HANDICAP TO

Lack of rjersonnel on the ground
and In the air I aviation' greatest
drawback today, W. A. (Scout) Hax
elwood, chief pilot and ground
school instructor for the Eyerly Air
craft corporation, told tne stotary
club Wednesday noon. There are
only 3000 transport pilots today with
an additional zsoo or sow commer
cial pilot whereas this year the pro
duction of new aircraft will be
around 4000 shins.
Peclflo coast air transport unes
are expanding and it will not be
long until Salem Is a regular port
of call." Hazelwood said. "Increasing
the poundage of airmail will do
much towards obtaining direct air
mall service out of Salem." Safety
and stability of modern aircraft was
emphasized by the speaker, who said
underwriters now place the steam
ship, airplane, railroads and busses
In the order of safety in transporta
tion. Recently a pilot flew from Los
Angeles to Portland with only 65
minutes spent at the control, the
remainder of the time wa spent
talking with a passenger in the ca
bin. Hazelwood said he flew between
75,000 and 100.000 mile last year
without a stag la accident, a record
that few motorist of toe came
mileage can equal
"Middle aged men can fly. If they
can drive an automobile, with lets
physical and mental effort," Hazel-
wood said In reply to a question.
"A a rule men around 46 years
have sounder Judgment and are
more careful in the air than the
younger men."
Full production at the Eyerly
Aircraft corporation in the next 80
days wa predicted. The type of
plane to be manufactured fill a gap
in existing type and the experi
mental ship has been highly spoken
of in aviation Journal, Hazelwood
declared, since the dedication ol
the municipal airport August more
than 30 aircraft of various type
have visited the field. Hazelwood
paid a tribute to the engineering
on the new field. He was accom
panied by Lee U. Eyerly, president

AS ROADMASTER
While members of th county
court decline to discuss th matter
and say that no action will be tak
en until after the funeral of w.
Culver, county roadmaster who Just
died after many years or service in
that capacity, it I the general be
lief tn court bouse circles that
Frank O. Johnson, also for num
ber of years deputy county road
master, will be selected as a suc
cessor to Mr. Culver.
For quite a period of his service
as roadmaster Mr. Culver acted
alone in that capacity, but a num
ber of years ago with the big mar
ket road programs under way and
also much more extensive work
done on the county roads ouier
than market roads, an assistant for
Mr, Culver waa provided by the
court and Mr. Johnson baa acted la
that capacity.
It Is generally agreed that hi
service have been of a high-class '
nature and no one Is more familiar
with all of the details of the pres
ent road program and plans which
have been outlined for future ooun
ty road development than he,
While a good share of the mar
ket road program has been com
pleted, there still ts a heavy mile
age to be done under the present
plan of macadamizing all of the
important roads and within fe
years the question win come up of
paving large mileages of tn county
road on which macadam bases are
now being laid or have been laid.
While every town in the county l
now connected witn every oioer
town bv a saved road, this doe not
cover the Important market roads
by long odds.
In addition anotner mauer os
extreme Importance to the county
is the matter of the proposed road
across the mountains, via Detroit.
Mr. Culver has made this trip a num
ber of times and bad all the de
tails of this proposed road at nia
finger ends. Mr. Johnson also ss
familiar with the proposed work
through his association with Mr.
Culver.
While much of the heavy end oi
the work In developing a complete
road system for the county haa
been accomplished, there son a a
very important part of It to be
done, and many years will be re
quired to put it over.
"A simple ease of right of way"
waa the explanation made on the
report of Chester Foreman In ao
ccountlng for an accident with Ken
neth Egan Tuesday evening, w
of the two drivers collided at State
and Commercial streets.
The "Pilgrim Players," who mads)
an appearance here early thl sum
mer, will furnish the entertainment
for th last of the season's union
church services which will be held,
in Wlllson park next Sunday after
noon. "Peter th Rock" I the name
of the biblical play which will be
presented by the company which
consist of two southern California
ministers and their wives.
