A veritable monster of the air, the Gorky has a wing spread of 64 meters, is 35 meters in length and Is powered by eight motors, capable of driving it at a top speed of 240 hilometers per hour. Its cruising, or normal speed, will be’ 220 kilo meters. Construction Reported To the Russian populace the Gor Iry has the place in aviation that leprostroy does among the hydro electric projects. K'or months each stage of its manufacture has been reported in the Soviet press. And when, a few days ago, the giant plane was wheeled from its hangar to have its motors tested, thV event rated columns. This sense of pride arises not only from the fact that the So viet " government has built the world's largest plane entirely of Soviet materials and by Soviet technical skill. There also is a more personal reason. Thousands of Soviet citizen* feel a sense of ownership in this mechanical mar vel, for it was financed by their own money. The campaign for funds to build the jplane was start ed by Soviet newspaper* on the 40th anniversary of Gorky’* first GOLDEN GATE HOTEL » Rooms and Bath » 4 Si OMR, / ALASKA \ - STATIONERY - —SPECIAL— Cascade Villum I • 7« FLAT SHEETS AND 50 ENVELOPES jj BOTH FOR *1.00 U A LOMENIftOTHERS DRUG STORE - Joooooaxxxy^.xxx>DcocooQ^aococcococ<xoocaCK>xxx)Cooroc*XAXka.>.^rw w&aocxxxxx>3Gocx)Ooc<KCKKXxtt NOME MACHINE SHOP (SUCCESSOR TO W.
