S. Senator Hiram Bingham, president of the National Aeronautic Association, announced yesterday that the Collier Trophy award for 1931 had been made to the" Packard Motor Car Company for the Packard Diesel aircraft engine. The official citation accompanying the award was: "To the Packard Motor Car Company for the Diesel aircraft engine that achieved the airplane world duration record (non-refucling), May 25 to 28, 1933. This award reeogmzis the valuable contribution by the late Capt. L.

M. Woolson in its development." Each year this trophy, the must coveted in American aviation, is awarded by the National Acronuu-yc Asociation "for the greatest Achievement in aviation in America, the, value of which has been demonstrated by actual" use "during the preceding year." A special Collier Trophy committee, composed of aeronautical authorities, met at Washington on March 9 and made the recommendation regarding the 1931 award, which was later approved by Senator Bingham Col. C. deK, Chandler, pioneer ueronaut, was chairman "of this committee. Edward Warner, former Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Aviation and editor of "Aviation;" Glen L.

Martin, pioneer aircraft manufacturer; Maj. Waiter G. K1 filer, U. Army Air Corps, and James ltuy, vice-president of the Autogiro Company of America, were committee Technical details of the automatic rotating beacon lights, developed by the Aeronautics Branch of the Federal Airways Bystem, as disclosed recently in the Brooklyn Daily Times-Btandard Union, have been made available through Col. Clarence M.

Young, Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Aviation.

In the Airways Division's instrument, three these celts are mounted in a round metal case, 54 inches in diameter, the face of which is protected by ordinary glass. This is on the tow-er of the beacon light.

It faces north and is inclined slightly toward the sky, so as to receive a comparatively steady amount of light without getting direct sunlight Night Operation During the night, when the three cells receive little or no light, the switch remuins closed and the beacon light operates continuously. At dawn the light available to the photronic cells gradually increases until it rouches lo-foot candles. There then is a lag of 45 seconds before the mechanism operates, this lag having been introduced to prevent the beacon from flushing on aud o(f intermittently when the light received by the cells is fluctuating slightly in the neigh- i.velopmrnt of the Packard Diesel llorhood of i5.loot canjles.

Clarence M.

Young, Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Aeronautics, The" air line flew 418,386 miles for each accident and 3.021,674 miles -for each fatal accident during this period. The regular semi-annual study of accidents in scheduled air transportation shows that the causes of the 66 accidents were divided as follows: Personnel errors, 18.37 per power plaut failures, 19.25 per airplane failures, 20 miscellaneous, 40.84 per and undetermined and doubtful, 1.64 per cent. The classification miscellaneous include weather, darkness, airport and terrain and other. miscellaneous causes. During this period accident were charged only to weather and to airport and terrain, no air line accidents having been caused by darkness or other miscellaneous causes.

In a study of the injuries and fatalities occurring on scheduled air line accidents during the last half of 1981 it was found that S7 persons suffered minor Injuries, five were burned severely and 24 lost their lives. The latter included 17 passengers, six pilots and one copilot who died in aircraft accidents or as a result of Injuries received in aircraft accidents. In all. there were 206 persons involved in scheduled air transport accidents, of whom 140 escaped without injury. f.I 1.

1 A These questions lia bout asked by Msitors to the citys spacious airport, which in the course of the next month or so promises to become one of the greatest centres of interest and drawing power. With a year of formative existence behind it, the field management looks forward confidently to crowds on Saturdays, Sundays nnd holidays ranging from 25,000 up, and, when unusual attractions are at the field, crow-da of 100,000 do not seem too far-fetched. Retrenchment Blamed In carrying out its program of retrenchment, the city officials have neglected to date to furnish tho airfield with a much needed "crash wagon," although requlsU tlons for it liae been on file in the Dock Department office for months. The ambulance from Kings County Hospital that wa stationed at the field on Saturday and Sunday afternoons has been withdrawn. It is pointed out by civic worker and business men, who with their families enjoy visiting the city air field to witness the flights of tho famous pilots "on the line" who are "passenger hopping," or indulge in a flight now tuid then for tho thnlU it affords, that in the event of a serious crash at Floyd Bennett Field medical aid would be as remote as could be imagined anywhere in the metropolitan area.

