Aviation BY JOSEPH S. EDGERTON. strated during the recent un- successful search by the Navy and Coast Oufird,‘wl!l&lthsufl aircraft and destroyers, for the ?flnfi’t m‘elily. with 11 men aboard, off California coast. m"i‘hou;h naval aviation searched ap- ximately 150,000 square miles, as mdlubber! measure square miles, no trace of the Fidelity has been found. Vanishing in the teeth of a gale off the fishing banks near Santa Barbara on November 21, the Fidelity apparently is numbered among those ill-fated vessels Wwhich have disappeared without leaving e, m’%l’gs%lvy began its search for the lost fishing vessel on December 6, con- tinuing its operations for five days. The afreraft carrier U. S. S. Langley, with its brood of planes, augmented by two additional scouting squadrons, went out while the seas were running high in the aftermath of the gale. Operating conditions were difficult and dangerous due to the heavy pitching of the carrier, making landings and take-offs haz- lous. .“;n spite of the fact that two of the lecutini squadrons were unaccustomed to the flight d Gooo may come from the black- est misfortune, as was demon- eck g( the Ii-l;lllg‘ sl“:.;‘: mparison to the great decks of ’e‘:r‘;’?!np.lfixmmn and Saratoga, and the further complication of the ship's rolling and tossing, there were no accl- dents during the search operations, ‘which involved 119 carrier landings and about 291 plane hours in the air. ing the search all planes operated at distances up to 100 miles or more from e carrier. u‘Xn addition to the search by the car- rler planes, naval aviation was repre- sented by seagoing patrol planes, which cannot operate from the carriers. Oon December 8, according to reports just Teceived here, six of the big patrol boats were in the air from 6 am. to % p.m., extending their operations to & distance of 425 miles off shore. Radio Test Valuable. It was in connection with the opera~ . fim: of the patrol planes that the most valusble benefits te future naval oper- ations were derived. Sent out from Pa- trol Plane Squadron 7, four of the fly- ing boats combined with their searc] activities the most thorough test of patrol plane radio equipment made in Tecent months. The search conducted by the patrol g‘hfl on December 8 is characterized naval aviation officials here as “the most comprehensive yet undertaken. ‘The area ed to the patrol planes extended to a point 435 miles on & direct line toward Hawail from the fleet base at San Diego. i “The planes have progressed in their navigation,” it was reported to the Navy, “to such an extent that the scouting line was maintained and ma- neuvered by signal with almost the ac- curacy expected of surface ships.” Four planes of the squadron averaged 13 hours and 5 minutes each on the flight, and during the entire search the | squadron flew a total of 121 hours. It was found that the poor function- ing of smoke bombs issued to the squadron constitutes a serious deterrent to the accuracy of navigation by dead reckoning. Radio bearings from Point Firmin, Point Hueneme and Point Arguelio were taken by the planes and were proved to be exceedingly accurate and reliable up to the limit of ranges. Bearings from the station at Imperial Beach, however, were found to be most unreliable, errors up to 14 or 15 degrees having been noted. Though their search was unsuccess- ful, the Navy pilots who participated have reaped rewards which will con- tribute to the efficiency of future oper- ations of naval ayiation at sea. Accu- rate aerial navigation is.the lifeblood of the aircraft squadrons while on sea duty and anything which serves to im- prove navigation methods or to reveal errors such as those revealed during the Pacific search is of benefit to every Navy pilot. Spring Maneuvers Planned. The Army and Navy flying services now-are in the midst of preparations for coming Spring maneuvers. Naval aviation will get its training with the fleet in tropical waters, with the U.S. 8. Los Angeles participating on its first ly military mission. The Army Air will use the Atlantic_seaboard battleground, Capital during one phase of its maneuvers. The officers ahd men of the squad- rons are wearing a most businesslike air these days. In the Navy squadrons, radio drills and tests, com- se‘:nunz of compasses, familiarization thts and the work of starting to move aboard ship are being carried out in ration for the coming Southern . Test flights have been con- ducted for high altitude anti-aircraft practices. In the Army squadrons, in addition to the checking of planes and instruments and the overhauling of equipment, preparations must be made for weeks of service in the fleld, away from home bases, under conditions ap- proximating those of war times. The dirigible Los Angeles has been operated by the Navy for seven years 88 a non-military aircraft, under the terms of the peace treaty. She has been used for experimental and train- purposes. Her assignment to duty with the fleet, though it will constitute s continuation of training activities, also will involve operations of a dis- tinctly military character. The Los Angeles is to leave the Naval Air Sta- tion, Lakehurst, N. J., her home base, sbout Pebruary 10. In Panama waters she will be based on the U. 8. 