This ‘would give the British monster con- aiderably more than twice the wing @pread of the NC planes, and three times their power. The hull of such @ plane would be as stout as that of @ small sea-going surface boat. The next large U. 8. Navy plane will not be a jump from a spread of 126 feet to 300 feet, but it will mark @ Gecided increase in size. The future programme of aviation in the navy was outlined as follows: L Development of planes, ob- servation balloons, &c., with the fleet. 2. Extensive experimentation in and out of the laboratory on both planes and lighter-than-air craft. 3. Development of dirigibles of the rigid type, as well as improve- ment in non-rigids. 4. Perfecting of a system of coastal aerial patrol. Attempts to tow the NC-1, after Lieut. Commander P. M. L. Bellinger and his crew left the plane, were largely responaible for its loss.

Then the key turned and they heard her head strike against the upper panel of the door, followed by hysterical shrieks. They opened the door, and the widow, attired only in a Giaphanous silken robe, staggered and fell. Oppenheim, the witnesses sald, was undisturbed by the commotion. He had stood stolidly facing his two brothers-in-law until Mrs. Kridel swooned, and then he rushed to her assistance and comforted her, The raiding party, satisfied, left the premises. Oppenheim gained considerable sporting fame as owner of the famous show horses Fairy Queen and Johnny Jones. He is also the, owrftr of sev- eral large downtown bulldings and is a heavy player in Wall Street, He retired from the law a@veral years ago and divided his attention between horse shows and the management of his real estate interests, - Mrs. Oppen- heim is also wealthy in her own name.
