IONDON-.-GivinR credit TO the
Wright brothers (Wllbur and Or
ville) as being the pioneers OF flight
and entirely disproving the asser-
tions for a similar honor urged on
beralf of Langley was tho purport |
OF lecture by Griffith Brewer. the |
well known aeronautical expert, mt |
a recent meeting OF the British |
Aeronauticai society.
From the evidence I have gath |
cred" said Mr.. Brewer. IL sub |
init the following two facts are en- |
tirely proven;
(a) The Langley machine was
not capable OF sustained free |
flight.
(bJ II was not successfully |
flown at Hommandsport New York, |
on June . 1914.
The Smithsonian institution has |
Rlways attributed the failure OF the !
Langley machine to the failure In
the launching apparatus, ana II has
hitherto been generally accepted thar
the machine was wrecked without
having had fair opportunity to
prove whether 1t was capable OF
flight.
1T n therefore easy to understand
that since the Wrlghts who had
been working on the same problem,
succeeded whore Langley failed,
lanRley's friends eagerly welcomed
the suggestion made 10 years later
that Il might be possible to prove
that Langley's machine was capable
of flight.
Langley Test First.
Langley and the Wrights had
been working concurrenuy hundreds
OF miles apart ana both had apr
preached the final stage OF their in
dependent experiments at the same
time.
Langley tested his machine a
few weeks before the Wrights. Bu;
his attempt to fly failed. The
Wrights one week after the failure
tried their machine and succeeded
Was it, then, one asks, merely a
mishap which robbed Langley of the
honor OF being the first to fly. OF
did he fall because the machine he
had built was not capable OF flight
"Mr. Brewer averred that the re-
port and inscription OF the Langley
machine now IN tho United Statos
national museum which says that II
was flown at Hammondsport on
June 2, 1914, is misleading and un-
true. The machine was only put
through so-callod flying tests and al
tered after each test. The Smith
sonian institution was led 10 believe
and falsely proclaim that Langley
had succeeded where. in fact, Lang
ley had honorably failed.
II have evidence to prove" went
on Mr. Brewer, that an undesirable
piece of fiction had been imposed
on the Smithsonian institution and
on an unsuspecting public.
The machine used at Hammonds-
port differed in many important re-
spects from tho original Langley
machine. The wings were OF differ
ont area. different Gambler and diff
terent aspect ratio The system or
wing trussing, which In the Langley
machine had failed was completely
changed at HammOndsport
The large keel surface OF the
Langley machine was altogether
omitted. The original Langley pro-
pellers were superseded by mod
ern propeller based on knowledge
not possessed by Langley A system
OF lateral control unknown to Lang
ley was added,
vi do not criticize IAngley's work
except TO disprova the wild asser
tions made by pretended friends in
order TO build up for their own ends

be enduring; a credit which Langley

are some of the provisions which will
be incorporated into the annual re-
port of the committee, to be submit
ted to the full board.
The condition of the motor cars in
the police department, especially
those used by detectives in hurried
runs through the city. was character
lied as Extremely dangerous" by w.
Pearce Raynor. commander of the
motor corps of the Home Defense
League. These cars" said Mr.. Ray
nor. have run anywhere from 15O.-
600 to 100000 miles and are a menace
to the men riding in them.
In the discussion of the police force,
Charles Roberts. member of the
committee, said that in his opinion
soEle of the policemen paid too much
attention to the minor infractions of
the law. and that in these cases they
were unnecessarily disagreeable in
talking to the defendant. In this
respect. said Mr.. Roberts. the police
of Washington compare unfavorably
with those of other cities.

Inspector Harrison took sides with
the department, and said that mas
much as there were at present 300
men who had been on the force less
than year, it was easy to under
stand that they were not yet fin
ished policemen.
Commissioners Keller, Rudolph and
Oyster were guests of the commit

OF PUSHCART MEN
Board of Trade Committee
Suggests "Keep Moving"
Order Should Be Modified.

Believing that the cart venderS
business is in every way lawful, and
inasmuch as it is licensed the same
as any other legitimate business, the
public order committee of the Wash
ington Board of Trade at luncheon
meeting held yesterday in the Ar
lington Hotel adopted a resolution
urging that the Xenders be regulated
only to the extent as to harmonize
with the general welfare of the COM
munity.
appointed by Chairman Odell S. Smith
asserted that the committee had thor
oughly investigated the matter and
believed that the vendors were help
full to the community and did not in
any way interfere with businesses
and stores.
The report pointed out that if the
policy of keep moving was ad-
hered to by the police department in
regard to venderS it would mean a
large number of heavy, slow-moving
vehicles constantly impeding traffic.
For this reason the same rules ap-
plicable to automobile parking were
urged by the committee for street
vendors.
