WIND is WORST
FOE OF filters
OVER ATLANTIC
Ocean Ayiator'S Fate Often
Depends on Preparations
Before Starting.
BY J. w. YOUNG
United Press Science CORRESPONDENT

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-When
pilot Enrol Boyd and navigator
Harry Conner few their trans
Atlantic inonoplane Columbia out
over thousands of miles Of island
less ocean, in one sense they were
not as handicapped as a blind
folded man trying to walk across
a football gridiron in a straight line.
Yet, to miss target more than
two thousand miles away by only
$50 miles does not indicate a bad
shot.
When intelligently used, the COM
mon instruments of air navigation
are excellent direction finders and
readily keep a pilot from falling
into the blindfold habit of travel
ing in circles.
Even when closed in by thick
fog, a good aviator can hold to his
original direction with variation
of only 2 per cent to the side, and
on a long fight these variations
will average out and reduce the
probable error to per cent.
Wind Is Worst
His instruments are bank and
turn indicator, compass, pitch in
dicator and air speed indicator.
But such a flight can be &C
complished only in still atmosphere,
and still atmosphere exists for the
1,anet mart in theory
Winds are the cause Of the trans
Atlantic flier's chief worry.
At flying elevations it is not UNI
usual to encounter winds blowing
at fifty miles an hour. Such a gale
quickly can throw an air navigator
off his course.
One way of determining the eff
feet of wind is with the smoke bomb
indicator. A smoke bomb is dropped
and as the plane flies away sights
are taken on it's smoke to meas
ure the angular differences between
the line of sight and the axis OF
the fuselage of the plane. Then
the true course can be very closely
held by applying this angle as a cor
rection.
Must Study Weather Maps
Or, if it is night, observations to
find a planes position can be taken
on two fixed stars. Even one in
experienced in using a sextant can
locate his position on the earth
within twenty-five miles. 1t is more
difficult to make accurate obser-
vations on the sun in the day.
But suppose the weather is dark
and stormy, or if at night the stars
can not be seen. 1t is too foggy to
use the drift indicator. Then the
wind will sweep the flier off his
course.
Not what he does then, but what
he has done before he hoped off
will save him. He will not know
where he is going unless he has
studied weather maps gracefully and
plotted his course with corrections
tn allow for the wind, and the
weather behaves exactly as pre-
dicted.

WET DEMOCRAT
LIKELY TO Be
OHIO SENATOR
Buckley Seems Certain to
End Dry Dynasty Set
by Wheeler.
BY cay TUCKER
scripps- Howard STAFF Writer

CLEVELAND, Oct. Is. - Ohio,
birthplace Of the Anti Saloon
League and the w. C. T. u, seems
determined to. send to the United
States senate Democrat who adj
vocates repeal of the eighteenth
amendment. He is Robert j. Bulk
ley, wealthy lawyer, prominent
business man of this city and fig
ure new to national politics.
Senator Roscoe McCulloch, his
Republican rival, may be the last
Ohio member of the dry dynasty
founded at the capital and in forty
eight state legislatures by the late
Wayne B. Wheeler and his Anti
Saloon League allies.
AS the Buckeye state led the pro-
hibition parade for ten or more
years, so it may be the first to fall
out with nationwide reverbration.
The shock may be heard even in
the White House and the Offices of
the Wickersham commission.
Prohibition Is Sole Issue
The off-year elections in other
states may be confused by side is
sues, such as Ruth McCormick's de-
tectives in Illinois and Clifford Pin
chot's progressive appeal in Penn
sylvania, but prohibition is the pa
ramount issue here.
That fact has whipped the drys
into desperate mood, but it has
given the vets an inspiration they
show nowhere else.
Buckley can not win, as all signs
indicate he will, by Democratic
votes, for Ohio is safely Republican.
Therein lies the significance of his
predicted triumph by from 100000
to 100000 votes. He will smash the
league, if he does, through ballots
Of Republican vets and ex-drys dis
gusted with ten years of prohibition.
Only unforeseen developments, such
as religious coups limited at by GER
tain G.. @. P. strategists, can pre-
vent such an outcome.
Revolution State-W Wide
The revolution is more than an
anti-prohibition movement. Otioans
are beginning to regard the league
and it's tactics much as the more
solid and sensible folk Of Alabama
look on Tom Hef1in.
The business interests think the
league has given the state a bad
name and bad advertising. The
average man abhors the Burbank
ing of politics and religion that
lowered here two years ago in
Mabel Walker Withdrawals "take
to your pulpitS" address to Meth
odist parsons.
Ohio seems a little bit ashamed
of itself. For decade, during the
postwar deflation and the Coolidge
boom, its business men were too
busy gazing at the Wall Street
ticker to take a good look at the
United States Constitution as
recently modified.
Time to Think Now
They we're happy to turn over
management of public affairs to the
preachers, the prohibitionists, the
propagandists and their willing
servants, the cavorting politicians.
But the slump afforded them
time to think, besides stirring social
economic and political restlessness.
Even honest drys are dissatisfied,

George w. Norris of Nebraska, candi-

The speaker denounced those whom

Prohibition in the United States, SEN
ator Norris asserted, has been a sue

pointments connected with the laws.
Nothing can be gained by trying to
avoid the truth"
Senator Norris subscribed himself to
enforce the law without thought of re-

Injection Of politics and politicians,
he charged, into enforcing of the act

ment.
