Vance Breese, test flight engineer, handled the ship on its first flight. Armand Theibolt, who designed the plane, watched the flight. The plane is one at the largest and fastest designed and built for training. The AT-13 was designed to meet the necessity of training bombing crews as a unit. It provides places for bombardier, pilot, co-pilot, navigator-radio man, machine gunner, and camera man. The ship is equipped with all of the in- ^tomeiitAJifiedfid-to^sabls s -training crew to simulate all of the conditions of a long-range bombing attack. The army air forces ordered the AT-13 in quantity from the design on the drawing board and production will proceed after completion of flight testing.

Stuttering usually shows up as a speech defect, but one can have feet, hands or eyes that stutter, according to the Better Vision institute. Stuttering often is the*, result of a nervous. condition which is based upon a hereditary predisposition to emotional instability. Many persons whose eyes tend to squint can be classed as "stutterers," a fact that is recognized ~in an old French saying: "Squinters stammer with their eyes." In squint, a condition where the two eyes experience difficulty in focusing in unison, only one eye may be out of line, or the condition may alternate from eye to eye. Some squints are continuous, others are intermittent. When continuous, the squint is present for all distances, but when the squint is in termittent, the deviation is present either in near or far vision, but not in both. Chicago's Magneslnm Metal A great body of a potential ore of the strategic metal magnesium lies under Chicago, 111., it is pointed out by Henry W. Nichols, chief curator of geology at Field Museum of Natural History there. "This city is built upon a bed of dolomite (the carbonate of lime and magnesia) which is from 200 to 450 feet thick," he says. "Although this rock is mined elsewhere as a source of magnesium, such use of it here is unlikely, because large deposits are available in regions where land values are much lower. Too few analyses of the Chicago bed rock have been reported to determine its average value, but five analyses made on rock from our local quarries all show a content of magnesium metal between 12 and 13 per cent, or nearly the theoretical maximum for oreof this kind."

But the appointment was made only at the culmination of a bloodless revolution, when Mussolini's Fascists rharched upon Rome in October, 1922, and compelled the resignation of the cabinet then in power. The Fascists, though loyal to the throne, were in a position to have overturned it also if their demands for control of the government had not been granted. The Fascists were organized by Mussolini in 1919 ju a militant political party. Paint Aids Shipment of War Supplies Use of protective coatings made by the paint industry is credited with having largely made possible the increased use of fiber containers for shipping purposes in wartime, by helping to increase their resistance to moisture, which otherwise might penetrate them and be injurious to various types of products. - ""*r- May joy abide with yon each moment of every day during 'J 'fi 1943!