8. Patoka, which has been equipped with a steel mooring mast to handle the airship The Los Angeles has been given a thorough overhaul during the past few weeks, extending into every part of the ship. The rroxram has included re- | placement of old original German outside covering. Much of the original cover, however, is in serviceable condition. A Worthwhile Record. United States air transport lines during the last half of 1930 estab- lished a record for safety which might well be envied by any form of marine or terrestrial navigation. This was the fiying of some 60,000,000 passenger miles with only one crash fatal to passengers. In this crash. which oc- curred at night during a Pacific Coast storm, one woman passenger and a mechanic of the air line owning the lane, also riding as & passenger, lost ir lives. There were only two other fatal accidents in air transport op- erations during the six months. In each of these an air mail pilot lost his life. Both accidents also occurred dur- ing storms at night. ‘This splendid record is all the more encouraging when the two passenger deaths in a single crash are com- pared with the record for the first six months of last year. During that period there were six fatal accidents, which cost the lives of 5 pilots, a co- pilot and 22 passengers. Aircraft Radio Progress. Important progress has been made during the past year in the improve- ment of radio apparatus for use in airplanes. This progress has not been confined to radio communications alone, but has extended into the flelds of radio range beacons, direction-find- ing apparatus and blind landing aids. Some of the phases of progress in radio communications outfits for air- craft are described in a research re- $ort prepared by Francis M. Ryan, in gharge of development of aircraft ap- for one of the large labora- of the tion. Mr. has been in his work by the use of two planes, used to obtain necessary data on radio transmis- sion and reception and to test appa- T ne high speed of airpl d “The 5| of airplanes a their great dependence on weather,” Mr. Ryan explained, “make it neces- for to _have reliable com- X with the ground stations. installations present in airplanes |the short-wave bands between 1,500 and large areas of the 7-year- | many difficulties not met elsewhere. First, it is necessary to reduce gen- erators, transmitters, Teceivers, _an- tennae and other apparatus to light weight, small volume and minimum in- terference with the plane’s operating meters and controls. The apparatus must be absolutely reliable, as it is usually out of reach of the pilot, and repairs during flights are out of the question.” Due to the noise on most planes, he seid, mouthpieces of special design are necessary. In the hand-type mi- crophone developed for this use the rubber mouthpicce is held tightly over the lips and practically ail noise is excluded from the transmitter. The | closed cavity into which the pilot talks is so shaped as to avoid distortion of speech as much as possible. Head telephone receivers similar to | those worn by telephone and radio op- | erators may be used in airplanes, Mr. | Ryan continued. A more satisfactory headset has been developed, however, employing a phonette type of receiver originally developed for the hard-of- hearing. ‘These receivers weigh less | than an ounce and are connected with |small ear molds fitted to the ear of | the pilot. So that the pilot may leave the plane quickly in case of emergency, it _has been necessary to devise a plug which will provide good electrical con- tact in spite of heavy vibration and yet | which will pull out at any sudden jerk. | Small Generator Developed. A type of wind-driven generator to supply power for both filament and plates of the receiver has been devel- oped which is only 3 inches in diameter and weighs only seven pounds, complete with the propeller. To offset electrical interference from the engine ignition tem, it has been necessary to de- velop shielding which includes the mag- THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, AMERICAN HISTORY BY MOTOR— American Legion The U. 8. S. Jacob Jones Post, No. 2 the American Legion, recently turned over a scholarship to the American Le- glon Foundation for the Blind, and it was awarded to a young blind woman pursuing her studies in an institution of higher learning. The local post is composed of about 400 former Yeomen (F.) enrolled in the Navy during the World War. They have been interested in work for the blind for several years. They have devoted sev- eral evenings a month to shellacking braille sheets sent to the Library of | Christmas eve Past Comdr. John Lewis Congress, and