AVIATION PARLEY
RESUME IS
AT L
Value to Medford Stressed
by A. H. Banwell, General
Chairman of Boise Meet
Army Needs Reviewed
A resume of the Northwest Avia
tion Planning Council sessions in
BoIm, Idaho, last week was given at
1De weekly luncheon-meeting of the
Ltons club In Valentine's cafe Wed
nesday afternoon by A. H. Banwell,
the council s general chairman. Mr.
Banwell'a tal follows:
" While the meet'. ng was devoted
primarily to aviation planning for
the Pacific northwest, nevertheless
there were many things brought out
at the conference which are of vital
and specific Interest to Medford. In
the first place. Gen. Oscar Westover,
chief of the United States army air
corps, opened the conference with a
splendid address on national defense.
He stated that the most pressing
problem now before the service was
the question of army airbases. He
expfcfnt& hat an alrbase Is not a
single field' a unified, coordin
ated group of fields, supplied with
shops, depots, ground personnel and
fighting strength. This is not a thing
which a single community can
achieve. It la a matter for unified
planning on the part of the geo
graphical region involved.
"The general stated that bases may
be established in private and com
mercial fields. This statement should
give us In Medford some encourage
ment, as from the general's remark
It would seem that there would be a
poslblllty of our present field being
used as a secondary base if the army
established one In this district.
Airport Size Puzzles.
"The question of how large an air
port should be was one that all the
experts attending the meeting could
not answer. The size of an airport
depends on many things. Where It
la located, for Instance, and then
again no one knows what the next
ten years will develop In the field of
aviation, O. N. Montelth, vice-president
of the Boeing Aircraft company,
stated It was Impossible to predict
what would happen In the next ten
years and the only Idea one could
have on this Is to look back and see
what has happened In the past ten
years and then visualize the possi
bilities of the future.
"It Is predicted that regular ser
vice will be Inaugurated In the near
future across the Atlantic between
New York and London. The Clipper
ships are already spanning the Pa
cific and It was further predicted that
within a few years regular aervlce
will be Inaugurated over the north
pole. Planes are now being built on
the Pacific coast with elevators and
spiral stair-cases, in connection with
airports and future developments one
thing was emphasized In which all
the experts agreed and that Is that
runways should be paved.
"One of tha most colorful speakers
em the program was Commander C. E.
Rosendahl, America's No. 1 'llghter-than-alr
man.' Commander Rosen
dahl's talk drew the largest audience
of the conference. He Is still a be
liever In the possibility of using
Ughter-than-atr craft for commercial
operations and his splendid technical
address proved his point. Ho dealt
at considerable length with the wreck
of the Hindenburg, which he saw, and
It was his opinion, although the
board of Inquiry has not yet estab
lished the reason of the wreck, that
It was due to fire as a result of the
use of hydrogen instead of helium.
"The question of airmail service

was also thoroughly discussed and
Instructive talks were given by Fred
D. Fagg, director of the bureau uf
air commerce, and Col. W. Sumpter
Smith, principal aeronautics engineer
for WPA. It Is Impossible to enu
merate everything that was learned
In a short talk, but within a few
days we shall receive a set of the
resolutions passed at the conference
which will gtve a clear conception
of the vast number of aviation prob
lems which were thoroughly dU
cussed. "Anthony J. diamond, delegate to
congress from Alaska, gave a clear
picture of the Alaska problem which
Is one of vital Interest to every Pa
cific northwest community. The con
ference brought together the great
est authorities of aviation In the
United States and It Is doubtful If
another meeting has ever been held
where so many army, navy, federal
government, commercial operators and
manufacturers were present. Med
ford made one or two contacts with
some of these groups which should
eventually react to our favor.
"The next meeting will be held In
Vancouver, B. C, In either March or
April and It is highly desirable thit
we have a large delegation attend at
that time."

Call back
TO CHECK UP
Vacation should be carefree. A telephone call "checks
you in" at the place you want to stay and at the price
you want to pay. A call ahead checks you in with those
friends you look forward to seeing.
A call homeward now and then adds likewise to that
carefree feeling. It gives you the latest possible check-up
with those you left behind. Telephoning relieves anxiety !
