LARGEST PASSENGER.
PLANE SUCCESSFUL
IN TESTING FLIGHTS
25-Passenger Cabin Plane Built
in New Style by 34-Year-
Old Designer

Newark, N. j., Jan. 9.-(P)-The
largest airplane ever built In this
country, a 20-paSsenger cabin plane
Of unusual construction, today had
yindicated the theories of its "a
year old designer.
The plane made four test flights
yesterday, one carrying Is passengers,
and after another week OF tests 1t is
planned to fly the machine to Wash
ington and then across the continent
to San Francisco.
The designer is Vincent J. Burnel-
Il who planned the craft to minimize
the drag of the fuselage. The body
Is twelve feet wide and has its two
motors set side by side in the nose
and fully enclosed. The contour OF
the fuselage is streamlined. as also Is
the wing section, to convert the usual
drag unit into an airfoil with con-
siderable lifting qualities.
Construction Of the plane was fl
nanced by Paul w. Chapman, New
York and Chicago financier. It is
planned to put 1t in passenger serv-
ice as the first Of fleet of 20 or
more.
The plane has a fuel capacity OF
1000 gallons and can make 2,4OO miles
at cruising speed Of lis miles an
hour. It has wing span of 80 feet
and Is ~ feet long. 1t is of all metal
construction.
The cabin interior Is luxuriously
furnished. including running water
kitchen and steward service. There
are twelve upholstered swivel chairs
before the windows and two centre
lounges. The walls of the cabin are
sOundproof to lessen the din of thu
exhaust.
On its test flights yesterday. tn,
plane was operated by Lieut.. Leigh
Wade, one Of the pilots on the arm,
round-the-world flight of 1924. wht
now is test pilot for Skylines, own

MOVES URGES CITY
TO GET ON AIR MAP
EARLY AND BENEFIT
Fort Lincoln's Former Flyer
Says Flying Is Growing
Swiftly; Saxvik Speaks

The developments in aerial naviga-
ton are proceeding SO tremendously
and swiftly, Bismarck was urged to
get on the air map early and derive
the advantages of growing up with
these developments, in talk on avi-
alton made by Captain Hal H. Noyes
Of Fort Lincoln before the Rotary
club at the noon luncheon.
Captain Noyes reviewed the entire
range In the development Of heavier
than-air flights by man, beginning
with the Kittyhawk glider tests of
the Wright brothers, IS years ago De-
cember II last. He instanced prior
attempts in Germany and France, and
those in the United States by Pro-
lessor Langley.
In this connection he said the
Wright plane undoubtedly was the
first heavier-than-air machine to fly.
The claim that the Langley kite ma
chine flew later when tried out with
q motor at the Curtiss factory at
Hammondsport, N. Y, he said, was
true only in the fact that q machine
rebuilt till 1t was not at all like the
original did fly. Captain Noyes lived
near the Curtiss plant and was an OBJ
server in those days Of some Of the
doingS there.
He also predicted that the original
Wright machine, now in q London
museum, will be brought back to this
country before long and will be ac-
corded the proper historical label,
denial of which caused Orville Wright
to permit 1t to 60 abroad for pres
ervation.
Captain Noyes spoke Of the devel-
opment Of the parachute as one of
the factors that is developing flying
It is, he said, providing comparative
safety. In fact, not Q passenger life
has been lost by the airmail planes
since passenger carriage became q

$1W,OO0PAYMEN7S
BY SOVIET T0BORAH
AND NORRIS UNTRUE
Documents Alleging Brides Are
Found to Be Forgeries Like
Mexican Papers

Washington, Jan. o. R - Docu-
ments purporting to show payments
Of 100000 each to Senators Borah
of Idaho and Norris of Nebraska by
the Soviet government for their serv-
ices to obtain American recognition Of
Russia have been declared false by .
senate committee which investigated
them.
It was disclosed today that the
documents had been under inveStiga-
ton for year by the committee,
which several months ego declared
papers showing payments by the
Mexican government to Senators Boz
rah and Norris and Helm of Alabama
and La Toilette of Wisconsin were
forgerjes.
The case was concluded with the
testimony of Senators Borah and Nor
ris before the committee that the
Russian documents were untrue.
Senator Reed of Pennsylvania, chair
man Of the committee, who is pre-
pairing report to the senate, de-
clared the senator's testimony was
not necessary, and that he had not
intended to make public the forgertes,
but that Norris and Borah had re-
quested him to do SO.
During visit to Europe last spring
Senator Reed attempted to find the
source of the papers, but he said to-
day that he was not ready to identity
the forgers.
The papers came into the hands OF
the committee last year, and included
alleged receipts signed by Senators
Borah and Norris of payments re-
ceived from the Russian government
Various sums were involved, but the
payments which attracted attention
purported to amount of 100000 to
each senator.
