= EFFORT TO FIX
NATIONAL TIME

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. Is
As was predicted several days ago,
President Wilson has vetoed the
special bill providing for the re-
peal of the daylight saving law.
which was enacted over a year ago

The President returned the bill
to Congress with a note in which
he stated that he had vetoed the
bill with the utmost reluctance, as
he realized the serious inconven-
fence caused to farmers by the day
light saving plan.
He said, however, that the coun-
try stands greatly in need of maxi
mum production by industries which
are materially aided by the law now
in force.

Folding Wings for
Airplane Offered
u. S. Government
Invented by New York Man
and Are Now Being Tried
by British; Will Add to
Navy's Strength in War

An invention that may reyolutjon;ze
naval flying craft has been placed be-
fore the government by the inventor,
Joh1 Arthur Weis, of 45 West Seventy
fourth Street. The invention involves
the construction of contractible wings
on all types OF aircraft With it ma
chine will be enabled to fold it's wings
when not IN flight, as does the bird
The invention has been taken up oy
the British government, and the in
ventor yesterday received letter stat
ing that the first seaplane to be equip
ped with this system was being con-
structed at the Falcon works of the
Brush Electric Company at Loughbor-
ough, Leices tershire.
Nv tn airplanes equipped with con-
tractible wings" said Mr. Weis yes
terday, "a battleship viii be able to
carry nifty or more machines. as against
three or four at present. This would
have a tremendous effect on naval en-
gagements in the future.
For transatlantic flying it will elm
mate the accidents which overlook the
United States Nays seaplanes N-C1
and N-C3 al the Azores. The wings of
eitSe tNO ScdDlGIeS were UPSlTONeQ DIV
the heavy seas they encountered. AS
soon as a seaplane with contractible
wings alights upon the sea the pilot can
iold the wings and save them from the
bufetirg of the waves. He can then
wait until he gets calmer water before
opening them out for flying again"
The invention does not change the
fundamental construction of the air
plane wings. Folding is obtained by
constructing the wings in three or four
sections that close up exactly in the
used on desk telephones.
In order to avoid injury to the fabric
covering the ribs the sections are ar
ranged to split completely apart. and
then fit closely together when the wing
IS fully extended. a novel locking de-
vice holds the wing rigid when it is
extended.
The ailerons which help to control
the machine In flight also collapse. but
are so arranged that they fit smoothly
when the wing is fully extended.
The wings are controlled by a small
winch IN the pilots seat By turning
q handle the pilot can fold the wings
close up TO the fuselage in few sec
onds, When folded the wings fit close
to the fuselage and the machine is
then not more than four feet wide
By the automatic locking device the
wings apparently are completely rigid.
and they have the same external ap-
pearanee as the wings of the ordinary
machine.
