the invention OF a "lOcater fare" for
the use OF aeronauts when lost or IN

be attached TO the top plane Of the
craft at each end. There are con-

without serious accident, but lost as
was the case OF the aviator IOSt sew

three airmen in Canada just rec ntly
in the spherical balloon, the men

locality should any searching machine

OF accident at sea they could give
their location day or night
at night the searching craft would
occasionally set off flares "a signal
to those in distress that a search
was being made. All marine vessels
should have their lifeboats and RATS
equipped with flares In case Of wreck.
that searching craft could set off
flares for refugees"
