BIZ United Press
LONDON, Sept 28-Fifty scatter
troop-carrying aircraft now are be-
ing designed by British aeronaut-
1cal experts to replace the twenty
tive-seater machines that have been
doing excellent work for year or
more in Iraq.
y. The keel of the first of the fifty
seaters is to be laid shortly, and
from the data gained from the per-
.formance of the new machines,
plans will be laid for the construc-
ton of whole fleet of these new
giants of the air.
Planes AlI-Metal
Although the design of the new
machines is naturally an air min
istry secret, it is understood that
they will be of all-metal construc-
ton, have central engine rooms like
those OF an ocean-going liner, and
the motors will be so disposed that
in the event OF one of them going
wrong in the air, this will not seri-
ously affect the flying powers of the
airplane.
IS In the case of minor breakdownS
1t should be possible to effect re-
pairs while the machine is still in
flight.
The seats are to be of the "tip-
up variety so that the airplanes
can, if necessary, be used for the
transport of munitions, food or
other materials of war to enable
troops already landed to hold their
positions indefinitely.
81 "Joy Rides to Battle
~ AS in the present twenty-five
,Seaters, the new machines will be
equipped with elaborate devices for
radio-telephone communication with
headquarters.
The hanging aerialS will be used
for communicating while in flight,
and telescope mastS that can be
raised while the machine is on the
ground, and through them summon
aid in case of a forced landing, or
in case immediate reinforcements
are needed to support troops already
landed.
Thus, instead of trudging weary
miles overland, or being polted Ill
trucks over rough roads, British
soldiers engaged in fighting Great
Britain's frontier battles will in the
future joy-ride to the battle front
at no miles an hour as comfortably

their given names. declares Prof.
George r. Steward, Jr., of the Uni
yersity of California faculty. He has
completed a survey of thousands of
Christian names to determine the pop
ularity trend from 1870 to the present
lime and coupled with 1t a study of
names.
There lie few men who don't wish
they had a different first name,' Pro
fessor Steward says.
The majority of men, however, he
says, are satisfied If given the more
common names and William and John
are as much In use now as 40 years
ago.
Since 1890, Mary" for some un.
learned reason, has become less popu-

San Francisco. Astronomers Of The

Much Importance is attached 10 the

stars which will form q background
for Eros In 1880.

Plans to Keep Tower of
Pisa From Topping Over

Paris.-Dr. Edouard Imbeaux, for
mer professor at the government en-
cheering school and corresponding
member of the Academy of Sciences,
has a plan to keep the famous "Lean-
Ing Tower of Pisa" from topping over,
as 1t seems certain to do Ii its foun-
dations continue to sag as they have
done for 600 years.
Doctor Imbeaux goes on the, assump-
ton that the sagging Is caused by
the flow of subterranean streams
flowing toward the sea and prevent
Ing the slate and clay which form the
foundations from hardening sufficient
ly to uphold the heavy structure. He
proposes to freeze a broad band all
around the bottom of the tower to a
depth of 20 or 80 feet and then pom
cement between that band and the
walls of the tower.
Completed In the year 1860 the tow
er, which is 1870 feet high, is now al
most five feet out of plumb, the south
ern side sinking on an average one
millimeter a year. Unless something
Is done to stop it there will inevitably
come a day when the equilibrium of
the tower will be disturbed to such
an extent that 1t can no longer re-
main erect.
