Surely our Congress stands confronting a serious

Possibly Congress may fail to grant ade

FLYING FOR PLEASURE.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: In an interview published in The Tribune
on Sunday. Lord Kelvin is reported as saying In
effect that system of ballooning can ever be
Of practical use, and that the day when flying
machines will navigate the air is a long way on
Lord helvin's standing scientist gives the
weight of authority TO any opinion he may eX-
press regarding actual scientific attainments: but
when he the realm of prophecy df he be
correctly reported II is possible that he may there
lack the essential qualifcat ton, inspiration
Aerial navigation is certainly in the air; the
brains of many inventors. judging from the re-
ports which appear from time to time in the
newspapers are busy endeavoring to solve the
problem. Out of al these efforts it is possible that
some one may find scientific solution. NJ. San
tos-Dumont may have accomplished little practf-
caly. His own aiTshfp may have little real VaIue
Yet he has done much 10 arouse PUBIC interest
in the question, and this public interest may de-

ventors who have practical ideas, which encour-

to light some practical plan for an airship that

In England France and Germany aerial clubs
have been formed which give moral and financial

behind in this respect II is true that the St
Louis Exposition proposes to offer large prizes 10
be competed for. But TO compete for such prizes
means that the inventors must first build, and to
build an airship means money, which is just what
the average inventor Of advanced ideas generally
lacks.
Why cannot an aerial club be started here? In
this city there must be many who interested
in the subject who would gladly lend their sup
port. Such club II organized under proper lead
ership might be the means Of bringing to light
really practical solution OF the problem.

[Athough Lord Kelvin merely stated con-
clusons, not premises it is not unlikely that he
perceives fundamental difficulties In the way Of
aerial navigation, to which most inventors re-
main blind, or. Of which at least. they are only
dimly conscious. Some of these are inherent in
the medium in which the flying machine peo-
pie propose to conduct their operations. How
ever there is no reason why Aerial and those
who sympathize with him should not form a
club for sport and experiment.
