THREE NILES A MINUTE,
BRITISH AERO SPEED
Dozens Gross Channel Daily; %
Miles in Eight Minutes.

With the British Armies in France,
Oct. 3.-Britain's newest aeroplanes are
setting up wonderful records for the
crossing of the English Channel. Fresh
from their tests, these machines have
crossed the Channel at its narrowest
point, where the distance from coast to
coast is twenty-five miles, in eight
minutes. At its widest points the new
planes negotiate the distance in from
fifteen to twenty minutes. The fastest
steamers require an hour and quarter.
So many machines are being en-
ployed by the British on the Somme
front and so great is the wastage that
the supply has constantly to be aug
mented. Dozens of the great white
birds take the air together almost daily
and head for France at three miles a
