WARFARE OF THE FUTURE.

Hudson Maxim believes that the
aeroplane, the .heavy battleship and
the submarine will be the most potent
factors in the warfare of the future.
He says:
II would be an easy matter to build
in few months enough aeroplanes to
transport 100000 armed men into an
enemy's country. Already machines
have carried as many as four passen-
gers with ease. We could land a for
midable army Of raiders upon an ene-
my from the very skies and quickly
accomplish irreparable destruction.
He does not believe that the drop
ping Of explosives from airships win
be as great a factor as the use of air
ships for transportation, and is con-
vinced that in practice it will be found
less effective than is popularity imag-
ned.
The warfare Of the future. he is con-
'inced will be enormously expensive,
md for this reason he has no fear
'f Japan at present engaging in war.
,or he feels sure that she does not
command the requisite financial
means That is the general opinion re-
'arding Japan. If she were able To
.ccumulate pecuniary resources ade-
uatc to enable her to undertake war
N a grand scale with the most scien-
INC current equipment she would be
