Ing up his post as master-general OF
personnel in the air ministry to devote
his time to commercial aviation, in ar
interview with the Daily Express, as
serted that a flight across the Atlantic
probably would be accomplished In May.
He added that the trip was feasible at
the present moment as there were three
or four types OF airplanes available
which are capable of making the flight.
Gen, Brancker said the time was not
far distant when airplanes would be
owned and driven as automobiles are
today. He said It probably would be
necessary to establish an aerial police
force, the duty of which would be to
watch over air routes and frontiers.

miralty is embarking on a big program
Of airship construction, Airships are

to make between 60 and 70 miles an
hour. They will carry crews OF 25 men,
Stil larger airships are being con-
structed and flights with passengers
are predicted for the near future,
Several airships which will equal the

| and which are of n similar rigid type
are being built, Primarily they are
being constructed for sea work and
general observation duty for the navy,
| These airships, It Is said, will be capa-

REBELS FORCED
WAY INTO PALACE

GENEVA, Jan. 14.-Details of the
proclamation of a republic in Luxem-
burg. which have reached here, say
that revolutionists forced an entry to
the palace Of Grand Duchess Marie and
demanded her abdication. The grand
duchess refused on the ground that the
parliament had not made such a re-
quest. She was given "a hours to leave
her capital and was told that she would
be permitted to take only her personal
effects. She consented to go to her
chateau outside of the city. In the
meantime the parliament held a disor-
derby meeting.
Grand Duchess Marie has a minority
following, 1t is said, being mainly cler-
tcals. AS a protest they left the par
lament building in a body. 1t is stated
that feeling against the grand duchess
Is due to the fact that she received for
mer Emperor william, the crown prince
and other German officers and also per-
mitted her sister to become engaged
to Crown Prince Rupprecht OF Bavaria.
1t is said the people desire to be alb
solutely independent of German control.
Reports received here declare that 1t Is
not probable that Grand Duchess Marie
will return at once to the city Of Lux
