CIVIL AVIATION 13 IMPORTANT IN BUSINESS LIFE Many Uscs Have Been Found For Aircraft in Canada Ottawa, Ont., Sept. 20--Civil aviation in Canada has become an important factor in the many phases of the business and com- muninty life of the Dominion, It is just ten years since civil aviation began in the Dominion, when, after experiments carried out by the Federal Government in forest fire protection, com- mercial aviation company Obtained a contract from the Quebec Pro- vincial Government to patrol a large area of forest land in the St. Maurice valley for fire detec- tion during the summer of 1919. Since this beginning progress has been steady and new developments in aircraft and methods of opera- tion has aided greatly in the gen- eral advancement of this branch of flying. Many uses have been found for aireraft which include forest fire detection and suppdession; timber cruising; aid photography; trans- portation of passengers, express and mail; instruction; advertising, sightseeing, and "joyriding,'"', six- ty-two organizations or individuals are now engaged in civil flying, including the Ontario Provinefal Alr « Service, while. twenty-one Light Aeroplane Clubs are in oper- ation, There are 330 aireraft li- censed for commercial use in the Dominion, by Department of Na- tional Defence, and 278 commer- cial pilots and 253 air engineers hold certificates. Fifty-three afr- ports and seaplane ports are simi- larly licensed, while a large num-, ber o - municipalities in every pro- vince are giving consideration to construction of airports. Nine schools of flying are conducted and a. large number of pupils are re- ceiving. instruction, In addition there are 22 private owners of air- craft, and 221 licensed private pilots, Apart from the forest areas, which are patrolled during the season of fire hazard each year by Dominion Government, and com- mercial operators covering some 250,000,000 acres, perhaps the most important part being played by aircraft is in connection with mineral development in the north- ern part of the Dominion. Com- mercial companies have been form- ed and have successfully organized the northland with adequate fuel caches so that to-day every district is within flying range of 'a base. Another important phase of de- velopment is the carriage of mail by air linking scattered commun- ities and annihilating distance. Eighteen months ago mai lwas de- livered to a few outlying districts under special arrangement be- tween Post Ogice Department and commercial operators. In Decem- ber, 1927, the Postmaster Gen- eral awarded the first contract for the carriage of mail between Leam- ington and Pelee Island, Ontario, for the period of closed navigation, Since then extensions of the air, mail service havec.been made and in 1928 there were ten services in operation. This year further ex- tensions are being made with the ultimate object" of * establishing a { main 'trunk line from the Atlantic to the Pacific, with feeder lines - . from other centres, The services at present in. op- eration under contracts with' the .

Kississing-The Pas, The Light Aeroplane Club Move- ment, inaugurated in the autumn of 1927 by the Department of Na- tional Defence to encourage avia- tion, has shown splendid results. Twenty-one clubs are active and it is expected that three more clubs will receive the Government grant of two aircraft in the near future. Clubs have membership of 4,248 of which 279 are solo pilots; ana have to their credit a total of 5,- 975 hours in the air To date this year. » The construction of an airship base and airport at St. Hubert, near Montreal, followed the de- cision of the Dominion to partic- ipate in Empire air communication by airship. A mooring tower has heen erected and equipped with the, most efficient machinery ob- tainable for the recéption of the British airship R. 101, which is ex- pected to make its first trans-A:- lantic passage in the autumn of this year. An aerodrome, compris- ing 792 acres, is being construct- ed which, when completed, will rank as one of the finest in the world. A number of commercial aviation companies use St. Hulert for passenger, freight, and mail ser- vices, It is the terminal for the International Air Serviees between Montreal and New York, and Mont- real and Detroit. Radio and met- eorological stations have been es- tablished, and facilities installed for breadcasting reports to oper- ators over established routes. SPORT OF KINGS Paris, Sept. 20.--The sport of kings in France is in a bad way. The at- tendance at race tracks is decreasing every week although the price of ad- | mission has been reduced. Owing to increased cxpenses of breeding and training and high taxation, French owners cannot make the pace, and the sport is rapidly'getting into the hands of foreigners, five of whom were among the leading owners last yeat, The betting machines at race tracks, upon the receipts from which horse racing is largely dependent for its resources, suffer heavily from the competition of illegal betting. In 1928 the betting machines accounted for $65,000,000, but it is estimated that clandestine bets amounted to at least $200,000,000. As a remedy for this leakage it is proposed to license bookmakers as in England, and io open betting machine offices in the principal cities.
