AIR PULLMANS
IN '38 TOCARRY
so PASSENGERS
Six Seaplanes Are Being
Built To Dwarf
Clipper Ships
BY HOWARD J. BRICE
United Press Staff Correspondent


SEATTLE, Nov. 19-(U1o) - Six
mammoth seaplanes that will be
able to carry so passengers nonstop
more than 5000 miles are being con-
structed at the Boeing Aircraft
company plant here.
American Airways contracted
for the ships and intends to use
them in trans-oceanic passenger
service. They will inherit the name,
Clipper, from the smaller planes
now used by the company.
Capable of carrying 72 passengers
on short flights, the planes will be
powered with four Wright Cyclone
engines that combined can develop
more horsepower than two ordinary
railway locomotives.
Months of planning were required
before the motors were acceptable.
They are the largest radial engines
vet built and will carry the AIR
pullmans' through the sky at a top
speed of about 200 miles an hour.
Boeing engineers say flight can be
maintained on two of the engines.
Engines In Cabins
The barrel-like nacelles that Will
house the horsepower engines
will be large enough for mechanics
to stand inside them and repair
faulty motor while the ship is IN
flight. To get to the nacelles. me-
chanics can step along catwalK
from the flight bridge.
The new planes will be half again
as large as those Pan-Americans
used in Pacific flights and twice as
big as the new Empire flying boats
operated by Imperial Anyways OF
Great Britain.
The part OF the Boeing plant
where the ships are being built re-
sembles a shipyard more than an
airplane factory. Above each other
on platforms and walkways at i've
different levels, workmen are piec-
ing together the first two of the SIX
planes.
ScaffOlding Hides Hulls
So completely are the two hulls
enclosed in jigs and scaffoding that
the embryo planes themselves are
barely visible. The hulls will be
finished in their present docks
and then will be moved outside the
assembly builGing near the end OF
the year to have their 152-foot wings
attached.
Piece by piece, the next two fly
ing boats will take their place IN
the assembly jigS.
With all main framework already
riveted in place, the first two ships,
which will wegih more than 40 tons

Christmas Club
Will Distribute
$32O,OOO,O 900 Soon

NEW YORK, Nov. 19-Three hum
drec and twenty million dollars will
be distributed to about 6,6OO,OOO
CHRISTMAS CLUB members by
proximately 4,5OO banking institu-
tions and organizations within the
next two weeks according to an estl-
mate given out yesterday by Herbert
F. Rawell, founder and president
of CHRISTMAS CLUB, A Corpo-
ration.
The annual distribution for 1887
and the number of members par
ticipating has not kept step with in
creased pay rolls and increased en-
ployment.
Decreased revenue from invest
ments, occasioned by the abnormal
ly low rates for money recently
prevailing with and increased opera
ing costs in banking institutions,
having made it difficult for some
commercial banks ito profitably
handle CHRISTMAS CLUB depos-
its. While several banks have met
this situation by a small service
charge, others are withholding this
form of saving until an improve
,nent is established in the rates for
money.
Because of these factors, there
was a decrease in the number OF
participating banks this year re-
sulting in a decline of the total
number of people participating IN
the CHRISTMAS CLUB accumula-
ton. The number of CHRISTMAS
CLUB members for each partici-
pating bank, however, increased on
the average, 80 and the total per-
bank accumulation increased about
11qo. These increases were substan-
tial in all Mutual Savings Banks.
There was similar increase in the
estimated average amount for each
member from $465O in 1886 to $48.-
SIS in 1897.

APPROPRIATION
BILLS TO BE
RUSHED THRU
Quick Action Pledged
For Measure in
Legislature

SACRAMENTO. March 2.|U.P)--
Early action on special appropria-
ton bills was promised in the legis-
lature today as members of the
assembly Ways and Means COM
mittee agreed to pass as many bills
as possible to the floor before the
lower house begins active consid-
Grafton of Governor Frank F. Mer-
RAMS budget.
The governors desire to hold the
budget within s466, 200, 900 for the
next two-year period failed to dis
suade lawmakers from seeking addi-
tional outlets for money and there
were some rs special appropriation
measures awaiting action by the
Ways and Means Committee. Many
Of them were designed to increase
the budgetary allowances for state
institutions, veterans homes and
state colleges.
The usual slow start prevented
the legislature from accomplishing
anything important the opening
day, and there were few subjects
slated for consideration today.
