AIR MAI*. SERVICE.
Air mail service is now an established
thing. It has only been a short time, (
to be sure, since the experiments with ,
tlie airplane as mail carriers were made, .1
but the tests have proved the idea a s eas-- i
ible one and the service is to be regain- <
ed-. In fact, the air mail mates which
were first established proved so satis
factory that announcement is made of
the establishment of eight new routes.
The eight new routes will be used in
part for night flying. The first night
route was operated recently ard it has
proved feasible, the plan opening up .1
service that extends from one side of
the country to theother.
On the eight new routes to be estab
lished, according to a report from Wash
ington. the mail is to be carried at an
average speed of 90 miles an hour. This,
means that the airmen at times will have
to (make 100 miles an hour, establishing
a ■ new speed record for the transporta
tam of mail.
.One of the new routes, say 'Washing
ton dispatches, comes into the south
east, connecting Birmingham and Chica
go. Under the schedule of this rou'e
mail leaving Birmingham a few minutes
before midnight will reach Chicago about
7 o’clock in the morning. "This means.''
says the dispatch, “that Birmingham bus
iness men can mail letters at the close
of tbeir business each day\with the as
surance that they will be delivered in
Chicago in time for the opening of busi
ness the following morning.' Os course
the service will be of great benefit to
| the entire section around Birmingham,
, for mail reaching that city late in the
I afternoon and early night can be rush-
I cd to Chicago on the night planes.
B The most important business centers
■ were first bridged by the air mail ser
■ vice, but it seems reasonable to presume
■ that in the near future the service will
■be extended to all sections of the coffn-
Btry. There seems to be no doubt that
■a service will he inaugurated very soon
■connecting New York and New Eng-
Bland points with the South Atlantic
■States and event Florida.
■ ANOTHER “CLEAN IP WEEK.”
■ Plans have, been outlined for another
■dMD Up Week” in Concord. Such an
■event is to be welcomed, especially in
■view of the fact that it comes at an un-
Husual titne. Heretofore Concord has
■observed “Clean Up Week” during some
■Spring month and nothing else has been
■done until another Spring rolls around.
■However, the present city officials deem
■it wise to conduct such a campaign at
■this time of the year and they are effer
■in« an opportunity for every household-
Her in iioacora to g£t itts premises clean
§ Tie opportunity should be seised
■with test, and it no doubt will be Thous
■ respond almost unanimously.
nifv arp iminr to conduct the!
a similar one was conducted only a few
weeks ago, is an encouraging sign. It
indicates that perhaps before long, the
campaigns will come close enough togeth- j
et to constitute a regular schedule.
OUR FOREIGN TRAM BALANCE.
The favorable trade balance of the
United States for the twelve months
ending June 30 was $1,042,681,497; im
ports totaled $3,824,972,848, and exports
$4,887,654,344.
Foreign trade for the year shows a
heavy increase over 1924 and 1923.
“The most permanently significant
change 'in our export movement,” said
Secretary Hoover, in a review of busi
ness conditions for the last calendar
year,” was an increase of 7 1-2 per cent,
in manufactured goods as compared with
the previous year.
“Our merchandise exports exceeded our
imports by $980,000,000. The current
items of “Invisible imports'—that is,
‘tourist expenditure, immigrant remit
tances, for shipping, etc., to
taling about $1,180,000,000 in 1924, how
ever, considerably exceeded the current )
“invisible exports ’’(chiefly interest on
foreign loans, etc., and receipts of our
merchant marine), amounting to. about
$790,000,600.
““Nevertheless a large fraction of the
heavy merchandise balance in our favor
was taken care of by our loans to for
eign countries of nearly one billion dol
lars. We imported on balance about
$258,000,000 of god and there was some
cross-current of European capital toward
the United States in the flight from the
unstable currencies of certain countries.”

IN r. AND N. EXTENSION
1 . •- *
Has Stirred Piedmont Section As No <
Other Project In Decade, Says Morrt-
Charlntte. July 15—With the rnaohip
ery definitely established, in several towns i
in the movement intended to persuade J. i
|B. Duke to build an extension of the ,
Piedmont and Northern electric railway
from Charlotte to Winston-Salem, via
Lexington, former Governor Cameron
i Morrison, who is the active leader in
i this effort, declared here that the pro
posal, first announced here has
stirred western North Carolina as no de
-1 velopment project has in a decade.
Charlotte, Concord and Salisbury busi
-1 ness men, at mass meetings, already have
taken action intended to give strength to
t the new movement, which, if successful,
i would entail an expenditure of about
$15,000,000 by Mr. Duke. The Lions
Club of Charlotte was the first civic er
r ganization to name * committee from its
• membership to eo-operate with the c«n
--» tral Charlotte committee named Satur
day.
Former Governor Morrison* expressed
the opinion' that the definite 'proposal
would be presented to Mr. Duke within
ten days. Mr, Morrison declared the
present plan is for the committees from
the various organized bodies *of the towns
along the route will be formed into one
j committee, having a membership of about
200. This eoiammitfee will seek a con
ference with Mr. Duke soon after bis re
turn here, which is expected to bf early
next week. At that time, he will be
formally asked to consider taking early
action looking to the carrying out of his
dream of ’many years ’relative to further
development of this electric line.
Vigorous denial was made Dy Mr. Mor
rison that Mr. Duke has determined to
construct this extension of his railway.
"I know what I am talking about and
I know he has decided no suoh of a thing.
I think he is very friendly to the [fropo
sition, and wouhl like to bnild it. but I
know he has no notion of doing it now,
unless he can pe persuaded that the peo
ple of the state want it and that the peo
ple of the communities, through which
the proposed road will pass, will pledge
to him their favorable sentiment, co-op
eration and * fair amount of their pat
ronage.” Mr. Morrison added that Mr.
Duke, he knew, would not entertain a
proposal to sell stock in such a project.

Guilty of ManlMMhter In Running Over j
a Boy.
Newton. July Iff.—Wofford Hilton was
found guHfv of manslaughter late Tues
day afternopn. Sentence has not yet
been passed, by Judge Shaw. The esse
was begun Monday Were
a large number b t- witnesses on each side.
The case hinged on ttie quedfion ns to
whether the defendant was' complying
with the automobile speed law and the
highway warning-ree.'ii'ing him to drive
slowly in passii%-a school; and whether
he did all ; in his power to avoid running
over the little boy who was killed by- his
ear at Blackburn sc’iiool ca the morning
of February 18th. There was direct
conflict between witnesses for the state
and the witnesses for the defendant on
these points. The judge eliminated ftll
other verdicts except manslaughter and
not guilty. The jury reached an agree
ment on manslaughter after a short de
liberation.
