j. s. PREPARES
FOR LONG FLIGHT
NAVY MEN GETTING PLANES
READY FOR EFFORT TO CROSS
ATLANTIC OCEAN.
FUEL Is THE BIG PROBLEM
Must Garry Enough Gas To Make
Distance of 1900 Miles-Planes
Are Large Enough To Carry
Many Passengers.

Washington. Franklin ID. ROOse-
welt. acting secretary of the navy,
announces that three days notice
will be given before the American
seaplanes start their flight for Eu-
rope 1t was minated by one of the
officials, charged with the overhaul
ing of the three seaplanes that the
date of fight would be advanced be-
cause of the rush work that had
been completed, the construction eX-
perts have been busy for a month ,n-
stalling new gas tanks, cutting out
unnecessary weight, and remodelinS
the seaplanes' boats, the weight OF
which have been reduced 10 a mini
mum.
1t was said that there would be no
omissions Of safeguards because the
flight would be started in squadron
fashion. There will be an escort
from this side, probably from New
England, and torpedo boats at fixed
distances. Only matter of time
separates us from actual accomplish
ment of the feat" said a high naval
official.
We have got to put a few finish
ing touches on the type of machine,
then start. Then it will be all over
but the flying. With favorable wealth
er it cannot fail"
The most serious problem con-
fronting the navy experts is that Of
fuel. II is not doubted that the ons
or more machines , which will be
started can be kept in the air FOR a
sufficient length of time to cover the
distance-1,9 900 miles, between New
foundland and Ireland, if an adequate
supply Of gasoline can be. carried. To
get around this difficulty additional
tank space is now being provided.
The. "N.C1" type with which il
has been decidede to make the trip
originally had a cruising radius of l.
200 miles at a speed of 100 miles an
hour. It's lifting capacity was 10000
lightweight pounds. Fifty-one pas
sengers were taken on a flight over
New York city.
