The new Edison storage battery
street car at Concord, the first in the
South, which has been in operation
there for more than a week, is at
tracing no little attention. A full
er description of this car appears on
the front page OF this paper. All day
last Saturday and Sunday the car
did a tremendous business. more
than $500 passengers being hauled
in those two days alone. So far it
seems to have proved a success in
every particular and is adding very
greatly to the number of shoppers
who frequent the business district.
The shop keepers, as well as all the
people of the city, are highly pleased
with the new car service. 1t might
be well for Henderson to watch the
new system with a view to establish
ing similar one here.

and desperate fight they put up
against great odds for more than an
hour. Once or twice it looked as If

factory, and IA less skillful and de-
termined fight directed against the
sea of fame that ragged in the big

At least two thousand people looked
on with dread for what many men OF

Advent of the Squalls.

The advent Of the squalls Is generally
marked by a gentle southwest wind. veer-

quently heavy thunder. All these phe-
nomena occur suddenly and practically
simultaneously, so that the passing of the
squall is easily and definitely observed.
The French scientist suggests that tele-
graphic warnings be Immediately dis
patched to centers lying eastward in the
subsequent path of the disturbance. He
says the scheme was practically demon
strated some time ago, when stations west
OF Paris sent messages announcing
squalls. which subsequently passed over
the city at the predicted time.
At the great aeronautical congress in
Frankfort, in 1909. the plan was tried by
Mr. Lincke, director of the meteorological
station. Then fifty observers within a
radius of $50 miles were asked to notify
the director of any squalls which passed
over their separate stations. Save in one
or two cases, all the storms which visited
Frankfort during this period were known
to the director more than an hour in adj
vance.
NJ. Durand-GreeviIle says that the ex-
penses of such warnings would be negli-
gihle compared with the prizes awar0e ed
aviators. not TO mention the cost of ma
chimes, etc. and the lamentable loss OF
life, which might, at least, to some ex-
forecasts and warnings issued by various
national meteorological offices are far too

special service might be instituted as a
trial by some of the societies especially

HOLES IN AIR" THEORY
REFUTED BY SCIENTISTS
French Savant Says Sudden
Gusts May Be Cause of
Aviation Accidents.

In the last edition of the Astronomical
Bulletin of France M. Durand- Greeville, a
learned French meteorologist, refutes the
latest suggested theory OF holes in the
air." to which has been attributed the
formidable list of fatalities which has
marked the progress of aviation.
The French savant says in his opinion
sudden gusts or squalls at critical mo-
ments may be the real factors causing
the trouble and proposes system of
warnings of gales and sudden gusts of
wind which would inform the airman of
the approach of grave risks should he
attempt an ascent until the squall has
passed.
In a memoir entitled THE Gales and
the Storms" which appeared in the An
nails of the Meteorological Bureau of
France some years ago, NJ Durand-Gree-
vile suggested that the isochronic lines
or uniformity in time marking the COM
mencement of storms correspondent with
much longer isochrones of squalls. He
says there is more or less sinuous band
extending from near the center to the
circumference of a depression. This band
he says, Is often from G25 to 80 miles
long, and in it's interior the wind is very
strong and often accompanied by precipi-
tatiOD.

Discrimination of No Avail.

AS going to show that the condition of
American shipping would not be improved
by a subsidy. Mr.. Shively said that while
under the law Of 1891 the United States
has been paying 165 per cent more for
carrying the mails in American than for
eign vessels, the discrimination had been
Of no avail.
For the fiscal year ended June 30,
$780, he said, 1.-The proportion of our for
eign commerce carried in American bot
toms was So 3-5 per cent. For the fiscal
year ended June 30. 1910, this proportion
had fallen to s ITO per cent. Whatever
occasional slight reaction appears, the
general course has been persistently and
swiftly downward. Nor is there persua-
sive evidence that those disbursements
from the federal treasury over and above
the open market price have been retard-
ed the decline. The evidence Is far more
convincing that this persistent reliance
ON a false remedy. based on a false
diagnosis. to the exclusion Of the true one
has FASTENED the disease"

Retained Old Code.

Finding especial fault with the denial of
American registry to foreign-built ships,
though owned by American citizens. Mr..
Shively said that in 1S49 Great Britain
had repealed the code that we had cop
led, whereas we retained 1t. with the re-
suit that the American merchant marine
was destroyed.
England he said, recognized the in
terest OF her merchant marine as para
mount, reinforced it with tools from the
shipyards of the United States, saved
her merchant marine. and with it her
shipbuilding industry. He made the ship
building interest paramount. sacrificed
our merchant marine to it, and our ship
building for the ocean trade disappeared
with it,"
Referring again to the ancient origin of
the code, he said that the United States
alone of all nations retains 1t.

.SH|vELY OPPOSES BILL
FOR OCEAN MAIL BOUNTY
Says Subsidy Plan Would MOI
Restore Supremacy of
American Shipping.

Opposing the ocean mail bounty bill.
Senator Shively OF Indiana took the posi-
ton in the Senate today that the SUI
premacy OF American shipping was inca
pable OF restoration by subsidy or boun-
ty.> He advanced the opinion that the
only means OF accomplishing that end
was through repeal of the shipping laws,
the abolition of 1.-The medieval ordinances
known as our navigation CODE
1t was asserted that a vast majority of
these laws had been imported bodily from
the British code. Explaining the adoption
of these laws a hundred years ago, the
Indiana senator said:
New England was pursuing navigation
and desired legislation that should en-
able her to engross the deep-sea and
coastwise trade Of the young republic.
Besides she had long been and then was
profitably employed in importing mo-
lasses from the West Indies. distilling it
into rum. trading the rum for darkies on
the coast of Africa and selling them as
slaves in southern ports. The situation
in the convention became ripe for negO-
tiation. compromise and bargain. Mo-
iasses. rum, shipbuilding, the slave trade
and slavery coalesced, and the finished
products of the coalition were the eX-
tension of the slave trade for twenty
years, and the wide open door for the flu
ture navigation code.
