Flying Wing Capable
Of 500 M.P.H.
Developed at Langley
Government Scientists
Overcome Obstacle
Of 'Shock Wave'
By the Associated Press.
There's a new airplane w'ing at
Langley Field. Va., that is going to
carry America's sky fighters faster
than man has ever flown, according
to Government scientists at that
research center and Army air base.
Within the year, possibly, the
United States will use the wing to
build airplanes that will flash
through the skies at 500 miles an
hour, according to the National Ad
visory Committee for Aeronautics,
which directs research at the center.
Aeronautical wiseacres have con
tended for years that airplanes
would never fly faster than 475 miles
an hour. They said the “shock wave"
would tear a plane to pieces when it
reached that speed. Even as recent
ly as six months ago the National
Advisory Committee itself had held
to this theory.
Shock Wave Conquered.
But now the committee say it has
conquered the "shock wave."
This “wave" is a physical phenom
enon which an airplane would en
counter if it attained a speed of 475
miles an hour. Physicists assert air
flowing over a ship of present design
would cause such friction as to
create great heat. Air at this tem
perature would become heavy, like
a fluid.
How the new wing is going to buck
the shock wave, the scientists do not
explain. Its structure, they say, is
one of the most secret of military
inventions.
They have been able to develop it
through the use of the new wind
tunnel at Langley Field. In this
structure air velocities of 700 miles
an hour can be created.
“Pusher" Propeller Back.
Heavy bombers, as well as light
pursuit ships, can use the wing. It
would be a "flying wing." having no
fuselage, and with motors, rudders
and ailerons all set in the wings.
The wind spread would be about 160
feet—about 20 feet longer than
present ocean liners’ wings. The
propellers would be in the rear—
the "pusher” type.
The present aircraft speed record.
469.22 miles an hour, was set several
years ago by a German flyer. This
rate was attained with a stripped
down racing seaplane. But mili
tary airplanes, fully equipped for
duty, such as the Langley Field
technicians are designing, have
never exceeded 320 miles per hour.'

Radio Damages Decision
Reversed by Court
By the Associated Pres».
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 9—The
Pennsylvania Supreme Court re
versed yesterday an Allegheny County
Court decision which awarded the
Summit Hotel Co. of Uniontown
• Pa.) $15,000 damages based on a
slander suit against the National
Broadcasting Co.
The suit cited a remark by A1
Jolson, radio comedian, during an
interview on a Nation-wide broad
cast in 1935.
The Allegheny County Court had
held that the broadcasting company
"is responsible for what it broad
casts.”
In its decision today, the Supreme
Court said:
"A broadcasting company that
leases its time and facilities to an
other, whose agents carry on the
program, is not liable for an inter
jected defamatory remark where it
appears that it exercised due care
in the selection of the lessee, and
having inspected and edited the
script, had no reason to believe an
extemporaneous defamatory remark
would be made.”

Dorothy Dix Says—
Husbands and Wives With Similar
i Tastes Will Be Happiest
DEAR MISS DIX: I am very
much concerned over the problem of
my coming marriage. Being a very
quiet man, I enjoy spending my
evenings at home reading. My
prospective bride is a very gay
young girl who loves to go to par
ties and dances and places of
amusement. Will it be possible for
two people with such unlike natures
to have a happy and successful
marriage? C. K.
Answer—In marriage it is possible,
though highly unlikely, for the leop
ard to change its spots, especially
the female of the species. The male
animal is set in his ways and his
coloring and stays as he was.
We"have all seen girls who were
so changed by marriage that even
their own mothers scarcely knew
them. We have seen play girls set
tle down into the most domestic of
wives. We have seen extravagant
giris, who were clothes-mad. turn
into penny-pinchers and wearers of
hand-me-downs when it was their
own money they began spending.
And so on.
While it is true that these mira
cles do happen in domestic circles,
it seems to me that the chances
against them occurring are so great
that it is folly to tempt fate by
marrying some one who doesn't suit
you in the hope that you can change
him or her into something nearer
to your heart's desire. So if you want
a fireside companion who loves to
read, why not marry one instead of
a girl who considers every evening
wasted when she is not dancing at
a night club or going places and
seeing things?
The only happy marriages are
those in which husbands and wives
have the same tastes and like to do
the same things.
* * * *
DEAR MISS DIX: I am 18 and
in love with a man who is engaged
to another girl. He says he loves
me best and the only reason he
doesn't call his engagement off and
marry me is because he hasn't the
heart to break the news to his
fiancee. I am satisfied to go .with
him whenever he wants me to, but
I am slightly jealous if I see him
with his girl friend and have to
pretend I don’t know him. Please
advise me if I should keep on go
ing with him under these- terms.
PUZZLED.
Answer—Daughter, did your nurse
drop you on your head when you
were a baby or were you just bom
dumb? Otherwise, I can’t under
stand your infatuation for a man
who is giving you such a rotten
deal.
_
You say he won't break his en
gagement to the other girl because
he doesn’t want to hurt her feel
ings. Well, how about hurting your
feelings by inveigling you into a
hopeless love affair? And what do
you find to love and admire In a
man who is such a double-crosser
that he isn’t true to either one of
the girls with whom he professes
to be enamored? A long time ago
Josh Billings said that no man could
court two girls at the same time
and preserve a good average. That
still goes.
And what do you expect to get
out of a romance that has no end
ing in marriage? Can't even you
see that you are wasting your time
with this boy. that he is driving
away the men whose attentions
have intentions and that the in
evitable result will be that some day
you will find yourself an old maid?
