A|RNEN PEEVED AT NAVY
 FLIGHT EFFORTS
TRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

ST. JOHNS, May 6.-The British aviators. Harry Hawker and Captain Frederick P. Raynham, today were in clined to belittle the coming attempt of United States navy seaplanes to cross the Atlantic.
 Hawker declared he will wager that any fast steamer leaving New York on the same day as the "Nancies" of the navy will beat them to England.
 The British airmen here appear skeptical of the ability of the Liberty motors to stand the test of the long flight. Captain Charles W. r. Morgan, Raynham's navigator, signing himself Captain c. W. F. Morgan, R. A. F., r. R. c. S." announced responsibility for and attached his signature to an article printed in the St. Johns Daily Star this afternoon, which asserted that the American nayy's flying boats would prove nothing practically or theoretically.
 The article said in part:
 At no time during their flight will the American planes be out of sight of ship, as the American navy is put ting a ship every fifty miles of the way which means that the machines never will be more than 9 miles from a ship. This eliminates any risk and also does away with any need of navigation. The Americans might just as well fly the English channel fifty times, an ordin- ary exploit these days. The flight proves nothing practically or theoret- lcally. The personal guidance of the pilot does not rule into the question, as the machines can land at any time alongside a ship, rest and proceed. They are also able at any time to re- plenish their petrol tanks" The article adds a reference to the fact that local interest is "a1l for the Americans and says:
 This seems rather unfair, and we | should like to believe it untrue"
 Local interest has turned to the | progress of the United States navy's flight and St. Johns papers are carry ing columns from Trespassey bay, as against paragraphs regarding the pro- l ject of the Britishers here. Weather Defers Start | NEW YORK, May 6.-No attempt will be made tomorrow by the United | States nayy's trans atlantic aviators to start on the first leg of their journey, l because of adverse weather conditions l it was announced tonight by Com mander John H. Towers, flight com ! mander.
 Reports received at the Rockaway i Point station of bad weather along the coast, between here and Trespassey bay, dashed hopes entertained during the day that the planes would start to Halifax in the morning. The first NC plane to start on the trans atlantic flight will carry q Victory loan mes sage from Secretary of the Treasury Glass to President Wilson, it was an nounced today.

The increase in the total during the last A hours was s256.00G.000. of which s14s,000,000 came from the New York district alone This is a better record than has been made for the past few days. but falls far short Of the s622- 0oo,o00 average daily subscriptions. which must be pushed up in the re- mainder of the week, if the loan is to be subscribed fully.

 Experts who have been associated with all loan campaigns are at an ab- solute loss to explain the slowness of subscriptions" said the treasury's re- view tonight "The belief held by many of them at the outset of the loan. that its attractive features, both as 10 inter est and maturity, would cause an early oversubscription. has been rapidly dis sipated, and yet not one seems to be able to assign a cause for this sit uation. Slowness in buying is easily { explained in few isolated localities. where farm work is backward, or there has been shortage of employment in certain industries, but generally speak 1 ing, no one seems to be able to assign definite cause for the failure of the country to keep up the pace that was expected of it."
