PLANES BANNED,
GERMANS NOW
USING GLIDERS
Machines With No Propelling
Power Do Some Marvellous
Stunts,

LONDON, Jan. T-Germany IS forbid
cen to fly, so she Is learning to ghde.
The ban on the installation OF engines
In aeroplanes, imposed by the peace
terms, has produced q new type OF loco
motion.
This is the astonishing news brought
home by Mr.. Handley Page, who has
been paying a visit to Garstield on the
Bavarian border.
German aeroplane constructors have
turned their attention to the development
of aircraft with no engine propeIling
power" said Mr.. Handley Page "and
they are producing substantial results.
The gliders are Of various types. One
called the Munich has made the longest
flight Of five miles. II has no engine,
propeller, under carriage, wheels, stlerons
or elevators. 1t possesses simply the
fuselage and movable wings, operated by
the pilot.
Another machine, called the Hanover,
has given the best performance in turn
ing In the air and Is peculiar in that IT
lands on two footballs and has pneu-
matte shock absorbers attached to the
wings. The Aachen type lands on skids
instead Of wheels. Shock absorbers are
fitted, but the landing speed Of the GID
er can be reduced to little more than a
fast walk, and wheels become unneces-
sary.
THE method Of launching machines for
a flight is very interesting. The machine
is placed on suitably selected piece OF
sloping ground. rubber cord Is at
tached to Il rope, which is passed round
the chassis legs Three men strain the
rubber cord, which, when it reaches the
necessary tension, is released, and the
machine is shot away as from cata-
pult."

OFFICERS HOT
ON NEGRO TRAIL
Search Over Three States for
Assassin.

NEW YORK, Jan. 7.-On the trail Of
"Sure Death" Bobby, negro. who killed
two Of their comrades and fed after muir
dering another man, police and detec-
tives spread their net over three States
today in an effort to apprehend the
assassin.
Detective pals of Miller and Buckley,
who met death yesterday from the negro
slayers gun, missed their man by a
scant half hour at hi shome in Mont
claire n. J.
wen get him today" Detective
Hughes declared as the man hunt spread
over Greater New York, New Jersey and
was extended to parts Of Pennsylvania.
Bobby, who was out on parole from
Blackwell's island when he shot down
colored janitor and the two detectives
during a hold-up, in which lie got $500,
was thought to have struck for the col
ored quarter Of Belleville, N. j. In this
section he has established a reputation
which won him his name of Sure Death"
among his acquaintance. Negroes there
fear him and probably would aid his
escape through terror OF the two guns
he always carries and frequently uses.

LEAGUE WILL
SOLVE WORLDS
BIG PROBLEMS
Opinion of British Leader on
Washington Arms Confer
ence.

LONDON, Jan. THAT the Washing
ton conference is a beginning, but be-
ginning which leaves many problems, the
to be solved, is the belief of Viscount
Grey, former minister of foreign af-
fairs and ambassador to Washington.
This statesman, who, more than any
other, was responsible for Britain's en-
try into the war in aid Of Belgium and
France, gives full praise to the work al
Washington, yet believes that greater
world problems than have been touched
there can only be solved through or
with the help Of the League Of Nations.
It is within the range Of possibility
that the results Of the Washington de-
alterations may be administered, on the
British side, by Grey at some future
time.
THE Washington conference Is be-
ginning so good that 1t is bound to
have further consequences" the former
foreign minister declares. "The quad
rupIe agreement between the United
States, Great Britain, France and Japan
is, in my opinion, a momentous and
favorable departure.
Although Jnls agreement TeldlSS ohtS
TO the island possessions Of the Pacific,
1t must have an effect In spirit which
will go far beyond the agreement itself.
REAL DIFFICULTY
IN FAR EAST.
1.-The real difficulty in the Far East
is not, however, the question Of the Is
lands, but of China, and that question
has not been solved at Washington.
Certain general principles have been
agreed TO, but the difficulty is in appli-
cation of those principles to China. II
China were a settled country, managing
its own affairs satisfactorily, keeping its
own house in order. the application of
general principles would be easy enough.
1.-THE Chinese are a great race and
proud race. They dislike the Interior
ence Of the foreigner, but as long as
they cannot put and keep their own
house in order they will be dependent
In one way and another upon oreign as
sistance, and their condition will be such
as to invite foreign interference.
"While China remains in a state Of
chaos countries which have interests in
China may inevitably be drawn into In
reference which may produce great DIFF
hculties among themselves besides being
an injury to China
There is only one line Of safety in

