In the etimulus affect- ed lately to such frontier activity, par- ticularly mining, commercial aviationiation have ave a new and rent has comp greater e a importance, There is every indica- in future 'the airplane tion that sire rp steadily will become a Lacttor of in- creasing importance in furthering the eaouomicdevelopment of these out-of- the-way ut• f-the-vaY places "The remarkable increase in flying of this nature, particularly in the lastt Y isbrieflysummed up in the fact ear, 1 that while such services accounted for 4,091 hours flying in 1925 and 5,860 hours ze in 1926,thisincreased to 12,070 hours ia 1927. In the two-year period the number of passengers carried by these services increased from 4,987 to 16,677. thte increase in the past year alone being actual to more than 162 per cent. Freight carried almost doubled in the two years, rising from 592,220 pounds to 1,098,346. pounds, while the increase in mail transporta- tion was even greater, from 1,080 pounds to 14,680 pounds. "The, work carried out by these ser- vices, unoetentatiouely, largely un- known, is to many ways remarkable and constitutes a unlgtie and outstared. lug phase of aviation. • Long, arduous tripe Onto "the wilderness, requiring days of difficult and hazardous travel, have been reduced tot an hour or two or comfortable transport. Mining -pro- perties have been effipeditiously sup- plied with urgently required equip- ment, the ship of the air carving as- tonishing loads at times. Remote. camps have been furnished with ,such hitherto unknown luxuries as regular fresh food and daily mail. "There is every indication that in the present year developments of this nature will be even greater in a con- sideration of the widespread acttivlty with which the airplane as a develop- ing factor has come to be regarded. One company alone, which pioneered a flyingservice into the Manitoba mining •fields and started with one plane in December, 1928, has fifteen planes in operation with the opening of spring. With an average of three aircraft in 1927, this company carried 1,200 paying passengers and 300,000 pounds of freight, and in the last three Wintetr months transported 600 passengers, 30 tons of freight and 8,000 pounds of mail. "So great and recognized has been the value of the assistance of the air- plane in furthering preliminary min- ing development in the fields of Que- bec, Ontario, Manitoba that a Com- pany was recently organized at Toron- to to give a general servfce ` to the mining industry instead of operating regular services into definite fields. The proposed operating plan of the Northern Aerial Mineral Expioratiton, Ltd., whose object -is to stimulate min- eral development in the Dominion, in- cludes the establishment of headquar- ters posts and bases at stratetgic volute as jumping off places. Fuel, oil and spare parts will be kept at these bases, and by the use of radio in conjunction with airplanes it will be possible to maintain daily touch with developing properties In the re- motest sections. "As to the matter of the cost of the maintenance' of such services, only meagre information is procurable. Discussing the queatlon recently, J. A. Wilson, Controller of Civil Aviation, stated that the cost of operating a 200 - horsepower commercial machine for six days a week over an 800 -mile route in both direetitons, and through easy country, such as the Western Prae v irl a worked out at 66 cents a , mile or $1.30 per ton mile. At 800 ton miles per day for 300 days this g1vo0 0n amutal oporating Ghargo of about $3Q0,000, The status of eommerclad aviation in Canada,. with snort than a dozen companies operating, is encouraging in the view that its era le just opening up and that these -enterprising Pion- eers, went ahead unaided, without sub- sidy of any sort, in the face of condi- tione mare difficult them those en- countered in meet phages of the opera- tion of aircraft. Indications are that the y ' are about to come into m .heir own t t wi hcommercial aviation regarded with steadily increasing favor and its ephere of activity growing n6 every Y month. "Considering this in connection with civil government aviation, in the lase than ten years since' its inauguration, an astonishing value has been re- ceived o ,d Cor the money expended. Total expenditure on civil aviation on and civil government aviation has bean approximatetiy $8,000,000, an average of $900,000 per annum, and in the opinion of authorities no country in the world has received greater value for money expended or such value received the State in return. i o by ¢ Effort has p centred upon he conserva- tion and development ofunatural ra l re- sourceshere it was fond site work w u such could he accomplished more efficiently by air,. "A quarter of a `billion acres of for- est onest land have been given efficient lire' protection for thefirAt time. Inven- tories nve -torics have been