Aviators Demand Higher Pay For Life Insurance
Washington reports a fleet of about seven aeroplanes to be assembled at College Park this week. Included are two new machines not yet accepted by the government, a weight carrying plane and a swift scouting craft. Army planes from maneuvers in Connecticut and New York will be sent to College Park for thorough overhaul to resume training of recruits. Officials believe the extra pay bill for officers in the flying squad may boost enlistment. Flyers face cancellation of life insurance and seek other protections for their families in case of accident.
