They are tremendous rotatory storms of wind resembling the hurricanes of the West Indies in general character- istics, but with their main features more’ strongly marked. The storm centers in a small aréa and drives forward at a speed of twelve mile an hour or over, the storm itself whirling about the center of the de- pression in which the barometer readings frequently go as low as 23, inches, Changes in pressure are very rapid, frequgntly two or three inches in_a hour.

These storms have their origin in 1 ocean east of China, in the vicinity of Formosa and the northern Philip- pine Islands, and usually proceed from east northeast tow 1w southwest.

Of course, in the event of a storm occurring during the day, it would be possible for the might to fly away from the area over which the storm is sched- uled to pass.

Standardized of signals are in use in all ports where the air- planes will stop, and in addition, large floats are available in case of accident, which may be towed out at once to the rescue of any plane. Also landing buoys have been provided in the form of steel drums painted yel- low, attached to 500-pound anchors in sheltered areas of each harbor. Get Supplies at Shanghal. Miscellaneous supplies will be found at Shankhail for the use of the flight, but no major supplies, such as engines and other large parts now available until the flight reaches Calcutta. There are seven major depots on the complete route of the world flight and eleven minor depots, making a total of eingteen, an aver- age of 1,500 miles apart, 8o that the flight is well taken care of as re- gards spare parts and supplies to meet all emergencles which could be foreseen.

PARIS, May 31.—The spirit of sac- rifice to the public weal manifested by Edouard Herriot, mayor of Lyons and potential premier of France, will require him, if he becomes head of the cabinet, to hold down at least #ix different offices at the same time. They are municipal councilor and ayor of Lyons, member of the ge council of the phone depart- ment, deputy, leader of the Radical party and premier of France. For_simultaneous office holdings he will beat the record of his immedi- ate predecessor, M. Poincare, who.is merely senator, minister,, 'premier member of the general council of the Meusc department and a municipal councilor of Santigny. The fact that M. Poincare is not the official leader of any party places him one office behind M. Herriot.