The the company adds the striking,

New traffic plans are announced as
follows:

bourg, New York weekly, Berengaria,
$1,000 tons; Mauretania, $1,000, the
worlds fastest liner, and Aquitania, 49,
600 tons.
Direct service between Britain and
Canada to be resumed. Liverpool,
Tyrrhenta, 1900, carrying first. second
and third-class passengers; Ansonia,
$4,000, carrying first and third-class only :;
Albania, 1900 tons, carrying cabin
passengers only; Southampton, Cher
bourg, Canadian service; Andania and
Antonio, both 1900 tons and carrying
first and third class passengers.
OLD LINE WILL
BE REOPENED.
The Liverpool, Queenstown and Bos-
ton route is to be -reopened by the
Laconia, of 10000 tons, carrying three
classes of passengers. The Samara, Of
the same tonnage, both being sister ships
of the Scythia, which is now in service
will be added to the Liverpool, Queens
town and New York service between
Liverpool and New York.
Cunard's continental service will be
increased by the addition of the Car
onia, Of 10000 tons, to the Hamburg
New York service.
Cross-Atlantic rates have quadrupled
in four years. The down grade has
now been reached. 1t is even possible
that pre-war prices will be quoted If the
shipping was eventuates on the scale
that appears to be indicated.

CLOTURE RULE
CAUSES DELAY
IN CONGRESS
Senators Say No Laws Can Be
Passed When Members
Talk for Weeks.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.-senate lead
ers have begun a movement to break
through one of the oldest traditions OF
that august body-the right to talk 'un-
til the cows come home" The rules
governing c1oture will be amended if
possible, to end the filibustering which
has blocked legislation so effectively IN
the past. The Judiciary committee OF
the Senate has approved an amendment
to the rules limiting debate on any
question whenever a majority Of the Sen
cate desires such limitation.
This effort to abridge the sovereign
prerogative of the legislators in the Up
per House of Congress is certain to meet
with very determined opposition from
members Of both the Democratic and Re
publican parties. The minority groups
will oppose this radical innovation in a
vigorous manner.
MOVEMENT TO END
FTLIBUSTERING.
The movement to limit debate arose
as a result of the complaint of majority
leaders In the Senate that they could
not get laws passed owing to lengthy
speeches Of members opposing the
measures. The Senate is far behind the
House in the matter of actual accomplish
ment as a result of the rule under which
one Senate can relieve another at speech
making, thus dragging out a flibustr
for several weeks.
Just now dozens OF bills passed by
the House are held up in the Senate
because Senators can't find time to wear
out that body in discussion upon them.
Some Of the Administrations pet bills
are included in this number.
Under the present rules 1t takes q two
irdr mi m
whereby debate is limited and q vote
on the question forced. Cloture, how
ever, seldom is applied, for the minority
party rarely will agree to it.
The proposed cloture rule would per
NIT majority vote to apply the cloture
on saaGgion Of twenty -four Senators. To
IN he new rule requires a two-thirds
fifty, and therein Republican leaders
&c great obstacle.
#fgMOG OPPOSE
YCLOTURE RULE,
The Democratic party, ever since the
memorable fiibuster of John Sharp VIII
liams in the House many years ago pre-
vented the South from losing what it con-
sidered the sovereign right Of self gov
eminent under a proposed amendment,
has been irreyecably opposed to the clo-
ture.
Added to this opposition is that of
few Republican Senators like Borah, La
Toilette, Norris and one or two others.
who frequently have occasion to take the
floor against the entire Senate In the in
terests Of the country.
Nevertheless the Republican leaders
are determined to end the present system,
whereby one or two freeIance Senators
can hold up the entire Senate.
