by L.H. Morrow
"HERE is one of the most extraordinary air stories that we have read in a long while. It is sure to arouse your wonder and excitement.
One of the important and most revolutionary inventions, which is sure to come about sooner or later, is the control of gravitation. When we have conquered gravitation, man will be set free in earnest.
The slavery of weight, which chains us to this planet and to the ground, is far more serious than we appreciate, simply because we have always been “earthbound". But, sooner or later, it will be possible to bring about such conditions as our author describes so vividly in this excellent short story. When it does, aviation will be helped tremendously, and indeed the conditions of our entire world will be revolutionized literally."
