needed to be near the top of his game
this afternoon, as the French and Eng

For the third day the weather was
sunny and cool, but the surface was
soft because of a heavy downpour FRI
day night. This was expected to handi-
cap the bulky Australian, but it bothered
the Frenchman far more. Patterson
did not employ the cautious tactics that
were fatal against La Coste. but he hit
the ball without the carefree abandon
that has marked many OF his American
contests.

 TO Cost S2OO. 900

Four additional floors will De con structed on the Lincoln Life building, First avenue and Nineteenth street, making 1t twelve stores in, height, ac- cording to announcement, Wednesday, of J. F. Stallings. president of the Lin coln Reserve Life Insurance company.
 Each of the stories win contain from 90 to 36 offices, 1t was stated, the sn- latgement to cost over $200s s000 in its entirety. Plans are now in the hands of Miller and Martin, architects. and with completion. the construction pro gram win begin.
 In discussing the addition Mr. Stall ings said it was not so much for ex- pansiOn of the company although some space will be added to the present of fees on the seventh floor, but rather to provide quarters for other firms The building is occupied to capacity with scores on the waiting list, he said.
 Addition to the building will at least change the aspect of one of the city g landmarks. It was constructed 15 years ago as a Chamber of Cemnaerce building under the promotion of Rufus Rhodes, who, it is said, raised the funds one evening after dinner. Later it was taken over by Paul E. Chali- foux and sold to the present owner, the Lincoln Life, in 1917.

 GLOWING PICTURE

WASHINGTON, May 14.--Dis- position of Muscle Shoals would be fought out on the Senate floor un- der a movement which gained mo- snentum today proposing to report all of the bids without recomnaenda- tion to the Senate.
 This procedure has the support of advocates of Henry Ford bid. and t is understood 1t will not be op- posed by other members of the Sem ste agricultural committees, which is now considering the proposals.
 Wants Whole Question
 Senator Heflin, democrat, Alabama, q member of the committee, called on Chairman Norris fin q speech in the Senate today to submit the whole ques- ton for decision by the Senate. He joined with others in eayfng he would oppose adjournment of Congress until the Muscle Shoils issue was decided.
 Debate on Muscle Shoals broke out in the Senate today when Chairman Norris, replying t0 Senator Robinson, democrat, leader, who criticised the Senate for not having n quorum, said be could not attend the Senate without Aelaying the Muscle Shoals heRringa, slliels lIe stsiSl | S8s one lz tlas most iIsle fioftant issues to De decided by Con Gfess.
 Senators Shields and Nick ellar, demo. rfats,. Tennessee. and Senator Heflin reqnested that the hearings cease and opportunity De given for vote, Snas tor Reed, democrat, Missouri, fllllowed with an attack on Ford; declaring he was a shrewd business man and his bid should be regarded only as busi- nesB proposition, as Ford is not such an archnngel of purity as some people think he is. He declared he favored tho government completing No. 2, hold ing itland wholesaling the power.
 During debate Senator Heflin charged the power companies with making a combined effort to prevent Ford ob- taining Muscle Shoals. Chairman Nor ris retorted there had not been lone scintilla of evidence" before the com miftee of such combined effort and since Senator Heflin was member of the committee it was his duty to bring the evidence to it's attention.
 Chairman Norris said most of the committee members favored his bill for government operation of Muscle Shoals and development of the Transportation facilities of the Tennessee river. He said Muscle Shoals would not be aban- doned, but Dam No. 2 wanid be com pleted one year after next July and Dam No. 5 from three to five years hence.

 From the time planes lose contact with the land until they sight Para mushiru Island there will be nothing to guide them over the weary waste of tumbling sea unless they go far out of their way to the north to sight the Komandorski Island, Russian soviet pos sessions. It is all but impossible for a flyer to know his position by taking sights on the sun as the sailor does and therefore he must navigate entirely by dead reckoning.
 Only General Reckoning
 Before taking off the force and veloc- ity of prevailing winds as given by wire less through meteorological reports of the coast guard cutter Haidas will be estmiated as best they max, but these reckOnings must be very general as this is one of the most uncertain areas on the face of the globe. Most of the storms that sweep the Pacific originate in the Boring sea and strait.
 Relying upon their compasses, which are none too accurate because of many disturbing influences, the flyers will set a course for their objective, allow ing for the speed of their plane, the twist given it by the propeller, known as ''tOrque," and the speed and direc- tion of the wind.
 Extremely good time may be made if the wind is favorable, that is directly on the tail of the planes, but in such a variable location this is something that cannot be counted upon and the flyer must be careful to watch for changes in the direction of the air currents, which

tCsuxright. 1884. in United States, Canada and Great Britain by North American NaWsgapsR Allianae and The Age-HeFaId) RT LIEUT.. ALEXANDER WILLIAMS,
 JR.. A. s. o. R. c.
 NEW YORK, May 14.--An epoch in flight history will be marked when the three army flyers who are cir eumnavigasing the globe, take off from Chicogaoff in the Attu Islands and be- gin the S60-mile flight to Kashiwabara Bay, on Paramushiru Island, one of the Eurile group. Not only will the three survivors of the gallant expedition cross the Pacific ocean for the first time, but they will also have to break the exist ing record for a nonstop dydrOplane flighA- which is 792 miles.
 The feat is a far more daring one than that of the NC-4 which crossed the At Iantic as the Douglas world cruisers are not seaplanes. They are land machines equipped with pOnt0ons and should any ability be unable to ride for any length of time in the rough seaway.
 Perehed High
 Whereas airplanes of the N CA type are seapianes built for that purpose and designed to ride the waves and having housing for the flyers that will protect them from the winds. the Doug las cruisers with their land undercar- riage removed are perched high in the ain above their all too small pOntoOns et the mercy of wind and waves.
 These pOntoons are little more than sea sledges. slsids designed only for land ing in comparatively smooth water and the planes were equipped with them only because it was impossible to provide aIiaanMks landing fnldn @t all of tha
