AVIATION SCHOOL
NEEDS OFFICERS TO
LEARN HOW TO FLY
Signal Corps Handicapped
by Shortage in Men of
Higher Rank.

Owing to q scarcity Of officers, the
Signal Corps OF the War Department
cannot detail as many men at the army
aviation school as II would like, and
consequently the work there is very
heavy on Capt. Charles Def. Chandler
and his men.
The Signal Corps has about $4,000
left out OF an appropriation of Sl2S. .000
ana with this amount Of money can
purchase number Of new aeroplanes,
but owing to the inability to get COM
missioned officers to do the work at
College Park. It Is almost useless TO
make additions to the equipment.
However, there soon will be a meet
ing of the advisory board OF the Signal
Corps, and a strong effort will be made
by them to get q couple OF officers to
help out Captain Chandler and his men.
The board is composed Of Col. George
p Scrtven. and Majors George o.
SQuier and Charles McKinlet Salzman.
Want to Be Aviators.
Over zoe applications have been made
to the Signal Corps from officers In
other divisions of the army to learn
aviation, but the Signal Corps cannot
use them unless the War Department
officers that the War Department will
commission out of civilian ranks at
least 100 lieutenants. These men will
be assigned 10 different branches of the
army, and then it will be pos
able to get couple Of officers for the
aviation school rolls.
The Signal Corps officials are anxious
10 make rapid strides in aviation, and
are going to push the project as much
as possible. At one time ii was Thought
that 1t would be necessary TO employ
professional aviators to help carry on
the work, but this idea was given up
because 1t would be entirely too ex-
penslVe to the Government, due to the
TACT that in order to secure profess
sional aviators high salaries would have
TO be paid them. Then for awhile the
loea OF teaching enlisted men was dis
cussed, but after some hard thought the
conclusion was reached that a private
would no sooner learn how to fly than
he would buy his release from the army
at $l3 and go with some private com |
pany, thus depriving the Government of |
his services after teaching him how to |

Fleet Of Aeroplanes
At College Park To
Be Greatly Enlarged

In preparation for additional aero
planes at the army aviation school at
College Park, two new hangers are be-
ing erected on the northern end of the
field
At present there are but four Gov
ernment machines at College Park,
but within the next eight months this
number will be increased to over twice
that many.
With the return of Gen. James Allen
from his vacation in Atlantic City, to
his office at the War Department, an
announcement of the purchase of add
tional machines for the army's use is
expected. While no official order has
yet been made, it IS more than probable
that the next flying machine to be added
to the Government equipment will be
double-control Curtiss biplane, capable
of flying Seventy-five miles an hour
in the teeth of a strong wind and 100
miles an hour with the wind behind it.
There are two Curtis machines at Col
lege Park now. but one of them is
more or less for experimental purposes
and will be used mainly for teaching
young officers how to fly. But the new
double-control Curtiss biplane will be
the fastest machine ever seen at College
Park. in fact IT will be almost twice
as speedy as any one machine.
Other hangers will be erected next
spring. Those now being constructed
are for those machines that will be
purchased before winter.

KAISER'S HOUSES NUMBER MORE
 THAN THREE SCORE.

The number of the kaiser's palaces is largely due to the fact that the Prussian monarchy has absorbed many minor German states. including the kingdom of Hanover, the duchy of Nassau and the electorate of Hes se-CasseI. All the palaces and cas- ties of the rulers of these states thus passed into the possession of the regning house of Prussia, as it was considered injudiciOus either to de- stroy or sell them for fear of impair ing the popularity of Hohenzollern rule Thus it is that the emperor is burdened with the possession of more than threescore residences, some of which he has never even seen, and many of which are totally unsuited for royal habitation. Although their maintenance entails a heavy drain upon his eXchequer. they cannot. for political reasons. be either sold or eased.-Munsey's Magazine.
