TESTSSHOW MANY BRAKESDEFGENT Inspection of Experts Re- veals Small Percentage of Cars Tried Satisfactory. Greater care should be taken by ‘Washington motorists in seelng to 1t that their brakes are in good condi- tion, judged by the results ot tests eonducted by the Bureau of Stand- ards yesterday on the Monument grounds. The tests will be concldued this afternoon, with free brake in- ®pection from 1 to 6 o'clock. Motorists wishing to take advan- tage of the free brake tests will enter the Monument grounds by the Kif- teenth street entrance and park on the roadway on the north side of the Monument, between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets. Yesterday's tests, according to tabulations made public by the bu- reau today, Snow that service brakes on 20 per cent of the 90 cars tested were poor and could not stop the ear in 50 feet or less. They num- bereh 18, while 29 cars, or 32 per cent of the c; tested. stopped ‘while going at a speed of 20 miles an hour in_between 10 and 50 feet, thereby falling into the “fair” clas- sification. Brakes on 28 cars were declared to be good, since they stopped the cars in between 30 and 40 feet at a 20-mile speed, while but 15 cars showed service brakes in excel- lent condition. stopping the car in 30 feet or less. The gereral average stop of all the service brakes tested yesterday was 40.3 feet, while the emergency brakes, which are supposed to take a firm ®Tip on the wheel and stop the car when the service brake fails to stop it. showed an average of .69 feet. ‘Emergency brakes on the cars tested, as a whole, showed them to be in poor condition. _Four-wheel brakes, tinction as to the hydraulic or me- chanically operated types, proved themselves vastly more efficient than the two-wheel brakes. The general average stop of four-wheel-brake cars ir. the tests yesterday was 20.3 feet, against 40.3 feet for two-wheel- brake cars. More than 50 per cent of the emer- gency brakes of the cars tested were marked poor. while but 20.5 were good and only 1.3 excellent. The tests are being conducted by mechan- ical enzineers of the bureau, headed by H. H. Allen, and the accuracy ot the cobservations is checked by an in- genius machine called the decelerom- eter, the invention of a Washington man. without dis- PILGRIM MONUMENT UNVEILED IN ENGLAND Bpot Where Departure Was Taken in 1609 Marked at Ceremony Largely Attended.

ARMY WORLD FLYERS HELD UP IN SCOTLAND BY BAD WEATHER (Continued from First Page.) can world girdlers hopped into boats and began a tour of the Scapa Flow, thé cold grave of Germany's onece powertul battle fieet, which was sunk here at the conclusion of the war. A mast still protrudes from the tossing waves here and there, marking the last resting place of a once proud Teuton warrior. Much time was spent examining the wreck of the Hindenberg, once the pride of the German empire. Its fun- nels, masts and part of its forward deck are above the surface. This afternoon the aviators, accompanied by officers from the Richmond, visited the picturesque little town of Kirk- wall, twelve miles from where their cruiser home is anchored. Arrival Is Thrilling. The arrival of the American flyers at Kirkwall yesterday afternoon was an event to thrill every American with a spark of patriotism smolder- ing in his breast. Long before they were expected to arrive, crowds be- gan assembling from every accessible point, and lined the seawall near the historic little capital of the Orkney Islands, eagerly watching.the sky for first sign of the air adventurers’ approach. Hours before the Richmond, sleek flagship of the cruiser squadron, had dropped anchor and officers and men were on deck with glasses When noon arrived, and no word had been received of the aviators the tension reached a point where no one seemed able to stay still, and the quarter deck was a veritable scens of nervous anxiety. Just Briet Mesaage. It was just exactly 3:40 o'clock i the afternéon that the first word of the flyers was Teceived aboard the Richmond to relieve the tension to some extent at least. It was just & brief message, that they had hopped off trom Brough at 10:20 o'clock in the morning. According to the closest calculations, it was figured they should certainly.have arrived before the messages, and the anxliety of the watchers on the Richmond was re- newed with added