[verse]
obviously, research regarding technological unemployment
is as vital today as further refinement or production
of labor~saving and comfort~giving devices
among all the marvels of modern invention
that with which i am most concerned
is, of course, air transportation
flying is perhaps the most dramatic
of recent scientific attainment
in the brief span of thirty~odd years
the world has seen an inventor’s dream
first materialized by the wright brothers at kitty hawk
become an everyday actuality
perhaps i’m prejudiced
but to me it seems that no other phase of modern progress
contrives to maintain such a brimming measure
of romance and beauty coupled with utility as does aviation
within itself, this industry embraces
many of those scientific accomplishments
which yesterday seemed fantastic impossibilities
the pilot, winging his way above the earth
at two hundred miles an hour
talks by radio telephone to ground stations
or to other planes in the air
in thick weather he is guided by radio beams
and receives detailed reports of conditions ahead
gleaned through special instruments
and new methods of meteorological calculations
he sits behind engines, the reliability of which
measured by yardsticks of the past
is all but unbelievable
i, myself, still fly a wasp motor
which has carried me over the north atlantic
part of the pacific
to and from mexico city
and many times across this continent
aviation, this young modern giant
exemplifies the possible relationship of women
and the creations of science
although women as yet
have not taken full advantage of its use and benefits
air travel is as available to them as to men
