Newspaper Page TextPAGE SIX TO BUILD GIANT PLANE HERE AT PRIVATE PLANT I {Continued from page 1) the planes in large numbers. Wide Endorsement. Mr. Brennen’s invention has re ceived widespread endorsement. Col onel Rader, commander at Souther Field until Friday, went to head quarters from the inventors with a lengthy approval of it and the recom mendation that its erection by private capjtal on the government field here be permitted. The application and endorsement, however, are arid to have been rather contemptuously received in Washington. Mr. Brennan contemplates the erec tion of a building probably 125 by 165 feet to house the plant for the construction of the first plane, pro-j vidlng he is successful in closing up the final details. He also contem plates the erection of a small plant for the reduction of the bauxite by electricity and comuleting the refin ing of the aluminum ready for use. It is believed the ouilding of the plants and the construction of. the first plane will cost only $1,000,000, and it is contemplated to use the ad ditional capital in construction of ad du.onal planes in large numbers for commercial use. Mr. Brennan stated in an inter view a few days ago that it would re quire 200 men working in three shifts 24 hours per day from Jan. 1 to July 4 to complete the first plane to a stage ready for launching.

Tiedeman, of the United States department of public health, who has been in charge of the anti-malarial drainage work here since its inception nearly two years ago, yesterday completed his final report to the government, marking the end of the government work here under the present arrangement. Next j week he and his family will leave for; a two weeks’ vacation trip, following I which he will return to Americus to I await government orders. “I do not know just what my • work will be from this time on,” said Lieut. Tiedemann Saturday. “I ex pect to be engaged in drainage sup ervision over a considerable area of South Georgia, and it is probable I will make my headquarters else where, possibly Thomasville, where I will be more centrally located with relation to my work. “I believe the government will make some sort of a proposition to the city and county here to carry on] and maintain the mosquito eradica tion work, which is so important to health. I look for the government to offer to furnish supervision for the work if carried on locally. “I think the people realize what a j great benefit mosquito eradication has i been to this community. There have been a few mosquitoes present this fall, but that has been because the work was not carried on this fall, ex cept on a comparatively small scale. Last year we had $40,000 to spend; this year, from July 1 till now we had to do with $2,000, which was put up locally. As a result we couldn’t erad icate all of the mosquitoes.” Organization Here Os Band Proposed A movement has been inaugurated I by Secretary Perkins, of the Cham , ber of Commerce, and Rev. Silas Johnson, scoutmaster of the Ameri cus troop of boy scouts, for the or ganization here of a band, and The Times-Recorder was asked to request all persons interested in becoming members of such an organization, or ] who know of persons who might be interested, to register at the Cham ber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce now owns a number of band instruy ments. It is also part of the plan that a competent bandmaster be em ployed as instructor. Several of the scouts have expressed a desire to take band instruction. It is planned to organipe sometime this week. Dooly To Elect New County Commissioners VIENNA, Nov.

Switchboard Accident Puts City in Darkness ■■■ All Americus— business and resi dence districts—except the Windsor block, Planters bank building and Sumter hotel which have their own light and power plants, was jhrown into darkness Saturday evening just as night came on by the burning out of a switchboard at the electric power plant. The power remained off for nearly two hours, stopping all business in the stores, putting the moving picture theater out of business for that length of time, and otherwise demoralizing ac tivities about the city. And to add to the discomforts of .the darkened city streets, a drizzle fell a considerable portion of the l time, occasionally becoming a down : pour. ’ “It was one of those accidents that can’t be foreseen and can’t be helped—they happen sometimes to the biggest plants,” said Manager Joe Johnson of the Americus Light ing company.
