Through Urn d'-vclopinent -of

.Spanish mercantile power, which
rcnturlcft ago inanifeHiod itHelf in
hep great eolonlal eiuplv1, which
has uineo dwindled to a few small
. holdings in Afrlea and In the Can
ary and Hulearie. islands. ?'
Perhaps the. moHt fitrilting as
pect of the movement Is the zest
wlih which efforts are helnff made
to establish u regular commercial
dirigible service between Spain
and Argentinu. This project,
which has lung been under con
sideration and which has received
in Function of Spanish and Ar
gentine governments,' Ik being hunl
ened into , reality the while Us
sponsors accliilm the recent round-the-world
flight of the Graf Zep
pelin as proof of its practicabil
ity. :' - '.
Spain Is honey-combed with ulr
fields., Itccently an important
airway was established from Bar
celona -via Madrid and Hlarrif. to
J'urls allowing an outlet to thur
continents! lines. . .i
While Kpiiln's sea progress has
recently shown some minor activi-'
ly, -aviation 'has hounded forward
under the leadcrshly of military
authorities. The army has bc:-n
instrumental in establishment of
aviation schools, plants to nianu
facturo standard planes and parts
at uniform prices and general lui-'
provpin'ent In lunding facilities.
The Spanish government is now
making nri effort to form a union
of leading foreign firms with Span
ish companies and to effect estab
lishment of branch factories in the
country.
Hgurcs released by the govern
ment show that $3.8!M,U(ju huve
been spent by the army in 1129 In
acquiring tlv apparatus, and of
this amount nine-tent ha was ex
pended in Spain. Recently the
council of ministers decided to. nc
Hiilio 160 moro machines of Kronen
design hut innntifuctured hern.
I1' tights by Spanish aviators also
have added impetus to the devel
opment. Tho exploits of Cup t'ul us
Jimenez and Iglestas in their trip
from Spain to Brazil and the ad
vontures of Major Itamon Kraip-o
and his companions, who were,
rencued from their plane near the
Azores, have Horved to firo the in
terest of the public in ueronnuUes.
Aviation first commenced to
flourish In'l!i2n, following disas
trous defeats of the Spanish-army
in Morocco. There Jus been a
steady upward trend of develop
ment. It is estimated that lu J 023
the government purchased SO mo
tors and 40 bodies. against 2K0 and
450 respectively from foreien com
panies. In J'.i2i Spanish factories
Jiavo turned oyer to the govern
ment 113 motors and IBS bodies
compared with only two bodies
and It) motors bought from other
countries. ..
