This is the first venture of its kind for the Ford Co.

Wants to Fly ‘Peace Plane’

ANCHESTER, N. H,, Sept. 8, (U. P.).—A flying plumbing salesman foday appealed to President Roosevelt for special permission to take his tiny plane, “Screwball No. 1,” on a trans-At-lantic “good will” flight to Europe. Newman (Pat) Johnson, Democratic son of Rep. Joshua L. Johnson (R. Wis.), wrote the President that “in spite of war, such a flight might have a psychological effect on the minds of European nations and it might give them a little different slant.”