Should the plane in a crash take fire, flyer, pilot and passengers would be wholly at the emrey of the blaze, they further point out. Officials at the field are of the opinion that a iire-fiphting apparatus is the moat urgent need. "It would be just too bad if a plane took fire. There is nothing we could do," one of the officials declares. A "crash wagon," similar to those in use at almost every privately conducted airport, is an in-dispensible need, they admit.

Fuch a motor truck would have in its equipment several stretchers, tools and apparatus to free persons caught In the wreckage, splints, etc. Temporary Altl Until such time as the city appropriates funds for this much-needed equipment, without which some visitors declare tho field should not be allowed to operate, tho Naval Reserve Air Corps situated at the field In Hangar 6 is planning to co-operate in the emergency by fitting up a first-aid station in the basement of the administration building. The Navy Department will furnish the equipment and two medical men among the officers on duty at the training station witl act aa first aid medicos. As very littje thing is done on Sundays by the Navy flyers, this will throw a burden upon those volunteering for the first aid work to help out the city, for the greatest amount of passenger hopping takes place on Sundays, and by the same token the greatest possibility of a fatal crash or fire Is on Sundays. Thus far.

In the operation of Floyd Bennett Field, there have been no fatal Occidents. Several minor crack-ups have occurred, the most serious being when several youthful members of the NBS Flying Club were run down in their new plane while taxiing across the field. Roger Q. Williams, noted New York to Rome flyer, smashed up the little Nicholas Beasley plane owned by the local boys and injured several of the occupants. The total lack of facilities for aiding the injured was brought home at that time when one of the youths, with three rlls fractured In the accident.

was ridden In the side car of "a police motorcycle from the field all the way to Kings County Hospital. Funds Have Been Aked When Ruth Nichols, tho Rye society avlatrix, was making ready to hop for New Brunswick before her projected solo flight across the Atlantic, posted assistants were placed along the runway with fire extinguishers, ready to fight a in case of a "crack up." Major J. Nelson Kelly, director of Floyd Bennett Field, admits the need of fire-fighting apparatus and medical equipment He stated yesterdav that requisitions have been forwarded to his superiors and ho holds high hopes that before the season gets well under wav, appropriations for these essential requisites to the field, to assure the safety of pilots and passengers In so far as it Is humanly possible; will be forthcoming.

C. C. Points Out That Detroit Show Offers Many Fine Models. Detroit, March 19. A apecial appeal to the sportsman pilot, the air-minded individual who owns and, in many cases, flies his own airplane, will be a feature of the National Aircraft Show of 1932, Charles L.

Law ranee, president of the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce, the expositions sponsors, said today, "Sportsmen fliers," said Mr. Lawrance, "whether male or female, licensed pilots or air-minded owners, consume a considerable percentage of the airplanes built In this country. Approximately 40 per cent, of the craft produced the United States goeB to the private owners both for pleasure and business use. Especially is the use of airplanes for sports purposes increasing rapidly. Fishermen, hunters, yachtsmen, tourists and sportsmen of all kinfts are using aircraft everywhere in the world.

"The aviation country club, air yacht club and private flying club idea Is spreading constantly. Sportsmen are looking to the air for new thrills. Members of one such club in New York, made up of some of our best known families, own and operate ,180 land planes, seaplanes, amphibious and autogiros. Last year this club conducted a four-day aerial cruise along tho Atlantic seaboard from New York to Massachusetts and return. A similar cruise was made by a group of Englishmen aud women through France.

