Driven by Exhaust Gases


The new propeller is of the variable
pitch variety recently developed. The
pilot OF the machine can increase the
pitch Of the blades as he climbs and
thus attack the thin air with greater
power than with the fixed type of pro-
peller.
The Moss supercharger Is a turbine
air compressor which congresses the
thin mir and delivers it to the car
buretor at the same density as at sea
level In this manner the aIrplane
engine il enabled to deliver full power
at all times during the flight in the
upper atmosphere. The turbine is
driven by the exhaust gases of the
engine itself, and it turns at a speed
Of $4,000 revolutions minute The
Importance Of this, according to the
experts, lies in the fact that at eight
miles above the earth the atmosphere
contains less than SO per cent of the
oxygen that exists at sea level.
For the purpose of the fight to-day
Lieutenant Mac Ready wore specially
des gned clothing that has been de-
veloped as result Of the experiences
gained in previous altitude flights His
flying suit was lined with the fur OBJ
tanned from the coats of Chinese Much

units were placed These were con
nected with the generator of the en-
CINE and supplied heat to the aviat s

Another plan Commander Deegan
has in view is that of forming q laison
between the Legion, the Veterans Of

ish War Veterans and the G. A. r.
Petty differences will be erased if
the new leader of New York State has
his way and all the veteran organiza-
tons will settle down to a campaign
in which their sole objective will be
mutual helpfulness and loyalty to
their flag.
1t is probable that within a few days
this plan will be preached to the other
organizations by Commander Deegan'
and an early conference will result.

His First Conference and
Probability Is Member
ship Will BE Discussed
Deegan Has a Conviction
Metropolitan Department
Enrolment Ought TO Run
Up to the 100000 Mark

State Commander William r. Deegan
will preside this afternoon at the first
important meeting he has called since
his election at jamestown last Satur-
day
The commander has called confer
ence of the metropolitan district COM
mittee Of the Legion for the purpose
Of discussing the policy to be followed
during the coming year by the organ
ization in this territory. This COM
mittee consists of the county chair
men of the five counties of the greater
city and the chairman of the first and
second districts of the state. The first
district includes Manhattan and the
Bronx, while the second district en-
braces Richmond, Kings and Queens.
The meeting will be held at State
Headquarters, Room 500, Hall of
Records.
While no definite program has been
announced, it is believed by legion
nares that the chief topic for discus
sion will be that of mem ership Com
mander Deegan is convinced that if the
Legion works as 1T should and strives
sufficiently to help all veterans, regard
less of the organizations with which
they are affiliated, the enrolment of the
department will reach 100000. At
present it is approximately $4,000, it
is understood.
The question of increasing the
strength of the state body is para
mount with Commander Deegan at
this time. He is most anxious to re-
leve the condition of disabled and i'll
veterans and is convinced that the
most effective method by which to
bring about reforms is to present such
formidable front that the country
will be aroused to action.

Board must stop until after July 1.
All funds for reimbursement of farm
ers for cattle killed have been ex-
hausted. The new appropriation will
not be available until after July
so the farmers will have to wait.
North Dakota has been very pro-
gressive in the movement to eradicate
tubercular infested cattle from dairy
and beef here of the state according
to DR.. w. F. Crewe. state veterinari-
an.
The last legislature only appropri-
ated $4,000 for the work of the de-
partment and officials believe it will
hardly be adequate IL the work is to
be carried on in progressive way.
Herds containing pure bred cattle
in circumscribed areas are tested an
nually for tubercular signs and after
a herd has successfully passed two
successive tests without showing tu-
bercuEn infection, 1t is designated as
federal and state tuberculosis free
accredited herd. North Dakota at
present has 24S accredited herds.
There are 2,514 herds under super
vision, comprising 50,058 cattle. ac-
cording to latest official tabulations
