KUiikIci, gencm! hiiIch ni:in- tiKnr of the Chevrolet Motor 1:0111- ! pany. The two Industrie will t minor follow parallel lines of tie- ' volnpnient, with etich one aiding the other, 1 the Chevrolet anles lender declared In an interview here today. j "There, will he no more romp'"- 1 tlou between the airplane and tho i automobile than there h between j the newspaper and tho radio." KlInKler stales. "When the radio first began broadeaHlitiK news din- i patches, there wan talk of it sup- . planting I he newnpupei Today I the newspaper prints radio news, j nnd Hie news Items broadens! by J the radio rather whet the appetites ' of newspaper renders. Kiieh one j Nerves the other. j "I hi'lieve the airplane and the; automobile will follow similar lnies of development. 'I belief Hint for every iilr- plan" that hops in tho air at least j two automobiles will bo oh tho I ground. I "The owner of an airplane will i need an automobile to take bilii 1 fin m his home to the airport.

Kvery fllKbt will will into use at least two or three ears. , "There will be no com pet It hm between the airplane nnd the auto mobile been use the airplane eati serve only a restrieted field of transportation. It Is ssenllally a fit plil medium of long distance travel. Jt doeH not havo the flexi bility or tho all-around utility of the automobile. "The motor ear lakes the busi ness man to work In the morninK. It earrleH the professional man. Who has many stops to make, on his route over town. It takes the Wife downtown shopping, the fam ily lo visit frlendH, or on week-end or vuention trips, It does this Without regard to distance or con ditions of the weather. "There Is this further Interest lnff distinction between the air plane and tho. automobile. The ptotor ear In itn evolution was first regarded as a fad and a luxury. It was recognized as an economic liecoHsily only after It had Rained with popularity as an instrument f pleasure. '."The airplane, on the other hand has been an instrument of busi ness from the slate. It Is serving now mainly In aerial photography, ill f transporting mall, mo'hui pic tures and oilier quick freight, and in providing rapid passage between distant points. Its utlllly Is limit ed,1 to this highly restricted field which In no sense encroaches on the uutoiiiobile. "Both the automobile and the airplane are propelled by internal combust Ion enulncs. Hence any new discovery made In one Indus try will he avnllahle for the other. Aircraft motor building now Is largely based on lessons learned In tho development of the automo bile. '"As mass production served automobiles In bringing them lo a basis of low first cost and econo mical transportation, so I believe It will aid the airplane, In a limited measure. In reducing air transput -taliou cost per mile. Itut at the same time groat national super high ways will speed up automobile travel nearer to that now attained by airplanes. Much will he able to Herve belter In Its own field."
