London, Oct. 16.--The action of the Air Board of Canada in inviting British aircraft constructors to ten- der for the supply of flying boats, aeroplanes and seaplanes is a most welcome event in the history of Brit- ish aeronautics. It proves that one British government at least is tak- ing a sane yet enterprising view of the possibilities of aerial transport. In fact, it would hardly be too much to say that in this respect the Do- minion is setting a good example to the world. One notes that the air board proposes to confine its activi- ties at present to two operations, namely, forest protection and the surveying and development of com- paratively unexplored land. These are functions of a government with which no one can quarrel. The car- riage of mails is also a government concern, but it seems wise to offer a mail contract to a transport com-' pany and leave it to the contractor to discover and purchase the most suit- able type of aircraft. It would be unwise, as the government of India has already decided, to let a manu- facturing firm contract for the car- riage of mails. The effect of Canada's action upon manufacturing firms ight to prove very stimulating at a time when they badly need some encouragement. The prospect of securing large orders for an approved type of machine is far more. tempting than the possibility of winning comparatively inadequate money prizes in the air ministry com- - "Well, I ha are playing out.

The trials for the prizes totalling £64,000 instituted by the air minis- try have been dragging out a very weary length throughout August and September. First came the tests for i large and small 'aeroplanes on Mar- | tlesham Heath, and these have been followed by the tests for amhibian | seaplanes at Felixtowe. The wretch- | ed weather which England has en- dured this summer has prolonged the | agony, and made it. vefy difficult for the public and the presg to take an intelligent interest in the events. The most ingenious reporter could not twist the happenings into anything remotely resembling a "stunt"---and the cheap press of London feeds its readers on stunts and nothing else. But even the student of aeronautics has not been much edified. Three machines were entered for the "Large" class' and five for the "Small." We may perhaps be grate- | ful for an official definition of a | "large" aeroplane, namely one which | carries more than six persons. The | three large entrants were a Vickers | Vimy Commercial with two Rolls | Eagle engines, a Handley Page "W§" with two Napier Lions, and a Den- taur with two 160 Beardmore en- gines. The last-named was not quali- | fied for a prize, but went through the | tests and proved itself a sound com-g mercial proposition.

Baking is pure, efficient and prepared with choice ideal conditions and est disaster that has yet happened in civil flying in Britain. The great Handley Page '"W8" proved to be the fastest machine at Martlesham, with a high speed of 119 m.o.h,, and in most respects its performance was very good, though its low speed of 66 m.p.h. was the least satisfactory recorded. It'seems rather a pity that the Bristol people did not enter their Pullman Triplane, but though it is undoubtedly a very fine commercial machine, it may not have had much chance of shining in that particular competition. Instead, the firm had in a small machine with a Puma engine. Of the small machine, the Avro Triplane with 240 Puma engine was the most disappointing, but again it may be said that competitions do not prove anything. When a transport{ company wants an aeroplane which will carry four passengers 85 miles in an/hour on 12 gallons of petrol it may do worse than purchase a ma- chine of this type. The best speed range shown in this competition was that of the Westland Limousine, a six-passenger machine with a Napier Lion engine. We are likely to hear more of this type in the near future. Its high speed was 118 and its low speed was 46 m.p.h. The Sopwith Antelope also did very well, and was the only competitor to fulfil the re-« quirement of a high speed over a 100 (viz. 110 m.p.h.) and a low speed under 45 (viz. 43 m.p.h.) Alas, the Sopwith firm has now gone into liqui- dation--of which more anon, The allotment of the prize money will be announced later. The Amphibian Tests. It was very wise of the air minis- try to insist that the seaplanes which entered for the competition should; | be amphibians. There are four coms | petitors at Felixstowe, a Vickers Vik«| Ing with Napier Lion, a Supermatine with Rolls 1p, a Saunders Kiiti- wake, a Fairey float seaplane with a "angie. All the first The Viking has land its high speed of 121 m.p.h. shows pit to be the fastest machine in any of the classes. It is arranged to carry four passengers. It is a thousand pities that the Beardmore "W.B.5" could not be got ready in time to compete, for this boat 'with its four 185 h.p. Beardmore engines instal- led in the hull should, if it come¥ up to expectatibns, prove a great ad- vance on all existing types of ecom- mercial aircraft. But after all, the Alula and Handley Page wings may soon revolutionize the whole aeronau- tical situation, angemake the record of Martlesham an@i Felixstone just so much waste paper. The worst thing that can be said about some people is they are never seen at their best--if they have such a thing. | The wife governs best who doesn't let her husband know she's trying. vat vat i TSA) nn rrr rrr rrr or ee rr rr roe ANCHOR ANCHOR-DON AJ ORION REGULAR SERVicks MON Oct. 16INov. 20 Oct. 30 PORTLAND --~G: LASGOW (CHRISTMAS SAILING) Dec. turnia N.
