He is a son of the late Mr. and 14xs. Richard W. Ryan, of Nile, his father having died about 20 years ago and his mother, about 13 years ago. The old Ryan farm home- stead 'is now owned by George C. Feagan. He has one brother, George Ryan, of Goderich, and one sister, Mrs. L. G. (Marion) Rikard, of Pasadena, California. After attending school at Nile and Goderich Collegiate, Richard Ryah answered the call to duty during 'World War I and went to England where he joined the old Royal Flying Corps. The Financial Post ,carrys the following story: Following war service as a fight- er pilot, Ryan returned to the University of Toronto. His ambi- tion lay in the law.

Gasoline costs more. too. But government figures show that since 1939 the cost of living has gone up more than 120 percent while wholesale gasoline prices have risen about 40 percent—less than a third as much. And what's more—today's regular ga.olines are far superior to the premium*grades sold only ten years ago. !WIPE ARAL OIL LIMITED, AT AIR-CONDITIONED THE PARK GODERICH PHONE 1150 >aa+v PIayln9—"THREE VIOLENT PEOPLE" In Color with Craton Heston.

Enthusiastically he took it and travelled to his first pest in Winnipeg. Within three r onths he applied for discharge. "It was very disappointing," he recalls. "In no way like the war time atmos- phere. Nothing Inas happening, nothing..getting done." It was after a further period of study in which a master of arts degree was won at the University of Alberta that Ryan began teach- ing. He was also manager of the Moose Jaw Flying Club at the sante time. It was during the period of dual career that Ryan met and married Marjorie Brittain. Today they have one married daughter living in Seattle. From the' flying club stemmed a small two plane airline called Prairie Air Services. It flew a feeder service around Saskatch- ewan connecting with TOA's new trans continental flights. World War 73 brought a,.surge of activity with the airfield and club forming the nucleus of No. 3 Air Observ- ation School of the Commonwealth Air Training Plan. Ryan was kept so busy making sure the school kept up the flow of young navigators—and the war- time business of running an airline was so complex—he was more than delighted when Canadian Pacific offered to take it over as part of the newly formed Canadian Pacific Airline. Since then Ryan has risen stead- ily in CPA's management living in Edmonton, Winnipeg, Montreal and now' Vancouver. He takes over as AITA head at a crucial time with defense spending cuts causing some uncomfortable mutterings in the industry. The new, chief spokesman for Canada's flyers and plane builders has a mixed background — part pilot, part school teacher. While his heart is still largely in the cockpit, Ryan's quiet spoken man - nee testifies to his years in the schoolroom.

Startling evidence of the role,. liquor plays in traffic accidents is furnished by their records. After 14 years in business they had to pay in losses per vehicle 38% less than the average of 30 other companies. And the num- ber of claims per 100 vehicles was 37% Less. Since by no means all of the policy holders in these other companies were drinking drivers, alcohol hadto play a tremendous role to create the difference be- tween the two groups. How does alcohol do that? 1. It slows dawn reactions. 2. It creates false confidence. 3. It impairs concentration and dulls judgment. '4. It affects vision.
