CURTEA DE ARGES, Rumania,
July 25.-The most solemn and great
est ceremony Rumania ever witnessed
was the funeral procession for King
Ferdinand from the mortuary cham
Der of the royal palace of CotrOCeni
through the streets of Bucharest to
the station, where the body, with five
court trains, was rushed across Coun-
try to it's grave in Curtea de Argos.
The writer has seen many process
sions and been present at many Off
cial ceremonies, but he must say that
for beauty, easy organization, So
lemnity, pomp and popular behavior
none surpassed this. The ceremony
was largely military.
Honor to War Leader.
It was not so much as general
ruler of this country, which allows
large powers to it's SovereiEns. as to
the dead leader in the war whereby
Rumania became large and powerful,
that Ferdinands body was drawn by
six black horses on six-inch gun car
riage. whose long khaki muZzle pro-
jected from under the gorgeous blue,
yellow and red Rumanian flag which
covered the bier
you didn't know we had such a
fine army" said a Rumanian woma n
who shared the balcony on which the
writer stood. And it was true. These
thousands of soldiers and national
police marching and guarding the pro.
cession were OF really admirable
physique.
1t was hardly daylight when the
first of the crowd began to gather
along the sidewalks, to wait until
1890 O'Clock when the cortege was
due to dehle.
Police co-dons soon were drawn and
the spectators were barred behind
rows of green and brown police, with
tossing white horse tails on their
shining Roman helmets. Balconies.
windows, roofs, lamp-posts along
Caleau Vittoria became knots of
human expectation. Flags dropped
from thousand windowsills and fiut-
tered above every house. the black
mourning merely completing the
superb harmony of color.

Then finally the procession began
to arrive. First came two mounted

ment / found that one paragraph had
been completely demolished by the
parts thrown from the engine and
that the other one had been so badly
shaken up on the return journey that
its record was probably worthless.
! Probably the most amusing incident
in this whole unfortunate perform
ance was due to the fact that my en-
CINE disintegrated somewhere over
! Hoover Field. which is being used for
commercial aviation activities, and is
about two miles from the Naval Air
| Station. Parts thrown from my en-.
| CINE landed on and around this field

went through the office. At least
succeeded in combining my activities
to regularly established aviation
grounds. where the attitude toward
such matters is more sympathetic
than it might have been elsewhere.
The engine and plane used on this
| fight were both the same that were
| used in making the world altitude

was put up to 1895 feet The only
change made since that time was

changed from the seaplane type to
the land-plane type. l attribute the
safe return of the plane to the ex-
cellence of the material used.
In spite of the most severe con-
dltiors imaginable, the only damage
done was that which may be
attributed directly to the initial
cause of failure. From all the indi-
cations which were left, this appears
to have been a stoppage in the
supply of lubricating oil or perhaps
to an exhaustion of the lubricating
oil from some leak. The fact that
the airplane used was strictly

the maximum of strength made it
possible for the plane to withstand
the terrific vibrations to which it
was subjected.
L am confident that had I been
using some specially built ship. de-
signed and constructed solely for the
purpose of attaining the maximum
possible altitude. the light construc-
ton which that service dictates
would not have been able to hold to.
gether. and that such an airplane
would have disintegrated in the air
when the trouble first occurred. The
vibrations in the engine were due to
the fact that with the pistons and
connecting rods missing, the counter
balance weights unbalanced the whole
rotating mass. 1t is remarkable that,
with this condition, the remaining
parts of the engine were not torn to
pieces and cast adrift.
While today's flight has mot added
any conclusive data to the estimated
performance of the material involved,
it has been valuable in furnishing
much information which could not
have been obtained In any other way,
1t compliments the information OBJ
tanned on many previous flights and
iustifies the belief that the material
under under test is pre-eminently sat
isfactory. This material has passed
the experimental stage and in the
light of today's performances may be
considered as fully proved for any
naval use.

DECISION EXPECTED
ON 0NE-MAN CARS
Utilities Commission to Re.
open Question at Meeting
on Thursday.