Hundreds of sportsmen use the airplane exclusively for fishing and hunting, a surprising number of them flying Into the Arctic and Antarctic, The Arctic Ocean, incidentally, Is only tw'o days of flying from New York, and only four days by regular schedule air transport" Many Sportsmen' Practically every ship on display In the National Aircraft Show, which will be held here April 2 to 10, will be of a type which can be and has been used by sportsmen, although the usual plane employed for pleasure purposes is a ship of one to seven place capacity, either of the open or cabin type. These, according to the entry list, will include landplanes, seaplanes, amphibians, boats, open planes, cabin planes, monoplanes, both open and closed; midget planes, huge planes, biplanes, monoplanes and at least one representative of practically every known kind. Besides the planes the show will contain an interesting assortment of aircraft engines and accessories placed on display by more thau 75 manufacturers. Engines of all types, and all kinds of engine accessories, Instruments, propellers, wheels, tires, brakes, shock absorbers, aircraft fabrics, woods and metals, aircraft pontoons and aircraft fuels, aircraft paints, aircraft magazines, schools, airlines, uirport equipment and every conceivable product contributed to the Industry will be on exhibit, making the exposition a true cross-sectiou of a romantic business. Ray Cooper, of Detroit, who managed Bob Fowler during the first west-to-east flight across the natton in 1911-12, and who has directed many national aeronautical exhibitions during recent years, will manage the show.

Mr. Cooper Is manager of the show section of the Aeronautical Chamber. FIVE ELEPHANTS After several weeks In America, M. S. Schauer, African game hunter and guide, sailed last night to return to the jungle, where he has spent the last seven years.

Commenting upon his visit here, Schauer referred to his first airplane ride at Glenn H. Curtiss Airport, North Beach, as his mo-sUm-teresting experience in AmerUa. While at the airport, Sehmier was shown through the DO-X, giant German lying boat, by the pilot, Capt. H. Neumann, who explained that the boat empty weighed 82 tons.

Honeywell's Experiment May Take Big Balloon Race to St. Louis. A test flight to determine the specific gravity of natural gaa delivered In St. Louis and ita practicability for balloon flights is to be made In the near future by Capt. H.

E. Honeywell, veteran St. Louis balloonist, he has announced. Accompanied by at least one person and possibly others, Capt. Honeywell plans to take off from the properties of ths St.

Louis Gas In an effort to determine the lifting power, elasticity, expansion and contraction of this type of gas In varying temperatures. The balloon he will use will be of 80,000 cubic feet capacity and will be 'the one he has used In various national and International balloon competitions. Should the flight prove successful, Capt. Honeywell stated, the results will be forwarded to tho National Aeronautic Association and may be used as a basis tor a formal Invitation to have this year's national balloon races start from 8t. Louis.

In this connection, Capt. Honeywell stated, the gas company has offered to provide free gns should the race be held In St Louis. -j Capt Honeywell Is a noted balloonist. He has participated In many national and international races and has been accorded International honors in ballooning. The exact date of his teat flight has not been fixed, but will likely be within the next few weeks, depending upon weather conditiona COHUATHEAD OF AVIATION CORP.

C. to Cuba, Etc. Evidence of the Increasing force International air service is exerting in stimulation of business travel between the nations of the American continents is contained In the anual traffic report for 1931, made public yesterday, of the Pan-American Airways Bystem, which has now outstripped European leadership and, on figures for the 12 months ended Dec. 30, last, Is the heaviest passenger-carrier of all United States air mall lines. For the year a total of 80,676 passengers were transported over the Pan-American network between he United States and Cuba, the West Indies, Central and South America, the report states.

In a period when all forme of transportation registered substantial declines In this territory, the airways traffic made tm average Increase of nearly 600 passengers per month, for a gain of 6.928, or 17 per cent, over the 84,748 persons carried in 1930. Particular Importance Is attached to the fact that 78 per cent, of the traffic Is made up of commercial passengers who were traveling on business missions between the United States and Latin America. During the reporting period Pan-American Airways System Is also believed to have established a world record for all lines, American or European, with 12,478,600 passenger miles flown, an increase of 39 per cent, over the 8.980,134 passenger miles flown In 1931. The International planes maintained schedules with an efficiency rating for 99.6 per cent, of all trips completed on time. Increase in Airmail Air mall, which Is carried by Pan American to 80 countries and colonies under contract to the United States Post Offlco Department likewise showed a remarkable Increase during the year.

