After a busy career of forty years Mr. Ryan felt he could unharness himself from hia, many buaineaa responribllltlee and de vote hia life to comparatrre leisure. "Thla step baa been taken after long and mature deliberation." he said. "There la no significance to It other than, that my doctors told ma I ought to let up.

Bishop, president of the Aero Club of America, predicts that within a abort time the United States supreme court will be called upon to settle the seemingly fantastic question of right-of-way through the sir. Mr. Bishop says: "As a matter of fundamental law, every man la a dirigible balloon or an aeroplane guilty of trespass when he passes over another man'a land. Me has no more right to sail a mile over your farm than be has to dig a tunnel under It. Of course the thing looks absurd now, but within the next decade, probably much sooner than that, these casea will be tn the courts and will have to be decided one way or an other. "When aeroplanes come Into use radical changes will have to be made In these matters or the cities will lose a part of their revenues. These automobiles in the air will be able to slip into the city at any convenient point at any hour of the day or night. In fact, the people of the Euro pean countries all along the frontiers are giving very serious thought to these mat ters They realise- that geographic! ounl arlea are being destroyed. They know that smuggling will be made the easiest thing on earth and that the air will be swarm ing with areoplane spies and scouts If military activity should call their services into play."
