New York.-"A transatlantic aero.

c1al purposes. The largest aeroplane
at present has carrying capacity Of
fifteen tons, but plans are ready for an
aeroplane capable Of lifting thirty tons.
American aeroplanes, and motors are
so efficient that a fight of over thou
sand miles day is possible.
There are $4,000 aeroplanes in use
In the world, and the reason why there
are not more is that they cannot be
supplied fast enough to replace those
that are put out of action or worn out.
"Great Britain is spending $25O,OOO.-
600 in military aeronautics this year.
Five hundred thousand people are pro-
ducing and operating air craft and aero
nautic supplies. The American aero
nautic industry has orders and pending
contracts amounting to $5O,OOO,OOO.

Der of ayiators ranges between 1000
and 10000. The United States army
and navy have together about a hun
dred. The European countries have
thousands of observation balloons and
hundreds of dirjgibles. The United
States army and navy together have
only four observation balloons ordered
and one small dirigible."

Selective Matrimonial Con-
scription Plan Explained by
DIR. Van Casteel.

NEW YORK. tune 5.-Are you a
candidate for the League for Selec-
tive Matrimonial Consumption?
The league does not exist yet, ex-
cept in the minds of DR.. Gerald Van
Castel and one or two other persons
who think CONSUMPTION too good an
and incomes; but DR.. Van Casteel
said yesterday there was no reason
why it should not xIst if enough
persons wanted it,
1t started as a JOKE between DR..
Van Casteel and Miss Dorothy d.
Frooks, who thinks 1t a shame that
soldiers should be kept from getting
married by the uncertainty of in
comes in wartime. Now DR.. Van
ICasteel finds it applies to a favorite
idea of his-that every woman
should have a nance to look over
and size up" a few thousand men
before she picks one as a husband.
The idea of matrimonial conscrip-
ton found such favor among DR..
Van Casteel's friends that a dozen or
so called him up yesterday to ex-
press approval, after they had seen
mention of his idea.
Il don't approve Of the prize pach-
age idea of marriage said DR.. Van
Casteel. we are registering the
availability of men ror war and OF
incomes for taxation. and don't
see why we shouldn't register the
qualifications of men for marriage.
we could mark them, say 80 per
cent. for health, 20 per cent for the
ability to keep on doing a thing
they started out to 10, and perhaps
S per cent for good rocks. and so on.
Then when come cnap asked a girl
to marry him she could ooh him up
in the matrimonial Dun and Brad
street.
In a short time tine ream of our
young men will be in France, in
khaki, and the only ones left here
for the girls TO marry will be the
weaklings. 1t isn't fair to the girls
They ought to get a chance at a live
man. And the men would fight bet
ter if they knew there was some one
at home they were fighting for.
We ought to have more chances
in our cities for men and women TO
each other over before the OPP
p%ortunity to say. I marry this man

NEW YORK. June 5.-Dr. ID. De
Waltoffg, newly elected vice presi
dent OF the American Medico-Phar-
maceutical League, made the as
founding declaration last night at
the annual meeting and banquet of
the league in the Hotel Aston, that
he and his son had discovered an
explosive so powerful that a five
grain tablet would wreck the Wool
worth building.
After the physician had finished
reading a scientific paper on infan-
tile paralysis he asked the attention
Of the fifty delegates. He told them
he hoped they would interest the
thousands of league members in dis
covering offensive and defensive
weapons to be used IN war, as Ger
man scientists are doing.
You may make a discovery by
accident, as lie my son Mortimer
and myself. We were experimenting
to find a cheap substitute for gaso-
line and were using a compound in
a wedgewood mortar three feet
across the bowl.

DR.. De Waltoff said his son is a
chemist and not a chemical engineer,
several of whom are aiding in ex-
periments to create a means for
handling the explosive, which he has
named "Terrorall."
