Army and Navy Suffered
.oases During Last Year
ton.? Thirty-six aviators
tvous with death during
[as forfeited for about every
lies flown.
lout- naval flyers were ki 11tiniately
one per 300,000
irison, routine commercial
ars almost monotonously
safe. Government aviators in the
transcontinental air mail service flew
2,292,263 miles and only one man was
killed.
Civilian aviators on the supplementary
contract air routes flew 2,086,396
miles with only two casualties.
Accidents took toll, however, in less
regulated fields of commercial and
private aviation. The National Aeronautical
Chamber of Commerce estimates
that, outside of the air mail
service, there were 153 plane accidents,
in which 154 flyers were injured
and seventy-five killed.
The chamber attributes these accidents
chiefly to lack of weather data,
engine trouble and piloting errors in
the order named.
Reports from other countries give
evidence of growing safety in regulated
commercial aviation. On the
other hand, more British army aviators
were killed than American.
Indians Captured at Still
A trap which had been set for
eight days, was sprung at daylight on
Wednesday morning, ensnaring twj
men, the largest and most elaborate
still captured in many years in this
section, 2,000 gallons of mash and <
a small quantity of whiskey, says a J
Rock Hill dispatch of Thursday: The
prisoners were taken on charges of
violating the prohibition laws, and
are Edward and Allen Brown, Catawba
Indians and brothers. At least one
more man escaped. The scene was
otf Catawba river a few miles from
Catawba Junction.?Lancaster News.
