AVIATION EXPERTS WARRING ON MOISE Tussle to Vamish Roar of Powerful Notors London, Sept. 27 M—Aeronautic- al engineers the world over are working long hours day and night to solve one of the greatest problems of commercial aviation—noise. The carrying of passengers by air, they believe, will never be a complete suocess until the incessant throbbing and pounding of the great motors is eliminated. Engineers are only beginning to approach a solution of the problem. Their difficuity consists in negativ- ing the discomfort to passengers of traveling in close proximity to two or three engines aggregating from 400 horsepower to 1,300 horsepower roaring away at the rate of from 4.000 to 5,000 explosions a minute. These engines, moreover, are rigid- ly connected to the fuselage of the airplane by materils which are highly sound-conducting. The stay- wires, wings and cabin walls are of #o0od resonant material. The cabin itself reverberates and becomes a sound box. All these points create considerable difficuity. With regard to the engines, if the frequencies of the wotor ex- hausts are not exactly alike, beats results which impinge unpleasantly upon the passengers’ ears. The pro- peller itself is a considerable source of nolse and its own peculiar sound, like that of the motor -exhaust, is rich in harmonics, actually preduc- ing a complete series. BSubstitution of metal for wooden propellers has climinated some noise hecause wooden screws were more subject to slight bending known as flexual vi- bration. One of the first means experts are employing to lessen noise is to change the construction of the cab- ins. It is most important to make the walls of the cabin nonflexible, so that they cannot vibrate. Bome cabins are now being lined with bal- sam wool and the floors are being covered with carpefs. The Imperial Airways company, which operates a service between J.ondon and the continent, provides its passengers with a cotton wool plug for their ears which has been found quite effective in absorbing sounds of high frequency. gineers are trying to elimi- a frultful source of uneasi- ~ss to the inexperienced traveler— roduction of heat and its varia- tion. A passenger soon gets ac- customed to constant rhythmic noise and loses thought of danger. But when the engines get out of step with each other and vary their beats from, say, one in five seconds to two a second, the passenger at once notices the change and hecomes alarmed. Expert mechanics are now working on this problem of syn- chronizing motors. Considerable attention has been devoted to silencing the engine ex- haust on airplanes. Some progress has been made, but no silencer has come into effective use hecause of the increase of weight involved. Goose Flesh MORNINGS ARE HERE ! NOW— while there is time— CALL 904 We'll call VICE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEES ARE CONTINUING THEIR CAMPAIGN TALKS Curtis to Speak Twice Daily . in Oklahoma— Crowd Cheers as He Op- poses “Any State Going Into Whiskey Business”. En Route With Senator Curtis in Oklahoma, S8ept. 27 (P —Senator Curtis, the republican vice presiden- tial nomince, came into Oklahoma today, a state which cast its only ballot for him for president at the republican national convention, and started a three day visit which is to carry him into every section. The state tour, beginning almost at sunup today with an appearance at Miami where the Indians ar- ranged a meeting, is a whirling fin- ish to & whirlwind campaign of the west begun two wecks ago by the veteran campaigner. No less than two speeches a day are on the program of the senator during his whirl about this state. After going to Miami from Afton early today he moves on to Tulsa for an early afternoon meeting and then motors to Okmuigee for u speech tonight. Rep. Purnell of Indiana, ranking republican on the house agricultural committee has been sent on here by the republican national committee to assist the senator at out of doors meetings. Curtis is treating a raw throat, irritated by constant speak- ing on his way westward last week, and is under doctors orders not to speak in the open air. Before a crowd which jammed in- to every bit of avaiable space in the' massive Shrine Mosque at Springfield, Mo., last night the nom- inee pressed the republican cam- paign. advocating & higher pro- tective tariff and lauding Herbert Hoover. The crowd cheered wildly his declaration that he “personally” was opposed to “any state going into the whiskey business.” X Crowds also stood on the outside of the building and listened to the adress from loud speakers and the radio carried it over the state from Station WOS at Jefferson City. Within twelve hours of the dgpar- ture of Senator Curtis from Spring- field Benator Robinson, the demo- cratic vice presidential candidate, was due in the city to deliver an ad- dress tonight. BOY RIDES ON TRUCK FRONT William K. Heckman of 149 Kensington avenue reported to Of- ticer John M. Liebler last evening that while he was driving west on Commercial street someone shouted ! that there was a boy on his truck. The lad, who was on the front of the truck. unknown to Heckman, jumped off and ran away.

Robinson 8pecial Car, En Route to Springfield, Mo, Sept. 27 @— Back in campaign harness afjer a brief period of rest Senator Joe Robinson teday carried the demg- cratic banner toward Missouri where a brisk fight is under way by both parties for the state's 18 electoral votes. The state has been put down by democratic leaders in the column of those they expect to carry and to give additional punch to the fight now in progress, the vice presiden- tial nominee has been summoned to rake the enemy camp with three verbal broadsides to be fired on successive nights at Springfield. i Kansas City and Columbia. In opeming his attack at Spring field tonight the senator has indi cated that he will devote a part ot his time to & review of the record of Governor 8mith on legislature af- fecting women. While resting in the Ozark Mountains near Hot Springs, Ark., the first part of the week, he spent some time collecting information on the subject and it is wmore than probable that he will touch upon it frequently during his trip through the west.

Senator Robinson left Little Rock last night for Springfield. His schedule called for several brief stops along the route and words reached him that he could look for crowds to greet him along the way. On his western trip which will carry him to the Pacific coast and thence to the farming sections of the central west, the senator will be accompanied by Mrs. Robinson who made the 8,005 mile trip through the south, just completed last week. The senator cxpects to be met in Springfield by Donald McGregor, his publicity mnager who left after the Paducah, K. speech last Fri- day night for New York to report to national headquarters as to condi- tions in the south.
