DRAMA OF TRANSPORTATION

THURSDAY,- MARCH-17-1938.

HAPPENINGS AS SEEN BY THE CAMERA'S EYE

One of the most dramatio exhibits af the New York World's Fair next year wil be the history of transportation, from the time of the cave man through the ages since. Moving plctures, coloured lights on a world map and sound effects will give, an idea of compara- tive speed. The display has been designed by Raymand Loewy, once a French army officer, who is, known as a plonber among industrial dreamers. The exhibit will be in the Motor Transportation building, and will occupy⋅ 10,000 square feet floor space. Increasing speed will be apparent throughout the exhibit, as scenes chaäge from camels to sailboats, steam and 'oventually to modern transportation. As a climax, the rocket port of the future, shown in the drawing above, will spring into action. From the steamship docks, passengers will be whisked into a rocket car which, in brilliant und explosive flash, will seem to travel up- ward to the illuminated planets in the ceiling.

Streamlined models of the future, which will be on display, are shown above. Top left, high-speed railway train; top right, elght-motored, bird-wing air Hner; right centre, taxicab, with three-wheeled chassis; lower right, ocean liner, fully enclosed and storta-preof; lower left, tear-drop automoble, engine, in rear.
