NEW YORK, Nov. e. The great
seaplane's motors. newly reused, were
coughing from the cold.
Resting high on its ways on the
deck of the catapult surface vessel, the
machine took on fantastic shapes In
the dim light shed by electric bulbs
Just aft Of the hangar gouged out OF
the stern section.
Forward, in warm cabins. beer
glasses were raised to this, another in
a long series of experimental trans
Atlantic flights stretching over two
seasons. Visitors had come aboard in
a launch, and spray in their faces as
they neared the high rampant OF the
Friesenland's hull bespoke a storm
over Long Island Sound.
The majority was German.
Fifteen or is hours to Horta," some
one remarked.
"On the basis of reports" another
replied with Teutonic preciseness, "15
hours and 80 minutes"
Products of German ingenuity, plane
and mother ship were attempts to
answer the question of springing heavy
loads into the air in conquest OF one
of the stormiest portions of the globe,
the North Atlantic.
A transport seaplane or flying boat
can carry more in the air than 1t can
lift from the water. The catapult i'm
proved efficiency.
As the visitors drank, propellers be-
gan churning the water. The Friesen-
land was moving out into the sound
where the seaplane, to be shot on its
journey of 1893 miles with compressed
air, would have ample room to land
on the water If anything went awry.
A hundred feet from the stern of
the vessel the four oil-burning motors
of the airplane throbbed. warming to
the task ahead. The take-off was set
for about 10 pm for almost an hour
before, fuel would be poured to those
power plants while the crew made
ready.
A sullen moon, clouds before its face,
now and then emerged briefly to
silhouette the stark outlines of the
plane. To its projectile-shaped gray
hull were appended floats which
looked like galoshes on a dragonfly.
Smoke pouring from the exhausts
was caught by the wind from the pro-
pellers and dissolved in the darkness.
Here and there figure moved.
Blasts Of air tore at clothing. The
explosions Of the motors were mingled
in a strident, mechanical cry which
forbade conversation.
The time was nearing.
Four men strobe from a companion
way toward the long, steel cradle tc

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. GA new
clue to the miracle of harnessing the
energy Of the sun. promising man a
chance to make his food and fuel al
most directly from sunlight was an
nounced to the American Institute Of
Physics Symposium on Biophysics
today.
The clue is discovery of a dual
nature in chlorophyll, the green color
ing matter in plants. The green stuff
is used by plant leaves to manufacture
starch and sugar from sunlight and
from the carbon dioxide and water in
the air 1t is the source of all food.
Famous laboratories for several
years have been extracting the chloro-
phyll from plants and trying. in test
tubes. to find a way to use it for
direct, artificial manufacture of food
from sunlight. The experiments have
never quite reached success.
The explanation of this failure Is
the discovery reported today by the
Kettering Foundation, Antioch COL
lege, Yellow Springs, Ohio, that the
green stuff, which scientists have been
extracting. is not the same as the
chloophyll in the plants.
The test tube extract is only the
green coloring matter. 1t does not
contain heretofore unrecognized pro-
tein substance which is part of the
chlorophyll in the plant. Without this
second part, the test tube material is

and disappeared inside.
A light cleaned in the cockpit. Half
seen, like an upstage character in a
moonlit play, one Of the pilots slipped
into his seat and adjusted his wireless
headset.
The Friesenland had reversed her
engines now and was crawling stern
first into the wind. Pin-points Of
yellow danced far across the water,
marking houses ashore.
A howl, which was an overtone of
the motors, issued from below decks.
Drawn out, it took on the timbre Of
q wall Engineers were sucking air
into the cylinder which would cata-
pult the seaplane on its voyage.
It was 9:48. The Friesenland had
increased its speed to 10 knots astern
and a brisk wind with q hint of
winter smote the seamen at the far
end of the runway waiting for signal
from the cockpit.
A lone light shooting past seq

Now white light almost athwart the
steel runway flashed on, flashed OF.

A whoosh! Like the gasp Of Titan

The plane shot past, an unclaimed
wrath.
Three hundred yards away its tail
light blinked briefly as the machine
swept skyward and was lost to sight.
The low thunder of it's motors faded.
The silence on deck was crystalline
broken only by the distant pulsing Of
the Friesenland's engines.

He spoke on the eve of the arrival
in Canada of Secretary of State Hull,
who passed considerable time in con-
versation with Premier w. L. Macken-
zie King in Ottawa. As one Of the
vital points affecting the neighborly
relations Of the two nations and q
topic close to Mr. Hull's credo, 1t is
fair assumption that trade was
mentioned whether or not there was
any definite reference to negotia-
tions with London. There was, of
course, no oficial suggestion from
Mr.. Hull. who declined to comment on
Mr.. Cahan's statements.
Mr.. Cahan, former Secretary Of
State. declared the United States was
now inviting Canada to give up some
OF its preferences with nations in the
British Empire so that their farmers
may obtain larger and more profitable
markets in the United Kingdom" To
this end he said, "a most vicious and

well be used with strong effect in an

Bishop Freeman listed three needs
Of modern preaching:
U) A reafirmation of the elemen-
tal imperatives of religion.
Cd A reappraisal Of agencies and
nechanisms, beause you don't get

To Harvesting Suns Energy

unable to- duplicate the food-making
work of leaves.
One proof that the test tube chloro-
phyll is not the same as natures is
the fact that when light shines upon
it no oxygen is given of, as happens
when light falls on plants.
Two pieces of evidence of the ex-
istence Of the "other half" of chloro-
phyll in living leaves were reported
One came from use of the spectro-
scope, whose beams showed that this
other substance was in the chlorophyll
of leaves but not in the test tube.
The other evidence came from the
ultra -centrifuge. the spinning top
which separates compounds, under the
pull Of centrifugal force, into their
primary parts.
Heretofore the green matter has
been extracted by chemistry. The
chemicals. it was declared by the Ket-
tering Foundation, have "denatured'
the chlorophyll. That Is, the chem
icals have either destroyed or split
from the chlorophyll its protein "other

Calls on Nation to Support
Effort to Maintain Dis.
aSter Relief.

Admiral Cary r. Grayson, chairman
Of the American Red Cross, yesterday
called on the Nation to support the
organization in its efforts to maintain
effective disaster relief facilities.
Pointing to the annual report of the
Red Cross, in which it detailed its
relief work in connection with 1875
disaster appeals, Admiral Grayson dis
closed that increased preparedness for
such emergencies is planned in the
coming year through development of
local chapter facilities.
Membership enrolment, now under
way, is particularly essential in such
preparations, he said.
THE importance of preparedness Is
emphasized when We realize that dis
asters struck 36 States and 384 coun-
ties during the IL month ended last
June &c." Admiral Grayson said. mo
community, no city or town can be
considered immune to sudden catas-
trophe, and the Red Cross is deter
mined to focus public attention on the
fact that preparedness pays"
Commenting further on prepared
ness plans, the chairman said en-
phasis was being placed on the Or
ganization of local committees whose
responsibility it would be to maintain
skeleton organizations and commit
tees for quick mobilization of COM
munity resources, secure sufficient
medical and nursing assistance, hos
pitfalls, transportation facilities, chan
nels Of communication with affected
areas and arrange for housing and
feeding large numbers of refugees.
The number of disasters during the
II months covered in the report was
IS per cent higher than the average
over 10-year period. it was said.
Aid was extended to 1,075,000 persons
as contrasted to AS 5000 persons aided
during the preceding year.
