The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-12-25

W R. Clark, an inventor, living in Spo- kane, has completed model of a flying
 machine, one-sixth of the normal size,
 containing 952 cubic feet of plane surface,
 with which he will attempt flight early
 next month. He believes he has solved
 the problem of successful aerial naviga-
 ton by creating friction on the element against which he is contending. Four pro-
 pellers are used on the. sides and the rear of the machine with two top wheels, giving the same action as the gryascope.
 The speed of the side propellers is 1000 revolutions a minute. while the gyrascope wheels are geared to 2O00 revolutions a
 minute. There is also a. dome to hold the air under pressure and give the ship the steadiness maintained by a descending parachute. The completed machine will be A feet from tip to tip and e2 feet from pilot to rudder, the motive power be- ing two 40-horsepower gasoline engines.
 What the United States needs most of all just now is to give business 0 rest cure.' Let up on this agitation, and do more work and less talking in trying to solve the great economic questions. The rest cure is the thing"
 James J. Hill, chairman of the board Railway company, who is in the north west with Howard Elliott, president of the Northern Pacific Railway con1- pany, and Darius Miller, first vice pres ident of the Burlington system, sug- gested the foregoing remedy after diagnosing the country's ailments. MT. Hill came to Spokane for conference with Jay P. Graves, president of tic Spokane and Inland Empire Electric Railway system, in which he recently acquired a controlling interest He added:
 "The people, not capital make the country advance, but capital must De employed to keep the people at some occupation. When workers curtail the profit of capital then the country will face a serious condition. I do not say this will happen, but I do say that we must work to ward off even the proba-
 blity of facing a situation of this kind.
 The way to do this is to keep the peo- pie employed. Give them occupation, and the northwest can help nightly
 to do it at the present time. We need more foodstuffs.
 "The country is still prosperous, but this is no time to make a comparison
 as to the brightness of the outlook. l don't know what to think of certain conditions, and for that reason I would not say that America will face happy holiday season or that it won't, talk ing the financial status of the states as a basis"
 MT Hill announced officially that the Hill lines will traverse the Des Chutes country, where the Hartman system is now active.
 Spokane, Wash, December 24.- I Glare in tn e-Sun, a member of the | Spokane tribe, whose forebears hunted | and fshed and smoked, as they were l inclined, while their faithful sQuaws prepared the food, tanned the skins of ! big game and did other menial tasks without word of complaint, created no little sensation among the old- timers in Spokane when he appeared fin Riverside avenue carrying a papoose with an ease and indifference seem ingly born of practice. His squaw, gowned in a bright dress and shawl, walked by his side, apparently uncon- scious of any irregularity, and, judg- ing from it's smile, the fat. copper -hued youngster shared the satisfaction of his parents. Randall H. Kemp, news paper man and mining prospector of 30 years experience in the Pacific north west, says this is the first time that a similar sight has been witnessed in Spokane.
