E S T, the steam- ship Jacque Cartier reported to the | | air ministry at Paris that the plane's | position was £3 north latitude, 41:15 | west longitude, route 272. Since 5 | P m. the plane apparently had | traveled 715 miles southwestward, and was 2.090 miles from Paris. The route, 272, meant degrees | east of north, or a direction just | slightly north of due west | An'| signifying the | Paris dispatches said that pro-| gress of the plane toward its gan” exceeded even the most sanguine | hopes of the backers of the project. For much of the flight the two aviators had a tail wind of a velocity | | varying from 15 miles per hour. | Countering the disadvantage as re- £ards speed at which they mum' place Coste. was the advantage to be gained with dightening of his tre- mendous fuel load, a factor which | ordinarily would greatly accelerats | progress.

The plane rapidly gained altitude and soared westward over France and the British Isles and out to sea | where it stuck close to the ship lane | and was in constant touch with | £hipping. | In his efforts to complete a non- stop flight from Paris to New York | Coste is attempting what has never teen accomplished, although at- | |tempted often.
