French Ace of All Acss Pre dicts Dream Will Come True Boiore 19^5. SPEED TO <SE MADE IN AIR Future of Fast Travel Depends on Conquering Things in * Rarified Atmosphere. By fnlvrmnl 8fr?tfe. (Copyrfght, 1922, by Universal Service.) rAfelS, April 2f>.?What is the future of aviation? Will the air plane eventually replace the train, the steamship and the automo bile? Is the astonishing air de velopment of the past few years Hearing its .pnd? The automobile, *ay experts, is novr perfection? it cannot be, improved on. How pear is the airplane to aimilar triumph. Noted Men Reply. Those q ii cut Ion* were .the basis of an intjulry nwide by the Parts Bureau of U reversal flervloe among aviation experts in France, admittedly the country where air travel has reached Its highest stage of development. Replies of these men constitute a remarkable contribution to the scien tific research of modern times. ?Th?y Will be sent out exclusively by Uni versal Service. Among the contributors will be: Andre, Micholin, aeronautic enjrl Beer. Pierre Etienne Flandrln. Deputy of France, pilot and motor expert.

Charles Rlehct. famous scientist member of the French Academy. By DEPUTY BENE FONCK. Ace of All Aces. Before the year 1925 comes 1 ex pect to dine one evening In Paris and the riext evening in New York. If automobile progress was rapid, airplane progress has and will be ?till more rapid. Already tremendous strides have been- made, toward per fection since the war. Progress since 1918 has been more rapid if anything than progress between 1914 and 1918. If the war were to begin again now airplanes would end It within a few months. That is why air develop ment-Is so important to the security of France?of any nation. Airplanes, telegraphy and tele phony are welding the world and the peoples inhabiting It together until eventually there will be horn a new nationality?the nationality of the world. A citizen will then?and It Is a day our children will see?be able to travel from New York to Tokyo as easily as he now does from New York to Kansas City. Must Go I'p High. Tha future of air development for long-distance travel lies in the con quering of the upper atmosphere. I When we learn to send an airplane 60,000 feet into the air and keep it there we shall be able to travel at speeds now deemed Impossible. It is no exaggeration to say that large passenger airplanes may one day by attaining a sufficient altitude, where the air resistance is less, be able to travel between Paris and New York overnight at a speed of 400 to MM jniles an hour. " Naturally such enormous speeds ?ntail a multitude of problems. A method must be found first for per mitting pilot and passengers to live at rajrjfled altitudes. Airships must be constructed which will resist the tremsjidoug pressure caused by the awift rush thfougti the air. This Is by no means Impossible or even im pracUcable. The delicate structure of a bird's wings resists even greater speeds. Finally, a way must be found of adjusting carburetors and propellers so as to take account of the different stages of air resistance found at varying altitudes. Many engineers are now studying these problems, and there Is good prospect that solutions will before long be found* At any rate, I am convinced that the future lies with the heavier-than air machine apd not with the airship.

STRANGELY POISONED New York police are now engaged in solving the mys terious murder, by slow poisoning, of Mr. and Mrs. Fre mont M. Jackson, aged Brooklyn couple, found dead in their apartment. The poison which killed the couple, medical men declared at the autopsy, was "adminis tered in a manner unknown." Mothers Believed They Were Counted Off to Be Slain. LONDON, April 29.?Many Chlnw residents of the Tort of Hong Kong refused to fill up their census papers because they held the belief that the British authorities were taking the census for the purpose :?f pro curing a number of children to bury under the piers of a new bridye. Thus relates Mr. J. P. Lloyd, tl.e Hong Kong census officer. In his re port to his government. "The prevalence of a widespread belief among Chinese wom?n of the middle and lower classes in the al leged inhuman designs of the pub'.lc works department on infantile life undoubtedly affected the number of children of both' sexes recorded be tween the ages of four and ten years." says Lloyd'" report. "The rumor referred to is. in short, that the government intended to build a huge bridge across the har bor to Kowloon, resting on ninety nine piers, and that a certain num ber of young children of both sexes were required to be burled alive un der the foundations of each pier in order to Insure Its stability. "In the perverted view of* the' frightened mothers the very objeet of the census was to enable the gov ernment to make a suitable cl.oice of its victims.' In some districts moth era removed their children forcibly from school, while many children were locked Indoors for days and not allowed to go out. Newspapers, however, soon killed the rumor.' TOWNS HAVE SAME NAME. There are seventeen towns in Germany named Mirhelbaoh and seventy-one places listed In the postal directory as Neustadt. Nor is France much better off In this respect. ?t~r sr jm ?i DEATHS. GARNK.

MOONSHINE BLAMED FOR UNUSUAL WORDS Furfual and Other Poisons Held Responsible for Ad ventitia of Vessels. I By International ?w? Nerrir*. Old man Noah Webster would blink and quiver if he stepped out of his grave and cast a glimpse over words used by Volstead law officers describing the danger of bootleg j whisky. Dynamic moonshine liquor, by latest analyses, contains a lot of queer things that produce a lot of different effects on the human system. Prohibition Commissioner Haynes told about It recently. Ho ?aid: "Moonshine mash develops wild yeast and other fungi. "Fusil oil is found in large amounts in moonshine. "Many samples contain furfural, aldehydes and other poisons. "A large excess of acids also are found. "Aldehydes when Ingested produce aldehydes ismus, with a thickening of the adventitia of the vessels, and an increase of connective tissue be tween the lobes of the liver." Commissioner llaynes maintained; that his chemists were right. DA DID fo' Everybody 11 11 I III I What are your I linUlU interests in radio?'
