TWENTY YEARS OF FLIGHT.
Work of the Wright’s in 1923—Develop
ments Now Read Like a Fairy Tate.
Washington, D. ~ Dec. 17—Today is
the twentieth anniversary of an event
epochal, in the history of aviation. On
December 17. 1006, at Kitty Hawk, N.
C., Orville Wright rose from the ground
in the frail structure of wood and wire
and fabrie that he and his brother had
built at Dayton and equipped with an
engine also of their own design and con
struction.
The Sight that resulted was a
trivial effort by the standards of today.
It continued only a minute and covered
about two hundred yards, but it was the
first. Never before in recorded history
had a man left the ground and remained
aloft in the power-droven heavier-tlian
air craft under his control, and the work
oif the brothers Wright adds an im
perishable glory to the story of Ameri
can science and invention.
It is not always fully realized how
young the art of flying really is, and it
sometimes comes ns something of n
shock to realize that the first man in the
wdrid to fly is only in early middle
age at the present time. The accomplish
ment of these twenty years has been so
reat that it is difficult to realize the
shortness of time within which that
tremendous development has been com
pressed.
The work of the Wrights was
particularly remarkable in the extent to
which it was purely American. The ex
periments of Maxim and Ader and
others had been made in Europe in the
last decade of the previous century, and
each hnd added his share to the
know-ledge which was to form the bnsis
of the final auebessful achievement.
None, however, had reached the goal,
and when the Wrights started their
work they found much of inspiration
but comparatively few data of direct
value in the records of the struggles of
their predecessors.
The year 1903 saw the work both of
the Wrights and of Langley nearing the
stage of conclusive trial, and the eyes of
the aeronautical world were fixed firmly
on America. The Langley aerodrome re
ceived its second unsuccessful trial,
terminated by a failure of si he launching
apparatus at Wide water only five days
before tire successful flight of Orville
Wright over the North arolina sand
dunes.
The story has often been told, and

Commissioner.
there should be no reason for con
troversy between the partisans of
Langley and those of the Wrights.
Each made a distinct contribution. It
was for the Wrights that the final,
triumph was reserved, hat America has
reason to be very proud of the work of
the former secretary of the Smithsonian
Institution as well as that of the Day
ton inventors. -
Those who have undertaken the
development of seronnutics In America
since 1908 have not been recreant to
their trust. The effectiveness of their
work is best portrayed by the position
that American aviation occupies today,
with the world's records for altitude and
stfeed held on American airplanes, de
signed and built and piloted by Ameri
cans.
During the late war the marvels of
aviation development in the United
Stateß were almost like a fairy tale.
One of the most remarkable achieve
ments was the production of 14,000
Liberty motors during the brief period
of the conflict. Another wonderful de
vice that was given birth at the same
time was the radiophone, an invention
which enabled American air sqqUadron
commanders to--direct and control by
voice the movements of individual
units, who in turn helped Allied
artillerymen to silence the German
guns. ■*