recently formed a class neto, low-tension magneto _circuits, high-tension leads and spark plugs. It also becomes necessary to bond elec- trically all metal parts of the plane to avoid noises in the receiving equipment from intermittent electrical contacts between metal parts. If transmitting equipment is installed, the bonding also is necessary to protect against the pos- sibility of high voltages between ad- jacent metal parts producing sparks which might cause fire. Two types of radio apparatus now are in use generally in planes—a long- wave receiver for weather and radio- beacon signals, sent out from Depart- ment of Commerce airways and range stations on a band between 285 and 350 kilocycles, and a short-wave, two- way radiotelephone system for use in 6,000 kilocycles allocated for this pur- pose by the Federal Radio Commission. In Mr. Ryan's laboratories there has been developed an airplane radio trans- mitter weighing only 32 pounds, while the long and short wave receivers weigh about 13 pounds each. In both receivers remote control is accomplished by means of small units within reach of the pilot, and the receiving appara- tus itself may be located as much as 40 feet away. To operate the transmitter and re- ceiver, the pilot uses a_master switch having positions. In the first po- sition everything is cut off; in the sec- ond, normal in flight, the receiver picks up messages; in the third the appara- tus is made ready for transmission and reception combined. In order to talk the pilot must press a push-button, lo- cated in the hand microphone or on the stick, which starts the transmission ap- paratus. Foreign Airmail Planned. This year is going to witness a marked expansion of Uncle Sam's foreign airmail service if plans of the Post Office Department work out. United States mails are carried by contract over some 14,000 miles of foreign airmail lines in South and Central America and the West Indies. To this system will be added a trans- atlantic line and the first unit of a line through Canada, which eventually is to be extended across the Bering Strait through Soviet Russia to Japan and China. tmaster General Walter F. Brown noW is considering the revised specifi- cations for transatlantic service by way of the Azores. Last month bids were called for this pioneering ocean service, but the advertisements were withdrawn about a week before the date set for the opening because of “ambiguities” in the specifications. The redrafted advertisement now is awaiting only the approval of the Post- master General before being reissued. Bids are to be opened 60 days after the advertisement appears. The first unit of the great foreign airmail line through Canada will be lis-St. Paul and Winnipeg, with stops at Fargo and Grand Forks, N. Dak., and Pembina, Canada. This line wil form the last link in & system stretch- ing north and south for 11,000 miles, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, through the south temperate zone, the tropics and the north temperate zone into the sub-Arctic at Iklavik, Canadian Yukon, where mails have been carried by dog team. Airport Crop Good. There were few days during the past six_months that did not witness the completion of an airport or landing fleld in some part of the United States. According to a survey made by officials of the Aeronautics Branch, Depart- ment of Commerce, there were 125 afr- ports completed between July 15 and | December 31, bringing the total num- ber in this country to 1,782 airports and landing fields. One of the startling facts revealed by the survey is that Alaska now has more auxiliary landing flelds than any of the States, 63 fields of this. type being credited to the Territory. California leads all the States with 165 airports, Texas being second with 119 and Pennsylvania third with 94. Marine Corps Notes Brig. Gen. Dion Williams, president | of the Marine Corps Examining Board, | presided at the sessions during the past | weck, the board having had before it es of the following commissioned | | officers, who, being due for promotion, |are being examined as to their profes- sional qualifications, etc.: Maj. William C. Wise, jr, to lieutenant colonel; First Lieut. Richard Shubert to cap- tain, Pirst Lieut. George R. Rowann to captain. Capt. Prank B. Geottge, aide de_camp, is recorder to the board Staff Sergt. Victor Czgeka, who ac- companied Rear Admiral Byrd to the Antarctic and who is at present as- signed to aviation duties at Quantico, has been examined for promotion to the grade of Marine gunner (warrant officer), and in the event of being pro- moted in all probability will be con- tinued on aviation assignment. First Lieut. P. A. Shriebler while on leave has been stopping in the Capital. Steel Pens. The 1830 steel pens cost a shilling each in London, and i nthose days a shilling was a shilling. Though a quill could be bought for a halfpenny, the steel pen soon ousted it because of its shelved by the fountain pen.

