Hartford and a number of other industries around the state are building engines and accessories in connection with avia- tion.” Governor Trumbull told his hear- ers that the practical phase of avia- tion which first appealed to him was the fact that New England depends a great deal on transportation. “New Britain is one of the lead- ing industrial cities of New England and its products are known through- | out the worid” he sald. “Those of you who are engaged in the manu- facturing industry and seek markets in the west and south are beginning to realize that you have no monep- oly on your markets.

The courage of the old time pony express rider didn't begin to compare with the nerve, judgment and determination shown by the air mail pilots. The speaker devoted some time to telling of antiquated planes, with no parachutes, no flares, inadequate 'tlanding fields, the pilots’ lives de- | pending entirely on the perfect op- eration of imperfect motors.

They had to go from place to place on foot.” | Here the governor traced the devel- opment of transportation from the early days of civilization to the pres- ent. He ridiculed mildly the fa- millar criticism against aviation by stating that when the first raiiroad train went 15 miles an hour, early settlers sald it looked like “flying in the face of providence.” Costs Human Tdves “Development of any form of transportation goes through all this period and takes its toll of human The railroad and the automo- Lile did the same thing.
