Pioneers of World Air Routes
Representing & fifth of & century of progress in international ail
service, and over 7,000,000 passengers carried overseas. Pan Ameri
(can World Airways this year celebrated its 20th Anniversary. Cap.
tain Basil Rowe, above, one of the 129 of the airline’s pilots who have
flown over 1,000,000 miles, has logged over 3,500,000 miles and the
equivalent of almost three consecutive years in the air since his in
troduction to flying in 1917.
The 1927 crossing of the 90 miles of open water between Key
West, Florida, and Havana, Cuba, in a wooden-winged, three motored
Fokker (shown right above) flying at 85 M.P.H. and carrying only 8
passengers is a far cry from today’s globe-circling in luxurious Con
stellation, D-C 4 and Boeing Stratocruiser type Clippers. This route
was only the first for Captain Rowe and other Pan American pilots as
they stretched their pioneer services to South America. China, the
Central Pacific, the North Atlantic and Africa.
Today’s establishment of round-the-world service is the line's
latest first. Soon it is to be joined by the first domestic route
to fly high-speed, long-haul, non-stop express flights within the U.S.,
‘inking their coastal terminals if a program r.ow pending before the
Civil Aeronautics Board is ipproved. se

Nebraskans
Can Well Be
Thankful
Among many things for which
Nebraskans may be thankful
is this State’s excellent liquor
control statutes.
These laws are clear, enforce
able, and have the backing of
public sentiment.
They provide that violating
taverns may lose their license.
That’s why, today, tavern
keepers generally are striving
to operate in the public interest
—to keep their places clean,
wholesome and decent — to
eliminate sales to excessive
drinkers and minors.
You, as a citizen, have a duty
in still further improving the
State’s beer retailing condi
tions. It’s your duty to demand
Strict enforcement of the law
... to discourage excessive
drinking and unsocial conduct.
The Nebraska Committee, U.
S. Brewers Foundation, wants
and works for strict law en
forcement, and welcomes all
opportunities to cooperate with
citizens to this end.
