The recently Issued report of the Bureau of Aeronautic of the De-pertinent of Commerce revealing that although the country haa at least 4,650 aviation folds distributed 3itf c.fles ta every Stat In the Inion and not one of them owned by the cf New Tork, haairred ie Hrooklyn HeaJ Estate Buard to an agitation for the establishment of a airplane landing field tn this vicinity.

The board haa voiced an appeal for prompt action by the city authorises toward this end and yesterday announced the appointment of a committee of the organisation whl.h, as well aa urging upon the municipality the necessity of municipal w'll conduct a survey to ascertain the most centrally and ir.ost feasible sites throughout Brooklyn and the other borss of the city. The committee appointed fcy Charles 1'artrldge. prnldent of the consists of 3'raake, chairman; Arthur F. Kulr. Joseph 1J.

Neef. Albert F. Houthcorobe. Joseph V. Catharine and ilenry 1 he board issued a atatement yes-terlay saying: "rVhl.e New Terk City haa alwavs besn known aa an enthusiastic boooter cf aviation, it haa lagged behind In the matter of providing airport facilities.

Airplane landings now must be mads at isolated aviation fla'i far out from the city on Long and the New mead owe. "The airplane la row assuming more and more lrr.io:.ince as an essential part of transportation ayntem, and aa tlmp Kites on it la certain to play an Increasingly important role In cur economic and Industrial pragresa. "It la no more reasonable to expect commercial aviation to construct its own landing fields thiin to expect steamship companies to build and maintain harbors and dredge channels and do all the other things that we now do to keep up our commerce In the port of New Tork. "Clearly the provision of airports la a proper publlo function on the part cf ojr municipality. "There Is no doubt as to their need In New York City.

And with the passage of time thla need will become greater at the same time sites more difficult to obtain. Now is the time for the city to prepare for thin Important, growing faajor of our everyday life, and to take thla neces-rnry step and provide airport facilities' worthy of our commanding Position aa the first city In the world. "Varloua aitea for such fields have been suggested, many within the city limits and a few outside. It Is perfectly ridiculous to talk of locating a New York municipal airport outside the city boundaries, when feasible and appropriate sites are to be found within the city that would bring the benefits of thla air transport to th city Itself. "Besides urging upon the municipal authorities the great need of such facilities the Airport Committee of the Brooklyn Real Estate Board will iake a survey of all such available anes within the five boroughs, make study aa to thoaa beat aulted for aviation and th city's needs, and will do all within it power to cooperate with th authorities In making New York an aviation center second to none In this country."

INDUSTRIAL BUILDINO NOT ACTIVE IN 5 YEARS In th last Ave years ther has been no Such over-building of indus trial plsnts as has been character istic of boom periods In the psst. ac cording to V'lrsll Jnrdsn. chief econo mist of the National Industrlsl Conference Board.

Ther has been a tremendous boom In building ccn- structlon but a careful analysis of It does not rveal that there haa been any excess growth In our Industrial plant during that period. It has been very largely residential build Ing. building of publlo works and other types of buildings which have not sered to Increase excessively our Industrial capacity. "Another Important factor that frequently loe eleht of." ssvs Mr. Jordan.

"Is th (act that when se a figure Ilk eight and one. half or nine billion dollars' worth nf building construction did In the year 126. thet dors not by any means represent all new construe- li'n.

I Officials To Spend Summer Months On Rockaway Peninsula BABYLON EXPECTS BIG HOLIDAY CROWD Frederick Shores Prepares Water Carnival in New Pool. Babylon, together with Frederick Shores and the new Babylon Bathing Beach on Oreat South Bay, will be ths "Mecca" ot many thousands of people over ths holiday. Babylon has been brought nearer to the thousands of city dwellers by ths electrification of the Montauk Division of th L. I.

R. R. to th town. The popularity of th Oreat South Bay waterfront has boen vastly augmented by the construction of th new Babylon Bathing Beach, with on thousand bath houses, and on of th largest of all th outdoor swimming pools on th Atlantis Coast. This immense swimming pool, 200 ft.

In length and 80 ft. In width, will be, It 1 expected, th arena for th holiday, where there will be exhibitions and competition In swim ming and high diving by wall known professionals and amateurs. Frederick Shores, at the foot of Little East Neck Road, the gateway to Frederick Shores from the famous Merrick Road (Long Island's Sun rise Trail), lies just south of th beautiful, one-time Foster Estate, that was purchased recently by a syndlcats of financial men for uso as a country club, to be known as tne eampawam Club. Thousands of thos who go to Babylon for ths holiday to swim, to boat and fish, to frolio and (o bask In th sun, will motor or walk down Little East Neck Road to the mile of waterfront comprising th water-frontage of Frederick Shores, wher they will see th Great South Bay at it best. Cnd man H.

Frederick, who Is now developing Frederick Shore, In discussing yesterday th active demand lor and th steady decrease In the supply of actual waterfront prpper- ties witr.in tne commuting gone, on the South Shore of Long Island, said: Property of this character was never In such strong demand as it is today, and It Is only a question ot tim when actual waterfront lots will be In a class with buslnoss properties in 100 percent locations. Ther I much less of actual water-frontage on the South Shore of Long Island this side of the terminus of the electrified Montauk Division of th L. I. R. R.

than peopl might be led to believ from a casual glance at the map of Long Island, with Its lengthy roast lines, but aside from th "quantity" of property remaining, there Is th 'quality' of such property also to considered; and. In addition, th price at which such properties are available. "All along the South Shore, west of Babylon, ther ar costly estates along th waterfront that cannot purchased for gold or precious stones. In these sections also, whir th larg estates hav ben divided Into lota, the price a re frequently so exorbitant that th man of aversts means has not th ghost of a chanc ver to bcom th owner of a single lot, much lea of a plot larg enough to build a horn on. "I consider myself to doubly fortunat In having purchased th Frederick Shoree tract through negotiations that lasted several long and weary years, because In having Liken tmy tim In dealing with the fourteun former owners, I was enacted to buy tne property at a price that would seem absurdly low today.

Now. be cause 1 wae able to buy this property at low prices, i sm able lo sell it st similarly low prices. This gives the bulge on every other Mouth Shore wsterfront developer, and It also give my purchasers a far better chance to make ths profits et ths Many State, city and bore of ficials will spend ths summer months In ths Rockawaya, according to In formation just compiled by ths Chamber ot Commerce of ths Rock- sways.
