Sail on Flying Boat
By United Press

By UnGte0 Press
LONDON, Sept. 20.-A new all
metal flying boat that carries a
mast and sail in case it is forced
to descend into the sea will be
tested on the River Clyde.
The hull of the boat is so de-
signed that, even with the wings
in position, it can be navigated as
a sailing vessel with a fair measure
of accuracy.
The boat is known as the Beard
more-Napier, and has been built to
the order of the Air Ministry. The
cons Iuction is on a new principle,
and the machine is thought to be
equally sea-worthy and air. worthy.
After tests the flying boat will be
handed over to the ministry and
sent to Felixstowe where secret
experiments will be made which, it
is believed, will have far-reaching
effects on some forthcoming long
distance flights.

Special Dispatch to The Star and North
American Newspaper Alliance.
NEW YORK, September 14.-How
much money do people from the United
States leave in Canada every year? No
official figures have been given out,
but guesses run all the way from
slOO. 0OO. 900 to $400, 100000. The Royal
Bank of Canada estimates that S275,-
600. 900 was left by United States
visitors to Canada in 1927, compared
with $40. 900 III 1925.
This year traffic has been unusually
heavy. In Quebec. which 3.434 cars
from the United States entered in 1915,
AIS, 900 cars we're expected to enter
this year. Ontario shows a much
larger figure, but the length OF stay
is less.
It is estimated that 100000 cars
from the United States will have en-
tered Canada before the close of the
present year. Canada, seeing what is
ahead, is busy spending millions OF
dollars for good roads.
Motor production is at the peak;
AS 600 cars were shipped from the
factories during Augusta new record
for all time Foreign demand Tor
American cars is unprecedcntedly nigh.
Domestic business Is excellent. 1t looks
as if the record of 4,503,000 motor cars
turned out in 1926 would be broken
before 1928 passes into history.
