PLANE CARRIE
4 MEN, TESTING
FORCOTTONTRIP
Harrold Bros., cotton warehouse
men, have agreed to see that a bale
of Sumter county cotton is provided
for transportation by airplane from
Souther Field to Lowell, Mass., there
to be made into cloth and returned
to Americus. This announcement
was made today as a deta'l in the ar
rangements for the trip which has
been authorized by the air service.
Frank P. Harrold and George A.
Plaire, of the Atlantic compress, vis
ited Souther Field Tuesday afternoon
and, after consultation with Colonel
Rader, it was decided to compress the
bale into such a shape and size as
to permit it being loaded into the
rear cockpit of a DeHaviland 4.
In order to test out the carrying
power of a DeHaviland, Lieut. Alfred
W. Vance, pilot, carried three passen
gers in a ship at Souther Field this
morning at one time. The passen
gers were Privcto? Ruircll and Milan
and Lieut. McMullen, aggregating
fcbout 450 pounds weight. This is
the first time an airplane of this na
ture has ever carried four persons
at one time. An altitude of 3,000
feet was quickly attained and the
ship remained up one half hour with
no difficulty experienced, demonstrat
ing that the ship can be successfully
used to carry a bale of cotton.
