ENGLISH AIR LINES
E
IMPBQVEO
Three Companies Have Different
Routes Line May Be Ex
tended to Constan
tinople. English air linos, r whlcl. there
were two when the year started, and
when It ended three, are at present
subsidiped by government. The ar
rangement originally was that the
gvernment should provide machines
on a hire-purchase basis which had
the advantage of ekeping in being
aeroplane manufacturing firms and
allowing the air companies to provide
new machines out of income. In nd-
ditin a subsidy was paid of 25 per
cent oi the gross takings, plus a
grant of 3 per passenger and 3d
per pound of freight carried; the
company also received a proportion
of the insurance costs. The hire pur.
chase had to be paid in monthly in
stallments, spread over two and a half
years, the machines hten becoming
the property of the company at a
price equalling three-quarters of its
initial cost.
This has now been changed to a
scheme on competitive lines, the
three companies being allotted dif
ferent routes. llandley Page keeps
the London-Paris run; Instone takes
London-Rrussels and Cologne, while
Daimler takes a route from Manches
ter to London and then to Amster
dam. Roth these latter routes may
extend later to Constantinople with
isions in the future of Cairo, Bagh
dad and India. The new scheme pro
vides for a total subsidy of 200,000
divided proportionately between the
three companies for a stipulated mim
her of flights, in addition to the hire
purchase system, which is to be con
tinued. The three lines have dis
tances of 225,310 and 800 odd miles
respectively. Arrangements are also
in progress for a sea-plane route be
tween Southampton, the Channel
Islands and Chesbourg.
Machines have been enormously im
proved both in reliability and pas
senger carrying capacity. Two years
ago aeroplanes carried two and four
pas-sengers. Today they carry ten or
t- elve. The ground organization and
wireless communication, both tele
graphic and telephonic, have made
both fog and nightflying far safer, as
even if the arrival station is fog
bound a pilot can be directed to a
f ok free area to land.
As regards airships, the Air Minis
try seems to be offering no encour
agement, probably from an economy
point of view. Time alone can prove
the wisdom of this.
It is interesting to compare the en
durance of an aeroplane nowadays and
immediately after the war In 1919. It
was then roughly estimated at 100
flying hours, or about 10,000 miles.
These figures were later doubled, but
there is a machine running today on
the Daimler Manchester-London-Am
sterdam service and which up to the
end of December had covered over
100,000 miles or more than 1,000 hours'
flying. And to clinch its claim to
first place this same machine, flying
as a Christmas holiday special, left
London just before 8 a. m. and flew
to Manchester, where it took on an
other load of passengers and fuel,
and returned to London, .which it
reached at 12:10 p. m., or a quarter
of an hour faster than the railway
express single journey.
In August and September 13,434
passengers booked in and out of Le
Bourget, the Taris aerodrome, as
compared with 691 in all of 1919, while
the nieage registered y French
machines totals up at something
more than 9,000,000 miles.
Great Britain is responsible for the
most powerful aeroplane engine in
the world, the Napier "Cub" of 1,000
h. p. This is only indirectly inter
esting to commercial aviation, as it
has been fitted to a military bombing
machine.

What has the future in store for us?
On December 2T we read of a French
aviator flying on a little aeroplane
with a wing span of 25 feet descend
ing on a main road in Paris, folding
hack his wings and taxi ing to take
his place among the motor cars out
side the exhibition. It is true a gen
darme took his name for the orfense
of alighting in the city, but it Is only
twenty-five years since a motor car
in England had to proceed at not
more than four miles an hour with
a man walking in front with a red
flag.
The joint appropriations commit
tee of the legislature has approved
the budget for the University of Utah
as submitted by President Thomas,
and with the ' committee's recom
mendation Is ready to be acted upon
by the legislature. It is expected that
it will be presented either today or
tomorrow for definite action.
If the bill becomes a law it means
that the University will have added
income during the coming biennium.
The bill carries a special appropria
tion of $226,000 in addition to the
regular sum set aside for the use of
the University from the revenue de
rived from taxation. Two years ago
the special appropriation made by
the legislature amounted to $126,000
so that the present appropriation ex
ceeds the one made at that time by
$100,000.
The straitened circumstances of
the University will be considerably
relieved if those in favor of the bill
are able to secure its passage. It will
mean that the finances of the insti
tution will be in better condition than
at any time in the last four years.
During he time forced economies
have been made in every department.
Many departments have had their
work seriously hampered because of
the lack of the necessary revenue.
With this added income much can
he done in adding to the equipment
of these departments.
The rapid increase in the number
of students registered has far ex
ceeded expectations. All available
room on the campus has been utilized
for class work. The growth in regis
tration has necessitated the employ
ment of additional instructors. This
has made one need for increased rev
enue. Another reason is the loss of
certain sources of income such as
the hygiene fund, and appropriation
by the government, which has been
withdrawn.
The action of the legislature and
governor upon the pending bill will
be watched with Interest by the Uni
versity because of the specific bear
ing the bill has upon the welfare of
th institution. The Utah Chranicle.
Modern Method
Is Employed to
Advertise Meet
Modern scientific advertising meth
ods were inaugurated on te campus
Wednesday when a huge basketball
made of snow and seamed with lamp
black was constructed by the Boost
ers club to advertise the basketball
tournament to be held here March
8, 9, and 10.
Standing eight feet high and per
fectly sculptured, the ball Is situated
in an open space between three ar
teries of campus travel. It Is topped
with placards advertising the tourna
ment. More than fifty freshmen working
in one-hour shifts of ten men wert
employed in the construction of the
massive sphere. Bare spots extend
ing like wheel spokes from the ball
to the walks surrounding the plot in
dicate that snow-rolling methods were
used to accumulate enough snow for
the undertaking.
Joseph E. Dunleavy, Varsity football
man, was placed in charge of the
construction by Delbert E. Jack,
chairman of the tournament commit
tee and originator of the idea.

Junior men at Ohio State U. are
worrying about finding dress suits for
junior prom. One junior, however,
uses uncanny strategy, according to
the Ohio State Lantern.
"Why worry about a suit?" he asks.
"Let the girls find them. I told five
different girls that the first one who
brought me a suit could go to the
prom with me The stunt worked
last year, so I'm trying it again this
time."
