problems are arising, such as the

determined signal at regular inter
walls. which would be received by the
air craft. and enable the aeronaut to
determine his course. The airships
would not be required to carry trans

Ing apparatus would sufice to enable
them to avail themselves of this pro-
posed system. and the weight of the
receiving device could easily be kept
down to q few pounds.
