HUGE SUM FOR AVIATION.
Nearly S5,ooO,OOO Is Asked for
from the French People.


from the French People.
Paris. Feb. IT.-Following on the initia-
tive taken by II. MiHerand, who, after
consultation with the leading officers OF
the staff and the directors of his de-
partment decided to ask Parliament for
nearly $5,OOO.OOO to be devoted to military
aviation. NJ. DeIcasse, minister Of ma
rine. is now seeing what can be done for
the organization OF a service of naval
aviation. Capt Daveiuy has, in conform
ity with his instructions, devoted several
weeks to the drawing up Of an elaborate
jlan and the heads OF the central naval
administration, under the presidency OF
the chief OF the general staff Of the navy
for the purpose Of examining this
scheme.
1t is pointed out that while several
either navies have already devoted spe-
cial attention to aviation. IT has been
somewhat neglected in France, and it is
argued that no time is to be lost, the
more so as "eclaireurs" are not included
in the naval programme which has been
submitted to the chamber, so that if
sQuadrons Of battle ships are not to be
absolutely blind. they must be provided
with groups OF aeropIanes. As a matter
OF fact, Capt Dayeluy, calculates that
a good deal can be done at the modest
expenditure of S200,O 900, and no doubt Is
entertained that this sum Will be voted
by Parliament without the faintest op-
position or criticism.
