AVIATORS TUNE UP
FOR INDIANA TOUR
\ 1,. S' ,Sl~
ms /
Thirteen unlucky? Ed New, Indianapolis attorney, doesn’t believe
so, for that's the figure his Curttss-Wright Junior airplane will carry
on the fourth all-Indiana air tour, July 5-10.
Last year on the tour New asked for and got No. 13. This year he
requested the same rating and is shown here handing his entry blank
to Herbert O. Fisher, tour director, on the right, with the stipulation
that he may paint another 13 on his fuselage.
Planes to Leave Here on
July 5, and Return
on July 10,
It’s air tour time in Indiana.
Veterans of three past sky jaunts
around the state, novices to whom
the trip will be anew aerial adven
ture, and a group of aviators com
prising the tour committee are
blending efforts to groom final plans
for this year's trip, July 5-10.
An itinerary, not so extensive as
those of previous years, has been
partially arranged. Herbert O.
Fisher, director of aeronautics for
the Chamber of Commerce, and di
rector of the tour this year, has
received a handful of entries and
has been notified informally of
many others.
At local airports, as well as on
fields in other cities in the state,
paint brushes are adding gleaming
lines to planes that will start from
Hoosier airport here Tuesday, July
5, and return Sunday, July 10.
Sponsored by the Indiana Air
craft Trades’ Association, the an
nual tours are planned to promote
and develop aviation in Indiana
cities, chiefly through a physical
demonstration of the reliability of
air travel and through promotion
of new and improved airports, mu
nicipal and private.
More than thirty ships will join
the aircade this year, Fisher says.
Five overnight stops have been ar
ranged already, together with two
mid-day halts.
Leaving Indianapolis the tour will
stop at Bloomington for lunch, and
proceed to Evansville for the night.
At Evansville the tour will become
a part of the dedication of the
new bridge spanning the Ohio be
tween Evansville and the Kentucky
shore.
The next night will be spent In
Terre Haute. The third will be
punctuated with a luncheon stop at
Lafayette, and will terminate in
Michigan City for the night. The
fourth night will be spent in Ft.
Wayne and the last night in Mun
cie. Other mid-day halts will be
booked within the next two weeks,
according to Fisher.
H. Weir Cook is chairman of the
committee planning the tour. Other
members are: H. H. Maxwell of
Central Aeronautical Corporation, at
Municipal airport here: Bob Shank,
president of Hoosier airport; Clyde
Shockley, manager of the new
Muncie municipal airport, and
Charles E. Cox Jr., superintendent
of Indianapolis municipal field.
In addition to the civilian planes
that will enter the cavalcade, Lieu
tenant Stanton T. Smith, command
ing officer of the army air corps
reserve field at Ft. Benjamin Har
rison, will take at least four, and
perhaps more, army craft.
One of these, which he will fly,
will carry Fisher in advance of the
other planes. Three others, big ob
servation planes, will fly in forma
tion. Lieutenant Smith will name
the pilots later.
The tour will end on municipal
field here.

of extravagance that yields no ade
quate service to Its people.
“In face of these facts.” the
speaker asserted, “we can reach but
one conclusion as to the character
of our government today, and that
is that it is a political racket; its
main purpose being not to pro
mote the welfare of the masses, but
to enrich a few who have parasiti
cally fastened themselves upon the
taxpayer's pocketbcok.”
If elected and fliven *o-ope ration
of the “good citizens of Indiana,”
Fredrick pledged himself “to squeeze
the graft and political racketeering
extravagance out of our govern
ment.”
“I will reduce the size of the state
government of Indiana to such an
extent that we can again put it in
the statehouse where it belongs
and whose commodious quarters it
never should have been permitted
| to outgrow.” he promised.
“The controlling factors of our
; economical life today are greed and
! fear,” Fredrick asserted, “two at
i tributes of the human mind and
I heart that always spell disaster
when allowed to control individual,
group, social or economic life.
“What we must do is substitute
intelligent direction of the economic
forces and courageously face the
need of change in our economic
policies. The change that is essen
j tial is the placing of the human be
ing, his needs and his wants, as the
objective of our economic system
which we have employed in the
| past,”

pm Ireland and recognition of
“United Ireland” as a republic is
the ultimate aim of the Eamon De
Valera government. Dominions Sec
retary J. H. Thomas revealed today
in the house of commons.
Thomas said that during De Va
lera's recent visit here the Free
State president was told that no
British government ever would
agree to such a suggestion.
Thomas' statement was made
TUNE 17, 1932
after he had received a communique
from Dublin outlining the Free
State’s position on disputed ques
tions.
Thomas revealed that the Free
State accepted the principle of ar
bitration on the question of land
annuities, but made “important
qualifications.’'
Fur farming is one of the most
important industries of Canada.
