French Have New Inven-

MOTIVE POWER
NOT BIG THING
BY wI1FRED FIE1scHER,

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent }
PARIS (By Mail) Gabriel Pou-
lain, the French champion cyclist
who recently carried off the 5000
franc prize for the first flight made
by human effort, believes that his
experiments have proved that there
are other elements to be developed
in the science OF flying than the in
crease OF motive power, towards
which most of the efforts of manu-
facturers have so far been directed.
Il did not aim to fly with the ma
chine / used" Poulain told the
United Press. Il merely wanted to
satisfy myself that L could take or
of my own power. and now that !
have accomplished this. 1 see no
reason why 1 should not be able to
propel myself through the air OF my
own power, since it requires rs per
cent more power to take Off than
to fly. 1 used to pilot a Nieuport
biplane, and while ! could fly with
out losing height with the propeller
turning at 700 revolutions a minute
it required 1900 revolutions to lift
the machine from the ground.
The Aviette,' which I used. was
only an experimental machine. Il
was not equipped to fly. I am now
building a new model which will be
fitted with a propeller and all the
control device OF an aeroplane.
With this hope to make flights OF
from 500 to 400 yards at a height
Of from IS to 90 feet.
Il am now in the experimental
stage. I believe, however. that my
demonstrations will reverse some OF
the theories OF flying which we now
hold. In my opinion, we have given
too much attention TO the develop
ment Of motive force without on
centrating sufficiently on the other
elements that enter into the prob.
