WARNEDOFTRAP
AT GREENFIELD
Motorists to Be Aided in
Avoiding Violation Of City's
Traffic Laws.

With a view of aleviatiEg a so-ca11ed
constable nuisance" at Greenfield,
Thomas E. Garviil, attorney for the
Hoosier Motor CLUB, has arranged vita
the city officials there to install a NUM-
Der Of warning signs SO that motorists
passing through may avoid falling into
certain traffic traps which have been
yielding rich harvest to the constabIes
and justices Of the peace.
A member of the Hoosier Motor Club
was unwittingly a victim of a trap at
the Greenfield interurban station few
days ago, it is stated, and was compelled
to pay stiff fine on the technical charge
of passing a standing street car willis
it was unloading passengers. Because
the motor club seeks to protect its mem.
bers from unjust arrest and prosecution,
the attorney visited Mayor Ora Meyers
at Greenfield and secured the coopera-
ton of the city officials in an effort to
warn automobile drivers who are
strangers to Greenfield.
NJ. E. Noblet, secretary Of the motor
club, announces that speed trap" signs
will be posted at each end of Main street.
At the Traction station warning signs
will advise motorists of the traffic rub
ing and serve to keep them out Of tha.
safety zone. White lines have been
painted across the street at this station
and the signs viii, it is believed, save
motorists in the future from falling into
the hands of the consta bles
1t is stated the intelurban cars dis
charge passengers on both sides at this
station and motorists unfamiliar with
conditions are apt to get into a safety
zone without knowing it or intending
to do so. The busy constable is said TO
camp at the interurban station waiting
for just such things to happen and .

mate altitude for birds. At $4,000
feet man experiences extreme diff
Guilty in breathing, owing to the
rarity Of the atmosphere.
Perhaps portion Of Major
Schroeder's own account that has
not been printed before will best IL
lustrate the use Of altitude fiyinr
and the difficulties that are encouu-
tered in reaching the edge Of the
carth's atmosphere. Following his
record-breaking fight, when he be-
came unconscious at $4,000 feet, and
fell like plumrnet for 10000 feet
before he regained consciousness
and control Of his machine, he said:
II am not actually engaged in alti-
tude flying for the sake of breaking
records. AS a matter of fact, as test
pilot at McCook Field, it is my duty
to fly high and explore the attitudes
for scientific data regarding the
trade winds that scientists have long
believed existed miles above the
earth.
New-York tribune., 1921-04-03
A Parachute Mishap

Perhaps the most thrilling and
hair-raising experience in altitude
flying was experienced by two army
sergeants at Dayton on June 90 last
year. On that date Sergeant Ralph
Bottreil was taken up in a lie Pere
fighter, the same type of machine
as used by Major Schroeder, to
establish worlds record for para
chute descent. The machine was
piloted by Sergeant Strong B.
MADAM.
Bottreil was in the rear cockpit
with two regulation parachutes
strapped to his shoulders. 1t had
been arranged that MADAM would
signal him when he thought they
had reached sufficient height to
make the record. The LIE Pere
climbed steadily for an hour, and
at 10000 feet MADAM gave the
signal.
Bottreil climbed up out of his
cockpit and stood momentarily on
the top of the fuselage, fumbling
with the release strap Of his para
chute. In some way or other he
did not have a proper balance, and
the air blast from the propeller
caught him and literally blew him
away. AS ne fell his body struck
the tail Of the machine and broke
off the rudder, which fell to the
earth. The blow ripped Bottreirs
flying suit at his shoulder, severely
Iaeerated his arm, and fractured
one of the bones; it also tore a
hole in his parachute.
In this condition he was thrust
into space 10000 feet above sns
ground.
New-York tribune., 1921-04-03
Aid to Schroeder

The turbo- booster Is a turbine
pump that revolves at terrific speed.
1t is operated by the exhaust gases
from the engine itself, and owing to
its excessive speed it congresses the
thin air and feeds it to the carbu-
rotor at practically the same density
as at sea level. Such an instrument
was used by Major r. W. Schroeder
at Dayton, Ohio, on February q,
1920, when he established the worlds
altitude record under the most dra-
matte circumstances. This record,
since officially verified and corrected
by the Bureau of Standards, is
placed at $4,000 feet.
This record of Major Schroeder's,
like all other altitude attempts, was
accomplished under extreme hard
ship. The most noteworthy attempt
ever made was that of James
Glaisher, the celebrated English
aeronaut, and Henry Tracey Cox
well, his companion, on September S,
1862. On that date Glaisher ascend
ed from Wolverhampton, England,
in free balloon, and rose so rapidly
that Coxwell was quickly rendered
unconscious from lack Of air. The
record governing this balloon ascent
is not very accurate owing To the
hardships experienced by Glaisher,
who retained just sufficient con-
sciousness to pull the rip-cord Of the
balloon before he succumbed to the
combined effect of bitter cold and
lack of oxygen. 1t is believed, how
ever, that the balloon reached an
altitude of 5000 feet.
How difficult it is to fly at high
attitudes is clearly demonstrated by
nature. The largest bird in exist
ence at the present time is the South
American condor, which has wing
spread of about nine feet. This bird
nests in the Andes at attitudes Of
$4,000 feet, and on one occasion was
observed by Humboldt to be flying
over Chimborazo at an altitude Of
5000 feet. That is about the ulti-

