Lindbergh Endorses Goddard Rocket Study for Fast Flight
Colonel Charles A Lindbergh praised Professor Robert H Goddards rocket experiments as a possible path to higher transport speeds in a letter from Clark University. He compared the work to Langley and Wright efforts and said rockets could free mankind from aerial constraints, with instruments reaching altitudes beyond sounding balloons. The letter, addressed to Clark president Wallace Atwood, drew praise from aeronautics figures including Alexander Klemin and Frew W Kessler. Goddards early Worcester work evolved to propulsion and control methods, culminating in rockets reaching about 700 mph.

Bolshevists, after years of Western aid, now seek mass production tactics and broad planning from the United States to advance a ten year plan. The airplane industry decision to adopt American methods is cited as key, with about 800 Soviet technicians gaining visas to study in the U.S. in the past six months.