The annual conference of the National Rehabilitation Committee of the Ameri- egion will be held here January 31 and February 1 and 2, according to announcement by Watson B. Miller, chairman of the committee. Besides the members of the Rehabili- tation Committee, representing the State _departments of the Legion throughout the country, there will be in attendance at the conference State serv- ice officials, commanders and adjutants of Leglon departments, and members of the American Leglon Auxiliary Reha- bilitation Committee. Prank T. Hines, administrator of veterans' affairs, and George E. Ijams, director of the Veterans' Bureau, will attend, as will many of the division chiefs of the bureau. It is anticipated that hearings before Congress on vet- erans’ legislation will be going on at the time of the conference and that those who wish will be given an opportunity to express their views as to pending measures for veteran relief before the appropriate committees of the House and Senate. The conference will hold its sessions at the headquarters of the National Rehabilitation Committee, 600 Bond Building. The proposed Presidents Club of Unit Presidents of the American Legion Auxiliary was perfected January 6 at the first meeting at the Hamilton Hotel. Those present were Mrs. Leon Arnold of Killeen Unit, Mrs. Edith O'Connor of Sergt. Jasper Unit, Mrs. Joseph H. Mime of Victory Unit, Mrs. Mary B. Corwin of McGroarity Unit, Mrs. Carl Werthmer of Nash Unit, Mrs. Margaret Nelson of Reese Europe Unit and Mrs. May D. Lightfoot of Henry C. Spengler Unit. Mrs. Josepn H. Mime was elected pres- ident and Mrs. May D. Lightfoot secre- tary. The name of the group is to be The Presidents Federation of the Amer- ican Legion Auxillary of the District of Columbia. By-laws were adopted and it was unanimously voted that the secre- taries of the units should be included in the membership, the meetings to be held on the first Monday of each month. Sixty disabled veterans, patients at Mount Alto Hospital, were entertained by the Sergt. Jasper Post, No. 13, the American Legion, last Tuesday evening | at 8 o'clock in the Red Cross House of that institution John J. McGinnis, chairman of the Entertainment Com- mittee, was in charge and among the members of the post present were | Comdr. Willlam A. Kehoe, Adjt. Earnest A. Golden, Finance Officer Paul H. Mc- Murray, D. H. Pratt, Hugh J. McCaf- frey, M. R. Rosedale, William L. Thomas, Dept. Comdr. of the Veterans of For- eign Wars Robert M. Huey and Ernest J. Bt. Jacques. A committee of the rgt. Jasper Unit, American Legion Auxiliary, assisted by serving refresh- ments at the conclusion of the enter- tainment. Invitations have been extended by the department commander, Dr. B. C. Mac- Neil, to Senator James E. Watson of Indiana and Senator Joseph T. Robin- son of Arkansas to be present on the occasion of the opening of the depart- ment bowling tournament, the Ameri- Fourteenth' street and Park road. De- partment Athletic Officer Francis J. McDonald is in charge of the tourna- ment and any ex-service man is eligible to enter. A Past Commander’s night was held last Tuesday night by George Wash- ington Post, No. 1, at its club house, 1441 Rhode Island avenue. The past commanders of the post acted as a Reception Committee and visiting_Legionnaires. The assemblage was called to order by Comdr. Willlam E. Porter at 8 o'clock. He then turned the gavel over to Past Comdr. Howard 8. Fisk, who acted as master of cere- monies during the evening. He presented t commanders’ jew- els to Past Comdr. Charles O. Shaw and Bernard C. McGee. ceremony was followed by those present standing in silence for one minute in memory of Past Comdrs. E. Lester Jones and Charles B. Hanford, whose deaths have occurred since their retirement from