TESTS SHOW GAINS
IN AIR MAIL SPEED
New York Atlanta Officials Report
to National Advisory Body
for Aeronautics.

On the tenth anniversary of the first
test fight, made by the National Ad-
visory Committee for Aeronautics at
Langley Field, Va, March 2, 1919. the
committee last night was notified by
officials of the New York Atlanta air
mail line that the latest aeronautical
development achieved by the commit
tee mas been applied with great success
to the mail planes on their line.
The first of the Pitcairn mail planes
has been experimentally equipped with
the new cowling for radial, air-cooled
motors, recently devised by the COM
mittee at its Langley Field laboratories
and test flights have indicated an in
crease in speed from 1913 to LA miles
an hour, the committee was informed
This increase in speed with the same
engine power will mean marked i'm
provement in schedule flying, giving
greater speed in case Of storms or adj
verse winds, greater cruising range and
greater fuel economy, the air mail Of
f1cials reported.
The first test fight at Langley Field
10 years ago was made by Edward P
Warner, now Assistant Secretary of the
Navy for Aeronautics, who then was
employed by the National Advisory
Committee for Aeronautics as an aero.
nautical engineer.
The greatest credit is due Mr. War

Musician Dies to Escape Deafness,
Taking Pet Dog With Pistol Bullet

Mrs. Wild said her husband, who for
more than 80 years was a conductor of
the Apollo Club and the Mendelssohn
Maennerchor, had been respondent
since deafness began restricting his
musical usefulness. He often told her,
she said, that life had become burden
because of his failing hearing.
Mr. Wild, who was 81 years old was
born in Hoboken, N. j., and was edu-
Gated here and in Germany. For a
quarter of a century he was organist of
Grace Protestant Church. Two years
ago he resigned his 30-year connection
with the Apollo Club, remarking at the

road are enough
He was a member of the Chicago
Manuscript Society and the American
Guild of Organists. For many years he
maintained music studio here.
