 London, Aug. 1S.-"The aero plane of the future will be at once the most ghastly and sub lime machine ever created by the hand of man."
 This is the statement of M. Anthony Fokker, the celebrat- ed Dutch aeroplane inventor, who is now in England secur- ing designs and plans which he will use in his work in further ing military and commercial aviation in the United States.
 Aeroplane services crossing the At- iantic five or six times a day, and aeroplanes capable of destroying en- tire cities in a few hours, are the pre- dict1ons which Fokker makes.
 The aeroplane of the future de- bends almost entirely on motor and fuel developenent," F'okker says. If this continues at the same rate. oi progress we shall very shortly have completely noiseless machines racing every twenty minutes regularly as the modern train service in all di- rections.
 ''The actual size and speed of the mously as the numbers employed. Some 12o miles per hour. with a range or several hundreds Of miles will be the standard model for com mercial purposes during the next ten years.
 Passenger machines will not, in the Immediate future. hold more than twenty or thirty passengers. and bombing aeroplanes will be unable to carry much more than 15ooo pounds weight of explosives.
 Freight machines w!a1 of course. De kept as distinct from passenger machlnes are are goods trains and ex- presses de luxe on a railway line.
 Tn 20 years time the Atlantic will be bridged by an air service running five or six times day. In 50 yearT' time I prophecy that the machines will contain all the comforts and dis- fractions of a big ocean liner.

 The war was far too short to de- velop aircraft.
 The next war will see the utter impotence of the battleship. The normal procedure of attack from the air will not be direct. The weaxecr part of battleship is its bottom. That is where 1t will be attacked. Depth charge bombs will be reieased on either side of the doomed ship.

HISTORIC RECORDS

Congressional Globe Pre- scented Speeches of States

 Time.
By H. K REYNOLDS, [. ~. S. Staff Correspondent.)

Washington, Aug. 1SIPermanent records of the debates in the Senate and House in the stirring days before the Civil War-z3,0O0 plates used In have been destroyed at the Govern Hent Printing Office to make way for more recent records.
 Twelve of the plates containing by Henry Clay, Stephen A. Douglas and others have been saved and will be placed on exhibition in the nu- scum of the printing office.
 The Congressional Globe was print ed by individual shops from 1888 to 1S76. It was published first weekly. but later became daily. The con- tract for the work was held by sev- real men and there was constant pickering over the job until the gov ernment began to publish the record.
 Resourceful Stenographers.
 Tn those days a Stenographic report of the proceedings in the two Houses or Congress was not made as at pres ent. but the Congressional reporters wrote down as much as they could in long hand and filled in with what they construed the member to say.
 One of the plates showed some re- marks on the slavery question by Senator Lyman Trumbu1l, of Illinois. He suggested that the negroes be sent 10 another part of the world, where they could establish their own coun-
 
 get along peacefully if the negro was freed from slavery. He predicted the time would come when such a coun- try would be organized.
 William Pitt F'essenden, Secretary of the Treasury in Linco1n's Cabinet, took prominent part in the Panama Canal question in 1856, according to the Globe. which published F'essen- oen,s speech on the question of com naunication between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
 Great Britain must be, prevented from obtaining control of this impor- tant route of communication" Fes- senden said.
 Settlers for New York Proofs of the plates show that in fS5S@ public land for use of t'actual settlers on1y'' could be obtained in New York. The record shows a pe- tition introduced by a New York Senator, praying that the public lands may be- laid off in farms or lots and granted free of cost to actual settlers only"
 One of the plates of the Globe was submitted to the Bureau of Standards to be analysed. It was found to con- tain more than ten different sub stances. Each plate is a quarter of an inch thick. solid and very hard.

the musing OF the Great Philosopher on waste
