Post-Dispatch Bureau, 20-23 Wyatt “Building. WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.—Army air service pilots have flown 951,- 130 miles over the “model airway” since the first chain was estab- lished in May, 1922, without a sin- gle fatality. As orginally established, the model airway connected New York, Washington, Norfolk, Va., and Dayton, O. It was later extended to include Detroit and Rantoul, M1. At present it includes St. Louis, Kansas City, Muskogee, Dallas, Fort Worth and San Antonio. ‘On account of the experimental work which is centered at McCook fiscal year,’ June 30, 1925, the weekly schedule provided for flights over the airway totaling 7000 miles. These flights are car- ried out by eight air stations, each sending one plane over the eastern or southern divisions every other week. Each trip averages approxi- mately 2200 miles, with 18 stops. Since the airway was first estab- lished 546 flights have been start- ed and 525 finished. Pilots making these flights, in the aggregate, spent 11,583 hours in the air in covering 951,130 miles, carried 849 passengers and 46,707 pounds of express matter. In all this flying | tional expense to the army. The operation of the mode! air- way has served two important pur- _ poses—training air service person- nel in cross-country flying and demonstrating the practicabiNty of commercial aviation. One of the most important features of the air- way is the development of a mete- orological service. The Signal Corps of the army and the Weather Bu- reau are now co-operating to ex- terg@i this service as commercial av- iation expands. NEGROES ASSAIL COOLIDGE FOR GIVING JOB TO KLAN OFFICER President Has Proved Disappoint- ing, if Not Menace, to Future of Race, Newspaper Says. Special to the Post-Dispatch. | WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.—Presi- dent Coolidge’s failure to appoint any negro to office and his selec- tion of a Ku Klux Klan official to be customs collector at Savan- /nah have so aroused negro leaders | here that they are on the war path lin politics. Local negro newspapers bitterly assail Mr. Coolidge, one declaring editorially that “Coolidge has not lived up to the hopes and expecta- tions of those who loudly praised him.” “oolidge has proved disappoint- ing, if not a menace to the future of the colored race,” continued the editorial. ‘“‘The Klan against whom campaign, has thrived wonderfully under his benevolent smile. “The hordes of those who preach ‘white superiority’ and breed race hatred were allowed to march bold- ly down Pennsylvania avenue while suits which miraculously did not come. “And now comes the announce- ment, in the face of the absence of recognition of the colored man, that a\ Kian leader has been ap- pointed a collector of customs. We may come through these four years wiser but sadder.” The appointment which has aroused the ire of the negro Re- publican organizations is that of Marion O. Dunning, said to be a chief.of the Georgia Kian. Dun- ning went to the Democratic con- vention as a McAdoo supporter and was reported to have aided the Re- publicans in West Virginia after | John W. Davis had denounced the | Klan. President Coolidge chose him as the Savannah collector of | customs from among a dozen or | more candidates, including several ‘| backed by negro organizations. ‘DIES TRYING TO AID SWIMMER | Body of Girl Indicates Excitement | Caused Heart Failure. By the Associated Press. WAUKEGAN, IIL, Aug. 27.— Erga Karjala, 18 years o14, of Waukegan was drowned in Lake Michigan yesterday and Mamie Klemola, 18, her companion since childhood, died trying to rescue her.