Speed of Winds

II succeeded in locating one series
Of trade winds at height Of 10000
feet. These winds blow always
from west to east at that height.
They attain great rates of speed,
ranging from 100 to 800 miles an
hour. At the peak of my climb,
where l hung with slight upward
progress for fifteen minutes, found
the winds blowing toward the east
at the rate of 23o miles an hour.
! had started thirty miles west of
Dayton. My machine had a speed of
120 miles an hour, and as I steered
westward I was literally travelling
backward twenty miles an hour.
"The temperature at the peak of
the climb was so degrees below zero
Fahrenheit. The center section of
my machine was coated an inch thick
with ice. The exhaust from the
motor sprayed fumes of carbon
monoxide gas over me, and it was

along with the oxygen out of my
oxygen tank. I had set out with
three hours supply Of oxygen.
II have not been able to figure
just exactly what the roof of the
world really is. l think it possible
to go much higher, and possibly
higher than $4,000 feet, which scien-
lists believe is the ultimate ceiling
of the world. Ceiling is an express
sive term used in aeronautics to
designate the highest altitude any
particular airplane can reach.)
During my visit to the altitude
of $4,000 feet I could see the earth
plainly. In fact, l could look on
Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and West
Virginia-all from the same spot.
Dayton down there, six miles below,
looked exactly the size of news

cause I could recognize the race

five miles above Cham
paign, H.. and staked his life upon
the proper functioning of a frail and
aimsy piece of silk merely to estab-
lsh a worlds record for parachute
descent, he raised again within the
nuhlic mind two vital questions:
What is the advantage of high
aying?'
How high can man really fy?"
Each time an effort is made by
some intrepid airman to rise a few
hundred feet higher than any one
else has ever been, these questions
are always asked--but how often are
they answered?
There is scientific answer to
them which is quite important, but it
is in the practical solution that the
history of the future lies, and to the
nation which successfully solves
them Will be given the supremacy Of
the air.
At the present time the answers
lie in the realm of speculation, but
accumulated data would indicate
that $4,000 feet is about the ultimate
altitude at which man will ever fly.
This sounds rash, indeed, when we
consider that the mightiest effort of
man has so far carried him to only
$4,000 feet, and even then he has
only been able to remain there but
a few moments.
New-York tribune., 1921-04-03
Advantage of Safety

The second advantage of altitude
nylng is one of safety. The aver
age alrplane has a gliding angle of
elgh' to one. Consequently a ma

leet approximately seven miles)
would be able to glide fifty-six miles

al that elevation the pilot would
nave below him a clear sweep of
territory covered by circle one
hundred and seventy miles in cir
eufh1erence wherein to choose suit
aole landing field. In other words,
attitude IS to the aviator in trouble
exactly what sea room is to the
mariner in a storm.
Such are the general advantages
VI nigh attitudes in flying. The diff
ucultles that must be overcome in
slng such attitudes will have a
pfo1ound and lasting influence upon
-uture aircraft construction.

New Engine Sought

In addition to this, there is
steadily growing conviction that the
internal combustion engine is not
fitted for aircraft work, and scien-
lists are looking around for some
other form of engine that will be
moro reliable, and will not need air
as part of it's fuel.
From the military point of view,
high altitude flying is of paramount
Importance. A recent official bul-
letin issued by the United States
Army air service had this to say:
Future wars, should there be
any, will be fought in the air to "A
great extent. Anti-aircraft guns
Will have reached a greater degree
OF efficiency and development than
in the World War.
"The military value of the super
charger (turbo- -booster) will be very
great. 1t will considerably increase
the speed of airplanes at high alti-
tudes, and enable them to travel
much more rapidly as far as COM
parative ground speed is concerned.
For the commercial aeronauti-
cal world the use of the supercharg-
er will be advantageous in enabling
the heavy passenger airpiane TO
climb over the highest mountains or
above thunderstorns with the use ot
comparatively low-powered engines.

Similar Feats, Not for Spec
tacular Effect Only

miles above the earth this sea of
air has temperature of 60 degrees
below zero. We know. too, that
above six miles the temperature by
some strange law of nature rises
slightly, but how high this paradox
cal change continues we have still
to learn. 1t has been surmised that
above the blanket of the earth's at
mosphere space stands constant at
the absolute zero.
In addition to this we also know
that as we go higher the density of
this sea Of air becomes less and less.
thus adding to the difficulties that
must be overcome before man can
explore its unknown regions.
0t is the very attenuation of the
atmosphere at high attitudes that
offers the greatest difficulty to me-
chanical flight, for two important
reasons. In the first place, the pro-
peller of the airplane has less grip
on the air, and the thin air prevents
proper carburetion in the engine.
with the consequent loss of power.
New-York tribune., 1921-04-03

Fortunately for him, the rent
in his parachute was near the vent
at the top and did not seriously af
feet its proper functioning. Rapid
ly and dizzily he fell, while the pain
from his wounded arm numbed him
through. For $4,000 feet he fell in
a semi-stupor. Then the denser air
reacted upon him and brought him
back to full consciousness.
At 1900 feet he debated in his
mind the advisability of releasing
the second parachute which was
strapped on his back, but by care
fully measuring the rate of his de
scent with objects on the ground he
found that the torn parachute was
operating successfully. He finally
landed safely.
In the meantime, however, MADAM
was having troubles of his own. He
was 10000 feet above the earth in
an airplane without a rudder!
He had looked around as BottreiI
was caught in the propeller blast
and had observed his comrade
blown through the tail of his ma
chine. He had seen the tail torn
bodily off and then fall away from
the machine. For a few ro;,u+os h.
circled around watching his comrade
dangling at the end of the parachute
until he was convinced that it was
operating all right.
