ANNUAL REPORT SHOWS GROWTH OF U.S. AVIATION Safety in Flying Increases Correspondingly, Summary Reveals By William (’. Chance, UP Aviation Editor Washington, Nov. 22.—(U.R) — A vivid description of.the growth ot American commercial aviation -t-n the past year and a resultant increase In safety was contained tonight in the annual report of Assistant Commerce Secretary for Aeronautics Clarence M. Young. Scheduled air transport (Operators flew 25,141,499 miles in 1929, the report disclosed. They carried 173,405 passengers. 1,866,879 pounds of express and 7,772,104 pounds of mail. For carrying the mail alone, they received 117,042,520,71. There was only one fatal accident on scheduled air transport systems in 1929 to every 2,085,048 miles flown. The record for all services was one fatal accident to every 873,897 miles. These figures compared with 1.791,042 miles flown by scheduled operators per fatal accident and 586.781 miles for all services in 1928. Increased Safety Figures recently released for the first six months of 1930 showed an amazing increase in safety of scheduled airline planes, only one fatal crash occurring for nearly 3.000,000 miles flown. Total miles flown last year, including both scheduled and private operations of aircraft, was 135.141,499, more than twice that in the preceding year—60,673,440. Although progress in the manufacture and sale of aircraft for miscellanecus use failed to continue so rapidly in the last six or eight months of the fiscal yeai elided June 30, 1930, as during the fore part of the year, the report did not regard this as being necessarily discouraging. Unofficially the economic depression lias been blamed for the smaller airplane sales. The airways development program of the Commerce Departments Aeronautics Branch made great strides In the past fiscal year. More than 3,000 miles of airways were lighted; 56 intermediate landing fields establish'd and lighted and 218 revolving beacons installed.

Weather Information Automatic tele-type circuits were installed on 5,650 miles of airways for weather informaticn, while 13 radio broadcasting stations were set. up to broadcast weather conlitions to fliers at regular intervals, night and day. On June 30, 1930, 15.000 miles of lighted airways were in operation, with 319 intermediate fields, 1,477 airway beacons, 303 airway weath-r-rep< rting stations, 35 radio stations, and nine radio range beacons in service. Upon the completion of its teletype and radio installation program, the aeronautics branch will have covered virtually every squate mile in th United States where lying is a regular activity with a veather reporting service. During the year 612 violations of the air commerce regulations were investigated resulting in 183 assessm uts of civil penalties, 161 tuspensions, 22 revocations of licenses, 7 denials of licenses, 148 reprimands. $3,675 collected in tines, 10 public hearings and 13 ccas s referred to the Justice Department. 600 Working Pilots Thirteen thousand pilots held licenses at the close of the fiscal year, of which 600 were employed on scheduled airmail and passenger lines. While the number of licensed pilots not employed on regular air lines was nearly 100 per cent more than the number of licensed airplanes on recon! at the close of the fiscal year, this was not regarded by Young as an undesirable situation. Concerning the future of air transportation, Young asserted that "when the provisions of the Watres Air Mall Act are given full fi.rce this legislation will have outstanding stimulating features on the industry and also will be beneficial to the public." o Picks His Own Pen Albany, N. Y.—“U.R>—When Wil. Ham Moore was sentenced by Police Court Justice Rogan to six months in county jail cli his plea of guilty to passing two worthless checks, he slated he would rather puss his life in Clinton prison. Dannemora. "If I go to (hat jail, judge, 1 will take my own life," he said.
