RUMANIANS BUY AIR SAFETY DEVICE
HANDLEY PAGE SLOTTED WING (British Official Wireless) (Received September 16, 6.30 p.m.) RUGBY, September 15. Rumania is the latest country to acquire, for a considerable cash payment, the patents of rights to use the British safety air device, the Handley Page slotted wing. The other nations concerned are Britain, Sweden, United States, India, New Zealand, Finland and Japan. Adopted originally in the interests of safer flying, the slotted wing is nowadays equally important as a means of augmenting the speed and range of the modern heavily loaded, high performance aeroplane.
