Th broadcasting was reported to have been nearly perfect by many operators who telephoned in. say ing that they were hearing th music clearly and with no trouble whatsoever. Even misfortune re strained Itself until the programme waa nearly over. In the next to he last number the power went ff suddenly while Mitylene Fraker lites was singing "Love's Old Sweet ong, and the only number which had to be omitted was a solo by Miss Winifred Campbell, soprano, who waa to sing "SmiUn" Through." The long programme, lasting from to 10 o'clock, was arranged by Mitylene Fraker Stltes, contralto nd vocal teacher, who. besides con tributing to the'programme herself with five solos, also lent two of er best pupils. It was Mrs. Stites' alrd radio concert in The Orego- ian tower, and it was also her best Assisted at the piano by Miss Lens Southworth she sang "Vale," "Open Road."

Even before the concert telephone calls began coming in. inquiring when and what Miss Campbell would sing, showing that she is one of the favorites of the radio IjJEW YORK.' President Harding has again given evidence of his be lief in the future of flying. The chief executive expects amazing de velopments In air travel, and de clares that each stage of develop ment demands Improved means of transport; he wants the United States to lead the world In- com mercial aviation. He has expressed these views in a letter to the Aeronautical Chamber of. Commerce of America, the text of which fol lows: "The White House. Washington. Gentlemen: I find pleasure in adding a word expressive of my in terest lo. aerial transport, and in the presentation of the subject which Is being made by the Aeron autical chamber of commerce. The history of civilization is largely the history' of -communication. Each stage of progress seems to demand and develop improved means of transport. The steamship, the rail road and the motor car have been devised and utilized. Now we enter a new phase. It is a real distinc tion to America to be known as the birthplace, of the airplane; it should be our concern that this art shall nqt languish, but that in its prac tical application we shall lead the world. An amazing development wiU take place in the near future in the utilization of the air as a medium of transport and com munication. As a government, we are aiming to provide this art with necessary guarantees of law, and with suoh facilities aa may be. pos sible through the encouragement of airways and terminals. But for air transport quickly to achieve the Im portant place it is destined to oc cupy. It must have public interest and support. I hops your efforts in this behalf may be productive of most gratifying results. Very- truly yours, "WARREN G. HARDING." The .Aeronautical chamber of commerce was organized tnis year to "foster, advance, promulgate and promote aeronautics, and generally to do every act and thing which may. be necessary and proper for the advancement of American avia tion." Starting w.ith Orville Wright and Glenn H. Curtlss. the pioneers. and several other leading aircraft designers and builders, the chamber now has nearly 200 members located in every state in the union. Possibly a score of factories today have their own ; laboratories in which scientists are working with trained personnel making slight al terations in machines or motors, the chamber says in a statement given out in this city. These men are not seekin.g to produce something radi cal, but rather to improve the types which have justified the basic prin ciples on which they were built. Aooroximateiy tuu civilians are taking lessons in flying at civilian aviation fields this summer. The chamber estimates that there are 120-0 civilian owned and operated aircraft in the country today. The average charge per passenger a year and a half ago was 65 cents a mile. Last year It was 55 cents, and it is believed that the average thia year will be about W cents. There has been, slight Increase in terminal facilities so far this year. The administration is encouraging local landing fields and national. airways wherever practical. 1111 DOUBXj aw GREEN TRADING STAMPS Wmmw) f7-uw . -a w w a m .J C! , &ial art ww ij 1 1 limy mm o aim nay August 4 and 5, We Will Give Double Green Trading Stamps mi'i 1 Toilet Soaps E Cuticura .,..3 for 6o Woodbury .. .3 for 57 Resinol .....3 for 60 Packer's Tar3for60 Poslam 3for40 Zemo ....... 3 for 75 Cia-Wood Lemon Cream For sunburn, wind burn, chapped hands and face.
