HANGARS ON FLOATS
Army Solves the Scheme for
HydropIane Flying.
PONTOONS ALREADY BUILT
First Experiment May Be in Florida
During the Winter-Wood and
Stimson May Fly.

| The army has decided on a step of con-
| siderable interest in connection with hy
| droplane flying. Any question of the erec
| ton of permanent hangers at the Wash
/ ington barracks for hydro-aeroplane work
| has beer solved by new scheme. The
| army is to have built q floating hangar,
! 1l5 feet long and a little more than ~
| feet broad, that can lie towed behind
/ tug and anchored at any point on the
/ Potomac. or at any point on the coast
! where flying is desirable. This would
/ give many of the coast artillery points a
| chance to see aeroplanes in action and
| to figure what they would have to cope
| with and what practical assistance such
| allies would give them in case of actual
| war.
The work at the Washington barracks
1 is being assisted by the interest taken in
| War College. The con- manding officer of
! the Washington barracks and Maj. Bar
! ton and Capt. Otwells company of enSi-
| neerS helping in the work of making
/ q wharf and landing Place for the hydro
aeroplanes when they are placed in COM
| mission.
Pontoons at College Park.
Pontoons are now at College Park for
| two water machines. and the plan is to
| ny them one at a time from the park to
| the barracks. where shey will be con-
| verted for water flying.
| 1t will be some months before the new
| floating hangar can be bullt. and ii will
| in all proba bility be after the cold wealth
| er sets in before 1t is available for use.
J In this case it probably will be taken first
| to Palm Beach some other Florida
| coast point for winter work, and the land
| machines will be sent for their winter
| via in no
| further south than the winter camp was
| last year at Augusta. Here there was too
1 much snow and cold weather for effective
| work.
The introduction of hydro-aeroplaning
into the army work probably will result
| in splitting the exercises Of the detail
at College Park. The present plan is to
have the land flights there in the morn
! ing and the water flights at the Wash
| ington barracks in the afternoon.
Gen. Wood May Take Flight.
| 1t has been generally reported that
Gen. Leonard Wood. the chief Of staff.
intended to show his interest in the de-
/ velopment of aviation by taking flight
either at College Park or the new station
at Washington barracks when the lat
| ter gets to working. 1t was stated at
the War Department today that Gen
/ Wood had not yet fixed any date Tor
| that Secretary of War Stimson, who Is
an expert horseman. Is also interested
| in the development of army aviation and
has said he intended to take flight
| when he returned to Washington. 1t
! will be somewhat of a race. therefore, to
1 see which beats the other to It.
There has been some question Of send
/ ing some aeroplanes to the Mexican bor-
der to help out the border patrol. Moth
| ing official has been done in that line
4 and orders were given today to ship the
| one machine at San Antonio back to
Washington, where II Is to be used for
| instruction at the aviation school.