prepared of 50,000 square miles of forest lands by type mapping from the air. A quarter of a mil t' lion miles of Canadian territory has been photographed ani mAPPed from the air. Fishery protection has been the Pacigreatly Increased on greatly e $G Coast. Ice conditions In the Hudson Strait have been under observation for the first time through the 048 of aircraft, and the transportation of thousands of pounds of material and hundreds of Men has been furnished to all remote parts of Canada. Berlin Hears Fliers Will Return By Ship Kuehl and von Huenefeld Are Expected to Sail May 12, Abandoning Air Voyage Berlin -Reports here are that Cap- tain I£iehl and Baron von Huenefeld have given up the project of returning to Germany by another transocean flight and that they -will sail instead on the Columbus, leaving New York May 12 and arriving at Bremen May 21. Whether they will bring the mono- plane Bremen with them or leave it to an American nntseutn has not been determined. No reason is advanced why the -two fliers have decided to re- turn by ship rather than by air. The first organization in Germany' to honor the German and Irish heroes is' the American Club of Berlin, which is giving a dinner in honor of the three men and Germany's aerial de- velolrment on Tuesday evening. Am- bassador Schulman and representa- tives of the German Government and aviation world will pay tribute to the heroic deeds of the fliers in after-din- ner speeches. The Fatherland does not want to se foreign countries outdo it • in re- ceiving its sons, and a series of recep- tions and anquets' are planned from the time the Columbus arrives: The Aero Club of Germany is giving a din- ner to which Major Fitzmaurice is in- vited. Official receptions by' the cities' and the Government also are planned, Pilots of the School Staaken flew ten planes in formation over Berlin for more than an hour, recently in honor of the achievement In crossing the ocean East to West. The City of .Bremen has finally wir- ed congratulations to the fliers, this act having been delayed by the radi- cal elements, German is gradually warming up and it is believed by the time the air- men arrive the population will, have been worked up to the highest pitch and will show the enthusiasm which' seemingly has been lacking or least not expressed at first. Time largest prone operated by the Lufthansa lines now is called "Kuehl," and this huge machine lead the formation of the Staaken student pilotsin their demon- stration. • Forest Industries Pay -roll Thesalaries sa cs and Wages in Canada's forest industry total annually about $10'0,0,00,000.

The general belief is that Lon- don's pool 00 the year's greatest horse race will surpass in sise the Calcutta sweep, hitherto the Em- pire's largest and most famous. A quarter of a :million persons are said to have subscribed and one of them will win the first prize of more than £100,000. When the Stock Exchange sweep started in 1920 the total was' only £100. Olympians Will Use Holland's New Air Lines Central Position of Dutch Air- drome Will Help Visitors to Coming Gaines The Hague -Visitors to the Amster- dam 1928 Olympic Games will find Holland one of the centers. of the ever- expanding European air transport system. The K. L. 3d., Royal Dutch Air Services, will offer better aircraft and increased accommodation on a greater number of lines than ever be- fore. The summer service will be maintained by 'six new big Kokker F. VIII machines with two motors and eight of. the F. VIIs one -motor planes. In the summer there will be four daily connections each way with Lon- don, two with Paris, three with Ham- burg, two with Brussels, two with Copenhagen -Malmo,' two with south Germany and the Ruhr, one with Prague -Vienna, one with Bale -Zurich, one with Berlin, one with Lyons- 14lareeillea.. The part of the K. L. M. in these services is preponderant. A new connection through Europe will 'be Amsterdam -Madrid. Starting. at 9 am. from Schiphol -Amsterdam, one arrives at 4 p.m. at Geneva. Next morning one snakes the trip Geneva - Marseilles, then by hydroplane to Barcelona, and the last stage o1 the trip again by airplane, arriving at 8 pm. on the second day, 1n the ,capital of Spain, Ratterdam-Constantinople, another transacontinental journey, will only take 50 hours. The Czecho- slovak " Air Service opens a line prague-Marienbad•Cassel-Rotterdam in May. The192 winter 7 -192 8 w nter service of the Ii.L,M, has beenv s' cry successful. Its regularity has been maintained as high as 85 per cent., compared, with about 70 per cent, in former years. The transport of passengers and goods has been most satisfactory While. last summer 22,000 pounds of straw- berries were transported by the K.L.M. there are contracts kir 50,000 pounds the coating season. The weight of out flowers transported by air will far exceed 200,000 pounds, this being the 192,7 figure.

