OF 1 TRAVEL

LONDON, May 8 (by mail).—Air
plane trips from England to America
are quite feasible by use of a ma
chine traveling night and day at the
rate of 100 miles per hour, declared
F. Handley Page, inventor of a typfe
of machine named for him, In a recent
statement to the representative of the
Daily Express.
“I have received a telegram from
Canada congratulating me on the con
struction of a machine to travel to
and from America,” continued the in
ventor, “but I have no such machine
on hand.
“The trip would be from Ireland to
New York, via Newfoundland, being
1700 miles. An alternative journey to
America would be via the Azores. On
the steady 100-mile-an-hour basis you
can compute all the long distance runs
that occur to you, including week-end
trips to China and Peru.
“For short distances, such as Lon
don to Manchester, 1 am not inclined [
to think that airplanes will take the
place of railways unless in case of a
pressing urgency. A comfortable first
class carriage of a fast train will con
tinue to be a more usual course of
travel. The airplane ha3 a great ad
vantage of speed, but it has a severe
handicap in the way of wind and al30
fog and other adverse climatic con
ditions.
“I do not think that after the war
wealthy men will take up private
motor cars. Few people can afford a
yacht, and a pleasure airplane would
be as expensive as a yacht.
“There is no such thing as perpet
ual safety in the air, and this is Sure
to have an effect on the average man.
I am speaking, of course, of the im
mediate future only. In the long re
sults of time there are infinite pos
sibilities in the evolution of aviation.
“There is an immediate future for
aircraft as aids to the world’s pros
perity, but what I call the tourist idea
of ‘ ’round the world in forty hours’
leads nowhere and means nothing.
“In the course of time bigger ma
chines will bo built with more power
ful engines that will carry as many
ful engines to direct them, but I can
see no immediate prospect of turning!
out airplanes that will carry as many_
passengers as ocean liners. We must
continue to beware of hot air in air
plane prophecies.”
TO INTRODUCE GOUTS IN
THE FAIRBANKS DISTRICT
Goat raising may be added to the
industries- of interior Alaska. Joseph
Kehoe, a pioneer Tanana valley far
mer, left there recently for the Out
side to purchase goats for shipment
to Fairbanks next spring. He said he
intended to study the goat question
and decide if possible which kind of
goat can best withstand the rigors of
a northern winter.
