Cooled En- gine, States His Views. BY M. S. RUKEYSER. Alr travel has the experi- mental stage, and airplane manu turers are at length planning quantity producticn and quantity sales of flying machines A gen on which has just adjust ed itself to the notion that it is fea ible to call London on the telephone has ceased to look upon human flying as an object of wonder. Passenger air travel In Europe is well established, and in the United States, where the airplanc was invented, the period of retarded growth Is fast giving way to kened development. I journeyed over to Puterson, N, J., the” other day to discuss the future of this fascinating industry with president of the Wright Aeronautical Corporation, which makes half the airplane motors produced in this country. Incidentally, the Wright Corporntien has just com- pleted readjusting its program, and now manufacturers motors exclusive .. Heretofore it also made finished pianes, but the management, desir- .ug to be in a position to sell all the | arplane manufacturers, decided to | stop competing with its customers. The Wright Corporation fu shes motors to the Ford Co., and to the Army and Navy. Foresees Great Development. he country is on the verge of a development in r transporta- Mr. Lawrance, an enterpri r of 43, who gives the appear- ance of belng even more youthful than he is, said. Mr. Lawrance has light blue eyes, brown mustache and hair, and is a dynamic bundle of energy and enthusiasm. “Nothing re mains to be done in the matter of ex- tending air travel but to go ahead and do it. Commercial aviation Is safe The accidents you hear of oceur chief. 1y in military and naval circles, where great chances are taken, “Last venr alrplanes in which our motor was used flew more than 1, 750,000 miles in commercial and ivate ayiation without a single ae- cident, and with only threo forced | landings. “The next developments in air vel will be in extension of the mail service, and In developing of expre and fast freight pervice. Passenger service will be ineidental for awhile, because passengers are the most ex- pensive and the least profitable to carry. In order to develop passenger service on a large seale it is neces- sary to devise comfoitable machines of very high speed capacity in order to offset the strong winds that are encountered In this country. Train service is so rapid in this country that the time saved through airplane travel is less striking than in Europe, Moreover, in Europe, where the winds are less severe, flying gives an op- portunity to obviate the delays and annoyance incldental to passing in- termediate frontiers,” Interested in Technical Side. .Mr. Lawrance is -interested pri marily in the technical side of the business. After having been grad- vated from Yale University in 1905, M passed and then returned to New Lawrance studied for three years | HARLES L. LAWRANCE. President Wright Aeronautical Cor- York to engage in the practice of engineering. After the outbreak of he war in Europe he launched the Lawrance Aero Engine Corporation, which was merged with the Wright Aeronautical Corporation in 1923. Mr. AWrance’s own company was la responsible for the present day de- velopment of the afr-cooled engines. Mr. Lawrance was one of the first in this country to recognize the value of this type of engine, and spent a onsiderable amount of time In solv- ing the problem of constructing’ a sessful automotive power unit of at design, The Wright company is now speelalizing in the production of air-cooled engines. Half the company’s production now goes to the Army and Navy and half to commercial uses. Mr. Lawrence declared that the trend in commercial aviation was reflected in the sales of his compuny. Three years ago, the company sold 10 engines for commer- cial aviation, two_years ago, 85; last year, 106. 1n 1927, Mr. Lawrence expects that the company will sell between 200 and 250. Company’s Profit Good, I asked Mr. Lawrenee concerning the profits his company was making on the basis of recent production schedules; Tn 1926, he revealed. tho any earned a net income of about approximately the same as in the previous year. Of this, $500,000 | resulted from operations, and the rest of income ' from other chiefly investments. Mr. ¢ anticipates that Increased production will bring down the unit cost Recent contracts made by the American Express to transport pacR- ages by alr from New York to Chi cago and the decisfon of the Post Office to put a flat charge of 10 cents on air mall, irrespective of destina- tion, are likely to quicken the develop- ment of aerial transportation. As far as passenger travel is con- cerned, Mr. Lawrence helieves the firsy step will be to connect districts where the train service is poor, thus cutting down the time of transcon tinental travel. FEventually, he be- lieves that passenger air service be tween the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts will be_instituted, Mr. Lawrence also expects a wide spread use of airplanes by {ndividuals for utilitarian purposes and joy ridin, but thinks that a limiting factor wil' be the fact that to be a good pilot an individual must continuously keep in practice. sted Baltimore Markets BALTIMORE, February 6 (Special). —Reeeipts of white potatoes continue moderate, but ample for trade wants the market rules easy with no chamge in values from last week at 2.75 to §.00 per 100 peunds for \reII graded . 1 stock, and 1.25 to 1. for No, but eulls and run of lxe| 10t desirable and of frregu lar value, Market for sweet potatoes and yams rule easy and top prices of 2.00 to 2,50 barre] for the former, and 1.50 to 2.00 barrel for the latter are obtainable only on good dry stock.

By the Assocter ¢ NEW YOMK, February prices continugd easy during th week, the decline extending into semi- finished steel. In some guarters the lower price levels attracted increased buying; railreads and ofl companies being credited with a better consum ing interest. Fabricated structural isteel demand was relatively light and below the average for several months Pig iron activity centered largely in | suall lots buying and prices were | easler. Copper has been extremely weak and unsettled with prices showing de- clines of about one-half cent for the | week. Considerable business is said to have been done around the 13 cent | level early in the week, but later bt ers showed little interest and prces were scaled down to 12% cents for electrolytic delivered at (onnecticut Valley points. The steady decline | evidently shogk the confidence of buy ers and the lower price levels failed to stimulate demand. Producing in- | terests were quoting 123 ocents for | electrolytic at the end of the week, but there were rumors that the price might possibly be shaded. Tin was higher although unsettled at times in sympathy with the lower trend to steel and the weakness of copper. The higher levels curtafled interest with demand largely for prompt requirements, - impar- Press, Lead was steady. Several tant producers were understood to be contemplating a reduction in output. Zinc was quiet and the tone a trifle | better. Producers were maintaining values with' the smaller output. Antimony was higher again with the firmness of silver and the reports that the Chinese government was ex- pected to increase export duties soon. There was some buying interest in the March-Aprii arrival positions. { Protection of Ax | by FINANC Donation in Turkey.
