Niigation of airplanes .-it pres ent, Mr. Jenkins fays, depends mainly on a sight of th-c ground over which the pilot is flying. Hy ing by night is hazardous in foggy weather, because the pilot must fly dangerously lo.v for sight of glid ing objects. The priti upal aim of his invention is to permit pilots to avoid p',s.-il.h; crashes by flying well over obstructions. This plan. Jenkins b-heves. is more satistac'ory for the sinuous land routes from field to field than the directional radio liam stations recently s, t up at San Francisco and Honolulu. Ohi.eiions to long straight beams a.s land guides are avoided .'by breakn.g up the course :nlo short sections, which can lie turned readily and can be used in either direction Hinubineously. The new automatic transmitter stations, plotted on a map, look like a string of beads laid zig-zag over the landscape, Jenkins says. They are inexpensive, costing no more than the present arc light "windmill tower" beacons which they replace successfully in to.'-'gy weather. WORLD PEACE AID iM.
