What might be termed an added
attraction has been arranged for the
Importers Automobile Salon which
opens at the Hotel Aston, New York
next Tuesday. This will be the en-
inhibition of cars which finished first,
second and third in the recent Grand
Prize race at Savannah. the great In
eenational automobile classic OF this
year. These cars are the Fiat, driven
by David Bruce Brown. the Benz,
which Eddie Hearne pikoyed to second
place, and the Mercedes In which
Ralph de Palma finished third.

cehtered in the third annual interna.
tlonal aviation salon, which has just
been inaugurated by President Fall
Heres. The huge space of the salon
building, with it's glare of light and
beautiful decoration, setting off the
200 or more aeroplanes, offers an at
tractive and picturesque spectacle.
The exhibition indicates that prog
ress and improvement in aeroplane
construction have been remarkably
rapid as regards both monoplanes and
biplanes, but it is generally believed
that there will be no great changes in
the general appearance of the aero
plane in the near future.
The races of the past year caused
constructors to turn their attention
to securing increased speed. This is
evident by the number of speedy ma
chimes in the exhibition. There is,
however, a strong tendency to build
machines wb III afford a maximum of
safety. 1t is also pointed out that
aeroplane purchasers are insisting
upon more comfort in the aeroplane.
Military contracts now contain a para
graph dealing with comfortable seats.
cases in which to carry tools and
sometimes even the installation of a
wireless telegraph apparatus.
The general lesson of the salon is
that the aeroplane has definitely ar.
rived as military instrument, but
that much is to be done before avia-
ton will be hailed as a popular sport.

PEACE PLAN MAY

Scheme to Give All Delegates
Halt Vote Each Looks Bad

BY JAMES ]. MONTAGUE.

WASHINGTON, May at devel-

Ri committee is preparing to duck the
embarrassing job of pudging between
Taft and Roosevelt at Chicago.
The business Of the committee. which
meets two weeks in advance OF the ma
tional convention. is to decide all cases
Of contesting delegates. This the COM

versy doesn't want to do. Its members
are all practical politicians, and they
know the danger of getting on the OPP

Lately through an exchange Of let
ters half dozen Of the most infiuen-
tial members Of the committee have
been talking about plan to seat all
delegations. both regular" and con-
testing. giving each individual half a
vote
This ingenious scheme would acquit
the committee ~ any charge OF plot
ting to aid one candidate or the other
Incidentally, on the face Of present re-
turns. it would subtract ~ votes from
Mr.. Tafts ss1 and add that number to
Mr.. Roosevelts 243. which would rate
Taft 812 and Roosevelt 322.
Taft Deserted at Dark Hour.
OF the remaining 294 delegates to
be elected Roosevelt probably will get
majority So if the committee finally
determines on this plan. Taft might as
well begin looking for a substitute.
The sympathies Of the majority com
Ynittee are. or were. with Taft But
when expedency enters the door of a
committee room sympathy flies out OF
the window. As was reported before in
these columns. the firm Of Penrose,
Root. Crane 4 Smoot. which has been
presiding over Mr. Taft's destinies, has
decided he ought to get out.
This quartet has a lot Of influence
with the committee. almost as much as
Mr.. Charles Francis Murphy has with
the New York legislature. All save
Root are members or acting members.
And having decided to get somebody
else beside Taft with whom to stop
Roosevelt. they are probably parties to
his scheme.
Dark Horse Talk Is Renewed.

be nominated. they can back him out
and get somebody else.
They are taking long chances on
Roosevelt sliding in, but they would
take a longer chance on political ruin
If they nominated a man who Is beaten
In advance OF his nomination
The president is beginning to realize
that he has been leaning on broken
reeds. and that he must do most OF the
hrhting himself He believes nothing.
He trusts nobody. He credits no re-
ports. The information that he has
been gathering first hand varies widely
from the information that he used 10

Determined not to be forced out, he
