IN CONCLUSION.
There is no doubt whatever that the Chinese are
keenly interested in Aviation not only from a military
point of vier but also from a commercial outlook.

Owing to the difficult nature of the country pro-
gress must of needs be slow, but as soon se aerodrone a
are established at the most important towns there is no
reason why a network of air lines should not be esta-
blished.
The rivers will solve a lot of the troubles,
and enable seaplane services to be started immediately.
The principle trouble at the moment is that
there are so few Hinese aviators with sound experience,
and I consider that for some years to come, especially
if they propose to develope the various plans for aerial
services, they will have to employ foreign help.
However, Chinese Aviation is no longer a factor
that can be ignored,
