WHY BRITAIN WON
 THE ZONE HOP"
 fsT
By GI W. MORRISON.

Captain Alcock and Lieut. Brown. who were the first men in the world to cross the Atlantic ocean through the air, in ''one hop" by q heavier than air machine, or in any other way in sixteen hours and twelve min utes, do not themselves, perhaps, fully realize the tremendous importance of their daring accomplishment. Not only have they fulfilled the dream of | mankind since the beginning of time but they have proved possible. and opened the way to the greater prog ress and advancement of aeronautics 1 for the benefit of the human race and civilization.
 It is most interesting to note the very positive first remark of Captain Alcock, to the effect that flying boats are the right craft to cross the ocean with and his success proves that fly ing-b boats of the NC type, if equipped i with reliable and dependable magneto 1 ignition, which Captain Alcock favor ed, can also cross the Atlantic in "one hop"
 ] Recent official tests made with the Liberty engine specially fitted with magneto ignition. but otherwise the same as used on the NC type of sea- plane in their trans Atlantic flight, have shown a very decided increase of power. efficiency and economy of /; fuel, and it is possible some flying tests with this form of ignition will be made in the near future.
 Captain Alcock's Vickers- Vimy air
 plane had magneto ignition. and his Rolls Royce engines, which are not
 superior in any other way to the Lib
 erty engine, propelled his machine the
 entire distance without mishap at the
 continuous rate of 120 miles an hour Captain Alcock also said he believed that within the next twelve months flying boats will be travelling between England and America with passen-
 gers, and remarked that he "drovt
 most of the way with his throttle bu
 half open, to nurse his engine anc
 save fuel" The magneto spark en
 abled full power to be obtained iron
 this lean mixture so that he arrived
 with 290 gallons of gasoline still il
 his tank, sufficient to take him all tn, way to London.
 With f1ying-boats such as the NC the trip could have been just as eas lily made in lone hop" in better tim,

than the trip made by way of the

than the trip made by way of the Azores. Also. it is stated, that had NC's l and been magneto-e equipped, they would. by means of the greater and more reliable power, have been enabled to reach Horta or Delgada
 The London Daily Telegraph says of the flight Tt does not eclipse the glory of the American achievement, but that is because there is DO ques- tion of an eclipse in these matters, as there is no question of jealousy"
 Henry Woodhouse, vice president of the Aerial League of America. said, 'Too much cannot be said of the re- liability of the motors used In this flight, which combined with the skill and daring of the aviators and the re- liable instruments for navigation, opened an entirely new epoch in aero nautics and permit planning the use of airplanes for transportation over long distances. where the tremendous speed of airplanes can solve difficult problems of transportation"

For taking part in a hoIdup of a Stamford jeweIer, PasquaIe Nazzons of New York, was sentenced to the Cheshire reformatory by Judge KeeIer in the criminal superior court this. morning. He pleaded guilty to the charge of assault with intent to rob.
 It was alleged that the accused with three others came from New York to Stamford on the day of the crime, which took place last month. Attorney Samuel Reich, counsel for MaZzone, said his client was not the ringleader of the gang and did not take any money from the jewelIer. He claimed the only part Mazzone took in the proceeding was to point a pistoI at the victim. Mazzone is 20 years old now and the court sentenced him to say in the reformatory until he is 25.
