HARDING STRONGLY SUPPORTS AVIATION Chie! Executive Again Voices Be- Lief That Great Future Is Coming New . York, July 17.—President Harding has again given evidence of his belief in the future of flying, The chief executive expects amazing de- velopments in air travel, and declares that each stage of development de- mands improved means of transport; he wants the United States to lead the world in commerclal aviation, He | has expressed these views in a letter | to the Aeronautical Chamber of Com- merce of America, the text of which follows: th He Pa no cl to no Iir BV | B President's Letter. “The White House, “‘Washington. “Gentlemen: “I find pleasure in adding a word expressive of my interest in aerial transport, and in the presentation of the subject which i{s being made by the Aeronautical Chamber of Com- | merce. The history of civilization is largely the history of communication. Each stage of progress seems to de- mand and develop improved means of transport. The steamship, the rail- road and the motor car have been de- vised and utllized. Now we enter a new phase. It {s a real distinction to America to be known as the birth- place of the airplane; it should be our concern that this art shall not lan- guish, but that in its practical ap- plication we shall lead the world. An amazing development will take place in the near future in the utilization of the air as a medium of transport and communication. As a government, we are aiming to provide this art with necessary guarantees of law, and with such facilities as may be possi- ble through the encouragement of airways and terminals. But for air transport quickly to achieve the im- portant place it is destined to occupy, it must have public interest and sup- port. I hope your efforts in this be- half may be productive of most grati- fying results. “Very truly yours, “WARREN G. HARDING.” Aeronautical Chamber.

Science In Motors, Possibly a score of factories today | have their own laboratories in which scientists are working with trained personnel making slight alterations in machines or motors, the chamber says in a statement given out in this city. These men are not seeking to| produce something radical, but rather | to improve the types which have jus- tified the basic principles on which they were built, Approximately 500 civilians are taking lessons in flying at eivilian avi- ation fields this symmer. The Cham- ber estimates that there are 1,200 civilian owned and operated aircraft in the country today. Price Coming Down.

Last year it was 55 cents, | and it is believed that the average this year will be about 50 cents, \ There has been slight increase in ter- minal facilities so far this year. The administration is encouraging local| landing flelds and national airways wherever practical. DEATH REPORTS NUMEROUS.
