—Aviation— PADDLES MAY DRIVE PLANES AT HIGHSPEED Inventor Claims ‘Steamboat’ Idea to Hurtle Machines 15 Miles a Minute. Bn United Press PARIS, July 13.—While German inventors are seeking the future ot aviation in "rocket” types, propelled by high explosives, and with England Spain vieing with each other in their efforts to develop a satisfactory ‘helicopter,’ a young French inventor has had an initial—albeit experimental —success with anew type of airplane. His name is Chappedelaine and he has dubbed his machine the ‘gyroptere.’ Rotary Paddle System Technicians at first immensely were amused by Chappedelaine’s idea, but after seeing it in operation ' in his workshop have decided that it has possibilities that are not to be ignored. A ... The outstanding feature is that the machine has no propellers o! the 'blade type. Instead, on both sides of the cabin are built two cages containing a rotary paddle system which, equipped with controllable exhausts, seizes the air currents in much the same manner as Fulton’s steamei shipped the waters of the Hudson. The power is to be obtained from engines located within the gyroptere and, therefore, at all times under the control of the pilot or mc--1 ehanic. 15 Miles a Minute , In his laboratory model, which is only about twenty inches long and half as wide, M. Chappedelaine is using ordinary electric-light current, and has been able to send his . machine to the ceiling, under perfect control, at an amazing speed. If funds can be obtained, says Chappedelaine, it should be possible to build a practical machine, equipped with light motors up to 500 horsepower, and capable of sustained flight at a speed of fifteen miles per minute, bringing Paris within three hours of New York. Planes to Be Targets JBu United Press LONDON, July 13.—Watchet, a town in Somerset, England, will be the scene this year of extensive gunnery training against aircraft.
