The Timis Aerodaution? Correspondent writes: Though one welcomes the Guildhall sir conference heartily, because, nothing but good, can come from it, it is not eksy to:
a reduce the pointa ng issue to anything like a formula. The upheavaling service Aying following the war, the partial ratrac tion of an abnormal growth to one which was rigidly normale has been a time of bitterness and trial; but it has been gone through firmly calmly and efficiently Wishin the limits imposed by retrenchment and "economy" "our" air service is, and will be, the finest in the world. On its technical side, too, and in its expert probing into new methods and machines, it gives ope svery confidence. With more money more could be dage; but with the money actually forthcoming one may safely take it that everything possible, is being done.

Commercial air transport, represented by. the airways between this country and the Continent, is now giving excellent promise. Small profits have been made already under most "unfavourable conditions. Machines aru ngan forthcoming, which are the first real attempt to produce commercizi saro- planes this coming winter can be sure vived and it should be, with the develop ment of cargo transport by air-the promise for 1921 should be excellent. This is lock- ing upon air transport as a small and quite separato, but hopeful branch of the gen eral problem. That the demand for com- mercial transport machines can keep say thing like a big designing and manufactur ing industry in existence is plainly impo sible. The machines required, though they will increase in number, will be a drop.
