Brilliant searchlights would radiate from them, and to them would swoop ocean-crossing aircraft, heavy-laden with freight and passengers. In the seadromes' vitals, which would extend so far down into the deep ocean that no wave-motion would be noticed by the most squeamish visitor, would be fuel and food supplies, machine shops and the foundations of hotels where ocean travelers could rest en route between Atlantic City, N.
