The landing completed the flight of about 1,700 miles from St. Louis, Senegal, near the far-eastern tip of Africa. The flight took 20 hours and 12 minutes, more than one hour longer than the aviators expected. Near the middle of the journey, the cabin of the plane nearly filled with rain which fell during a storm through which they passed. B THREE ENTER HOSPITAL James C.

IN MOTORS NOT ‘ USING GASOLINE ;cion stRiLiARY By DAVID J. WILKIE (A. P. Staff Writer) DETROIT, May 13.—An automo- bile motor without spark plugs, carburetor or magneto at one of the naticnal automobile shows, attracted considerable attention. Its inventor predicted it would some day provide the power plant for buses, trucks, and tractors. While there has been much ex- perimentation with Diesel type mo- tors in the United States, and one engineer already has constructed one for use in airplanes, Europe has really made more progress in the development of éngines powered by fuel other than gasoline. In Europe, excepting in Russia or Rumania, there is little or no oil and all gasoline must be imported —at a cost twice as much as in America.