office. Tribute was paid to their ac- complishments in the upbuilding of the Legion by Past Comdr. Pisk, especially Past Comdr. Jones, who had the honor of being the first commander of the post and also the first department com- mander in the American Legion. The early history of the American Legion from the time of the formation of Gen. Pershing Post, No. 1, which was later changed to George Washington Post, No. 1, at the Cosmos Club on March 7, 1919, up to the present time was outlined by Mr. Fisk, at the con- clusion of which he referred to the work of each of the past commanders of the post and then introduced them to the audience in the order of their seniority. The past commanders each responded with short addresses which proved to be | among the most interesting features of | the evening. ‘The past commanders of the post in- clude the foliowing: E. Lester Jones, 1919 (deceased); John Lewis Smith, 1919; Kenneth A. McRae, 1920; How- ard 8. Pisk, 1921; Charles B. Hanford, 1922 (deceased): Lew S. Mohler, 192: THB ravine, once. but now a D.

Porter visited Naval Hospital and presented Past Comdr. Collins with a past com- mander’s jewel. A letter was read from him at the meeting. Mr. Fisk related the history of the flag presented to the post by Mrs. Henry R. Rea of Pittsburgh, Pa., while serving with the American’ Red Cross at Wal- ter Reed Hospital during and after the World War. The flag, he said, was pre- sented to the post on August 19, 1919, and had been in every American Legion parade from the first annual convention at Minneapolis in 1919 up to the present | time. The conventions at which it had | been present included the following: | Minneapolis, 1919; Cleveland, 1920; Kansas City, 1921; New Orleans, 1922 San Francisco, 1923; St. Paul, 1924; Omaha, 1925; Philadelphia, 1926; Paris, Prance, 1927; San Antonio, 1928; Louis- ville, 1929, and Boston, 1930, a total of 34,760 miles. He then presented the post with its twelfth silver staff band for the Boston convention and stated that the George Washingon Post was the only post in the Department of the District of Columbia with a 100 per cent attendance record. The guest speaker of the evening was John Thomas Taylor, vice chairman of the National Legislative Committee, who gave a resume of legislation before the present session of Congress and which was expected to pass. Other speakers included Dept. Vice Comdrs. Howard F. Bresee and Miss Marjorie Woodzell: | Post Comdrs. James H. Kehoe, Bureau | of Engraving and Printing Post; Dr.| Albert H. Parham, Kenneth H. Nash Post; E. P. Van Hise, Lincoln Post; W. | C. Ruff, representing Quentin Roose- | velt Post; Past Comdr. Francis F. Mil- | ler, Bureau of Engraving and Printing | Post; John B. Moon, Portland, Oreg., | Post, No. 1, and Royal W. Anderson, Denver Post, No. 23. Refreshments were ed. The regular meeting of Victory Post, No. 4, will be held Tuesday at Wood- men’s Hall, 935 Grant place, at 8 p.m. | Candidates will be mustered in and sev- | eral distinguished guests will discuss the | cash payment of veterans' adjusted compensation. Harry E. Smith of Cos- tello Post will exhibit four-reel war films, “America Goes Over.” Arrangements are being perfected for the annual ball of this gost February 16 | in the ball room of the New Willard Hotel. The committee in charge of the ball is: Past Comdr. W. L. A. Straw- bridge, chairman, and Comrade Walter D. Rodgers, vice chairman, represent- ing the post: Mrs. Thacker V. Walker and Mrs. Phillip Castle, representing the auxillary of the post, and Comrades James G. Barksdale and Willlam Opitz, | representing the drum corps. La Societe des Huit Chapeaux et Quarante Femmes met Wednesday at the home of Partner Mabel Staub, who had assisting her in entertaining Partners Helen Sprague and Amelia Boberg.
