he would be Acceptable to both the

November defeated the administration

senatorial toga Lewis had won SIX

AV|ATORS RACE

Small Machine Hopes to Take

to Allow Big Plane to Fly.

ST. JOHNS. y. F.. April 12.-Maj
c. W. =. Morgan, the British avia-
tor-who arrived here on board the
steamer Sachem from Liverpool was
today speeding plans for a flight
across the Atlantic in the Martin
syde plane which he brought over
with him. Morgan hopes to make his
start before the larger Sopwith
plane with which Harry Hawker
planes to make the fight can again
take air.
Mai. Morgan's theory is that his
smaller plane with its narrower
wing spread will not require the
same calm weather conditions nee
essary for Hawker.
Weather interiors.
Hawker was all prepared TO make
the flight yesterday afternoon but
was prevented by a stiff northwest
wind and light snow showers. The
ground about the Sopwith hangar
from which Hawker will start his
flight was drying fast today, but an
overcast sky is believed to forecast
light rain, keeping the big Sopwith
machine on the ground until early
next week.
Morgan has already leased a field
near st. Johns and expects to be
ready TO start before Hawker is
ready for another flight.

be put up in an hour and thus Nor

of building a wooden hangar as
Hawker was.
Few details are known regarding
the Martinsyde machine. The wings
are 26 feet over all. and have a Al
foot span. 1t is considerably smaller