The Public Utilities Commission
probably will decide its policy with
respect to the operation of one-man
street cars in the District at it's meet
ing Thursday. it was announced today
by John w. Childress, chairman.
Whether to indorse the opposition
Of the old commission toward the one
man cars or to adopt n more liberal
policy is a question that the utilities
commissioners have had under serious
consideration for at least three
months. In that time the commission
has studied volIminous data concern
ing oneman car operations in other
cities and also has taken a poll of
civic and other organizations in the
District to ascertain their attitude.
Few Replies TO Queries.
Questionnaires We're sent to Sc
organizations and only about one.third
Of them replied. OF those which an
swered 20 registered opposition to any
increase in the number of one-man
cars now operated. while 8 voted in
favor of a more extensive operation
or this type of car.
The one-man car question was re-
opened by petition submitted to the
commission by the Anacostia Citizens
Association. requesting that the old
type one.man cars on the Anacostia
line of the Washington Railway and
Electric be replaced by those Of the
most modern type, like those now run
ming on Wisconsin avenue
Withhold Endorsement.
The association pointed out, how
ever, that its petition should not he
considered as an Endorsement of the
one-man car. but that if car of that
type was to be "afflicted' on it's com.
munitY it wanted the best.
If the commission adopts a more
liberal policy toward the one-man
car-and it probably will, in view of
the threat of the street car companies
to appeal for a higher fare unless they
are allowed to operate more extern.
sively cars Of that type~-the Anacos.
tia Association is expected to have its
request granted.

ing turn. Two minutes after he was
off the ground he was out OF sight.
but the noise of the engine, plus the
whine and drone of the supercharger
told the handful of spectators on the
ground that he was pushing skyward
at more than 1000 feet minute.
Carl +. Schory, secretary of the
contest committee of the National
Aeronautic Association, was the Off
cial observer of the test. He carried
the paragraph to the Bureau of Stand
ards, where comparison of the lines
drawn on the smoked paper by the
needle was made with similar pie ce
of paper that had been i'm an altitude
test and had been calibrated. BY
these comparisons the opinion was en-
pressed that the peak was not over
$4,000 feet. The process of calibra-
ton cannot begin until o'clock to-
morrow morning, at which time the

Leaves Trail of Smoke.
Lieut. Champion glided into his
safe landing in the corn-patch without
the knowledge of the little group
which had waited at the point of take
off for his return. The last seen of
him was a long dive, behind which he
left a trail of white smoke, resem.
bling a sky.writing plane. and then he
appeared to be climbing. This con-
fused those on the ground, and many
opinions as to the cause were ex-
pressed. Lieut.. Comdr. Homer G..
Wick, commanding the station, said
it looked as though he were afire and
was preparing to jump, but as no
parachute hove in sight, the opinion
prevailed that his engine had quit and
he had dived it, a thousand feet or so,
using the dive to turn over the big
propeller.
Some one at the north end of the
station saw the plane glide in and dis.
appear behind some trees. A rush to
the scene was made by half dozen
automobiles and the little ship was
found resting as comfortably as
though it were on the line at the
field
The ingenious method of fighting
the fire saved the ship for the NAVY
and prevented the pilot from jumping
with the possibility of landing in the
water. In that event. his layers or
clothing would have rendered him vir-
tually helpless. Lieut.. Champion also
thought of the possibility of his plane
plunging wildly down through space
and striking in congested area with
possible damage to property or in
jury to persons.
Shortly after the pilot landed he
called Comdr. Wilson, who is resting
at his home, and gleefully announced:
"Ha, ha, I've got three fires on you
you had one and had four" Comdr.
Wilson, 1t is understood, was perfect
~ willing for Lieut.. Champion to have
the distinction.
Champion on May took Wright
Apache seaplane to height of 33,455
feet over Hampton Roads. The for
mer seaplane record was 30,479 feet.
lie has to his credit also victories
in speed and efficiency contests in the
national air races held last year at
Philadelphia.
The aviator has been in the Navy
since 1916. having been appointed to
the Naval Academy from Savannah,
Ga. in 1916. He was trained largely
at the Pensacola Air Station.
