He adds that on August 23 two of r^n^M ?gUlar soldiers were killed, but the tribesmen report that on the next day they had time to take to the ^rTf*^ constructed some time ago at Raisuli's orders ana there were no casualties. They report that five bombs were dropped on the first day and 11 on the second. The moesmen describe the aeroplane as armoured, and they state that they were unable to shoot it down, afthough it was flying at a low elevation. They are undoubtedly im pressed by this new type of machine. Civil Aviation In France FROM information received by the Petit Parisian, it appears tnat a vast system of aeroplane routes is soon to be opened up which will cover the whole of France.

A service between Paris and Lille is already established, and one between Bordeaux and Nice is to be started before long. Several firms are ex perimenting with a view to producing a machine specially suitable for touring purposes. Aviation, adds the Petit Parisien, is to play a principal role, especially in the colonies. Several of them will possess a regular aeroplane service. The first system will be estab lished in Morocco. A project is being considered for estab lishing aeroplane communication between the auriferous regions of French Guiana and the coast. International Air Traffic AN International Conference of Aerial Traffic Companies has been held at The Hague, states the Morning Post corre spondent at Amsterdam, at which it was decided to institute a combination of interests under the title of " The Inter national Air Traffic Association." A Franco-Spanish Service A FRENCH aviation company of Toulouse has been authorised to begin an air service over Spanish territory from Portbou, on the Franco-Spanish frontier, to Cadiz, with compulsory stops at Barcelona and Malaga and facilities for establishing other intermediate aerodromes. A Handley-Page Service In Brazil WITH characteristic enterprise the Handley-Page com pany has secured the first complete aerial concession from the Brazilian Government. We understand the concession is to carry mails and passengers between Buenos Aires and Pernambuco (2,725 miles), and the intervening towns. The final plans are now nearing completion, and it is hoped to begin the service very soon. .At first flying will be by day only, and the trip will take four days. It is hoped later to run a night service as well as a day one. An Italian Aeroplane for Holland THE Director-General of the Italian Aviation Depart ment has presented to the Dutch Military Aviation Service an aeroplane of wholly Italian construction as a token of the sympathy and cordial relations existing between Italy and Holland. The Dutch Government has accepted the gift with thanks. IIQO
