FLYING SHIPS, NOT
BOATS, PREDICTED
Navy Experts Believe Larger
Craft Will Result From
Trans-Sea Flight.

Flying ships will be the logical de-
| velopment of Navy seaplanes. instead
of flying boats. Navy flying experts
believe, as a result of the first air
trip across the Atlantic. First i'm
pressions of the lessons taught them
by that trip had taken definite shape
in the minds of the men who con-
ceived and created the NC machines
before Lieut.. Commander A. c. Read
had settled the NC-4 to a safe anchor
age in Plymouth harbor.
Failures Taught the Lessons.
Periodically. it was not the les
sons taught by the success of the
NC-4 that has caused flying men to
make this prediction, but the expert
ence of the NC-1 and the NC-3. the
one lost Off the Azores. and the other
battered into uselessness. that the
inventive genius of the department
has turned for inspiration. Experts
have apparently reached definite pre-
liminary conclusions to guide them
in future seaplane design. They are
convinced that the plane must be
come an independent unit; that
weather and that it must be able to
lift itself into the air or plane down
to a safe landing, even when heavy
seas are running. Also, to fulfill it's
function as scout, the air vessel
of the future must be able to COM
municate at all times by radio. When
the NC-3 was forced down west of
the Azores she became dumb. Her
value as a scouting unit was lost
from that moment. Whatever infor-
nation her commander might have
learned could not have been trans
mitted

DAYLIGHT-SAVING REPEAL
ADOPTED IN COMMITTEE

The repeal of the daylight-saving
law is proposed in an amendment
to the agricultural appropriation
bill unanimously adopted by the
Senate committee on agriculture
while considering the appropria-
ton.
The bill may not be reported for
several days. The amendment pro-
posing the repeal of the daylight
saving law will be subject to a
point of order, and it is expected
that 1t will be strongly resisted.
The Senate committee amend
ment would repeal the daylight
saving law at the next change of
time. which is the last Sunday in
October.

chapter.
Although the legionnaires are a
part of the British military forces OPP
Grating in Asia Mnoir. there are many
Americans among them. The legion
constituted the first Jewish battle
unit that has fought as such since
Biblical times. The American Red
Mogen David was organized more
than a year ago, when recruiting for
the Jewish legion was started, and
provided comforts for thousands Of
soldiers prior to their departure. Be-
cause of lack Of funds it has not yet
been able to extend its work over
seas.
With money to be raised within the
next few days the organization will
open canteens for the troops in Pal
estine and provide means of recrea-
ton similar to those in the American
Army of occupation in Germany. Re-
lief also will be given the families Of
legionnaires requiring it.

Say Larger Craft Are Needed.

The answer to the questions in
volved lies in larger craft. experts
believe: veritable flying ships. They
are looking into the future and see
ing fotillas of seaplanes. relying
wholly on their own power for trans
air and operating from swift mother
ships" as submarines and destroyers
now operate. Sheplane evolution will
come, type by type and year by year.
each advance being based on results
obtained with preceding types. This
is the program laid down by the Navy
Department as the basis for a re-
quest sent to Congress by Secretary
Daniels for $45.000,000 for Navy avia-
ton development in the next fiscal
year. Part Of this appropriation, if
granted. will 60 into lighter-than-air
machine development.
AS to the sea-keeping qualities of
the NC planes, the experience of the
NC-1 and the NC-3 indicate that some
way must be found to get the plane
surfaces higher out of the water to
save them from the sea.

CAR TO LIVE IN LEGEND
World May Look for All Sorts Of
Tales Concerning Autocrat Of
All the Russias.

The car Of Russia Is lost In legend.
Unless he shall again appear definite
ly in the flesh, so that his identity may
be positively established before all the
world, the question Of his fate will be
always disputed. He will take his
place in the list with the lost dauphin
Of France, who Is supposed to have
lived a quiet life in America after be-
ing spirited away, and with John
Ord" brother Of Franz Josef, who
renowned his title and sailed away in
a vessel reported lost with all hands,
but who is supposed to be living in
cognito on an obscure, palm-shaded Is
land, far from the reach Of the tur-
MOL that marked the last days Of the
Hapsburg court.
AS result Of the conflicting stories
now being circulated regarding the
car, the public mind Is already divid-
ed as to whether a bolshevik bullet
really ended his life or whether the
Count Tatlchev, the emperor's person

votion to duty, died in his masters
stead. Only the clearing up Of the
mystery can prevent the reports years

Concerning Patents.

The length of time 1t takes to obtain
. patent depends partly on the naturd
Of the application, that is, the thing
to be patented. and partly on the skill
with which the case is presented.
There are forty distinct divisions IND
the patent office, each division having
iu charge a specific class or variety OF
work. Each application is examined
In the order Of filing and some of the
divisions are considerably behind In
