It may fairly bo said the di(ll eulties. while of course not insurmouut able, are sufficient, and sufficiently e?* tuhHshed, to demonstrate that regular passenger service is still a long way ahead. The weaknesses may be worked out in two or three years, which would be an amazingly abort time, but* the probabilities would not seem to warrant any immediate hope of regular service. Only those who have crossed the ocean can grasp the magnitude of the mechani cal requirements. The final, ocean plane will probably show as marked a difference from the best planes of today as nn ocean stcninabip differs from a river steamboat of tlfe best class.
