NEW SAFETY DEVICE
! IN FLYING LAUDED.
CoWling for Radial Air-CooIed
/ Engines Increases Plane
Utility, Is Claim.

!, The speed safety, economy and flying
range of multi-motored transport air.
planes such as are used on the passen-
ger lines of the country, viii be mate
rally increased by the application Of the
new cowling for radial air-cooled en-
gines, developed by the National Adv.s-
DRY Committee for Aeronatuics, Govern
ment officials stated in report issued
today.
Today's report deals with the applica-
ton of the cowling to cupboard motors,
Ia previous report having been issued on
the application of central fuSelage
motors mounted as in the case of sim
gle motored planes.
Use of the new cowling on tri-motored
planes having cruising speed of 100
miles an hour will increase the speed to
100 or 125 miles per hour, an increase
represented by an expenditure Of $4,000
for additional motor power, the report
said. The cowling costs but $25 per
motor. A fuel saving also is claimed.
The cowls cover the irregular projec-
tions of the motor, reducing air resist
ance and regulating the flow of air
about the hottest portions of the motors
so as to increase cooling efficiency.
The safety is increased because of the
fact that plane will be able to fly as
well with two cowled motors as with
three uncowled engines. Thus 1t was
indicated that if the Fokker transport
plane from Boiling Field which crashed
near Middletown, Pa, recently, with q
loss of eight lives, had been equipped
with motor cowls the fatal crash could
have been avoided when one of the en-
gineS failed.

at Madames claim that the canvas
is an authentic Leonardo Da Vinci.
Led by her lawyer. s. Lawrence

as a wedding present by her family.
This was in 1919. Previously

Montant of Paris. She got it from
her father who, in turn, inherited
it from his sire.
Thus according to the plaintiff,
she is able to trace the painting
to 1896, when La Belle" was pre-.
sented to Louis Touton, one OF
Napoleon's generals. Madame de-
clares there are documents and
wills which support her conten'

Still
Sir Joseph Alleges that it is a
long way from the time of Da Finci,
the famous Florentine, who died in
1913, to General Touton, fighting
man of 1856. The issue hinges on
the whereabouts of the canvas dur

Sir Joseph insists the picture is
a copy of Da Vinci's work and that
it was created in the eighteenth
century or later.