tension. Then, just a few minutes before 4 o'clock, they appeared out of the blue distance — three specks hurtling through space almost dead.on for the idly tossing_ cruiser. Closer and closer they drew, the noise of their motors rising in a symphonic cres- cendo from a faint hum to a swishing Toar as they finally swept over a hill southward from the Richmond in V- shaped formation at an altitude of about 1,000 feet Land in Perfect Line. Gracefully circling the mainland and the cruiser once, they broke formation with a precision that made one's nerves tingle with joy. and landed on the-tossing bosom of Hou- ton Bay in a perfect line. The water was rough, but they settled into the waves with as much ease as though it had been glassy calm. Lieut. Smith was the first to _alight; followed closely by Lieut. Wade and Lieut. Nelson. Taxying up to the buoys that had been made ready for them by Mal Davidson of the Army and Lieu Comdr. Leighton, aviation officer a tached to the Navy's light cruiser diviston, the aviators made their ships fast, and answered a hail from a motor sailer that had put out from Richmond' to offer any services po: sible. ‘The fiyers responded that be- fore going aboard the Richmond they would “do a little work." Accordingly they literally worked like Trojans. The Ritimond sent each ship 250 gallons of gasoline and a new supply of oil. For three hours the aviators and a number of ‘help- ers worked, making their planes ready for the hop that was scheduled for today, tightening here and ex- amining there. Finally they leaped into a walting barge from the cruiser and were hurried aboard, where they of their .?lh\lrllmlntl. and ' differ- ences in foreign exchange and the necessity for making quick starts has resulted in the flyers being unable to give detailed accounts of their ex- penditures. MEN IN GOOD SHAPE. Meet Kirkwall Dignitaries. Greeted by Cxtqwd. By the Associated Prese. KIRKWALL. Orkney Islands, Scot- land, July 31.—The United States Army world fiyers, who arrived here trom Brough, England, yesterday, have postponed their departure for Iceland until tomorrow because of adverse weather reports received from the patrol boats. The hop-off set for this morning was called off when the -patrolling destroyers reported a heavy fog and rain along the 500-mile course. Fog banks floated about the Ork- neys in the early hours this morning, and half-hourly messages from the destroyer Billingsley at Faro Islands, and the Reld. off the Iceland coast, re- ported the same conditions in their waters. The destroyeps reported the visibility as low as a half mile. The fog seemed spread over the entire route, and then u spasmodic rain set in. Lieut. Lowell H. Smith. the flight commander, waited until last minute before deciding to abandon the getaway, The hop is such a long one that it would require an early morning start to insure the arrival of the airplanes in time for them to fill their tanks in fair day- Tight. Alrmes 1n Good Shape. The atrmen were in excellent con- dition after yesterday's journey from Brough. They looked much better than when they arrived in London a fortnight ago. The aviators r mained on their planes until the oil and gasoline was changed and the machines cleaned. Then they were taken on board the U. 8. S. Richmond, where they met the provost of Kirk- wall ana otHers who rank as digni- taries in these island Invitations to be wined and dined by the town's officlals had to be re- fused by the airmen on account of lack of time. Instead of going ashore, they ate from the ship's larder a be- lated lunch. Then they retired to the hospital rooms on the Richmond, which have been assigned. for their pse while they remain heré. The Richmond will depart at the same time the aviators make their jump and again will meat them in Iceland. The cruiser .Raleigh is awaiting their arrival in Hornafjord and will take care of the alrmen until the Richmond arrives. Crowds Visit Craft. The townspeople and farmers from the many islands which make up the Orkney group had gathered for the arrival of the airmen and cheered them yesterday as they dropped anchors and made their machines fast to the buoys for the night. Crowds flocked aboard small craft and spent some time moving about the three planes. Then the island folk grad- ually returned to the shore and wend- ed their way homeward with plenty of photographs of “America’s Magel- lans,” but with their autograph books unsigned. The airmen were permitted to rest undisturbed last night, being safely guarded in their rooms by bluejack- ets, who were undér instructions to prevent the Invasion of wellwishers and souvenir hunters. NO WORD OF BRITON. Wireless Fails to Get Trace of Mac- Laren. ABOARD U. S. COAST GUARD CUT- TER ALGONQUIN, ATKA ISLAND, July 31.