CAPTAIN Paul w. Beck, one of Uncle

ticabiuty and usefulness OF aeroplane
photography. map making and bomb drop
ming. He said: ITO begin with. there are
| two general uses to which an aeroplane
can be put from a military standpoint
Its principal use. of course, is I'm the gain
! ing and transmission of information. its
second use is for aggressive purposes.
Under the head Of gaining and trans
| hitting information we must determine
the powers and limitations of the aero
plane reconnaissance. Right here we are
M against the first obstacle. To get IN
formation accurately we must ny low. hui
! If we fly low we are I'm danger from be-
| low. therefore we have to conduct our eX-
| periments at such height az viii render
the aero and its pilot and passenger al
least as safe from hostile firing as they
would be il they were on the hring line
This height has been generally taken to
be about three thousand feet The height
is based on the fact that the present mill
tary rife is effective at height of not ex
ceeding thirty-two hundred and NIFTY feet
Now, for the gaining of information We
have TO rely on the use of Held glasses
sketohing and photography We have no
vet finally determined whether or not thu
aero will lie sufficiently effective by usins
