of the lifting power. The inventor
believes that a 25 degree tilt may pos
sibly be attained with safety, but he
has never gone that far in any Of his
experiments, in the course of which
he has made short fights over rough
ground. u
Such success as he has met with
has encouraged him greatly, but he
is by no means ready TO go. after the

mig has as yet been made in this de-
partment of aviation. he says.
War Stopped Experiments.
From the day Of the first heavier
than-air machine the helicopter has
been one of the visions of both the
men who fly and those who design
and build the ships. They have
wanted kind Of aircraft. that would
not require an immense field to take
off or for a landing-one that could
be used from battleship or passen-
ger vessel, or from the roof OF an Of
flee building. Accordingly n deal of
experimenting in this direction was
going on almost from the beginning
of aviation.
However, when the European war
opened and the value of the air plane
as a weapon of Offense and defense
was apparent, all experiments were
abandoned save those that had TO do
with planes. Inventive genius and
energy were concentrated on perfect
ing that type of aircraft, with the re-
suit that more progress was made in
few months than ordinarily would
have been noted in many years. The
war necessity did wonders for the air.

correspondingly. 1t was regarded as
highly desirable, especially for bomb
ing operations and for observation
purposes, as n machine that could re-
main stationary in the air for an in
definite period has Obvious advan-
tages for such work. 1t would COM
bine the immobility Of an observation
balloon with the mobility of a plane,
and at the same time it would not pre-
sent such an easy mark for anti-air-
craft guns.
But it was recognized that the diff
ficulties in the way of developing such
machine were immeasmably greater
than those cncounted in the per-
fecting of the airplane and the war
emergency was so great that the hell
coptcr idea was laid aside. 1t was
found. also, that bombs could be
