In the We! place, its contents gives a. most striking insight into the remarkable Pr0f."'sis which has been made in mignzvrcial aviation, and, amondly, the rl"lli -r is impressed with the con- vaient. The pirneor work done by eomtavreial organizations. the Pre. virures cf Ontario snd Cluobee and the " 13an (Lvemnrmt through the agency of the Canadian Royal Air Force, has been highly successful. Forest type seketehime and reconnais- sance from tho air are accepted to. day without quesiton as being quick, tteeurtbto and, in many cases, cheaper than other methods of achieving the sum emb.

Tho year 1926 will stand oat in history as a milestone in the develop- ment of civil aviation in Canada, not because commercial ttring was first introduced laat year, for tho Domin- inn ha been a fertile fseid for the dove!opment of commercial aviation rince 1919, but oecause last year on! greater advancus made and a more universal acceptance of the value of civil aviation than in any previous rear. When. after the armistice. the Canadian Government faced the pr. Mom of civil aviation, it was de- oided that organized nit routes were. for tho time being. a luxury which tic. i-nuntry could then ill afford. It was, thrrefore. decided to postpone for the time being the establishment of rottulur air routm until 6natwial cvn-dltiow Wm: bcttor, public opinion mo.“ 1"?zwtiva and tnrroriotttte had Nat tubli " "H BY w. name: " "a, IMPORTANT fir/ds red a rise on. ‘ation in forest my and recon- rtation in the ountry is well with the com opment work re Other new designs are the Vista.

The Vista is equipped with ca Armatrmttrdrrddts1er Genet. i Civil aviation in Canada. is under ',govcrttmental regulation. The iirat Air Board was appointed in 1919 and the control of aviation was adminis- tered by the beard until January, 1923, when tho National Defence Act of 1922 took effect. Under this legis- lation a new department was formed (under the Minister of National De ifence. which was nude responsible for gall matters relating to defence, ilk ’cluding the air force. The control of [civil aviation is, therefore. vested in {the Minkter of National Defence and [is carried out under his authority. Late in 1919 a series of air reguhs itiom was drawn up and put into [effect in 1923. These regulations At present the Canadian Vickers Co. has plans for a number of inter- eating new planes which will, in marry respects, make history in Canadian aviation. since they represent consid- erable advances over former designs. The rest of these new designs Is a general purpose type plane, capable ot operating upon wheels, pontoon: or skis. The machine, which is known as the Vanessa, is a cabin type bi- plane with comfortable seating ch pacity for four passengers in addition to tho pilot. The engine is either the Armatrortg-f%ddekry Lynx airoooledi engine (British make) or the Wn'ght‘ Whirlwind air-cooled radial (Amer- ican make). l There is a limitel amount of air- craft manufacturing carried on in Canada tho majority of planes being manufactured by Canadian Viekers. The Canadian market for aircraft still draws upon American manufac- turers to a very large extent but last year the Canadian Vickers Co. alone produced the patrol type flying boats known as the Vedette type. This is a single engine plane with a pusher air screw. the power-plant being a Wright Whirlwind air-cooled engine of 200 horsepower. These regulations provide, in brief, for tho rogiotration, verification of tsirw,,cth'.nssss, and marking of lir- craft, thc licensing of airdromes, lie.. ensing of pilots and mechanics and tho use of lights for night flying. As " result rf-or perhaps it might be said, in apite or-those regulations, the Canadian aircraft industry can only bo regarded as flourishing, there being eight aerial service operators, namely, Canadian Airways Limited, J.

Negotiations with Rogers were checked up and found to have gone back over a period of three months. Different men interested in radio had talked to him and he had “There we were, two ham from our banquet, covers laid for 1,500 at tho Commodore Hotel and twenty-six large broadcasting stations in all parts of tho country were to go on the air at 9 o'cloek with our program, the largat single broadcast up to that time. United States Senator Dill of Washington and Commander Donald B. MacMillan, the explorer, were our speakers, with a long list of distin- guisher radio entertainers, topped by the star, Will Rogers. Of course everybody wanted to hear Rogers on a national chain broadcast. I To the listening public, and to many of the diners actually present, Rogers' appearance seemed only an amusing, impromptu stunt, but behind it than as the making of a few gray hairs for the cowboy comedian as well as several others.
