The convention committee yesterday advanced the convention dates aud selected the following officers: Dan W. Simms, Lafayette, temporary chairman aud Keynote orator; lew O'Bannon.

Because of fear that the machine might get out of control at turns, only 2,000 people were admitted to the test, but it had been well-etaged and millions of radio auditors were able to “view” the test vicariously. Von Opel, son of a leading automobile manufacturer, licfore lie started the ear broadcast a speech about it over the radio. He described the seven stages from the first test automobile to a "rockqt airplane." The Second stage of the seven. Von Opel said would be construction of a sniilar automobile capable of a speed of more than 260 miles an hour, and of a "rocket" motorcycle with a speed of nearly 140 miles an hour. It would be necessary. Von Opel said, to run the faster ‘‘rocket'’ car on rail-way-like tracks, because it would be too fast for roads "i ne third stage,” Von Opel narrated to his spellbound radio audience, “will be a rocket airplane capable of speeds of from 175 to 250 miles an hour. The fourth will be a plane constructed to explore unattained altitude in spac n . It will be equipped with special meteorological instrur.ierts. Fifth there will be a faster p'.ane manned by a within sealed chambers.

country is the plan announced recently by the transport company in conjunction with the Pennsylvania and Santa Fe railroads. New York passengers bound for San Francisco will leave New York by train at night, change to an airplane at dawn the next day at Columbus, 0.. fly to Wichita, Kas, changq to train again for another overnight trip to a point in New Mexico and then fly to California. Other routes via Chicago are contemplated when the service is extended. There had been numerous rumors that. Lindbergh was about to identify himself with a commercial enterprise but the colonel had refused to confirm them. The transport corporation obtained his services only this week after long negotiations. Airplane Stocks Soar New York, Mky 23—(U.R)—Col. Charles A. Lindbergh's connection witlf a commercial aviation enterprise was credited with touching off a boom in airplane stocks in Well street today. Wright motors and Curtiss both advanced rapidly at the opening of the New York stock exchange. The former went from $l6B a share to $176 a share iu the first hour, a gain of SB. Tile latter was up $9.50 a share at $l3O. On the curb market, stock of the Transcontinental Air Transport Cor., the company by which Lindbergh has been employed, opened with a sale of 17,700 shares at an increase over yesterday’s closing price of $6.12% a share. The early quotation today was $33.37% a share. Traders said the upward movement reflected the cnifidence of the financal world in Col. Lindbergh’s judgment in matters of aviation. New Corporation Formed St. Louis, Mo*"- May 23—(U.PJ—Formation of a SHK)<>,(NMT .eorporafloff 10 finance a national airplane passenger service, with St. Louis as the hub and with Colonel Charles A.