—Repeated efforts by wireless in all directions have falled to obtain any word of Maj. A. Stuart MacLaren since a party under his command ar- rived at Petropavlovsk, Kamchatka, last Thursday, on a oircumnavigation of the earth. ey After giving medical and dental at- tention to 85 Aleutian Island Indians at Nazan Harbor, Atka Islagd, Andreanof group, the Algonquin is én route to Kiska Island of the Rat Island group, between Atka and Attu Islands, where aid will be given to any persons in need. were recelved by Rear Admiral Ma- gruder. Took Time om Trip. It was a never-to-be-forgotten spectacle in that remote part of the world, the American planes bobbing up and down on the waves; their olive drab fuselages, vellow and _silver wings and red, white and blue tails flashing the challenge of the century across alien waters. Explaining the lateness of their arrival, the fiyers said they had taken their time from Brough in order to break in their new motors as carefully as possible. “Our trip was delightful” they agreed in unison. Heading inte a strong south wind. the pilots said they had throttled thelr motors down to one-half revo- lutions and had maintained that effi- clency the entire distance from Brough. There was fog at Brough when the pilots took the air, and at Aberdeen, Scotland, they were obliged to fly above the-clouds. - At Dunkans Bay, however, they emerged from the bank and experfenced clear weather the remainder of the trip. Next Hop 562 Miles. | None of the fiyers looked tired, hav- ing been In the air only § hours and 40 minutes, a short hop compared with some of the 16-hour grills they had faced earlier in -their. journey The mext hop, to Horna Fjordr, will measure 562 miles by airline. “Hav- ing prepared their motors even before they cooled, the pilots went to their staterooms and began talking of the trip. During the conversation Lieut. Nel. son dropped down in his bunk, fast asleep, a minute after he had mut- tered drowsily that his -motor had been “rough as hell.” but had shown “loads of power.” Lieut. Wade con- curred with Nelson, declaring that the vibration of his motor shook him “through and through” Several times, he declared, he looked back to make sure that the tall of his ship had not been shaken off. . Compasses Fail to Function. All of the planés except that of Lieut. Smith have been equipped with new English compasses, none of Which functioned satisfactorily, it was sald, because of the heavy jar- ring of the new motors. As a result the pilots depended upon their origi- nal American compasses, which had been installed- at the outset of their flight. = Harding and Ogden were the Jol- Mest of the fiyers and limited their ;| conversation to a discussion of how superfor American cigarettes are as compared with British “fags.” All the while the men were washing and shaving, preparatory to being the guests of Admiral Magruder at dinner. Immediately after dinner they hurried to “sick bay,” which had been especially prepared as their sleeping q ra. away -from the The present schedule calls for the arrival Saturday of the Algonquin at Attu Island, the farthest westerly point 6f the Aleutians, where a stop of two-or thres days will be made. Assistance also will be given to Mac- Laren and his companions, if they ar- rive during that period. Officers of the Algonquin believed that MacLaren has been delayed by high winds, heavy fogs and rough seas, 1 prevalent at’this timé"sr fhe “year.

WILMINGTON, N.

Since the beginning of the crusade to stop the slaughter of pedestrians by motorists, who were bagging from one to ‘three ‘tnnecent “jay walkers” 2 day, the cops have come to belleve that some one has wirtten a book on “How to Talk Back to Traffic Om- cern.” They have avrested something like 4,000 trafic viokators in the last three | months, and each has his answer on “Sassing” Police down pat, just as though learned 1t out of = book *" "¢ Md What the Book Saya.
