Aviation U. S. LAGS IN : WAR AVIATION, SAYS DOOLITTLE Military Air Forces Are Excelled in Europe, Asserts Aviator. tv United prfi ST LOUIS. Aug 15 —The military air forces of the United States is excelled by those of European countries, James H. Doolittle, formerly a lieutenant in the United States air corps, said here after returning from a survey of Europe. "Although we are considerably behind in military flying, our commercial aviation is on a par with that of the Europeans," Doolittle said. , Doolittle, after a three months’ aviation survey of Europe, blames our loss of military supremacy to abandonment of air racing. "The army stopped building racing planes in 1925 and since then we have not added a mile to the speed of our pursuit ships. Surpassed by Europe “The fastest planes we have today are the old ones which were constructed in 1925. But, the Italians and other countries have continued air racing activities and the lesson they learned has enabled them to surpass us," he said. "Some of the European fighting planes can outfly the best we've got by ninety miles an hour.” "In commercial flying there is not a great deal of difference between here and abroad. "Speed of our lines perhaps gives tis the inside track, however," Doolittle said. "They are never in a hurry over there The planes stop more frequently and allofcr the passengers more time before resuming the flight than we do. Night flying with passengers has not been attempted." he said. Visited 21 Countries Starting at Athens, Greece, Doolittle and his party flew over nearly 8,000 miles of airways and visited twenty-one countries. The survey was sponsored by the Curtiss interests in an effort to develop European markets for American manufactured planes. Since leaving the United States air forces. Doolittle has been connected with the aviation department of a large oil company.

‘SUBZERO ICE' FROM TROPICS IS NEW TRADE Mexican Wells’ Yield of Carbon Dioxide Gas Form Product. E.u Times Special NEW YORK, Aug. 15.—The first shipment of condensed cold from the tropics to New York arrived here Thursday on the steamer Panuco. In a section of her hold specially insulated with a solid foot of corkboa*d the vessel carried 400,000 pounds of ‘‘subzero ice," or solid carbon dioxide, which has a latent temperature of 140 degrees (Fahrenheit) below zero. The shipment is a product of wells eighteen miles inland from Tampico in the Mexican oil fieids. While the paradox of bringing "ice” from the tropics to the north is without precedent, it is believed to mark the beginning of anew trade. Drilling oil, carbon dioxide gas supply, win ushes to the surface at a pressure oi 1,000 pounds to the square incr. was struck.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

1.600 tons of solid cat bon dioxide, cr which there recently has been .’rested a rapidly growing demand on the part of quick frozen food companies, ice cream makers, dealers in dairy products and fruit and vegetable growers. An initial plant of 40,000 pounds daily capacity now has been erected it the wells. The gas supply is adequate to make four million pounds a day. Nature has provided the pressure needed to compress the gas into pure liquid, from which It then is expanded into "snow" and blocked into cubes for shipment. Three ships have been equipped with special chambers to hold 200 tons each. Floors, ceilings and walls of these compartments are insulated against heat by twelve inches of corkboard, which it is believed will practically eliminate loss by evaporation during the mne-day voyage even in midsummer.

in New York City appeared today as the aftermath of a county grand jury's dismissal of the Ewald case. There was little satisfaction in the press over the jury's action in clearing George F. Ewald. former magistrate, of charges that he paid $12,000 for his place on the bench. Democratic and Republican newspapers alike professed to see restraint in the way Thomas C. T. Crain, district attorney, handled the investigation. Nor did Charles H. Tuttle. United States attorney, who originally unearthed the charge against Ewald, consider the case closed. He said he would continue his effort—but before a federal grand jury—to show that Ewald paid Martin J. Healy, Tammany leader for his job.
