As a matter of fact, we were "shopping with a purpose," for a graceless Nlcarag-unn sailor had reached through our heads away from Panama that one Is well on the way to Callfornlu. Yet the map and the table of distances tell a different story. From New York to the canal direct 13 1980 miles, but from the canal to San Pedro ls 3198 miles, so after watching the lightning and listening to the distant thunder that marked our first tropical storm as the lights of Panama drew dimmer and then disappeared, we made plans for another two weeks at sea, and then sought surcease as torrents of rain fell, and we knew the wet season had arrived.

A battle, fought in mid air to the tune of whirling propellers, is being waged as a half dozen air transport liners vie for supremacy. Almost overnight air travel has evolved from compartively small sectional enterprises to a movement of nation-wido moment, a development which took railroads nearly two score years to accomplish. Keen rivalry exists as these concerns strive to bo first to link the East and the West, the North and the South, with flashing planes carrying man about his duties over America.

Turn to Air Almost Overnight America has almost overnight turned to the air. Aviation Interests have seen air travel Increase from 200 to 300 per cent during the first six months of 1929 over the previous half year. The East linked New York and Chicago, and the Midwest followed with another link, which spread to the Southwest. Then came an individual link to the Pacific Coast.
