Griffith Brewer Presents Evidence Before British Aeronautical Society To Show That Langley's First Trials Failed Where Those of Wrights Sue ceeded.

London, Nov. 11.-Giving credit to the brothers Wright (wilbur and Or ville) as being the pioneers of flight and entirely disproving the assertions of Langley was the purport of a lec- ture given by Griffith Brewer, the well known aeronautical expert, at a recent meeting of the British Aero nautical Society.
 Prom the evidence I have gaths ered.'' said MT. Brewer, "I submit the following two facts are entirely proven:
 (a) The Langley machine was not capable of sustained free flight.
 (b) It was not, successfully flown at Hammondsport, New York. on June ?, 1914.
 ''The Smithsonian Institution has always attributed the failure of the Langley machine to the failure in the launching apparatus and it has hitherto been generally accepted that the machine was wrecked without having had a fair opportunity to prove whether it was capable to flight.
 Tt is therefore easy to understand that since the Wrights, who had been working on the same problem, sue ceeded where Langley failed. Lang ley's friends eagerly welcomed the it might be possible to prove that Langley's machine was capable of flight.
 Langley Test First
 I-odISlGy anu NtI1e I1SILlS IdO been working coneurrently hundreds of miles apart and both had ap- preached the final stage of their in dependent experiments at the same time.
 Langley tested his machine a few weeks before the Wrights But his attempt to fly failed. The Wrights one week after the failure tried their machine and succeeded Was it. then, one asks, merely a n1ishap which rob bed Langley of the honor of being the first to fly, or did he fail because the machine he had built was not ca pablo of flight ?''
 MT. Brewer averred that the re- port and inscription of the Langley machine now in the United States Ma ticnal Museum which says that it was flown at Hammondsport on June 2, 1914, is misleading and untrue. The machine was only put through So- called flying tests and altered after each test The Smithsonian Institu- tion was led to believe and falsely

lion dollars, and it will take only three
months. He has cut the strings of his
purse, turned it upside down and is
pouring a million dollars into a film
version of "The Three Musketeers."
Edward Knoblock has adapted the story
from Alexandra Dumas's novel. Fred
Niblo, who directed "The Mark of
Zerro," is also directing "The Three
Musketeers"
"The pay roll is three times as heavy
fol- this picture as it has been on any
previous Fairbanks film." says John
Fairbanks, Doug's brother and business
manager. "Our aim has been to get
the best talent available. regardless of
cost"
More women are appearing with
Doug in important roles in 1.-THE Three
Musketeers" than have ever before been
seen with him in photo play. Mar
guerite de la Motto, Mary MacLaren
and Barbara La Harr are in the cast.
All told there are 116 persons in the
cast, not counting the extras, and the
weekly pay roll for THE Three Mus
keteers' is $4,000. This picture is al
most completed. Fairbanks will next

Mabel BALM, who does such SPLEEN
did work in the part Of The Girl in that
unusual photo-drama, "The Journeys
End" playing at the Capitol Theater
beginning to-day, was born in Phila-
delphia and, like Hugo BALM, her
artist director husband, determined to
WELD the brush and pencil. She
studied illustrating at the School of
Industrial Art and later interior
decorating. Then an opportunity pre-
scented itself to appear on the stage in
years acting engaged her whole atten-
ton. Under the management of
Charles Dillingham; she was in various
comedies. The Vitagraph made a
tempting screen offer and in her first
screen play she appeared with Edward
Earle, who played the lead with her
just couple of months ago in Hugo
Ballin's "East Lynne"
In the years following her screen
debut she played in the support of all
the Goldwyn stars. Maurice Tourneur
chose her for the leading feminine
role in "The White Feather" Sessue
Hayakawa selected her to play opposite
him in "The lllustrious Prince" in
which her delicate beauty made an in
slant appeal. The Universal then cast
her in several pictures, among them
Under Crimson Skies" and hac
offered her stellar role when Hugo
Ballin decided to start his own com
pGny, and Mabel far preferred to worl
with him than to star in other ane
larger companies.
Her first work in the BALM produc
tons was the part of the blind girl il
Pagan Love-" Her next part was the
heroine in east Lynne" which defn
itely placed Mrs. Balm in the from
rank of emotional actresses of thu
screen.
