PLANES WITH SIX ENGINES TALKED BY ALLISON AIDS

Experiments Sidetracked as Powers Concentrate On Production.

By LEONARD H. ENGEL

(Cobnrright, 1839, by Science Service) WASHINGTON, June 13.—Ther are not likely to be any breath-tak-ing jumps in airplane motor powers in the next few years. There will be no completely new designs. Blame it on Hitler. Because the German air program has scared the other powers into production, the fundamental, longterm research needed now to double engine powers, an accomplishment of the last few years, is not going to be done. There are just not enough

Whether this feeling persists will depend a good deal on the success of the new pump-priming program which Administration leaders are said to be developing. If. a year in advance of the campaign, half the voters already think business would be better under a Republican, a downswing in the business cycle through 1940 would seriously aggravate the problems of the Democratic party. An overwhelming proportion of Republican voters think business would be better under a Republican, while a substantial number of Democrats think it would be | worse.
