PLANE ACCIDENT IN

SHANGHAI

CRASHES INTO FENCE WHEN LANDING.

לן

PILOT AND MECHANIC UNINJURED.

The first aeroplane accident to occur since the arrival in Shanghai of the Bristol planes flown by No, A.C. Squad, Royal Flying Corps, took place on Friday morn ing at the Race Course just before 1 o'clock, when aeroplane No. J700-4 crashed into the Shanghai Lawn Bowls Clch fence while land- ing, Fortunately, neither the pilo: or his mechanic austained injury.

It appears that Flight Oficer Betts and . L. King, a mechanic, had been in the air for some while and were attempting to land when the pilot failed to clear the wooden and wire fence surrounding the Shanghai Lawn Bowls Club, greens. The under carriage struck the fence and the plane crashed, the nose striking the ground with consider. able force. The aluminium pro peller was badly twisted and the under carriage and centre section were almost completely wrecked. The wings were tora off the machine, the radiator and other parts were knocked off the engine, but the letter apparently was not greatly damaged. In fact, only the heavy parts of the machine were left intact. The wheels appeared; to be irreparably smashed, one being buckled up under the 'plane. The damage to the fence was pegligible.

Flying edrps" "officers and the mechanics, were quickly on scene and a derrick was erected to raise the 'plane, after which the ander carriage and other damaged parts were removed and conveyed to the hangers. The main body of the plane, containing the eng.ze, WES thea propelled by many mechanics to a repair shed, the whole of the operations being car- ried out expeditiously.

This is the first accident which has occurred to an aeroplane since the arrival in Shanghai of the Air Force. There was, however, mishap to a scaplane from HMS. Argus during the latter part of April last, when a large bombing 'plaze struck a Chinese junk on the Huangpu while rising from the river.

ANIMALS SUPERSEDED BY PLANTS!

DRUGGED CARROT,

Experiments, on plants supersed- ing vivisection was foreshadowed by Sir Jagadis C. Bose, the Indian scientist, in a lecture on ***The Mechanism of Life" in London

in

connection with the Inter- national Homeopathic Congress.

"The time will come," he said. "when most experiments will be. carried out on plaats. In the vass of animals, there is the factor of fright which completely upsete nor- mal reaction and destroys the value of much experiment. On a plant, we can make the reactions from drugs or any stimuli as natural as possilde,

This statement was warmly ap-

Is addition to its nervous system," the lecturer continued, a plant possesses a pulsation or heart beat which varies according to whether it is stimulated or deadened by drugs."

The lecturer showed on the screen the recorded normal pulsation of a carrot plant and the slower move, ment in the same plant after the carrot had been chloroformed; He showed similar results with celery,. which, he said, was very prone to fatigue.

In this way," he said, "tests. have been carried out with thou- sands of plants, and the value of many new drug extracts from plants have been tried out.cm other plants Thus, from the experiences of the plant, it might be possible to alleviate the sufferings of man."
