JOHN GILBERT BICE A forerunner of attempts by Amer­ ican manufacturers to estabish a European market for American-built ■airplanes was seen in the shipment from Boston today of a Ford tri­ motor air transport for exhibition at the International Aircraft Show to be held at the Olympia Gardens in London. This is the first of the all-metal Ford planes ever sent to Europe and the European reaction to the type of air transport being adopted by a number of the' American passenger lines is being awaited with much in­ terest. Following exhibition at the London show, which probabaly will be the largest in the history pf avia­ tion, the big monoplane will be flown in England and on ’ the ‘other capitals, Berlin and Rome.

Dry Spell in England England Is Still Gripped By?Fear As Long Drought Continues AU Supplies Restricted By George Hambleton Canadian Press. Staff Correspon­ dent in a despatch from London .dat­ ed July 20th, says: England is still anxiously awaiting rain and while it is waiting it is get­ ting drier and drier. Pedestrians dn Paris streets yesterday danced with relief at a torrential fall of rain, but English municipalities are anx­ iously conserving such water sup­ plies as they have left in the hope of a rainy, day that does not come. Garden hoses, outdoor taps, and sprinklers have all been prohibited. A man who washed his motor lorry in the lake district today was promptly fined $5.0 0. The drought which has hit the Canadian wheat grower has also hit the English farmer. Farmers in Buckinghamshire say they need a fortnight’s continuous rain to restore crops to normal. Many textile mills in Yorkshire are scarcely able to keep going, due to lack of water.
