28. P) Rates on fir poles and wooden piling, single and mutiple carloads from Oregon points to California destinations, have not been unreasonable in the past, the interstate commerce commission declared today, but should be revised for the future. The commission said that rntes have been higher than charges on lumber for a number of years and that this had led to a eompln.int that rates were iii-e judicial and unjust; The commission added that ratfcs were from 5.5 cents to 8.5 cents bi excess of corresponling fir lumber charges, and said that it would issue an order in the near future eliminating the differential between poles and piling rates and those on lumber.

I'd rather lose sleep by Ntttyinjt up late, any thaie. It is far more festive to drive until dawn and then' sleep until noon, as well as being more efficient. "Thu Oidsniobile is a wonderful car for thewe long nifjht drives. It is extraordinarily easy to handle and it has lotn of little detaiU that make for comfort. The first thing that took my eye, for instance, was the intelligent shaping of the cushions.

"The convenience of the controls also add to driviug comfort, everything necessary being in easy reach.

The broad, foot-fitting accelerator pednl prevents cramps by allowing the position of the right foot to be changed whenever desirous some thing which a small accelerator pedal des not, permit. And the soft green lights used on the instrument panel further enhance night driving comfort.

This plane, Bays the inventor, is not contrary to the known prin ciples or aviation, for he uses bot bposltlve and negative pres sures, but It Is revolutionary in its application.

This is also the only airplane ever constructed that uses its fuselage as a lifting surface. Instead of. the wings extending to the side of the craft run the length of, the body, making tne snip only 18 tent in width Its widest point. The fuselage, if one could call It that, asts as the keel of a yacht, tapering down to an edge at the bottom and sloping up so that it will act as a lifting surface, aa well as a stabilizer. This ship has 360 square feet of lifting surface tand 1b 26 feet long.

Its weight is placed at 1200 pounds, giving it a weight of 3V4 pounds per square foot. The plane Is streamlined at the front and Is powered by an OX5 Curtis engine, 90 hp, Almlann tlthlne- nf 'rsnvarnmAnt specifications is used throughout in tne construction of the ship. Much expert welding has been done in its building. One of Mr. Scroggs most revolutionary ideas Is the use of a split rudder, which has four square feet of surface and he says he can turn the plane, which baa a stirr skid, on a dime.

There are 25 square feet of Bur-face on his elevators. As has been said before, Mr. Scroggs Is no tan aviator. He has studied airplane construction for the last 20 years and he Is a firm believer in bis new ship, although he has had absolutely uo encour agement from aeronautical exports. He believes that be has something that will conserve gasoline, will be able to land In a much smaller space, and will be much safer than the present day ship, for he says that it cannot go into a tall spin or side slip.

His working models, from six Inches to six feet, have convinced him of that. All his plans and specifications have been patented, and finally tbe "iABt Laugh" Is ready to take Its ground teals. A few bave already been made and It did everything that was expected. A few changes will have to be made before taking it into the air. One Is that more and larger windows will have to be fixed in the plane for at present the pilot's visibility is poor.

There have been many Ideas advanced on the speed at which the plane would take off. Mr. Scrogjrs believes that It will leave the ground at about 20 miles an hour and land at about the same speed. Mr. bcroggs has been aasisled In his work by Claude OardiiiT and I).

A. Newman, mechanics, both of Eugene, and he gives much credit to them for their good work. Much experimentation will have to be made before Mr. Scroggs Intends to take the plane from the ground. He admits It would be utterly foollBh to try to fly It now, for he nor Anyone olno knows how the ship would handle.

He plans to put In about 60 hours on the ground before giving his plane its initial hop. That Mr. Scroggs knows his aviation principles and can apply them Is evident by the fluency with which he expounds them. He admits that be can convince nono ALWAYS KEEPS IT ON HAND Lydia E.
