U.S. EXPERTS TO STUDY AIRWAYS SYSTEM ABROAD American Plane to Be Flown Over Foreign Routes in Inspection Tour By C. O. SMITH rKrom Th Tribune' Wshtnptnn Bureau Copyright by Bouthra Publiihlnu Ltd WASHINGTON, Feb. 2 William F.

Whiting, secretary of commerce, has announced that the director of aeronautics of his department is being eent to Europe, next week to make an official Inspection of European sJr routes. He will fly an American plane over the whole network of European airways, his object being to ohtaln first hand, detailed information on behalf of the American aviation Industry concerning the Important established airways of England, Trance, Italy, Austria and Germany. He will study the manner in wlilch passengers are handled; the provisions made for their comfort both In planes and at landing fields; the air laws between states and nations; routing; qualifications of pilots; construction of airports and other economic factors affecting the progress of aviation. Aviation Expan'on Another United States representative, Major Young, also will confer with the technical staffs of foreign civil aviation departments on the Important subject of mutual vallda tion of ah worthiness, certificate and pilots' licenses. This tour is being undertaken In the belief that passenger transport and mall carrying in the l.nited States will increase enormously within the next few years.

That regular scheduled routes will form a network over the land in the early future is anticipated. Major Young will make his inspection as a pilot, not as a passcn i tier, in order to see the entire system from the viewpoint of the opor utlng personnel. Interest Intense His tourjs additional evidence nt the Intense Interest that la being manifested In this country in every detail of aeronautical development. In the Guggenheim Foundation, the war and nnvy departments, and the departments of commerce and post office, each of which have under secretaries in charge of aviation, this interest Is being constantly promoted. Close co operation is in plav between these aviation departments and the technical advisers of the United States radio commission.

Radio Held Key Dr. 3. H. Delllnger, chief of the radio section of the United States bureau of standards, who also Is an adviser of the radio commission. In a speech before the American Inst! lute of Electrical Engineers, declared that the proper application of radio to aviation provides the key to the future development of commercial air travel.

Radio seems to be the answer to the hazards of weather," he said. There is ground for hope that not only the percentage of accidents and delays, but the whole number will heiome vanlshlngly small when the present possibilities of radio are realized In practice." Today I discussed with the aviation officer of the United States poet office department the methods adonted In this country arouse public Interest In the air mall. Employ Publicity He conceded that In the early stages the public was apathetic. Air routes were established and contracts let. but the.

public did not wend mail by them in any volume. Thereupon the government, in cooperation with the air mail contrao lois, set about "selling" the Idea of air mail to the people, just as any ommerclal concern would strive to sell Its rroduct. They used all con servable forms of publicity. The United States post office de wtment has three traffic manngets at New York. Chicago and San Krancisco.

These. officers are 'barged with the duty of developing Mr mall traffic. They work on the Hues of a divisional reight traffic igent at a railway They have organized nubile, sneak ing campaigns, hnve issued maps, schedules and other information, nnd have prepai'ed vast quantities "i puoacuy material designed to nromote public interest In mailing ietters by the air service If these methods' had not been sppnea ny trie post office department and the air mail contractors, my Informant said, the volume of postal matter carried would undoubtedly have remained small. I describe these activities because similar procesies undoubtedly will have to be adopted to expand the volume of air mall carried in Canada. By employing these means, present air routes In the Dominion can be put in a healthier condition and the establishing of new services rn be encouraged.

SOUTH AFRICAN NATIVES INSIST ON VOTE RIGHTS Trade Union Assails Hertzog For Manifesto Denouncing Franchise Plan London Timet Southam Special Cable Service Copyright JOHANNESBURG.

Feb. 2 A trade union recently formed by South African natives, has written to General Hertzog. the premier, and his colleagues, denouncing their recent manifesto on the rights of natives to the vote, and declaring that If South Africa had a con scientious minister of Justice there would be prosecutions under the Native Administration Act for such direct Incitement to trouble. The native trade union says that South African natives look forward to the day when they will take their rightful share In the election of the government of the country. "When our people understand," the letter continues, "what it means to have the franchise, It is probable that their politics will be proletarian In nature, because the black man Is South Africa's proletariat." The Hertzog manifesto attacked the policy of General Smuts, opposition leader, who wishes to retain the present Cape province franchise for natives, and declared It meant the submerging of South Africa In a Kaffir ocean.

Scenes and uproar have marked debate now proceeding in the House of Assembly at Cape Town, wljere General Smula has introduced a no confidence motion. The former controversy over the South African flag, and the inclusion of the Tnlon Jack in Its, has hern revived In parliament, and bitter charges against the premier and his cabinet. Instituting dishonorable breach of their undertaking to Natal, have marked the debates.

It was their first experience and a ticklish proposition, but now that Its over, they claim they face a harder Job than hurling themselves out of a plane and trusting to a few yards of silk and rope.

Today they have to take a written examination on It. End of Course They are being examined as the conclusion of the three week parachute rigging course conducted by Flight Lieut. Albert Carter. Among other questions they are being asked to write their impressions during the Jump from the plane. "I didn't mind the Jump, but what am I going to write about It?" said Airman Jim Myers.

"We are supposed to tell all about our Jump, giving every phase of it from the time the plane took off with lis till wo landed after the leap. It happened so quick," be said, "and there was really no sensation of falling after I Jumped out of the plane." How They Do It When a man leaps from an aeroplane he drops like a stone, but the fall seems to be at an angle, away from the machine. After falling several feet he clutches the rip cord which Is tucked in the parachute harness on the left side. This re leases the pilot chute, which Is arranged on a spring. The pilot chute catches the wind and rips open the main envelope, checking the descent quickly.

Ordinarily the fall terminates with no appreciable shock to the Jumper. "It Is the same as Jumping from an right foot wall." said Flight Lieut. Carter, who made his 36th parachute Jump Wednesday. "1 have never put so many men to the test In one dav as I did hers yesterday. Kvery one of them did the thing right and it proves what a parachute means as a safety device.

ANGLICAN BISHOP REOPENS PRAYER BOOK DISPUTE Parliament Openly Defied by Dr. Frere in Order to His Clergy fFrom Th Tiibino's London Bureau Cupyrlitlit by Buutlmin Publishing Ud.) LONDON, Feb. 2 The first open defiance of parliament by an Anglican bishop, Doctor Frere, of Truro diocese, has started the Prayer Book controversy afresh In England. Doctor Frere is a picturesque figure In the church, a high Anglican, who Is known as "The Monk Bishop." and belongs to a celibate order called the "Community of the Resurrection." Although parliament twice has rejected the revised edition of tho Prayer Book, be has Just authorized his clergy to use It as an alternative to the official Prayer Book.

Whether the sacrament Is to be reserved or not In accordance with the High Church usage will be a matter, he says, to be considered as rases arise In parishes. Dr. Frere has thus put Into operation the policy denounced by many lenders of the church, who took the view that as parliament had retected the revised book, the bishops were not free to continue their former ritualistic practices, but must suppress them among their clergy. The bishop, however, is careful to explain thnt while the ordering of iniin services cannot, be In strict accordance with the law. whatever ne allows in the way of gh Church practices must be subject to cons.
