After refueling, the craft took off for its destination at; New York, where it landed at 10 the following morning, beating the Europa’s time for mail delivery by 30| hours. The feat is all the more remarkable as the Europa is the fastest liner afloat, with a time record from Europe of 4 days, 17 hou nd 6 minutes. The smooth: with which the operation was car.| ried to a successful conclusion makes it reasonable to suppose that the oft-propounded scheme for a string of floating islands across the Atlentic, as service stations for transjoceanic mail planes, is not such a wild dream as was at one time imagines. v DEBTORS ARE PUT T0 WORK | T0 PAY BILLS, PARKER PENS AT THE NUGGET SHOP dur- wandered over to the other side ot he room and mechanically began 0 rearrange magazines on the top of a table.
