PUBLIC HEALTH
 WORK OCCUPYING RED CROSS TIME

Milwaukee, Wis. June 25.-Pubhc
 health work, in the aid and coordin-
 ation of existing public health agen-
 cies, is the major peace time activity
 of the American Red Cross, George R.
 Besiinger, of New York, director,
 Health Service Department, Ameri-
 can Red Cross. told the delegates to
 the National Conference of Social
 work here today.
 'sThe program of the Red Cross
 Health Service consists mainly of a
 broad statesmanlike plan of Public
 Health Education and 1nformahon'
 under which the Red Crosseis per
 forming certain joint services for the
 Public Health Agencies of the city of New York, which it would be diff
 ficult for any one agency to do so added.
 Among those common services, of fered without charge by the Health Service of the Red Cross is a Bureau of Public Health Information
 through which any interested person
 can secure up-to-date information in
 regard to all phases of Public Health
 activity.
 ing Public Health agencies is not only the aim, but also the achieve ment of the New Y ork Country Chap ter of the American Redo Cross since it entered the field of Public Health eighteen months ago.
 "One of our cooperative enterprises is a, Health Speakers Bureau, design ed to tact as clearing house | through which all public health ag- encies can find opportunities for their lecturers to speak, and through which | local groups of any kind desiring to ! arrange public health lectures, can secure qualified lecturers, or a. series | of lectures, if desired. ''The entire health program of the New York Country Chapter. American | Red Cross is one of cooperation; no | health activities are undertaken alone:
 no Health Service is provided without | securing the cooperation of some | other health agencies. To supple | ment and not supplant the public and private health activities of the
 city is the motto of this new Red Cross Service"

WILL ATTEMPT
 NONSTOP FLIGHT

Los Angeles. Cal, June 25.-Plans to attempt a nonstop airpIane flight from the Pacific to the Atlantic coast in the near future have been an nounced by David R. Davis, a veal thy young Californian sportsman, and Eric Springer. veteran pilot of Flu rope and America. The flight. if successful, not only would prove epoch making as the first of it's kind, but probably would bring to Ameri- ca. and to an American machine, two marks now held by foreign flyers.
 In completing the coast to coast flight, distance by air Aine of ap- proxinately 2,500 miles, the flyers would break the nonstop distance record of 1,940 miles, made by AL cock and Brown in crossing the At lanfic shortly after the war. Indi cations are that a successful trip also would establish a new record for continuous flying, the present mark being 24 hours. 19 minutes, seconds, held in France. The third of the most coveted achievements of flyers-the record for straightaway speed-probably would not be affect ed in coast to coast flight.
 The plane in which the attempt will be made iS-an especially con structed machine in which every mo- dern mechanical appliance tending to insure the success of the trip will be installed. Every detail of it will be of American design and manufac- ture. Designed by Donald w Doug las it has been christened the Cloud ster-" It will not be particularly large, the wing spread being 56 feet, the length 35 feet and the height IS feet. Many war planes were larger
 The tanks will carry $50 gallons of gasoline for the 400 horse power liberty engine An instrument of special construction will enable the pilot to tell whether the plane is fly ing level, even though he is in a fog which makes the earth invisible.
 Other instruments will register the gasoline consumption per hour, the oil consumption. the direction and speed of the wind, the air speed and ground speed of the machine and all other data useful to an aviator in at tempting such record breaking flight.
 The plane has been completed for nearly two months. Its speed has been found to be close to 11O miles an hour as a maximum.
 Present plans are to start the flight in July.
