BUSINESS MEN TURN TU AIR TO BOOSTPROFITS Using Plane Mail, Express Services Because It Pays, They Say. BY HERBERT LITTLE United Press Stall Correspondent WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. —Business, big and little, is turning to aviation transportation more and more, and increasing demands for air mail and express service are being made from all over th* United States. The recent reduction of tne airmail rate has resulted in daily demands from business men in many smaller cities for extension of this service. Maj. Clarence Young, head of the aviation branch of the commerce department said today. His branch is spending $4,250,000 this year improving airways in all parts of the Nation. Promote Flying Fields Business men in general, outside of the aviation industry, have devoted themselves to promoting airports and aviation services, in order to make the newer and faster transportation available to them. A. B. Barber, head of the United States Chamber of Commerce Transportation and Communication Department, said. “Business men are committing themselves to pay millions in taxes, through bond issues and other means of raising money to pay for municipal airports over the country,” Barber said. Barber pointed to a recent survey of business use of air mail and express by banks, insurance companies and other concerns, which showed that 40 per cent used it extensively and 41 per cent occasionally. Business by Air Banks are sending checks, drafts, securities, shippng documents, and other important rush messages. Insurance companies send letters, applications, daily reports, polices, bonds and mortgages, and business houses send contracts, advertising copy and proofs, urgently needed repairs, newspictures and many other articles. Barber said the chambers of commerce were spending millions ol dollars in promoting aviation facilties, making surveys of airports, selling the air mail and express to their members, and help to obtain air mail and air-way services for their communities. / Find Service Profitable Many committees on aviation have been formed over the country, and the national chamber has organized an aeronautics committee of business and aviation leaden, to which Charles Lindbergh is a special adviser. The business men who use the airplane services do so because it is profitable, Barber saia.

OFFERS NEW THEORY FOR FARM RELIEF Chemist Says Wives Should Be More Critical of Produce. Bu United Press WEST BADEN, Ind., Sept. 7. Anew theory of farm relief was offered at the second national fertilizer conference in session here, by Dr. O. S. Fraps, State chemist of Texas. “If American wives were more critical of interior quality, farmers and venders would supply better produce,” Dr. Fraps said. “This eventually would aid he farmers, because thousands of v tons of inferior produce now leave the farms for the market, where it is lagely unsalable. This gluts the markets and depresses the prices of both good and bad produce.” ir. Tait Butler, Memphis, editor of the Progressive Farmer, was reelected chairman of the conference, and Harry C. Butcher, Washington managing editor of the Fertilizer Review, was re-elected secretary.

with the dignity of an officer and a gentleman. Loyal to the trust imposed in him, Jackson has mournfully followed to the grave every humble enlisted man as well as every officer who died at West Point or has been interred in the military cemetery here since 1920. In Many Funerals A few weeks ago, Jackson journeyed down to New York City with other West Pointers who marched with the casket of Captain Emilio Carranza, the Mexican aviator who was killed on his return trip home from a "good will flight” to the United States. Jackson was right behind the funeral caisson which bore the body of the Mexican airman to the railroad station. He has participated in the last rites for numerous other distinguished military men whose names are well-known to the general public. Prior to the death of Captain Carranza, Jackson marched behind the funeral caisson of Major General George W. Goethals, builder of the Panama Canal, who was buried at West Point. But the funeral which doubtless affected Jackson most were those of Major General Robert L. Howze, former commandant of cadets at West Point, and Colonel Francis C. Marshall, commanding officer of the Cavalry Detachment to which Jackson is assigned. Dressed for Rites Jackson was purchased by the Government at Culpepper, Va., in 1916 for $l5O. Arrived now at the mature age—for a horse —of 16 years, he retains his dignity of dis-

It covers his body and has a masklike covering for his face. He is never startled by the firing of a volley over a grave.
