A young American army private
came out of a gilded Broadway florists
the other afternoon carrying very
large and expensive bouquet tied up
in waxed paper and walked toward one
of those stunty baby doll roadsters at
the curb.
AS he was crossing the sidewalk
along came another American army
private, undeniably of Italian descent
and known along Broadway for his
ability to WELD the polishing rag at a
Herald square shoe shining parlor. The
two stopped to exchange greetings.
'Lo, Fish Facei'
"'LO. Wop! Where you goin'?'
"TO see me brudderl'
Jump in and save carfare." Where
upon this strangely assorted pair,
brothers by the greatest tie man can
devise, travelled away together New

PORT FOR INLAND NATIONS
Project That Has Aroused Much In
terest in Commercial Circles in
Switzerland and France.

A project to provide an independent
Atlantic port for Switzerland, b.
hemia and other inland European ma
lions in order to render them eco
nomically independent of Germany af-
ter the war is receiving attention in
France and Switzerland, according to
q report to the department of COM
merce from Consul General Ravndal
at Nantes, France.
This project, the consul states, has
aroused much interest at Nantes,
whose municipal authorities are con-
ferring with commercial interests in
Switzerland with view to combined
action. The business men of Lyons
also are said to be watching the move
ment with deep interest, although they
have not yet joined it. The general
idea seems to be to construct suitable
rail connections between the inland
production centerS and one OF the
Loire ports-Nantes, ST. Nazaire, La
Rochelle or Bordeaux. 1t is also
thought possible the project may be
forwarded by the construction OF
cenals linking up the Rhine and RhOne
rivers with the navigable lake system
Of Switzerland.
Existing railroads are available to
form the backbone of such construc-
ton. Port facilities already have been
developed at several of the ports be-
cause of war demands and railroad
yards and warehouses ample for the
beginners of such a project are avail
able at Nantes and ST Nazaire.
1t is thought that after, the war
American passenger and freight traffic
with central Europe as well as with
France will tend toward the Loire
ports in preference to the more distant
channel and North sea ports. which,
owing to their location and meteoro-
logical conditions, Increase the cost Of
navigation and insurance.

FLYING UPSIDE
DOWN THRILLS

planned, when you are $4,000 or 1900
feet up, you will run into a great pile
Of fieecy clouds that turn the whole
world into fairyland. 1t lies be-
fore you, great ball Of downy, spark
ling mist. 1t looks almost real enough
for you to step right out Of your ma
chine and walk around. Some Of these
cloud banks stretch for miles, like
great white world. There ore noun
tains, chasms, rivers, lakes and can
yons running all through them.
Zoom Over tho Top.
"Just as you come to the great
cloud you suddenly pull back the old
JOY stick and zoom down the other
size, perhaps into lake-that is, II
looks like q lake. Then you come to
succession Of hills or mountains and
you go zooming up and then down
like big roller coaster.
"Then you will run into a great
break in the clouds Just like can
yon. The white, fleecy banks rise to-
the right and left Of you for hundreds
Of feet, with the pure blue sky over
you and more white, glisteninn
clouds under you. For mile after mile
you will follow around in these high
walls, Just as clearly defined as the
walls Of the Grand canyon. Some
times you travel straight away for
miles; then you will come to sharp
angular turn and shoot around II in
vertical turn. 1t is all like a dream
and no artist ever painted more al
Turing fantasy In white and blue.
Sometimes the canyon will close in
front Of you and you dive straight into
the clouds or you may be going
around. Often you will follow around
until you lose oil sense Of direction or
balance. You think you will dive down
toward earth and see where you are.
You push over the Joy stick, but the
kold bus does not answer-5ust keeps
on going and becoming more cranky
every moment. Then you know you
are flying upside down or perhaps with
your body almost horizontal There Is
just one thing to do-let go of the,
Joy stick and the old bus will tumble
out of the clouds. You may come out
finding your head straight down to-
ward the earth, or horizontal with 1t.
Then II Is IN easy matter to flatten
out and travel on. N.
Travelling Upside Down. "
"You do not realize you are upside
down because you are FIST In the ma
chine and the motor is roaring tre-
mendously and pulling hard right UNI
der you. There is no danger when fall
Ing out of the cIouds-after your first
tumble. II is the first that always
r1akes man wonder what has hap
pened to his machine, but as soon rs
he is out In the clear he realizes what
hns occurred and ne never forgets IL
with the result trat he 10 prepared
for the situation nguin Mt any time.
"All danger in this situation has
been practically eliminated now, for

stronger every day. and they seem to
