The proportion of the whole Coyula-

Whether or not the feminist move

OF using silk on n modern biplane
would not increase the expense by
more than 500 per machine, while it
ls estimated that it would reduce the
weight by about twenty pounds. Such
saving in weight, OF course, is highly
important.
In the opinion of experts there are
certain objections to using silk for
aeroplane wings. 1t is pointed out
that while 1t is superior to linen, which
Is now used, In regard to strength, 1t
does not stand exposure to sun and

not lend Itself so well to dressing with
tautening liquids, which is essential in

doctored the complaints of Harold u.

Upon Hallett the outcome Of the pro-
tected trip largely depends. The mo-
tors must be kept running. 1t is up to
him to do it. If the motors stop the
machine will come down. When 1t
comes down-.t Is unsafe to prophesy
whether 1t ever will rise again from
the wave tossed surface of the Atlantic.
A flying boat OF the size of the Amer
lea needs comparatively smooth water
to fly from. 1t is impracdcable to
skim along In the trough Of the waves
and rise. That was proved by the
navy ayiators at Vera Cruz.

carry him oil over the throbbing ma.

wires, guarding the planes. In rain
