MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, fEDEOR D, OREGON, FRIDAY, JUNE 16, 1933. PAfiE FIVE F TO SKY ROUTES PARI (AP) Speed Is a major object In pi "as for a suooeuor to the tire-wrecked French liner AtlanU,qua on the ship-lame to South America. Eugene Prot, French minister of merchant marine, has announced that Internal combustion motors and new designs for the hull are being studied In an effort to build a vessel swift enough to compete against the growing competition of the airplane. "Before ten years," he predicted, "trans-oceanic postal service will be made regularly by airplanes " His study of the question, M. Prot said, shows that a liner of 28,000 to 30,000 tons would be sufficiently large for the service between Prance and South America, providing It was fast enough, safe and steads . The At lantlque was a 40,000-ton ahlp. "Speed Is the essenttsl qusllty to day on laud, on water and In the air." M. Prot said. "Soon liners will have to combat the competition of airplanes. If ships wish to keep their piece In 'the world's passenger traffic they must achieve Increas ingly greater speed."' As for the hull of the burned At lantlque, now a subject of dispute between the owners and the Insurers, p. Oayral, a French engineer, sug gests that It be anchored In the North Atlantic halfway between Cherbourg and New York as a mid ocean airdrome for trans-Atlantic flights. a paralytic stroke June 6. la slightly Improved.
