AVIATION RATED AS U. S. KEY TO SOUTHAMERICA Vast Business Fields, Ripe for Enterprise, Unfold Before Airman. BY DAN WILLIAMS Scrlpps-Howard Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Nov. 4.—American travelers used to dread the twoweek boat trip from the seaport of Barranquilla to Bogota, capital of Colombia. They dreaded not alone its long delay, its hardships and idleness. Often they fell ill on that tortuous, creeping voyage up the Magdalena River, with mosquitos swarming the steaner each night. Now the Scatta Company, a German enterprise, has wiped out that dread. Mosquitos cannot fly as fast as the wings of the new Icarus. The nedless Magdalena, with its threat of disease and discomfort, meanders below the Junker airplanes, wild, beautiful, fascinating. And the traveler, off from Barranquilla in • the morning, dines at Bogota that night. Chance for U. S. “This,” said Joshua B. Powers, American representative of several iarge South American newspapers, “illustrates the opportunity awaiting aviation in the vast, unsettled regions of Latin America.” “American business, in its own interest,” said Powers, “should take the lead in establishing these services, because the operation of commercial airplane lines not only would open the way to the sale of American airplanes, but help to hold and expand American commerce generally.” Argentina is the best suited of all Latin America for the reception of aviation, in Powers' opinion. “The inhabited part, which also is the richest,” he said, “really is one great flying field, 500 miles wide and 1,000 miles long. “Most of the agricultural machinery in Argentina,” continued Powers, “is American. When a great threshing machine breaks a small part it has to stand idle for days. American business concerns might well use the airplane in such cases to send repair parts. Good Field in Brazil “Brazil needs aviation. It is larger than the United States and with few and poor railroads must depend on slow river boats for interminable journeys. “Then there is Chile, 800 miles long. Though you almost can see across it, travel to part of it is terrible. Airplanes would be useful to company managers in traveling from office to office in the Chilean nitrate fields. Perhaps the worst travel conditions are over the Andes in Peru. Iquitos, center of a rich region, is 800 miles from Lima. It takes three weeks to get there by horseback. “You could arrive sooner if you came to New York through the Canal, sailed again and finished your journey by steamer up the Amazon. But an airplane could fly from Lima to Iquitos in a day. “The airplane some day greatly will shorten the distance to these back regions from the South American cities and from New York. It will develop South America and speed up commerce with this country.” I. 0. 0. F. TO INITIATE Lodge No. 807 Starts Work on Program for Winter.

Dublin, statistician for the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, told the United Press today. “The amount below average weight,” Dr. Dublin said, “should increase as people grow older. An excess of ten pounds, for example, is associated with the most favorable conditions among people between the ages of 20 and 25.” At the age of 30 a level is said to be reached, after which underweight is more to be desired than overweight.. ■. , E, Washington Stroet "Tho Bargain Cornp,? of IndlnnapolU* 1 Corner Washington acil Delaware Sta

CONGRESS WILL FIGHT PLAN TO NAMEAIR CZAR Oppose ‘Coronation’ of New, Giving Him Power to Set Mail Prices. Bu United Press WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.—Efforts of private air mail contractors to set up Postmaster General Harry S. New as a “czar” to regulate prices on air shipments of parcel post will be opposed vigorously by Congress. “There are too man ‘czars’ in our government now and I certainly v/ill oppose any effort to allow any one man to say what charges should be fixed for parcel pest shipments,” said Rep. Clyde Kelly, of Pennsylvania, whose activities in aviation legislation have gained for him

the title of "father of commercial air mail.” “Congre.ss fixed the maximum rate which contractors can receive for carrying first-class mail by airplane, and it certainly should have sole authority to fix rates on pared post when commercial companies enter this field of mail carrying.” The proposal to make the Postmaster General sole controller of parcel post shipments was offered at Chicago last week, when representatives of commercial air mail companies discussed legislative proposals to be submitted to Congress next month. The airmen differ on ihe form the proposal should take, one group favoring the quotation of a maximum rate for parcels and another faction thinking the determination of rates should be left to the Portmaster General and ihe contractors. “I favor a czar of commercial aviation and. I think the Postmaster General should be that czar,” said Colonel Paul Henderson, director of the National Air Transport Company, now operating the New York to Chicago and the Chicago to Fort Worth air mail routes. Rates for carrying first-class air mail are controlled by Congress through the Kelly bill, fixing a pound as the maximum which any private contractor can receive.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

ANCIENT SKULL IS RARE RELIC First Man May Have Lived in Africa, Belief. Bu NEA Service BELOIT, Wis., Nov. 4.—The skull of a man who lived 20,000 years ago is in the possession of Dr. George L. Collie, professor of anthropology at Beloit College here. Experts of the French Achaeological Society who examined the treasure believe it to be at least that old. Should further study verify this finding, it will indicate, Dr. Collie says, that the cradle of man was In Africa and not in Asia, as has been generally believed. The skull was found in Algeria by M. A. Debruge, a French scientist. Before he would surrender it to Dr. Collie, he demand that it be insured for SIO,OOO. When they found that dead men weren’t being insured in Africa, the Frenchman made the American

promise to carry it attached to his person all during the trip back to America. PERSHING WILL SPEAK TO NATION’S FARMERS General Accepts Federation Bid; Meets In December.
