LARGEST LOCOMOTIVE IN WORLD COMPLETED
 IN SPOKANE SHOPS

Longer by one-inch than any other
 steam locomotive in the wordl, so fal
 as is known, Dan Daxon, locomotive
 engineer on the Alaska Railroad, who
 passed thru Seward Sunday from the
 States, dropped a photograph in The Gateway office of the huge engine,
 Mo- 2O34, built in the Spokane shops
 of the Great Northern.
 The monster locomotive, costing $100,000, is known as the 2-8-S2 type and is 1OS feet and one-inch long and is really two engines actual ly combined in one frame. The engine and tender, ready for the road with 17,000 gallons of water in the tank, and 5,200 gallons of fuel oil, weigh 920,44O pounds.
 Following road tests the engine will be sent to the Kalispel division for hauling 50OO-ton freight trains at 35- miles an hour over the Rockies from Whitefish to Cutbank, Mont. Shop Superintendent Joseph Hurley, Gen. eral Foreman Alex B. Colville and 24 men who worked on it are proud of the first and largest engine the shop ever turned out.
 Actual construction work was com menced with the arrival of the boil CT from Seattle on October 4, and Az working days were necessary to com plete the monster While the frame was forged in Pittsburgh, and the boil CT manufactured elsewhere, the ac- tual machining, turning, grinding and aligning, fitting and other machine work were carried out in the Hillyard shops. A brass plate carries the let tering Built Hillyard Shops, 1927"
 To those interested in mechanics, No. 2034 is the last word in locomo- tive equipment. It has both steam and injectors, mechanical lubri- ! eating devices, superheaters, air act uated reverse gear and other features. l Only an engineer would appreciate these other features. The engine is designed to exert tractive effort of 130,000 pounds, which means pulling l a train weighing 5000 tons along at passenger train speed. The 2034 is one of four the Great Northern is building in the Hillyard shops.

TEST HARD SURFACE
PLANE RUNWAYS
Concrete at Ford Airport Pointed
Out as Solution of Land
ing Problem.

ST. PAUL R).-Now come pavements
for airplanes to use for landings and
take-offs
This imminent development in the
newest transportation industry was de-
Scribed IN paper prepared for preSen-
tation before the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers, meeting here,
by B. Russell Shaw of st. Louis. aero
nautic construction engineer. His sub
ject was Modern Airports and Airport
Planning"
The proper surface for an airport
has received a great amount of atten-
ton and criticism" he said. There
are those who argue that sod Is the
best. others advocate cinders, gravel,
crushed rock or iron Stag. The latest
surface to be used is concrete
Shaw enumerated the drawbacks of
various surfaces. In very wet weather
or in Spring. when frost is coming out
of the ground, sod is very bad" with
ttn handicap also that tail skids cut
deeply. Cinders. gravel and crushed
rock tend to be picked up by pro-
pellers, with damage to blade tips. the
sides of the fuselage and tail surfaces.
The ease with which tail skids tear up
these surfaces adds to the hazard.
Iron Stag acts much like crushed rock.
Three-wheel landing gears, with a
wheel replacing the tail skid, are re-
turning to use, lending themselves to
hard-surface runways. Shaw points to
the concrete installed at the Ford Air
port as the first experiment and a So
DIion OF the landing problem.

An indication of the efficiency OF the

message sent to headquarters by a
ground patrol:
I'VE certainly could not ask for finer

US They picked us out in the thick

Need For Big Ships.
When the Marines first landed In
Nicaragua. the transportation OF sup
plies and personnel was limited to
such service as could be afforded by
utilizing the two-seater observation
planes. Yet many transportation
f1iohts of the greatest value were made
bv these ships. The practice, however,
was not desirable for the reasons that
the observation planes were diverted
/ from their legitimate duties the carry
/ ing of freight In dual control planes
involved unnecessary hazard; the
planes were not economical for the pur-
pose and their capacity was insuthcient
! to supply the needs.
So Mai Edwin H. Brainard, chlef OF
Marine Corps Aviation, recommended
the purchase of strictly transport
type plane and personally piloted 1t
from Washington to Managua. The
great usefulness OF this airplane was
50 obvious that additional ships were
Immediately contracted for.
Entire garrisons in the most remote
localities of Nicaragua depend wholly
upon the transports for supply. The
four ships In use before the recent
arrival of the fifth, piloted by Lieut.. G.
Frank Schilt, transported an entire
regimental headquarters to the front.
Minor troop movements were effecteo,
the sick and wounded were evacuated
from the scene of operations, casual
officers and enlisted men were carried,
the mail is being delivered and emer-
gency articles and material OF every
conceivable nature are hauled with the
greatest speed and safety. The planes
have carried about $500,000 in the
form of pay rolls and dropped the
money to outlying attachments without
the loss OF a penny. All of these move
ments have been accomplished without
; accident.
The air transport service has operated
to facilitate the conduct OF the CAM
!. paign as we'll as to establish new

Commercial Lines Projected to
Bring Country Into Closer
Contact.

SHANGHAI tPl.-Commercial avi-
alton as a means for furthering China 5
unification is receiving the attention OF
the Nationalist government and the
provincial authorities.
Although no airplane lines have yet
been put into operation. various
schemes have been announced as under
consideration.
One of the most ambitious ones is to
establish a commercial air line center
ing at Hankow, 500 miles up the
Yangtse River. and operating planes
north to Peking south to Canton ard
east to Shanghai, each route including
smaller places along the line of flight
That to Pcking would. include points
along the Hankow-Peking railway and
also Tientsin, 80 miles east of Peking
That to Shanghai would include severa
small river towns. with an important
stop at Nanking, seat of the National
ist government.
The line south would include but few
stops between Hankow and Canton, but
It is felt this route would serve a vital
need in bringing the rich areas OF
South China into closer touch with
| Central and North China and strength
en- the nationalist authority in South
China.
Another proposed air route is from
Canton to Shanghai. along the coast
including all the important coast towns
south of Shanghai. such as Annoy
Foochow. Swatow and others Hong
kong is also included in this proposed
line.

BERLIN (Pl.-GeSrnany continues to
set the pace for Europe in the spectacu-
lar development of air freight and
passenger service.
The semi-annual report of the Luft-
hansa Germanys most ambitious air
transport enterprise shows during the
first six months of 1928 total passen-
ger traffic of 46,231. This number OF
persons were carried in the regular
service planes.
In the same period of 1927 the fig
ure was 1886 Approximately 928,360
pounds of freight were transported in
the first half of this year. compared
with $50, 900 pounds in the correspond
ing period of 1927. The transportation
of mails has grown proportionately.
The total number of fight kilometers
has increased from 100000 in 1927 to
4.70O, 900 already this year. This sud-
den growth is due chiefly to the inaugu-
ration of express services over the main
routes.
The expansion in volume OF freight
traffic has been due primarily to the
addition of new services connectinJ

The latter include Austria. Holland.
