INVENTORS BESIEGE BUREAU
War Department Hears Of Many
New Aerial TorpedOes.
Emile Berliner, OF This City, Notifies
Laboratory TO Begin Work
on Unique Machine.

The War Department is being besieged
by inventors OF aerial torpedoes, the com
plement OF the aeroplanes in warfare. The
inventors are both foreign and domestic.
They are given patient audience by the
war officers The strategists in the de-
partment realize that the aerial torpedo
is a logical sequence Of the aeropiane in
warfare. The class Of inventors who
have taken up the idea Of the aerial tor
pedo is Of a character that gives promise
OF the best results.
Emile Berliner. OF Washington. a we'll
known inventor. is one Of the designers
OF an aerial torpedo. A former empIoye
OF the Krupps in Germany has another.
Mr.. Berliner is now in Europe but he
cabled 70 his laboratory in Washington
yesterday 70 begin the construction OF a
torpedo along lines Of novelty and orig
inality claimed in his invention
The Berlner invention is evolved from
the present fish torpedo into a winged
engine Of destruction. The transfOrma-
ton is effected by the addition OF small
aerOplanes and by changing the marine
propellers into aerial propeIlers. The ma
chine viii be provided with horizontal
motors or specially designed horoscopes
for keeping II on level
An attack by such "a torpedo would be
directed at the upper part OF ship. A
small aeroplane. Mr.. Berlinger says, win
float the torpedo. II could carry a charge
Of cordite ranging from 80 TO 80 pounds.
a ship could not move fast enough 10
escape its attack. he says. The ONLY. pro-
lection would be rapid fire guns and Il is
not thought these could riddle many OF
the planes effectively
The superiority claimed for the aerial
torpedoes over shot and she'll lies IN the
fact that they would not require unwieldy
guns for their projection, and that Their
aim would be more accurate.
The cost OF construction would be so
small that several thousand could be
built for the amount that covers the cost
OF a battle ship. A speed OF 100 miles
an hour is promised.