London -Winston Churchill, intro- ducing his new budget in the House of Commons, showed what he alluded to as "a modest, 'but not unwelcome surpiue," of £4,500,000 for the year ,just ended. This was due largely to an intensive economy campaign which had been waged in all departments:. He predicted a surplus of £6,302,000 for the next year, wills an estimated decrease in expenditure of roughly £ 2,600,000. The estimated revenue for the com- ing year was' fixed 01 £812,407,000, and the expenditures at £806.195,000. It is estimated that the new impost will yield £14,000,000 in 192S and £17;000,000 in 1929. The, prgductiou of Scottish shale oil and other British bits, it is expected, will be stimulated ,by the new taxation plan. Archoeologist Discovers Vil-1 ' lage Where Portuguese Na- tives Still Cut Quartz Im-I plements With Clumsy Tools Lisbon. -The case of the alleged mystiflcations of Glozel leads .a daily newspaper here to recall a prehistoric. industry that exists in the district of Leiria, in the Portuguese province of Estremadura. In a remote hamlet, situated far I from towns and peopled .centimes, most, of the nien follow the occupation of flint cutters, the remote origin of this profession, which has been handde on from generation to generation, being. untraceable.. There are some very old, inhabitants of the district who remem- ber hearing that by royal decree the l inhabitants of this hamlet enjoyed the privilege of being exempt from obli-i gatory military service, in virtue of their remarkable aptitude in cutting flints (silex) and preparing it for the' old-fashioned guns or muskets at that time used in the army. In return for this exemption each youth of the ham- let had to present to the authorities at Leiria 1,000 flints duly eut and chiseled for placing in the guns. Each youth received for his lot of flints the sum of 1,200 reis (about 5 shillings.)., This industry was "rediscovered" 36. years ago by a Portuguese archasolo-I gist and writer named Vieria Nativi- dade, author of a work published' int French on the art of tint -tatting int the nineteenth century. This man af' natural science had carefully arrang-I ed in glass cupboards a collection of lances, arrows and many other flint) articles of the Stone Aga which he had found during the many excava- tions that were one of the interests of his life• One day, as he was examin- ing some pieces of sliex for some flint and steel lighters that were much used by smokers in the provinces at that time, he noted with surprise the slm- ilarity of the stones to those of his neolithic collection, and inquired Where they„came from. It was thus he discovered the an- cient industry in the remote hamlet, where he went himself, and came upon a truly neolithic scene, as far as work- ing methods go. Inside huts, seated on the ground, men worked in silence cutting and chiseling, the quartz with primitive itive tools. As ho watched them r 1 1st formed aplan. A few a chino og fo days later he returned there And told the men he wanted them to make some stone articles for him. He showed the h artists his prehistoric models modern s p r and the stonecutters reproduced them with such exactitude that no one could possibly distinguish the false from the real flints. 5aII loose Wifie-"Yea, my dear, every time he gets anything wrong with his stom- ach ho 'wants to fight," Friend -"Makes him bellicose, I sup• pose." Paradoxically, it takes a man who 1s a sticker to .make a good run in a. political contest!.
