It affects ‘evety phase of our foreign an@ domestic commerce. We are at the thresh- old of perfection in air transportation. We do not seem to realize what that means. Cali- fornia and Oregon were made an integral part of the United States by the completion of the Pacific railroad and the Western Union Tele- graph line to the Pacific Coast. Fast trans- portation, with quick and easy communica- tion, has made this country great. Air transport will make Europe, Asia, South America and Polynesia our next-door neighbors. Shanghai is not as far from San Francisco by air as New York is by rail. Rio de Janeiro is closer to Miami by air than Chicago is by rail. We must seals what this means te 0 the past 20 years we have frantically tried-to restore our ocean trade and merchant marine. We are still trying. Had we realized what we had with the old clipper ship, and had we fol- lowed through with the new type of trade ship, we never should have lost our trade su- prémacy on the sea. "Here is our opportunity to restore that trade. Air transport makes us near neighbors to Europe, Asia, South Amer- ica and Australia. Let us not overlook the domestic im- portance of air transport, either. We must not make the same mistakes that we have made with the railroads. Regulation with them came almost too late, and we are still experimenting with it .. 2 vand'litds high time for it to, be recognized as .){,a-pubjic necessity and given a permanent place in or, national transportation system. ae land, France and Russia all realize what, air transport means to national defense.
