PLANE INSPECTED BEFORE TAKING OFF Statement Issued by Inquiry Into St. Catherines' Disaster Ottawa, Oct, 1,~~A preliminary report of the court of inquiry ls sued yesterday by the department of national defence outlined the main causes of the crash of the Travelafr monoplane in which six persons met. death at St, Cathar- ines, Ont, Sept. 14, as probable partial engine failure and the in- experience of the pilot in flying this particular type of aircraft, The board finds that the mono- plane had been inspected immedi- ately preceding the flight, Evidence collected by the court of inquiry indicated that Pilot », M. Bradfield, in charge of the plane at the time of the crash, had no previous flying experience on Travelair monoplanes and that he was unacquainted with the pe- cullarities of 'its operation, al- though he was an experiencea pi- lot on many other types of mae, chines, Examination of the wreckage by the court showed that the hori« zontal stabilizer was locked in "the position of maximum inel- dence,"" That is, it was locked in the position which tended to keep the tall off the ground, This position of the stabilizer, which Is adjustable from the cab- in, is employed in taking a ma- chine off the ground when it is de~ sirable to get the tall up as quick ly as possible, Ordinarily the re- verse position of the stabilizer, "the position of minimum Inci- dence," is used in landing. This position tends to hring the tafl down quickly for what is known as a "three-point landing." The finding of the stabilizer in the position of maximum incidence indicates that the pilot came down with his tall up, He attempted his forced landing on unfavorable ground and marks showed that af- ter turning over the machine slid for some 80 feet before coming to a stop when it burst into flames, A complete report of the finding and the recommendations of the court will be issued tomorrow, Those sitting on the court were: Flying Officer J, B, Holmes, Roy- al Canadian Air Force; F, G, M, Sparks, Flying Services, Ltd, La.

Sinclair, K.C, to the "challenge" contained in Premier Ferguson's speech at Ripley: The Liberal leader quoted the clause in his manifesto providing that a plebiscite should be held to dis- cover the feeling of the population as a whole as to what legislation was desired in respect of the restriction of the liquor traffic. He declared that such a consultation of the wishes of the people was in accord with true Liberal principles. It was upon the basis of the stand taken in that manifesto, he affirmed, that the issues of this election would befo ught, "Premier Ferguson is not going to determing our policy for us," sald Mr, Sinclair, amid applause, 'He already knows, from our mani- festo, that the Liberal policy is tu trust the people," "Grand Challenger" The speaker twitted the Premier on constituting himself "Grand Chal- lenger" of the Province, in addition to other offices, such as Prime Min- ister and Minister of Education, "Premier Ferguson," he continued, "has issued his manifesto, and have issued mine, So far as I am concerned I am not going to change the manifesto I have issued, The Pre. mier, experience has shown us, thinks but little of changing his manifesto, In the election of 1926 he found it convenient to delete the provisions for the sale of beer by the glass when public opinion appeared to be veers Ing againest such a proposal. He can change his policy between walls And, judging from his = address at Ripley, he thinks that I can, too, But [ am not that kind of a eLader, | have no changes to make in the ma. nifesto' I have issued, This election wil be fought out on those issucs contained in the Liberal manifesto" Laughter was evoked by the Liber. al Leader in his reference to the story of David and Goliath, He pic: tured Goliath as a person of much assurance flinging defiances and chal. lenges hither and thither, But Da. vid, he observed, had laid the giant low, with a single slingstone, In this Mo- .
