H. G. Fokker’s latest achievement in air- plane design, the largest passenger Plane ever projected on a production scale in the United States, was made last night by Herbert Reed, secretary-treasure: of the’ Fokker corporation, at international aeronautical exposition. The new plane will have a wing span of 100 feet, an overall length Of 65 feet, have a high speed of 145 miles an hour be capable of climb- ing 1,400 feet from the ground in the first minut nd will be able to attain a m: num altitude of 18,000 feet, according to Fokke It will be powered wit’: four 525 hersepower engines in double tan- dem. The cabin will be furnished like pullman cars, equippel with berths for night flying and-with lounge chairs for day flying. ‘our, compartments each containing eight chairs and two tables will compose the main day flying cabin. Although the exact route for the all-air transcontinental route, to be operated by Western Air Express and Universal Air lines, has not been determined, it is probable the route will extend from New York through Cleveland, Indianapolis, St. Louis and Kansas City, to Los Angeles. Thirty-six hour service be- tween Atlantic and Pacific coasts planned, with a. special line from New York to Chicago furnishing overnight service. “There is no doubt that, with the introduction of airplanes of the size and character of F. r’s new air liner, overnight service between New York and Chicago, and 36 hour serv- ice between the two coasts will soon become a reality,” Reed s: “We plan to speed up production on the out each month. Next fall should see actual operations on the new all- air route.” BISMARCK HAS COLD MARK OF UNITED STATES Two Inches of Snow Fall; Mis- souri Freezes; Northwest Is Frigid Bismarck was the coldest spot in the United States today when the mercury sank to 7 degrees below zero as two inches of snow fell Sat- urday and Sund: It was the first time that subzero temperatures had been here since last winter and followed the mildest November in the his- tory of the United States Weather bureau records here.

A- daily tarn-over of 6,000,000 shares, or more, fd longer staggers a _trader’s imagination. Within a single week, the Stock Exchange has watched this peak crossed many times.

Biologists, psychiatrists and psy- chologists are discovering more things each day ‘about children. - Theories are advanced, tried out and discarded. But the one waite that they all seem to agree upon is that too much mother is not good for the children. A child to be perfect, according to the newest theory, should have, not one mother, but several. These “mothers” should rotate, each be- ing able to give thecchild one thing in which she is scientifically perfect. In this way the child will have no dependency—no complexes, no inhibitions, no mother fixation; the latter we are told, is about the worst thing that can happen to anybody. T am on the side of these learned gentlemen to this extent—that I am convinced a good many misguided mothers are ruining children by kindnes: id weakening day by day to depend on themselves anywhere out of who has leans, Southwest—-Anna Chandler, Fay- etteville, Ark., coloratura soprano, and Patrick Henry Wilson, Galves- ton, Texas, baritone, Far west—lrene Kilgore, Oakland, Cal., coloratura soprano, and Don- ald Novis, Pasadena, Cal., tenor.

She trusts no one and refuses even a temporary separation from her off- spring. Mothers Blameless Now these mothers are not to blame. Their intentions are the finest in the world. But somewhere in generations past someone gave out the idea that a little child didn’t thrive quite so well out of his mother’s company, even for short Tiods. She also believes that tty or Tommy love her so well that she can’t bear to make them suffer, even for an hour or two. I shall try to break the news gently to these ladies that the rea- son their children scream thmselves blue in the face when they see her put her hat on is about one part love to 10 parts anger that their comfort is going to be interrupted. “Mother” is associated with con- tentment and comfort just as the man in the gray uniform associates himself in their minds with letters. Tommy wants her there so he can get at her if he needs her. He wants her there to think for him; he likes to know that somebody is around to whom he comes first; j he wants someone to be ready to kiss the sore place if he gets hurt; he wants petting. If she goes away all this is in- terrupted. He has to come second for a little while with somebody else —or even third. He knows he is not as important to anybody else as he is to his mother. Every mother should accustom her children to the sight of her leaving them when necessary. It is under- stood, of course, that she provides for their safety and comfort while she is gone.
