as basis OF their later development,
The Stout monoplane is nothing but
giant wing, with all the machinery,
trussing, ct cetera, In the wing. The
engines are set into the leading edge,
the passengers are inclosed between
the surfaces of the wing skin, and ev-
cry part that Is exposed TO the air Is
designed to lift
The central part of the wing Is
thick and of long chord, the tips thin
and narrow. In fact, the ship follows
more closely the butterfly than the
bird in Its plan view and gives more
surface within smaller dimensions
than has hitherto been thought pos
sible. For this reason and on account
of the peculiar trussing inside. all
formed of many piled veneers, the
plane is much lighter, almost half the
weight, In fact, of previous ships of
the same wing area.
The large ship was first flown Mt
Dayton in the spring of 1918, and this
machine was used for research and
development work toward later mod
els. AT present several commercial
types of ships are being designed or
are on the way, and some enormous
planes intended for military use.
The thick main wing Is not only
framed up entirely of veneer. but the
surface as well Is formed of this ex-
tremely tough and waterproof mate
rial. The veneer on the surface is
three-ply and only one-twentieth of
an inch thick. The wings are strong
enough, however, so that one can walk
all over them as sidewalk. Though
this ship had 4S0 square feet of wing
40 square feet more than our best
army two-seater fighter, it weighed
less than half us much; 1850 pounds
In fact, as against 1920 for the army
machine. 1t was built at the same
time with twice the strength factor.
Each wing Is supported on either
side by nine spars any two of which
are strong enough 10 support the ship
should the others he shot away. The
longest spars. with spread of 20
feet, weighed but seven and half
pounds and. supported In test over n

men can be supported on each wing
of this machine without unduly stress

to take Its place.

hAAtt iAbNNAl a blNNNiNf Shi
ed boat and driven an automobile,
knows enough to pass judgment on
alrplane propositions like these.
Vibration means strain and wear
and tear.
Projections mean resistance to the
air, increased vibration and reduced
speed.
Any part not lifting surface means
decrease in efficiency.
The lighter the airplane the greater
the speed, with the same engine
power.
The greater the speed the greater
the airplane's all-around efficiency
So the average man will give ready
assent to the proposition that mon
oplane like the Stout Batwing. as pic
tured, is a distinct advance on the fa-
mlliar biplane.
The Germans have been making ex-
ceedingly efficient airplanes along
these new lines. Did they get the
idea from America? Well, there has
been II story that certain plans were
stolen during the war. ANYWAY. the
American Stout Batwing was secretly
in process of construction during the
war.
The following Information concern

promises to revolutionize aeronau-
tics"
To William B. Stout, nn American
aeronautical engineer, formerly a
member of the aircraft force in Wash
ington, belongs the honor of produc-
ing an air machine, wholly new in Its
conception, that promises to revolution
ize aeronautics. By fitting coinci-
dence Mr.. Stout was materially assist
ed in developing his remarkable ma
chine by Orville Wright. The new
machine was one of the secrets of the
war. Since perfected 1t is about TO
be flown from Detroit TO New York,
and its coming flight will be the first
public demonstration of the new idea
which seems destined to change the
design and construction of the heavier
than air machines.
With all the recent disclosures of
the giant German monoplanes which
that country has developed largely
since the armistice, 1t is gratifying to
know that the type originated in Amer
lea and was first constructed at Day
ton by William Il. Stout, under whose
supervision the mystery ship was built.
The war department has just re-
leased disclosures of the German de-
velopments of acknowledgement wings

strength inside, so that all the parts

of them with wings four feet thick,

 MURDER OF WIVES
tBy United Press)

Los Angeles, May 3.-"J. B. Wat son-bluebeard of modern times anc confessed slayer of four women, vii eventually reveal himself as the mur. derer of many other women and the arch criminal of the age"
 This was the statement of District Attorney Thomas Lee Woolwine after going over the 13,000-word comics sion of Watson, alias James R. Huirt When this mans story is completed 1t will constitute the most amazing document in criminal annals con- tinued the district attorney. "He has given only a portion of his story and many of the crimes either because of his weakened condition or because he dared not tell the revolting details at this time"
 Watson, a man of many aliases, IS charged thus far with making way with nine women, four of whom he confessed he murdered. What he has done with the other five is a mystery the authorities are seeking to solve.
 A new wife" has been admitted by Watson, but all he knew of her iden- tity was that she was Mrs. Watts. He married her, he said, in Winnipeg. lived with her one day and then gave her money to go to Western Canada. He has never heard of her since, he claims.
 Officers have been unable in their search of Borega Valley to find the body of Nina Lee Deloney, whom Wat son married in San Francisco, killed at Signal Hill, near Long Beach, Cal, and took to the valley near Fl Centro for interment.
 Watson today said he "could find the body in the valley with his eyes shut" Officials are confident they will find the body when they take Watson with them.
