Shriners for Speed

Between the airplane speed records of the U. S. (266.6 m. p. h.) and Great Britain (408.8 m. p. h.) lies a difference of 142 m. p. h. To erase that difference three Cleveland Shriners-Robert A. Bishop, Morris E. Miller, Ralph K. Rex- last week undertook establishment of a $16,000,000 foundation which they incorporated in Ohio. The money is to be raised over a five-year period. Each of the 8,000,000 Masons in the U. S. will be asked for $2. A technical advisory committee will be chosen, the "best available pilot" selected to conduct experiments.
