SETBACK FOR AER0NAuTICS
EFFECT OF ACTION OF HOUSE
APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE.
Desire Of the War Department ia
Follow Course Of Foreign
Military Establishment.

Ballooning in America has received a
decided setback. according to officials OF
the War Department. as the result Of the
refusal Of the House committee on APP
preparations to set aside asliberal sum
for military aeronautics.
The Signal Corps desired at least $780,
600 for the new branch Of the service. as
surance being given that the dirigible
balloon was beyond the experimental
stage and was an instrument Of much
use in time of war as "a component part
of the equipment Of any we'll regulated
army" 1t was pointed out that France
has three dirigibles and Germany four.
while the Italian army is in a measure
equipped with them. and reports are that
| the Russian army is adding them to its
equipment.
The plan was to have this government
obtain a number Of medium-siz bal
looms such as the one acquired last sum-
mer.
When Gen. Allen, chief signal officer.
was before the committee he was; ques-
toned as to the possibility of firing at
balloons with mortars. 1T is not be-
lieved that you are going to fight bal
LOOM said the general, with nothing
except a balloon. You cannot shoot a
balloon down with guns, because 1t has a
horizontal and vertical motion. and no.
| body can hit 1t. 1t is almost impossible
to find a balloon at a thousand feet, even
on moonlight night.
I'VE do not believe that the aeroplane
will ever take the pace Of the dirigible
balloon" he continued. Experience
shows that the aeroplane will carry only
a very light burden not to exceed two or
three men. and the minute you commence
to carry any load you must put on the
gas bag. 1t seems hardly possible that
aeroplanes are going up to the height
that dirigible balloon goes"

Second Veto Message Does Not Con
vince House Committee,

Even second veto message has not
convinced members of the House commit
tee on interstate and foreign commerce
of the entire wisdom of the President S
views on the granting of dam privileges
on waters under the control of the United
States. and a result it is almost Ger
tain that there will be no remedial legis-
lation at this Congress.
The main point of difference between
members of Congress and the executive
arises out OF the Presidents proposal to
tax the party constructing the dam for
that privilege. While the committee
seems willing 10 agree to a license fee. 1t
lfesitates 10 concede to the desra bility
and the constitutionality of an annual
tax upon the use of the waters.
A comprehensive correspondence is now
being carried on between the committee
and the Department of the Interior on
these points. the main object being to
reach determination as TO the consti-
tionalty of the proposed tax. The i'm
portance of this question is regarded as
so great to the business interests of the
country and members of the House want
to- be so sure of their course that IL is be-
lieved the question will go TO the next
