In Four Hours! Travel at Amazing Speed Will Be Without Sensation Of Motion, Say Experts Air travel is on the doorstep of a dream! Within a few years the pub lic will be reaping the benefits of jet propulsion, the latest flight miracle which cancels virtually ev ery complaint now held against air travel. Coronet magazine pictures a typical jet journey from Los An geles to New York a few years hence: The plane looks like a huge bullet with short, stubby wings attached. Nothing protrudes from its sleek form except the landing gear, which will be retracted in flight. No en gines or propellers are apparent, but on the trailing edges of each wing we can discern three round open ings, the jet tubes. On the leading edges there are intake ducts for the jet engines which are buried inside. Not a ripple mars the perfect sym metry of the sleek body. Climbing up the steps of the goad ing ramp, you wa!k into the spacious cylindrical cabin. Soon all 200 pas sengers are aboard, the stewardess closes the door, whirls several locks in place, sealing the cabin, and a swish of air can be heard as the ven tilating system is turned on. Sitting comfortably by a large double-paned window, you watch the three jet ex hausts as a muffled sound is heard and flame shoots out of the nearest one. The low rumbling roar of the jet increases in volume and the huge plane slowly moves forward, wind ing its way down the taxi lane to the runway. No Noise or Vibration. The pilot opens the throttles and the plane slowly accelerates. There is no quick surge of power but rath er an accumulation. Absolutely no vibration or noise is apparent as you watch the altimeter’s quick change. One altimeter shows the actual height of the plane above sea level and another indicates the “al titude” of the air inside the cabin. When the plane reaches 30,000 feet the cabin altitude is but 8,000—a comfortable, easily borne pressure. Because the thrust power of the jet increases with speed, it is possible to cut some of them off as high velocities are reached. It is serene in the beautifully ap pointed cabin. All is quiet, warm and comfortable. The outside air temperature gauge shows 45 de grees below zero, Fahrenheit. The air speed indicator stands at a steady 500 m.p.h. The bumps en dured at low altitudes have disap peared and there are no clouds or mountains to generate up and down air currents. Weather seldom climbs above 20,000 feet, so there is no danger or unpleasantness from that source. Dine in Comfort. For the next three and a half hours you cruise along, maintaining Naval P. O. Speeds Up Magazine Deliveries Aware that magazines and news papers are essential for the morale of men in forward areas, the navy is offsetting the curtailment of in dividual subscriptions by a bulk shipment plan. Since August 1, 1945, 15,000 magazine kits are being shipped weekly via fast surface mail, and air transport where available. Each kit contains 32 separate titles including most of America’s favor ite weeklies and monthlies. The new plan enables men to secure maga zines while the news is still fresh. They arrive in better time than in dividual subscriptions. The basis for the selection Is the result of research of the army spe cial service division, which has had more than two years experience in developing and distributing the same kits to army personnel over seas. Research on preferences, bal anced reading diet, availability of magazines, compositions of kits will continue. On July 1, 1945, the navy put in effect regulations restricting the mailing of newspapers and maga zines to navy, marine and coast guard personnel overseas. Since that date post offices have accepted only subscriptions that are requested by the addressee. Old subscriptions, however, will continue to be deliv ered to the addressee provided his address has not changed. If it has, he must notify publisher of new ad dress. This policy will relieve the gigantic strain on the fleet post of fices by releasing about 1,500 men from the servicing of second class mail. These men can now process first class mail, which has increased 108 per cent in the last year. "GAY GADGETS" Associated Newspapers—WNU Features.

Above, a new fashion in the cat world is displayed by this British feline, whose snow white fur is accented by a black “mask” and “gloves.” Below is Skippy, a Hollywood dog who has been retired on pension.

Barbier’s will, dis posing of an estate of $175,000, be queathed thd two grand to Skippy in return for “the dog’s comfort to me and my wife, Carrie.” It’s not WHAT you wear—but HOW you wear it, we always say.

Realizing you are hungry you proceed to the Dine- Aire compartment where you choose a table next to the large curved glass windows which form the side of the cabin. A pilot strolling by stops at your table. “We have just passed Dayton, Ohio,” he says, “we’ll be in New York in 55 min utes.” Looking out the window you see two more jets are turned off. Then you see the outside altimeter slow ly unwinding itself, and the long shallow a. ; ve to earth has begun. At the mod^.ate descent of 500 feet per minute, it will take about an hour to get down. And then sud denly below the wing tip is La Guar- dia Field. The clock on the instru ment panel shows you have been in the air five hours and ten minutes. And there you have it. Tomor row’s non-stop, cross-country jet flight. Not this year, nor next, nor perhaps the year after—but soon, engineers predict. “Tagging” atoms by using the cy clotron to make the atoms radio-ac tive is one of the newer tools of plant research. By tracing an irradiated or “tagged” chemical as it moves within the plant, scientists of the department of agriculture and the Ohio agricultural experiment sta tion think they will be able to ex plain some fundamental questions not answered yet. They hope for explanation of such puzzles as the formation and action of chlorophyll —the green coloring matter of plants—and how starch is formed from the carbon dioxide the plant draws from the air and water from the soil, and how and where starch changes to sugar. With the cyclotron machine. Dr. J. D. Sayre of the agricultural re search administration explains, it is possible to make many chemi cals temporarily radio-active in much the same way that radium is radio-active. A delicate laboratory tool, the Geiger Counter, is so sen sitive to radiations that it registers the presence of a single charged atom. This combination permits the tracing of tagged atoms as they move within a plant. Fortunately, even after irradiation, atoms still combine chemically in the same way that normal atoms do. Thus, if a scientist uses an irra diated chemical—phosphorus, for ex ample—in a solution around* the roots of a plant, "he can use the “counter” to measure the number of irradiated phosphorus atoms pass ing up the stem of the plant. By extending such studies of tagged atoms it should be possible to find out where in the stem—or leaves or fruit—of a plant the phosphorus ceases to move. This would point out an area worth study to discover whether the phosphorus had entered into a new chemical combination— and the nature of the new combina tion. A man wise in plant chemis try might then be able to answer some baffling questions. your swooping neckline blouses are copies of Victorian flower pins—like pansies and such.

The immense building will be big enough for football, baseball, polo, track meets or any other .ithletic event, such as the Olympic games. World fairs, inaugurals and military reviews can be staged in it. Artificial lighting will permit night events, while mechanical heating and cooling will maintain comfortable temperatures. The bnilding will be known as the National Memorial stadium. It will be located at Anacostia Park, on the eastern boundary of the district. Sen.
