passengers and depending upon IL
motors and wing span of 1874 feet
to lift it's 50-ton bulk into the air
is the undisputed queen of large
planes-to date. The large sea-
plane also is prominent in the
Italian aeronautical world.
In this country the trend has
been toward the development OF
large landplanes. The National
Capital has been host this week to
the largest of these new ships, q
four-motored Fokker, which is de-
signed to carry 80 passengers and
a crew of four. This is the largest
transport plane SO far built in the
United States and is one of the
largest landplaneS in the world.
Despite it's huge size the F-32, as
the new Fokker is known, flies
beautifully, is amazingly fast and
appears to handle we'll in the air
and on the ground. During
demonstration trips here Lieut..
Harry Johnson, Army Air Corps,
has been flying the ship on two
motors, with 20 or more paSsen-
gers aboard. On one flight, when
the writer was a passenger, he
throttled down both left motors
and not only flew on the two right
motors alone, but actually turned
against them, apparently without
great difficulty. Capt. Eddie Rick
enbacker is authority for the
statement that the plane will
maintain altitude with partial
load on single motor and will
climb with full load on the two
rear motors or fly level on any
two engines.
Factory for Huge Planes.
Satisfied with the performance
of the giant, the Fokker Aircraft
Corporation will begin construc-
ton Immediately of a factory ad-
joining the Alhambra Airport of
the Western Air Express in Cali
fornia, where the four motored
planes are to be built at the initial
rate of one plane a week. Orders
for six of them already have been
received.
This city also was visited re-
Gently by the first commercial
Curtiss Condor, transport ver-
sion of the new Army heavy
bombardment plane. This plane
carries 10 passengers, with crew
of three. A new tri-motored Boe-
ing transport of similar size is
expected here soon.
This country'S largest domesti-
cally designed and produced flying
boat has just been accepted by the
Navy as a patrol plane. 1t is a
tWin-engined monoplane of 100
foot span, with an all-metal hull
approximately 70 feet long. So
successful were the Navy test per-
formanceS that construction of a
commercial model of the same
plane is to be undertaken.

work on a four-motored biplane

PRESIDENT HOOVER
 BECOMING POPULAR
On Way to Being One Of Best
 Liked Executives

Washington, Oct. s. Tt may not be a matter of news, but it cer- tainly is a thought not to be over- looked Herbert Hoover threatens to become one of the most popular of American presidents.
 There is nothing about his per sonality, as thus far revealed. that would be likely to endear him to the popuace. But he has shown plenty of skill in not doing the un- popular things and in doing and saying the things which have struck responsive chords with large masses of people.
 Even the Democrats have had to praise him so frequently as to give considerable pain. Your correspond ent knows 8 dozen persons who know Hoover well and dislike him personally, yet are willing to admit a really fine job.
 Something Like Teddy
 And although it is too early to make any safe predictions, it can be said with some assurance that if Hoover continues to show up as well as he has in the first seven months he will rank in general esteem with Roosevelt as one of the two outstanding Republican presi- dents since Lincoln. Of course. there is plenty of likelihood that Hoover will have plenty of trouble before he leaves the White House.
 Lately Hoover has been in the midst of what appears to be enor- nous strides toward an assured world peace. Amid loud cheers on all sides, he has been conducting negotiations with England which ought to result in a permanent un- derstanding with our main naval rival. Thanks to Hoover and Pre- mier Ramsay Macdonald, the whole International atmosphere has been changed. The Kellogg peace treaty was negotiated in the Coolidge ad- ministration, but Hoover is the man who intends to make it stick and who actually seeks 10 cut ! military and naval expenses. Nothing, apparently, could have been more popular than Hoover s peace policy coupled with his strong open attack on the big navy propagandists who were trying to interfere with his naval reduction l efforts. Everybody has joined him
