Glenn Il. Curtiss Says the Sky Will Be Full
of Flying Machines Going 100 Miles

New York. May 31.-The Curtiss

"All the great battles or the future
will be fought In the air" declared
Curtiss.
Army men are not so certain as TO
the usefulness OF the aeroplane In
time OF war. Most OF the officers sta
toned at Governors Island, while
willing to admit that the aeroplane
would be invaluable for scouting pur-
poses, are skeptical as 10 its value in
offensive warfare
In the opinion Of Brigadier General
Walter Howe. commanding the depart.
ment OF the east. the aeroplane could
not be dangerous factor In a hostile
attack on New York Flying low,
shrapuel would get It," he said. while
flying high its bombs could do no
harm.
I'VE have made some experiments
with balloons. and have found that
shrapnel can wreck them at certain
ranges. What results would be OBJ
tanned were aeroplanes used is an
other question II they we're operated
as high and as fast as CuiS.ss new.
il is probable that nothing at all
would happen To the aeroplane' ana IL
the aeroplane tried TO hurt us at It's
dizzy altitude. we would probably eS-
cape unhurt too.
Curtiss. in long statement given
ont here today. pictures the aeroplane
as a war menace, and discusses tne
possibility of the destruction OF New

bardment from a fleet of aeroplanes.