Postal cargoes registered a gain of pounds, or about 8,000 pounds per month over the 1930 total, while steamer mall dropped more than 865,000 pounds for the year. During the month of December, traffto showed a 100 per cent. Increase over the same period of 1931. Officials are Inclined to credit this unusual upswing to the use of the bigger equipment which was put Into service that month, particularly the giant 46-passenger American Clipper and Caribbean Clipper, which are at present ths largest airliners In service anywhere In the world. One of these Flying Clipper Ships makes the 2-hour run between Miami and Havana dally on the 86-hour, rail-air direct service from New Tork to Cuba.

Big 22-passenger flying boats are now In service over all routes In the West Indies and down the East Coast of 8outh America to Klo de Janeiro and Buenos Aires as well as on the trans-Caribbean airline to Colombia and the Panama Canal Zone. TROPHY FOR DOOLITTLE The famous Bendix trophy, one of the most coveted of all aviation awards, will be formally presented to LleuL Jimmy loollttls at the National Aircraft Show, to be held at Detroit. April 2 to 10, Lieutenant Doolittle won the trophy through his record-breaking transcontinental flight during the national utr races held at Cleveland la ear. IS Col.

Reorganization of Universal and Embry-Riddle divisions of American Airways, into one division to be known as the central division, under the direction of Col. Halsey Dunwoody, vice president! was announced in 8t. Louis last week. John Paul Riddle, vice president and general manager of Embry-Riddle division, with headquarters in Cincinnati, -has been transferred to the New York offices of the American Airways Hystem as head of the operations department, Colonel Punwoodys staff at the new division headquarters in St. LouIb follows: Earl Ward, operations manager; Charles B.

Flying Personnel The flying personnel of Central division will include 67 first pilots. 12 co-pilots and four reserve pilots, the majority of whom have been flying their present routes for two or more years in mall and passenger service. Many of the pilots were members of the flving staff of the original lines, whim they were. opened1 for service four and five years ago, before American Airways became the operating company for the Aviation Corporation. At present American Airwavs is a nationwide network of airline spreading from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the Great Lakes to the Qulf of Mexico, serving 68 of the largest cities in the United States.

Other than Central division, there are three other divisions in the American Airways setup, namely. Colonial division, operating between New York.

MERCHANT AIRSHIP Aero Chamber of Commerce, Through Its President, Issues Statement.

The early passage of the Merchant Airship bill is being urged by the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce, national trade body of the aviation industry. Charles L. Lawrence, president of the chamber, outlined the policies of his organization by the following statement: "The chamber supporting H. R. 8681, Introduced by the Hon.

Robert Crosser, believes that economic conditions at the present time make the passage of this legislation necessary to the full development of American air transport services. We regard this legislation as a conservative step towards the extension of American air transport and air mail business overseas to parallel the natural route of our foreign trade. Helium Important "The legislation embraced in the Merchant Airship act, if enacted now, will permit American citizens to participate in the evolution of this Important means of transportation, and will reserve for them a fair share of our future overseas air commerce. The helium resources of this country give American operators a 1 advantage, which is now ready to be utilized, "The Aeronautical Chamber believes that American Industry, with the encouragement of this Merchant Marine act, yylll accept the risks incidental to pioneer operation because assured of tho protection of laws similar to those now controlling shipping -ventures, and because, if technically successful in maintaining scheduled flights, mail revenue at least may be counted on. "The history of transport by airplane shows clearly that passenger and express revenue has been vry slow to develop, and that without the support of mall revenue practically no air transport operations would be in existence today." Franco-Belglan Transnfrican Air Service will be opened before the middle of the present year, according to reports from the French Alt Ministry.

All of the supplementary apparatus (relay, transformer, etc.) is contained lu metal box 10 by 12 inches in size and four inches in depth, installed at the toot of the beacon tower. Once the beacon Is stopped in the early morning, the cells have no further work lo do, as long as the amount of light remains above the operating minimum. However, they continue "on watch," and in case the lights are needed the current generated by cells decreases to an amount sufficient to cause the switch to'tie closed and the beacon turned on.

Iater, the beacon may again be shut down by the cells, and then turned on again at dusk. Thus, the photronic cells will stand guard over the beacon for 24 hours a day, turning it on or off at the proper times with greater promptness timn a human watchman could be expected to achieve. Airmen flying along the Federal Airways stern then will have the aid of the beacon lights not only at night but also during dark periods of the day.
