De HaUiIand Plane
Lands Here After
1874 Mile Journey

A big DeHaviland plane, flown by
Major F. L. Martin, commanding Of
ficer Of Chanute field at Rantoul, Ill,
who is making a short visit with his
sister, Mrs. Irwin Jackson, at 116
North Seventeenth street, landed on
the George Thorp farm north of Rich
mond, Saturday
Major Martin was accompanied by
Sergeant Anderson.
Arrangements had been made for
landing in the E. G. Hill field west OF
Richmond, Major Martin telegraphing
to his sister Friday However, the
field proved unsuitable for the large
plane and it landed on the ThorI
farm on the Union pike, north OF
Richmond, at about 9:15. A perfect
landing was made in a large clover
field, and the plane was left under
Mr.. Thorp's care.
The flight from Rantoul was made
in S3 minutes flying time, II minutes
being spent in gassing and oiling a
Fort Benjamin Harrison. The tota
distance is 1914 miles and the 13i
miles to Fort Benjamin Harrison was
made on 81 gallons of gasoline Fol
the De Haviland planes, a large am
heavy machine, the ordinary con5ump
ton is from 20 to 25 gallons al hour
The planes are equipped with tank
holding 50 gallons.
Expects Improvements
An immense improvement IN air
plane design within the near future l:
expected by Maj. Martin, who bases
his belief upon the recent progress il
glider development.
when flyer can take two passen
gers in a glider with no engine, up t.
1900 feet and stay up for three hours,
he said, che would surely be able t.
cover the whole country if he had
motorcycle engine On his plane.
I'VE may expect soon to see a grea
revision in airplanes, with much light
| er machines, less powerful engines
greater lift and carrying capacity
This country is very far behind in de
velopment of aerofoils, or airplane lift
| ing surface designs. However, tn
presence of Fokker, the noted all
plane designer who is working for tn
U. S. Air Service at Dayton now, ma,
/ be expected to put US ahead again. ."

''Pencils of Light"
Used to Broadcast
Wireless Pictures
PALLADIUM NEWS BUREAU

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2-"Pencils
of light" and carrier waves" are the
agencies employed in transmitting
pictures by radio, c. Francis Jenkins,
of Washington, discoverer of the pro-
cess, explains. Mr.. Jenkins has been
a resident of Washington for many
years but he is an Indiana product,
native Of Wayne county, and one of
the foremost American inventors. He
first won fame as the inventor of the
motion picture. His latest discovery
promises to rival his earlier epoch
making invention in Importance
With the device he has perfected
Mr.. Jenkins states, a pencil of light
which travels in a definite direction
is directed over the picture which is
to be transmitted
This pencil of light" he says, "fs
transformed into a carrier wave that
varies with the intensity of the light
and is broadcasted in the same way as
sound waves. The receiving station,
being equipped with apparatus to con-
vert the carrier waves back into light
waves, projects the pencil of light
thus received onto a sensitive photo
graphic plate. Thus the picture is re-
corded.
Need Greater Speed
THE only obstacle which has been
in the way of transmitting moving pic
lures has been the need of greater
speed in the process. And that is
being developed now, will be perfected
before long"
There will be many uses for Mr..
Jenkins radio picture broadcasting
process once it has ben perfected for
commercial use. Then it will be pos
sible for a family to sit in a radio
equipped room and enjoy seeing as
well as hearing an opera; for instance,
being staged many miles away.
Among the other advantages of the
device are the possibility of receiving
news photographs from great dis
tances as quickly as the telegraphic
text; the transmitting of photographs
of criminal suspects when there is an
urgency for immediate identification

for THE NEW YORK HERALD yesterday.
There are two kinds Of buildings con-
tanning hotel suites, in which full hotel
service is given. and kitchenette apart
ments, which. as their name implies,
have culinary facilities. The Kitchen
cite style is the most common one. An
example of the former class of apart

The demand for the smaller apart
meuts is considerable and to degree is
The New York herald. [volume] (New York, N.Y.) 1920-1924, 1922-09-10

For example, we have a continuous
call for small apartments from business
women, school teachers, &c. Two such
women will seek an apartment renting
for. say SIS q month. They will halve
the rent, which means that the room
rent of each is $3.50 apiece. They will
get their breakfasts in the apartment
and have their lunches and usually
their dinners in restaurants. Thus they
have the exclusiveness OF n home and
practically the freedom of one who lives
in a lodging house."
Recognizing the fact that the field for
small apartments Is a fertile one. the
