This weird-shaped jet is the answer to a
tough Raj problem. 1t may soon be making
your own flying safer and more comfortable
by Albert Douglas

and can fly from commercial
airports - something which most
jets can't do.
A British magazine described
the Vulcan as flying faster, higher
and farther than any other bomb
er in the world" Our Air Force
refuses to confirm or deny that,
but the RAF is so impressed
with the plane that the manufac-
turer has been given a super
priority for its production. The
principle of delta design has been
extended to other types of British
planes.
The Wing Pxoblesm
lHE delta wing itself has a re-
markable history behind it. In the
early days of aviation, engineers
were largely content with wings
which could fly a plane but were
thick and primitive. Then as air
speeds increased. pushed by mill
tary needs, it was found that high
speed wings had to be narrow, and
narrow wings made for high land
ing speeds, up to $50 miles per
hour. This required runways two
and three miles long and much
more solid than the old-fashioned
dirt type. The cost of building air
ports shot up fantastically.
The British lack such air
ports ON the whole and their
aviation needs are just as criti-
cal as our own. They had to find
top-notch airplane designs which
could use small airports.
The British industry came up
with several designs plus the delta
(plus some superb jet engines) but
Evening star., 1954-05-16

it was the bat-shaped wing which
seemed to answer the British
prayer. The delta was relatively
cheap to build. Its thick wings and
comparatively light weight in rela-
ton to lift ability made the Vulcan
slow-landing and maneuverable.
But best of all the Vulcan was very
fast at high attitudes. The reason:
high up the air is so thin that the
thick wing offered little air resist
ance; in fact the extra lift proved
of considerable value.
American designers have by no
means ignored the delta (which
some experts claim originated
here); at least three new fighters,
Evening star., 1954-05-16

THERE's a revolution in airplane
l. wing design going on today
whose results promise to improve
your airplane travelling fly you
higher in the sky with more safety
and more comfort. As the British
Avro Vulcan bomber on our cover
shows, the shape of wings for very
fast planes is taking on a radical
change.
The Vulcan's strange wing de-
sign is called a delta. The British
feel that the delta is one answer =
one OF many proposed. it might be
noted - to flying atomic bomb
loads distances of over 1900 miles
above 5O,OOO-foot attitudes at or
above the speed of sound. At such
attitudes and speeds the very best
modern fighters would be hard
pressed to catch up with this
bomber not to mention making an
attack on it.
Above The Weather
VITAE as the Vulcan may prove
militarily, the great promise for the
delta wing could be in commercial
flying and it is not hard to see why.
Today an average airliner on long
er routes flies at 300 to $50 miles
per hour, at average attitudes of
10000 to 10000 feet.
In the foreseeable future, planes
designed on the lines of the Vulcan
may fly at $4,000 and 10000 feet,
high above the weather, where fly
ing is almost always smooth and at
speeds twice and eventually three
times that of present airliners.
DeItas also offer an additional
safety dividend; they land slowly

Jobless Pay Extend
Period 10 Is Weeks

A compromise plan to liber-
alize the Districts unemploy-
ment compensation program will
come up for approval in the
House and Senate early next
week.
House Senate conferees ar
rived at a quick agreement late
yesterday. shortly after the
House named its managers on
the issue. The solution is ex-
pected to be called up for action
in the House on Monday or
Tuesday. The Senate will act
later.
Both houses already are In
agreement on raising the joblesS
pay from $40 to $50 a week.
Major disagreements had been
over duration Of jobless benefit
payments and rules for disquali-
flcation. These had brought top
fight Government and labor
union officials into the argu-
ments.
Terms Recommended
House and Senate conferees.
however. quickly ironed out dis
agreements. They came up with
recommendations that Congress
approve:
!. Maximum duration of Is
weeks for jobless payments, as
proposed in the Senate bill, In
stead of % weeks in the House
bill. The present law permits 20
weeks.
2. This is modified by q rule
that the maximum payments
and duration shall be no more
than a third of the earned salary
for the base pay period" or the
last IL months the claimant
was employed. Present law
allows up to so per cent.
The Senate bill had proposed
q SO per cent base period rule.
8. A variable four-to-nine
week waiting time" period be-
fore a claimant goes on jobless
relief. This is in line with
present law and recommends
tionS of the House. The Senate
had taken a more liberal stand
in adopting an amendment
offered in the Senate by Senator
Morse, independent. of Oregon to
make it a fiat six weeks, none of
which would be charged against
the payments of the claimant.
disqualification Points.
The compromise bill also
carries some new language. list
ing reasons for disqualification
for those who quit jobs without
cause, or are fired for mis-
conduct, or those who refuse to
take offered jobs for which they
are qualified.
