PUZZLES OF THE AIR
4IRSHIPS And Law.
Germany Discussing Problems
That Nag Soon arise.

Consul Thomas H. Norton, at Chemnitz
writes that the prospective Importance of
aerial navigation is rapidly reaching such
a degree of assurance in Germany that
many heads are now busy over the prob
lens which will inevitably arise when air.
ships enter into everyday life.
Lawyers are already discussing the legal
questions involved in journeying over the
property of others. Customs officials are
exercised over the dilemmas to which they
will be subjected in guarding the frontier
Special attention is directed to the prob
lem of how aeronauts are to determine
their location al night or in a fog.
An ingenious engineer has proposed for
the convenience of those travelling at night
complete network of signal lights. which
VIII enable any aeronaut at some little
distance above the earths surface to de-
termlne his location with considerable pre-
cls1on. To such special signal lights. natu-
rally, signals by bell or siren can be added,
to be used in case of fog
Dr. Bidlingmaier of the Imperial Oh
serNatory at Wilhelmshaven, has, however,
proposed simple adjunct for the equip
ment OF the aeronaut, which will enable
him TO locate his position with some meas
ure of accuracy without the use of eve or
=.
The instrument in question is the so-called
duplex compass devised by DR.. Bidling
maier, and used by him lately during the
explorations of the German. Antarctic ex-
pedition.
This apparatus is a delicate indicator of
the horizontal intensity of the earth s
magnetism at any point. When used to
cbserve star or constellation, it gives the
approximate longitude of a place while
directly it indicates latitude with an ac-
cUracy ranging between three and six
miles.
One pronounced advantage of the duplex
compass over the ordinary compass for use
in balloon is the fact that il Is totally
unaffected by the whirling motions so COM
mon to balloon driven before the wind
which render observations with the simple
needle most puzzling and difficult Other
motions of a balloon are likewise without
effect. The only condition requisite for the
satisfactory working of the duplex COM
lass on an aerial journey is the absence OF
iron in the immediate neighborhood.
An observation requires less than two
minutes. 1t furnishes at once the data for
determining the latitude. and If the sky
permits. the data also for determining the
longitude. AS a general rule a knowledge
of his latitude will enable an aeronaut 20
determine fairly well his location.
Naturally, such an instrument would
have great value upon seagoing vessel.
and carried no iron. Such conditions on
ordinary marine craft are necessarily out
of the question. They are, however. easily
attained in the construction Of Z balloon.
and probably would. not present serious
difficulties in connection with the building
of aeroplanes.

ILL three knew the desperate
ia chance they were taking, and
H they spoke little as they
90 made their way out into the
straits. Their craft was strange to
them, and the positions they were
forced to occupy soon brought on
cramped muscles. The bidarka is a
frail. narrow framework over which is
stretched walrus skin. and it is so
fashioned that the crew sits, one be-
hind the other. in circular openings
with legs straight out in front.
Gradually. imperceptibly, the noun

consequence. They ate frequently,
food being the great fuel Of the north.

Pacific, straight into their teeth, fore

In the hope that it would die down

1t was nearly noon of the following
day when the Waterman at the Uyak
cannery beheld native canoe creep

1shed to find 1t manned by three white
men in the last stages Of exhaustion.
One of them. in fact, was unconscious
and had to be carried to the house.
